I remember seeing the KSP2 trailer for the first time and it hit me like a comet. Two years earlier I became a dad and stopped playing battlefield as it‘s not really convenient to engage in a competitive fps while listening to a baby monitor and instead reinstalled KSP. I found out an old gamer pal did the exact same thing for the same reason and so we ended up playing KSP while talking to each other, sharing glorious accomplishments, spectacular failures, our kids development, family life and stuff. We really looked forward to do this while being in the same game session, make our horrific contraptions rendezvous in orbit over Jool, build an outpost on Duna and stuff like that. Well, wasn’t meant to be I guess

I still remember like it was yesterday, seeing the trailer for Kerbal space program 2. At first I was incredule, were my eyes deceiving me ? No, it was real and it was coming The trailer had me in tears of joy, it looked amazing, knowing that the graphics even with the heaviest mod wouldn't match the trailer but I bet they could get close, the look, the vibes, the possibilities were all so enticing. Reading the comments made me see the sea of people whose lifes were influenced by the first game, jumping from joy at thought if a sequel, but from all comments the one that stuck with me was "You got a great thing, don't rush it, we fans will wait, there are too many games these days that over promise and under deliver because some greedy corporate people want the game out at this date , DON'T MESS THIS UP" (something like that) - Scott Manley The answer from all the fans was the same "he's right, we'll wait, just do it right" and some devs and the official yt account all said "we won't mess it up" 4 years later They messed up...

I don't exactly know what you mean because I don't have much interest in games, but from before release, I recognized a problem which has killed many projects: aspirations far too high to be achieved. In the open source world, these projects rarely get beyond one dreamer's personal computer; you hear them going on about it for a bit, but never see any working code. I thought Take Two's investment might be enough to make it happen, but all that happened was it got many more peoples' hopes up before collapsing.

I think what makes this even harder is the reality this studio is not alone. Right now the entertainment industry including games studios are seeing record high layoffs. I've been looking now as a game developer for over 2 years for something stable, and yet everyday i see more and more linkedin posts from my former colleuges, my freinds and friends of friends posting "Sadly today i was laid off, i am open to work" posts. It's come to a point where i know more unemployed developers/animators/actors/artists than i know employed ones. And the studio behind ksp2 has joined that ever growing list. This is a crisis, and the ending of this video hits it right on the head. We're looking at the fun, the joy, the hope and now we're all sitting in silence with nothing, after so much promise so much potential it was destroyed by yet another corporation being bought up and liquidated because on a spread sheet in an office someone someone probably took 7 seconds to look at, didn't have high enough numbers. Yes KSP2 was flawed, but the bones and the potential was there. I genuienly believe if the devs were given the time, it could have become a masterpiece much like KSP. I feel deep sorrow for the developers included in this layoff. It is genuenly heart breaking to be so helpless.

It's the fallout from excessive over-hiring before and during the pandemic. I've seen it at my company too, hired like crazy, launched new project left and right. Then the free money stopped flowing, and all came crashing down. Expensive projects were cancelled, our studio was sold, and we had two rounds of layoffs. And it's not even just going back to as it was before, a lot of damage was done during the frenzy, it will take years to clean up the mess. And even then I don't think we'll ever really get back to where were were, because management grew with the hiring, but of course wasn't laid off. So we are now top heavy and overly bureaucratic.

Most of the KSP2 crash is down to Take 2's instructions and decisions, wanting to use most of the KSP1 code rather than rebuild from scratch while maintaining full secrecy around KSP2 development, preventing KSP2 devs from contacting KSP1 devs who could have helped them understand the way things were done, or even content creators to collect feedback and ideas. You should really check the video from ShadowZone regarding the KSP2 development cycle, you will see that the devs had no say in this and they only did what they could with what they were given by T2! I hope this is not held against them and they manage to find a new job quickly

I still remember over 4 years ago when the cinematic announcement trailer dropped. I had tears in my eyes because it was so damn beautiful. I have to admit, I watched it again a couple days ago and there was a tear or two again, but for different reasons. It reminded me how many hundreds of hours I spent with the first game, spending weekend after weekend and being in disbelief how time was jsut flying by, and coming home from work eagerly awaiting to build a new spacecraft with new ideas I came up during my workday. The KSP2 trailer gave me hope I would have this feeling again, because I had lost interest in KSP1 and don't have the same drive as I used to, and not just because KSP1 has started to show its age for a while. KSP2 also made me so excited to be able to play with friends and strangers... What a damn shame.

I remember being so hyped with my friends for the release of KSP2. We discussed what we would do with the new features; multiplayer, interstellar travel, etc. When it came out I thought the price was ridiculous but maybe it had a good reason. I saw the high graphics necessary to run the game and the low performance you got out of it. "Maybe it will all get better with future updates?" I thought. KZbinrs were seemingly backing out of the game and switching back to KSP1. "Surely the devs can improve this game" and then the news that development of KSP2 would not continue. Such a tragic experience KSP2 had.

I'm sad the game is basically dead until someone buys it to give it justice but I'm relieved that I didn't buy it when it came out. 50 euros for a buggy mess that got discontinued is a bit much so at least I didn't waste money on the game. I'm still sad on the what could have been though.

As a 50 year old with plenty to look forward to in the space game world, I still teared up a bit at the end of this. :/ I've been on-and-off about watching KSP2 videos for months, having seen the signs of developers getting their hopes up too high long before launch. I've seen far too much of that in the software world, thought Take Two's money could _maybe_ pull it off, and then saw the community got more and more disappointed. It was pretty heartbreaking. Anyway, what's to look forward to? I'm looking forward to getting good at making great-looking JNO ships -- it's evidently possible! I want to try planet packs in KSP1 & JNO, especially Infinite Discoveries because I've always loved procedurally generated worlds. And I want to make a planet pack; I have all these ideas! :) I haven't even got time to build up hopes for that Rocket Science game Matt once showed.

It was a compounding series of terrible decisions made by people who had no business being involved in the process to deliver a sequel to the most popular space game on the planet that caused this game to fail.

I'd argue Take2 own the lion's share. They decided to pull the license from Star Theory and created a massive delay and the requisite budget eating that came with spinning up a whole new studio. They set the odd restrictions on Intercept once it did get formed which meant the entire onboarding process for the new hires was necessarily going to be painfully slow. There were bad decisions to be found everywhere but the real killer is the things that ate into the budget and those mostly fall on Take2's shoulders.

As others have said, TakeTwo certainly has the most blame. There are other factors like project management which feel frustrating, I can point to Nate Simpson's push for bigger ideas as an artist while being out of his depth in the coding & engineering side as a prime example. However, Nate's mistakes still came from a place of love and genuine desire for the game to grow, T2 on the otherhand was cold harsh business. I never bought KSP 2, always was holding off for it to get better and add multi-player and colonies; but now I am glad I didn't waste my money. If I were to point to an indie game (albeit in a different genre) that gives me KSP 1 excitement it's Century of Steam a rail simulator project that I have a few friends working on. Everything shown in the game's development so far is both artistically rich, historically detailed, and deep in the real engineering on railroads; and it has the potential to jolt the rail simulator market the same way KSP 1 did to the space/flight simulator market. The comparable games like the prior Railroads Online in the rail simulator genre are a bit too lifeless, the physics far too unrealistic, and the game performance buggier than KSP 2; and showcase why if Century of Steam can meet even just half the promises it has made it will be a kick in the ass to a genre that's been standing still for decades. Hell if any KSP 2 devs want to go rogue and make their own indie game to fulfill all the failed promises of KSP 2, I'd support them as vocally as well.

I had a really good Danish buddy, we played a lot of OG KSP together back in the early 2010's, back when i was a wee lad and didn't exactly buy KSP yet (fixed that mistake later on). Had many hundreds, if not over a thousand hours in it, which isn't a lot compared to some, but still a lot. I miss the dude, we had an argument over something stupid, as teenagers do and just stopped talking alltogether. I felt really bad, but since he removed me and didn't want to add me back, i let it go. Years later, i was going through my Steam friends list, checking ppl who were years offline and saw his name on one of those friends friend lists, clicked it and saw comments on his profile from 2014, saying RIP. Googled a bit and saw he passed away in 2014, which was a few months after we stopped talking...it still hits hard and made me think once that, if we continued to talk, maybe whatever happened to him, might not have. But, at the same time, the amount of love he had for the OG version, if he knew what KSP 2 would become, he'd be devastated and rightfully so. I do hope a proper publisher picks this IP up and makes it justice. I just hope those greedy fucks won't be selling it for a shitton, but then again, it's a big corpo and they are all greedy fucks.

Then it went all down hill and our beloved francize died. I still some times return to KSP 1 but still it was time for something new/upgraded & Improved. I remember the college days of KSP 1 pirated alpha builds. Every patch i'd scour pirate bay for a new version risking it all for some weird torrent. When new parts were introduced when the vab got expanded when we got space plane parts etc. Eventually buying the game and seeing it become what it is today. Truly a great game i can look back on.

That first trailer, I knew then I wanted to play KSP 2. I started saving for a new PC. Now I have the PC and yet still don't own KSP 2, and don't think I will. I genuinely wish the best to the dev team, it kills me to look back at the hopefulness and the focus. But let's not kid ourselves, this project was doomed from the get go. They forced an early release, forced to make management and investors happy. This resulted in the closure. I hope that one day we get a sequel to the game and someone makes a game that KSP 2 envisioned and believed it could have been.

Take Two showed some faults, but I've seen too many projects fail because it was far too ambitious to succeed, and that's exactly what Nate Simpson did to KSP2. It was he who sold Take Two on the idea that KSP could have so many extra features; stuff which could never be achieved with insane amounts of money. I'm sure he's miserable now his dream is dead, because that's the way these things always go.

If I'm being honest, KSP 2 just looks like a mobile version of KSP1. I find the menu looks super childish and the graphics are a bit cheap and plasticy. Modded KSP1 is perfect and does everything KSP2 does but only better.

Now that KSP 2 is dead, you should try Juno's new origins. It's available on PC, and performance is very good. Plus there is more customize than KSP 2! Huge number of mods, to further add tothe Juno system. Plus you can land boosters realistically.

One would have to prove that they never intended to deliver on the KSP 2 roadmap presented for a suit like that to succeed. How long ago was the decision made to close Intercept Games compared to KSP 2 development and/or EA release? Yes, it royally sucks for those who bought it but. unless closing Intercept down prematurely was always Take Two's plan, there wasn't anything illegal (directly related to KSP 2). Buying into anything early access is always, inherently, a risk. Caveat emptor (lat. "let the buyer beware").

I personally don't think KSP 2 is dead. It was not made with malicious intentions and does not deserve the hate it has been getting from the community. I really got into KSP 1 because of KSP 2. I saw that trailer back in 2019 and set the goal of landing on every planet and moon before the release in 2020. I personally really enjoyed KSP 2 in early acess and can say my $50 were well spent. I hope the game gets a second chance and I hope the community isn't permanently salty and hateful because of this. It genuinely hurts to hear people get so upset and mad about this game. No matter what happens, KSP 2 will always have a special place in my heart and no amount of doomerism, gaslighting, or angry reddit posts with make me change that. I think the developers were very passionate and most of the critism is unwarranted. Call me a shill, but I will never forget KSP 2. (no matter what happens)
