After getting used to the speed and the pace of the old sim, I have to say that the new sim that's been brought in this season took me a bit of time to get used to. Before, plays were going by lightning quick, and half the time you couldn't even see what was going on, so you just had to look at the play-by-play text. Now though, we can actually see and understand what's going on. We can see the ball as it gets thrown in the air, and we can actually follow the ball-carrier with our eyes. Though it is a lot slower and takes a lot longer to watch, I think this new sim is great for the league. As someone who tends to watch the games instead of just looking at the scores, this is a far more enjoyable watch and something that I definitely support. Visually, it also does look like a big improvement. The visual effects such as the punting and the kick return add a nice touch and even the scores look nicer. Though some might not enjoy that the games will last a lot longer than in previous seasons, I think that the new sim is a very welcome improvement.
