Actually I was wondering the same about the upcoming TopGun DLC and Paramount: Is this benefiting mostly Paramount because people will go see the movie thanks to the buzz (as if they needed it), or is this benefiting mostly MSFT because people won't go to the theater and will play Maverick on their Xbox instead. Maybe a bit of the two is true, or even the reverse, i.e. the former tries to distract people away from the console in order to fill the theaters, and the latter benefits from the buzz... 🙂 just kidding here.

July 31, 20214 yr Author 1 hour ago, w6kd said: I think it's fair to say that there are many right now that consider someone telling them that MSFS is *not* an unstable disaster is the one promoting an exaggerated viewpoint. And developers aren't the only ones with bias...in fact it's a fact of life that we all have our biases. So no, we're not going to try and "flag" our users beyond what we do now--which is fair disclosure of commercial/pecuniary interests in sim software. I've said it before, and I'll say it again here--the instability brought on by frequent, poorly tested, and forced changes to the MSFS platform is a tremendous challenge to those developing for it. I try to imagine running an outfit like PMDG trying to formulate a plan to keep up with wave after crashing wave of these changes across 3-4 different high-end aircraft add-ons. I think it would give me the same sort of warm fuzzy as a Christian Scientist contemplating the onset of a case of appendicitis. I appreciate the fact you took the time to reply - thanks.
