Also I think a lot of the GM/Manager debate becomes a realism vs. enjoyment debate. Some might find the realism very enjoyable. I am one of those people. Playing as a GM only is A LOT more fun than I expected. Taking on the GM/Manager role, however, is not that realistic to me. When was the last time that happened in the majors? The work load (it would seem) is just WAY too much. In the game though the balance is very easy to achieve.

That said, I always liked just having a manager "there" for the storyline side of things.. hiring on the staff etc.. while totally immersing myself in every decision made for my franchise. That developed over the years to what the coaching system became up to OOTP15 and what it has turned into today.

I guess what my point is, I feel like the options for the role you take should be:

GM Only
Manager Only
GM/Manager
Traditional OOTP - for those who want that experience that they have had year after year but against a more difficult AI.

That said, AMAZING job, folks.. Just when I thought the game could not get any better...
