Early Access?

[BlueVelvet]

Will this one be early access or will it be a full release in 2025?

We are aiming for a full release, but while we are on the subject - would you prefer early access sooner?

[Col Hanzaplast]

We prefer early access NOW ;-)

[Laicus]

Yes, we want it right now!!!

I mean....a (short and sweet) Early Access to get a bit a feedback to make the full release even better sounds good to me. It might be something to consider if you can make it work and it isn't too impactful for you guys as a studio (I prefer my devs happy, healthy and not overworked due to crunch).

But you guys would know best since you went through it before.

Can Wait :D

Thanks for the kind words. The topic of Early Access is not an easy one. Yes, production-wise, it really kicked us in the back during CG1. At the same time, I am absolutely certain that without EA and player feedback, I wouldn’t have had the courage to make many decisions that ultimately had a significant impact on the quality and popularity of Chernobylite. And in the end, that’s what matters most to us – for our game to be as good as it can possibly be.

I loved the first one so much that I would find it hard to resist buying early access for the sequel this even though i'm the type of person who likes to wait for new releases. This looks like a mash-up of skyrim, stalker, and elex and i'm completely here for it!!

Yes ! Absolutly.
Part 1 was full of bugs during early access. I'm sure the game wouldn't have been such a success without Early Access.

Alright, I think I can say this officially now. Once again, you’ve managed to convince us, and we’re going to run through Early Access with you one more time to make sure that everything we’re doing (especially FPP) is something you truly enjoy and is of the right quality.

Early access is usefull because players, can give you some feedback, and sometime players found things like bugs that devs forgot.

I think it's a great idea to let their fan base make choices and let them providence their feedback because players doesn't see the same way as a dev.

( like the director Vince Zampella and the new battlefield labs for bf7)
