This continues to be the most astonishing 'game' of this generation. It was my sole reason for buying a Series X and now I have a VR capable gaming PC, I really can't wait to try it on that platform too. Looking forward to seeing where it goes in the next decade or two.

If there’s any game out there that justifies you to buy a storage expansion card, this is one of them. I’ll buy a 1TB Seagate one day if it ever goes under £100.

Wish this game had a "career" mode so it was more gamey.

@MetalGear_Yoshi The game is getting a big update next year where you can do missions like transporting cargos, passengers, putting forest fires out etc. When the update is out I’ll download the game again.

This is a game I dip in and out of, but it can be very relaxing to fly around these amazing areas. I play via cloud though as it's such a massive install.
