Done!

Any movement on this? I'd love to get back to playing it again.

The new one is awful.

I completely agree.

I can't play the game in its current condition. The graphics are unreadable now. I've tried twice. *sigh*

Terrible -- I can't see where my squares are, my president -- what the challenges are -- we used to enjoy this game but with the last time we played with the new graphics, I am pretty sure we will not return -- way too hard to see anything -- can we please have the option of the old colors? or make these colors more contrasting? anything is better than what it is now

This is my first time playing since the change and I abhor it. I hate hate hate the new art/graphics. I know you will never change back because you probably don't have rights to the TMG art anymore, but this choice is atrocious

It’s the low res quality that’s killing it. Synapses just need to send BGA a good quality image file.

Order cards are so blurry I don’t know if they are worth 3, 5, 6 or 8.

I’ve opened a fresh bug suggestion to improve the image quality. I hope others will like/boost it. https://en.boardgamearena.com/bug?id=181228

I can’t see BGA or Synapses reverting to the older look and feel. So I’m not asking for that, which seems like a pointless exercise.

Coming back to the game after a long break: the new graphics are unplayable.

Basically, what everybody else here has said: the new graphics make it unplayable. Not only are the graphics too washed out to see, the cards used to have the actual name of the building on it, which has now disappeared, so there's no way to work out what's what.

I've upvoted the first of the bug reports people started. For "Castles of Burgundy" you can choose whether you want to play first or new edition. I don't see why that would not be possible here.
