A recent blog post has caused further despair among The First Descendant's community after originally giving players a glimmer of hope.
A game with a grappling hook is way more likely to be good than a game without a grappling hook.

A new farming strategy has recently risen to prominence in The First Descendant. Using Valby, players have been running the Vulgus Fortress Outpost and, due to an increase in enemies, been getting far more drops.

The blog post then continued by promising players that "we will update other farming locations to match the efficiency, equivalent to The Fortress Outpost." With The First Descendant having notoriously difficult, verging on seemingly unjust drop rates, this led to delight among players, with the expectation that they would now be able to farm materials...
