Diablo 4: “The community is the most important asset” – Blizzard speaks with us about development and future

von Benedict Grothaus

A large part of the community is having fun with the way the season has been announced. The turning gears strongly resemble Grinding Gear Games, the creators of the biggest competitor: Path of Exile.

Whether this was intentional or not can only be speculated. But the connection between the teaser and Path of Exile is already causing a lot of memes and somewhat mocking comments. Path of Exile is considered the top game when it comes to finding the best alternatives to Diablo.

The Finals makes it a month after release, what CoD fans have been waiting for years – Weakens a controversial feature

Dariusz Müller 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

In modern shooters, there will always be certain aspects that players do not like. The Finals has now weakened such a controversial feature after criticism from some players.

Which feature is it? The aim assist. Embark Studios released patch 1.4.1 on January 11, making a deterioration in aim assist.

For example, the magnetic effect that pulls a player’s crosshair toward the opponent has been reduced from 50% to 35%.

What is aim assist? Aim assist is an aiming aid that can only be used by controller players and is supposed to help the player aim with the sticks of the controller. The player’s crosshair is automatically pulled in the direction of an opponent.

Aim assist is intended to compensate for aiming with a mouse, where players can be more precise by using their entire arm than controller players can be with their thumbs.

Also, part of the CoD community has been wishing for years for a deterioration of aim assist – especially among “mouse and keyboard” players.

Players believe that aim assist is too strong. Especially in the past weeks and months, the topic has come up repeatedly (via Reddit). Recently, a clip even circulated in which the aim assist targeted a player who was in a house – behind a wall.

What other changes did The Finals make to aim assist? In addition to the reduction of the magnetic effect, Embark Studios made further changes to the aim assist in The Finals.

Here you can see an overview:

The zoom snapping¹ time is reduced from 0.3 seconds to 0.25 seconds.
Players using programs on PC to remap buttons should not have access to aim assist.
Aim assist will now ignore invisible players, fixing a bug in the existing system.
The zoom snapping rotation speed now has a cap to prevent unintentional quick 90-degree turns.
The zoom snapping is removed from the SR-84 sniper rifle, the revolver, the LH1, and all shotguns, as it buffs these weapons more than others.

von Nicole Wakulczyk

The Finals receives praise for the change – except from controller players

How do players react to the change? On social media, there are some players, especially controller users, who do not like the change. For instance, the user Fadeaway2000 writes on X.com: “Uninstalled. There are other games. I need aim assist to compete against PC players.”

On the other hand, there are users like Vadasz, who writes on X.com: “Any first-person shooter that has issues with aim assist should take this direction! You made me a fan of this game for life!”

But the aim assist nerf is also being noticed in other gaming communities.

In the CoD Warzone Subreddit, it’s written: “If I were a ‘mouse and keyboard’ player, I would switch to The Finals. Get the CoD developers’ attention through player numbers.”

Respawn and Apex Legends were also mentioned on Reddit when the aim assist nerf of The Finals came up: “Embark has just done what Respawn has failed to do for more than 4 years, and that in less than a year.”

Even in the esports of games like CoD, Apex Legends, and Halo, many play with a controller because the aim assist is so strong that a good controller player can outperform a good “mouse and keyboard” player.

However, playing with a controller can also quickly affect health, according to a former CoD pro, as games like CoD and Apex Legends require many inputs due to their demanding movement: Ex-pro explains why streamers are quitting CoD Warzone – The risk of injury is too great

7 vs. Wild: One participant received their luggage too late and experienced a nasty surprise

Cedric Holmeier 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

After 7 vs. Wild, the participants had some free time before returning to Germany. One participant decided to bring something back to Germany that would later cause an unpleasant surprise.

Which participant is it? In a clip from a stream on TikTok, Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller (26) tells a story about substitute Jan Schlappen (25). After the time at 7 vs. Wild, the freerunner decided to use the remaining free time to go fishing in Canada.

The fishing apparently went very well, and the participant was able to catch a big fish. However, instead of eating the fish on site, Jan Schlappen apparently wanted to transport the fish back to Germany on the plane. This was probably a mistake, as the extreme athlete would soon find out.

One of the participants of Season 3 is Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.

The transport to Germany becomes a problem

What happened at the airport? Upon arriving at the airport, Jan Schlappen apparently faced a problem. He wanted to book an extra luggage piece for the fish to transport it chilled back to Germany.

This was, however, probably no longer possible so close to departure. Thus, the participant had to find another solution to transport the fish back to Germany.

How did the fish get to Germany? To be able to take the fish along, Jan Schlappen is said to have stored the fish in the “Drybag” of participant Wieland “Rumathra” Welte.

The “Drybag” is a waterproof bag used in outdoor activities to keep items dry. In Rumathra’s “Drybag”, the fish allegedly made its journey to Germany.

Did everything work out? The flight apparently went without problems; however, Rumathra’s luggage along with the “Drybag” was lost.

On-site, the streamer could not recover the luggage and apparently filed an online request for the luggage to be delivered. When the luggage finally arrived, however, the streamer experienced an unpleasant surprise.

You can watch the whole story in the video here:

https://www.tiktok.com/@storytimeandclips/video/7322604492212555041?_r=1&_t=8iwH7g8aKh7

What was the unpleasant surprise? Upon the arrival of the luggage, the streamer reportedly smelled his “Drybag”. Rumathra said in the stream:

[…] and then my Drybag arrives, and it stinks so terribly, right, because it came like 2, 3 days later

Rumathra in the stream excerpt

Apparently, the fish spoiled during the time the luggage was lost. What eventually happened to the fish is not revealed in the video.

At 7 vs. Wild, the participants actually should not have had to hunger as much as they did. While the participants were very cautious with the plants, Knossi and Sascha Huber had plenty of fish. Additionally, the locals of the shooting location recently revealed what diverse plants were available on the island. We reported here about everything the participants could have eaten.

A new and brilliant idea could soon completely change how we build our gaming PCs

Benedikt Schlotmann 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

MSI presented a new motherboard at CES 2024. Many connections are located on the back of the board. If this becomes established, it could change how gaming PCs are built in the future.

Anyone who has ever assembled a computer has likely been frustrated with the troublesome cable management. However, with “Project Zero,” the way we build our gaming PCs could change in the future. It aims to make cables disappear from at least the front of the computer. But not every case is suitable for this.

New motherboards have connections on the back

What kind of motherboard is this? MSI introduced two new motherboards at CES 2024: the Z790 Project Zero (Intel) and the B650M Project Zero (AMD). Both belong to a new series of models.

The special feature of both models is that all cable connections have disappeared from the front. This includes connections for power supply to the motherboard or for the CPU, as well as connections for SATA cables. Only the slots for expansion cards, the graphics card, and the CPU remain on the front.

Are there any disadvantages? Yes, the new models require significantly more space on the back. You will also need a larger case for this. The colleagues at PCGamesN report that the new models go up to 50% deeper than conventional boards.

If you already own a large case, this shouldn’t be a problem. However, it looks different if you prefer a small, compact system. Whether more compact models will be introduced in the future is still unknown.

Price and Release: The prices and exact availability will be announced later, but they will come to market early in the year. Let’s hope that the models won’t be as expensive as MSI’s Godlike models.

Crimson Desert finally shows specs for the PS5 and confirms what many have feared

von Benedikt Schlotmann

Hiding or minimizing cables is not entirely new

The idea of hiding or minimizing cables is not entirely new. Even though MSI’s idea to do this with a motherboard is initially unique.

Many gamers now try to hide annoying cables when building their PCs by stuffing them into cable channels or securing them elsewhere in the case. This not only improves the appearance inside but also often improves airflow in the case.

Other manufacturers also offer at least comparable ideas: The manufacturer ASUS has introduced graphics cards and a motherboard that can be connected directly without requiring an additional power cable for the GPU.

The company Cablemod offers special kits for gamers to minimize the cables inside a system.

New sandbox MMO launching in spring on Steam, combining survival and MMORPG – fans are skeptical whether it can work

Benedict Grothaus 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

By spring 2024, Pax Dei is set to launch in Early Access, a new sandbox MMO with ambitious goals. The game offers an enormous amount of freedom and hardly any fixed paths that you need to follow. However, this could now become its biggest weakness, fear interested parties.

What kind of game is this?

Pax Dei is a mix of survival game and MMORPG in a medieval fantasy world. While there are classes, the game promises absolute freedom otherwise.
The core features of Pax Dei include an extensive crafting system, world exploration, and a city-building system that allows you to found and expand entire settlements.
The unique selling point of the game is its unique zoom feature: To obtain information about objects or the environment, you need to observe them closely.

More about it in our presentation:

What is Pax Dei, the new sandbox MMO with the unique zoom feature?

von Benedict Grothaus

When will Pax Dei be released? Already at the end of 2023, the first alpha of Pax Dei started. The Early Access is planned for spring 2024. A specific date and price are still pending. You can sign up for it via the official website.

The sandbox MMO will be released for PC on Steam. A console version is currently not planned. More information will be shared in the coming days and weeks.

The developers say: The game needs a community to be further developed. That’s why it will only be released in Early Access. However, players are skeptical about whether it can all work out.

Valheim is one of the major inspirations for Pax Dei. We have already spoken with the developers about their game:

Autoplay

“When I see sandbox, I exit”

In a thread on Reddit, players and interested parties discuss the release announcement. There, they are unsure about what to think of Pax Dei. The biggest concern: the game will not offer enough.

It is said, for example: The game sounds like players need to find something to do on their own. Such a thing wouldn’t work. What has been seen so far is also not finished enough. Combat is placeholder, quests and NPCs have not been seen yet.

The idea is good, and a fantasy MMO with a similar economy to EVE Online is indeed interesting. However, Pax Dei may suffer from launching too early in Early Access.

von Alexander Leitsch

A similar discussion has already taken place in the MeinMMO editorial team, particularly between MMORPG specialist Alexander Leitsch and survival expert Benedict Grothaus. The discussion is likely being viewed too much from the MMORPG perspective. Especially since the MMORPG subreddit is overly critical of MMORPGs.

For players used to rich quest areas like those in World of Warcraft or Guild Wars 2, Pax Dei seems sparse. But for fans of Conan Exiles, ARK, and similar games, a large area to explore with great features and RPG elements is an interesting approach.

Some users also see it similarly: Pax Dei should be viewed more as an MMORPG than a survival game. In fact, this mix is something that both genres have been steering towards for a while now. Even some developers share this view. Recently, this was seen with Conan Exiles. The barbarian MMO is increasingly evolving into a survival MMORPG.

One Piece: From tomorrow you can watch the latest episodes on Netflix – Yes, we mean the Egghead arc

Jasmin Beverungen 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

If you want to watch the latest episodes of One Piece, you previously had to subscribe to Crunchyroll. There, you can find the very latest episodes from Japan in simulcast – a new episode is available every Sunday at 9:00 AM. But now fans have the opportunity to watch the anime on another streaming service.

Where can I watch One Piece soon? Starting tomorrow, it will be possible to watch the latest episodes of One Piece on Netflix. We are not talking about the live-action series or the remake – the new episodes come from the original series, which has been running as an anime since 1999.

The English-speaking Netflix account had confirmed just a few days ago that One Piece would be added to the program. However, we now have confirmation that the anime will also be available in Germany:

Link to the Twitter content

It is not known how many episodes will be available on Netflix. Netflix Anime only refers to the Egghead Arc, which has only just started in the anime. If it works similarly to Crunchyroll, there might be a new episode from Japan released weekly.

We do not currently know if further episodes from older arcs will also be added to the program. Anime expert NinotakuTV assumes that only the current arc will be available on Netflix for the time being.

As the German dubbing is still in the middle of the Wano Country arc, we assume that the episodes will be offered in the Japanese language with German subtitles. There is currently no official confirmation.

The Egghead Arc has a new opening, which you can watch here:

Netflix or Crunchyroll – Which streaming service is worth it for One Piece

Who is Netflix One Piece worth it for? Worldwide, more people have a subscription to Netflix than to Crunchyroll. In 2022, Crunchyroll had almost 10 million subscribers (via AnimationBusiness). During the same period, Netflix had more than 230 million subscribers (via Statista).

Therefore, there is a high chance that you also have a subscription to Netflix rather than to Crunchyroll. If you are only using Crunchyroll for One Piece and already have an account with Netflix, you can safely cancel Crunchyroll and save costs.

However, there is a minor downside: If the weekly release schedule remains, the new episodes will always be available on Netflix a week later than on Crunchyroll. For example, currently, we can watch the latest episode of the Egghead Arc on Crunchyroll, but not on Netflix.

Also, you should base your decision on which subscription model interests you at each provider. With Crunchyroll, you pay between 6.99 € and 9.99 € per month. With Netflix, the prices start at 4.99 € per month, but the upper limit is 17.99 € per month.

So think carefully about which series and movies interest you and which subscription you would like to use with each provider. We can at least recommend you a great anime on Crunchyroll that also releases weekly: New anime impresses with a young pharmacist, and I look forward to each new episode

Steam, Instagram and other services down? Major disruption brings the internet to a halt

Benedikt Schlotmann 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

Currently, several services like Steam, Discord, LoL, and also Microsoft Teams are experiencing internet issues. What is behind these problems and what can be done about it?

Update January 12, 12:19 PM: According to AllStörungen, Discord and League of Legends are currently the most affected. Other services like Microsoft Teams or internet providers are calming down regarding the reports. We will keep you updated.

What’s going on with the internet right now? Currently, reports are increasing that there seem to be problems with the internet. It is said to affect not just one provider, as dozens of services are affected, including

Steam
Instagram
Discord
Microsoft Teams
League of Legends
DHL

Google

And the list is significantly longer at this time (as of January 12, 2024, 10:00 AM). On Allestörungen.de, thousands of users are already reporting that they cannot connect to several services or are experiencing outages.

Where is the problem? Some suspect that there might be a larger disruption at DE-CIX, which stands for the German Commercial Internet Exchange. It is the largest internet node in the world and connects users, websites, and suppliers to the internet. In one case, for example, a disabled water cooling caused thousands of people to be unable to pay their bills.

So far, we don’t have any exact information. However, we will keep you updated on MeinMMO if more information becomes available.

So far, there is no official report or statement

Are there already solutions for the problem? In some cases, restarting the router or the program can help. Not everyone is equally affected by the issues. While some of us can log into Discord and Steam without problems, others cannot establish a connection.

Top 25 Best Coop Games 2024 for PC, PS5, Xbox and Switch – WE have chosen

Irina Moritz 12. January 2024 Reading time 14 minutes

The best co-op games for PC, PlayStation (PS4 / PS5), Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Switch in 2024: We chose them together with you and present them in this ranking. After a survey, we show on MeinMMO the list of the 25 most popular co-op games. The special thing about it: It’s based on an equally weighted evaluation from editorial staff and the community.

This is how the ranking was established: In two surveys, we let the readers on MeinMMO as well as the editorial staff vote on the best co-op games.

It is, in the truest sense of the word, a “WE”, because the resulting placements for the co-op games have yielded a fixed score – once from the editorial team and once from the community. They were added together, and thus the two groups had a combined influence of 50% on the result.

The participants could choose up to 10 of their favorites from a total of 45 titles, giving a cumulative ranking. The games received different amounts of points depending on their position:

1st place receives 25 points
2nd place receives 24 points
3rd place receives 23 points
etc.

The point amounts resulting from the user and editorial surveys were added together. And thus, the final ranking of the best co-op games was created. More than a thousand people from the MeinMMO community participated, along with the entire editorial team. The texts were then written by our respective experts, enriched with personal anecdotes!

If, on the other hand, you want classic MMOs, you should check out our best list for MMORPGs and MMOs.

Update, January 2024: We have supplemented the list with some current co-op tips from the editorial team, including titles like Baldur’s Gate 3 or Diablo 4. You can find the new recommendations for 2024 here.

But now, let’s get to the ranking and the winners of our extensive co-op recommendation list:

25th place: Conan Exiles

Start video

Conan Exiles in the introductory video

Autoplay

What is the game about? In Conan Exiles, you take on the role of a criminal who has been exiled. But that’s not enough, you’re bound to a cross and left in the desert to slowly die in the sun. Your salvation: the famous barbarian Conan himself.

So begins Conan Exiles. You start in the merciless land of the exiled, where everything and everyone wants to kill you – even the land itself. Giant spiders, sandstorms, and hostile tribes want to skin you and prevent you from using your just-reclaimed life properly.

In the meantime, Conan Exiles now offers an alternative start. With the Isle of Siptah expansion, you can start on an island where you suffer shipwreck during a prisoner transport. On Siptah, there are even more secrets to discover, new enemies, and recipes to build your bases and gear.

This is how you play: Conan Exiles is a classic sandbox survival game. In your attempt to survive, you scour the land of the exiled for resources for your base and equipment, or for food and water. Your journey takes you through various biomes, starting from the desert to a humid jungle to the icy north with a dangerous volcano.

You start naked and must collect materials for your first tool, clothing, and weapons. You gradually advance from making stone weapons to iron ones and finally to rare materials like starmetal.

To secure your survival, you need a base. You build it from various materials and set up a bed and workshop there to manufacture better equipment. But be careful: NPCs regularly attack during a “purification” and try to drive you away and destroy your home.

Even though Conan Exiles does not forgive mistakes and is very rough, the entry point is accessible. The journey with its progressively difficult tasks is a kind of guide through the game. Thus, you can follow the quite exciting story and always have a goal if you ever get stuck.

As it is all about survival, you also need to learn to fight. The various weapons offer different combat styles. In your exploration, you will even encounter dungeons with real puzzles and bosses that reward you with unique items and recipes.

Furthermore, since the “Age of Sorcery” update, there is a real magic system where you need to weave your spells. Through sacrifices and more, you learn spells that also come with their costs: You pay for it with your health.

An important feature is slaves and pets. Slaves assist you in combat or work for you in your base’s workshops. The wild animals of the land can be tamed and even serve as mounts if you manage to subjugate them.

How does co-op gameplay work? In Conan Exiles, you play on servers. These are officially provided by Funcom, but you can also play on private servers or even rent servers yourself. The size of the servers depends on the settings. Official servers typically support 40 players.

The servers have different settings, which determine how you interact with your fellow players:

PvE: Players can only be killed by NPCs, you cannot destroy buildings.
PvE Conflict: PvP is only possible during certain times. Buildings are still protected.
PvP: Players can kill you at any time and destroy your buildings. Depending on the settings, you may lose your equipment (“Full Loot”).

Conan Exiles also supports clans. You can play with friends or acquaintances and build a large base together if you want. Clans comprise up to 10 players on official servers, and more on private servers depending on settings.

You can also host Conan Exiles on a local server. Then you’re alone and another player can join you locally. Ideal if you want to execute admin commands or just play with a friend.

Conclusion on Conan Exiles

Barbar Benedict Grothaus: As an old survival enthusiast and fan of rough, adult settings, Conan Exiles impressed me since Early Access. Upon release, the game was great and has steadily improved with cosmetic DLCs and expansions like The Sunken City or Isle of Siptah.

Even though Conan Exiles does not have as many players as ARK or Rust, it is the best among the major survival titles for me. Why? The setting is different. No firearms, no sci-fi nonsense, just a raw, harsh world where survival really feels realistic.

I have spent several hundred hours in Conan Exiles, mostly crafting for myself and my friends in co-op. With mods, you can even turn the game into a real RPG, and I have even tried role-playing on corresponding servers.

The biggest motivation, however, remains exploration. Conan Exiles has so many beautiful spots, secret NPCs, and cool recipes that there’s always some new goal. Special tip: Conan Exiles is included in Xbox Game Pass for Xbox and PC.

Suitable for

Anyone looking for a new survival game with co-op
Fans of the Conan franchise and former “Age of Conan” players
Anyone seeking mature entertainment
Creative players with a penchant for unusual bases or towns
Owners of the Xbox Game Pass

Not suitable for

Anyone who quickly frustrates from frequent deaths or difficult entrances
Total story fanatics – the story is there, but it is not the absolute focus
Anyone who is not interested in survival games
Anyone who is bothered by nudity

24th place: Outriders

Start video

Outriders: Worldslayer Launch Trailer

Autoplay

What is the game about? Outriders is a dark shooter with a science-fantasy setting. Humanity has destroyed Earth and is now searching for a new home in the vastness of space.

You take on the role of an so-called Outrider and are tasked with exploring the planet Enoch, a potentially new habitat for humanity. Upon arriving on the planet, you not only come across a mysterious signal of unknown origin, but also a strange and dangerous anomaly, a type of supernatural storm.

Due to unfortunate circumstances, your character ends up in cryo-sleep and wakes up 30 years later. In the meantime, Enoch has been colonized, but humanity finds itself caught in old conflicts.

During your journey, you discover that you can suddenly use special abilities that were awakened in you by the anomaly storm. Throughout the Outriders campaign, you will find out what the mysterious signal and the anomaly storm are about. You’ll need to fend off the dangers of Enoch as well as other people.

This is how you play: Outriders is a third-person shooter with a cover system that focuses on its story and loot system. There is no PvP.

You first choose from one of the four classes:

Technomancer: This class is considered an all-rounder and uses various gadgets like a freezing cannon, rocket launcher, or minigun with its skills. It has bonuses on ranged weapons and can heal its entire group as the only class in Outriders.
Pyromancer: The Pyromancer is described by the developers as a crazy fire mage. It is particularly strong at medium ranges. Its skills burn enemies, and its strengths lie in holding entire enemy hordes at bay.
Devastator: The Devastator is like the tank and frontline fighter in Outriders. It can control gravity and can, for example, mix whole groups with earthquakes. It can also float in the air and launch fatal falling attacks from above. Additionally, it can impale enemies with earth pillars and deflect enemy projectiles with a magnetic field.
Trickster: This class controls space and time, can teleport itself with skills or slow down enemies in a kind of temporal bubble. It also has something like an energy blade that can dissolve enemies into skeletons and make them explode. It is pretty fast and zips between enemies.

After the campaign, you will find the 15 expeditions awaiting you, offering some extra missions to collect the best loot in the game. There are a total of 11 different weapon classes – from assault rifles to sniper rifles, including well-known classics. There’s also the double gun, which fires from two magazines simultaneously.

The difficulty level of Outriders is determined by the 15 world ranks. The higher your world rank, the greater the challenge. You will get better equipment. There’s also a practical crafting system to customize your weapons and armor perks.

In June 2022, the new DLC named Worldslayer was released, in which you fight against a powerful opponent named Ereshkigal. This DLC offers new weapons, mods, skills, and expands the endgame with new content.

Even if Outriders does not forgive mistakes and presents a very rough experience, the entry is accessible. The journey with its increasingly difficult tasks is a guide through the game. Therefore you can follow the quite exciting story and always have a goal if you ever get stuck.

You also need to learn to fight for your survival. Each weapon offers different combat styles. You will even encounter dungeons with real puzzles and bosses rewarding you with unique items and recipes while exploring.

Furthermore, since the “Age of Sorcery” update, there is a real magic system where you need to weave your spells. Through sacrifices and more, you learn spells that come with their costs: You pay for it with health.

An important feature is slaves and pets. Slaves help you in combat or work for you in your base workshops. The wild animals of the land can be tamed and serve as mounts if you manage to subjugate them.

How does co-op gameplay work? In Outriders, you can complete all content of the game in co-op with up to two other players. Missions are repeatable, and the progress is shared.

Every player also collects their own loot; you cannot take anything from anyone, nor can you lose your drops to others.

You can either play specifically with friends or use the player search. You are not restricted to a platform; crossplay is activated by default.

Conclusion on Outriders

Outrider Tarek Zehrer: Outriders is an incredibly fun shooter. Its greatest strength lies in the classes and the loot system. Each of the four classes stands out from the others and has its own quirks.

One feels like a supernatural killing machine while slicing through monsters and humans. Especially in co-op with friends, it’s also a blast to combine different abilities.

The loot system is incredibly motivating, and the cycle of searching for and improving gear kicks in right from the first mission. However, in the endgame, things can quickly feel stale.

But that doesn’t matter, because by then you’ve already had countless hours of fun, and even the campaign can entertain. It offers enough variety and scope.

The story quality may be debatable; however, anyone not expecting a complex thriller who is unbothered by brutality and simply seeks bloody popcorn action with a hint of seriousness and social critique is exactly right here.

What is the game about? In Unravel Two, you traverse the world as two yarn figures called Yarnis, connected by a thread. During the journey through different areas of the world, they not only chase a golden glow but also follow the story of two boys.

The story is completely devoid of dialogue and leaves much to the interpretation. The boys, who remain in the background of the 2D world, seem to come from an abusive household and do everything they can to escape from there together.

Although Unravel Two also deals with themes like abuse and fear, there is always a hopeful tone in the game, making it, along with the relaxing soundtrack, a positive gaming experience.

This is how you play: The two yarn figures climb and swing their way through a two-dimensional world that showcases green forests, a burning barn, or bustling factories as a backdrop.

However, the two can never get too far from each other as the thread connecting them has a limited length. At the same time, both also have an open thread that they can use like a lasso. Thus, they can either pull themselves up to higher branches, swing over chasms, or by tying their rope to an anchor point, create bridges or trampolines.

Much teamwork is required between the Yarnis. There are spots that can only be reached by one yarn figure acting as an anchor point while the other swings to distant platforms via the connected thread. In another instance, one Yarny must distract an angry chicken, allowing the other to slip through a secret passage.

In addition to the story mode, Unravel Two also provides some challenges that involve tricky environmental puzzles or difficult platforming challenges. These demand a lot of skill but reward you with new options to visually customize your yarn figure with new colors.

Our colleagues from GamePro scored the game 81 points in their detailed review.

How does co-op gameplay work? You can play Unravel 2 either alone or in local co-op. If playing alone, you can switch between the yarn figures. If playing in local co-op, each of you takes on one Yarny. Cooperation is especially important here. Even though you can move relatively independently (only as far as the connected thread allows), good timing is crucial if you want to successfully navigate many of the jumping and swinging passages together. In some cases, you can also connect to one Yarny so that one of you takes over the controls when it gets too challenging for the other.

Conclusion on Unravel Two

Yarn Master Eleen Reinke: I love co-op games where I can just play with friends without worrying about PvP. And even though I’m pretty terrible at platforming – and Unravel 2 has some challenging sections – the game was never really frustrating. That’s also because my co-op partner and I could help each other out when the other got stuck.

This makes Unravel 2 much more fun to play together than alone. Sure, it’s stressful when we have to find the perfect timing to let one Yarny swing safely to the other side before we release the thread, but after a while, the right rhythm grooves itself automatically and jumping and swinging becomes really enjoyable.

Aside from the gameplay, Unravel 2 also shines with its mood, which can be cheerful at times and melancholic at others. It always leaves me with a warm feeling after playing.

Suitable for

Fans of challenging platformers
Fans of feel-good games
Anyone seeking a short, loving gaming experience
Indie fans
Friends of stylized comic graphics

Not suitable for

Anyone who places a lot of value on the story
Anyone who dislikes short gaming experiences with little replay value

Player finds the best item in Diablo 4 after 300 Duriel runs, has more luck than most

Benedict Grothaus 12. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

In the current Season 2 of Diablo 4, you can finally farm Uber Uniques, the most sought-after items in the game, on purpose. Many players defeat the corresponding boss dozens of times – and it doesn’t always work. The community shares their experiences.

What kind of boss is this?

Uber Duriel is a new boss in Diablo 4 that you first have to summon with effort by collecting materials and defeating other bosses.
The boss itself is a stronger version of Duriel, whom you encounter during the campaign of the game. He primarily fights with poison attacks.
The special thing about Uber Duriel is that you can best farm the coveted and controversial Uber Uniques with him. These items are the strongest in the game for most classes, although not necessary for a build.

This is the result: A player shares on Reddit that he has already received 4 of the Uber Uniques with over 300 kills: Doombringer, the Ring of the Starless Skies, the Harlequin’s Crown (or simply: “Shako”) and the Grandfather.

All the items have dropped in the past 3 weeks, mostly during the doubled loot chances, which no longer apply. The most important item, Shako, he only received today, on January 11.

However, the player did not reveal how many of each dropped. His information triggers a discussion among fans because there apparently are significantly unluckier players – but also some with much more loot luck.

For Diablo 4, the first expansion is already known:

“400 without an Uber, I’ve finished with the season”

In the comments, players discuss their own loot rates. Some users with 150 and even over 400 kills on Duriel say: they haven’t found any Uber Unique at all. That is so frustrating that they stop playing the season.

A particularly unlucky case claims to have found an Uber Unique only after 500 attempts. Shako has not dropped even after 800 kills.

From a user with more luck, it is said: he has gotten after 500 runs

4 x Andariel’s Visage
3 x the Melted Heart of Selig
and 2 x the Ring of the Starless Skies.

Looking at the numbers as a whole, the player with his (probably) 4 Uber Uniques after 300 runs seems to be doing quite well on average. Similar numbers were obtained by the expert Rob2628.

He put together a group with 3 other players and then defeated Duriel directly 540 times, roughly double as often as the player in the latest thread on Reddit. The result of the expert: 43 Uber Uniques for the group, which is about 11 per character. This gives him a drop chance of about 2% – although he didn’t have a Harlequin’s Crown in the loot.

WoW: Patch notes for patch 10.2.5 – How your class changes on Wednesday

Cortyn 12. January 2024 Reading time 3 minutes

The classes in World of Warcraft are changing again. We have all the adjustments that will go live soon.

The next patch of World of Warcraft Dragonflight is just around the corner. The “Seed of Renewal” update brings not only some fresh content, such as the epilogue of the Dragonflight story or an interesting archaeology substitute, but also a few changes to the existing classes. In many cases, these are only small adjustments that you should keep an eye on to avoid any problems.

What is changing? The biggest changes affect the former “Covenant abilities” from Shadowlands, which have now become an integral part of many talent trees. Not only do these abilities get a new look visually, but their damage type can also change in some cases.

This is particularly important for the Demon Hunter, as “The Hunt” will no longer deal Nature damage but will instead deal Chaos damage. This ensures that the ability interacts better with some talents, but also makes certain trinkets that were triggered by dealing Nature damage useless.

Can you regain the old look of the abilities? No, not yet. However, Blizzard has already announced that they are working on a way to restore the original look of these abilities. This will likely happen through the glyph system in an upcoming patch.

Start video

What’s new in the patch? In addition to the class changes, there are also a number of new features.

Additionally, two different transmog sets will be added that fans have been eagerly requesting.

So there is a lot to do in the next patch – and according to the roadmap, the subsequent update is also not too far away.

New event reminds trainers of last year’s Dragon Fairy event

In the subreddit “TheSilphRoad” about Pokémon GO, trainers are already discussing the announcement. Some criticize the planned contents as they don’t offer much new – apart from the shiny debut of Wommel.

Some trainers miss the debut of a new fairy Pokémon (via reddit) or a new mega evolution (via reddit), while others suggest that at least the Flabébé versions should have rotated (via reddit).

However, the discussion is primarily about a similar event from last year: “Sparkling Fantasy,” which appeared in January 2023 and was praised by many. Just like the current event, “Sparkling Fantasy” focused on fairy Pokémon – but together with dragon Pokémon.

It also featured the debut of Mega-Altaria. And while that event was seen as a strong start to the year, some trainers view this year’s fairy event as weaker (via reddit).

However, trainers also point out that some of the fairy monsters in the current event are quite useful and definitely worth a catch.

In addition to “Fairy Dreams,” several other events for this month have already been announced. To keep you informed, you can check here: All events in January 2024 in Pokémon GO.

Diablo 3: Season 30 starts today – Everything about the topic, balancing, and patch notes

Patrick Freese 12. January 2024 Reading time 10 minutes

The start of Season 30 in Diablo 3 is just around the corner. In line with this, there are patch notes with balance changes and a familiar seasonal theme. We show you all the details in the overview.

When does Season 30 start? On January 12, 2024, at 5:00 PM German time, Season 30 in Diablo 3 begins. The seasonal theme is “the rulers of hell” and brings the soul shards and essences of these rulers back into the game.

These contents were already present in Season 25 and were well-received by the community. We show you how the theme works and what else to expect here.

Season 30 Overview

The seasonal theme: During the season, you will find soul shards and sparks from the hell forge. You can equip large shards in headgear and small shards in weapons. With the sparks from the hell forge, the shards can be upgraded three times. With the shards, you unlock very strong bonuses, but there are restrictions:

You can only equip one soul shard of the greater evils
and one soul shard of the lesser evils

All soul shards and their strong bonuses in the overview

Cosmetic rewards: You can look forward to a chest protection and gloves from the exclusive Conqueror set. Additionally, you can unlock various portrait frames adorned with blood shards. In line with this, you can receive the All Saints’ flag. We show you how the contents look in this graphic:

Starter sets: As you know from the seasons in Diablo 3, you can earn Haedrig’s gifts by completing chapters 2, 3, and 4. If you open all with the same character, you receive a complete set. The set you can earn with the classes changes each season. This time there is the following selection:

Barbarian: The Legacy of Raekor
Crusader: Akkhan’s Armor
Demon Hunter: Marauder’s Gear
Monk: Inna’s Mantra
Necromancer: Pestilence’s Garb
Witch Doctor: Zunimassa’s Grasp
Wizard: Delseres Opus Magnum

This is the first season where Blizzard is reintroducing content from previous seasons. There will be no new themes. Blizzard confirmed that with Season 29, the last new content for Diablo 3 will come and shows how it will continue after that.

Nevertheless, D3 is intended to be kept alive and will rotate its content regularly.

On the next page, we will show you the patch notes with all balancing changes.

Survival MMO with 47,000 players had to leave Steam due to a lawsuit, is now back, begins testing

Benedict Grothaus 11. January 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

Myth of Empires was playable on Steam for a short time in 2021, then it disappeared. However, those few days were enough to prove significant interest. Now the survival game is available on the platform again and aims for the 1.0 release in February.

What kind of game is this?

Myth of Empires is a survival sandbox game that can roughly be described as Conan Exiles in ancient China.
The game features siege battles, character progression, skills and talents, and free construction of the environment.
Additionally, there are strategy elements in the form of clans that wage war against each other and NPC companions that act as troops.

When can I play Myth of Empires? Those who already own Myth of Empires can play it right now. It is currently in Early Access.

If you have not already purchased the game through its own shop, you currently cannot buy it anymore. The price is, according to the latest information, €30.

The team is currently planning a playtest that will run from January 23 to January 30. You can sign up directly on Steam for that.

The 1.0 release is scheduled for February 5. Additional features are expected to be added to the game, such as aerial combat using balloons and facilities for city defense.

Here you can see the 1.0 trailer for Myth of Empires:

Myth of Empires has actually been on Steam since 2021 and has since earned “mostly positive” reviews with 76%. Back then, it could already attract over 36,000 players, peaking at over 47,000 (via steamcharts).

However, shortly after its release in Early Access, there was a dispute with the creators of ARK: Survival Evolved. They accused the studio behind Myth of Empires of stealing source code.

As a result of the dispute, Myth of Empires was eventually banned from Steam and could no longer be purchased or played there. The developers circumvented the ban with their own shop in early 2022.

However, the sandbox MMO has been available on Steam again for a few months now and is also offering the upcoming playtests there. In October 2023, the dispute was resolved and all parties have jointly stated that they are working together on the release. We will check whether Myth of Empires can make its way into our best survival games for PC, PS5, and Xbox.
