Sometimes it's better to do a small thing well than a big thing badly. I'd rather have ports that actually looked exactly like the real world ports and proper charts than the rather generic ports and charts of the SH series.
Same with Dangerous Waters it would probably be much better if for example it focussed only on a single hotspot like the Persian Gulf and properly moddeled all of the ports, shallows, buoyed channels etc. Unless you have a Microsoft budget, big worlds are not always a good thing, a lot of atmosphere is lost when generalisation is introduced.
