Default Boring is a relative term

The great thing about these sims is that they are that realistic that you can get bored. That too is realistic. The real submariners spent weeks sailing without spotting another ship.

I agree with the statement quoted except that SH5 has the potential to be good, but it isn't yet so. The modders, as with the previous versions, are going to continue to make it better.

If you are playing a sub sim without the boring part, you are playing an arcade game. Turn on the gramophone and listen to tunes. Pour water over your head for realism. Put a fan on your face for sea breeze. Stick a pail of diesel fuel in the corner of the room for sensory effect. Close all the windows and blinds and live in electric light, red at night.

See, there are things you can do.
