Is it worth buying Drzewiecki Design for 2020?

The "Landmarks" series seems OK... at least I have not noticed any "oddities"..

I’m sure I saw a sale on DD airports for msfs going on, was thinking of maybe getting a few but not sure since if I’m understating correctly the won’t be fixed till late October perhaps even November? If they don’t work with the current version of msfs, shouldn’t they be taken down from the marketplace? 

I've just bought a load of Drzewiecki Design addons from Orbx in the sale, so I'll soon find out if there are any problems, that being said I haven't noticed any issues in any of my other DD products I had previously purchased earlier in the year for MSFS. 

AMD 9800X3D,  NZXT X73 RGB AIO COOLER, Gigabyte X870 Aorus Elite WIFI7, 64GB 6000MHZ RAM, 4TB Samsung Pro NVME, 4 TB Crucial P3+ NVME, 4TB Crucial SSD, Gigabyte Gaming OC Geforce RTX5090, Antec C8 ARGB Case, X55 JOYSTICK/THROTTLES, LG 4K C4 42" TV/Monitor 120 Hz, 2 Dell 1080 monitors. Honeycomb Alpha Yoke, Bravo Throttle. Thrustmaster TPR Pedals. Moza AB6 FFB Joystick, Pimax Crystal Light VR, Tobii Eye tracker, Steelseries Arctis 7+ Wireless Headphones.

 

Basically there seem to be two approaches for companies with current SU5 issues:

  1. some companies have spent a lot of time doing temporary workarounds that will  keep customers happy, that will need to be reversed or redone when the core issue is eventually fixed by Asobo.  Larger companies with a big customer base and unworkable products post SU5 are going this way, though they still get hammered for slow responses even though the problem was actually caused by Asobo (example Carenado)
  2. if the problems are just cosmetic or minor and not game killers,  some smaller companies cannot justify stopping other development to make temporary workarounds that are hopefully only needed just for a month or two. This approach makes business sense, but can create a furore on the entitled main forums so public relations is an issue here. In particular,  explaining the true situation- that it is actually an Asobo problem which Asobo are working on - will create a back lash as a lot of main forum users are a bit like Covid deniers with regard to any facts about Asobo SDK  flaws.

DD seem to have taken the second approach.

I would note that "do not waste resources fixing minor bugs in a product that is about to get a significant upgrade rendering all that work redundant" is definitely the approach taken by the company I work for, though you cannot necessarily tell your users that in those precise words. It goes without saying that if you take that approach you better make sure the "significant upgrade" ships in a timely manner.
