You will need a high end computer to run it
  properly.  Narrator is very laggy at times when going through
  the menus, and even though my system is not that old, I have
  sound issues when running it.  I have gone back to P3d 4.5 for
  now and will go back to MSFS once I have a new computer.

  Good afternoon everyone,
   
      Since I like to fly I
thought of trying out the Microsoft Flight Simulator on our
Xbox. The information says it will also run on other
platforms including 
  Desktops. There is supposed to be in-app
narration but does it work with the Microsoft Narrator and
JAWS for Windows on a Desktop, or with Voiceover and Google
Screen Readers and Amazon’s VoiceView? Some accounts of your
high flying adventures with the Microsoft Flight Simulator
from a blindness perspective will be very much appreciated.

Good afternoon everyone,

 

What’s the prognosis of P3D and MFS with JFW, Voiceover, and Amazon’s VoiceView?

P3D is a stable platform, but MSFS is getting there and is actually a
better entry start for new simmers, I'd say. Addons are cheaper.
