I get what you're saying. I have wondered the same thing. I'd also welcome more threads with honest, balanced discussions comparing DCL to other lines. I'm not seeing that. I'm afraid to post on some of these threads since it turns into a debate instead of an open discussion. I'm definitely interested in other people's opinions, as long as I don't have to agree with them.
I love DL and WDW. Others like US just as much. Some of friends even prefer it. So we went in, all excited to see the HP stuff, with very open minds. It's a one and done for us. Nothing wrong with it, just not for me.
When I look at videos of other lines, much of what I see just doesn't appeal to me. Rock wall? 5K people? Go carts? Casinos? Just not what I'm looking for. I know people who love this stuff. I do think if you watch a bunch of videos you can begin to get a feel for different lines and ships. So far the only one that looks like an even better fit than DCL for my family is Viking Ocean. Since the prices are far, far beyond DCL for those cruises I'm sticking with DCL for the time being. When we are down to only 2 of us traveling I think that's where I'll be looking.
My point is that we're all different. What makes us happy is different. And that's ok. And it should be ok to take the vacation that makes us happy.
