Varför Early Access?

“We’re releasing SpiritVale in Early Access to involve players in shaping the game while it’s still evolving. Community feedback on class balance, boss mechanics, and world pacing is vital to improving the experience. We want players who loved classic MMOs like Ragnarok Online to feel that same magic again, just with modern improvements and polish over time.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“We estimate staying in Early Access for 6–12 months, depending on community feedback and how quickly we can refine the remaining content, systems, and UI polish.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“For the full version we plan to include:
- More advanced class specializations and skill trees
- New biomes and dungeons
- Bosses with unique mechanics and patterns
- Fully implemented controller and Steam Deck support
- QoL improvements like better onboarding, UI polish, and smoother gameplay flow
- Cosmetic systems and supporter bonuses
- Potential events and seasonal content
Our goal is to deepen both gameplay and presentation while ensuring everything is more intuitive and rewarding.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“SpiritVale is fully playable and currently includes:
- Five base classes, each with a distinct skill tree
- Over 100 weapons, armor pieces, headgear, and accessories
- A card system for customising gear, with over 100 cards currently implemented
- Headgear crafting, using biome-specific monster materials
- Multiplayer with party system
- 20+ maps across multiple biomes (forest, desert, caves, sanctum)
- 10+ bosses, each with themed drops and summon conditions
Core systems like skill progression, class switching, and loot fully functional
Some bosses still use placeholder behavior, and content polish (like tutorials, audio, and visual FX) is ongoing.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“The game will remain free to play.
We plan to introduce cosmetic purchases and optional subscription bonuses (e.g. XP boost, inventory space) to support ongoing development, but all gameplay content will remain accessible for free.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Community feedback is a huge part of SpiritVale’s direction. We’ll be using:
- An official Discord server for bug reports, suggestions, and roadmap input
- Reddit and other social platforms for broader community discussion
- Patch notes and dev updates to communicate upcoming changes
- Regular feedback cycles focused on balance, class feel, and usability
We want the community to grow with us and leave their mark on the world.”
