I play Puresim managing each and every game only and I've played close to 2 seasons using fictional players. I never sim out any game for the team I am controlling. Your decisions definitely will have an imapct on the outcomes of your games. You will have the managerial options like steal, hit and run, infield in, guard the lines, play the outfield deep, play the infield in, pitch around a batter, intentionally walks, etc... I enjoy each game and I end up really getting into them. A lot of times I will start to get the "just one more game" syndrome. I'm not big on playing franchises either but Puresim's was easy enough and fun enough where I decided to continue my team on for another season. After getting knocked out of the playoffs in the first round I just had to continue on because I knew the team I assembled could go deeper. You really don't get overwhelmed with information and have to micro manage in the offseason like you do in other games. It seems just right. Another big plus for Puresim is the user community and user mods. If you download some facepacks and stadium packs it will really add to the experience. I've played a couple of other baseball sims and they all have their positives and negatives but I keep coming back to Puresim and play it by far the most.
