為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「We want Plague Alchemist to reach players early so that community feedback can directly shape its development. The game’s systems are ambitious, and Early Access gives us the chance to refine mechanics, pacing, and content direction before committing fully to features that may not align with player expectations. Our goal is to ensure the final version reflects both our vision and what players genuinely enjoy.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「It’s difficult to predict precisely, but our current estimate is around 2–4 years. Plague Alchemist is a large, system-driven RPG, and we want to take the time to refine its mechanics, add content, and ensure stability before moving to a full release. We’ll continue development transparently, with regular updates and progress reports throughout the Early Access period.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「In the Early Access version we plan to include the core systems and mechanics of Plague Alchemist — alchemy, exploration, quests, and more — but in a limited scope. Our goal is to make all foundational features fully functional, though initially lighter in content. For the full release we plan to expand these systems substantially, adding new regions, dungeons, storylines, puzzles, and crafting depth to deliver a richer and more complete experience.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「The Early Access version is still in development. At launch, we plan to include the foundational gameplay systems — alchemy, exploration and progression — along with the first major region of the world, the first dungeon, and a selection of core crafting and quest content. It will represent a solid but incomplete experience focused on testing and refining the main gameplay loop.」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「Yes. Plague Alchemist will be offered at a lower price during Early Access as a way to thank early supporters and justify the incomplete experience. We plan to increase the price over time, but only when the game is in a state to justify this. After Early Access ends, the game will be at the full price.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「Community feedback will play a central role throughout Early Access. We plan to involve players through active discussions on Discord, gathering input on balance, new features, and overall direction. Major updates will be influenced by community priorities, with changelogs and devlogs published regularly to show progress and the reasoning behind design decisions. Our goal is to make Plague Alchemist evolve transparently, shaped by the people actually playing it.」
