为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“We are a small indie studio with incredibly large ambitions of bringing a deep, feature-rich and satisfying MMO into VR. Since VR is still a relatively new platform with unique challenges, every step of our development journey the past few years has involved gaining invaluable feedback from our incredible community and experimenting with thoughts and ideas that they’ve contributed.

We feel that Early Access on Steam is a great way for us to continue that collaboration with our community. It not only gives players a chance to help shape the development of our game, but it also gives us a platform to explore ideas on to make Zenith the best VR MMO possible.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“The early access period will be roughly a year based on our current roadmap.

Leaving early access signifies that we consider the initial “core experience” to be fully polished. However, we will continue developing Zenith for many years to come with a huge roadmap, and treating it as a live service title.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“The full version of Zenith will have more polish and feature deeper and more fleshed out crafting systems, player housing, more avatar customization options, instanced dungeons, PVP, and more.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“Currently, most core features of the game have been implemented with hundreds of hours of content, a massive open world that spans vast and diverse locations, crafting, a huge variety of quests, robust social features like guilds, parties, and friends.

We believe it's the largest world that's been built specifically for VR that's launched.

It’s already a game that thousands of players have fallen in love with and enjoyed.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“The price may increase moderately when we release.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“We primarily use Discord, emails, our website and social media to engage with our community. We regularly send out surveys to gain valuable ideas and feedback about things that we are working on and spend a lot of time directly engaging in conversations with our community members. We also have open idea and suggestion channels in our Discord and a website that allows players to vote on ideas and helps prioritize what we work on next.

One thing that we try to do is to always keep our public roadmap updated with what we’ll be working on next and work with the community on how that is prioritized. We also work with select groups to test features before being released publicly, all the while gathering valuable feedback through surveys and discussions with them.”
