opinions vary and I loved playing OOTP back in the v2-v6 days. truly great games.

I know that when 2006 first game out, I hated the interface and went back to 6.5. But as the patches came out and I got to know the interface I came to love it. So much in fact I prefer it over all the other games I play. I would kill for an FOF game with the SI style interface.

I am not saying YOU should prefer the new interface, simply that I do.

Also worth nothing - clearly Markus (and really all of us) can't please everyone no matter what decision he makes - so he should continue down the path that he thinks is best.

There are many things I love about OOTP and many things I would change - but in the end, it is still the gold standard for me and closer to what I look for in a game than any other I have ever owned in any genre.
