Despite a rocky start, The First Descendant has still managed to attract 10 million players within just seven days.
The first-person shooter game, The First Descendant, has experienced a tumultuous start since its launch last month. With a strong debut, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands initially rivalled Elden Ring’s performance on the Steam charts, a remarkable achievement considering the concurrent release of Shadow of the Tartarus. Gamers’ discontent escalated after the release, with widespread criticism aimed at the game’s monetization strategies and allegations surfacing that its graphics were heavily borrowed from Destiny 2. Despite its “Combined” ranking on Steam, the sport’s numerous flaws haven’t deterred enthusiasts from participating in it. Within just seven days, the sport has successfully attracted a staggering 10 million gamers in line with its official Twitter account.
10 Million Descendants!
The astonishing growth of our game community has exceeded all expectations! In just seven days, we’ve witnessed an incredible surge to a staggering 10 million players joining the Descendants family.
Thank you to everyone for their exceptional assistance and support. This matters deeply to each of us.
We strive to provide you with exceptional experiences. Let’s embark on this shared adventure together with enthusiasm and anticipation.— The First Descendant (@FirstDescendant)
“Thank you all for your great help and loving support,” For us, even the smallest details matter. We strive to deliver exceptional experiences that exceed your expectations. Here’s a revised version: “I’m excited to embark on this journey with you!” While this doesn’t really matter at all, I must admit that it mildly amuses me.
The sport is met with dismay from fans and criticism from pundits alike, falling short of expectations on multiple fronts. Although Nexon is a financially robust company due to its size, maintaining a live-service game remains a challenging task. While estimates suggest around 10 million gamers may engage with the platform, it remains to be seen which portion will persist once significant changes are implemented. The sport’s initial patch released earlier this week, leaving little reason for concern; however, if you’re a fan of the looter-shooter genre, there may still be some apprehension regarding the update’s potential impact.
