It would almost be amiss not to mention the amazing work done by Asobo and Microsoft on Flight Simulator 2020 in this context. The whole world has come to life with such beauty as I would never have been able to imagine when I first saw Flight Simulator in the early 80s. Mind you as children we were perfectly able to fill in the blanks. Yet, the latest version with its highly variable and dynamic weather systems, with spectacular lighting, has really hit the mark for me. It too uses Microsoft's storage to access data impossible to contain locally in entirety, be it Azure based this time. It would be interesting to learn more about this transition, if related.
