The First Descendant players blast Hard Mode oversight that ruins endgame Nexon GamesThe First Descendant players can\u2019t believe the game\u2019s Hard Mode lacks matchmaking, a \u201chuge oversight\u201d that may not bode well for the endgame. As things currently stand, The First Descendant boasts two World difficulties, Normal and Hard. Players can only access the latter after completing the main campaign missions on Normal. The added challenge isn\u2019t the sole benefit available to those who jump into the endgame; Hard Mode also includes better rewards. As such, many players can\u2019t wait to see what exactly the higher World difficulty entails, but one unfortunate shortcoming has some second-guessing their long-term commitment to the shooter. The First Descendant\u2019s Hard Mode offering currently lacks matchmaking options, which Reddit users have described as a \u201chuge oversight [that] honestly needs to be put in ASAP.\u201d The omission of matchmaking means players can\u2019t team up with randoms on the Hard World difficulty. Instead, those hoping to play with others must join or create parties. Notably, The First Descendant\u2019s growing community isn\u2019t pleased with this revelation, with several players saying they\u2019re now unlikely to explore the endgame. One such comment in the Reddit thread reads, \u201cGuess I won\u2019t get to see endgame. Well done, Nexon.\u201d Another person said that despite understanding the reason for such a decision, it\u2019s one they can\u2019t abide. \u201cThat will be when I stop playing, unfortunately. I get it to an extent as sometimes harder difficulties require communication\u2026 Many games do it but I\u2019m just not up to the task of searching for clans in games anymore.\u201d Players have expressed similar thoughts on the game\u2019s Steam forums. \u201cWow. Who thought that was a good idea,\u201d wrote one player in response to a post about Hard Mode\u2019s lack of matchmaking. Another disgruntled user joined the chorus to say, \u201cUhh, what? No matchmaking in hardmode? Well, that\u2019s the game dead for me then.\u201d While The First Descendant players hope developers will add Hard Mode matchmaking and other changes soon, there\u2019s no word on whether anything is in the works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
