    Is Kerbal Space Program 2 worth playing for someone who had fun with but was bad at 1?

    Reviews are - not good.

      In its current state? Not unless it gets heavily marked down (KSP2 does have better tutorials and a more accessible progression system).

      With the studio being shut down, it’s likely that what we have now is all we’re getting.

          It is a AAA game. It stopped being an indie when Take Two bought it from Squad.

            Why are we defending publishers and letting them get away with using this term this way? The term should be earned for its content and quality. AAA should not mean “large studio”.

            This whole “we are a AAA studio”, when they haven’t even made a game and got the business license the day before is fucking stupid as shit. Don’t use the terms the way they want it to be used.

              What are you talking about? The “AAA” classification has always been a measure of corporate involvement and budget, not of quality. If you think that being large in scale and having good production quality is what makes “AAA” games, you’re dead wrong.

                What are you talking about…? What other industry uses it that way? Every other industry is quality, not size. Don’t let them get away with this shit.

                Don’t defend them and let them get away with this shit.

                If you continue to use this incorrect term, it will become a thing, that’s what they are hedging on, people like you letting this happen. AAA means quality, they aren’t putting out quality product so they are trying to change what the term means so they look good. Way to eat that shit right up.
