I really don't know what draws the line between hype and discussing anything KSP 2. We were doing literally nothing wrong or off-topic by discussing fun KSP 2 lore in a thread meant for hype. What are we supposed to be doing here? I saw the lore discussion as nothing more than an on-topic branch of dialog to distract us from the typical "it's been one day since I said the dev diary would be due" we get from random people occasionally. That's all how I see it. Edited August 29, 2022 by Bej Kerman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I just don't think there's much creativity in saying "hype" or reminding us of a deadline the devs never actually set, nor is it much fun. Coming up with lore bytes was fun though, and didn't detract from actual hype. That's what I don't get about the seemingly random reminder to stay on-topic, because it really feels like we were on-topic to begin with Edited August 29, 2022 by Bej Kerman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deddly Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Valid feedback guys. I could get a second opinion but it seems @intelliCom has the new thread in place now. Just a general reminder, it's usually best to send a PM to the moderator if you don't agree with what he or she has done (or report the moderator's post), that way it avoids even more off topic discussions.

Community Lead Nerdy_Mike Posted August 29, 2022 Community Lead Share Posted August 29, 2022 Hello everyone, I apologize for my late reply to this. The dev diary came down due to an error on our web side, but we plan on having it go live this week. I should have posted sooner, but I appreciate everyone understanding and we're working hard to make sure this doesn't happen again. I just ask for a little more patience and we will have it live for everyone to view on the KSP site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeSchmuckatelli Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 For those of you who like to read tea leaves: "Localization" Quote It involves a lot of planning ahead of time, as the localization process (translation, foreign voiceover, and content changes) needs to begin in the last 4 months of the game’s development. This means the localization is happening at the same time as the home-stretch production of the primary market version. Is Video Game Localization Really Important? (gamedesigning.org) 1 hour ago, Intercept Games said: Another very important part of the writing process is we are localizing KSP2 into several different languages. This means we have to be extra careful about the writing process in general, as well as finishing far enough ahead for our localization teams to have enough time to translate everything. Sometimes there might be an issue with a particular translation, such as how a joke is perceived in a certain language, and we need to work out the proper wording. I helped the KSP localization teams quite a bit and I had a lot of fun. It can be a really unique and interesting challenge playing the game in the different languages, and I got quite good at it after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Well it is of course only a general idea and that "4 months" is not set in stone, as it can be 2 or 6, depending on the game. But the fact is, localization can only happen when most if not all the writing is already in place, otherwise it's just wasted time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen; I'm holding a crystal between the toes of my left foot while juggling snakes and balancing a bowl of water on my head, so clearly people should take my non-contextual quote as absolute law. If the game is not released 4 months to the day after this post, lightning may strike my IP Address. Send donations care of Joe, these forums.

The Aziz Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I mean the game could be out pretty much exactly 4 months from now (plus two days, minor detail) since that already fits in FY2023 - Early 2023 brackets. So your crystal ball could be spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexoff Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 So what about price localization? Exchange rates are not very stable this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Many publishers changed their prices based on exchange rates over the last two years or so. But since we don't have an official pricetag yet, I'd assume it's going to be the same as other $60 equivalent games in your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
