In my opinion, DCS would more so suffer from mass marketing because the general public does not want a Sim that has to have serious attention spans and learning curves. The mass of people would destroy this game or try to get the developers to dwindle their modules into the simplicity of Ace Combat. I have nothing against simple flying games, but I think that people yearning to fly in the most realistic and authentic simulator will be willing to search for it, eventually coming upon the DCS.
