What am I not understanding? I don't think you are understanding me. It IS like a flight sim. You might be sailing a sub instead of flying a plane, but its still technically the same process. You leave base, travel to your target and fight stuff, and then come home. Its the same process, and I like both equally! I explained that already.

Your description of the process is a vast over-simplification. It's like saying "everyone is born, lives, then dies, so everyone's life is basically the same." No, Britney Spears' life is not the same as Johann Sebastian Bach's. At your simplified level, sure they both breathed, metabolized, procreated, etc. But that's not all there is to it.
SH4 has depth to it (pun intended) for those of us with a more contemplative nature who like a good puzzle (sinking ships with manual targeting), in a cat-and-mouse kind of game. And who like to take the scenic view, because it
is scenic (I live near the ocean, and am hopelessly mesmerized by it). And those of us who are fascinated by the theatre and the campaign.
Maybe that's why everything you say against the game just doesn't bother me. I'm pretty sure we have different temperaments.
