It's interesting that all those games and sims were less complex than contemporary sims. Most simmers tend to agree that AOTD is the best U-Boat sim ever, but ironically as a simulator it is in fact less complex than SH3 or SH5.

Why is this concept "silly" to you? The consumers should rightfully dictate the direction of the products it is purchasing. This should be especially true in the gaming industry.
Going back to beating the dead horse, if the executives at Ubisoft actually
cared about the gamers
paying them the money they so desperately seek,
it would be a non-issue because the resulting product would require minimal modding or patching.
Until that happens, the grognards will live up to their name.
