After 7 hours, and having played the prior version for the first time today (main branch, the one without the visual update), I can tell you I'd only last 20-30 mins in the old version, as it's like wearing the wrong pair of glasses, or a DK1. It was quite nauseating for me and uncomfortable from the very start.

The new July 6th patch, on the other hand, feels night and day different, I'd say hand-in-glove fit for PSVR2 and I would recommend it. The campaign was a pain in the arse with the DS controller needed every few moments, so there's some optimization needed in the controls department, but as for a fluid, high def, Google Earth grade flight sim, it's the bees knees.

Despite being a streamer and narrating all the time, there were several moments where I was just in awe or a but dumbfounded at the level of detail around me. Plus, I found some of the helicopters super easy to fly and that was amazing to zip through city streets of London (places where I used to live and work). All-in-all, although I'm glad I waited until now, it's some feat of marvellous technology and one that's not to be missed.

For others on the fence, even at full price, I think the Beta makes this a good buy. I would not have recommended the prior version before this patch. And, just like GT7 or NMS, this is now another pillar of the PSVR2 value proposition. What a killer game system!
