왜 앞서 해보기를 진행하나요?

“Usurper Reborn has a working core — you can play from start to finish right now — but the game's most ambitious systems are still evolving. The 24/7 NPC world simulation, faction warfare, political intrigue, and multiplayer economy all generate emergent stories that I can't fully predict or balance alone. I need real players living in this world to tell me what's compelling, what's broken, and what's missing. Early Access lets the community shape which systems get expanded, what new content gets prioritized, and how the living world develops from here.”

얼마나 오래 앞서 해보기를 진행할 계획인가요?

“Approximately 6-12 months. The timeline depends on community feedback — if players want deeper faction systems or expanded multiplayer features, that extends development. I plan to ship regular updates throughout.”

정식 버전은 앞서 해보기 버전과 어떻게 달라지나요?

“Features and content we plan to add during Early Access:

New Content:

Audio system — sound effects for combat, exploration, and ambient atmosphere (currently the game has no audio)
Enhanced visual presentation — expanded ANSI art for locations, monsters, and events
Additional companion personal quest storylines — currently 4 companions have quests; we plan to expand this
New ring and accessory equipment — the ring/accessory equipment slot currently has limited items
More world events — plagues, festivals, invasions, and seasonal events beyond what currently exists
System Expansions:

Deeper faction system — faction-exclusive quests, inter-faction warfare, and expanded recruitment ceremonies (currently 3 factions exist with basic join/leave and price modifiers)
Expanded multiplayer features — cooperative dungeon exploration, guild systems, and player-driven economy improvements
Monster special abilities in combat — monsters have ability data but it is not yet active during fights
NPC AI expansion — more complex decision-making, new NPC activities, and deeper reactions to player actions based on community feedback
Balance and Tuning:

Combat balance across all 11 classes based on player data
Economy tuning (gold sources, sinks, shop pricing)
Dungeon difficulty curve refinement
NPC world simulation pacing adjustments
Community-Driven:

Features and content prioritized based on player feedback — the living world simulation is designed to support new mechanics, and player demand will influence what gets built next”

앞서 해보기 기간 전후로 게임 가격이 달라지나요?

“We do not plan to change to change the price.”

개발 과정에서 어떻게 커뮤니티와 소통할 계획인가요?

“Active Discord community where players discuss features, report bugs, and vote on development priorities. The game already has a public NPC Observatory dashboard where anyone can watch the living world in real-time — that transparency extends to development. I publish detailed patch notes for every update, and player feedback has already shaped major systems. During Early Access, the community will directly influence which features get built next.”
