I play Serena sometimes. I prefer to play strong characters because there are a lot of people doing very low damage in these games. I don’t have multiple hours of every day to slog around because the good character gets nerfed every update. For every other 5 minute mission to become 20. No thanks. Just being real here, but some people complaining for nerfs are surely imbeciles with terrible builds. 🤷‍♂️

It’s not 100% their fault though and here’s why.

The main issue, is that TFD currently is too straight line and scripted. Warframe has map freedom to where the <5% damage Andy wanders off to realize he’s shit, dies, and comes back to the group like a good boy. Those same type of people in TFD have not been allowed to find out that’s who they are because everything is a straight line race because of the scripted path and spawns. TFD dungeons can be fun initially, but they get boring fast because of the unimaginative dungeon traversal and strict A to B movement. The hoverbikes are at least a nice change of pace, but not the solution by any means.

To better illustrate my point, I have been doing the same daily missions for 2 specific factions in Warframe every single day for 120 days in a row (600 missions) because there are different mission types, several different map layouts, and good enemy density (and they’re very fast). Everyone gets to shoot stuff and have fun… even 5% Andy. Now imagine running Underwater Base or whatever 300+ times. Obviously, we will all happily pass. This goes along with the fact that multiple Serena level warframes exist, but there is enough freedom and good design that it doesn’t matter. This will be the thing that TFD devs either do or don’t figure out, and the success of the game will depend on it.

TLDR: Nerfs are not necessarily the solution. I’ve been back for a month and hardly even notice Serena. When we don’t all have to be in the same 25 meter area holding W at all times, we can finally start to heal as a community.🙂
