The First Descendant Beta ImpressionsJason Love

The First Descendant is a third-person shooter with some RPG mechanics. You'll gain experience as you defeat enemies and level up, which increases stats like your base hit points, shields, and defense, and the effectiveness of your abilities. These boosts are fixed and you cannot allocate points like in a traditional RPG. You'll initially only have access to one special ability and unlock the other three by the time you hit level 10. There is loot to acquire as you play - specifically "armor" (there are 4 gear slots that either provide more shields, more defense, or more HP), guns, and Runes, which are the main way you customize your character/gear - and additional characters are unlocked by acquiring kits and materials, then crafting the different pieces and assembling them. If you've played even a smidgen of Warframe, much of this will feel familiar.
