When you say 'simulator' in bold in a place like SubSim, one may immediately assume that you are talking about hardcore simulation. However, this is little more than semantics. If you noticed I said that I did not consider the Silent Hunter series to be a hardcore simulation series. I did not call it a 'game'.
