ED:
there is only ONE flight simulator in this list
"Kerbal Space Program is a space flight simulation video game developed and published by Squad "
An honest question about the two most popular space flight sims
- Thread starter CMDR_LS
- Start date
Really comparing ED and SC is like comparing apples and oranges.
Or less succinctly: comparing ready-to-eat apples to the-plantation-soil-has-yet-to-determined orange-seeds
looks like you worked pretty hard to get that list together yet half of it isn't even in ed either, and most of the rest is anecdotal/filler implementation at best ...
that said, these really cracked me up: "vr, server-meshing, faction warfare, dynamic economy and orbital mechanics"
Right now in SC you get to fly all the great ships for free/rent to help them iron out the designs. What happens when the game drops and you have to go back to the starter ship you bought for like $50.
You go back to relying on folks like me to lend you all the nice(er) ships
...Or join an org, something like that.I wouldn't be too concerned about Star Citizen 'dropping' any time soon, there'll be another ice age before that
Start virtually mopping floors.
Its like comparing apples to the promise of an orange.
X4 is quite good
Not so fast brother: First there needs to be a roadmap for a roadmap to re-invent orange seeds.
"Brought to you by the man who used to work somewhat-adjacent to The Man From Del Monte, pledge now for pictures of the best damn oranges ever, to be grown from refactored seeds using never-been-done-before gene-sumption technology."

What do ED and SC have to do with most popular?
SC isn't even released yet and won't be in a releasable state for years (if ever).
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Dont know how old that saying is but even our ancestors knew that something real was better than something not real. Who first wrote about the dog with a bone seeing his reflection in the river?
A Ponzi Scheme uses new funds from investors to pay out 'interest' to old investors. Eventually it runs out of new investors. Some can go for months, some for years and some for decades even, depends how much money and greed the investors have.
A Fraud is a scheme designed to defraud, thats its intent.
A car crash is when someone thinks they can drive or tries to show off by doing too much and it all goes wrong. Once they lose control its almost impossible to regain it until its all over and the debris is everywhere. Then its about picking up the pieces. Letting the same driver back behind the wheel after they prang 4 parked cars probably means theres going to be a major crash down the line.
Apples and Lemons.
Thats getting a bit old now, about 5 years too old, wait until it comes out and then say it is going to kill ED, not sure why both cant coexist but hey ho.
