WW2 in DCS can be super boring, especially with no action showing on the map. I like Ghosts Dsmned VF81 servers becasue atleast there's some AI and map icons to help you get into action. The fights feel a lot slower in WW2 DCS and the planes feel much differently. While the immersion is there, the "fight" just isn't the same as AH. I find IL2 to be more similar to DCS. Same sever type setup, but no pro-longed war like AH. Either way, I sorta enjoy the "cartoonish" look of AH more for WW2, the special events are great, and the MA is just so unforgiving and "natural" for the most part, but I feel I get better fights there for WW2 all around.
Jets, are a whole different thing and different feeling so I cant compare with AH.
Flight simulation is a small community and it takes years to learn fundamentals. Everyone just have to find their game and what they enjoy the most. No one says you only have to play one...
At the end of the day, they are all money traps, that's what hobbies are

Just have to enjoy it.
I love racing, but you are always bound to the track.. thats why flying is so much better
