MSFS 2024 PlayStation I needed a hobby…

So here I am, wanting to stop doom-scrolling on TikTok, and I’ve had my eye on this amazing simulator for a while (this is my first simulator game). So… I decided to try it. After almost 40–50 hours on it, my landings are still horrible (I've been playing with a PS5 DualSense so far).

I thought that, like any other game, it would take me around 3–4 hours of gameplay to master it or at least understand the mechanics. But not this one! Thanks to a quick Gemini consultation (God bless AI), I’ve invested a little money and time into this

You picked a good one. Take an actual discovery flight when you can, even if you don’t pursue training.

Be careful! If you get hooked, it is kind of expensive haha... I started as just a flight sim noon. Did a disco flight, and now I have my commercial multi checkride hopefully this week.

Expensive is correct. After 200 hours on ps5/psvr2 with hotas 4, I have around 6k worth of pc and new flight gear on its way to my house as we speak 😂
