Mind you, in that interview it becomes quite clear that they do go after recreating the Microprose experience, not the DCS experience. And both are very different approaches.

And I'm fine with that. Microprose used to be very immersive while almost telling a story - the story of the mission unfolding. DCS is superior from an engineer's POV: which was not necessarily mine, I never grew warm with DCS, it feels so very sterile.

What they are doing with Combat Helo indeed looks to me like bringing up the third generation of Jane's Longbow. Perfect plan, I say.
