If you didn't like SH4 you'll probably like SH5 even less. Personally I like SH4 a lot, my main objection being the lack of modding involved, especially in the U-Boat side. As I said, SH5 is geared less to running the sub than to role-playing the captain. A lot of people like it and stand by it as the best there is. My tastes tend more toward the kind of campaign offered by SH3, but then I go back to SH1 and Aces Of The Deep and Silent Service before them.

Edit: Hey Steve, can you let me know which version to buy on your amazon link?

It's not exactly "my" link, but I'll try to help.

The Gold edition is available for direct download.

The 'Gold' edition of SH5 is nothing more than the basic game with some extra ships formerly available for purchase. I stay away from it just on principle. If it costs the same as the 'regular' version, go ahead and get it. If it costs one penny more I'd say it's not worth the money.

Is there any drm on the copy now? should i activate the game through steam after i get the product key, i want to mod my game heavily with a supermod or individual mods, not sure the best way to go.

The DRM was removed a couple of years ago. I never use Steam for anything. As for mods, I can't help. My nine-year-old single-core 32-bit machine tried to run it for a week or so before giving up altogether.
