Yikes!

re: "Bittervetism", I could be accused of the same. If I try to look at it objectively, I think it's a symptom of just being around anything for a long time. Change is, after all, inevitable.

Perhaps nostalgia has ingrained the "holy wtf" UI/spreadsheet experience of yesteryear into my mind without any updates. I (mistakenly) thought that the game hadn't really strayed from the complexity that made it so niche.

I'm disappointed that something you clearly enjoy has morphed into something else before your eyes (I know the feels). I appreciate your correction because I don't miss MMOs (too much) these days for this specific reason.
