I think the pendulum has swung too far

Can't remember which one, but I'm pretty sure it was Silent Hunter 2 that had a micromanagement "mini game" built in for the crew. There was no option to make a watch bill so they would automatically go on watch and go to sleep when off duty, you had to stop every few hours to shuffle crewmembers around and tuck in the tired ones while singing them a lullaby. Repeat repeat repeat, then uninstall and go back to SH1.

At the very least there should be an option to turn off silly stuff like that so you can focus on actually playing the game.

It’s almost like that is the game.
