I prefer the ASCII for a few reasons.
Firstly, I rather like the way it looks. ASCII is an artform if you do it right.
Secondly, having to read the alphabet soup doesn't bother me in the least. Though I do need to change my tileset for something square instead of rectangular.
Thirdly, I put fucking hours into being able to read this matrix, I'm not going to re-learn it.
