It's because we're not actually on the sub itself. But if we were we could be sitting aound staring at the woodwork, contemplating the crabs in our groin, watching the fly on Doenitz's picture, watching the mold grow, listening to the tip-tap-tip of water trickling into the bilge, hearing the wind whine through the net guard, and other fun stuff.

Since we don't have the boredom factor of dealing with sitting around peeling lemons everyday we use this way to model yet another immersion factor.

Which got me to thinking. (An unusual concept for me, I admit) Do flight sim gamers have this same argument over 1x and TC? Just wonderin'.
