I assume you don't really want to hear the obvious answer.... But you are right on the mark. The times that I switched to a new game (and usually had to buy a new computer as well) for a new graphics engine are long over. I don't expect hyper-photorealism -- it is still a game. So it needs to have features and content that make it fun, maybe even teach me a thing or two about history, technics etc, and an AI that gives my brain something to agonize about.
For SHV, that still would be the wolfpacks, which were the last major detail missing in SHIII to really recreate a historical WW2 in the Atlantic. Other than that, I would rather invest my $$ into something new, other than "another very similar" submarine simulation.
