But I don't think it's just theater preference. You can do some VERY COOL things for uboats, and hardly anyone will take notice. Sh4 simply doesn't exist to people. *shrug* I'm fine with that I suppose, cause it lets me off the hook for having to support another mod i don't have the energy for anyway I think another part of the reason is things like the UI and peoples natural resistance to change. People i think, tend to want, or stick with what they know, only updated to make it look more pretty. If it's different, or lacks familiaritiy, they're put off.
Yeah, as I've stated elsewhere, I'm nowhere near as familiar with the PTO as I am with the ETO for various reasons... and it's hard to have a preference for something you don't know as much about, and/or to which you don't feel a close personal attachment.

Playing SH4 may change that, if and when I can find time to devote to it. If I really like the game, it may spark a lot more curiosity about elements of the RL history that I never explored before. Anyway I am curious, if only because I know my knowledge is somewhat lacking in that area. So we'll see what happens. And I know any mods that make the game a better experience will be appreciated.
