I know the U-boat was considered the best boat at the time by some, but really why does everyone like playing on the ‘Loosing Side’. By the end of 1943 the U-boats were nothing but an Iron Coffin with maybe a 20% chance of getting home again.

IMHO of course.
I'm affraid it's just because you asked the question like that you will still not fully understand the reasons even after dosens of constructive replys. I really can not explain why I'm so into U-boats because it's something that does not fit into simple words to explain. Maybe in my past life I served in the U-boat myself That gives an echo feeling at the present one. Or maybe I was somehow related to Kriegsmarine who knows. It's just this attraction to U-Boats history, passion of interest gives this obsession. I can't speak for others but for me it works exactly like this
