Deep games are another, third animal altogether. If fish played them, I think they would be great, but they rarely do and then you get to sit around with a bunch of other regs hoping you don't make a 300bb mistake pot controlling 3rd set on a rainbow board against them trying to get the fish's money.

Yeah, I don't think there's one answer for everyone. I wouldn't try to convince anyone to play @ Tilt if they like Stars. I think bumhunting is a necessary skill to have. I call it "table selection", but if you want, I'll admit I'm a proud bumhunter. That doesn't mean I shy away from regs or tough opponents, but I'm not actively looking for them either. A good game revolves around fish imo, not other regs. But, we can agree to disagree on that.

I thought Stars had better games before this change but now I think Tilt does. All things being equal, I love Stars - better software, customer support, more players. But, default 50bb max NL games really killed my boner for them.
