早期アクセスにした理由

“Early Access will give me the opportunity to get feedback from players. It's not easy to balance a Real-Time Strategy game, especially if there are many factions. And Eternal Empires will ultimately have 16 factions, so I will need a lot of feedback from community on balancing and pointing out bugs if there are any. I will regularly update the game until it's finished.”

このゲームは大体どのくらいの期間早期アクセスですか？

“I will not do the full release until I feel the game is finished. That might take a while since there is a long list of features on my 'To do' list. My current estimate is that it will take about 6 months.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“More features, more content and more polished look.

That means more factions, each faction will have unique units and bonuses, more map options, multiplayer gameplay, modding API and more mod friendly game structure(less hardcoded and more data-driven) and more polished UI and graphics.

Also, all factions will be rebalanced with the help of community feedback.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“The game is very stable and shouldn't have any technical issues.

At day one of Early Access Eternal Empires will have:
-skirmish mode with procedural map generation
-great UI for micro-management of units
-resource management
-base building


The game already has high replayability due to procedural map generation.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“Yes, price will change after Early Access based on community feedback. The price will not change during Early Access.”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“I am looking forward to working with the community on a number of things such as:

New feature suggestions:
I have many ideas myself but I would like to hear all the suggestions from experienced RTS players.

Game balance:
Since there will be many units and factions to balance, a lot of player feedback will be needed.

Bug detection:
I hope there are as few bugs as possible during Early Access, but if there are some the best way to find them is through player feedback.”
