เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“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.”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“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.”

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“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.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“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.”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“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.”

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“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.”
