As i'm in the Logi eco system i wish Logi much success in the sim racing business. And i'm happy for owners on consoles, because they finally get a decent shifter.
But as i'm on pc i am glad i did not wait years for this (bought a Simagic DS-8X shifter two years ago, amazing product).
The new Logi shifter looks more like an RS shifter than a Pro shifter. The lack of a sequential option is also a missed opportunity. It's more versatile that way (being able to shift sequentially AND use the handbrake at the same time for example). It seems like the Pro line has been dropped from the start, which is a shame. But i think it is safe to assume the more affordable RS line is a lot more succesful.
