I agree...I tend to move at a slower pace anyway, so the longer processing breaks don't bother me as much as it might others. For me, the fun in FM is to be methodical in each and every decision I make. I also like a large, realistic (as much as can be allowed) and immersive game world. I have every league loaded on full detail (all leagues are playable) with a large database. It's about 210K players this year with the new J-Leagues. I don't mess with any of the custom/advanced player databases as I hope/feel what I have will be sufficiently realistic and a good number of players vs leagues. It's a lot I know, but like I said, I can tolerate a slower moving game more so than others. That's the trade-off for realism I suppose.
