The First Descendant - 10 Things It DOESN'T TELL YOU

Available now for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC, The First Descendant is a game of many interconnected systems that demand your attention. If you're coming from Destiny 2, it may seem very familiar, but newcomers may feel a little lost, even as the game methodically lays it out.

There's a lot to learn, starting with the fact that all Descendants - the cast of playable characters - can be earned by playing the game (and without spending money). However, there are also Modules to enhance with resources and keeping things like mod capacity in mind. Then there's the Mastery Rank system, different ammo types, or how to get your character to stop chattering in battle.

Here are ten tips and tricks you should know when playing The First Descendant and how to make the most of the experience.

It's kinda sad how people compare this game so much to Destiny while it is more comparable to Warframe.

I literally stayed up all night playing… I didn’t even notice the time lol

[AceFire]

Okay but literally everysingle point of this "10 things it doesn't tell you" are "literally" explained in the main campaign, not even a side quest, main story quests

1.- the ultimate characters are overpriced
2.- paints are one time use only
3.- the publisher company was fined for changing drop rates to 0% on some items to insentivise loot box sales in real time
4.- the bosses had a system on the beta where we would've had to farm keys to access the fights that were gonna be time gated
5.- they added events on the open world that require at least 1 descendant of every element to activate and get rewards from it
6.- reactors have no system increase their level but guns do
7.- ultimate weapons are crafted at level 1 and need a mandatory ion phase extractor
8.- ultimate weapons need multiple copies to be crafted to get their special effects fully upgraded and sometimes for this effects to be useful
9.- there was gonna be a gacha system for the painting
10.- there isn't a single character skin on the battle pass

If everyone stops being so critical and comparing games, you may actually enjoy new ones.

I get it. You guys love destiny and warframe. But if you never give new games a chance to form their own identity and stop comparing every single detail to something else. You'll never be happy and enjoy what you have.

This is why games go dead that people enjoy. Most of you can't let go of games from over 10 years ago, and refuse to believe that a different game can be better in any way. If you don't like it, cool, it's FREE AND YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY IT 😂.

Every single game where i qued with randoms they spent the whole game crying about "destiny would do this" or "warframe did that". I ended up just leaving the game. What's the point of playing if you spend the entire time wishing you were playing something else? Lmao, GO PLAY WARFRAME AND DESTINY! Let the new players who want something different enjoy the game

Monetization wise, it's almost exactly like Warframe. And it's a helluva lot less confusing to new players as well.

Why does it say Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater at 3:33 😂

[Kemet]

I'm really enjoying it right now. Only thing is there's no log out option. Also love the fact I've got cross save, xbox was down last night so I just logged in on my ps5 started were I left. 😊

2:52 In the decendant module system if you match manufacturer to the background symbol you get a reduction in cost. R1 C4 and R2 C5 in the one shown at timestamp.

As a long time Destiny vet and an off and on Warframe player, First Descendant has to be my new favorite gane. Itself is its own game, but it holds many features from the other games I've played and because of that it makes it feel so natural, I love it.

Bro hit me with a Dark side quote "some considered to be unnatural" 3:38

I guess I grew up reading all the tutorials, and people just skip it all nowadays. The game literally tells you all of this through it's endless tutorial screens. It is very tedious but it's all there

[iviatrix]

do us all a favor and record without the music.

4 things this video doesn’t tell you:
1- This game has bugs at the level of Assassin’s Creed Unity and Fallout 76.
2- The servers doesn’t work.
3- The amount of crashes surpasses even the worst game ever made.
4- The FPS drops are astounding and noteworthy.

[jakevicknair]

the battle chatter is a nice detail just lower the volume and tweak your audio. otherwise yea if you here it over explosion and stuff it might grab your attention more than youde like.

[JP_Nathaniel]

Can't wait when they add a mechanic where you prople yourself forward by crouching and jumping. Perhaps they could call it prople jump or something 🤔

[MrMightyZ]

It would appear that these mod-you-wools are very important indeed!
I’ve only found modules so far but I’m keeping my eyes peeled for these fancy mod-you-wools, by golly and you bet I am!
