Tried asking google AI on why DCS is a resource hog, the google AI answered correctly lol
Digital Combat Simulator World (DCS) has notoriously demanding hardware requirements due to its hyper-realistic simulation of complex combat aircraft, weather, and environments.
Reasons for DCS's high PC requirements
Digital Combat Simulator World (DCS) has notoriously demanding hardware requirements due to its hyper-realistic simulation of complex combat aircraft, weather, and environments.
Reasons for DCS's high PC requirements
- Complex physics simulation: DCS models the aerodynamics, flight controls, and weapon systems of its aircraft with extraordinary detail. This requires heavy, single-core CPU performance to calculate the complex physics in real-time.
- Massive, dynamic worlds: Unlike simpler arcade games, DCS renders vast, high-fidelity environments, including entire landmasses and oceans, along with hundreds of AI units like ground vehicles, ships, and other aircraft.
- AI and scripting: The game's AI requires significant CPU power to manage the flight, combat, and logistical decisions for every unit in a mission, especially in large-scale scenarios.
- High-fidelity graphics: DCS features highly detailed aircraft models, cockpits, and textures that require substantial video memory (VRAM) and GPU performance to render.

From Time Extension:
"In some countries, such as Korea, this symbol is considered offensive, which is why Nintendo requires it to be removed before approval," says System 3. "On digital storefronts, this can be managed by restricting content in certain regions, but the challenge comes with the physical cartridge version, which is an open global release and not regionally locked."
While the Rising Sun flag has been around for centuries, it was adopted as the flag of the Imperial Japanese Army and Navy during the Second World War and became seen as a symbol of imperialism; South Korea is one of the Asian nations that fell under Japanese rule during World War II. Because of this, it is considered a controversial image across many parts of East Asia in much the same way the Swastika is in the West (although it's worth noting that the Rising Sun flag isn't banned like the Nazi flag is in Germany; in fact, the Japanese navy still uses the Rising Sun flag today).
