The First Descendant is actually pretty good
The First Descendant is actually a fairly decent game. It just needs more content added to it.

Don't really have any problems with it. Game play is smooth. I think there should be better ways of unlocking cosmetics though. I am enjoying it so far. I'm still in early game though.

Anyone else have similar thoughts?

Needs more challenging gameplay too. Better bosses outside of Void Intercepts.

It was decent enough for me as I played through the campaign. Now that I'm done with the campaign, I don't find anything compelling to keep playing.

However, I don't know if I'd like to play through the game now. It seems like if you are new and trying to play multiplayer, you will just get paired up with overpowered high level characters farming items and making your combat encounters trivial. That seems like really stupid design.

Yea it's not a masterpiece but it's not garbage either and the gameplay loop is quite fun. Ofc there are some issues with the game but I can overlook those as long as the gameplay keeps being fun and Im not forced into FOMO or extreme powercreep with things that are nearly impossible to get as f2p.

So yea, I like it so far and we will see what Nexon does with the game in the future.

I think it would be pretty cool if they added new missions or operations that would require large groups of around 8-12 players.

It sounds like it needs more endgame content.

I love how there are many side objectives such as unlocking Descendants, building an ultimate weapon or building stats. It's a new game so they will most likely focus on profits whilst it's new but I'd think there will be more events and unlocks/freebies later.

More challenges = less money from me :lunar2019piginablanket: I'm not a 12yo requiring an external validation in form of pixel-challenges, I'm playing for easy mode run and gun.

It is pretty good. I don't understand the people complaining about not enough content or not enough endgame... you do realise the game's barely been around long, right? Patience is a lost concept, apparently.

My only issue with the game so far (and it's a big one) is how easy it is and then suddenly you hit a ridiculous wall. There's no transition to things getting more difficult, it goes from you killing everything in 1-2 hits barely taking a scratch when surrounded, to suddenly you're getting one shotted by everything and doing no damage. It's weird scaling that really, really sours the experience. I feel like now I have to farm for days and days just to kill Devourer because until this point, gear absolutely did not matter, now I apparently have to have best in slot everything? Come on.

Not exactly easy to gauge your gear when the only two outcomes are "I'm dying instantly to enemies 10 miles away" or "I'm invincible and everything I breathe towards dies".
