Since I left, the SH4 and SH5 has been released, and I have seen some bad critics on them, especially SH5. I planned to go back to SH3 even, but as I understand the graphics are a bit dated for modern hardware (resolution issues and so on).

I am all for modding since I know Ubisoft can't do what they should do, so now I am asking you, what should I get?

SH3, SH4, or SH5 and what mods for them?

(Also, I kind of fancy the Atlantic theatre more than the Pacific, why I am somewhat hesitant to SH4. However, a stable and immersive gameplay is more important in my opinion)

Welcome to Subsim Challe. Why Choose between the Silent Hunter series ? play them all SH3 and 4 are awesome with all the mods available. I believe others here have modded SH5 to the point where it's good as well but it seems the people here like the immersive gameplay of 3.
