I'm with you. I will always be a downloader by preference. I'll give you two basic reasons:
- As much as I admire, love, and trust OOTPD, too many times in my gaming life have I seen online enterprises suddenly disappear. I will never give up the last downloaded version of OOTPB, should they ever decide to go totally "cloud."
- I NEVER want to be in a position of having to depend on a local utility for anything. It's bad enough that I must use the cable company's service for my interaction here and to acquire OOTPB in the first place. But to rely on them for consistently fast speed without interruption? Yeah, right. When the cable goes down, I can always turn to playing OOTPB (yes, I know about the "calling in" aspect so don't bother to remind me).
Attitudes like this make me a technosaur. So be it. I'm also congratulating myself on not being one of the folks who are willing to pay $1,000 for an iPhone X.
