I'm sincerely troubled by the gesture of a young man who arrives to post a video message to shout to the world his frustration for a videogame that fails to meet his expectations.
I immagine everyone in this community is an aviation enthusiast, for some of us flight sims are (luckily for those) an extension of their working live (I personally know some pilot, aviation specialist, aviation historician who are modelers or flight simmer in their spare time); for others I suppose these hobbies are a surrogate of a working live that they wanted to live. I put myself in the last category, I'm a modeller and flight simmer since I was 8 old, I would have preferred to be in the first category.
What I would say is that, for what is my experience, in every community related to the single hobby (model planes static or dynamic, model railways, naval modelling or aviation artworks) I have witnessed how high the frustration among hobbyists can rise, mostly among adults. Crashed marriages, sons parked in front of Pc's to gain some hours to dedicate to beloved hobby, people in to debt to buy tons of plastic kits, adult coming to blow for contending a third place at a competition...I saw a lot of slaps fly around...
This video is too much for a videogame...is too much like those in which some madcap announce well other gestures and I stop here.
Pupo has to be respected, like us, primarly cause we are customers and 70€ for a product are not the same if spent by a young man or spent by senior professional, or related to a 2500-3000€ average salary in Germany or 400€ average salary in Serbia.
@Pupo, hey mate dont leave the community! Join some server waiting better times!
Cheers
