Being opinionated doesn't make one a polemicist.

Regardless, forums would make for a boring read if we always agreed with one another.
If saying or implying that games with lots of eye-candy are automatically full of bugs isn't polemic then I don't know.

Default I'm a little worried there may be even fewer

SH3 had 3 compartments modeled with a total of 11 interior spaces. Right now, we know there are just 2 compartments for SH4, and I've only seen 3 spaces in all: Main Control Room, Dive Station, and Conning Tower. I'm sure there must be at least one or 2 more spaces, but I fear it will be only half as many as in SH3. Has anyone seen any other spaces than the 3?

I hope there is a Captain's Cabin.

Its a nice place to leave the game when I need a nap.

Me too; the Captain's Cabin was a fun spot in SHI.

While it's kind of neat to be able to see these modelled in game, but I would rather they spent their time on the actual gameplay.

In SH3 I looked at the compartments once or twice, but as far as spending any prolonged period of time there, I don't.

I don't belive a single sole here would argue otherwise.

The point that many forget is that it need not necessarily be a compromise. With a sufficient development cycle and resources, there's no reason both aspects can't be adequately addressed.

I am one of those people who would prefer having a couple of ultra high detailed fully modeled submarines, Instead. for me, a large appeal of playing these games is learning about the history and soaking up the atmosphere. I also have a large fascination for these machines.
