Soon even more Kerbals shall be sacrificed to malicious YouTube meme videos, general carelessness, and mathematical errors!

Mostly general carelessness, though. I can't count the number of times I've neglected parachutes for re-entry, accidentally staged away my boosters too soon, and whatnot. :)

I look forward to the new game apprehensively. It may be great, it may not. I am mostly nervous about the announced multiplayer support; I worry it will be structured in a way to enable 2k to add microtransactions of some flavour, which would make it useless for hosting a private server just for a couple friends, not to mention generally poisoning the spirit of the game.

Looks pretty fun. I might have to get that game. It's funny that I see this post right after making a YouTube video about what I think the perfect space explorer game would be like.

Does that mean you have not yet played the first Kerbal Space Program? If so, try it as soon as possible; no need to wait for KSP2.

I wouldn't mind seeing your video, if you want to PM me a link or whatever. :)

I made a post about it here. But in case you don't see that. Here it is.

I haven't played the first game yet, but it's something I want to play.

Do pursue that goal as soon as is practical. It's an amazing game that teaches you SO MUCH about orbital mechanics and gravity. It does have a steep learning curve (and last I checked, insufficient tutorials although they have improved recently). So if you have questions as you learn, don't hesitate to PM me here for individualized support. The KSP forums are great, but sometimes it helps to have someone to ask questions of repeatedly so that they understand your overall position on the learning curve and can give answers that best fit your current experience level. :)
