Digital Combat Simulator! The first time I locked onto a target and fired a Maverick after figuring out how to start the plane from cold by reading the 600-page manual [0] is one of my proudest gaming moments. It was a great exercise in learning how to learn. Once you've figured how to manipulate the HUD and MFCDs and program waypoints into the CDU, every real world technical topic you could possible learn suddenly seems possible. I don't get intimidated by complex systems anymore precisely because DCS gave me a huge confidence boost.
