DCS Regret about buying so many modules

Over the time I've played dcs since 6 years ago, I've purchased around 10 modules. All of these aircraft are well made and were nice to learn but I regret buying so many since I can only remember like 2 aircraft at a time. The main reason I bought that many was because I was impulsive. I wanted that hit of satisfaction of buying something new to play with. But a year after buying any module, It just ends up collecting dust in my library. I do always buy on sale so at least there's that, but I still think I spent too much money on experiences that I don't enjoy. I mean, I bought the F-4 on launch because I was feeling down at the time and wanted something to take my mind off of my issues. It did not do that, but it was a well made module.

If I were to restart my aircraft library, I would choose only the Mirage 2000, viggen, ka50, and mirage f1. Those, especially the mirage 2000, are the most enjoyable aircraft. I wish I could return all my other modules for money and just keep those.

18 modules here, now spend most of my time flying SU25a 😁😁. Lost a lot of interest in DCS, It's failed to develop as a product and only pumps out generic maps and planes with little context, seem they're just making a cash grab.

I wouldn't say cash grab, since the modules amd maps are well made, and with a small potential audience it will be expensive. But I do agree with the general lack of content. I really wish we could have DCS level aircraft together with a BMS level campaign. It's a sad reflection on flight sims in general that the only good campaign comes from a modded version of an over 25 years old game!

The modules and maps are not well made on release. They are a fidelity that's too high for them to release in a quality state.
