This type of attitude puzzles me greatly. Asking for a mountain to look like a mountain is not unreasonable. It is not for the users of this software to concern themselves with how difficult it is to do. Are you really asking us for some sort of sympathetic appraisal of Microsoft, one of the worlds richest companies?
They sold a game on the premise that you could explore a world that looked like the world. I’m not asking for the public toilets on the west side of Hyde Park to be modelled correctly. A lot of people are just asking that a mountain is a mountain and where the coastline meets the ocean that it merges realistically, that rivers run like rivers, roads look like roads, etc. I have just flown over the south of France and there is some pretty tragic scenery there and this is a country with the much vaunted “world update” applied.
For me, this is all a reasonable ask, and don’t worry about Microsoft, they can afford to fix it.
