為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「I chose to release in Early Access to allow myself to take more time with the game's development. This will allow me to further develop the core gameplay loop and also give players a voice on the shape and direction of the game's growth. Through Early Access I hope to gain a better scope of the player experience when including/excluding certain mechanics that can supplement or disrupt the flow of the gameplay.

I understand that the nature of a fantasy open world survival exploration game should be accessible to a wide demographic of both younger and older audiences, so I want the player to be able to jump in for five minutes and enjoy it or have the option to dig deep for hours refining their methods for survival. But that takes balance and it also takes time.

It includes multiplayer options, core survival mechanics, eat and drink to endure the elements, character customization, base building, weapon and armor crafting, a solid variety of enemy types to discover and a massive map to explore, which will be ever changing as development continues. 」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「Price will not change when we leave early access」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「As a one-man dev team, I would like to utilize Steam Discussions primarily for player feedback. The goal is to foster open communication regarding improvements to existing mechanics, bug notifications and balance issues, as well as maintaining an open environment to discuss suggestions for future implementation.

I have considered using a Discord channel to gather player feedback, but that would require a significant amount of time and effort just to keep it moderated for all to have a safe, friendly experience there, and I would rather put that time into active development.」
