For me, it's the sights and sounds of being at sea. Rolling waves, wind, the sunsets, the moon, and the visuals within the boats too.

I was about to post something like these lines. Aside from the historical aspect (modern sub sims are "what if" scenarios as far as i know) WW2 sims are more fun to me because you have more dimensions to play with. Surfaced, and submerged. For instance, i used to think the Type21 was the coolest sub to play with.... until i acutally played with one. It was utterly boring, because i simply didn't need to surface anymore. It was like one dimension of the game was removed, and i didn't enjoy that much.
