This is going to sound harsh, but it’s just the honest truth: We need an arcade weather tickbox that disables turbulence and wind gusts for casual gamers who don’t understand or want to simulate actual aviation. I am not opposed to casual gaming, and if you’re just in MSFS for sight-seeing or quick thrills, that’s fine. But it’s very disheartening to have to think about losing realism for the sake of casual gaming. Even third party devs sometimes fall prey to it and dumb their aircraft down because a lot of gamers don’t understand or want to understand things like torque, p-factor, proper rudder usage, proper power management, etc.
All that said, I don’t actually know for a fact that anything has been removed because of this… so may my mini-rant fade into obscurity if it’s not relevant.
