Poor, poor boy. He can't handle staring at a black screen. Isn't it sad?
It's indeed frustrating and sometimes sad, but that's war, after all!
I've felt a bit bad for it a number of times. That low run in a flaky place, and when you're about to press the trigger - bang! and it's all over in less than a second.
I guess the most dramatic experience with sims I ever had was in Rise of Flight. Your aircraft gets shot, a piece of your wing support is broken. You try to control it, and when it's almost stabilized, the wing goes off like a leaf. A crazy spin, you try to do something, but it just won't recover, there's no way out, and the ground getting closer, and closer, and closer... and it's over.
Il-2 is a bit lighter, as you can bail out, anyway...
The thing is, war isn't a nice cute thing, and there's no need to try to make it like such.
