i've watched a video review.  while i can see a small audience being excited for this,.. for the general person this looks horribly boring.

The hype for this game has been flipping weird. Is it an incredible flight sim that deserves universal praise on the visual side of things? Absofudginglutely. Is it a game that non flight sim fans should mostly ignore? Absofudginglutely.



I'll play this for a bit with gamepass on next gen since I kinda do like flight sims.

i can appreciate the "fly the whole world" thing is technically kind of neat.   i still have less than 0 desire to play it.

Yeah lots of flight sims and games have "fly the whole world" but I don't know of any before this that actually had 3D cities.

clearly technically impressive.  but i have no desire to recreate 9/11 and frankly that's about all i see this being worth.   it's just not a game.  it's truly a simulator and i can't think of anything less desirable recreating an 8 hour flight to europe..

i'll definitely check it out especially to go and fly over my house, but other than that i doubt i'd play much.  If i got an actual flight stick then maybe it would be a lot more enjoyable, but still probably not something i'd play for long.

Yeah I'm super curious to fly over the UK and see what its like around me but I know I'd be bored out of my mind playing this also.

It's a little interesting how well received this is.

Looking forward to the game though.
