Gonna say the 'quiet part' out loud:


Recommended Posts

There's really no other game I'm looking forward to.  I'd really, really like some indication that we might see KSP2 on Steam Early Access sometime before June.

I'd accept a rough product: Kerbal it up!  Don't care.  Will buy and enjoy while you polish it.  No Second SolarSystem or Multi-Player or Console at Steam Early Access?  Yep - that's a buy.  Limited number of parts and limited ability to build outposts?  Buy.  Work in Progress stamps all over the place?  Buy.

I know we're not supposed to say this.  I know we're supposed to be 'quietly supportive'... but 

There hasn't been another game I've felt 'kid in a candy-store'-like for a while.

So please accept my apology for saying this... but I could not resist.

Me wants!

While I too would buy it in early access, I seriously doubt it will come out in anything less than a released state.

And of course I'm using the modern version of the phrase "released state" in that I mean it'll get at least 3 patches within the first few months.

I'm currently going through the very early paces of building a new computer, and my baseline really is 'As long as it plays KSP2 and I can push the game without issue, it'll be good.'
My current setup is an okay-ish prebuilt (which I'm finally upgrading the RAM for as soon as I get it) and it runs KSP1 to the same level, okay-ish. For KSP2, I want Better than Okay-ish at the minimum.

I'm one of the original 5000, and even all the way back then KSP1 was just oozing potential. Knowing what I know now, I would absolutely tap past me's shoulder and tell him to buy the game the moment it became an option. Not that past-me actually waited or anything, I pulled out my wallet the moment I could support development monetarily. For KSP2, I would absolutely buy a pre-alpha version right now.

Well, if Early Access will cost $ 60, then this will mean that fans have become free beta testers, and the finished game will be somewhere in 2023-24.

That's the thing, isn't it?  Multiple game studios are doing that now... And at times it is disappointing or moderately abusive to players (making them pay for a half - a'd game the studio has no interest in ever finishing)... But in the case of KSP 2?

I'd risk it. 

(The flip side is - if you are right, the games not coming out till 23 or 24 anyway)
