Yes, agreed, best early access game ever. A great success for early access as the developers roused player feedback and fostered a mod community.
I know that there is always pressure to sell the next big thing, but this developer, Squad, should keep working on Kerbal Space Program. Refine it, expand it, and improve the gameplay elements. I'd like to see this get more story-driven and add competitive elements.
KSP is already a singular construction and simulation title that is unforgettable for a large portion of its players. However, the developer has a rare opportunity to make this one of the all-time great games. Further improvements will solidify it's position in the gaming zeitgeist.
I understand that KSP is a complex game that won't ever appeal to everyone, but smoothing the difficulty curve would help more players enjoy this unique title. It's a rare occurrence to have developed an all-time great game -- I'm hoping Squad isn't too anxious to abandon it for the next big thing. So far Squad has been tremendous in supporting KSP, I just believe it would behoove them to stick with it a while more.
Victory needs no explanation; defeat allows none.
