“It’s pretty clear that if these weren’t flat-out taken from Destiny they were copied almost exactly with those small additions or subtractions added,” wrote Tassi in the first article, sharing several comparison images like the one below. Tassi also points out comparisons between guns, enemies, some promotional art, and a skull icon.

Whether you think there’s any veracity to these comparisons or not - although let’s be honest, some of them are incredibly suspect - Nexon themselves decided to reach out to Tassiwith a statement. In short it basically says: uh, sorry about that, we’ll get right on it.
I don’t really care much about The First Descendant, although if Nexon go back and draw moustaches and glasses on all the offending icons, I will champion it until the day it dies. Despite my personal lack of enthusiasm for getting involved with another forever-shooter right now, I did chat to Nexon about how they’ve designed their endgame tonot rely on “meaningless DPS” or “piling on specs”, which is admirable.
