Summary

  • Players in The First Descendant want a material tracking feature to easily monitor their Amorphous Material Components.
  • Nexon's hotfix 1.0.6 addressed character issues and gameplay adjustments while fixing bugs in the game.
  • The community hopes for more quality of life changes, like hiding crafted blueprints and adding a Research Tab feature.

The First Descendant players are calling for a helpful quality of life change that would allow them to view the number of material components they currently own. Alongside this change, The First Descendant players are chiming in with what else they would like to see in future updates.

Nexon continues to release updates for The First Descendant in order to promote player engagement over time. The most recent update, hotfix 1.0.6, made various adjustments to Descendant characters like Jayber, Kyle, and Valby. Moreover, the update resolved an issue that prevented Weekly and Seasonal Challenges for the Battle Pass from rewarding players with hard-earned Supply Coins. The community's beloved Fortress Outskirts mission was also fixed, ensuring that the bug inadvertently introduced in The First Descendant update 1.5 will no longer affect players on their farming runs. Players still have a lengthy list of changes and fixes that they would like Nexon to implement into the live game, however.

Reddit user DREAMVILLE would be very pleased if The First Descendant received a quality of life change that allows players to see the amount of Amorphous Material Components they own. These components are vital in The First Descendant's core gameplay loop since they're necessary for the creation of weapons and Descendants in the game. However, players are currently having trouble tracking how many components they actually own, leading to some frustration when attempting to use their components and craft their desired weapons. This quality of life change would help the community easily track their materials and plan out their progression path in The First Descendant, but players don't stop there with their requests for in-game features.

The First Descendant Players Would Like a Material Tracking Feature

Alongside a material tracking feature, players would like Nexon to implement a toggle that allows them to hide blueprints in The First Descendant for items that were already crafted. Some players would also like a "Research Tab" feature that shows how much longer they must wait for the crafting process to finish, instead of having to go back to Albion to check progress. The addition of gold as a reward for dismantling items is another requested change that The First Descendant players would like to see in a future update.

Nexon will continue to release more updates for The First Descendant in the weeks and months to come, and enough feedback from the community might encourage the developers to introduce some of the most requested changes. An additional customization option for The First Descendant's Ultimates is among one of the community's many desired changes for the game.
