Typical NetEase scummy Monetization just within the first week LOL

First page you see, Which show 60 pearl, monkey brain will think oh 60 pearl x7 = 420 pearl

Hey thats a deal, lets buy 420 pearl = 10 USD

Oh wai...2nd pull is now 180? then 400? then 800?

wow i just spend 7440 pearl thats 130 USD = RM600

Already play it on legendary mode ahh just no time to play because also playing sword of justice at least can buy rather than gacha cosmetic items, these two are NetEase.

The three trifecta of N

NetEase
Nexon
NcSoft

Are all shit, playing their game you just waiting to get screw one way or another.

The English translation and voice of NPC mainly all AI.

Their mini game are shit, Madiao card, pot pissing, AI conversation to be friend. At first maybe you feel like oh nice then after a few time you just want it to be done. Empty lifeless conversation.

Story at beginning seems alright then

TLDR: if you play English Voice, their voice suck

If you main CN voice, English subs ( a lot of nuance and wordplay you will be missing) some part you feel like oh end already

If you understand Chinese and can read better la

I can understand just can't read so depends on the subtitles but after a while I feel like I am missing something.

I went into the rabbit hole yea a lot of things missing in the English translation.

The skills leveling is really CB, all RNG and limited to what you can get.

There are few way to make it less RNG but still take forever if you want to min max skills.

You need 10, 20 , 30 ,50 then 100 books just to max one skills. There are a lot of them. One of the new weapon incoming HengDao basically need to be stage 3 then only usable cuz they lock the combo required for it to work.

You can't syok2 change to fist style cuz I like fist today tmr I want play sword. You will be missing a lot of skills level for it.

Pick one main weapon style and stick to it, the other one you just keep them low lvl for syok sendiri play

TLDR

The mini game sucks especially the riddle,ma lanciao card and others

The grindy part is time gated, basically you know the game got like 8 weapons and 3 more incoming

The books to upgrade your skills are all RNG and weekly gated

There is 15?20? Book in the box to Rng? You are limited by your stamina also.

Basically someone who play CN version for 1 year spend money every week grind he can't even max one weapon skills.

He is only 1 level away from max, and you can at most play 2 or 3 build max.

If you are the type that wan try everything then this is not the game la

Gameplay wise, I main highest difficulty basically parry game
Boss no new attack pattern just double triple damage and health.

Main for story just play normal mode can de

Wow I just installed the game and after reading your comment I uninstalled it straight away lol.

Now playing back Nexon's The First Descendant haha...... I've heard Nexon's nama busuk as well but currently the game I'm playing is NSFW Warframe clone. It's skins are little expensive but at least cheaper than this and no gacha.

I played The First Descendant before, and also Where Winds Meet, imo in the long run Where Winds Meet will age better.

Some of the downer for The First Descendant is the gameplay loop to try to get stuff that you want, it gets dull very fast, NSFW stuff can only carry the game to a certain point, the story is kinda bad, well you finish the campaign first see how you feel first, I stop after finishing the campaign and try to unlock other characters then stop right there.

If we talking strictly about story, then WWM is better.

The first Descendent yea the game loop after a while nak tidor. best descendants when I play was ultimate bunny just hop hop and finish dungeon grind fast. Any other descendants at that time really boring and slow.

Not sure about current updates

Now I have lesser time on gaming so it suits me just fine. I just open game grind a few rounds and sleep dy. sweat.gif Now most powerful descendant is Serena and Hailey. Serena just flying and bombing mobs with that bullet splitting rocket launcher. And Hailey with her new module her Yamato gun one shots almost everything.

Plus with what happened to Genshin recently I really lost faith in those China devs. sweat.gif sweat.gif

Genshin released character lv100 with their anniversary BUT to reach that you need to whale. Means f2p players can say bye bye to other end game content in the future because level difference will affect your damage to mobs and bosses a lot.

Besides that they tend to release more and more pvp event where you need to screw up other players. I will not be surprised one day they release a event that require players to kill each other.

And the most recent thing is they added UGC which made quite a huge uproar among players but I'm not sure what is the reason. based on what I guessed maybe they pulled the Warcraft map editor stunt all over again.

Yea Genshin not my taste anymore so I don't hesitate and just say bye bye. Now any game with gacha I wont be playing. They can have microtransactions but I prefer they sell their stuffs directly.
