HOLY SHIT. KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM IS FUCKING FREE?!??!?!
it looks like they're either abandoning KSP or someone fucked up big time, either way you can LITERALLY GET IT FOR FREE ON THE WEBSITE RIGHT NOW ACCORDING TO THIS REDDIT POST
you ONLY need to add the email thats in the post. and then you have FREE kerbal space program. YES THIS INCLUDES THE DLC!!
this game is a very fun and goofy rocket-building sandbox/space simulator and it has a robust modding community. normally it's like $40 for the base game and $70 for all content. if you are concerned about storage it's like maybe 5 GB? not a big game at all. anyways it is LITERALLY FREE GET IT NOW

Kerbal Space Program was once afflicted by a bug the fans dubbed the "Deep Space Kraken", whereby if you travelled far enough from the origin of the game's coordinate system, floating point rounding errors would cause your spacecraft's components to become misaligned and/or clip into each other, resulting in the craft falling apart or exploding for no obvious reason.
The bug was later fixed by defining the active spacecraft itself as the origin of the game's coordinate system. In effect, the spacecraft no longer moves; instead, the spacecraft remains stationary and the entire universe moves around it. Owing to how relativity works, to the player this is indistinguishable from the spacecraft moving about within a fixed coordinate system, and it ensures that the body of the craft and its components will always be modelled with maximal precision.
While elegant, this solution introduced a new problem: it was now possible, by doing certain stupid tricks with relativistic velocities, to introduce floating point rounding errors to everything except the active spacecraft. In extreme cases, this could result in the destruction of the entire observable universe.
Some might call this one of those situations where the solution proves to be worse than the problem. I call it a perfect expression of what Kerbal Space Program is truly about.

At least when Bethesda makes a broken game it’s just buggy, not genuine fucking malware
