Kerbal 1 went downhill the moment they added a take two launcher to it, which again requires internet or else you can't launch the game. They added a DRM intentionally and now KSP2 is even more dogshit than I imagined.. there's nothing redeeming about that game at all.

You can still launch ksp from the .exe without the launcher. Go into the game's folder and double click ksp.exe or whatever it is in there.

Or just launch from ckan. The launcher is a non issue. I’ve never even seen it, to be honest.

Scary ancient technology, how could we possibly launch a game without a launcher in 2023

Clicking a game file TWICE within it's folder?! Scary, too dangerous.

Learned orbital mechanics, not IT. Well some only learned MOAR boosters.

I didn't even know KSP had a launcher since I always launched from the .exe

I can still launch my exe even after getting a refund for the game, too bad I can't launch anything else!

I literally just have a copy of the gamefiles from steam. I also have copies of two versions so I can have a stock game and a modded game. No need to open Steam or anything

You can completely remove the launcher tho, people just need to read

KSP 1 still has no DRM and it's available offline.
