Destiny 2, being a globally renowned looter shooter game, is also personally admired and respected by the team, and it has served as an inspiration during the development process. We have taken the concerns raised seriously and decided to make adjustments to ensure that the imagery that may appear similar clearly reflects the unique identity of our game. We will continue to improve the game for fans of the looter shooter genre.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, The First Descendant is a mash-up of mechanics from various looter shooters already in the market. There\u2019s more than a whiff of Destiny about The First Descendant\u2019s design, systems, and mechanics, but then there\u2019s also a lot of Warframe about it, too.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Nexon released <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/the-first-descendant-patch-102-makes-some-big-changes-heres-what-it-does\">a significant update for The First Descendant<\/a> that makes some big changes to the game, and leaves some aspects of it that had become a topic of discussion within the community well alone.<\/p>\n<p>IGN\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/the-first-descendant-review\">The First Descendant review<\/a> returned a 5\/10. We said: \u201cThe First Descendant has all the building blocks of a fantastic looter shooter, but they\u2019re buried under a pile of monotonous quests, a terrible story, and an infuriating free-to-play model that has influenced its game design in the worst possible way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Wesley is the UK News Editor for IGN.
