Main page is slow to update, but if you check critic reviews it's at 91 on Meta after 38 reviews.

Lower than expected but still great. May be a struggle to stay above 90 though. Mostly disappointed Destructoid don't have a review out yet.

If most of the serious complaints are about bugs, it seems rather petty to dock it points considering the delays and crunch required just to get it to this point, with early patches/updates already planned and on the way. Given the work environment of this year, you'd think reviewers would have some consideration for that, at least. Seems almost opportunistic, as if giving themself a way to justify a low score for the biggest game of the year, and one of the most ambitious we've ever seen.

What about it is the most ambitious?

Btw FS2020 came out this year, certainly that's the most ambitious we've ever seen.

If anything it feels more like the game is getting a pass (like FS2020 got) since it will get better or they expect the day one patch to fix most issues.

Not sure why you're trying to make this a 'my game vs. your game' battle, but I clearly wrote "one of the most ambitious...". And there's no disputing this is the 'biggest game of the year' in terms of hype/expectation, if you're arguing that.

And when I talk about ambition, I'm not just talking about pushing visual and technological limits. There's so much level of detail they were attempting to put into this game, including and beyond the technical aspect. If you don't already see that and want to drive the conversation back to Flight Sim and VR, more power to you, but I'm not interested in indulging you.
