Those storms are brutally irritating, persistent and
Unforgiving.
But that, for me, is the point.
The storms make it all so terribly miserable
And also immersive.
I can't make headway, attacking becomes soul destroying
Only to witness the torpedo explode en route
Or miss. Or just keep running beyond the target
Only to find out minutes later it exploded way beyond
The intended ship.
Then to dive. Conserve fuel, ride out the storm,
In the end achievement is little, reward even less
And the storm keeps blowing, and ships disappear
In the rain.
Leaves me feeling disheartened, and that's why I love it.
