Comparing KSP1 to KSP2

[cvusmo]

It makes sense why backlash against KSP2 in Early Access is overwhelmingly negative.

 

We got used to KSP1. A game that is quite stable and has a lot to offer. A game that took ten years to develop. A game that we had no benchmark to compare with when it came out in Alpha in 2011.

 

It's 2023 and 12 years later it feels like alpha all over again. 

The bad:

Game breaking bugs. (Ksc in space)

Poor performance. (15 fps)

Manuever nodes not working.

Parts not attaching correctly and lag in the VAB

Poor cloud quality in atmo

No robotic parts

The good:

Sound is amazing.

Graphics look stellar

The kerbol system gives an immersive vibe and each planet/moon are detailed well.

Easier learning curve than KSP1

We can paint our crafts 

We have every planet/moon that we have in KSP1

Feels like 10x more stock parts. The structural parts are a very nice addition

 

That's what I've got so far. What else do you all think?
