I've watched the videos and they are simply amazing.

I do have inexpensive but sketchy dial-up which I want to keep. That might be an issue.

The language being used is pretty vague at this point in time, but another major issue might be game activation.
-It looks like the game will require an internet activation every single time you want to play. Not just once for registration.
-It also looks like an Xbox Game Pass might be required. $10/mo $120/yr to play a game already 'purchased'.

That might be a deal breaker for myself. Major bummer.

The DVD option is only available for Europe. Not the USA.
10 disks is a problem? pshha! Here are my FSX install disks and 7TB of photoscenery. Not including a couple hard drives.
Two DVD drives toasted and counting:
Sounds like it's time to invest in a BluRay burner.
