Perché l'accesso anticipato?

“Virtual Reality brings a whole new level of immersion into video games, unparalleled by every other format that preceded it so far. Traditionally RPG games have been all about immersion, since they often put a lot of effort to transfer us in their fictional worlds. We see Virtual Reality as a great opportunity to literally transfer players in our world of The SoulKeeper®.

However with the many advantages VR brings, it also brings a lot of uncertainties, and it still remains uncharted waters for game developers, since we all work to find what works best and what doesn't.

VR game development is still a collective effort, and as such we believe the best way to approach it is by directly involving our audience in the development process. With Early Access not only you support indie developers like us financially, which in its own helps create a better game as you enable us to dedicate even more resources back into the development, but you also support us by participating in the evolution of the game. With Early Access we can establish a direct line of communication with you, hear you out, exchange feedback and ideas, and finally bring you the good looking, fun to play and fully immersive RPG you have been looking for in VR.”

Per quanto tempo questo gioco rimarrà in accesso anticipato?

“We estimate to have this game in Early Access through 2018, although we do want and will work to bring it to completion earlier than that. We understand speed is essential, especially to a demanding audience, but quality of a polished product is our first priority.”

Quali saranno le differenze fra la versione completa e quella in accesso anticipato?

“The full version will be considerably larger than the Early Access version in all aspects. More specifically, the full version will feature:

• Multiple playable characters, each with their set of skills and gameplay mechanics
  
• Varied environments from different parts of Gerindak, the SoulKeeper's world
  
• Interactable NPCs and additional enemy types
  
• Deeper and richer story

”

Qual è lo stato attuale della versione in accesso anticipato?

“The Early Access will be fully playable and will offer a variety of combat styles and mechanics, including melee combat, spell casting, combat with staff, ranged. It will also feature 3 large areas, with two to three levels each, making up a total of 8 levels, each with varying degrees of interaction that include puzzle solving, Boss fights, item looting and interaction with NPCs.”

Il prezzo del gioco varierà durante e dopo l'accesso anticipato?

“Given the considerable amount of additional features the full version will have, it will also undergo a slight price increase when compared to the Early Access, however all users who purchase the Early Access will receive the full version at no additional cost.”

Come pensi di coinvolgere la Comunità durante il processo di sviluppo?

“To ensure an easy and as direct as possible communication with the community, we will be engaging our users in multiple ways, including through full utilization of the Steam Community Hub for our game, The SoulKeeper® official forums, periodical newsletters, dedicated email addresses for the purpose of communication, developer blogs and Twitch streaming sessions through which we can discuss updates and features.”
