No thanks. Bought 2020 back when MS said they wouldn't release another flight sim and instead would run it like an online service.
They also told me they would have multicrew working in 2020 among a whole host of other undelivered promises.
Have fun, those of you who haven't been burned yet.
2020 is Microsoft Loading Simulator.
Game is distributed through Steam, but doesn’t use the Steam update mechanism so every time I go to play I have to sit through a half hour of updates.
I just stopped playing it.
Might check out X-Plane at some point, I think they've made a lot of progress on their visuals.
Also check out Aerofly FS4
They also said Windows 10 would go rolling release. They don't really deserve anyone's business for any product.
I'm not going to sit here, wag my finger, and preach the gospel of Linux. I find that kinda cringe. I use Linux, and if people ask for a recommendation I'll happily give my opinion.
Don't really see the point in standing on a soapbox and yelling at passersby that they're sheeple or whatever, doesn't really help make anyone want to switch, just like having someone yell at me to repent or burn in hell.
It's a bad look.
Hey, I switched to linux, too.
My personal way is to needle my buddies every time they complain about windows. 🤷♂️😅
TBF, upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 is free, so it can reasonably be called a rolling release.
There's was free upgrade from 7->8/10 as well, that doesn't make it a rolling release.
