    Mess, one big mess. More loading screens than actual gameplay, freezing/skipping every second during exploration/combat, outdated graphics, laggy as hell-menu opening/scrolling trough menus/ opening maps/conversations takes forever. Combat is like turn based forced into real time action=even more mess. After some time (advanced in second atc) game freezing and blue screening like every 2Mess, one big mess.

Quests arent any advanced but still may glitch and cannot be completed. Probably worst pc port i ever played on PS4.… Expand

    I am going this game a 1 star for one reason, but it's a darn big one. On the PS4 the text is effectively unreadable. I am talking maybe 6-8pt on a 40inch TV. I am sitting on the ground under 2m away from my TV and squinting during the character creation and setup. The text for the opening movie was even smaller, which is pretty impressive, I guess.

    I can't speak to the gameplay. I literally can't play the game and because I bought it digitally, no refund. Thank goodness I only paid $10, but be warned.    … Expand

    This game crashes more than any game I've ever played. I'm not able to finish the last battle because it keeps messing up. I've tried 3 times now and it does the same thing each time. Characters just standing there and nothing works. Nothing but problems from start to finish.

    A severe lack of polish. [Oct 2016, p.94]

    Sword Coast Legends is a decent CRPG let down by an overall lack of imagination and irritating difficulty spikes.

    As you come to grips with the tactical combat and progression systems, Sword Coast Legends may start to grow on you. For those who can see past its long loading times and other shortcomings, there’s an RPG here well worth the price of entry. However, for casual fans of the genre looking for something upbeat, this n-Space swansong is likely to disappoint.
