56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Although I have some gripes with this game, I still recommend it solely because it delivered on the promise of being a uboat simulator, the replayability, the potential, good game.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty / realism settings are highly scalable and i don't play "full realism" despite ranting about how "this is not a sim", to be honest.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The water visuals are stunning — I stopped to look more than once
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
For combat, this game takes a very realistic approach; one depth charge is enough to sink you.
