Hey!

I just found out about KSP and really want to get into it. However I’m a bit a confused about the best way to begin. Here are some questions about the setup:

  1. Apparently KSP2 isn’t all that great and I should just get the original game?

  2. Given I did that, should I get DLCs? Do they add meaningful content or are they just overlapping with mods?

  3. Mod recommendations? Not looking to make the game needlessly complicated, but just the kinda mods that a beginner would consider improvements.

  4. Install method? Steam Linux version, direct download Linux version or windows version through Proton?

Thanks!

PS. KSP is on Steam sale until 11.9!

    I’ve played previously on Linux using the standard steam installation. I am pretty sure you can use CKAN mod manager on Linux, as I’ve had enough aesthetics mods to make the game look good. I’ve never bought the DLC, I always felt the standard game is pretty good, but maybe it’s nostalgia since I’ve played since legacy versions. Personal preference but I hope it helped you :)

      Yeah it appears to be available from AUR at least.
