Reentry is amazing!

Agreed! I have to say I was pretty proud of myself when I first bought it a few years ago - I loaded up in a Mercury Redstone and pulled an Alan Shepard without doing the tutorials or even doing more than downloading the (very extensive!) manuals (plural). I managed to launch, separate, reorient for entry, and then land safely down range without killing my virtual self. :p

 Impressive! And it's like one dev right?

Yep. I don’t know if he has help with modeling or anything but he’s been at it for a long time now. I bought it in March 2019 and here we are four years later and he’s still in EA at a (just barely) sub-v1.0 release.

What I find amazing is he does it all from the public manuals etc. from NASA from back then. You could spend months reading through them. So much attention to detail it's incredible.

Almost as grossly pay-to-win as EVE, boring realistic graphics with little artistic flair, awful balancing, unfair mechanics, can I go on? :D

The story line is a bit boring at times, and it takes decades to finish if you're fast

I'd add Egosoft's X4 to the list. Not exactly realism by KSP standards, but X4 has a pretty good space economy simulation. Unlike Elite Dangerous, X4 is a single-player game, which I prefer over internet connected multiplayer. The final chapter "Kingdoms End" will be released April 12. Great game by a small team that has been at it for many decades.

Not to mention I've got hundreds of thousands of hours in it and I've not made it to space once.
