Great game, I put it on the backburner for a while simply due to the sheer volume of games that came out since October.
I know I'll be playing all year.
A big patch is due which will balance a few things though I've not found anything game breaking, it was a relatively good launch.
I don't really get the 'too realistic' thing, it's a video game. Real life is what makes me sad these days, this is an escape from that.
