There is so much wrong in this comment. I could not stay quiet.
Strong feedback: a strong motor is not only about the strength. It is about the fidelity in the FFB. Small details will be communicated clearer that’s why people in the sim community crave for direct drive as well as Fanatec developing. Why would you ever think it’s a hype created by Thrustmaster!?!? I know your new to wheels, but at least do your research!!! The CSL main selling point is fast and powerful FFB otherwise you could have bought a lower end wheel. You paid $$$ for a a single belt drive wheel with brushless servo motor yet claim Strong ffb is a fad??
Adjustability: almost every ffb wheel you use will have adjustability in their software similair to fanatec to fine tune your preference:

Fanatec is better because they offer it on the tuning menu on the wheel and on the fly. But you are suggesting other wheels don’t have adjustability. With TM you actually can adjust the degrees of rotation on the fly by pressing mode+left/right.
Polyphony or any other sim don’t claim to be perfect. And it’s not the ffb wheel, but the lack of simulation of G forces and motion. Th only thing ffb of a wheel is simulating is the suspension and behavior of the tires. Why bring up a 15mil simulator. That isn’t on polyphony? They are a software manufacturer , yet you are comparing them with 15 mil worth of hardware?
If you like the csl better because of build quality, tuning menu, materials used, ecosystem, loadcell brake I can fully understand. But claiming that strong FFB is a fad created by Thrustmaster, only to justify your own purchase, your just plain paranoid.
If you would just state your opinion i would have understood, but you are stating things as thruths and facts.
