There is quite a bit. I presume a lot of that is probably the tutorials as well? Seems like they would take a lot of effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyperspace Industries Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Congratulations! I think you are more than qualified to provide the kind of hilarious part descriptions (and hopefully science reports) we had in the first game.

obney kerman Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 If KSP2 is going to include your writing... well, I think that's going to make it a much more interesting game. Congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klapaucius Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 That is such great news! I think of you as one of the staff who has been very supportive. I've really appreciated your comments on my Milo Plane when Breaking Ground first came out. I confess, I am envious. That sounds like a great job. Best wishes.

Today I’m moving on from Squad QA and assuming the position of KSP2 associate writer. This is a huge honor for me, and I’m thrilled at the challenge. I first became involved with KSP because I wrote a fan-fiction story here on the forum. Then I was asked to join a very elite group of KSP beta testers, and a few months later, I had the amazing privilege of joining Squad’s QA team. And here it is, now over three years later, and I’m moving back to a full time writing position for KSP2. Things really have come full circle, and I have all of you to thank! If it wasn’t for the forum, I may have never had an opportunity to show what I can do, and I am just about as thankful as a person could be for all of you. Wow Congrats! i can't wait to see all the amazing things you'll bring in for KSP2! Nice Job! On 1/12/2022 at 2:49 PM, Frank_G said: All the best to you on your new orbit.

KerballingSmasher Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 So... given that they've hired Jim... does this mean that we're getting a story mode in KSP 2 at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I can't deny that would be really fun, but there are no plans for a story mode in KSP2 at this point. As @The Aziz pointed out, what I do is write things like the descriptions for several hundred parts and other fun stuff like that. There is actually a remarkable amount of writing involved in the game when you think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Out of curiosity, did you also write the lines for the tutorials? There's some controversies regarding these, so I just wanted to know who's to blame no, no.. who's fault is this nah; if you were responsible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
