OOTP16 First ever DLC: Inside the Park Baseball

Would love to see a revamped version of ITP that sells as DLC for OOTP16.

Isn't it about time this is tried again? It will soon be 11 years now.

Having this as DLC would be excellent to allow you to play as a Manager for one user, then switch your user (like you would if you had multiple Managers) to your player to control him. The power to switch back and forth from your Manager(s) to Player(s) would give you plenty to do even if you didn't want to micromanage your player completely...this was the mistake of it years ago I believe. It's fun controlling a player while you still have the option to be a GM...to me micromanaging a player all by itself is not all that fun.

I think there might be some interest in this once again with some of the new users looking for something fresh. Of course many of the diehards wouldn't care for this as they didn't 11 years ago. The mistake was not having it completely intertwined with the OOTP game itself.

Thoughts?

I've wondered why it wasn't a game mode within OOTP. It made for an interesting change of pace.

I'd like to see it implemented for sure. Being able to create a player and see what I can do with him would be awesome. But I'd want more story behind it than just training to jack up his stats and becoming a sure fire HOF'er by the time the third season is over.
