The popular animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender is soon getting a live-action adaptation by Netflix. New images show what the main characters of the Fire Nation – including Zuko, Azula, and Iroh – will look like.
This is Avatar: The Last Airbender
The American animated series aired from 2005 to 2008 on Nickelodeon.
It follows the journey of young Aang, who, as the Avatar, can control all four elements – fire, water, earth, and air. Together with his new friends, such as waterbender Katara and her brother Sokka, he must learn to control his powers to protect the world from an invasion by the Fire Nation.
In 2010, there was already a live-action film titled “The Last Airbender,” which, however, did not receive a good response.
With “The Legend of Korra,” the franchise received a spin-off series in 2012.

What do we already know about the Netflix adaptation? After a delay of the originally planned release date, the series is now set to premiere in 2024. The project has been in planning at Netflix since 2018.
The exact plot details are still unknown. However, it is assumed that the content from the animated series will be adapted.
So far, there have been a few images of the main characters and a short trailer released.
Here’s what the new look of the Fire Nation looks like
Netflix has now released new images that give a first look at characters from the Fire Nation.
Among them is one of the main characters, Prince Zuko (played by Dallas Liu), who desperately tries to capture the Avatar to restore his honor. Also involved is Zuko’s uncle and mentor, General Iroh (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee).
Also seen are Zuko’s ruthless sister Azula (Elizabeth Yu), his merciless father Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim), and Admiral Zhao (Ken Leung).
Like most young stars of the series, the actors portraying Zuko and Azula are still relatively unknown.
Elizabeth Yu (Azula) was first seen in 2022 in the film “Somewhere in Queens.” Zuko actor Dallas Liu has been in the industry a bit longer. He made his first appearance in the film “Tekken” in 2009 and was also seen in the Marvel production “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.”
For the adult roles, Netflix has secured several veteran actors. For instance, Ken Leung (Admiral Zhao), who has been in the business for many years. After his debut in 1995, he appeared in films like “Saw,” “X-Men: The Last Stand,” and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.”
Probably the most well-known is Daniel Dae Kim (Fire Lord Ozai), with his appearances in prominent series like “Lost” and “Hawaii Five-o.”
How do you like the new images of the Netflix adaptation of Avatar? Are you looking forward to the release next year, or are you more skeptical?
If the series is successful, it would be a significant career step for the young actors to have portrayed such well-known characters. However, it is often only known afterwards, which leads to regrets about missed opportunities.
For example, Dougray Scott missed the chance to land 3 of the biggest film roles. You can read more about it here on MeinMMO:
A gamer places his computer by the window to cool it down. The temperatures noticeably drop. However, in the community, his brilliant idea is controversial.
Anyone who wants to game on PC ideally wants to avoid high temperatures inside the machine.
A gamer thought that he could use the fresh air from outside to cool his PC. But the vast majority are appalled.
Can outside air harm the gaming PC?
What exactly is the player doing? The user now shares on reddit that he has placed his gaming PC by the open window for good cooling. The result: the temperatures inside are noticeably better.
What are the reactions like? Pretty negative. Many believe that he would damage his hardware with this action. Because in the worst case, moisture could form inside the system.
Another explains, however, that he doesn’t have to worry just yet:
Physically speaking, condensation cannot form inside the case (or at least it is very unlikely). Condensation forms when hot/moist air meets a cold surface – hot objects do not sweat (when was the last time you saw condensation on a cup of coffee?).
As long as your room doesn’t actually reach 40 °C at 90% relative humidity, everything is fine.
It is much worse that he is probably running the air conditioning visible in the picture and thus wasting a lot of energy in the long run. Because air conditioners work best in closed rooms.
Others advise him to ensure better air circulation inside the PC instead of doing such nonsense.
Another gamer has already come up with the “brilliant” idea of cooling his PC with outside air:
What is the problem with heat? High temperatures inside a gaming system fundamentally stress the installed hardware. In particular, thermal paste can dry out, leading to reduced cooling performance.
Normally, at high temperatures, safety measures from manufacturers come into play to prevent anything from happening. But this has another downside: to manage the temperatures, performance is throttled.
Certain components are now designed for high temperatures. The video memory of the RTX 3090 can reach about 105 degrees. The new AMD CPUs of the 7000 series are also designed for temperatures beyond 100 degrees.
In the best case, you should regularly check whether the temperatures in your computer are okay. There are many free tools available to help you with this.
Other players also come up with creative ideas for their gaming systems. For example, one player used an old mailbox in the wall of his house to build in his PC. At the same time, he can use the air from outside for cooling:
The beta of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has ended and one gadget is receiving a lot of praise from players who enjoy focusing on capturing zones.
Until October 16, the beta of CoD: MW3 ran, offering an insight into 7 different multiplayer modes. There were also familiar modes that really put objective players to the test: Domination, Hardpoint, and Ground War.
In the modes, it’s about capturing specific zones and defending them from opponents. And probably every Call of Duty player knows this when entering such a match: teammates who like to farm kills but somehow don’t want to engage much with the zone.
A field equipment item from the beta is now especially praised by players for whom flags and zones in matches represent the most important objectives.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 World Premiere First Level Trailer – Opening Night Live 2023
New field equipment captures zones and hacks devices
What kind of gadget is this? The gadget is the field equipment A.C.S. (Automated Computer Spike). This helpful item looks like a flat, portable computer and has the function of slowly capturing zones and hacking enemy devices nearby (via callofduty.com).
This allows players in CoD: MW3 to focus on taking a better position and defending areas while their little helper lies in the zone.
In a post on Reddit, the user “eyeriis” writes on October 16 that the A.C.S. field equipment is “the best thing added to CoD.”
“eyeriis” writes in the post:
For someone who is a total objective player in CoD, the A.C.S. is so damn helpful when you are actually trying to win the game.
Especially in Hardpoint, which is my favorite mode, it helped a lot to throw the A.C.S. to defend the point for a few seconds when I know I’m going to die.
“A.C.S is my new buddy”
This is what other players say: Some of the community agrees with “eyeriis”, while others are less impressed. “KEE_Wii” agrees: “I keep finding myself defending the point alone while 90% of the team just runs around and shoots. With A.C.S. I have a real chance to win.”
“Wishful_cynic” calls the A.C.S. “his new buddy.” Another user comments: “Designed for solo objective players. It’s like having the option to call in a reliable teammate for capturing the zone while you defend it yourself.”
The user “Sqweeg” adds that he hopes the field equipment will still be available upon full release. It is also very useful in the mode “Ground War.” “If you are alone on the flag, this upgrade speeds up the capture as if we were 5 […]. It helped me capture some flags all by myself.”
The user “Radeni” writes in the comment that the upgrade still needs to be improved and says: “Half the time it doesn’t work.” Another user finds the A.C.S. useless, as it seems to be destroyed in a few seconds after being placed.
“slayer-x” considers the field equipment to be particularly helpful for solo players. It is “not really overpowered, as it does not last long and can be easily destroyed.” However, it could become a problem “when playing against a group or multiple people using it.”
What do you think of the A.C.S. field equipment? Will you use it? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments.
While you still have to wait for the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, you can participate in the Halloween event in the meantime. There you can also fight against the Butcher from Diablo 4:
In line with the end of Dragonflight, World of Warcraft is trying to keep its players engaged for a long time. Blizzard would like to be paid for 12 months in advance.
All signs indicate that World of Warcraft Dragonflight is “finished” with the next major content patch. While it is likely that smaller patches with story and quests will still be added, new areas or a new raid can probably not be expected after the release of Patch 10.2 Guardians of Dreams.
It seems almost a little amusing that WoW wants to seduce you into a 12-month subscription at exactly this time. A first leak had revealed the offer, which comes across as strikingly appropriate.
What was discovered? An offer for the WoW shop was already displayed in the mobile Battle.net app, which is not yet live. It indicates that Blizzard will soon offer a “12-month subscription” again, which aims to bind you to World of Warcraft for a whole 360 days.
This offer was already visible in the mobile app. (Image source: wowhead)
The graphic clearly shows 4 mounts:
A dragon for “Wrath of the Lich King Classic”
A radiant chest in Classic – unknown what this is
An oversized Murloc for Dragonflight
The already known fish mount from the last 6-month subscription
A large, purple owl bear mount from Patch 10.2
A yet unknown mount (presumably a dragon) that is apparently adorned with leaves and branches
What will happen in the 12 months? The next 12 months are likely to be a bit quieter in World of Warcraft – for the most part. While Patch 10.2 is still pending and thus a significant content update with a new raid and new area, thereafter there will probably only be smaller patches. A “Season 4” is likely, where all raids of Dragonflight will become relevant again and the most popular dungeons will return once more.
Is the offer worth it? Here, as so often, the answer is “It depends”. If you already know that you will have a WoW subscription for the next 12 months, then the offer is generally quite good and the mounts are a nice bonus. However, if you usually take a break before the next expansion, you should think twice about the offer.
So far, however, no price is known – and since the offer includes mounts from the next patch, it will probably go live only with the launch of 10.2 Guardians of Dreams.

Dark Matter (engl. Dark Matter) is a new material that you can earn in New World. You need it for the artifacts, but also for reforging and upgrading equipment. We at MeinMMO reveal where you can get Dark Matter and how it all works.
How do you get Dark Matter? Basically, you get it through various methods that offer a lot of variety:
The reward paths in PvP offer Dark Matter in the third tier or occasionally in the second tier.
You can also visit the Outpost Rush mode, where the material is part of the end reward (you get more if you win).
Portal events reward it.
In dungeons you can obtain Dark Matter as an end reward in the mutations.
Elite chests in endgame areas have it in their loot table.
When reclaiming equipment, you have a chance to get 0-2 Dark Matter.
So it is up to you whether you want to earn Dark Matter in PvE or PvP, whether you prefer exploring dungeons and raids, or completing chest or portal runs with larger groups of players.
What do I need Dark Matter for? Mainly for crafting and for the best endgame equipment. Because the new material allows you to make special adjustments to the gear or even upgrade items to level 700.
Start video
New World – What has changed since the release?
Dark Matter is important for artifacts and named items
What do I need Dark Matter for with artifacts? If you have found one of the new artifacts, you need to complete some quests first to unlock its full potential. One of these quests always wants you to visit the gypsum oven and make an enhancement there.
This costs 500 Dark Matter and 5 gypsum orbs, as well as some more specific items depending on the object. Once you have made the enhancement, you will unlock the fifth perk of the artifact. You can even freely choose this, as you can use a material with the desired effect.
By the way, you can reforge this perk at any time. However, you will again need the materials mentioned above, and thus more Dark Matter.
What else can I do with it? Another useful feature is upgrading named items. In the game, there are various equipment items that have their own name, such as the rapier Knightslayer or the ring Privateer’s Heirloom.
Actually, these items only have an item level of 650, but can be upgraded to level 700 with the help of 250 Dark Matter, a gypsum orb, and other materials, and can also be directly converted into a legendary item.
With this, you unlock another perk here that you can determine yourself with the appropriate material.
You can tell whether your item is named in-game by the corresponding inscription:
Lastly, they can be used for crafting legendary gypsum casts. However, you can only get items with an armor value of a maximum of 625 from this. Currently, it is not really worth it to craft these.

In Baldur’s Gate 3 a photo mode is in planning. Players are already making plans on how to best utilize this new feature. MeinMMO reveals to you what it is all about.
This epic role-playing game enchants its players with breathtaking graphics and charismatic companions, unique characters, and NPCs that are pleasing to the eye.
It is hardly surprising that many of us have already filled our hard drives with a collection of screenshots of these pretty faces. But hold on tight, as the joy will be even greater, as Larian Studios has revealed. Baldur’s Gate 3 will soon fulfill a long-held wish of the players – a photo mode.

Baldur’s Gate 3 announces photo mode and excites players
On social media, there was an insightful tweet on X, which highlighted the strong desire of players for a photo mode for Baldur’s Gate 3. In response to the community’s wish, Michael Douse, the publishing director of Larian Studios, stated that such a mode is already on their list of planned features.
The anticipation of the players for this new feature is clearly palpable. Already on Reddit, some of them eagerly made plans on how to capture the world of Baldur’s Gate 3 with impressive photos.
User MCleartist expressed his enthusiasm by writing: Finally, I can fill my 12 TB HDD with Astarion’s face.
MARZmalade, on the other hand, has concrete plans and enthusiastically announces: “I will buy a 5-terabyte external hard drive just for Astarion OnlyFangs pictures.” Astarion is a favorite among many players.
With OnlyFangs, the player refers to a spicy video of Astarion that Larian Studios has published on their YouTube channel. Here you can watch the video:

In EA FC 24, the best players compete not only against each other in the Weekend League but also in Division Rivals. In an exciting match in the Rivals mode, a football star from FC Liverpool faced off against a German FIFA World Champion.
Which players faced each other? In the aforementioned match, Liverpool striker Diogo Jota and FIFA World Champion of 2022 Umut “RBLZ_Umut” Gültekin went head-to-head. The German FC 24 pro only realized after a few minutes of play that he was playing against the real Diogo Jota.
You can see the surprising reaction of the pro player if you watch the first minute of the video.

Liverpool pro leads twice, ultimately loses narrowly
How did the match go? In the video, you can see how eSports player Umut initially shows visible excitement about the team, but even more about the name of his opponent. In his live chat, he jokes that he wouldn’t be able to upload the match to Youtube in case of a loss.
Diogo Jota is not an unknown figure in the FIFA scene; his account is known among the pros. In fact, he founded his own eSports team earlier this year (via X.com).
Ironically, the Liverpool pro scored the first goal of the match after just a few minutes of play. But the World Champion didn’t let that slide for long.
In a fast-paced first half, Umut initially turned the game around after a quarter of an hour, only to go into halftime trailing after two more goals from Jota.
After halftime, the Portuguese national player had a big chance to decide the match, but he missed it. In true World Champion fashion, Umut fought his way back into the game and led 4-3 with 20 minutes remaining.
The eSports player managed to keep his narrow lead, which he himself deemed “somewhat lucky” over time, even allowing himself a missed penalty in stoppage time. You can also watch the highlights of the entire match in the video linked at the beginning.
The close match clearly demonstrated that Diogo Jota’s qualities are not only of a very high level on the football field.
What final words did FIFA pro Umut have for his opponent and what awaits the Portuguese for his strong performances in EA FC 24? You can read below.
By the way, Jota also has a very decent card in Ultimate Team with an 85 rating. He even has a playstyle that belongs to the most important playstyles in EA FC 24.
From pro to pro: “One day you will be World Champion.”
How did the FIFA World Champion assess the performance of the football pro? Umut was visibly relieved about the narrow victory. He enthusiastically praised the performance of his opponent in a short speech immediately after the match:
“You are a very good player, my friend. Keep it up. One day you will be World Champion. You are the best player I have ever played against” (via youtube.com). To reinforce his praise, he analyzed an exemplary game scene in which Jota made the World Champion look really old.
What’s next for the Liverpool star? Diogo Jota could continue his success story in EA FC 24 on October 21 and 22, as the regionals, i.e. the regional qualification tournaments for the FC Pro Open Global Qualifier, take place on those days. An overview of the competition’s schedule can be found on this EA Sports page.
Jota qualified for the regionals with a strong rank of 81 in the EU West region. However, it is unlikely that the Portuguese will be able to participate in this competition.
For him and FC Liverpool, the derby against their neighbors FC Everton is on October 21. The Portuguese will likely have to focus fully on real football during this time.
However, we will keep you informed if an opportunity arises for Jota to continue to make waves in eSports.
Meanwhile, Leipzig pro Umut should be happy to be able to play against different opponents in Division Rivals. Why that is not always the case, you can read in this article.

The wait of the fans has apparently paid off. The hellish series with dark humor, “Hazbin Hotel”, has a release date.
From time to time, a game or series is announced, shows initial material, and then disappears into oblivion. When the first episode of “Hazbin Hotel” was released for free on YouTube almost 3 years ago, the hype was significant. Many were thrilled by the world and characters. Even greater was the joy when it was announced that a whole series would follow after the pilot episode.
But time passed. Rough release dates were canceled multiple times, and doubts arose again and again about whether work was still being done on it. But the wait of the fans has paid off – because starting January 2024, Hazbin Hotel will be available on Amazon Prime.
Start video
Hazbin Hotel – The Hellish Series Starts on Amazon
What is Hazbin Hotel about? The hell is overcrowded. Once a year, the great cleansing takes place, during which angels descend from heaven and wreak havoc among the damned to curb the overpopulation of hell.
Charlie Morningstar, the princess of hell, believes this approach is wrong. She dreams of opening a “Happy Hotel” where the residents of hell can be “rehabilitated.” They are to be freed from their sins, repent, and live a decent life in the future. At “Check Out,” they are to be received into heaven, as is her wish.
Charlie’s “Anti-Disney Princess” song in the first episode won the fans over.
When Charlie presents her idea, she is mocked by all of hell. Nevertheless, she holds on to her dream and wants the hotel to be a success. She is supported by her friend Vaggie, while the porn actor “Angel Dust” is to become her first successful “customer” – even though he just sought a place to stay for the night.
Unexpected help comes to Charlie from the mysterious “Radio Demon” Alastor, one of the most powerful and influential residents of hell. However, he is more interested in seeing the customers fail and deriving his own pleasure from it.
The pilot episode was a huge success back then. The English version alone has been watched by over 90 million viewers and has received over 98% “thumbs up.” You can watch it for free here:

How extensive the series will be and how long the individual episodes are is still unclear.
Apparently, Amazon is so convinced of the project that a second season was announced even before the first one is online.
Anyone who enjoys crude humor, bizarre characters, and plenty of risqué jokes in a hellish setting should take a look at Hazbin Hotel.
If you’re now in the mood for some hellish entertainment, check out the spin-off series Helluva Boss. In the series, which you can watch for free on YouTube, it’s about a company of hellish hitmen and their professional (and inter-demon) problems. The series reveals much about the universe and introduces some characters that will surely also appear in Hazbin Hotel.
The second season of Diablo 4 has started. Players who have been there since the early hours of the season are sharing their first impressions.
Diablo 4 has faced a lot of criticism in the past, but with the launch of Season 2, there is hope that this critical mood in the community could finally change.
However, the start of the second season on October 17 was not completely smooth, and the developers had to deal with difficulties that led to the launch being delayed by two hours.
The delay of the season start caused some unrest among players, but when the servers were finally brought up, many players expressed positive opinions about the changes in Diablo 4 – even though the game still struggles with many bugs.
Players are excited about the changes
What do players say about the new season? Players are sharing their opinions on Diablo 4 Season 2 and seem largely pleasantly surprised by the latest developments in the game.
In particular, the revamped mount mechanics received a lot of praise, and it seems that these changes have largely met players’ expectations.
A player named ethan1203 shares his positive impressions on Reddit and emphasizes:
I feel like I’m flying over the map. What I like most now is the feeling when you jump into an event with the descent attack from the horse. I haven’t gotten stuck on a single pebble or branch tonight, and the Barrier Break-mechanic works great and looks epic. […]
Further players are also excited about the new changes in Diablo 4 and share their opinions on Reddit. Here are some of your comments summarized:
A player named Maddstaxx sums up his enthusiasm: 10/10 patch. Everything in Season 2 feels great. I didn’t expect it to be this good.
Gabby_Stx agrees and highlights: “I made a ton of gold through Whispers, and experience points and gear come here smoothly. Good job, Blizzard!”
Gabby_Stx also emphasizes bugs, yet still has a lot of fun: Aside from the bugs (which I’m sure will be fixed soon), Season 2 hasn’t brought anything except that it has made me want to play even more. I’m really hopeful for the future of Diablo 4.
Pleasestoplyiiing refers to the mount change (via Reddit): Another cool change is that your horse now pushes enemies – I don’t know if that’s only when sprinting, but it’s super satisfying.
MyGoodApollo emphasizes how much broader the season’s content is:
What stands out to me the most is that the season’s content is much broader. There is so much more to do: leveling up the vampire powers, an additional hell flood, managing the pacts on the items so you can equip the powers you need. There is real gameplay here and not just the ability to collect additional gems by killing monsters twice.
Diablo 4 presents new Season 2, coming this fall – Blood & Vampires
Amid positive voices, the game is struggling with bugs
Many are excited about the innovations and improvements that this season has brought. However, the game is also struggling with bugs. Players have reported various bugs and crash issues.
Player Rehevkor reports on Reddit that he is very frequently encountering crashes when trying to open the map in Diablo 4 – which makes the gaming experience for him frustrating and completely unplayable.
MuzzaOCE writes (via Reddit) that the game frequently freezes, stutters, and crashes. This happens when he visits instances or towns.
Blizzard has already implemented a hotfix to address issues with the battle pass and season journey (via X). It is expected that the further bugs and issues will also be resolved soon.
The player community seems to be more optimistic and confident about Diablo 4 than ever before, and the future of the game looks promising. It remains to be seen how Blizzard will respond to player feedback and how the game will continue to evolve.
Have you started with Season 2 yet? How have your experiences been so far? Do you share the enthusiasm or have you had negative experiences so far? Are you also struggling with bugs? Feel free to let us know in the comments.
In League of Legends, Brand is currently a classic poke support. Many find it annoying to play against him, but in the current meta, he is quite solid. Not too strong, but also not too weak. Currently, buffs are available for him on the test server that will make him a true jungle monster.
What buffs does Brand get on the live server?
Base attack speed from 0.625 to 0.681
Attack speed growth from 1.36% to 2%
The passive dot damage to monsters increases from 120% to 360%
His passive burns every enemy hit by his abilities for 4 seconds with magical damage. With the buffs against jungle monsters, he cleans the jungle incredibly quickly and has an extremely high speed in the early game.
Bugs have also made life difficult for jungle players:
League of Legends Briar – Animated Video about the new Jungler
On Twitter, user Shapeshift posted his full clear with Brand in the jungle. He manages it in 2:56 minutes. Especially his AOE clear through the combination of his W and passive makes him so fast. Once he reaches level 3 and can activate the explosion of his passive ability, his clear is optimized.
Thus, he is almost as fast as his mage colleague Karthus with 2:55 minutes. You can see the whole clip here:

Although Brand is not as mobile as other junglers and only has his stun through the Q as a good gank option, a very good clear could still make him very effective in the jungle, as he has level and gold advantages. Moreover, he is also always useful in team fights due to his ultimate.
But whether or how these buffs ultimately come to the live server remains to be seen. The next patch is expected to be released on October 25, 2023.
In the past, Riot has experimented with making unusual champions jungle viable. Recently, Gwen received such buffs, but Darius has also received similar buffs for his bleeds.
A remarkable glitch in Destiny 2 has recently caused a stir, turning the gameplay on its head. The newly discovered bug allows Guardians to freeze time, freezing movable objects in the game world.
Update from 11/07/2023: With the patch for update 7.2.5.3, Bungie has ensured that players can no longer use this effect in the game.
What is the time-stop glitch? The curious effect is a new glitch in Destiny 2, which has become known through the players’ curiosity. The unusual bug can be used to temporarily stop time, or rather the movement in the game world.
The glitch itself is surprisingly simple but has significant impacts on Destiny 2’s gameplay.
With it, rotating objects, both on PvP maps and in the open world, can be stopped for a certain period.
Conveyor belts in Gambit can also be stopped to gain a tactical advantage against intruders.
But automatic spawn doors, from which enemies normally come, can also be sealed, preventing anyone from passing through.
The “time-stop glitch” is therefore not just an unusual effect, but it could quickly entice players to simplify the endgame as well.
This makes it almost as creepy as the new colors of the Halloween weapons in Destiny 2:
Start video
Destiny 2 celebrates the Festival of the Lost in 2023 with creepy bug looks
Guardians now master light and time
Here’s how to stop time: More and more Guardians are already using the time-stop effect. This is partly because it doesn’t take much to execute it. Only one thing is absolutely necessary: You need a Void Warlock to stop time, or rather, to stop objects.
Equip the magnetic grenade and the Void aspect “Chaos Accelerant”.
The aspect allows you to overload the grenade. Once thrown at a moving object that is susceptible to the effect, it stops.
How it all looks in the game is demonstrated by Lucky10P in this video:

Players have already begun experimenting with many things in the game using the time-stop glitch and have found that there are also movable objects that cannot be stopped. This includes, for example, the boat in the strike “The Light Blade”.
Furthermore, the time-stop glitch can easily ruin things. Just throwing the grenade into the wrong corner is enough, and you can get trapped yourself. Or your own team can get stuck in an activity because mechanisms no longer move or doors and gates, which you need to pass through, do not open anymore.
It is therefore better to use the glitch just for fun in the open world, even if the bug can bring a significant advantage in some PvE and PvP activities.
That’s why the fun will probably end soon: The time-stop glitch in Destiny 2 is undoubtedly fascinating, but Bungie, the developer of Destiny 2, has quickly responded to such bugs in the past and released patches to fix them.
So it remains to be seen how long the bug will stay in the game now that it is becoming more widely known.
Did you already know about this curious bug? And how critically do you assess the possibilities with it, that the Warlock can even stop time with his Void powers? Feel free to tell us in the comments.
Next Wednesday, EA FC 24 has the TOTW 5 (Team of the Week) planned. At MeinMMO, you will learn which players could be part of the new Team of the Week.Haaland and Mbappé have good chances.
What is the Team of the Week? Every week, EA puts together a new TOTW. This team consists of 23 players who stood out with strong performances over the past weekend in football.
As a reward, they receive a place in the Team of the Week and improved Inform cards, which can be found in packs for one week. Since there was an international break last weekend, the predictions are based on the players’ performances with their respective national teams.
These are TOTW Predictions: In the TOTW Predictions, we present forecasts for the new TOTW from the community. The players’ performances are analyzed, and predictions are made.
However, it is important to note that the predictions do not guarantee the final Team of the Week 5.
These stars could make it: Last weekend, 3 absolute superstar forwards scored for their national teams. But will they also make it into the new TOTW?
Cristiano Ronaldo contributed 2 goals to the 3:2 final score in the match between Portugal and Slovakia and thus could earn his first TOTW card in FC 24.
Kylian Mbappé had an outstanding game against the Netherlands, scoring both goals in the 2:1 victory. However, a TOTW card seems unlikely as Mbappé is currently found in the Trailblazers Team 1. And unless EA has changed the TOTW rules, it should also not be possible this year to have two special cards at the same time.
Erling Haaland played strongly against Cyprus, scoring 2 goals. Whether he will receive an Inform card for this, we will find out on Wednesday.

The Sorceress is one of the most popular classes in Diablo 4. With our Blizzard build, you can easily get through Nightmare dungeons, take down bosses in seconds, and keep enemies pinned down with strong CC while protecting yourself.
Update, 10/18: The guide has been updated and adjusted for Season 2.
What kind of build is this? The build relies on Blizzard and barriers – and it is essentially a tank build. The Frost Sorceress builds on the fact that she can stand in front of enemies while they hit her or helplessly watch as they freeze to death.
For the build to work, you absolutely need the legendary aspect Glacial Aspect, which you can only find. It is not in the Codex.
We are currently recording endgame gameplay. An example of the build at earlier levels can be seen here:

Blizzard build for the Sorceress – What you need
You need these skills:
Core
Frostbolt 1/5 with Improved and Flickering Frostbolt
Firebolt 1/5
Core
Devastation 3/3
Defensive
Teleportation 1/5 with Improved and Shimmering Teleportation
Icy Armor 1/5 with Improved Icy Armor
Frost Nova 5/5 with Improved and Mystical Frost Nova
Glass Cannon 3/3
Elemental Harmony 1/3
Summoning

Blizzard 1/5 with Improved Blizzard and Mage’s Blizzard
Ultimate
Deep Freeze with Supreme and Superior Deep Freeze
Permafrost 3/3
Hoarfrost 3/3
Icy Touch 3/3
Central Passives
Shard
Depending on your preferences, you can leave out passive effects like Devastation and Mana Shield in favor of increasing Frostbolt to 5/5. However, during testing, the difference was hardly noticeable.
As a special class mechanic, the Sorceress has the ability to generate passive effects from her spells. You utilize here the effects of Firebolt and Frostbolt.
Aspect of Shadows – Downfall of the Champion, Dry Steppes
Snowwatching Aspect – Stinking Mausoleum, Hawezar
Since you want to use main and off-hand as weapons, the Glacial Aspect must be applied to the neck piece. Here, it has +50% effectiveness and this aspect is crucial for your damage. Weapon damage can largely be ignored, as long as the weapon is at least above level 725.
As affixes, you mainly need damage against vulnerable targets, critical hit chance, and hit damage, as well as damage and intelligence. On the perfect neck piece, you want +ranks for Devouring Firestorm. Additionally, damage against chilled enemies, damage against burning enemies, resource regeneration, and reduction of mana costs are also useful.
alternatively: Topazes in armor, especially interesting for HC players
When it comes to Paragon boards and glyphs, it’s best to use:
Starting board with Elementalist
Ice Strike with Frostbite (also activates the legendary node here)
Ice Cold Fate with Tactician
Burning Instinct with Control
Scorching Heat with Profiteering
Uninterrupted Connection with Flame-eater
You may have to change the glyphs multiple times while leveling. Make sure to activate them with the surrounding nodes. Otherwise, nodes with damage against vulnerable and burning enemies are especially attractive to you. You can read more about the system in our guide to Paragon and glyphs.
Pro
Massive CC
“Tank” build that is hard to kill
Melts bosses away
Perfect for solo and group play
Many aspects easy to farm
Contra
Requires specific aspects to deal damage
Positioning is important
More suited for advanced players
Extremely vulnerable against mobile enemies
Blizzard build for the Sorceress – Gameplay and Tips
Here’s how to play the build: The playstyle builds on stacking as many casts of Blizzard as possible and pinning enemies down there. They should become vulnerable, which further increases your damage with various multipliers, and then die.
It’s important to let enemies burn. This works through the passive effect of Firebolt with direct damage. However, Blizzard does not deal any direct damage, which is why you need to rely on Teleport, Frostbolt, or Deep Freeze:
cast Blizzard into a group of enemies or multiple times on a boss
Teleport to the enemies to ignite them
activate Ice Armor immediately to protect yourself
make enemies vulnerable with Frost Nova
cast additional Blizzards to hit all enemies on screen
attack with Frostbolt to ignite enemies and make them vulnerable
if in doubt: use Deep Freeze to let enemies burn and protect yourself
Your damage comes primarily from the aspect that causes Blizzard to spawn ice shards. Deep Freeze additionally enhances the area effect and lets all enemies burn and freeze, granting a chance to make them vulnerable even if they are far away.
Ideally, enemies shouldn’t be able to move at all or only very slowly while you grind them down with your Blizzards. You are particularly strong against bosses:
Your frost abilities slowly fill the boss’s stun bar. Save Ice Armor and Deep Freeze especially for this moment. Just before stunning, you should cast as many Blizzards on the boss as possible, then stun him with Frost Nova and make him vulnerable, and with the Ice Armor/Deep Freeze combo, kill him in a matter of seconds. Frostbolt will take care of the rest in case of doubt.
As is the case with any current Sorceress build, you may encounter greater problems starting at Nightmare level 80 than with other classes. From here on, you may have to tinker a bit and see what suits you.
If you prefer to see everything burn, you can find here a Fire wall build:
The necromancer has many talents in Diablo 4 that make him powerful, but one combination creates an unending stinky show. We show you the Infimist build for the Necro, what you need to pay attention to, and how with this build you can even slaughter everything solo.
Update, 18.10: The guide has been adjusted and updated for Season 2.
What kind of build is this? The Infimist Necro build primarily focuses on generating corpses. Enemies are then bound with corpse vines and transformed into corpse farts with corpse explosion. Additionally, you can transform into a shredding cloud with Blood Fog and Bone Storm that destroys everything around you.
This is how you play the build: Once you find a group of enemies, use Aging on them. Now comes the Blood Fog into play. You move through the masses and generate corpses. Now you apply Corpse Vines and bind your enemies at a point where there are many corpses. You then use Aging again and transform back into Blood Fog. After that, you activate Corpse Explosion, followed by Bone Storm.
If you are in a boss fight, use your Bloody Harvest to generate corpses, or it could look bad for you.

Hunters are at the top of the tier list in Diablo 4. MeinMMO presents you with the currently best build for hunters, shows you the skill setup, what legendaries you need, and how to play the build.
Update, 18.10: The guide has been updated for season 2 and refreshed with all important information.
What kind of build is this? Hunters are currently strongest when played in melee – meaning with daggers or swords, and not with bows. This build fully relies on Twisting Blades, which impale opponents.
Currently, this build is considered the build for hunters, ranks among the best builds in the tier list of Diablo 4, and generally outperforms most other classes in terms of speed and strength. However, you need a bit of know-how about the class.
the build originally comes from the expert team at maxroll.gg (in English)
Pro
works even without uniques
high damage against everything
very mobile
feels powerful
Contra
difficulties with energy, especially in the early stages
requires good timing
complex path in the paragon
What makes the build special: You continuously inflict vulnerability on opponents through your attacks, one of the two most important mechanics for every class. This makes you strong both solo and as a supporter for others in a group.
Thanks to your mobility, you can easily dodge almost any danger, preventing you from taking too much damage “face tanking” – that is, taking damage directly.
We tried the build already in beta. Today it has been perfected. You can see gameplay here:

When should I break down or sell items in Diablo 4?
As affixes on the items, you should focus on damage to vulnerable targets, damage from core abilities, and agility. At higher levels, you also need a lot of armor, the strongest defensive stat. You will socket the following gems:
You will mainly find glyphs in Nightmare Dungeons, where you can also level them up. More information can be found in our overview of the endgame content of Diablo 4. Tips for leveling as a rogue can be found here:
Twisting Blades Build for Hunters – Gameplay and Tips
This is how to play the build: The core gameplay of the build relies on you drilling your twisting blades into a foe and then bringing as many opponents as possible between them and you:
use twisting blades on an opponent, preferably a tough one
make opponents vulnerable with the poison trap to trigger more multipliers
move as far as possible with darting and shadow step and ensure opponents stand between the first enemy and you
the returning blades kill everything in their path and around you afterwards if anything is still standing
against single opponents and bosses, you just spam twisting blades
you can apply infusions against stronger opponents to deal more damage
In relation to builds like the Blizzard Sorceress, you have very few control effects on opponents, so you rely on your mobility to avoid damage. Your self-healing is also significantly lower compared to the Whirlwind Barbarian’s. Armor is much more important for you than for other classes.
Generally, try to avoid as much damage as possible and take advantage of the fact that you will be constantly jumping around anyway. You are a skilled assassin, not a brutal brawler. Diablo 4 Guides: All tips, tricks, and builds in the overview

The MMORPG Chronicles of Elyria excited fans with the idea that their characters could rule large kingdoms and even age. Through Kickstarter and crowdfunding, a lot of money was raised. However, the game is now dead, and we summarize the story once again.
What made the game so interesting? On June 1, 2016, Chronicles of Elyria launched a campaign on Kickstarter. The goal was to raise $900,000 to develop a prototype of the MMORPG. Within 30 days, fans donated more than $1.36 million because they were so fascinated by the idea.
It was supposed to be the first MMORPG where your character would age and eventually even die. This was intended to take about a year in real life, with each death reducing life expectancy by a few days. To preserve some of the progress and maintain the kingdom, players were supposed to have an heir.
The game promised limited resources, non-repeatable quests, and a fully destructible environment. The character would also never go offline and could simply leave the world. Those who ventured into the wilderness could be killed by others. In cities, however, one was safe, and with the help of AI, the character was supposed to behave naturally and interact with NPCs.
The combat system promised a lot of action – with dodges, blocking, and a stamina system that would prevent spamming skills. The general motto was: Skill is more important than equipment.
What was promised back then and what it was supposed to look like can be seen in this 2016 video:

What is Chronicles of Elyria – Pre-Alpha
The list of innovations was long and sounded exciting. But a playable version was never released. An engine change and many problems finding investors and publishers were said to be the issues.
According to the official website, the game raised over $7.9 million in crowdfunding.
Many updates at the beginning, but there were problems with the engine
How did the development go? At the beginning, there was a feeling that the head Jeromy Walsh and his team had a clear idea of their MMORPG. There were regular blog posts with new information and even smaller videos.
Walsh also raved about SpatialOS, a wonder technology that was supposed to allow for the creation of huge worlds with simple means. The company behind it was worth over $2 billion at one point. Some MMOs relied on the engine, but none had real success. In the meantime, the developer Improbable no longer relies on it and is instead focusing on the Metaverse.
For Chronicles of Elyria, this meant an engine change in January 2018 – away from SpatialOS to the Soulborn Engine, which they developed themselves. However, this took time. The first alpha was actually supposed to start just a few months later, allowing Kickstarter backers to participate.
Here you can find the few official screenshots that existed of the game:
The date for Alpha 1 was therefore not met. Otherwise, support for the game began to dwindle.
Although they announced during the Kickstarter campaign that they wanted to raise more money through crowdfunding on their own website afterwards, the amounts requested became increasingly absurd.
What happened in 2020? In the following months, there were no major updates. By then, Chronicles of Elyria was already two years behind the actual schedule.
On March 6, 2020, gameplay from the pre-alpha was shown out of nowhere. And from then on, things went downhill. The content shown had nothing to do with the original graphics and the promised gameplay.
What was seen was a character running through a very simply designed world. One could even play it briefly – if they had spent a lot of money beforehand.
Some comments mocked: It could be developed within a few days or weeks. Why did it take almost four years?
Another user wrote: “I thought this was supposed to be an MMORPG? It reminds me more of Donkey Kong 64 on the Nintendo 64.”
For many, it was now clear: Chronicles of Elyria is a scam and will never appear as originally promised.
A few days later, Walsh spoke out again and explained that no publisher could be found for the ambitious MMORPG. He himself would finish the project with volunteer staff.
Later it was said that they were working on a strategy game for the time being. Kingdoms of Elyria would be easier to implement and could use a lot of the resources originally allocated to the MMORPG. Through this, they wanted to finance the studio and eventually release Chronicles of Elyria.
Jeromy Walsh is, however, not the only head to have sunk an MMORPG:
A significant portion went towards employee salaries. Here alone, $3.5 million is recorded. With 17 employees, that averages to a salary of $68,000 per person per year. He himself paid himself $96,000 and was usually, though not always, the highest-paid person in the studio.
An intact website and regular updates, although there is no progress
Where does the studio stand today? Soulbound Studios and the website for Chronicles of Elyria still exist today. There, you can still read about the vision of the “next-gen MMORPG,” even though no work is currently being done on it.
Walsh still posts a monthly update about the status of the strategy game in the accompanying blog. However, according to a new interview from October 2023, the game will not have multiplayer for the time being. This does not fit with the original vision that someday Chronicles of Elyria will be worked on again.
The players’ lawsuit was dismissed by the court, by the way.
Jeromy Walsh is, however, not the only head to have sunk an MMORPG:
The Barbarian in Diablo 4 can annihilate its enemies with both melee weapons and a double swing. We show you a double swing build for Season 2 that will help you dominate your opponents.
Update, October 18: The build is up to date and ready to be used in Season 2. The appropriate vampire skills have been added.
What kind of build is this? This build revolves around the core ability “Double Swing”. You cut through your enemies and thus generate rage continuously. A perfect build if you want to send a lot of enemies to the afterlife at once or defeat bosses.
This build is from icy-veins.com by content creator AaronActionRPG.
This is how you play the build: In this build, it is important to stun your enemies first before giving them the rest with your Double Swing. For these cases, you have a wide arsenal of skills that help you:
Jump Strike for distant targets
Stomp for many enemies nearby
Charge for enemies near walls
Iron Maelstrom for large groups
Afterwards, you attack your enemies with Double Swing and benefit from your endless rage. You repeat this rotation until no enemies are left.

The Quinfall is a new indie MMORPG that sounds really good in its presentation. Basically, it wants to fulfill the dreams of all types of players – whether PvE, role-playing, or PvP. The first gameplay trailer also looked really good. New information about the different types of weapons has now been shared.
What kind of game is this? The Quinfall is a Buy2Play MMORPG and promises a perfect mix of theme park and sandbox:
Players will be able to own their own taverns or shops, which promotes the role-playing aspect.
In the open game world, quests, lots of content to explore, and boss fights for up to 50 players await you.
PvE fans can look forward to dungeons and raids.
For PvP fans, there will be huge battles for fortresses on every server.
Players will be able to breed mounts and decorate a house with over 1,000 different decorations.
There are supposed to be separate PvE and PvP servers, allowing people to experience or consciously avoid PvP in the open world. The cool thing is that you can switch between these servers at any time. However, on a PvP server, there are smaller bonuses, including more XP and faster crafting experience.
What has been revealed about the weapons? The Quinfall forgoes fixed classes, just like New World, Albion Online, or the upcoming Throne and Liberty. Instead, there will be 9 weapons that define their play style. Each weapon has two different “sub-classes” from which you can choose.
7 of these weapons have now been presented in detail:
As a marksman, you have the choice of the hunter with animal companions or the critical archer.
With sword and shield, you can take on the role of the tank as a guardian or the role of the damage dealer as a sword master.
With the great sword, you can either execute slow but strong single attacks or use huge AoE effects as a devastator.
The life staff allows you to play as a healer or a supporter.
With the crossbow, you can act secretly as a sniper or take down enemies in rapid fire.
The regular staff offers the sub-classes frost mage for controlling enemies and fire mage for dealing lots of damage.
The lancer (spear bearer) has only one subclass, the valkyrie, as its only weapon. It is supposed to provide both offensive and supportive abilities.
Currently, information about the dagger and the battle axe is still missing, which we will include as soon as it has been released.
Is there a weapon switch? There is currently no concrete statement about a weapon switch. However, the posts on Twitter/X indicate that the respective weapon is suitable for an offensive, healer, or mixed build. This at least suggests that you are not necessarily bound to one weapon.
What else do we know about the game? From the FAQ, we know that The Quinfall is supposed to receive a German localization. Other languages are English, French, and Turkish, which makes sense since the studio is located in Istanbul.
The game’s servers are expected to accommodate around 12,000 people, and it is noted that you are not fixed to one server. Additionally, there should be no Pay2Win in the game.
When will The Quinfall be released? The start of the closed beta is currently planned for late 2023. This is to take place directly on Steam. There is no specific release date yet.
What do you think of The Quinfall? Does this MMORPG appeal to you? Or does it all sound too ambitious?
Another MMORPG that also managed to impress with its trailer is Chrono Odyssey:
The actor Dougray Scott had the chance to land 3 of the biggest movie roles, but in all three he made unfortunate decisions or was unlucky that Tom Cruise was against him.
Who is Dougray Scott?
British actor
He acted in movies such as Mission: Impossible 2, Dark Water, and Enigma – The Secret
Most recently, he was seen in the Batwoman series
However, he probably would have had a much bigger career if he had gotten the roles of Wolverine, Aragorn, or James Bond, but he had incredible bad luck. This is reminiscent of Will Smith’s story:
He almost became Wolverine, but Tom Cruise was against it
Long before the MCU, which today dominates the cinematic landscape, there were superhero pioneers. This included Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy and the X-Men films, which started the series in 2000.
When thinking of these films, for many the first actor that comes to mind is Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. However, Dougray Scott was actually in talks to play this role. And he wanted to as well. At the time of filming, he was also playing the villain in Mission Impossible 2, but both he and the production company had no objections to filming as Wolverine concurrently.
However, Hollywood icon Tom Cruise was against it. He wanted Scott to finish Mission Impossible first and didn’t want him to be allowed to work on another production at the same time. As a producer and simply as Tom Cruise, he had such power, and Dougray Scott complied.
Ultimately, Hugh Jackman got the iconic role and is still known for it today. In the next Deadpool movie, he will once again portray Wolverine:
But that was not the only unfortunate decision in his career. He also declined the role of Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings trilogy because the filming would have taken too long. But not only Aragorn and Wolverine escaped him, also James Bond.
According to the Daily Record, Dougray Scott was even considered for the role of James Bond after Pierce Brosnan, but ultimately he lost this role to Daniel Craig, who at that time was still a relatively unknown actor internationally.
