Overview of Recent Changes in The First Descendant
- The recent Patch 1.2.8 has sparked discontent among players due to alterations in free rewards.

Nexon’s latest update, patch 1.2.8 for The First Descendant, has elicited significant frustration from the game’s community owing to modifications in the free rewards structure. While the game’s roadmap promises an exciting future, including new agent skins slated for release on February 17 and the eagerly awaited season 2 episode 2 in March, these recent changes have left many players feeling dissatisfied.
Launched in July 2024, The First Descendant is a free-to-play MMORPG looter shooter that allows players to embody unique Descendants, gifted with mysterious abilities, as they strive to defend humanity from the hostile Vulgus alien race. The game has quickly gained acclaim, being considered one of the standout co-op titles of 2024, alongside other hits like Helldivers 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Notably, it achieved an impressive milestone with over 10 million players registered within its first week of availability.
A recent post by user xXxSushiKittyxXx on Reddit revealed the new rewards structure for completing the Kate’s Experiment Assistant Daily Operation 30 times. This update, which follows the earlier patch (1.2.7) that offered the Flutter spawn as a reward, has now shifted to providing a Social Motion ‘Comic Dance’ and 10 Paints. Despite the introduction of additional rewards, many players expressed dissatisfaction with the changes, particularly since they had expected to earn the spawn until February 26.

In August 2024, players were celebrated with more free bonuses during Update 1.5, which included temporary boosts and XP opportunities. However, this time, the community has communicated a desire to revert to the previously promised Flutter spawn instead of the new rewards. Feedback from players has indicated that many relied on this specific reward to motivate their daily logins and completion of objectives.
The launch of Season 2 in December 2024 introduced numerous features, including exciting new Descendants, enhanced customization options, and a loot drop pity system aimed at ensuring fair farming for all players. As anticipation builds for the release of season 2 episode 2 on March 13, players have much to look forward to, including new main story content, an updated Battle Pass, Photo Mode, additional skins, and more expansive gameplay.
