Basically the same thing that happened with Kerbal Space Program 2 - outrageous system requirements with only minor graphical improvements, stripped down gameplay vs the original game (Obviously this is Paradox so the intent is DLC).

I haven't checked on KS2 since release so don't @ me if they fixed it.

yeah I thought it was funny when I saw an ad for KSP2 like "COMING SOON: SCIENCE!"

I absolutely agree that the performance is dogcrap and the graphics aren't a big upgrade from the original (at playable framerates) but the gameplay is definitely not stripped down from the base game without DLCs; on the other hand, some things from some of the DLCs have been implemented into the new game along with stuff we haven't seen at all.
