Grinding for New Descendants

In Seasons 1 and 2, developers delved into the method of cultivating new offshoots within the game. Players should anticipate investing approximately 10 to 15 hours per season to gather new offshoots. The game prioritizes accumulation over intricate development, thus offering a variety of things to farm, such as 19 offshoots, 22 ultimate weapons, and 560 modules. If players manage to find and cultivate the desired module, they can effortlessly secure it within a day.

Balancing and Adjustments

The game developers understand and are working diligently to correct the issue of overbalancing in the game. They plan on making adjustments to the modules and skills regularly, with each seasonal update serving as an opportunity for re-evaluation and improvement. For characters requiring additional support to maintain balance, fresh new modules will be introduced to compensate for any identified weaknesses. The ultimate objective is to prevent overbalancing from becoming a problem and to offer players diverse strategies by introducing these new modules.

Potential Nerfs and Transparency

The programming team recognizes that users can be sensitive to changes in game balancing, so they tread carefully when making adjustments. They are aware that over-powered characters may attract complaints if they’re toned down (nerfed). However, they feel that if required, decisive changes should be implemented, backed by clear communication and logical reasoning. Their aim is to strike a balance between enhancing character abilities and ensuring game content remains challenging.

No Paid Expansions

In simpler terms, the creators have confirmed that they don’t intend to release extensive paid add-ons or expansions for this game. Instead, it will continue to be free for everyone to play. Their goal is to ensure there’s enough engaging content for players to enjoy the farming aspect. They encourage players to look forward to seasonal updates and the tactical choices that come with new features.
