My honest unfiltered review of Paradise Lost

[d0ppler]

Just played it through. This campaign is really well made, and I couldn't find one single bug like an event that won't trigger or a unit which is supposed to be at pos X is not showing up/etc. The kneeboard info is clear and very well thought through and along with the voice lines you'll always know what to to do (and what NOT to do).
 

Spoiler

Some of the missions requires you to drive the Huey from the left seat. I know that many aircraft commanders preferred the left seat in Vietnam, but it was also some who didn't. Nevertheless, it's the aircraft commanders decision, so it would maybe be a bit more realistic to let the player chose which seat he wants to use in the missions where she/he is the pilot in charge of the aircraft? 
It was very strange to fly it from the left seat at the beginning, but all in all an interesting experience

The missions are varied and plausible, and fun! You'll fly both slick and gunship.

Any DCS pilot who loves his Huey should absolutely play this campaign. 

Some very important words are said at the epilogue. I won't spoil it, and let you read/hear it once you get there.

 

A solid 10/10
