I play SoD and don't play WoT not because of any benefit, but because I simply don't like WoT, and on the contrary, I prefer SoD. You know all the differences between WoT and SoD better than anyone, so take them all together and write them on the forum; it will be a long list that changes the game.

As far as I know, those who have learned the intricacies of WoT haven't spoken badly about it afterward; quite the opposite. Dubrovin is a prime example. He used to insist more than you did that WoT was not for him.

And as for the list, I don't know. Otherwise, it will turn out like in the joke: "Two Jews meet:
— I heard the Beatles, and I didn't like them. They slur their words, sing off-key... What do people like about them?!
— Where did you hear them?
— Moishe sang them to me..."

Someone will bother to list all the delights of WoT, and in the end, due to the difficulty of perception, it will turn into Moishe's song. But you need to listen to the Beatles in the original, and not just once, so that you have the opportunity to appreciate them.
Why am I writing this to you? It's an old story; I'm not the first to tell you that you should try it first and then say whether it's good or not.
