Same here - I want Stern games to feel like and play like BW but they just have a cheap feel to them (Sterns)
Quoted from nocreditdot:I'm the opposite of most of you guys. I have been collecting for close to 20 years. I strongly prefer the WPc games. The rule depth is just right for my liking. On a rare occasion I can make it to the end of AFM or TZ and that feels great. They are tried and true classics. I buy the newer Sterns as well. But I generally flip them after a year or so. I reach a point where I can't get any further in the encyclopedia of rules. At that point the game feels tedious and I don't want to try and play another 25 minutes to reach that point of frustration again. I just stop caring and lose interest. The great thing is I can trade the new sterns for nice WPC classics easily enough.
