This is a slippery slope for the devs, because of the potential consequences. It could either be really fun, or really bad for players. I think systems like this should be implemented after the foundation is put in place.

Exactly. Imagine designing a crewed mission to explore the depths of a gas giant. That would be challenging, fun and rewarding in progression, ideally.

I think this is a great idea, but it should be very realistic. No sky whales, more so microbes which could appear as images in science reports, or the KSA equivalent.

That would be nice.

Yes. I agree. Functional weather is a must, and part failures and maintenance would be incredible. Long research is a good concept also. Recolourable parts is also a must for me. And no more only analog solar systems.

Yes! There are no hycean planets in KSP, and barely any mods adding them.

Also, it is a sandbox game. The whole point is you do what you want. If you want to land on Eeloo, you will. But with KSP, once you've bought the game, revenue is earned. It doesn't matter whether someone does everything in the game if they don't want to.

By the way, your system is pretty good apart from the microtransactions. Just edit it a bit, and perhaps rethink the point of a space simulation game.

Progression in a game is all well and good, and I agree that KSA should have good progression systems. However, lessening the complexity of the game and adding microtransactions betrays the original intent behind KSA. I don't understand your point, you are just reiterating your prior point, and...

I think you are missing the point of the game idea. Look at Kerbal Space Program! That game is amazing, and highly successfully, while still being very niche and deep. Microtransactions are not ethical in a game like KSA. A game can be both entertainment and highly educational and realistic...

Here's hoping this forum becomes a lot more crowded in future!
