Since they are immersed in real baseball, I would think writers would gravitate more toward games that aim to replicate real baseball than ones that concentrate more on fictional baseball worlds. OOTP is not the best tool for pitting classic teams against one another or capturing the feel of using past players. While it can do these things, Strat-O-Matic, Diamond Mind, and others do it better. OOTP is more of a "fictional" game, even in its historical mode.
