Friday Facts #418 - Space Age release date

[PapaDrom]

The 'DLC' isn't a stand alone game at $35 though right? Anyone who becomes interested based on these features would have to buy both titles together for $70? - and if they do - would they than need to successfully launch a rocket in order to access the Space Age part of the game? I've played the game a lot in my opinion but I never seem to play into the end game on each of my play sessions, I've never launched a rocket. Would it even make sense to invest in Space Age if I never technically got through the initial game. I don't really mind the price of the game since I know the developers are elite tier and that this won't even be the end of it, so much more to come! Love this team.

Rocket launches will be way earlier and cheaper with the expansion, if it's for you will depend on if the features interest you.

Such a person should, in my opinion, first try the demo, then the base game and only then consider the expansion.

In a way. The way to get into space is rockets, but with Space Age active they'll be blue science; see the middle of FFF 381 and the second question of FFF 382.
