100% MSFS2020.
I installed my first FS in 1994 - Flight Simulator 5 - then all versions until I switched to P3D5.
In my opinion this is the most interesting project, as many people already said I prefer FS2020 with all its problems (I’m sure they will be fixed), instead of any other SIM considered more stable.
Its development “platform” is superior to everything else and it is impossible to go back where everything seems so old now.
Its the best looking game / simulator for sure and for VFR its really good.
Take the visuals away however and FS2020 doesn’t offer much in terms of functionality, no replay, flight analysis, no possibility to practise low visibility take-offs and landings just to name a few.
Check my long essay here:

Yeah indeed at the moment MSFS is the best looking sim and best immersive sim. However , I believe once airliners from third party add-ons,it will be with no doubt the best sim from all rounds and I foresee that it will dominate the sim market and I wouldn’t be surprised the competition will be more between MSFS and X-Plane for normal users like us and P3D will be more for professional enterprise kinda of training sim (that was its target anyway).
Also, I love Microsoft and Asobo approach and their openness to the community with weekly updates and monthly Q&A , it gives me the feeling of safety and assurance .

Oh yeah of course. But that CTD really did it for me. People complain about CTDs with 2020 but even today FSX has them (this is the steam Edition I am talking about, don’t have Access anymore to the original FSX).
Hold that thought until Xplane 12 comes out. Then we’ll be better able to judge your statement.

No bugs in xplane - who are you kidding? MSFS is baf far the best sim and nothing comes even close. And it will only be getting better over time.
I must have been lucky with my xplane. Lucky the world is not going to end anytime soon. Should give them plenty of time to get it all set for xbox release. 
Well I was someway along the road to getting my pilot’s licence before having to quit because of cost and a new family.
I can absolutely assure you Xplane is as true to life as far as a PC sim can be.
FS doesn’t come close.

The standard incorrect x-plane fanboy response, sigh.

Oh I’m no fanboy and would switch to a “better” simulation in a heartbeat. FS just isn’t it.

Yes, Xplane’s aircraft systems are much better I agree, but tbh I actually prefer the FS2020 flight model and as far as visuals are concerned Xplane is definitely last gen.
Xplane 11 is very much redundant on my system but looking forward to seeing what Xplane 12 brings to the table if and when it arrives.
Yes I think we’re collectively holding our breath in anticipation.
I’ve been flying a lot in sims.
Al MS flightsims up to XP, last couple of years switched to X-plane and that feld like a hot-tub.
But… now I’m flying FS2020 and must admit that it gets beter and better with every single update.
Nothing really wrong with X-plane but unfortunately my time is limited so for now I stick with FS2020 ( and the F16 in DCS, whenever I need to jerk around and blow things up:-) )
Yeah, I’m still using XP11 for VR but I think I’ll probably stop once it comes to MSFS. Not perfect, but I am really impressed, I think it’s fantastic, beyond my expectations.

Hopefully, it might come in a few months.
Whilst FS2020 is my sim. choice at the moment there is always room for another sim. So, yes, looking forward to Xplane 12 as well

I flew a VA flight recently. Had to use Ex-Plane. Finally updated to 11.50, and ran it in Vulkan, with Ortho4XP as usual. Didn’t run any better than in OpenGL, and I was shocked at how s#$%y Ortho4XP looks compared to the MFS world. At one time I thought O4XP was as good as it can get…LOL.
Bottom line is the second PMDG drops their 737 into MFS, Ex-Plane gets deleted.
