I feel something like this. I prefer the old version and I'm cherishing my final games here. I don't think I will make the jump over. The added features feel like a subtraction for me, but I'm an unusual player I think. I never played the table game and have no interest (or any in board/table game.) Blue Max IS a table game though and it seems very right that it is being developed back in that direction. I hope that it will connect with that larger community.

It's been such a long time. My son was born around the time I started and now he's graduated college and has started a career. It's an unexpected thing to have a simple game like this stick with you for so long. Huge credit and thanks to the designer and the folks that came after, who appreciated the value and kept investing time and energy.
