To be honest, no. Crew interaction would be the last on my list considering the other aspects of the game that were left out (See RR's list above). To me it is a simulation of tactics and the weapons of the time. Not a game to take care of shaking pixel people. I'm completely satisfied with what SH4 has concerning a crewman on the crew screen interface with a shade of pink is enough for me to realize he is ill'in. So he goes to the medic. Done deal. I do not want to spend my time starting the conversation with, "Look son.....". Tracking, tactics and sinking ships
That is what it is about for me. If you want to influence your crew...avoid depth charges and attacking aircraft! They will love you for it.
