Youre saying its reasonable its taken them 3 1/2 years to recreate KSP 1 in it's .1 but VERY buggy state? [snip]

Yeah, its management's fault the devs cant produce something *playable* after 3 1/2 years.

The absolute irony of your avatar and this post.

What in the history of the development of KSP2 gives you any faith that KSP2 will become what the dev's said it was or would be 2-3 years ago? In the real world we have seen nothing but broken promises and a woefully buggy barebones "EA" KSP2 delivered that is absolutely nothing at all like was talked about prior to its release. Complex? KSP2 at this moment is essentially KSP 1 when it was at it's .1 state. And this is after 3 1/2+ years of development. You are acting like they are developing a new MMO to compete with WoW or FF.

Only been playing them since before the internet existed.

You dont release triple a games to early access.

If theyre so passionate why is the end result of 3 1/2 years of dev time? And more to the point, how "passionate" someone is about something isnt important for the end result of a commercial product. They promised X and charged Y for it, the outcome should be based upon whether those two variables align, not how "passionate" they where. Once they delayed the game 3 times it should have been obvious you where never getting the KSP2 you wanted. End result of this is going to be some bug fixes and 1-2 content updates over the next year before all development is ended.

KSP2 has nowhere near the graphical fidelity or environmental mechanics for 30fps at 4k on a 3070 to be acceptable just driving around ksc. But we get it, for everyone glaring issue that shouldnt be an issue youre just going to handwave it away as "EA". And a year from now when this game is still in horrible shape youll be wondering what happened.

30fps at the launch pad is atrocious performance for a 3070.

So you like paying for the privilege of being unpaid quality assurance? This is why games keep turning out like this,.

No way tell me it isnt so! Who could have imagined KSP2 would turn out like this?! This is some dellusional levels of cope. Its not about the specific FPS, its about does the game perform at the appropriate level considering its fidelity and your hardware. Its very indicative of overall quality of programming of the game and to ignore is simply idiotic.

Does KSP2? No it doesnt. Its "promised" that it will be added at some later date that the devs have zero idea when that will be. Shockingly at their little "launch" expose, a dev said they dont an actual plan for delivering the promised content that was cut. They will focus on whatever the community wants the most, see this;

I dont need to be a software to see how long this has been in development v whats been promised v whats been delivered to see this has gone very badly. What is there to be impressed about? Every major feature they talked about has been cut and is now up in the air and nothing more than a promise it will be delivered. KSP2 "EA" is nothing more than a basic early .2-.3 version of KSP. That is not impressive in 2023 and 3+ years of dev time.

Ok. So after 2 1/2ish years of development all they have to show is essentially KSP1 at its .3 state. Thats abysmal output of content in that length of time. And its not like theyre starting from scratch, they have the entirety of KSP1 to work off of and use as a basis for KSP2. Name me a game that spent 6+ years in development that wasnt an absolute horror show. The most recent example of this is Cyberpunk 2077, and that game was absolutely horrendous at launch and 2+ years later it still has a distinct lack of polish.

That might make some sense if this was 6 months from announcement to release but in case youve forgotten its been 3 1/2 years since KSP2 was announced. I really dont understand why so many here are making every excuse in the world for a product that has every red flag possible.
