I am not an expert, but something does not look right there...Managed to install a mod in Flight Simulator 2020 that let me fly an F4 Phantom.

Things are going well.
I played SM for a few hours but got bored with it.Still playing the hell out of Dyson Sphere Project. Amazing game. Also been playing Hades, which is a great action RPG kinda thing, but I suck at it. Also picked up the free beta of Eternal Cylinder, which is kinda like Spore, but with a plot and gorgeous graphics.
Also, if you have not gotten it, Surviving Mars will be free starting tomorrow on the Epic store. I simply cannot recommend it enough.

Do you have several characters or a favorite.? My main is a Nord two handed sword guy, plus built another mage with a bow and a pet guy to resemble a WOW hunter.ESO's new CP allocation system is more than a little handful. I kinda wish I'd screen-shotted my characters before, but I pretty much never pay attention to up and coming patch plans.
I feel like most characters are weaker. Maybe I just didn't re-allocate points properly. The new system looks like you probably can be more powerful in the long run, and at the very least you can target your build a lot better. The old system provided a whole lot of wider-bonuses, ie, to all direct damage you deal or protection from the same, or to all elemental and protection from. I feel like most lost more than they gained.
But, at the same time, I play ESO mostly like a single player game where there happen to be other players. I might do some group dungeons, but I have absolutely no desire to do the higher-difficulty veteran challenges or anything like it. WoW raiding burnt out that desire permanently.

Haven't played in a while.
11 characters thus far, X of them max lvl. CP 734.
Tough call. I've always enjoyed my first character despite idiotically making him a Breton. He's a NB that uses bow for distance and dual-wield for up close. It's not optimized for PVP or any one thing (though would probably be terrible for PVP). But it's a stam build. Any number of other races would've been better. Maybe I'll use some of these extra crowns I end up with through the ESO Plus sub (which I have mainly for the crafting bag and because you get access to all existing DLC) to switch races. The magicka buffs, including racials, are wasted on him.
I was also rather partial to my Orc DK. Stam build, 2H only. I have a necro using 2H only that I'm growing more partial to. The first attack bar (not counting ultimate) for each is the full 2H skill line. The second, class stuff that generally boosts things. DK seems a bit better at DPS, necro better survivability since I've got three different heals and an armor thing slotted, the fifth being a skeletal mage.
I'm sure anyone who knows what they're doing could look at my chars and point out a million ways I could better optimize my builds.
The NB takes most things down with three attacks: snipe, immediate light shot, followed by the fighters' guild bolt skill (I forget the name. First one in the line). So when I'm running around, over half the things I kill are dead before I've closed to melee. The 2H guys just get it done more quickly after charging in: charge in (with the area damage upgrade), upper cut, immediate light attack, reverse slash if group but maybe cleave depending on how badly the mobs have been damaged.
I've got a whole bunch of other characters. A staff sorc. A 2H sorc. A 2H Templar. Others that I haven't brought up to 50: a couple wardens, another 2H stam DK for some reason (I should probably make him bow or dual wield), a magicka DK, etc.
But I just don't have the time to really play anymore. I can post here during the day because I'll leave myself logged in, take a break every 30 or 70 minutes, waste a few minutes (I type very quickly, and can read pretty damn fast if it's not important to boot), then get back to whatever it was. But something like ESO, I gotta sit there for a consistent block of time, and I just don't have that except for a bit before bed.....and that's if I don't instead spend it on some other activity....
This video aptly describes.
Sounds like you been playing a while, Vestige.
Multiplayer FPS and RTS games used to fill that niche for me, especially Quake 3 and 4. While I like NPC fights that take some planning/skill, I'm not so much a fan of having to practice a particular boss until you *get* him. Humans are unpredictable until you've played the same guy a ton. And if that guy is great he's still unpredictable and so, hopefully, are you. (Late-stage Quake 4 was great for that, though these days I almost never see any active servers if I look).
Or games like Warcraft 3 / Starcraft 2. Inspiration happens in a flash and you work out a new maneuver, in circumstances you're probably not going to see again unless the absurdly improbable happens. But you get better and better at improvising. That kind of training I like.
WoW had the dumber version of that: learning stages. It's not that you got better as a player when you finally down the raid boss. You just learned how to do your role and what happens when during the fight. DS sounds far more intelligent. But at the same time....I'm not sure I'd enjoy fighting an NPC fifty times until I memorize all the things he does, all the visual tells, and all the proper counters. I'm only getting better if I wipe new things out faster. Otherwise, I'm still just sort of memorizing stuff in a particularly challenging game.
Looks very much like Darkest Dungeon (one game I couldnt finish because it was too tough lol).The latest indie game I'm enjoying:
Urtuk: The Desolation
