为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“I want to use Early Access as a way for players to jump in now and play over time as the game grows. In addition, Early Access players can provide essential feedback that would help make Shale into the most enjoyable experience it can be, beyond what I already have planned for it.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“I'm planning to release 1.0 in approximately 24 months. Depending on how much additional content I will be adding outside of what I have planned, this time may be longer.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“Shale is still missing a lot of content that I am planning to add during the Early Access lifecycle. The intention is to add new locations, encounters, two more enemy factions, NPCs, skins, unlocks, damage effects, a lot of enemies, a lot of bosses, combat balancing, increasing the level cap, map variety and much more.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“Version 0.21. At this point the game will feel a bit repetitive and slow with variety, but so far it currently has a level cap of 25, 7 enemy types, 3 bosses, trading, crafting and more. The core systems are implemented and there is enough for players to do so they can get a rough understanding of what Shale is like and the potential it has.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“Yes, as content, features and updates are added to Shale, the price will gradually increase.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“I'm requesting player feedback on the Steam forums and on the Shale Discord Server. These avenues will allow me to communicate directly with players, get the most out of their opinions about Shale and make improvements that would benefit the gameplay experience.”
