And not just in my VIIB..

I tend to really attach myself to a game, play it intensely (as well as one can with a job and a kid and such), often getting into the subject enough to get books and rent movies about the subject. It's happened for Motor City: Online (I was a beta tester), Star Wars: Galaxies, B17: The Mighty Eighth, America's Army: Online (where I was a beta tester and forum moderator). SimGolf. MVP2004 (baseball). Madden 2004. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and San Andreas...

This game is lasting me a while so far, the mods do help keep things alive. At least the interest...several of my uBoats litter the Atlantic floor at the moment

Sad as it sounds, this game too will have its day. I never thought I'd stop playing some of these games.

I *will* say this is the first subsim that I ever 'got', that I understand tactics a heck of a lot better than I ever did with most other sub sims I've ever tried. Closest before that was Aces of the Deep. About which I must say, I liked sailing into port and seeing the flags for merchant and warships on the line between the bow and conning tower. Why can't this be done?
