When The First Descendant launched, it didn\u2019t exactly win any awards for player satisfaction. It had a solid player count, but the grind for Void Shard fragments was brutal, taking up more time than many wanted to dedicate. Players were clocking in three-digit hours to get the best characters and the \u201cGenerally Unfavorable\u201d Metacritic score wasn\u2019t doing Nexon\u2019s online shooter any favors. Nexon also has a difficult history when it comes to player relations. Earlier this year, the company was fined $9 million for misleading microtransactions in their game MapleStory. Thankfully, Hotfix 1.0.3 addresses a number of issues the community has raised, including fixes like upping the visibility of Void Shards and increasing their drop rates from certain missions. The patch also includes a slew of other changes that the community has been asking for since day one. Players seem to be genuinely shocked by the positive fixes. In a Reddit thread, one player asked, \u201cWhy can\u2019t the whole gaming industry be more like this?\u201d This sentiment was echoed by another player, who said \u201cTransparency and actually listening to the community\u2019s feedback and acting upon it on a reasonable timeline is something that is absolutely lacking from other companies.\u201d Another player viewed this as a sign of The First Descendant\u2019s future, saying \u201cI feel like Nexon wants to make TFD their own Destiny-like franchise.\u201d That led a different user to add, \u201cSo they\u2019re taking their customers\u2019 complaints very seriously to keep us coming back.\u201d The First Descendant might just be taking steps to try and reach the lofty heights of a franchise like Destiny. Not only does it have the backing of its player base, but it also has a nod of approval from Twitch streamer Asmongold, who says its microtransactions are actually good<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fans amazed The First Descendants patch is \u201cactually listening to community feedback\u201d The First DescendantNexon\u2019s latest patch for The First Descendant delivers several game fixes that stunned and impressed the community, proving that developer Nexon is listening to players.
