I love force feedback and find the game almost dead without it. It's a like a speedometer you can feel. If the stick is slack you are slow, the more the stick tightens the faster you are going. If it starts to flutter, you are on the edge of stalling. I just can't understand that some people don't find that useful!!!
Without FFB you can get distracted in a dogfight and not know how fast you are but an FFB stick will tell you, if you are starting to lose too much speed you will feel it, you don't have to look down at the air speed indicator. That's just like a plane in real life.
Anyway I like the idea of a hydraulic stick but the price is insane. As for looks, who looks at their bloody joystick? It's in your hand! Anyone looking at their joystick is going to get shot down. People put too much importance on looks with tools etc these days.
