A part of the community is currently facing a major issue with ARC Raiders. Twitch streamer shroud even plans to take a break because of this.
Why is shroud complaining? In ARC Raiders, cheaters have become a big problem over the holidays. shroud is therefore frustrated and announced during a livestream that he would take a longer break from the extraction shooter: “This could be my last day playing for a long time. At least for a few weeks.” (Source: Jake Lucky via X)
He demands that the situation improves quickly and calls the current state of the game a waste of time. “Embark currently has zero control over the game,” judges the 31-year-old streamer.

Other players, including streamer “Nadeshot”, echo a similar sentiment. He writes on X that the extent of cheaters could currently be worse than in Call of Duty.
No solution, but a Discord bot
This is the studio’s response: On Discord, a user asked if the studio had any plans to address the current issues with cheaters, such as adding the anti-cheat system from The Finals, the studio’s other shooter.
“Birdie,” a community manager from Embark, responded to the player’s question and explained on Discord: “All reports in the game are being reviewed, but this can take some time.” However, he did not disclose whether Embark has further plans in the fight against cheaters.
If one wants to expedite the reporting process, according to Birdie, one can send a message to ScrappyMail on Discord. This is a Discord bot that the team provides for submitting feedback for players. The team can then forward the data to those who can take action against cheaters.
What to do while cheaters wreak havoc? You don’t have many options. If you can’t accept the problem or switch to another game, you could, however, use the aggression-based matchmaking to your advantage. The matchmaking of the shooter ensures that peaceful players are matched in lobbies with other peaceful players.
As RAM and SSDs continue to get more expensive, graphics cards are now back on the chopping block. This makes PC gaming increasingly unattractive for many users. In an interview, the CEO of NVIDIA gives reason for hope.
What did the CEO say? At the CES technology fair 2026 in Las Vegas, the computer magazine tomshardware asked NVIDIA’s boss, Jensen Huang, about the current graphics card prices. In a Q&A section, the magazine proposed an idea to counter the rising trend:
“New GPUs are going to be very expensive due to supply restrictions, let’s assume. Do you think it would be possible to resume production of older graphics card generations? Maybe for models that require less DRAM? Would that help?”
Jensen responded that it is definitely possible. He also explained that depending on the generation, new AI features could be added. It would require some engineering effort but would be feasible.
In conclusion, he told the magazine: “I will take a closer look at that, it’s a good idea.” This reaction is not unusual for him, as the CEO is always open to suggestions and works around the clock. Work-life balance is a foreign concept to him.
If you want to hold off a bit and the pricing situation in PC gaming is too precarious, you can take a look at the upcoming Steam Machine:

Old hardware should make gaming affordable again
How could older graphics cards help? Currently, prices for GPUs are rising. This means it is becoming harder to get a good price for a gaming PC. Furthermore, the fact that RAM has become so expensive, that some users are already calling for a boycott. Older, more affordable GPU generations, especially in the budget segment, would help.
An ASUS variant of the RTX 5070 TI, for example, has become nearly 100 euros more expensive since 07.12.2025 until today, 08.01.2026, and the trend is rising (via Geizhals).
The flagship model from NVIDIA, the RTX 5090, is not exempt from price increases either. From 09.12.2025 to 08.01.2026, its price has risen from 2,599 euros to 3,289 euros (via Geizhals), an increase of nearly 700 euros.
If NVIDIA were to flood the market with older, affordable graphics cards, buying a gaming PC would once again be cost-effective.
NVIDIA could give older graphics cards the necessary boost with AI
Which features would help gamers? Older graphics cards typically deliver less performance compared to newer generations and are not always sufficient to run new games at the highest graphics settings smoothly. However, this is where Jensen’s idea comes into play.
If NVIDIA can bring features like frame generation to 30 series GPUs or multi-frame generation to the 40 series, they will gain a performance boost that would make those hardware generations more attractive.

Dodrio
Which attacks are optimal? The best attacks for Dodrio are Peck, Drill Peck, and Brave Bird.

What is this Pokémon good for? Dodrio does not have high durability and may suffer against some types. However, it charges its charge attacks quickly, deals high damage with its fast attack, and can thus force the opponent to react and use their shields.
Tips and other strong monsters
What should I pay attention to when assembling a team? When assembling your team for the competition, pay attention to a balanced team so that not all have the same type weaknesses. You should also not only include monsters that cause a lot of damage but also those that can take a hit.
What should I pay attention to in battle? After you have fought some matches with your Pokémon, you should develop a feel for which of your monsters are good against which opposing monsters and when to switch them out.
Furthermore, you need to learn which attacks you must absolutely use shields against and which attacks deal you little damage. Not every enemy charge attack requires the use of a shield, and a shield later in the match can greatly influence the course of the battle.
Other good monsters: The monsters mentioned above are among the strongest monsters in the Sunshine Cup. In the following table, we have put together some alternatives for you that are harder to acquire or more expensive to level up.

In an interview with the Game Producer of Chrono Odyssey, Yoon Sang-tae, he revealed new information about the upcoming MMORPG. Performance was a major topic.
There were significant issues with the light and shadow effects in the game, graphics bugs, and above all, the poor performance was a major problem recently. In the interview, the head confirmed this feedback again and explained how they are currently working on it.
Chrono Odyssey is set to be released in 2026, and you can see the trailer for the MMORPG here:

Improvements where needed
What did the head reveal? In an interview with the Korean site gamevu.co.kr, the head revealed the problems and features the developers are currently working on and what new goals they have. The most important point of focus is performance, which they want to improve significantly.
The developers have set a goal that Chrono Odyssey should still be playable even with a Nvidia GTX 1060 from 2019, while they are aiming for performance on the RTX 2070. Particularly in terms of combat, they want to create a direct gameplay feeling.
How does it look in terms of fighting? Here, the developers want to stick to the motto “Easy to learn, hard to master”. They have added new hit reactions and specific knockback effects to make the impact of attacks clearer.
One of the strengths of Chrono Odyssey needs to be reworked again. The 1-vs-1 challenges “Chrono-Gates” are intended to give players a challenge that requires them to equip and upgrade their character independently before entering battle. Players are expected to fail at first simply because the challenges are really tough.
The developers want to add a selectable difficulty level so that players do not get stuck for too long on an insurmountable challenge.
By the way, there is a new roadmap and fresh content for Where Winds Meet. We will present what exactly is included in Patch 1.2 on the MeinMMO YouTube channel.

What is happening at the theme park? Besides the fights, the developers of Chrono Odyssey are also using the delay to expand their theme park. The head explained in the interview that players can level up not only through combat but also through collecting and crafting.
Creative ideas from players, such as carrying bombs from other regions to bosses for easier completion, are also to be retained, as long as they are not used just for trolling.
The developers of Elder Scrolls Online have announced major changes for the MMORPG in 2026. MeinMMO summarizes how the plans are received by the community.
What has been announced? During a livestream, the developers of Elder Scrolls Online revealed the plans for 2026 on January 7, 2026. Some of the key announcements include:
The MMORPG is transitioning to a fixed seasonal model with 4 seasons per year, each lasting 3 months.
All future playable content for ESO will be free for everyone with access to ESO starting from the launch of “Season Zero”. The Content Pass from 2025 is history. Instead, there will be a new Battle Pass system.
With the upcoming seasons as well as updates, many community requests will be implemented, and experiments will be undertaken (such as the introduction of ship battles on the high seas).

Some anger, but also a lot of praise
How is the community reacting to the announcements? At first glance, quite mixed. This is mainly because many players criticize the new payment model. Curious-Tome writes on Reddit: “Monthly subscription plus paid Battle Pass plus paid Premium Battle Pass plus loot boxes… that’s just crazy.”
Other players agree with the criticism:
InBlurFather explains on Reddit: “It’s ridiculous to have two paid Battle Passes in addition to ESO+. I would have given them a chance if they had announced that ESO+ would be canceled and all previous DLCs/expansions would be granted to all players + a crafting bag with two tiered Battle Passes. But the Premium Battle Pass + ESO+ is crazy.”
NJH_in_LDN adds on Reddit: “I think ESO has the worst of everything in terms of monetization. There’s a purchase price for the game, a subscription that provides most content (but not all), and now also Battle Passes?”
Karzak85 criticizes this on Reddit: “So ESO+ and Crown Store AND Battle Pass? Now they just need P2W items and they’ve gold-plated everything.”
Among all the critical comments, there are also players defending the new payment model. The main reason: all upcoming gameplay-related content will be free. Various previously paid content will be gradually integrated into the base game.
ITrageGuy writes on Reddit: “What am I missing here? This sounds great. The only paid addition is the paid Battle Passes, everything else is free. Are we just hating for the sake of hating?”
The roadmap of ESO for 2026
“These are all great changes”
What is being praised? Indeed, while scanning the countless comments on Reddit and the official forum, we got the impression that the plans for 2026 are receiving widespread praise apart from the new monetization.
Cooperharley celebrates on elderscrollsonline.com: “10 out of 10, I’m excited. Great victory.”
LunaFlora agrees in the forum: “Thank you so much. I’m really looking forward to 2026. I especially love that we can hide all outfit pieces. The visual refresh of the Dragonknight looks so epic, I’m also really looking forward to the Warden.”
DedlyX7 praises another thing on Reddit: “That the DLCs and Greymoor are landing in the base game is great news for all non-subscribers.”
Kestrel_Five evaluates the quality of life improvements on Reddit: “These are all great changes that I believe improve quality of life and reduce the grind.”
Brickthedummydog emphasizes that on Reddit: “It’s nice to see. These are a series of small quality of life improvements that have been demanded for ages!”
The list of planned quality of life improvements.
How does MeinMMO editor Karsten Scholz evaluate the announcement? Over the past years, former Game Director Rich Lambert always explained to me that certain things are either impossible or difficult to implement in the now rather outdated engine of Elder Scrolls Online.
I am thus all the more surprised now that experiments like ship battles on the high seas or the often-requested increase in the number of furniture for certain home sizes are to come.
Also cool: The developers are finally addressing the long-standing criticism regarding the low difficulty level of Elder Scrolls Online: with the selectable difficulty levels for the open world and the apparently very challenging event zone that is to come with Season 0.
I can understand the criticism of the seasonal model and the new Battle Pass. I am not a fan of this type of service and monetization, regardless of the genre. The Content Pass 2025 from last year was even worse because it was expensive and mandatory for anyone wanting the new content.
I therefore find it also very good that in the future, new classes, dungeons, raids, quest content, and zones will simply be received through free updates (if they are good and fun) and that the great content from, for example, Greymoor and Orsinium is to land in the base game.
Some of the comments to the stream also show that many players who currently avoid Elder Scrolls Online are not attracted by the announced improvements. Partly because the crafting bag, which is essential for crafting, still belongs to the paid ESO+ subscription, and partly because many find fighting unenjoyable.
While the developers are planning comprehensive adjustments for all classes, it is likely that the basic combat experience will not change significantly. This keeps many players actually interested in Tamriel at bay. You can learn more about this in the following article: In Elder Scrolls Online, all classes are in for a revamp, player asks: “Are you crazy?”

A Pokémon fan wants to secure his pocket monsters for future generations. To do this, he has purchased the necessary equipment and is even thinking of cables and batteries.
How did the player manage that? On Reddit, a user proudly shows how he has stored all his Pokémon games and consoles in a protective case. The pictures show foam layers with cutouts specifically for the games, Poké Balls, and consoles.

The pictures show that he even thought of batteries that need to be used for the Game Boys. Additionally, he packed charging and link cables that are supposed to be in the Poké Balls.
The project took a total of 3 weeks. He contacted the manufacturer of the protective case and negotiated this Pokémon project as a collaboration with them. In the comments, one of the employees who seems to have worked on the case even appears. He is happy to see what has become of this project by chance.

Why can Mauzi actually speak in the Pokémon series?
Pokémon should not only have multiple generations but also survive them
Why did he do that? As the Pokémon fan writes, he wants to ensure that Pokémon would survive an apocalypse. He still has every single pocket monster he has ever caught. Therefore, he really wants to keep the spirit of Pokémon alive.
On the manufacturer’s page of the protective case, it states that such a case would withstand extreme pressure changes and impacts. Moreover, it would be waterproof. These are already good prerequisites for the case to withstand natural disasters.
What do others say about it? In the comments, there are other users who had a similar idea. A Dragon Ball fan, for example, created a case containing the 7 Dragon Balls. Another user, on the other hand, had a case constructed for all of his portable Nintendo consoles.
A user brings up what some might be thinking: What would the player do when new Pokémon games are released? But the Pokémon fan also has a fitting answer for that:
I already mentioned that I will store new games accordingly, as they can be digital. Ending with Z-A as a cartridge seemed sensible to me.
The top comment, however, notes how expensive such a hobby is and that he can only afford it if he wins the lottery. The case actually costs over 667 € in the shop, and other manufacturers like AUER Packing charge triple-digit prices for such dimensions.
Esports players repeatedly talk about their thousands of hours of gameplay in Counter-Strike 2. But cadiaN reveals that many of them are being dishonest.
Who is it about? Casper Alexander Ahm Møller (30), better known as CadiaN, has been playing Counter-Strike professionally for many years. He is currently playing for the team of the Danish eSports organization “OG,” which he joined in November 2025.
Previously, CadiaN had already worked for various teams, including Astralis, Team Liquid, and Heroic. With them, he was able to achieve some successes, such as winning the ESL Pro League Season 13 with Heroic, where he made history in the Pro League with a legendary 1v4 clutch in the deciding round (for those feeling nostalgic: YouTube).

Pros brag about false numbers
What exactly does CadiaN say? In a clip on OG’s social media channels, CadiaN shares that some pro players lie when they boast about their play hours (OG via X). He says:
“I’ve been bootcamping a lot with people as well, who, when they go to bed, they dont turn off the PC and they’re stilll in game. And at some point, they’re in an interview and they’re saying, ‘Oh, I have played 22,000 hours of Counter-Strike,’ and I just think: ‘Well, that’s not really true.'”
Then CadiaN explains that they want to impress not only their fans but also the team’s coaches: “Some players just want to show their coaches how hard they work and they are kind of trying to boost their hours in ways like this to pretend hardworking and stuff.”
What does CadiaN say about the false numbers? The Danish pro doesn’t think much of it. He prefers not to distort his play hours and instead see the real numbers. This way, he can better analyze if his playtime that week played a role in his fluctuating performance, whether he perhaps played too much or too little that week, and thus performed worse.
A player orders RAM and is soon confronted with a new bill. Naturally, he is quite angry and disappointed. The community considers such behavior to be illegal and urges the affected individual to contact consumer protection.
A player reports on Reddit that he intended to order RAM from a provider on December 31, 2025. According to the user, the original price was 446.99 Canadian dollars (approximately 275.80 euros). Specifically, it was a DDR5 kit from Kingston (2 x 16 GB), not the RAM depicted on the cover image.
He explained that although he had placed the order, the seller significantly delayed the shipping. He learned the reason for the delay a good week later, on January 7, 2026: A formal email from the seller informed him that the price for the RAM was being adjusted: Instead of 446.99, he now had to pay 507.99 Canadian dollars (approximately 315 euros). That’s a hefty increase of 13.65%.
The formal email states the reason for the price increase: Due to AI-induced shortages of components, manufacturers are no longer obligated to adhere to delivery dates or guarantee prices.

The price adjustment remains visible thanks to Google
The price adjustment can also be clearly traced on the website: Google still displays the old price of 446.99 Canadian dollars. However, when you click on the PC Canada website, you can already see the adjusted price that the user is now supposed to pay. We have included two images with the prices for you. This way, the price jump can be easily understood.
RAM PC Canada: New price for RAM, which is visible on the website.RAM PC Canada: old price, which is still visible through Google.
How does the community react? Many people from the community consider this approach illegal and point out that the affected user should definitely contact consumer protection. Adjusting prices after an order has been placed is not acceptable:
The real question is: Would they refund you if the price had dropped? The answer is clearly “No” … This is unethical and probably illegal.
Another user adds:
This is totally messed up, damn it. You already placed an order; price increases are the company’s problem, not yours. They have that coming when they sell RAM that they don’t even have yet.
While Rockstar is remaining tight-lipped about the work on GTA 6, an industry insider is now revealing the status of the game.
What does he say about the status of GTA 6? The industry expert Jason Schreier is always well-informed when it comes to the development of video games. In the podcast “Button Mash,” he has now talked about the status of GTA 6 and explained how far Rockstar Games is in the development.
According to him, the game is currently not “Content Complete”; the developers are still working on content for the game, such as missions. The game is really big, which is why they are currently making the final touches on the missions and levels and deciding what should still make it into the release version of the game and which content will not be completed.
Here you can watch the second trailer for GTA 6:
Start video
Rockstar Games presents GTA 6 in the second trailer
Another delay is not excluded
What does he say about the release date? After GTA 6 has already been pushed back twice by the developers at Rockstar Games, this could happen again, says Schreier. He states that even Rockstar Games does not know 100% if they will meet the release date on November 19, 2026.
The release window is seen as more realistic internally by the developers of GTA 6 compared to the previous release dates of fall 2025 and May 2026. At the same time, the expert emphasizes the risk of an overly early release.
Jason Schreier says in the podcast: “The entire stock price of Take-Two rises and falls with this game.” According to him, the stock price would fall by 10% every time there is a new delay. In fact, the stock price jumped significantly upward upon the announcement of GTA 6 and has also fallen several times with the delays in the past, but then experienced another increase.
According to the expert’s assessment, the developers of GTA 6 will look towards October to see if the game is finished and, if in doubt, announce another delay. At the same time, he assumes that they still aim to release GTA 6 in the financial year 2026, which at Take-Two runs until March 2027.
How are fans reacting to the information? The expert’s assessment is causing unrest among fans. They are wondering why the developers announced GTA 6 at all in 2023 if they still do not have all the content in the game by 2026.
In the community on Reddit, there is significant dissatisfaction regarding the ongoing delays, paired with the information about the unfinished game. Players like Big_Homie_Kratos presumed on Reddit that Rockstar Games would have long been working on polishing and bug-fixing and that missions and levels were already finished.
Whether GTA 6 will have to postpone its release again or if the developers will indeed finish on time will likely only become clear in a few months. However, by November 19, it will be clear how things stand with GTA 6.

Dune: Part Three continues the epic adaptation of Frank Herbert’s science fiction classic Dune. In the following article, you will find all the important information about the movie.
What is Dune 3? Dune 3, also known as Dune: Part Three, is the third installment of the Dune series by director Denis Villeneuve. After the first two films adapted the first book “Dune”, the sequel focuses on the second book titled “Dune Messiah”.
Is there a trailer for Dune 3? So far, no official trailer or teaser for the film has been released. As soon as that happens, we will update the article and show you the trailer. However, the announcement of Part 2 already gives a rough idea, for which you can find a review on MeinMMO:

When is the release of Dune 3? The science fiction film already has a release date and will be in theaters on December 18, 2026.
Who is streaming Dune 3? The film will be released in theaters. Subsequently, it will likely land on one of the various streaming services. Where exactly is still unclear, but in the past, the predecessors were available on subscriptions like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video.
Dune 3: Cast and plot
Who is in the cast of Dune 3? As it is a sequel, many actors return to their roles. Leading the way is Timothée Chalamet, who reprises his role as protagonist Paul Atreides, now under a new name as Emperor Paul Muad’Dib. Alongside him, old and new faces will also appear.
What is the plot of Dune 3? The film continues the story of its predecessors, but only after a time jump of twelve years. Paul rules as Emperor and is particularly regarded as a Messiah by the Fremen. This position has allowed him to conquer foreign cultures, but at the same time, his influence is in danger of slipping away.
Compared to the predecessors, Dune 3 is likely to be somewhat less action-packed, as the story of the second book is generally more contemplative, philosophical, and sometimes even psychedelic. The success of the film will also determine whether and how the series will continue in theaters. An earlier attempt to adapt the book failed: The craziest Dune film was never made, yet it influenced many other sci-fi movies like Alien

About 2 years ago, a digital girl made her debut on Steam. Many users decorated their own profiles with her. However, she has not been seen on Steam for about a year, which is why many players miss her painfully.
What kind of girl is she? The girl with pink hair is often referred to as “Steam Delivery Girl” or “Steam Sale Girl”. She was drawn by the Chilean artist Nemupan, often wears a helmet with cat ears, and rides a moped. Always by her side: a small, plump cat.
For the first time, the Delivery Girl appeared during the Spring Sale 2024. Here, players could buy avatars with her in the point shop or purchase profile backgrounds and stickers for chat featuring the pink-haired girl.
During the Summer, Autumn, and Winter Sale 2024, the girl returned with her moped to the point shop. Valve usually commissions different artists each year to design the banners for the 4 major sales. However, the year 2024 was dominated by the same artist.

Players speculate about what the Delivery Girl might be delivering right now
What has become of the Delivery Girl? Since Valve wants to give other artists the chance to design the banners for the sales, the Delivery Girl will not be returning for the time being. About a year ago, after the Winter Sale 2024, the artist said goodbye to her fans on Instagram with a farewell letter:
I want to write a few final words to conclude the project and wrap up this fantastic year. I want to thank the community for all the nice messages, fan art, and memes. I have loved every bit of it.
The Steam Delivery Girl is still a part of the point shop.
On Instagram or X, you can still admire her art. But the official Delivery Girl remains missing. Fans on Reddit are therefore speculating about what she is currently delivering.
hg2c writes: “The reason the Steam Delivery Girl is missing is that she is currently delivering a large package, which is Half-Life 3.”
Yindy_ still enjoys her: “She is always there when I start my Steamdeck.”
Limp-Celebration-211 hopes for a soon return: “Maybe she will appear again with an animation of her delivering the Steam Machine.”
However, whether and when the Steam Delivery Girl will return is not known. This will only be revealed with future sales.

The first streamer from team Sauercrowd has reached the maximum level 60 with his character in WoW Classic! On the hardcore servers, this is a remarkable achievement celebrated by many players.
Who did it first? Last night, Hahn became the first streamer from the Sauercrowd guild to reach level 60 in WoW Classic Hardcore. This is a remarkable achievement for several reasons.
On these special servers of World of Warcraft, every virtual death means the immediate end of the character. Many of Hahn’s fellow players have impressively demonstrated how quickly that can happen in recent days. Even seemingly harmless elevators can be deadly in Azeroth. Hahn did not die even once on his journey.
Moreover, one must be faster than the sometimes very experienced WoW competition. Four more members of Sauercrowd are still in the high 50s level range: riirex, dhalucard, sieglinde, and tolkin. Therefore, a big congratulations to Hahn from us!

WoW Classic: The Hardcore Servers Are Here!
Tears in Goldshire
What was the moment like? Of course, Hahn’s last level-up was streamed live on Twitch. When the stream was about 3 hours and 50 minutes old, Hahn set off to Goldshire to collect the remaining experience points by completing a quest. There, many characters were already waiting for him to celebrate the moment together with the streamer.
The streamer was visibly moved by this. As he approached the quest giver, he could no longer hold back the tears of joy. Happy, he said: “Thank you so much for letting me be part of this project.” Then came a greeting to the Sauercrowd leadership, a click, and ding! Level 60.

Who is Hahn? The streamer is only 24 years old but has been creating gaming content on Twitch since January 2015. He is one of the smaller content creators from Germany who is now gaining much more attention through the Sauercrowd project.
As Hahn stated himself on X in December 2025: “I have been stuck at ~26,000 to 28,000 followers for years, and there was never any movement. Now, after all these years, I’ve broken through the 30,000 followers on Twitch – I owe it all to #sauercrowd.” Now it’s even more than 41,270 followers.
Hahn reached a second milestone on January 2, 2026. On X, the streamer stated: “The first time in 11 years without a host hitting 1000 viewers. I had 20 three months ago. What the hell is going on????? THANK YOU HOLY SHIT #SAUERCROWD.”
An author examined how easy it is to set up Windows. However, as the operating system gets younger, it becomes more extensive.
Taras Buria, a writer at Neowin.net, has explored in an article how extensive the setup of a Windows operating system is: He tested all systems from Windows Vista to Windows 11.
The setup of the popular operating system has changed significantly in the past 20 years, and not for the better. Buria describes today’s experience “as having to fend off an annoying salesperson rather than quickly making basic settings before getting to the desktop.”
The Steam Machine from Valve, by the way, does without the Windows operating system.We have embedded the trailer here for you:

Setting up Windows Vista took a few clicks, while Windows 11 is anything but user-friendly
How long does setup take? The very old systems Windows Vista and 7 can be set up relatively quickly and easily: You need no more than 5 or 6 clicks, apart from entering the username and password once. Windows Vista dates back to 2006, which is now nearly 20 years ago.
From Windows 8 onward, the number of pages and settings rises to 8, but most features can be disabled and/or rely on so-called opt-in: You must consciously decide to activate certain features. There is no obligation here.
From Windows 10 onward, Microsoft uses significantly sharper methods for setting up its operating system: There are fewer options than in Windows 8, but all features are enabled by default, which is not optimal in terms of privacy. However, you can still disable most settings.
What about Windows 11? Windows 11, on the other hand, significantly expands the scope of pages and advertisements: In total, there are 18 pages with many features, advertisements, and poorly placed buttons, making it possible for you to accept things you may not have wanted. The declination of certain features is also hidden behind additional pages.
As a bonus, the advertisements for certain Microsoft products in Windows 11 are ubiquitous after setup: You will find references to Game Pass, the Edge browser, and Microsoft 365 in many places in your system. Even useful features are reportedly undermined by advertisements, and a rejection is hidden behind several sub-pages.
What does the community say? Users in a Reddit thread, also draw a similar conclusion as the author, where the analysis is discussed. Many users recommend various tools to clean up Windows 11 and remove annoying notifications.
Recommendations include “Windows 11 Debloater” or “Chris Titus Tech’s Windows Utility,” with which one can free their Windows installation from a lot of clutter. Another alternative: replacing Windows with Linux, which, however, is not always the easiest way.
The developers of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 have posted new job openings, but the job description reveals a major change that could significantly alter all new titles.
What is this change? The developers at Warhorse Studios, who published the medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 last year (2025), could soon switch from their current engine.
While the two “Kingdom Come” titles were still developed on the CryEngine, a job posting on tech-artists.org suggests that the developers are looking for new developers with knowledge of the Unreal Engine. According to a report by PCGamesN, tech ops lead Jakub Holik has been searching for a senior technical animator and a dev ops engineer.
Although Warhorse’s publisher Plaion does not want to comment on the rumors, the engine switch could bring significant changes.
Here you can watch the trailer for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2:

The Strength of the CryEngine
What would a switch mean? The game engine is the development environment that composes every game. The Unreal Engine, in comparison, is the most commonly used engine for new titles, and many new developments are created with this engine.
The CryEngine, which is used at Warhorse Studios, has become rarer now, even though many titles, such as Aion, Hunt: Showdown, and Prey, were successful with it.
However, the decreasing prevalence of the engine is a problem, as finding employees with the necessary skills to work with the program is more difficult than with the more well-known Unreal Engine. Many studios work with Unreal Engine, and many developers can handle it.
Yet the CryEngine also has some advantages. It provides particularly good graphics, even with poor hardware. For instance, you can play Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 with the almost 10-year-old GTX 1060.
A switch to the Unreal Engine would mean that the next title from the studio would look visually different and would particularly make concessions in terms of flora and fauna. However, it could be easier for the developers to recruit new staff.
A Change with Consequences
MeinMMO author Cedric Holmeier says: I love wandering through virtual Bohemia and can hardly get enough of the beautiful landscapes. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has a great strength in its graphics. As a village child, I feel at home in the games, as the forests and fields look much more realistic than in most other titles.
Similarly, like many other MMORPG fans, I can almost tell that games are now using Unreal Engine 5, which, although not negative, has made me personally a bit oversaturated with games that have the same look.
The CryEngine, however, was simply a strength of the studio, delivering a game with good performance and good graphics due to its great capabilities. Now, while many people are searching for jobs due to economic reasons, conducting a potential engine switch just to find it easier to recruit employees does not make sense to me.
A switch to Unreal Engine 5 for a potential Kingdom Come: Deliverance 3 or another RPG sounds harsh, as the developers would give up a clear strength. However, nothing is set in stone yet, and there remains hope for more beautiful landscapes thanks to the CryEngine.
A crafter shocks Reddit with a photo. He has been tasked with cleaning a computer, and it is something else. Dirt, smoke, and grime from years of use have built up in masses.
What did the crafter post? The user enhanced_flower1 shares in his Reddit post from January 6, 2026 a PC picture of a customer. He explains that the customer was wondering why his device was so slow.
Opening the computer later shocked the Reddit user. He writes: “How can something like this even happen?”
The device was wrapped in thick layers of smoke from top to bottom. The CPU cooler, graphics card, and power supply fan were completely covered. Even the cables were already infested with brown soot deposits.

The motherboard appears to be an Intel model from 2013, as the LGA 1150 socket is visible. This suggests that the PC is likely several years old and has probably never been cleaned before. Why this would have been a good idea is highlighted by another user, who cleans his PC for the first time after 8 years.
In the Reddit comments, the crafter posts a second picture of the device the same day after he had blown it out with compressed air. The difference is enormous. The smoke deposits have almost completely disappeared, but the insides are still heavily soiled.
If you don’t feel like cleaning a gaming PC, you can instead take a look at the contents of the Switch 2:

Cigarettes harm not only your health
How harmful is smoking for your hardware? The short answer is: It is harmful. Not only can important air circulation be interrupted by the additional dirt, but your devices can also wear out faster.
In the crafter’s example, the cooling of the PC was likely severely affected, which in turn negatively impacts the performance of the device. Modern processors slow down due to lack of cooling to protect against overheating. As a result, you actively lose performance.
But not only lack of cooling is a problem for hardware. Stuck dirt can corrode electronics due to moisture. Parts of the electronics can be slowly attacked and decomposed by chemical reactions. In particular, high temperatures can indicate poor PC hygiene. One user was even surprised that you have to clean your computer at all.
From dirty PCs to advertising for research
What else does the user point out? Although the post is designed as a joke, the Reddit user also draws attention to a project by Stanford University. The so-called Folding. He added the website link to the project in a follow-up the same day.
It is software intended to loan the computing power of your computer to Stanford University’s research. This is aimed at advancing research on diseases such as Alzheimer’s, cancer, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s.
According to the website, you do not have to provide sensitive data such as email or name, but you can for extra points within the application. You only need to install the software and choose how much power you want to lend and when.

Stranger Things shows in the trailer for Season 2 what happened to Will after he returned
Highest rated episode on IMDb: Episode 9 (Chapter nine: The Gate) with a rating of 9.3 out of 10 from over 46,800 ratings.
When I try to recall all the seasons of Stranger Things, I find it hardest with Season 2. After the fantastic first season, everything seemed a bit toned down. Many episodes are simply forgettable, and Will as such a central character didn’t always work for me.
Cool new characters like Max or Murray were introduced and the emotional moments around Bob worked as well. Unfortunately, the Mindflayer here falls short of its potential as a villain. Its design is really strong, but this ongoing threat from the being just doesn’t come across.
The season still has many good moments, but compared to the rest, it falls a bit short. Nevertheless, the season finale here is a spectacle.

In a long livestream, the developers of The Elder Scrolls Online presented their plans for 2026. There was hardly anything to see. However, all fans of the MMORPG can expect a flood of – partly surprising – innovations.
Back then, it was clear that 2025 would be a transitional year and that only in 2026 would the seasons and the promised experiments really kick off. The current livestream about the future of Elder Scrolls Online convincingly reinforced this. For almost 45 minutes, the developers bombarded the community on Twitch with a barrage of information bites. The key insights:
They want to continue bringing new content to Tamriel every quarter, but these should be more unpredictable and varied through the seasonal model than they have been in the past. 4 seasons per year, each lasting 3 months, are planned.
All future playable content for ESO (such as new quests, zones, features, dungeons, and so on) will be free for every owner of the ESO base game starting from the launch of “Season Zero” (this also applies to players via Xbox Game Pass or PlayStation Plus). No new Content Pass is planned for 2026.
Old, previously paid add-ons will be gradually integrated into the base game. Starting in March with Update 49, the Thieves Guild, the Dark Brotherhood, and Orsinium will be included.
A Battle Pass system will serve as a new monetization source; ESO Plus will continue to exist at the usual price, with the known benefits and some new bonuses (such as for progress in the Battle Pass or the cap for Transmutation Crystals). Anyone who subscribes to ESO Plus for a total of 12 months will receive a token each time for the most expensive version of the Battle Pass.
From Update 49, all platforms will receive new content simultaneously. Console players will therefore no longer have to wait several weeks longer than their PC counterparts.
Among the planned experiments they want to conduct in 2026 is the introduction of world oceans, large ships, and ship battles. An event zone for groups that will be significantly tougher than other content from ESO is also planned.
Successful experiments may find their way into the game more frequently or permanently in the future.

Historical Change
During the stream, the developers emphasized once again that a departure from the chapters was necessary to maintain the required flexibility for upcoming content. Each expansion tied up a large part of the team for around 18 months, with a release cycle of 12 months. There was never much time to respond to feedback from the community or to take risks.
The new direction is expected to feel historically significant for ESO in hindsight, similar to the launch of One Tamriel 10 years ago. Back then, the developers introduced flexible level scaling in the world and completely overhauled the endgame.
Part of this change includes involving players earlier in the development of new content. Through earlier availability, improved transparency, surveys, AMA rounds on Reddit, and clear responses on how feedback from the community has influenced content.
In addition, a new task force within the ESO team has been formed, which has only one job: to identify the most requested features and improvements from the community, assess their feasibility, and gradually bring the feasible wishes into the game. The first of these implementations will come with Update 49 (see below).
Tamriel is preparing for an exciting year in 2026.

Many detail improvements are also planned for the PvP area.
League of Legends begins its first season of the year on January 8, 2026. In line with this, the creators of the MOBA have released a new cinematic trailer that can be watched even by users who have never had anything to do with the game.
What kind of video is it? The first season is all about the theme “For Demacia”. Accordingly, some characters associated with the region of Demacia make an appearance, including Quinn and Garen. Sona is also seen in the trailer with her musical instrument.
The video description states:
In the darkest hours, there is always a glimmer of hope. The first season of 2026, For Demacia, is dawning. Stand up, defend the light, and fight for good.
The characters defend themselves in the video against a dark threat, which is represented in the form of shadows or a frightening dragon. In the background of the video, the song Salvation, created in collaboration with Forts, plays.

Cinematics excite people who don’t play LoL
How is the video received? In the comments below the YouTube video and on Reddit, there are mixed reactions. It’s noticeable: There are many commenters who don’t play League of Legends, but still enjoy watching the videos. One user mentioned he has been following the cinematics since 2018 but has never played LoL.
This is also reflected in the top comment: The writer states that he finds it brave how Hatsune Miku defends the city. He means Sona, who indeed looks a bit like Hatsune Miku with her turquoise braids. This refers to a virtual anime girl, who even got her own movie.
On one hand, there are users who wish that such cinematics would never stop. Players are excited to see certain characters. The appearance of Quinn surprised many.
On the other hand, some users feel that the song could have a bit more punch. One user wrote on Reddit that he feels like he hears the same song every season. Additionally, the lyrics are hardly audible in the song.

Not long now, and the servers of the MMO Anthem will be permanently shut down. While some players can no longer download the title, one user has taken the last few days to secure an important trophy.
What is the situation with Anthem? The MMO from publisher EA and developer BioWare was, in the eyes of many players, a bitter disappointment. Nevertheless, there are still fans of the title today. Recently, it was announced that the servers will go offline on January 12, 2026 – the final blow for a title designed for online play.
But even earlier, just a few days ago, users reported that they could no longer download and play the game. The problem apparently did not occur for all players. Those who were still able to connect to the servers are enjoying the last days and hours – including one user who accomplished a feat achieved by only 0.7% of all players.

The Prayers of the Grandmaster
Which user is being referred to? On Reddit, the player KingExile96 spoke up and proudly showed in his post that he received the final and rarest trophy of Anthem on January 5, 2026.
This is called “Grandmaster” and is awarded only to those players who managed to grab all the other 46 achievements of the game. In the case of Anthem, only a fraction of all users managed to do this – namely 0.7%. The platinum trophy can no longer be achieved after Anthem shuts down, making it even more valuable.

Under a screenshot that documents the achievement, the user expresses joy over his accomplishment and describes Anthem overall as “memorable.” He further expresses the wish that the developers would not shut the game down but rather hand it over to another company:
I want it to get another chance! It has potential. It was stressful to get the trophies, but it was also so much fun to roam around, fight bosses, and execute elemental combos… Man, I will miss this game so much. Anthem will remain in my heart.
In the comments under the post, other users join in the prayers that Anthem should please remain online. Another user, however, expresses little hope: “It’s EA, you might as well be talking to a wall.”
Even if the game will no longer be online soon, the player’s achievement remains. That he reached it at the last moment is remarkable. Are you among the 0.7% that can call themselves “Grandmaster” in Anthem? Feel free to share your experiences in the comments.
