It's hilarious that they're using the copies "sold" as the main focus of all the positive articles. No shit it sold well, it's literally free.

People spending OVER $100 for cosmetics on the RELEASE DAY for a game they don't even know they'll fucking enjoy is nothing short of madness. Then suddenly people wonder why quality within the gaming industry standard is on a downward trend.

that 7.7hr review is 100% accurate, They are intentionally making the prices on items weird amounts so you are forced to buy 2 sets of coins and always have some left over to get you buy another set

The reason a lot of unreal games look the same is because they're all using the same lighting, shadows, ambient occlusion, reflections etc. solutions. You can change how a lot of the assets look and have totally original art, but when all of these effects are being done in the exact same way over and over, people start to notice.

The top selling game on Steam is a $0 game full of micropayments that is rated 50%. The absolute state of gaming, folks.

"Top seller" - A free game that technically cannot be legally classed as sold since its...... free......

To be honest, I don´t understand the transaction point. I've played the game for 40.9 hours now, levelled my character to level 40 and maxed my gear to 100 and still don't know what you can buy in the shop besides skins. Personally, I've never had the feeling of being forced to pay in order to progress in any way. EDIT: I reached a point where you have to grind like a mental to achieve a single weapon part and it´s ridiculous. I changed my mind.

"launch problems go away after a week".... Lords of the fallen proceeding to take that as a challenge.

Waiting for servers to come back online and their Discord server is just slowmode with 6 HOUR COOLDOWN. LMAO

I'll say this, as someone with 2100 hours in Warframe all the systems in this game made perfect sense. Almost every system is such a slight difference from the way Warframe does it that the learning curve was basically zero. That being said, Warframe is really bad for new players and without that experience this one will be too. Anyone not familiar will need to take a bit of time to really look at how everything works because there isn't much in-game training that gives you enough information. Regarding build times: TFD is like a dream compared to Warframe where weapons take 12 hrs to craft and new Warframes take a total of 4 days because it's 12 hours to craft the pieces then 3.5 days to assemble the pieces into the frame.

Just want to say, old games used to cater to specific audiences. I'll give very broad examples. If Rockstar catered to open world games with crime elements they would cater to that market and that market only. If Ubisoft catered to History buffs with a bit of fantasy intertwined, they would only cater to those specific type of people. Nowadays games try to cater to everyone instead of focusing on their fan base, which creates games who are Jack's of all trades but masters of none. I don't even know if this has anything to do with the video, I'm kind of drunk but hey that's what I'm talking about I guess

If any thing I think they need to increase the range of the grapple hook and make it infinite use rather than waiting on it to recharge

"Game is the topseller on Steam" *Literally did not 'sell' a single copy*

Can we just start calling it "Bethesdaing" or "Gearboxing" enemies when all the difficulty changes is their HP or armor?

I was one person who thought I didnt get my purchase but it actually appears in the mail in the item shop. Theres 2 different mail systems

Before judging to hard jump in the wave mission, it gets exponentially harder to complete. Do it 2 times, and then the third tier wave will show you how hard the mobs could be.

still waiting for servers to come back up

the shaders being consumable is a pretty dick move

when you talked about input reading i immediately thought of borderlands with the psycho moving his head around as a joke about that lol one of the funniest side quests in the game.

I keep getting a "out of video memory error" issue with the game. I have a 3080ti with a i9 13900k so thats def not it. I have tried a lot of steps to fix the issue and cant get anywhere...

People are not getting the fact that Warframe premium currency can be acquired by playing, getting things and selling them, while in TFD don't have such option, either you farm it or buy it to skip the grind, while in Warframe, while you play and learn about the game, you can literally get things you don't need at the start, sell those, and get the premium currency to buy things you need currently.

Not gonna lie, I’m having fun with it and haven’t spent a dime

You know something is wrong when the reactor which is use to double the mod capacity of descendants is 20$, on warframe you get 4 free per season pass (also free) and some every weekend. Also pretty much if bought with platinum which can be farm with trading.

Warframe used crafting times quite well. Starting the weapon or frame craft was nice point where you can end your session and it builds up anticipation for the next session because you know you will be able to play with new toys.

Free should have it's own "sales" category

why do people "forget" that warframe has 10+ years behind it, and when it launched it had 1 mission type or something silly like that.

The only issues I have is the server stability, microtransactions are insane.

Literally got a First descendent ad on this video. LOL

I've always felt that reviews need a "meh" option.

the most accurate description i have heard is "watered down warframe"

I felt the way you did about melee and snipers at first But I've got a sword now and a fun sniper build with plans to take it to the ammo resupply guy so I'm loving it

Does anybody have any recommended settings for a 3080ti? As optimization been an issue for me at times .

Just wait till people find out the loot drop % are actually lower then it says

He didn't even mention the item we need to upgrade our character and weapons, that shit is 20 bucks a pop or 3% drop chance on a 20-30min process

Warframe had the perfect system down to the the T. You can get a shotgun build and be fine in a mission because the weapon is viable and you can compensate with abilities, but in TFD your shotguns are only heavy type architypes with low ammo reserves and abysmal range.

Talking to the npcs they have around 4 seconds of animation that is on replay

5:30 thats where individual approaches spice up the game! I've been using the freeze character right so if I pop my ice floor ability as the shield mobs walk towards me they become frozen, dip behind and BOOM take them out! My problem with the game is that I find the UI and displays quite messy and too much on the screen at once given time, it feels like there is too much going on for my smooth brain.

>go into F2P East Asian game expecting it not to be slop >look inside >slop

the faint echo in the background on the recent clips make me feel skitzo lmao

i've download the game just before it's release and started yesterday, i keep having lag and sometiem freeze, i've checked the requirement and updated my Graphic card piltos etc . . everythig is fine not perfect but enough to make the game run correctly, so i wonder why i have such problem .

I love how I got an Ad for The First Descendents in the middle of this video, right when he made the face about the game having "more purchaseable microtransactions than actual gameplay mechanics included in the game itself." Gotta love KZfaq

I've got an 8 year old setup with a GTX 960 and a 6th gen I5 in, the only perfomance issues I've experienced where while the game was still loading the shaders for the first time. The games performance is incredible given how good the grafics are!

I wish free to play games would have the ability to fully earn in-game stuff that would enable them to get additional items(which I think this has) but then also have a $50 or $60 option that will unlock all the descendants now and moving forward. Skins would still be paid, but I think a lot of people would do that and then be less upset about having to buy everything.

Granblue has 2 new bosses, one is Lucilius Zero where he decided to be blue at start

It’s Nexon… what did anyone expect?

lmaoooo got a First Descendant ad before this video

I feel like they could’ve done so much more for the intercept boss fights. Make it more of a raid. Spawn in a map, fight through mini bosses/minions leading to the giant boss. That would make endgame so much more fun.

You CAN play a full sniper/shotgun/launcher build. With the character enzo who gives you permanent ammo

FYI, you can grapple TO the shield and melee it mid reel-in. Knocks the shield guy down. I never even tried to shoot the shield. I found this by accident but I was already grapple/meleeing enemies before the first shield guy showed. It's the most satisfying part of the game IMO.

Fun fact-; The term Mobs has been around since the 80s and referred to a wave of enemies (a mob) attacking a player in a text based game. ^^; Sorry if this is weird to share, I just find things like this really interesting.

This might sound crazy but you can also grind all characters like ultimate bunny. The thing that I hate the most right now is that when ever I do a 3rd boss fight I get nothing making grinding for ultimate bunny or any parts at that almost impossible and it’s not even like a 35% chance you will get it it’s about 2 to 1 percent chance and if you don’t get it you will have to wait smh

As anyone who has played can contest: *_Fuck that one shield boss that you have to shoot the small bots rotating in his shield._*

why dont we all know that we can craft descendants for free instead of paying? EVERY descendants including ultimate ones. Its just gonna take a little time.. Instead of review bombing this fun game.

Every time a streamer or any news outlets says Elden Ring is bad or getting beaten by another game in it's numbers always ends up back firing them badly soo don't say anything negative about it

There is a variety of enemies compared to some games you have the void battles with the huge enemy and each map seems to have different enemies/status effects. I have had alot of fun with bunny but would like decent priced skins to buy

so this is why we got the Iron Banner this week..

Why anyone trusts something from Nexon is beyond me. Not touching this game because i know were its going to lead.

Not me genuinely enjoying the game 10 hours in. The only real complaints being the servers otherwise the game is wide open for FTP enjoyers. It also tells you exactly where specific materials can be found for crafting which helps focus the grind. Story isn’t Balders gate 3 but standard like 6/10.

This game is a blast honestly having a lot of fun with my friends good to pop in and just play aimlessly

Shitting on they guy that pointed out the how they are selling premium currency in quantities that don't match with the in game purchase costs while missing the point just because he didn't wait a few hours to post the review.... ouch

When he was talking about the enemies i agreed till I did the wave missions then it becomes crazy how hard the enemies get

For Melee, they characterized Sharen as a Melee Assassin (Well Close Range I guess), there is no melee in this game. I was so freaking disappointed. I wanted to use main melee damage but you can't. there are no melee weapons and everyone has the same 5 second melee CD.

My favorite part of the story is when they were unsure if there could be an ironheart inside a moon sized ironheart. I mean, what else could be in there?

The ingame purchases for money does go through it takes a minute or so, but it goes to the players inbox and they gotta claim it, not just expect it to be added right away

The lack of visual progression in a self proclaimed looter shooter really bothers me. One of the key factors of loot games is making your character look cooler over time with badass gear to show off to other players. That is the whole reason for town hubs. When you make the cosmetics mtx only it removes that aspect of the game. Not to mention they are not armor sets that you can transmog. They are just skins. So everybody is gonna either look default or have the same exact premium skins on. We already see this in game with the bunny skin. Destiny allows mixing and matching of armor sets which allows you to express yourself. This game just relies on cleavage to sell some bs skin. Soulless.

Shot guns and snipers need more ammo. Movement I agree is very fun. The ability's I actually like a lot it feels more like a heldivers with special abilitie.

As a player of Warframe for quite some time back in 2015 onwards, I easily noticed that this game on the first few minutes looks like a mock-up of all the pre-made assets from Unreal Engine like insert "Mediterranean House", "Sci-fi object" etc etc etc. Compared to Warframe where the Void with is filled with Orokin's regal Architecture with white, and gold, Corpus' advanced scientific atmosphere but not dystopian, and the grineer which is basically rugged, and junk-like efficient warframe had set in place a concept, and lore already with the environment. While this one the only thing I can think of it is Metal Gear where it's a mix of sci-fi and contemporary either that or just a mash-up of all assets, all in all it's like no concept artist was even involved to set a tone about this game. To compare it with Warframe which was also free, this one just looks like a procrastinated "hey you can copy my homework but don't copy all of it" type of stuff.

People actually bought a $100 skin. It's crazy.

TFD reminds me a bit of Defiance, pretty fun with some frustrating issues, running out of ammo in the wave based modes is a massive pain in the arse, some of the areas are confusing and so forth.

What terms other than “sold” or “purchased “do we use then?

People say this game is pay-to-win, but can't you buy weapons with cash? If you can't buy it, it's not pay-to-win. Even if I give you $10,000, I want a powerful weapon.

You can in fact use snipers as scout and tactical rifles. Also it's day one essentially

I'm 9.5hrs into the game, and I haven't spent a single dollar. It's been VERY fun to play and the only "pay wall" I've hit, is having to wait 4hrs for my ultimate weapons research, in that time, I played a ton of missions and leveled up even more. Never noticed it.

wish all the "micro" transactions were half what they currently are.. £70 is a shit load of money for 1 character

Me and my buddy had to grind a long dungeon over 20 times for a item that says it's 20%

The name NEXON is enough reason to never touch this game for me.

The game has a solid foundation to build up from, high potential for enhancements and feedback.

I Died when you demonstrated "input reading" PTSD

"you shoot the shield and then you shoot them" being boring design is true, especially after you've experienced a better similar design. The Jackals in Halo are not "shoot the shield and then shoot them." They are "shoot the gap in their shield and then shoot them." This seems like a bullshit argument up front, I know, but I assure you it's not. The phycological effect of finding the gap in a target's defense to create a momentary stumbling weakness is very satisfying and very different from the meat, especially afainst an enemy that's otherwise faster and more accurate than most other enemies and only hunkers down to use the shield part of the time. Most of the time other designers fall into worse versions of that riot shield enemy design by making them bigger, slowler, stronger, and quadruple health to turn them into meat punching bags with a spring loaded cabinet door that stops you from punching it (the shield). It's boring as hell and anoying. It feels like trying to put away dishes and every time you bend down to grab another one from the dishwasher the cabinet closes on you so you need to open it up again. And there are SO MANY DISHES. It's boring. It's dumb. It's a chore, and they always walk so slowly toward you with the shield out. Why is the Jackal so much better? You may ask. They come in fast so you don't have time to dread the interaction, and instead they appear almost startling you. You don't shoot the impervious shield, but rather catch the skill shot and feel like a badass. Even if some games have the stagger point on the shield be just as skill heavy of a shot, the psychology of hitting the womprat difficult shot is so much better than the shield itself. And once they're staggered they go down easily. One shot to the gap and one shot to the head and its over. No sense of it being a chore because it's too quick. So then they throw like 3 or 4 of them at you, which on paper is just 4x th health, right? But phycology isn't on paper. The sense of "FUCK YEAH!" with every pop-pop-down on the Jackals compounds with each one rather than the meat versions just soaking damage like a punching bag. Anyway, this is another reason why Halo is one of the greates series ever made. Im sure Asmongold would agree of he read this comment.

You can get around the shield guys, you just need to use a skill and it will sort of stagger them. You can also shoot their feet in a lot of cases, and you can get up close and double jump over them and shoot down at their heads. It's a lot more ammo efficient to do any of these than to shoot their shields

out of those first 200k players there is going to be a lot of early whale sales too. they made bank yesterday. lol

I really had fun in the beta where they gave you things to try out and free currency , but looking at all the microtransactions in this, DAMN

I got hit with an 11 minute unskippable ad for the first descendant....

As a looter shooter main i would hold off on doing anything with any new game of this type cause a large majority fall under 2ish categories MMO style like Destiny/2 and Soulite like Remnants/2 (Borderlands stands alone as a massive scale singleplayer) If its an MMO style its probably gonna drip feed content slowly while selling everything in the currency shop like Wayfinder did If its a Soulite like Remnants then you got a "how much content does this have" problem , looter shooters are the most replayable types of games excluding pure PVP games but in a Soulite system like Remnants its difficult to do something diffrent inside the game , Remnants 1 and 2 did it correctly but still have points in the game were it feels same-y If Elden Ring had guns it would be sort of like Remntants 2 but the point is that you need Elden Rings scale to make it work

"If the devs fix the issues" If one of the main complaints is that there are 9000 MTXs, the devs won't be addressing the issue they put there on purpose.

What you do is get high ground so that you can shoot over the shield.

my only complain about this game is the timer when you want to craft, it took 4h to craft my weapon and probably more in late game

Yeah I played the beta 1 and 2 one has to start back over everything's locked in I can only play on the weekends cuz I work during the week play coming up this weekend I'm going to be hitting that game hard as f*** It's been through two bettas and they're still having issues what did they do for the whole entire year after the second beta

My rule is - If you invest the full price of a normal game in a Free 2 Play game and don't get the same experience (so no more "debuffs" you can buy away) then it's ok. If you need more, it's a rip off and they try to scam you.

As someone who’s played Nexon games as a kid, it being a cash grab was the only way this game could’ve gone lmfao

Unreal just easily lends to a certain type of art. To make it look more unique requires doing a lot more with shaders/vfx/lighting, and that costs time/money so they dont. Same reason why so many Unity projects have that super cell look to them.

All the games, and all the MTX.

Servers have been rough. The few hours I have played was great. Curvy gals, kick-ass dudes, free to play, and fun. What more do you want?

I like how beefy the guns sound as opposed to most games where they sound like pea shooters.

Its WalMart Mass Effect. Its free, so they have to monetize somehow to keep the servers running, and the fact you can get items through gameplay instead of paying out is better than most other games.

He wont like warframe. You require at least 2-3 years of blood sweat and tears to qualify for endgame. You are a god in endgame though.

everything you complain about are the very mechanics in both warframe and Destiny... so they are using proven track record mechanics. What will make or break the game is the progression, if it's a super grind then its over, as people have already invested in super grinds in the afore mentioned games. I personally after 4500 hrs in Destiny and 800 in warframe find this to be refreshing in that there is no DEI/woke content and that it's got a pleasing art direction, in HDR with ray tracing. it's eye candy every step of the way

You can use a full sniper or heavy ammo build in general, there is a character called gley and one of her abillities is that for a certain period of time u dont consume ammo and theres a mod (which got nerfed but still good) named super senses which upgrade the duration time of skills and lowers cd if i remember currect? So u combine it which mods u can achive a full heavy ammo build. Altho it got nerfed and gley got nerfed she was the highest dps in the beta and if u make this build i believe she still is for hard mod

man actually 100% wuthering waves damm, im impressed lol

Warframe was insanely redundant when it first launched, so we’ll see if they can turn it around. The one advantage WF had was space ninja combat.
