Finally read through it. Good to hear him sound confident on the development stage and release time. Before it was always sort of a guess with too much work ahead to really know. Now it seems like we can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel. Having Korea as the second release after BoB brings up some questions though. He mentioned that since they have the SoW engine done with the initial release, further expansions would take a about 18 months. So that's three years until the third one. For WWII, playing nothing but BoB for three years is going to get old. Relying on the third party stuff is going to save us, if it works out. In three years, who knows what SoW will expand into from the outside. I just hope there is some direction to it, instead of 20 pet projects that don't actually give the game a new cohesive chapter. The complexity required to be up to Oleg's standard is far beyond what the modders currently do. Some may be capable, but the time required will grow significantly. And the best ones are apparently being recruited to internal SoW work, so they'll be busy with Korea I suppose. I wonder if we will have enough people to do 3rd party expansion projects during the first 3 years, that are up to the certification level. Hopefully the SoW community will benefit from migratory MSFS people. Otherwise, it's going to be Emils and Spits for a long time.
