While a definitive positive review may not have been initially warranted, recent developments, particularly the 'For Science' Update, have significantly elevated Kerbal Space Program 2. The engaging personality that characterized the original game not only endures but is now complemented by notable improvements, making the sequel more playable and enjoyable.

For me, the recent enhancements instill hope that Kerbal Space Program 2 is on the path to becoming a great game. However, with the caveat that my recommendation comes with reservations, especially for those who haven't exhausted the first installment. Despite concerns about the state of the engine, the recent 'For Science' Update has injected new life into the game, offering a compelling reason for players to explore the sequel's evolving potential.
