[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7681203, member: 20323"] It's clearly a great tool for dungeon crawling with your friends! Everyone who's tested it, all the previews, all the news confirms this. :) Whether or not it's a great tool for crafting stories hasn't been answered yet. I've been closely following the game, the official forums, and as much news as I can find. Despite it being about launch time, we still don't know if DM Mode will allow for dialogue branching. From what gamers who've played around with SCL report, the quest tools in DM Mode are actually pretty limited right now. Also, we don't know if the #1 requested feature for placeable terrain tiles (i.e. create your own map, not use a randomized one) will be in the game or at what point they will be in the game. There are still a surprising number of unknowns. To their credit, the N-Space folks have a good track record, and they've been wonderfully receptive with the fans, so there's no reason not to expect many of these issues/questions will be addressed.
