Long time fan, just wanted to give a personal perspective that may be shared with others in hope that one day my love of OOTP can be renewed with a different version of the game. I started with OOTP on the desktop back in 2005. Quickly got addicted and when MLB Manager came out it provided the quick fix I needed as I was going throughout my day / waiting at the doctor's office, bored at work, etc.. As I have grown into my 30's with kids I do not have time for desktop games and maybe have 20 - 30 minutes a day where I can play around on the phone. When OOTP Go came out it was fine and I would gladly pay the $5 a year for updated rosters and be able to draft a team and make roster decisions and look at box scores. The in game decisions were fun and contributed to the entertainment of the game. However, recently there seems to be more and more being added to the game that I find unnecessary (I could not even play it for two years because it kept crashing on my old phone). I do not need 3D or fancy graphics. All I want is something simple to hop on for about 10 minutes at a time where I can draft, set lineups, roster manage, make some simple in-game decisions and view box scores trying to win as many championships as possible. I wouldn't mind paying the $5 a year for a version of this game. As it stands, I can't work up the muster to pay $10 for a complex version that this seems to be, especially with the star reviews at 2.5 currently. I wish you the best and will be monitoring the OOTP universe for future endeavors.
