June 12, 20232 yr Ooohh, interesting! When I saw Villeneuve's badass rendition of the ornithopter, I thought to myself: "It would be awesome if I could fly that in FS." Well there we go, it should provide some escapism when I don't feel like starting the Fenix from cold and dark!

If it’s like top gun, most of it would have been outsourced with Asobo handling final integration. So no it didn’t take away any significant development time from the base sim. I doubt working title worked on this. Edited June 12, 20232 yr by Tuskin38

June 12, 20232 yr whoever did it, it didn't do for free,. The money spent on Dune could have been spent on improving the sim. Thats it.

June 12, 20232 yr Does the dragonfly thing have an EFB pad? If not, it's lazy, and a deal breaker for me! They will never get the spice in on a PEGI 3 game rating anyway (copious use of drugs). No spice - no dice! Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

I'd virtually guarantee you this is just pure promo money from HBO. You don't think Asobo paid for the Top Gun expansion, do you? The movie studio/producer (in this case HBO) pays Microsoft to put their content in, and then Asobo contracts a dev and pays them. It's a very standard product marketing relationship. If they're smart, Microsoft probably makes $50k-100k per arrangement like this, possibly more, depending on how they market the potential size of the audience. Now, there's a very legitimate question about how studios pay for this sort of video game cross-branding, and how that affects your streaming subscription price, as well as how the economics of streaming (don't) work, but that's entirely unrelated to flight sim.
