Dangerous Waters has more the feel of a military simulator with it's graphics. They made it look like the real naval training sims at the time looked.
Besides. The focus of the game is a naval simulation where you're looking at the various stations (which I think are rendered beautifully). Not on the eye candy on the outside.

No no, 688 Fast Attack was released some years prior to DW, and even considering the limitations of the time it had 2d stations much more realistic than what we have in DW.
Nobody was asking for DW to sports a SH3-like engine, but for pete's sake will you at least not recycle a 10 year old graphics engine ?
Or if push comes to shove at least update the critical parts such as throwing the 16 bit color out the window and use instead 24-32 bit color. They went cheap, real cheap on the graphics, even on the fonts !!!!
Really have a look at Sub Command, the fonts on the interface of the game (not the 2d stations) are much more polished than what we have in DW.
