This is like saying that the latest Doom "has been around since 1993".
FS2020 was developed by the French company Asobo.

- Daho0n 6y agoThat is not a fair comparison. If MSFS has less features but better graphics it is either moving backwards as a sim or becoming more arcadeish. A sim with less sim is less not more.
- ekianjo 6y ago> FS2020 was developed by the French company Asob yes I know. It does not mean that they disregarded the whole history of 40 years of FS when designing the game did they ?
- mlavin 6y agoBut Doom Eternal wasn't developed from the original Doom engine, same with the new Flight Simulator.
- mopsi 6y agoThe new Flight Simulator is an upgraded version of the engine that dates back to at least 1990s, if not earlier, and traces of the fact are obvious. Legacy aerodynamics simulation from Flight Simulator X (2006) is included and fully functional. Air traffic control system introduced in Flight Simulator 2002 is also there with minor changes throughout the years. Even some artwork is 20+ years old, such as "737-400_scenery_t1.bmp" texture map[1] for a fictional 737-400 that came with Flight Simulator 2000[2]. I guess they forgot to remove it, or left it for backwards compatibility reasons.
