Sword Coast Legends Future plans


Sword Coast Legends is the custom multiplayer experience game, it's still been a struggle to appraise the other elements of the game. How much potential it have?
Let’s see how Director of SCL and President of n-Space, Dan Tudge talks:
"Early user impressions for Sword Coast Legends have been polarizing. While many players love it, it is clear that for many, Sword Coast Legends did not meet their expectations. For those who have expressed disappointment in the game, I have just one thing to say: "We hear you." We are a very small, independent development team, and we would not have made it this far without you. We thank you for your continued support. In D&D, the party is everything, and you are the best party to have, by far.
As much and as long as we've labored to launch SCL, this is really just step one, a foundation for an even greater experience we have always intended to improve and expand. Our goal has always been to put Sword Coast Legends into the hands of would-be adventurers and to work with them to improve that experience. We have an aggressive list of content and updates planned for the near-term."
The Director went on to point out a huge list of planned updates and features from now until the end of the year, touching on features and plot elements relevant to the current Dungeons & Dragons theme of a return to the Underdark. E.g. the story taking place for D&D with the Rage of Demons Saga.
It's great that the team has this much content and so many new features already planned with firm release dates. But always to jump into a brand new game, will you feel  painful?  If you discover that it isn't quite everything you imagined? Will you buy it? Fortunately the developers have plans in place to remedy the game's rough beginning, all without charging current players an additional dime.
Let’s look at the list, then you can make your decision:
