I'm thankful because the flight sim market has another great addition to it's ranks. Seriously, games in this genre (a very niche genre) are not falling out of the sky.
I'm sure it would be a lot easier for the development team to create a fps or racing game and slap it onto a console. Those games are a dime a dozen and the sales potential is huge.
But no, they spend several years creating a bloody good flight sim and the Il-2 legacy lives on...giving joy to us all. Yes it's had a rocky start but things are starting to look good.
Onwards and upwards.
