I agree this is very helpful and should be a standard in all games, my mind set is if u need an external site to get some info that u can’t get it ingame. The game has a bad design. To be exact not a bad game, just a bad design, specially in looters games

[@PapaAwiz]

It's nowhere near as advanced. Like not even remotely close. But for like half a year now if not maybe longer, Destiny 2 implemented an extremely bare bones version of this very feature. Where there's a specific menu you can go to purely to see all the currencies & resources...what they do & how to earn them. But credit where credit is due, having a click & show feature built right into the game genuinely IS something more games SHOULD be doing. Anything that can be added that removes the feeling of the NEED to use the internet or 3rd party resources, I think is inherently a positive overall. Also again more credit to these guys...I'm like 31 hours in currently & I believe I've legit only pulled up google like ONCE this entire time. Purely because I didn't understand how amorphous materials worked until yesterday. So yeah that speaks volumes about how good the game is about making information available for the most part.

[@RiveyDestroy2]

Nexon is giving us high hoped

[@matebeni]

Hi, you say at 7:48 everything can be farmed but you miss to mention where can we farm caliber, can you add the caliber farm info to?

[@oneandonly1124]

dude you are a damn lifesaver thanks

[@NothingButSkillz]

🙌🏽

[@elementonyoutube6556]

Access info adds a layer of information that should belong in all of today's online games. Its noticeably a lot of work to create such a system and maintain it up-to-date. In a game like 1st Descendant, if Nexon were to add drop table info and patch history, the "wiki" would feel complete. And 1sr Descend- could still have a page that elaborates on stuff like character data, optimization mods, enemy damage etc. But what you need on a reglar basis for reference; yeah, its all there.

[@the1stjester]

Explain the tracking feature when u get a chance.

[@eduard_8808]

My first 100 hours of warframe were spent on wiki and on youtube. Trying to find where to grind x, where to find y. So stressful for new players. Guess what, this TFD game is so good, just for this alone.

[@NGBit]

I wonder if the drop rate changes if you track an item, just to keep you playing. If it does, it's actually a pretty genius plan. Instead of people quitting the game because they're not getting what they want, you can set your own objectives to get to your goals and it keeps you playing on your own terms. Clever.

[@aldeonuwu2634]

Its not the only game doing this, man this game is a soup of stollen ideas from other game, stop idolizing this game, it's worth nothing, it copied from all possible looter shooter titles by implementing the worst mechanics of gatcha and the stat reroll, the only positive thing is its modding system for descendants and weapons...oh no wait they copied it from warframe 😂😂, wake up is a corean game

[@jamestaylor954]

No lie that’s dope af Warframe needed something like this because that game can be confusing af if you don’t know what you doing. I’m liking this game more and more nice vid!
