If you've been playing The First Descendant let me know by giving the video a like, I'm curious to see how many of you good folks have jumped in so far. Thanks for watching, catch you soon!
Id agree, it was addicting until you get to the part where they want you to grind the same boring encounter a million times for a chance at a drop. Then it just becomes a chore. A mindless chore.
I mean, you could just farm on a rotation. Between catalysts, energy activator, new ult weapons, new descendents, there's always something new to farm. And they all drop from different stages. You don't have to farm a single specific component. Just play the game and it'll all come naturally over time.
@@TherealWottie that is the thing, anything you need to grind come endgame feels monotonous like this to me. Doesn't matter the change is scenery. Perhaps it's a me problem and I'm fine with that.
For a free game it's fun I have a bunch of friends who play and we team up and not payed for any Descendants we have all farmed at least 5 in the last two weeks and prestige at least two each you need to play with friends or it will get boring if your alone or only playing with random players I can't put this game down its like D2 and Warframe had a baby and it's just starting season one starts in 26 days so this is only the pre game
Im 170+ hrs on so far.. been absolutely loving my time still.. made a decked out Healer Yujin build and gonna switch over to other characters i have unlocked..
Only things I really hate are having to pay for colors multiple times for each outfit and the energy activators being $25 in the shop. I don't mind supporting games I enjoy but those 2 things are pure developer greed. Warframe got too complicated, couldn't tell if something was a revision or a bug half of the time, come back after a break and gear being useless, etc, etc.
Addictive you say? I'm more then 240 hours in. I have 11 descendants plus 2 more 'cooking' in research. I'll have Ajax and Kyle ready right after the update tomorrow. I also have fully enhanced 6 weapons. My thunder cage is the only maxed out weapon I have with crits in the 220k per shot. Lepic was my main until I got Ultimate Lepic that is. Grinding Ultimate Bunny right now, 2 pieces to go. I only bought battlepass and extra slots for Descendants since they only give you 10. The perks of being retired, I can play as much as I feel like.
Just crossed the 160 hour mark. I say I am done and then I play another 10 hours. Ammo runs out, match making is poor and wait times for items like energy activators is too long. With that said I love the movement the gun play and the grind for materials. That loop is a pleasure though.
I got a solid 80 hours, my Viessa is fully kitted out, my Thundercage is halfway there. I kinda hit a wall now though, just got bored. I completed the season pass, so went ahead and gave them 10 bucks for that without regret.
Great Vid....I have well over 250 hours into it so far and can't stop playing ,,threw them a bone for battlepass after 30 hours because I think that's fair...lots of fun to be had here with friend's
Im like 15k warframe hours and i was looking forward enjoying descendents but in 3 days i had players reporting me for afk farming when i never was im aussie so i usualy get asia pacific china japan russia matchmaking so i had chinese trollers non stop reporting i had give it up because sony about time ban me over nothing i did so yeah great game if want solo play it only
Really enjoying this game nice change from division 2 which I really enjoy but not much happening at present,hope you do more content on this game maybe a beginners guide be appreciated still some things not sure on thanks 😀👍
This company that made this game doesn't know whether they want to be a PVP game or a PVE game. Nurfing weapons in a game that doesn't have PVP is stupid. Not buffing up the defense stats of female characters because you want them to be sexy and cute but not strong is stupid. Increasing the difficulty of all enemies on normal because it's the second part of your story is stupid. Making the grind so damn long and boring and arduous is stupid. Look at Bungie doing the same thing dragon things out to try to keep people interested but driving people away because we're tired of the monotonous bullshit of having to grind when you don't have money to spend on shit
It's... great. However the fact how the game is poorly balanced, some of the stats for mods on characters and weapons is doing little to nothing and 25% of players is having addiction with bunny cake. Jokes aside, still waiting for defense/shield balance fix. They really choked most of their new playerbase from playing because they made defense/shield useless and MaxHP OP.
I think the kinks in the balance will be knocked out over time but it is also just the nature of looters, there will always be mods and attributes the player base with gravitate too because they are just more powerful until the Devs make a change. Then it will be on to the next mods, attribute lol.

Shoot your gun or use an ability when you land. It won't pun you into the landing animation, and you'll run on.
Close to 200h and love it so far . Especially the part that there's no PVP whiners crying for nerfs all day long .
100%, Not having PvP does lower the toxicity of the player base and in the long run should hopefully mean more buffs then nerfs!
Hell yes, that was so annoying with Destiny
Just an FYI, they changed the outpost cooldown timer to 1 minute, thankfully.

It's a looter shooter, this genre has these grinds

@@bluelofi6309I agree but 0/45 over 2-3 days for one 6% piece on one character feels like a waste of time.
That's why you need to rotate it, instead of grinding the same part over and over

I really tried to enjoy, but I could not put away the feeling that everything I was doing was a worst version of everything I can do in warframe.
Completely get it, It's obvious that The First Descendant has borrowed a huge amount from Warframe so I can see how the grind feels very samey.
