Optional. My favourite word 😊

Not something I am the slightest bit interested in.  As real as it gets flight simulator, but certainly not this.  I suppose the kids will love it though.

Something I'm quite interested in, it should be fun! I suppose the OG's will avoid it though.

This should be a blast, in VR!

Trailer honestly looks awesome, got me interested to give it a try

Finally explains why the sim is far too warm and orange with apocalyptic looking clouds. 

Just a shame some fantasy expansion has been prioritised over realism.

My only comment? Still no sign of any Valentine's sale :dry:

Yes, all they have to do is put in a little more orange-ish shader in and they're all set.

Except that these sorts of expansions get more casuals interested in flight simulation, and even if only a fraction of them stay, it's grown the hobby = more $$$ for *realism* additions.

They cater to us a lot, but we're already in.  So it's ok to cater to the masses every once in a while.

You genuinely think the entirety of the sim's weather technology and lighting was catered to just one expansion?

There are usually sales at this time of the year.

Yes, I think it’s far too much of a coincidence that the last sim update everything went really orange and far too warm and then an official update comes out which is set somewhere where the atmosphere is orange and warm.
