The First Descendant

Man I forgot I had this game downloaded. Came here to see if it was modded/moddable.

 

Looks like this one is getting a hard pass lol.

 

Shame. It's not a great game, but it is pretty.

"It's not a great game" might be the reason lol

Hah, yeah. But sometimes, the game being pretty can overcome reluctance on games not being all that good.

 

Looks like that is not the case here.

modders wont sped hundreds of hours to grind for characters just to get the model and/or to test their mods, thats also another reason XD

I wish this game had self hosted servers like Genshin or WuWa got. I played this for a bit on release but I just don't have the time to keep up with live service. I'd love this game if I could mod it and cut down on the grind time.

the grind killed this game to be honest plus for most people the game only 'starts' on the second playthrough as you get stuff for all the characters including their alternate version but need to push through the first play through what gets a little hard so if theres no new players playing thyem then it makes some that need help get stuck and stop playing. seen alot give up because either they start from the start but with harder shit or get stuck on later area because they either play themselves or wait half an hour for someone to help... i stopped playing months ago as the grind wasn't very fun for me lol

This was how I felt when I played back after the 2nd big content drop I think (the summer swimsuit skins) but I felt overwhelmed if I didn't constantly play the game everyday to keep up. Doesn't help that there's so much bs in the game that makes it hard to figure out what to grind for. 

 

Hoping the August patch streamlines the experience for those that are less hardcore.

lets hope, they are making the game worse on purpose for some reason, they want players to stay active but in doing so their losing the main player base.

neither game has an actually good priv server mod lol you cant actually do any content

 

um anyway this game could totally be modded but there's just not enough people with the brains or balls to think its smarter to download (or make) nude mods for free instead of grinding/swiping to get half naked skins the normal way. 

 

 There's also the problem that the developers hold a public execution for hackers every week and idiots cheer them on despite it being a game without pvp

 

anyway you can easily disable eac by 

Spoiler

changing the sandbox id in eac settings. just has to come out to the same number of characters so I just swap the two ids of matching lengths and that way you dont even have to remember which one is which. this works on many eac games btw

just have to run it with eac active once to install. BlackCipher.aes is the nexon anticheat so just kill that and you can freely do a lot of stuff, same as vindictus. reshade with addon support works even without killing blackcipher so theoretically one could make a 3dmigoto style mod on reshade api to support d3d12 but no one is interested and capable enough to do that.

 

sig bypass is likely not difficult. didnt work with the common ones but I havent bothered to disassemble the game. 

 

as another person mentioned unknown cheats had skin changing for a while. they don't update the signature to find it but I think they were just changing the skeletal mesh. or maybe they were actually changing the character id. they also have esp for enemy and player bones so I mean honestly on a technical level if you can do that you can probably overwrite the mesh on the cpu side with a buffer loaded using assimp or something and surely lots of people know how to do that but have no interest in doing so

I haven't checked in a while, but Genshin was basically on par with official servers. At least a few patches back. You could do all the quests and dungeons up until Sumeru I think? I dunno, its been a loooong time since I've played. I know the servers started out with just running around and fighting world mobs but they definitely got much better. I think ZZZ has a decent server now too.

Do I understand correctly that there are currently no mods for this game?

unoless modders grind for all the characters and grind for when the new ones come out, it might be considered wasteof time to the modders perspective.

Likely not. Nexon has always been one of the hardest companies to mod games from. Their anti-cheat system is pretty good. The game itself likely doesn't have enough support behind it to garner any interest in modding it either.

After playing this game for 5 days I have almost all the girls unlocked. Not sure why everyone acts like this game is impossible, As far as play goes this game is fun as heck and much better than Warframe IMO. This game has amazing modding potential and people complaining about the price of things?!? seriously the outfits for this game are mostly universal for all the characters and they only cost $15 like most skins on Fortnite or Marvel Rivals. Except they work for multiple characters.

You're responding to 2024 complaints in 2026.

The old grind has been almost entirely removed; now you only need to get the amorphous materials, and that's easier than it used to be. Don't have to do stealth with Sharen anymore (those missions had a 5 minute cooldown at launch, now 15-30 seconds) to get them. Don't have to fight colossi or fight bosses on world maps (which came with its own grind originally) to open them anymore. That's all the launch characters plus Luna and some ultimates (Valby, Sharen, and Freyna I think) made easier to get.

Also, the outfits weren't universal at first, that was $15 per outfit per character. They did refund (in game currency instead of money) people who bought multiples when they changed that at least. The pricing on other things has been questionable too. They did a second, more expensive battle pass when swords came out

Sucks how this still not gotten nude mod support like how FF14 has

we just need one strong soldier to mod the game for us.

Nonsense. Nexon won't allow mods because character skins are the main source of income. If there are mods, skins will no longer be useful. That's why the account will be banned.
