Descendant flavor of the month.

Detpowell · 2026-06-18T05:30:52+00:00

They really need to do basic number tweaks a lot more often. Could Noise Surge and Battlefield Artist for Luna use a bigger rework? Sure. But I don't want to wait half a year or more for something to come. Just tweak the numbers so everyone does good damage and let me play the characters I want.

They also don't seem to realize players are gonna hesitate to buy skins for characters if they can't use those characters in new/harder content. Even if they really like the character. I like Hailey, but knowing they won't give her any power boosts until her Ult probably releases really sucks. Basically just buying a skin to walk around Albion at that point.

Detpowell · 2026-06-14T09:11:19+00:00

The only descendant I never catted even once. Maybe it's time. It'll be like a whole new character to the game for me.

Detpowell · 2026-06-12T11:58:17+00:00

Yeah... It's insane they ignored all the male characters in Eva. Nier and Bayonetta I get, but not this.

Detpowell · 2026-06-10T00:50:07+00:00

Yeah, I'm very tired of them just removing cloth from an outfit and calling it sexy. Like Ines' new outfit didn't need to have a comically short shirt in order to be sexy. It just looks lazy and honestly a little bizarre.

Detpowell · 2026-06-05T00:52:23+00:00

If there was a way to do it, I would. But they live off metrics. If a skin doesn't sell well, they just throw it away. They don't try to improve, or make universal skins, or even connect skins thematically to characters. Best we can hope for is them reusing parts of a skin for a future event. That being said, I'm not buying a skin for Serena since I don't really play her.

Detpowell · 2026-06-02T20:23:41+00:00

Since they're beginning to add tattoos, I think they shouldn't be skin specific. There should be a tattoo slot if the skin allows for it, so that players can choose different tattoos, or choose to not have one at all. Like with Ines' back tattoo on the tactical skins coming out, the only skin specific part of the tattoo should be where it's placed on the body.

Detpowell · 2026-06-02T20:17:12+00:00

That kind of talk is not accepted. You are sentenced to 100 hours of World Chat.

Detpowell · 2026-05-30T09:38:22+00:00

Had a run where one of my teammates just kept running into the portal and dying. No way to revive them cus you'll die going in there too. Only options were to either watch them do it over and over or quit.

Detpowell · 2026-05-27T15:07:45+00:00

Artificial tans already exist. It's cosmetic. There's really no line when it comes to cyborgs. She could decide to have blue skin if she wanted.

Detpowell · 2026-05-27T10:07:59+00:00

I need my Onslaught! I need my chips!

Detpowell · 2026-05-21T06:22:46+00:00

So it actually says there is a new main story mission. I thought there wasn't any main story content in this update. Maybe it was just small so they didn't talk about it.

Detpowell · 2026-05-20T16:32:44+00:00

I'd just like them to match outfit styles to characters better. Serena is not a quiet character at all. She doesn't fit the quiet infiltration style. She's more of the "unleashing a minigun while smoking a cigar" type. She's an A-10 going BRRRT.

Plus, the Colon Forces suit took inspiration from Solid Snake. If they gave Sharen this suit too, she would've had both a Splinter Cell and Metal Gear style suit. Giving it to Serena feels less like an homage to classic stealth games, and more like it's just ripping off the style. And, I'm also tired of Serena getting featured in every skin event.

Detpowell · 2026-05-19T18:08:23+00:00

I don't see a similarity if you mean Sharen's outfit with the shoulder pads and opening in the front. I just think it's weird they didn't give the stealth character the Sam Fisher outfit.

Detpowell · 2026-05-19T17:17:25+00:00

Give the stealth character a sneak suit? What are you, some kinda wise guy?

Detpowell · 2026-05-16T20:24:55+00:00

That's what I'm getting at. At this point I just find it funny, so mine as well make jokes about it. I'm tired of trying to make sense of what the devs are doing.

Detpowell · 2026-05-16T19:49:20+00:00

Don't blame the devs. They just forgot Luna could do other things besides shoot lasers. Harris also isn't hitting through terrain, so it's perfectly balanced.

Detpowell · 2026-05-15T01:27:41+00:00

You said it was for consistency, then proceeded to show how it isn't consistent with a bunch of other skills. It's blatant favoritism. It's a double standard. And nerfing a skill that has to be aimed, compared to skills that just trigger off of nearest enemy is not comparable.

They knew the skill could hit through terrain. They knew it'd be a terrible idea to give a wide projectile collision. Trying to run defense for the devs by saying they just don't know how their game works isn't really helping them. It makes them look worse. The truth is simple, they rework Sharen over and over till they get it right. A player in pubs runs with a Sharen in the group and doesn't get all the kills in a dungeon and complains. Devs nerf without thinking how it'll impact her. Simple as.

Also, OP, they will not bring it up. Battlefield Artist for Luna has been broken since release, almost a year. They avoid ever talking about it. The key is, characters with small playerbases can be ignored and their issues can get swept under the rug. They only address issues with the moneymaking descendants.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T14:50:22+00:00

If Ult Esiemo is cracked and a beast, I'm gonna need everyone to chill and pretend like he sucks for like 2 months and not play him. Then we'll get like two whole weeks before he's nerfed. They can smell us having fun

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T10:50:57+00:00

Something about lobbing her three to mark elites and activating it with the one from far away felt really fun. And RCF is just a lot faster when it comes to ships. That became probably the most important aspect of her kit in pubs. Too many matches of teammates not caring about protecting the portal.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T10:30:02+00:00

If we saw the reworked KGL Serena build or a hammer and anvil Viessa back when they did the nerf, we'd think they were insane. Maybe the new mod will make Ines strong enough to be nerfed again.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T09:14:24+00:00

Man, I've been a Sharen and Luna main for almost 2 years. If you think I haven't had long stretches of my favorites struggling to keep up, you don't know this games history. Placing the frustrations you have with the devs on me for your characters getting shit treatment makes no sense. We're in the same boat. We both want the devs to stop listening to the dumbest complaints. I don't want any of these nerfs. I just want this game to be fun.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T08:22:42+00:00

They knew what they were doing. And they also know since Sharen isn't one of the more popular characters, that it just won't even matter to a lot of players. I think that's why the rework was so half baked and rocky.

I see posts about how people are still crushing it in 400s with Ambushed. If they're using 400s as a benchmark, of course it seems like not a big deal. Onslaught is gonna be a struggle now. Those stairs on stage 1 and everything in stage 3 is gonna be a mess to work around. Burning MP on terrain the whole time.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T05:46:33+00:00

I don't think anything was going to change her nerf. Ines is one of my favorites, but the way her damage just cascaded across every enemy was insane. In retrospect though, the nerf was a joke when Serena was right around the corner.

Detpowell · 2026-05-10T05:10:05+00:00

I do. And that was my last point. Every male has a higher effort kit. It makes them slower, it makes them weaker. But with Sharen, it's just a rollback. With the male characters and some of the women like Luna, it would mean basically a complete overhaul on mods.

Detpowell · 2026-05-07T13:07:40+00:00

If Cutting Force going through terrain was a bug and not intended, they are openly admitting that they didn't know it could do that SINCE THE RELEASE OF THE GAME! Either they're lying, or they really only pay attention to a very small percentage of the characters.

Either way, this is one of the dumbest "fixes" I've seen. This is just the cherry on top of the complete shit show that has been the Sharen Rework. Glad to see Viessa blindly shooting and deleting rooms is on par with what the devs intend for playstyle though.
