Medicine is technically expensive everywhere.  The difference is that most countries don’t make their citizens pay for it.

bUt MAh fReEduMZZZ!

Hey, this is America. We can be stupid in LOTS of different ways at the same time!

This was certainly an interesting article that brings up some talking points more people should be having in the industry, but this is not a game review. Anyone reading this article in hopes of gaining insight to the quality of the game will be left disappointed and will look elsewhere for a review that actually…

All I do in these sorts of games is accidentally crash into stuff because I’m terrible at flying. I use a crappy Thrustmaster and enjoy making planes do crazy flips until they stall out and go into a tailspin.

As others pointed out the error is almost besides the point. The whole OpEd is just that, an OpEd and the fact that the mine is and always was in the game isn't the issue at all. This was classified under a review and u think falls more on you the editor for not helping make this an opinion piece and just forgo the…

I tried to read the “corrected” version and still couldn’t get through it.

While you’re at it, his concept of the economy of flight sims is off, too. Flight sims have had payware planes, scenery, weather, jetways, etc. since forever, and the nice thing about FS2020 is a lot of that stuff is just plain included in the base package. We don’t need a weather addon because the weather is already…

Or maybe his plane wasn’t where he thought it was......

I’m going to have to agree with Segador. This should not be titled a “Review” of the game. This is a commentary piece and, at best, a review of the cloud features backing the game.

Perhaps it didn’t show up on his screenshot because it was taken 30nm SE of Bugalaga airstrip, not 40nm SE where the mine actually is.

It’s less about the inclusion, or lack thereof, of a mine in a flying game. It’s about the fact that any thoughts about the game itself are lost in a mire of pseudo-intellectual babble about cloud gaming in general and the possible future of games as a service.

This is the type of shit that right wing neckbeards will try and use when talking shit about Kotaku.

Also, the simulator community has always been a den of commercialized mods. Microsoft has monetized nothing that people weren’t already monetizing on their own. Passionate players were not making content for free - they were selling it, and frequently forming decent-sized companies to do so.

shots fired shots fired!

As someone wise once said, “Oh, SNAP!” It tells you a lot that this fellow didn't think to check whether his conclusion was accurate. He just went straight to his non-Microsoft word processing software and typed out this rambling consideration of life, the universe, and the tragedy of having to pay extra for the…

Oh my god... I hated this “review” of the game (it was not a review at all), but to learn the mine this author is claiming wasn’t there actually is... *facepalm*... I’m very forgiving and don’t do the negative comment thing too much, but this is an uber Ef up to me... bad review period, but now learning it’s totally…

Wow...this is a pretty big mistake. You don’t get a much better argument for fact checking your work.

I’m sympathetic to Will’s analysis about GAAS, but even so this is pretty high up on the list of embarrassing ways to open your review. Will, consider retracting this and giving it more time in the oven.

I read half of this review and I still don’t know if the software is any good.
