March 3, 20233 yr I guess every few months the subscription talk has to come up again. Have you guys not noticed how many add-on planes you see buzzing around in the sim after they drop on the marketplace? And that's just planes. MS is making crazy bank from the marketplace. The revenue stream is high enough that the CEO spoke about it in the same sentence he mentioned Minecraft. The CEO of Asobo said MSFS will keep going after he's retired. The only reason he's able to say that is because he knows the money is flowing in. 5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX 9070XT.

This is a good, discussion-based thread, IMO, it doesn't need the "Do you have data?" , "My statements are better than yours" argumentative vibes.

I am old enough to know nothing lasts forever. MSFS may disappear one day, there may be a new sim (did anyone think of MSFS 4 years ago?), another sim may catch up (who knows what LM will come up with)... etc. But for now, and I am sure for the foreseeable future, I am more than happy with the quality leap we got with MSFS and, as @regis9 states, brought flight simulation generally back into the big time gaming.

Hi JYW, good to see that you are checking my posts for tone and topic. That said your opinion is just that, an opinion. As for my “Do you have data” question of Mr, J, I’m sorry that harshed your vibe, perhaps you prefer supposition over facts? -B
