I can go down to the dock and sit all day watching the empty ocean and it's more of a "sub simulator" than sitting in a chair watching empty ocean on the screen. But the option is always there for people who feel they need to waste hours of real time doing nothing. The rest of us would also like the option to play as we see fit. It's not like it costs the real-timers anything, either, except apparently an affront to their delicate sensibilities. It certainly doesn't "take anything away". It adds a capability that the majority of players want.

What he said.
If you want a pure sim. why the time compress? Why the torp screen, why the external camera, why no food?
If you would like to sit for 45 minutes to an hour doing nothing but listening to the rumble of the subs engines, more power to you. I have other things to do in real life and want to spend that 45 minutes to an hour ducking from airplanes, getting depth charged by destroyers and shooting torps at liberty ships, not watching a little cirle move slowly across my screen
