Star Theory = Uber Entertainment

[Mandavito]

Remember this studio published Planetary Anihilation in Early Access for + 120€ (actually the price in G 2 A is 2€) and after a few minor patches with nothing relevant, they relese PA Titans for 30€ with a little changes (titans basically, 4 new units and a little more). They started a quickstarter game called human resources and never published...

I like Planetary Anihilation, is a good game, but don't like Uber politics.

I hope Star Theory make their own and don't be Uber or Take2.

Don't expect too much for KSP2 and you don't be disappointed.

Unfortunately people are already buying into the hype as I did before finding this out.

My expectations for KSP 2 tanked.

Hope I'm wrong bro. However, we have KSP1 for always.

Only problem is that KSP1 is a buggy mess

better a buggy mess than nothing... Well, let's trust Star Theory, for the moment they have not done nothing wrong.

Don't attribute the failure of a game to a studio, especially when we haven't seen anything except a trailer.

Remember the whole thing with Planetary Annihilation, while it was a joke, and scam. The same people are:

A) Not involved with this game.

B) The same people are not the ones calling the shots.

C) The devs have been working very closely with Squad to ensure that KSP2 is as close to the expectations of the fanbase as possible.

I'd hold out on the hate until release.

Finally the right message.

A) Do you have a proof of that?
B) Take2 is calling shots, which could be even worse in regards to their typical monetization practices
C) That doesn't mean anything as Squad doesn't have devs that developed KSP in the first place, for a loooong time.

In any case, devs previous experience is arena shooter and strategy, non of that involves physics based gameplay. Good multiplayer + physics is already something that only top people in the industry can pull of with a good quality.
So far, nothing of that is demonstrated and feature list is just bullet points made-up by the marketing to make sure good reception of the core player base.

We have a right to be skeptical about this and express our worries, as neither publishers nor developers record is all that great when it comes to being loved by gaming community. Which was crucial component for KSP.

Which will change absolutely nothing. I'm not sure what everyone is trying to accomplish by shooting it down from the gate. This forums attitude is "Find something to hate about it until it releases".

Yeah, and that position is just annoying, because it just isn't constructive.

Adversely, the KSP forums are mostly exploding with enthusiasm.

We all love KSP, that's why we are here. We don't have to love new devs or franchise owners just because we saw a trailer. Not everyone is sucking to the new devs as some people on this forums.

Yeah.. you're not giving them a chance either. There's two sides to every coin.

What do you mean by that? Do you think that development of quality product can happen only in cheerful environment with everyone looking at your work as a second coming of Christ?
They have all chances that they need - funding from publisher, established franchise, huge community of fans, pretty clear game mechanics. Isn't this a lot?
My concerns are pretty grounded. Materials presented so far don't address them. What do you expect from me?
