Curious to see how much of a console game it will be in the PC version...
Stunning graphics anyway!

I'm looking forward to it! Easily willing to pay 100$ for it. :)

Seriously considering it...
It is supposed to run on less high-end equipment too, if you have a fast internet connection and are willing to pay for a subscription. That could be interesting, depending on the subscription price, of course. The geo data is then streamed "live" to your PC (should even run on an X-box, to give an idea of harware requirements), which means you get the very latest real-world situation (a bit like Google earth, with periodic updates).
Again, it depends on the subscription price if that is interesting or not. Let's wait and see how this turns out...

Alternative for me would be to update my hardware (one-time costly option), which stems from the early post-Pentium era. I have an i7 processor, but it is of the first generation. I believe they are at generation 9 now, with every year a new generation (did they just switch to gen.10?), so that gives a good indication of how atiquated my setup is. If I decide to upgrade my hardware, then X-Plane11 would run OK again, so that would be a serious contender for the next couple of years (already in my possession) to FS2020.

It promises to be a good year for FlightSimming in general.  ;D
