_KSP 2_ I’m crying right now.

they’re tears of joy lmaoof

[@bearnaff9387]

I didn't know this community version of the BFD video existed until Scott Manley linked it at the end of his video. I managed to hold on until the last shot, when I realized it was the closing shot from Nassault's "Most Astouding Fact", the video I think of when I think of this game and what it means to me. I just fucking lost it. I mean, I was wrong, it's a different Nassault shot, but I still lost it.

If it wasn’t for KSP I wouldn’t have understood aerodynamics as well and wouldn’t be on the road to getting my pilot’s license. Thank you KSP dev team.

[@yocracra2775]

I’m not out of highschool yet, (currently a freshman), but I’d say KSP has set me on a path directly for Aerospace/Aeronautics Engineering. I’m also planning on getting my pilots license at 16. Thx KSP.

[@matthewjones6127]

Means more than any budget could.

[@CuzicanAerospace]

I thought the original made me cry hard, but I was sobbing by the end, and I'm still crying to be honest. My love of space was something I had put away as a child so I could focus on a career, and Kerbal Space Program rekindled all that. Thank you, Shaun, for reminding me why I love this game so much and why it matters to us all.

[@Debilitator47]

Beautiful. I felt much the same. Also hi from the announcement of KPS2. The future just got a little better.

[@josephhaas7413]

I relate to what you’re saying so much. I loved general aviation growing up. I had at least 4 or more flight simulators, and did everything I could with them to go to space; that almost never worked though lmfao. I even had my parents buy a couple random space flight simulator games for me. None of those could ever beat KSP and the impact it had on a 26-year-old me. I rediscovered myself and what I loved and held dear since I was a kid through Kerbal Space Program

[@morys42]

exactly the same for me

[@BaddAtom]

Was too old to learn orbital dynamics they said. The day when playing KSP makes sense is a wonderful day. Best game ever made!!

[@pkmniakozen8648]

The feelings of so many people potrayed in a single video, as they explored and dreamed about distant lands... *claps*

[@electrohalo8798]

the dev team gave you a thanks in the trailer, you did deserve that, you more than deserved that, also scot manley lol, keep up the good work

[@rocketman544]

I wondered if someone would update the old vid. Manly (Manley?) tears were shed! Excellent work, thank you!

[@PenguinAugis]

Kerbal space program 2 basically did that (it feels weird to say it)

[@yurigagarin3014]

Hmm I wonder who would update this old vid hmmmm...

Beautilful! Really captures the imagination of the whole KSP community. So many memories. :')

[@gideonstargrave]

The original Build Fly Dream moved me to tears and this one has too.

[@noelwade]

Shaun - Sorry that I (and so many others) hadn't discovered your homage to KSP before the KSP2 announcement. Kudos for such a well-done video; I am sure it took almost as many hours to produce as some of us have spent actually playing KSP! ;-) And congrats for inspiring the KSP2 devs in such a dramatic fashion!

[@ShaunEsau]

Just glad that you found it eventually =P

[@Shadowkey392]

And now Private Division’s done their own version for KSP2. How awesome is that!

[@Simon-px8mi]

Thank you ksp and squad without you i probably would have never known how orbital mechanics work and how hard it is to get to space thank you i will remember this game to my last days and hopefully ksp2 too

[@mechanicpluto2430]

This game changed so many lives...for the better. This game and its sequel will go down as truly amazing works of art.

Fantastic celebration of the original video five years on, it shows how far KSP has come and the impact it has made on people. Beautiful!

[@kspfanatic102]

It's really mindblowing how a 5 year old piece of art can still influence people and their emotions even with a newer verison of it, I must admit, it just got better in quality, Beautiful work.

[@kendokaaa]

Right in the feels. Couldn't help shedding a tear. This sums up my thousands of hours of KSP pretty well

[@Tetracarbon]

I can’t believe I missed this great video when it was released. So glad the new guys have riffed off of your great work.

[@jpase]

KSP 2 announced. Squad announced to continue updating the original even after the release of 2. KSP subreddit reached 1 million members. And just recently, as I'm writing this, 9 full years since the official release. KSP is an awesome game, and even after 9 years, it's being loved and updated. Cheers, the whole KSP community, dev team, and thank you.

[@stephenmclaren5692]

Not gonna lie, this bought a tear or two to my eyes. Also huge grin at all of the RUDs!

[@CamTroid]

I first began playing KSP when I decided to pick it up during the summer sale in 2013, and it truly was the beginning of a personal odyssey. At the beginning, It taught me about the mechanics of space exploration, such as orbital mechanics and the like. Things that, despite being fascinated with space since childhood, I had never really considered. I remember my early days of college when I finally performed that first Duna landing. I remember when I was sending land/rover probes to all the planets for the first time. I remember having the idea to make some dumb music videos with gameplay footage, those of which actually built a minor KZbin following. And I remember how through my videos I met someone I love, and for whatever strange reason, she actually loves me back. I hope to spend the rest of my life with her. And here I am at this exact moment, still playing KSP and making a making a new video. It's been quite the 5 year journey, and I hope it never ends. Amazing video, by the way! It's what made me feel so sentimental. Fly safe, everyone.

[@LitenKatie]

This video is beautiful and captures my favorite things about the game. The journey through space led me to you. I love this video and I love you Camtroid

[@fadedspace]

I had no interest in space. Watched the original. Got into it. And now I am working with NASA for Artemis. When I faced those challenges years ago to reach the mun. I could probably take on it's real equivalent no sweat. Thank you Shaun. What you've done for many is incredible. Build, fly and dream on.

[@ShaunEsau]

It's incredibly moving to hear stories like yours! Thank you for sharing!

[@AudioArcturia]

I've been a big part of the KSP community since it came out (I was in 11th grade). But I had never seen this. After 5000 hours cumulative in the game, and several books and classes later, KSP2 got announced, and it turns out this video and the original were the inspirations behind the reveal trailer. I loved the reveal. But I LOVED this. When the climax ended and the plastering of headlines started hitting and I saw the ones about guys getting into university and getting aerospace jobs because of this game... I choked up and cried. KSP is beautiful. This video is beautiful. Thank you for it.

[@geraldsouthwood]

Guys, Seriously proud to be part of this community. The squad team can really be proud of what they have created here! And thanks for the awesome video Shaun.

[@jacekgrzybowski5427]

Ksp was the game, that made me really into physics. Now i am one of the best in the country as a physist student and I want to go further. The intro you made couple years ago motivate me to work harder and dream about impossible things. Thanks for your art!! It made me me as it is!

Got an ad for KSP2 before this video. I've probably watched it 20 times now.

[@FoxderjaAwdFox]

Kerbal Space Program, the game where it truly shows that not most games are only meant for entertainment,but for inspiration, a test to show what it takes, where it's experience can be placed into real life. The best part? Some even turned some people into engineers,scientists or basically every ambitions they ever dream of, all thanks to the game (like KSP) that changed their life. If they can become successful people, you can too.

[@Protos122]

Absolutely beautiful! KSP 2 Hype!

[@matthirst4569]

This never fails to give me shivers. So happy to see a 5 year anniversary one!

It only took the video 18 sec to get me emotional ... The fact that KSP 2 is coming, makes me very happy i so excited... combined with revisiting this video got me thinking about the great time i had with KSP .... and those which will ...

[@Crembaw]

I had kind of fallen off KSP for -- whatever reason you want to pick, time, issues with its direction, I really can't remember the specific event. But I woke up and saw the trailer for the first time, and then I saw this, and I just...remembered. To share such an experience with even a fraction of all the people out there, to remember why I ever cared about learning, it's all just such a beautiful...thing. I'm glad I can feel better about the future, even if only for a moment.

[@arcqui4461]
