I am very happy flying VFR GA in MSFS being advanced X-plane 11 user 
I like multiplayer - much better than Ivao/Vatsim network.
Also A320 is not that bad
just added fshub/LRM (landing rate monitor) to my setup, and enjoying the game even more now since i have a more detailed logbook and landing stats.
The positive spirit gathered here is overflowing and spilling to other threads, yeah!

Incredible fun since the release. I’m lucky not to had any update issue or CTD.
Plus I wanted to be part of the Alpha and now I’m in
I had promised myself to never use a sim without VR but I tried MSFS and unfortunately cannot go back to X-Plane 
We badly miss add-ons aircraft but there is a lot to do with the ones we have (first thing : remember how to compute TOD 
).
Asobo, keep focus, just a little less than 3 millions bugs to fix

Despite its issues, I’m thoroughly enjoying it.

After turning off Multiplayer traffic and Azure voices it’s been very “smooth air.”
Still glitches with a few odds and ends, but I’ve completed two IFR flights today. Loaded procedures and all. Flight planning handled by Little Navmap.
Aircraft is the TBM 930, with a beautiful custom livery. All-in-all, a very nice day of flying!

I look forward to flying every night after work. I love it. I’ve been one of the fortunate ones to have very few issues and no ctds. I look forward to every update though, it’s going to be a great journey seeing how this sim progresses over the years.
Some of the weather systems through various times of day still have me in awe. The cloud systems are awesome.

I am pretty satisfied even VR is missing. At this moment I have not suffered game crashes like earlier and trackIR works well. Community is creating landmarks and base of simulator is good. Lot of third party planes are missing, but I have deluxe and it have decent selection of base planes.
I fly with X-Plane 11, DCS and IL-2 at this moment. MSFS is very good when you fly VFR with GA planes like Robin.
Satisfied enough to cancel my Game Pass subscription and buy the game. It’s also cheaper in the long run. I still have confidence in the developers

Finally a postive discussion thread on this forum! Good initiative 
I’m really enjoying it as well, and restarting a hobby that I did last 20 years ago. I love the visuals, the bush trips, the GA airplanes. Airliners will be for later. And I love experimenting with Arduino’s and Raspberry PI’s and making my own cockpit through the Python SimConnect interface!
So a great adventure, and looking forward to everything that is still to come!

I did the same. After a month or so of Game Pass play, I purchased the Standard edition at a special price and, five days later, once I was sure everything would continue working smoothly, I cancelled my Game Pass as I personally never use other PC games.
I’m enjoying Flight Simulator tremendously, warts and all. I think it will certainly improve and sooner than we think. I believe some of the problems that are encountered may be because some simmers may not yet have configured their sim to perform at its best, for whatever reason. In my case, coming from FSX, I deliberately set the sim to the ‘Legacy’ mode following installation and I fiddled with the settings available with that choice. I found that while flying, my aircraft were much too skittish and the planes were dancing around nervously way too much for my taste. My TBM 930, particularly, was a handful and I hard a very hard time landing it the first time I flew it. At first, I thought this was just the sim acting ‘As Real As It Gets’ but it kept bothering me. Fortunately, in my quest to improve the feeling of my yoke, I decided to try changing my sim from ‘Legacy’ to ‘Modern’ mode. Big surprise! Everything smoothed out and flying became a real pleasure for me. That’s just my experience but it was eye-opening for me.

I’m still happy I paid out £109 for Premium Deluxe at launch. While MSFS 2020 has been disappointing in a myriad of ways, it’s also very impressive and brimming with the potential to mature into something truly outstanding. It’s a shame we’ll have to go on that journey, too, incrementally, but assuming MS and Asobo stay true to their long-term commitment, I’m very hopeful that five years from now we’ll all be looking at a polished, almost entirely different sim.

Even with the ‘downgrades’, I’m having a whale of a time! There is SO much you can do, even with the present limitations. It would be great if the graphics would revert back to better quality, but even if they don’t, it’s no big deal to me.
And assuming Microsoft doesn’t pull the plug (and I wouldn’t blame them if they did), it will only get better.

As a bush and vfr pilot, I am much satisfied.

Keywords that make me happy I have four Rasp and one Arduino. (not for FS2020)

EGAR. A real challenge to land there in the current weather conditions.

Thanks for sharing.
BTW. I am still enjoying FS2020r2 today. The forum has gone very quiet so I assume a lot of the user who were repeatedly complaining have managed to fix their PC problems and are now away enjoying the sim.
