By Zachary HolmesAces of Thunder is a diamond trapped in a cage of bad UI. It delivers exactly what simulation fans have wanted from Gaijin for years: a premium, beautiful, physically accurate dogfighter with incredible VR implementation and absolutely zero microtransactions. If you are a flight sim veteran with the patience to manually bind your HOTAS and rely on third-party tutorials, this game will easily consume hundreds of hours of your time. If you expect a polished, plug-and-play arcade experience, you should request a refund before you even finish the download. Let's hope Gaijin patches the menus and implements crossplay soon, because the skies over Tau Ceti—wait, wrong game—the skies over the Pacific deserve more pilots.
