We can pick on the HUGE number of inaccuracies and lack of detail/precision in the default product, but really, can we keep those criticisms in context? Has there ever been any other sim available on PC that has come even remotely close to as realistic and detailed representation of the entire planet???
Sure, there’s LOTS of things I want to see improved and there’s a huge planet full of problems if you fly low enough and just concentrate on what’s wrong, imprecise or unrealistic. But holy heck, take a breath, gain a little altitude and chill. Behold the wonder that is MSFS. Fly into a sunrise through some clouds over some favorite scenery, simply breathtaking. I am still constantly amazed by MSFS. And yes, I have plenty of frustrations and hopes for improvements. But we have a bloody miracle of a representation of our planet in this sim. Maybe that’s just me, I’ve been simming since I first got Sublogic when I bought my Amiga in 1986 when I was 15. So, perhaps I have a longer perspective and memories of incredibly simple flight sims of the distant past.
