Oh I completely agree. Funny enough, I never intended to do it as a career. I always wanted to be a pilot. But unfortunately the FAA considers me “medically unfit”, so I had to go with my backup plan.
For video games I’m all over the place lol. I’m a huge fan of 2D platformers, so Spelunky 2 and Hollow Knight are pretty high up on my list. I’ve played a ton of OSRS over the years, but I’ve been taking a hiatus for the last few years. I imagine I’ll start playing again eventually! Besides that, some of my other favorites are Factorio, Terraria, Dark Souls/Elden Ring, and Divinity Original Sin 2. There’s just too many to even name haha.
For music I’m a metal fan, specifically progressive metal. But I really enjoy electronic, rap, and classical as well.
How about you?
Wow, similar thing for me, I have a 'bicuspid aortic valve's which means the aortic valve in my heart is a bit funky and doesn't push blood through as it should. And that makes the FAA also seem me medically unfit. I think there is a process to get a medical exemption, but with the cost of getting a license so high already, I just decided to stick with MSFS. I get to 'fly' a 737 like I wanted as a kid, learn all about it, but I'm not shelling out thousands and years of my life (okay, maybe I am shelling out some money but I like pretty airports!)
