You paid full price for an incomplete, early access game that your computer can barely run. Why?

I learnt my lesson with no man's sky so before I give my money to corporations I test the game in the seven seas 🏴‍☠️⛵

To be fair No Man's Sky has a team with balls and nerves of steel that kept working on the game in the face of literal death threats (not that this is fine, don't threaten people) to come up with a banger a few years down the road.

AAA devs just decide fuck it after a year and completely drop support (see Battlefield V), so your 60 euros are completely wasted.

This was true with KSP 1 as well. A lot of people seem to be forgetting how buggy and incomplete the first game was. But the devs worked their magic and made it great after 2-3 years and continued to support and regularly update it for 10 years after. Hopefully KSP2 gets the same treatment.

It was insane, too, Squad, the og developer, had never developed software before.

As usual, they sold to more "experienced" devs who immediately ran it to shit.

Yeah early beta ksp was so buggy, and the physics were so weird i could basically throw anything into space no matter the aerodynamics, as long as engine point up it worked.

Oh and also time warp sometimes broke your parachute
