All the voices in the game are pretty horrible generics too. Between ATC and other stuff, you'd think this would be such a great platform to show off a bunch of AI stuff.

It was down most of the time the first few days, they actually got the lowest review ratings on launch day(beating diablo IV and shit) cause the game just didn't work. Might be better now, I assume a lot of people who tried it with gamepass quit when it didn't work or when they played and found out it's very different than what they thought or whatever.

From what I've heard from a few YTers that I follow, the game is basically pretty good, and an overall improvement on the original, but with two caveats. First is that they shat the bed when it came to login servers and by far the most of the negative review bombs are from people who could not log into the game after launch. As one pointed out, this is nothing new, devs have had this problem for 20 years, but you'd have thought that by now they would have anticipated it or solved the problem - especially Microsoft. The second is that you need a seriously beefy internet connection to download and render the world graphics a lot of the time.

Overall, it seems to me if you're a flying sim guy, wait a month then buy it. If you are only meh and still own 2020, keep that.

Here are three shortish vids discussing the issues and generally talking about the game:

I don't really get the mini game or achievements of taking pics of wildlife or whatever while standing on the ground, while in a flight simulator.

I saw a headline about how this was buggier than Stalker 2.0 and to buckle your seltbelt because the reviewer had a bug that made them appear outside the bottom of the plane. I *think* it was the UK version of PCGamer but not sure.
