15 years is a long time. I've been buying since OOTP 4 and one thing I try to keep perspective on is everything the game is today didn't happen in one or two versions. It's a combination of the 15 years of programming and development put into the game.

When I think of the year OOTP changed its interface (for the better, though at the time many many people hated it), I wonder, how much has the game really done since then?

But when I review my online leagues, the new rules we've implemented because of additions / changes to the game, the new activities I have access to (i.e., international free agents, player opt outs, even something as little as rehab assignments), I realize how much has happened over the years.

Year to year it looks insignificant. In combination it's enormous.
