I am.
Even with all of its faults and flaws (which i have learned to recognize and work around) I am still in love with this game.
Maybe I was a u-boat captain in a previous life (as maybe we who are most interested in the genre were) and am just finishing 'unfinished business', from the safety of my PC/desktop. I have no other explanation for it. I am Scottish by heritage, so I should *hate* the Germans, but I don't.
No matter.
Actually for a very long time, I had no idea there were bugs in the program. Maybe it was a bit of "hero worship" on my part, and I assumed the designers would not release an imperfect program, but also, for a long time, I was only a casual player. I never put in enough time (until 3 years ago), to notice there were any mistakes at all.
If the day comes and I can get a better computer, faster engines and graphics, then I will see about modding the hell out of the program, but for now, I play it safe. A bugged game that I can deal with is still a game, and that is better than no game at all.
My 2 bits worth...
