Yes, there is reason.. you can't use awesome TDW's Generic Patcher with the steam version.. any other downloadable version is OK.. boxed version is not required..

Vanilla is unplayable, period. On the other hand there are mods that make SH5 truly outstanding. Despite my minor criticizms I fully support SH5 and everything that's been done for it so far. Considering the price you can easily afford to find out for yourself whether it's what you want.

i'll test vanilla then if needs be mod it to the back teeth and see how she plays.
i've been watching a few lets plays and the interface doesn't look too bad. similar to shIII in some ways.

TheDarkWraith's New UIs mod lets you choose between a variety of interfaces, including one that replicates SH3.

Get a stopwatch out and start it as soon as you start playing the vanilla version of SH5. Post your stop time when you finally had enough of it and decided to mod it

I played through the entire stock SH5 story and I encountered no problems at all.

I even enjoyed the stock version.
