I agree, there's far too many here that are ranting and complaing and are the sort that cant be satisfied.
Frankly im having a fine time with it and totally in awe at how well they have simulated the sea in this one. Now im going from SH3 straight to SH5 here having passed up SH4 so I have no other reference. So what I see is what I always wanted form SH3, the boat in it's entirety and to be able to explore it throughout both inside and out.

As far as issues, the only thing so far is the lack of a compass dial to steer by and of course to know what heading im on at anygiven momment. But these and many other little things will be fixed in time, and there are mods availible to fix some.

And no there has never been one piece of software ever written that was released in a finished state. Yes even the OS your computer runs on, need constantly updated and patched for the entirety of it's lifetime.
Thats the software world, and has been this way always.

Fankly I think it's what one's own expectations are, and for far too many it's too high and no software engineer can cope with that.
