i, too, prefer to play with real players. i learned the hard way about assuming in ootp baseball. i don't want to invest the time of playing out 20-30 years and realize an issue, and i don't want some arbitrary function masking problems with statistical output (see: "auto calc league total modifiers for statistical accuracy" in ootp baseball). i can't justify spending my money on that. each to their own, if it isn't important to them.
Well the first batch of players seem to have better all round ratings. After a few decades such players become rare; even the players scoring the most points usually have at least one weak area in ratings like speed, acceleration, strength or some technical skill. I wouldn't say it looks bad, but it seems to be of enough influence for the fictional players to be noticably inferior to the starting batch of real players so there is room for improvement. Or maybe the real players are just a little overrated.
