What players say
Players praise X-Plane 12 for the most realistic flight physics and damage modeling among sims, making it a go-to for pilot training. However, many say it falls short on default scenery and VR performance compared to Microsoft Flight Simulator, and that the game requires community mods to reach its full potential.
