I downloaded it and it seems overly complicated....

Literally everyone does this. They buy the game, stare at the interface, and basically say WTF. I didn't touch it for months after I bought it. Keep in mind only the interface is complicated since you already know the ins and outs of the game.
Then I revisited it, and rebuilt the Nats. It took years to win a series even against the CPU. I had playoff heartbreak!
I think it's the best game I've ever played, and I'm in my 30s and generally not impressed by video games anymore. It's worth pushing through.
