Is SH5 worth playing over SH3 yet?

I personally, do not consider Silent Hunter 5 to be any good at all.....I bought the game about three months ago and tried to play it, and quit after about 10 minutes.

Tonight, I tried to play it again and tinkered around with it for a good while to give it a chance, but I'm sorry the feeling just isn't there. I originally thought walking around the submarine would be fun and really immersive, but I don't know, maybe its just me, but it doesn't feel right and if anything just feel more a chore.

The interface is all crappy and arcady and god knows what the game designers thought they were doing. Did they even bother to look at how they made SH3 & 4???

I guess its back to SH4.....but SH5 is being shelved and is among a very small pile of "forgotten" games that I have. Not two minutes ago, I finally uninstalled it from my PC, it will no longer grace my hard drive and I'm afraid I wish I hadn't bought it. In truth, I actually feel like throwing it away I'm so dissapointed.

Shame such a great series had to fall from grace so far and hard!!
