My personal opinion,
After seeing the videos posted , i think the majorit will buy SH5, and all the grandstanding on SH5 will tend up being alot of hot air. SH5 looks like its going to be Das boot the video game. People on subsim tend to focus on the uboat romance and "these poor men" who are the underdog's that they like to root for. They won't be able to resist, because SH5 will deliver exactly what they've been wanting for all these years.
"The Das Boot Experience".
Seriously, how many times have you heard that expression? Seems like alot. The thing is, the culture here, your cool if your hardcore simulation grognard. So i think people will complain about it being gamey to save face or maintain impressions in the community, but end up buying it anyway because it has the experience they've really been looking for.
