The First Descendant to reduce the need for Void Shards following community feedback
The Void Shard loop in The First Descendant is one of the worst grinds in the game. Nexon’s previous changes weren’t enough to satisfy players, so more improvements are in the works.
In the patch notes for Update 1.0.5, The First Descendant director Minseok Joo acknowledges that players don’t like the existing Void Shard loop. With the Update 1.0.5, Special Operations now drop seven times more Void Shards than before, and the team is considering removing Void Shards from the Void Fusion Reactor startup. “This would make the Fragments necessary only when the Reconstructing Device is used at the Fusion Reactor,” the director wrote.
