The worst part is that if you were in a dedicated flight sim, set up your sticks, and enjoy.

In SC, you gotta set up your sticks, you gotta then use mouse + keyboard to get to your ship. Then you can enjoy. But then like 50+% of the game is outside the cockpit, so now you're having to fiddle with trying to find a comfortable place to put that damn keyboard/mouse.

This game presents its own unique physical challenges, not to mention a need for like a GTX3070 at a minimum to get decent framerate (just 60 without every cool looking thing turned off)
