The bad graphics and simplicity make it seem pretty boring.
What realism level are you playing with?? You obviously haven't experienced 100% realism or some mods such as GWX or NYGM. Give that a try and then come and tell me all about the simplicity.

Graphics I will not argue with you because honestly I don't give a crap about them to me its about realism, strategy and re-playability and that SH3 has got in spades. If these factors are not part of what you are looking for then you are playing the wrong game friend. This is after all a U-Boat SIMULATION game.

I've never played it, that's why I'm asking.

As much as I admire certain technical aspects of SH5, it seems to be missing something (for me).

SH3's got soul.

The GWX team made a good game into a bloody great game and for that I am pleased to play SH3, well done guys.

Well we like SH3 because we have played it.

I can understand that if you have never played SH3, you don't have any experiences to base your opinion on.

SH3 is not for everyone. Especially on the harder realism settings.

I don't even think SH3 and SH5 are in competition with each other. There are so many differences between the game, one should not have to choose between them.
