Honestly, sometimes I feel that in this community we lose perspective of this hobby and everything that Asobo / Microsoft / Laminar / Lockheed / others have done for us, who ultimately are the ones enjoying flight simulation. In my case, I paid $60 for the standard version of the simulator, and that has given me access to: flying around the entire planet with an incredible level of detail; today we can fly a helicopter and tour our neighborhoods, amazed by the simulator’s level of detail. flying an Airbus or a Boeing, replicating the procedures of real aircraft, but from the comfort of wherever we have our simulator. choosing various types of aircraft, some with more detail than others, allowing us to perform different types of flights. a platform where we can purchase additional products like PMDG / Fenix / A2A / others that undoubtedly add an extra level of realism. a marketplace with a variety of products to choose from to continue enhancing the experience. In short, for $60, I have more than 50 aircraft in my virtual hangar at home and almost every afternoon, I happily explore some part of the planet and fly different aircrafts, always learning something new. But when I see people expecting perfect weather, a flight model that replicates 99% of what would happen in real life, or expecting to stick their head out the window and see the same clouds drawn on their screen… with all due respect, I think we are losing perspective of what this whole world of simulation is about. Obviously, everyone has the right to their own opinion and thoughts. In my case, I am totally grateful to all the developers who make all this possible and value every aspect of what they have done. It far exceeds the expectations of what I once imagined we could have. Sometimes it’s better to be happy with the extremely good things we have, rather than complaining so much and suffering because the Airbus flare isn’t perfect or the rain drops dont look real.
