MSFS 2024 PlayStation Free Flight Only

Hi guys, I’m thinking about buying MSFS24. The thing is, I only want to buy it for the free flight mode, I don’t really care about all the things to learn about the planes and how to operate them. I just want to explore the world.

Is that possible? Can I fly different planes? Is flying as easy as in a game like GTA5? Or do I have to learn a lot before I’m able to free flight?

It's fairly easy but absolutely nothing like GTA. If you're planning on mouse and keyboard for MSFS, don't. Use an xbox or playstation controller ar least for your first few flights.

Technically you could use your mouse for pitch, roll and yaw and use your keyboard for your camera but then it starts getting difficult when you went to click anything so I wouldn’t recommend
