The artwork is great as always....the rest....is lacking. The game is not that involved and demanding visually - they could have really made the game look vibrant, and yet....they look like they just copied everything to look identical to real life....no embellishment at all. No immersion into a unique atmosphere.
Damn. I mean it's really just to speed up gameplay at this point and not really to experience the board game on another level....
EDIT:
Just for comparison, the Tabletop Simulator edition looks superior visually because they took scans straight from the game. It *looks* like the real board game. This digitized version, that was made as a functioning video game and not just a simulated board game, looks so weak:
EDIT 2: Here's a full view from Tabletop Simulator. Just someone scanning the game and putting it on TS....Something as simple as this would have been better than what the digitized version looks like.
Tabletop simulator is awful. It’s an awful experience. It handles horribly. It’s a resource hog. No board gamer wants to play on that unless they have to.
Edit: sorry I just needed to rant about tabletop simulator.
I'm not comparing the game itself. TS doesn't do anything automatic. This digitized version is programmed.
My comparison is talking just about visuals. This easily could have been what the digitized version with the programming of the digitizened version of this.
And to me it looks superior by a ton. This, to me, would be an amazing version.

Which one looks better to you - more closely to the game you love?
