„I am the Sidekick“ – Twitch streamer annagazanis tells what it is like when the girlfriend suddenly becomes famous

Sarah 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

In the spotlight of the social media world, Dilara and Anna are no strangers. With millions of followers on TikTok and successful Twitch streams, they have built a loyal fanbase. However, fame also has its downsides, as Anna recently revealed in an interview.

Who is Dilara? Since 2019 Dilara has been captivating the social media world, especially on TikTok, with her unique videos. With 6.9 million followers, she has become a true influencer. Her clips include dance videos, fan questions, and current TikTok trends.

In August 2023, she also started on Twitch and immediately achieved impressive success with over 5,000 viewers in her first stream. She often plays games together with her streamer colleague “Stegi” and uploads clips of that to TikTok.

Her green hair strands and constant smile have become her trademarks.

Who is Anna? Often seen alongside Dilara is her friend Anna, who, with her fiery red hair, is another social media star. Together, they frequently refer to themselves as “Mario and Luigi”.

Anna, who herself has 1.7 million TikTok followers, not only posts dance videos but also comedy videos, vlogs, and TikTok trends.

She is also active on Twitch, but has been since May 2021. She averages around 500 viewers (via Twitchtracker).

What did Anna say in the interview? Recently, Anna opened up in an interview about her thoughts. She emphasized that she wholeheartedly wishes Dilara the hype and every single viewer.

Anna herself says she also benefits from this shared success. For instance, she had the opportunity to stream with Stegi and meet viewers from Dilara’s community.

Nevertheless, there is not only positive news to report.

“I feel like her manager”

What are the downsides of this friendship? Anna spoke openly about the challenges she is currently facing. She is frustrated when people in her chat refer to her as a “sidekick”. Also, when viewers are surprised that she also streams – even though she has been doing this for two years, which is longer than Dilara.

Not only the audience, but other content creators also present challenges for Anna. She recounts situations where creators approach her and ask if she can ask Dilara certain questions.

In those moments, Anna feels like Dilara’s manager, which intensifies her frustration.

Even long-time contacts treat her differently by asking Anna to bring Dilara. Anna can hardly hide her annoyance and asks whether these contacts are only reaching out to her because of Dilara.

What are the reactions to the interview? Under the TikTok clip of the interview, Anna experiences a mixed reaction from viewers.

Some wonder who Anna even is or doubt that she truly wishes Dilara success. One user writes: “Who is this Anna? Do you have to know her?” or: “I think maybe more envious – don’t know – because she has been in it much longer”.

Others appreciate Anna’s honesty and openness. They find her likable as she openly talks about the downsides of her success.

One user writes: “She comes across as really likable because she is honest and openly talks about benefiting from it as well”.

Another user mentions: “I find it likable, she also points out what bothers her. Dilara is usually so only positive, I am somehow too old for that”.

Starfield offers 2 weapons that should actually be bad, but they belong to the best in the game

Christos Tsogos 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Starfield offers many weapons with different rarities for combat. The further you go, the rarer weapons you equip. But did you know that two of the strongest weapons in the game have a lousy rarity and you might have sold them? We show you the guns.

What kind of weapons are these? The weapons consist of a pistol and a rifle. Both weapons are from the Va’ruun faction, a cult that worships a celestial space snake. The weapons are called as follows:

Va’ruun Starshard (Pistol)
- Normal rarity (white)
Va’ruun Inflictor (Rifle)
- Normal rarity (white)

The interesting thing here is the rarity of the weapons. The rarer the rarity, the stronger the weapon should be – ideally. However, in the case of these guns, that is not true, as both weapons have a normal rarity and can still keep up with the strongest killing tools. We show you why.

Are you looking for a powerful weapon at the start? Then we have just the right thing for you:

Start video

Starfield: How to get an extremely strong weapon right from the start

Rarity does not match the weapon’s damage

Why are the weapons so strong? The pistol and the rifle deal two types of damage:

Physical damage
Energy damage

Weapons with two elements should share the damage to remain in line with other weapons of their kind. However, in this case, both weapons have separate damage types that do not share but complement each other.

In our example, which Paul Tassi obtained from the news site “Forbes”, the rifle has 111 physical damage and 329 energy damage. That amounts to a total of 440 damage you inflict.

That’s a lot when considering that this is a normal weapon. Typically, in this case, damage numbers would range from 1 to 100, depending on the difficulty from which you obtained them – 440, however, is exorbitant.

Where do I get the weapons? To obtain the weapons, you should eliminate Va’ruun enemies that are of high level. However, this is easier said than done, as they are very rare. Therefore, jump from system to system and explore space. Eventually, you will find a Va’ruun ship that you can raid.

Save before you eliminate the enemies on the ship so you can revert to your older save if the enemies did not drop the weapons. It is also worth increasing the difficulty, as that will get you better loot.

Starfield is not the first game with such powerful weapons: In the past, in games like Fallout 76, weapons have been a popular theme for Bethesda. They were either too weak or so powerful that one could take down tough bosses designed for multiple players solo. Mainly, the energy weapons were the culprits that often kept the team busy.

It could be that these weapons have not been perfectly balanced and thus have been thrown into the game as far too powerful.

Have you tested the weapons yet? If so, what do you think of them? Feel free to leave your experiences in the comments!

MMORPG Black Desert brings controversial change: “Will be more pay-to-win, but it has to be done”

Alexander Leitsch 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Pearl Abyss, the developers of Black Desert, want to combat inflation in the MMORPG. To do this, the prices for Cron stones will be adjusted. A YouTuber took a closer look at the numbers and found: The costumes for real money will become more lucrative.

What exactly is changing? The developers explain that Black Desert is struggling with a strong inflation. The average silver earned per player per day is 5.06 times higher in North America and 6 times higher in Europe in 2023 compared to 2019.

At the same time, there was only a small price adjustment at the merchants in 2019 and the last one in May 2022 for the costumes. This is supposed to change now:

The price of Cron stones at NPCs will be increased from 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 silver – an increase of 50%.
At the same time, the received Cron stones for premium sets will increase, while the prices for selling these costumes in-game will also rise.

The YouTuber Pansy took a closer look at the numbers. Due to the changes, the prices per Cron stone for the costumes will rise from 1.35 million to 1.64 million silver. So, there is an increase, but it is not nearly as strong as with the merchant.

When will this change take place? The release is planned for Wednesday, September 13.

The latest expansion for BDO, Land of the Morning Light, was released this May, and you can watch the trailer here:

Start video

BDO Online: Land of the Morning Light – Trailer

“As much as I hate Pay2Win, the game needs to make money”

What does the YouTuber say about the changes? In his video, Pansy explains that he can fundamentally understand the decision to adjust prices. The inflation in Black Desert is noticeable, and the increase in merchant prices is correct.

He views the adjustments to the costumes more critically, as it moves more towards Pay2Win.

Although it was cheaper in the past to buy costumes for real money and then destroy them to get Cron stones, the gap between 1.35 and 2 million silver was small. Now, it lies between 1.64 and 3 million, which is already more noticeable.

In the video, he says that Pearl Abyss needs to make money and that is probably why they decided on this step:

It’s something that needed to be done. As much as I dislike Pay2Win and any kind of this idea, the game needs to generate revenue, otherwise there will be no game anymore. It is what it is. I don’t think it’s a drastic or game-breaking change.

What is the purpose of the Cron stones? Cron stones prevent an item from losing levels or getting destroyed during upgrading. The rarer the equipment and the higher the level, the more Cron stones you need. As the chances of upgrading are also decreasing, you need several thousand or even tens of thousands of them.

Cron stones are easiest to obtain by buying costumes for real money and recycling them. Since the costumes can also be bought and sold directly in-game on the marketplace, others can spend real money and earn silver – the in-game currency.

Otherwise, there are the smithing NPCs who sell Cron stones directly for silver, but at significantly higher rates.

Another way to earn Cron stones is through the codes that are regularly activated: Black Desert Codes: All current coupons for BDO in September 2023.

What do you think about the change? Is it really that small or do you mind the larger advantage for real money users?

„500 $, if you make a mistake“ – WoW-HC-Guild shows crazy application interview, but there’s a catch

Cortyn 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

$500 for a mistake in the raid. No laughing in Discord. A hardcore guild in World of Warcraft Classic wants it especially hard – and thus attracts attention.

Some guilds in World of Warcraft take their business seriously – very seriously. There are strict rules and laws in guilds and hefty penalties if commitments are not met. However, a job interview caused massive attention in recent days. Because those who fail must pay $500 to the guild’s PayPal account. At least that was claimed. We look into what is true and how Asmongold reacts to it.

What job interview is it about? It’s about a “Recruitment Interview” of the streamer Mitch. He is trying to find a guild in WoW Classic Hardcore and is applying to “Frontier” – a hardcore guild with particularly tough rules.

Link to the YouTube content

Mitch is invited to a conversation on the guild’s Discord server and then confronted with several questions and rules. While the guild tax of 50 gold per week sounds acceptable, one might already choke at the second statement from Ahmpy: Because anyone who puts the guild in danger and messes up a mechanic must transfer $500 to the guild.

Fast additional rules come into play: Unwanted noises are to be avoided on Discord, such as sudden laughter. Anyone caught here gets a “strike” – and on the second strike, you’re out.

They also want to appear professional externally, so streamers who broadcast their gameplay must always wear a tie in the stream.

And, to show loyalty to the guild, the guild tabard must also be worn, even before joining the guild. Via WeakAura, it is checked whether all members have permanently put on the guild tabard.

This is how Asmongold reacts: The well-known streamer Asmongold also watched the job interview on YouTube and was shocked. Between laughter and disbelief, he listens to the conversation and finds surprisingly many points understandable – only the rule about the “500 dollars” seems a bit strange to him, as he isn’t quite sure how they intend to enforce this rule.

MMORPG on Steam is finally playable in German 5 months after launch, welcomes you to a colorful amusement park

Sometimes loot disputes in WoW Classic also lead to death – forever.

Do they really mean it seriously? Here’s the thing: No. Even though some sites sell the story as true, the entire interview is primarily a show – both Mitch and Ahmpy are playing along with this little game. This becomes particularly clear when you watch the stream from Ahmpy’s perspective (via twitch), who is casually farming dungeons and keeps breaking out into giggles – which, however, is not broadcast to Mitch on Discord, but only on his own stream.

The whole conversation is thus a parody of other guild applications that set absurdly high rules for themselves and many have probably heard of through “hearsay”.

However, one should not take this seriously. The two are streamers and mainly provide entertainment – and Ahmpy’s giggling clearly reveals that things are not as serious as some credulous people might want to believe.

“It looked like he was crying in bed”: Titanic director speaks about the worst flop in Arnold Schwarzenegger’s career

Jasmin Beverungen 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The Austrian-American actor Arnold Schwarzenegger can look back on a long career. It’s no wonder that among his numerous films, there are some flops as well. However, there is one failure that Schwarzenegger has not been able to recover from to this day.

Which flop can he not cope with? In 1993, the film Last Action Hero was released. In it, Schwarzenegger plays the action hero Jack Slater, but the film is rather intended as a parody of the action film genre. For example, Sylvester Stallone appears in the film, with whom Schwarzenegger ended his feud in the 90s.

The film currently has a rating of 6.5 out of 10 stars on IMDb and was only moderately successful at the time. With a budget of 85 million US dollars, the film grossed 137 million US dollars internationally.

However, the film flopped in the USA. There it only brought in 50 million US dollars at the box office. Only in the following years did the film gain popularity and benefit from Schwarzenegger’s humor and self-irony.

Here you can convince yourself of Schwarzenegger’s acting talent back then:

Start video

German trailer for „Total Recall“ with Arnold Schwarzenegger

James Cameron has no kind words for Arnold Schwarzenegger

How did Schwarzenegger react? In the documentary “Arnold,” which premiered on Netflix a few months ago, Schwarzenegger recounts that he could not come to terms with the failure:

It hurts. It makes you feel bad. It’s embarrassing. (…) I didn’t want to see anyone for a week.

Also, director James Cameron, who worked with him on Terminator and Terminator 2, got wind of Schwarzenegger’s state at the time. In the documentary, the Titanic director doesn’t exactly mince words with Schwarzenegger. He claims that at that time it looked as if the actor “was crying in bed.”

However, contrary to expectations that the failure was a mistake and damaged Schwarzenegger’s image, his next film was a complete success. A year later, the actor appeared in the film True Lies, which became a box office hit under Cameron’s direction.

So Schwarzenegger owes part of his success to Cameron. The director was also the one who made Schwarzenegger a “good machine” in Terminator 2. Schwarzenegger explains this as the reason for the success of the film, which gave his acting career a significant boost.

A MeinMMO survey also showed that True Lies is rated higher by you than Last Action Hero. However, Schwarzenegger is most celebrated in films like Terminator 2 and Predator.

Anyone who wants to convince themselves of Last Action Hero unfortunately has to spend money for that. The film is currently not available on any streaming service. Instead, you can buy the film on Apple TV or Amazon Prime, for example.

Schwarzenegger and Cameron had a dispute in the past. It was about a line from Terminator that almost everyone should know: Arnold Schwarzenegger didn’t actually want to say a famous line from Terminator.

Pokémon GO: First players reach step 4 of “A Paldea Adventure” – Show heavy tasks that await you

Max Handwerk 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO the research A Paldea Adventure continues. First players are now at step 4. And the tasks involved are not just simple.

What kind of research is this? The research A Paldea Adventure started with the associated event.

In the special research, you should choose a path that is assigned to each Paldea starter: Felori, Krokel and Kwaks.

Players started and first got to step 3, as it already contained tasks like spinning 50 PokéStops or earning a heart with your buddy on 7 days. It was not solvable immediately.

However, some players have now reached step 4 and show what to expect next. And: The tasks are quite challenging.

We will show you here step 4 with all tasks and rewards, organized by starter, using the overview from leaker LeekDuck (via leekduck.com).

A Paldea Adventure 4/5 with Felori

Task	Reward
Explore 30 kilometers	5 Mysterious Parts
Catch 400 Pokémon	25 Ultra Balls
Earn 40 candies while walking with your buddy	9 Golden Razz Berries
Evolve a Feliospa	2,000 XP
Visit a PokéStop on 14 days	6,000 Stardust

Stage reward: 900 XP and an unknown Pokémon encounter.

Visit a PokéStop on 14 days	6,000 Stardust

Stage reward: 900 XP and an unknown Pokémon encounter.

Pokémon GO brings the first Paldea Pokémon

What you need to consider for the special research

Overall, the tasks and rewards overlap depending on the path, differing only in the evolution of the second starter stage. So be careful not to send all your starters before solving the task.

It is also worth taking a Pokémon as a buddy that earns candies quickly. So, for example, Pokémon that get a candy after one kilometer, instead of those that need 5 kilometers.

Additionally, you do not need to visit the 14 PokéStops on consecutive days. Thus, no streak can be broken, as was the case with some other tasks.

We will keep you informed as always.

In general, there are currently exciting bonuses in Pokémon GO that should not be missed.

Crypto criminal stole 2.3 billion euros, now must serve 11,196 years in prison: „I am smart enough to lead any institution in the world“

Benedikt Schlotmann 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The head of a crypto exchange made off with his clients’ savings in 2021. After his arrest in Albania, he has now been sentenced.

Cryptocurrencies are controversial. One of the best-known exchanges for cryptocurrencies, Thodex, collapsed in 2021, and the head of the exchange disappeared without a trace, with 2.5 billion USD (2.3 billion euros).

The head of the exchange has now been sentenced to 11,196 years in prison. The public prosecutor’s office had demanded more than 40,000 years for each individual employee of the company.

Our title image is taken from the YouTube channel TRT Haber. This features the arrested head of Thodex.

Autoplay

Crypto exchange was seen by users as a safe alternative to real money

What was Thodex? Thodex was founded in 2017 and had success during a time when Turkey’s state currency, the lira, was experiencing rapid inflation. The Turkish population began to view cryptocurrencies as a seemingly safer option compared to the volatile lira and invested their savings there.

In 2021, there was supposed to have been a major crash: The funds of the owners were frozen, the head still claimed that everything was safe, and then disappeared without a trace. In September 2022, the police apprehended him in Albania.

The analysts from “Chainanalysis” (via chainanalysis.com) stated in a comprehensive report: Thodex was apparently from the very beginning a sinister tactic, a so-called “Rug Pull”:

A seemingly legitimate company is founded.
The company operates for a time like a normal business and builds trust with its customers. These then invest their money in the company.
After a sudden “crash”, all the money suddenly disappears.
Thodex is said to have been exactly such a scam. According to analysts, numerous scams in recent years are linked to Thodex.

How much money really disappeared in the end is controversial: Prosecutors mention a sum of approximately 43 million euros. Experts, however, estimate the sum at 2 billion euros.

In Turkey, long prison sentences instead of the death penalty

Why are the prison sentences so high? The Turkish public prosecutor’s office had then demanded 40,564 years in prison for the head and his 20 colleagues each. Now he and his siblings are getting away with “only” 11,196 years in prison. He himself stated in court, according to a Turkish news agency:

I am smart enough to lead any institution in the world. This is evidenced by the company I founded at the age of 22. If this were a criminal organization, I would not have acted so ineptly.

Since the abolition of the death penalty in Turkey in 2004, such long prison sentences are not unusual. However, colleagues from PCGamer joke that the head of the exchange could at least somewhat mitigate the long sentence with good behavior: Then he would be free again after 4,000 to 6,000 years.

More on crypto banks: Crypto banks and large exchanges are said to manage large sums for their users repeatedly. However, it often goes wrong. Recently, a large company declared bankruptcy. This involves billions of euros managed by this company. Many users wonder if they will ever see their money again:

User upgrades his gaming PC for 700 euros via Amazon – Experiences a nasty surprise six months later

Lydia 11. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

A user purchased a high-end CPU on Amazon. Nearly six months later, he found out that he may have fallen victim to a scam.

Disclaimer: The title image serves as a symbolic image and does not show the described user.

What was that part? As Reddit user Much_Designer_8417 reported in a post in the intel subreddit, he bought a high-end processor for £585 in April 2023. Converted, that would currently be about €680 (via 3D Juegos).

The Core i9-13900K is a particularly fast and powerful CPU from Intel. You can find out which one is right for you here with us. However, the user found that his system instead recognizes a Core i7-13700K. The CPU is worth about €200 less, depending on the offer.

Just because i9 is on it, doesn’t mean there’s an i9 inside

What went wrong? On Reddit, Much_Designer_8417 shares several images. It is clearly visible that the casing bears the inscription “i9-13900K.” However, all sorts of tools show the older i7.

In the comments, users speculate on how this could be possible. The top comment provides a simple explanation: “Guess who just got scammed.” The buyer claims to have bought the CPU new from Amazon (via Reddit).

However, users speculate that it may have been a fraudulent third-party seller on the platform. Others believe that someone could have bought, swapped, and returned the CPU. It wouldn’t be the first time that the return system of Amazon has caused issues.

One user also raises the concern that the poster themselves might be preparing such a scam (via Reddit). In fact, the account of u/Much_Designer_8417 is still quite new. Their version of the story should be taken with caution.

Nonetheless, multiple users in the comments report similar experiences: whether it’s storage media that have significantly less capacity than stated or a 10-year-old processor instead of the $1,200 CPU (via Reddit).

Whether the buyer can still file a complaint about the CPU after nearly six months is uncertain. However, Reddit users recommend that he still try to file a complaint.

Another gamer recently faced a similar situation with a graphics card. However, he did not need six months to notice that something was wrong. The error was already obvious when opening the package: Gamer buys Nvidia graphics card directly on Amazon, receives instead a part worth almost nothing

He carries out his endeavor with an almost shy note, emphasizing how strange it feels. This is sure to make Astarion’s fans chuckle.

Before taking this risky step, he wisely saved his game – in case he messes up his date. He then confidently turned to his Twitch chat and asked for support in his romantic adventure.

For those of you who prefer more flexible timings, there is also a solution: Neil Newbon uploads the best moments of his adventures as Let’s Plays on his YouTube channel so you won’t miss any of his amusing escapades.

His streams offer a colorful mix of funny moments, Astarion moments, analyses, and surprise guests – including Amelia Tyler, the narrator of Baldur’s Gate 3, who was originally much more malevolent towards you.

Players in Baldur’s Gate 3 celebrate small details: „Finally an old woman who actually looks like one“

Fabienne Kissel 10. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

In Baldur’s Gate 3, players are thrilled by the little details incorporated by Larian Studios. They appreciate the cellulite and age spots on Jaheira. MeinMMO reveals what the story is about.

What details are we talking about? In the gaming world, there is often a clear idea of how characters should look: flawless skin, perfectly defined muscles, and smooth body lines. But sometimes there are characters that challenge the norms of beauty ideals and represent authentic bodies.

One such character is Jaheira from Baldur’s Gate 3. When a player decided to change her outfit, he experienced a pleasant surprise – he did not expect to encounter such impressive details.

5 helpful tips for Baldur’s Gate 3

Baldur’s Gate 3 integrates authentic bodies

What discovery did the player make? A player decided to change Jaheira’s outfit and was positively surprised – he did not expect such details.

Varicose veins, cellulite, wrinkles, and age spots – all these details are integrated into Jaheira’s appearance. The attention to detail reflected in her outer appearance is remarkable, giving her a realistic, aged look. Nevertheless, she radiates an unparalleled beauty and strength. This combination simply blew the player away.

On Reddit, user Glittering_Act_4059 comments on Jaheira’s body:

Jaheira – the centuries-old (??), tough warrior – receives the best body in the entire game. Varicose veins, cellulite, wrinkles, age spots – the love for detail with which her age is depicted, while also conveying the impression that she can really fight as well as she does, blows me away.

And what a great message does this give to players? That your body doesn’t have to be perfect, but can still be strong, powerful, and beautiful.

Larian […] could have given her the same beauty standards that so many characters have. Instead, they designed her in a way that allows players to identify with her, which I never expected.

Here you can see a few images that show Jaheira’s body in detail. It’s also noteworthy that Baldur’s Gate 3 allows players to select vitiligo spots in the character editor.

How did other players react to Jaheira? Some players commented the following under the Reddit post:

Chrissy_squeezy wrote: “Finally an old woman who looks like an old woman.”
Rork310 wishes similar options in the character editor: “Yes, there is a lot of attention to detail, it’s just a pity that there is no way to do something similar in the character editor.[…]”
Alicex13 appreciates a small detail: “I really appreciate the cellulite. It’s certainly a small detail, but it makes Jaheira, at least for me, more relatable.”

Starfield: Streamer finds random loot in probably the most unusual place – “This changes everything”

Nicole Wakulczyk 10. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Games like Starfield invite exploration and discovery. That one could find loot even in the restroom – a streamer probably didn’t expect that.

On X, formerly Twitter, the Twitch streamer “Blurbs” shows in a video clip how his game character stands in a toilet in Starfield. When he struggles to open the toilet seat, he is surprised to find a useful item.

Actually, you cannot open the toilets in Starfield at all.

Besides useful items, Starfield also offers numerous helpful skills:

In Starfield, you open toilets with towels, totally logical

What does the video clip show? On X (formerly Twitter), Blurbs posted a video on September 7, writing: “My biggest discovery in Starfield so far.” His game character accidentally opens the toilet in front of him by pushing a corpse against the toilet seat.

Then, Blurbs says: “Wait a minute. Can you open the toilets?” He then looks for an object to open the lid. With a folded towel, he lifts the toilet seat and discovers a medpack in the toilet.

He reacts visibly surprised:

Oh my God, there’s a medpack. In the toilet that you can’t open manually. This changes everything.

Then he is surprised again, because: when he opens the toilet seat once more, a new medpack has spawned.

Here you can see the 46-second video:

Why does this change everything? Loot can be found in such games at almost every corner. Some players go through RPGs, especially in open-world games, very thoroughly when looting. They sweep through places, search even the smallest rooms, climb rocks, and scan every dark corner.

While players certainly enter the occasional toilet to loot, they probably won’t lift every toilet seat to see if valuable loot is hidden there – especially since you actually cannot open the toilets in Starfield.

The video and Blurbs’ experience show that a second look can definitely be worthwhile. Whether you want to go through the effort for a medpack – or a similar item – is up to you.

In the comments, Blurbs is asked how he manages to hold and move objects in front of him. You have to hold the “Use” button longer, with which you would normally pick up items.

With this mechanic, you can also become master thieves in Starfield if you move the right objects:

MMORPG players celebrate “outstanding victory”, after developers apologize and remove Pay2Win features

Lydia 10. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

The MMORPG RuneScape received negative reviews on Steam after the developers introduced an unpopular battle pass. Now Jagex is backtracking, and the community rejoices.

What has happened recently with RuneScape? The MMORPG introduced a new battle pass on August 29, 2023. This “Hero Pass” went live on September 4 and was supposed to be renewed every 3 months. In addition to free unlockable rewards, there was to be a premium version with better rewards.

However, the pass was received poorly by players: Steam was flooded with negative reviews for RuneScape, which had previously been rated very positively. Long-time players criticized the direction the MMORPG was taking.

After developer Jagex had initially half-heartedly announced they would listen to player feedback, they apologized in a blog post dated September 8.

Officials say: “We messed up”

What does Jagex say? In the latest update, the officials admitted to having “messed up”. The introduction of the “Hero Pass” frustrated many in the community: “We made a significant miscalculation, and we are sorry.”

They added that they need to think about it and learn from it. Jagex now wants to urgently patch the game to remove the unpopular pay-to-win features.

What comes next? First of all, the creators want to remove the particularly unpopular features “as soon as possible”. Then they would have time to process feedback in detail and redesign the “Hero Pass”.

In detail, this means:

Purchasing “Hero Pass” levels and Underworld emblems will be disabled. This has already happened via a hotfix.
Content buffs from the “Hero Pass” are to be removed as a cold fix over the next week.
XP buffs from the “Hero Pass” are to be moved from the premium track to the free track over the next week.
The premium pass will only include cosmetic items and consumables.

Additionally, the “Daily Challenge” system, which had been removed in favor of the “Hero Pass”, will be reintroduced. Work is underway for its reinstatement, but it may take several weeks before the system goes live.

Those who have already purchased the pass can contact customer support for a refund.

Why not abolish the “Hero Pass” altogether? Jagex gives three reasons for this:

Patching the problem areas is simply faster than removing an entire branched game system.
Hundreds of thousands of players have already completed missions from the “Hero Pass” and received rewards. It would be unfair to take that progress away from them now.
Additionally, they are optimistic about being able to manage the issues.

Community praises Jagex for listening

How does the community react? They are celebrating in a subreddit dedicated to RuneScape under a post tagged “Supreme Victory”. In 999 comments (as of September 10, 2023, 15:45), players discuss Jagex’s reaction.

CatsAndFacts seems a bit snarky: “I am truly shocked. I would love to know how many accounts have unsubscribed because of this. It must have been significant enough to make such a hard backtrack.”
Rida_Dain praises: “I am seriously impressed that they not only listened to almost all feedback but actually plan to bring back the daily challenges.[…]”
5-x is hopeful: “I am impressed with the quick and resolute turnaround. I hope Jagex works with the community to make the “Hero Pass” a better successor to the “Yak Track” that everyone will be satisfied with.”

However, Jagex could not smooth over all waves with their apology. Some players feel the changes are not sufficient, while others point out that the real problems are deeper than the “Hero Pass”. A fundamental change is needed in how such updates are introduced. (via Reddit).

Overall, the tone in the comments is rather positive. Players are pleased that the makers of RuneScape actually listen to their community and admit mistakes. Whether Jagex can really save the “Hero Pass” remains to be seen.

Others directly take it a step further and completely abolish the system:

Company announces caffeine noodles for gamers: “Food of the Gods”

Nicole Wakulczyk 10. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Caffeinated drinks are part of gaming for many, as are snacks that are quick to make. A noodle manufacturer has now combined both and is bringing “gamer-friendly” noodles to the market.

The story of the noodle producer Nissin Group began in 1958 with the development of the world’s first instant noodles. Now they want to launch caffeinated “Cup Noodles” that are primarily aimed at gamers.

The noodles will be launched in Japan – if you want to test your stomach with this wild combination, currently, that is only possible there.

The “gamer-friendly” dish

The combination of a quick snack and caffeine while gaming is essential for many. Some gamers stock up on 120 energy drinks before important releases. A noodle manufacturer has seemingly thought: why not combine caffeine and snack? It also makes the intake of calories and caffeine somewhat faster.

What kind of noodles are these? Nissin Group plans to offer two different dishes. In addition to noodles, there will also be a curry variant with rice. Both are supposed to be “soup-free,” thus saving gamers from broth-stained hands and gaming setups while playing.

The caffeinated noodle dish will contain according to the website-translation meat and a soy-based sauce with pepper flavor and garlic. The rice dish contains – in addition to the caffeine – a curry sauce with meat and ginger.

As for the design of the “Cup Noodles,” the colorful cup is reminiscent of gaming setups with RGB lighting and is presumably aimed at exactly this target group. The information about the new gaming snack has already been picked up on Reddit:

Translation of the image text: “Cup Noodles” is bringing a caffeinated version to become “gamer-friendly”

Here are the reactions: The post by the user kevinowdziej currently has around 2,800 upvotes and 40 comments on Reddit. One user commented on the post that the dish is already “the cheapest, fastest, and easiest meal on the planet” and therefore perfectly suitable for gamers (via Reddit).

Another user replies: “I won’t dismiss that, a quick and easy noodle meal and a big shot of caffeine in one? Hell yeah.”

Other users also express their enthusiasm in the comments. DZL100 refers to the gaming noodles as “food of the gods” since they represent an affordable, quick, and easy nourishment.

Another comment refers to the promotion of digestion through the new caffeinated snack: “If instant noodles haven’t made you poop quickly enough before, then I have exactly what you need.”

Whether gamers will handle the RGB noodles like young gods remains to be seen, as does whether the noodles will make it to Europe. This already smells like potential to bring the quick, caffeinated snack to German gamers, right?

Would you try the noodles? Feel free to let us know in the comments. Otherwise, we can still recommend these snacks for gaming, guaranteed without mess:

5 horror movies for 18 and above that are not for the faint-hearted

Niko Hernes 10. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

Nowadays, it is quite difficult for a horror film to receive an FSK18 rating. Much of what was once frowned upon is now rated 16. Nevertheless, some films manage to achieve an FSK18 rating through a lot of blood, violence, or simply the theme. We have compiled 5 horror films from recent years that have managed to do this and are worth watching.

The films on this list are all rated 18 for good reason, and therefore one should inform oneself beforehand about what happens or is shown in the films, especially if one is prone to such types of films. If you are very sensitive to this kind of films, you should steer clear of these titles.

How was the list created? The list is a mix of several factors. All films are from recent years and a mix of both more and less well-known hidden gems. The topics and subgenres also offer variety. If your favorite hidden gem is not included, then let us know in the comments.

The Korean cinema also offers some good films:

This is probably the most well-known film on this list and the latest installment of an old horror series. Evil Dead Rise is the quasi-sequel to the reboot of Evil Dead from 2013. This time, however, evil does not rage in the woods, but in the big city in a high-rise building.

A mother is possessed by evil and tries to kill her sister and her children. True to the Evil Dead franchise, there is a lot of bloodshed, and the classic bitter evil humor of the series cannot be missed. A worthy successor to the bloody series.

2. Pearl

A film that is also from this year is Pearl. It is a prequel to the film X. The film tells the story of Pearl, who simply wants to escape her dreary farm life. But as innocent as Pearl appears, she is not, and her true nature becomes evident as the film progresses.

The film captivates with the atmosphere of old films and reminds through the setting and costume design of The Wizard of Oz. The big highlight is Mia Goth, who fantastically embodies the madness of Pearl as the lead actress.

Player accepts bounty hunting in Starfield, shows no mercy, feels guilty

Dariusz Müller 10. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Starfield surprised a player with a bounty hunting mission that had an unexpected twist.

Starfield offers, in addition to a surprisingly short main story, plenty of side quests, random events, and other activities that should keep players engaged for countless hours. Among the numerous activities of the role-playing game are various bulletin boards where missions are posted.

These mission boards feature tasks such as exploring specific planets or finding a special ecosystem. Additionally, there are also some bounty hunts where players are supposed to take out criminals.

One such bounty hunt was meant to surprise a player with an unexpected twist.

Autoplay

What was that mission about? As the Reddit user “thefluffyburrito” wrote on the platform, he played a bounty hunting mission in which he was supposed to eliminate a mining operation run by the Spacers (via Reddit).

Spacers are independent and unorganized criminals in Starfield who cause mayhem in small groups in space. They often loot and occupy abandoned outposts and are hostile towards outsiders.

Spacers are rarely interested in aggressive raids.

Why was the player surprised? Throughout the mission, the player showed no mercy and took out the Spacers one by one. After defeating the final enemy, he found the keys to the living quarters of the Spacers on him.

He wondered why Spacers had established living quarters in an abandoned mine and further investigated the site. Shortly after, he came across a small facility, opened its door, and discovered some notes from the Spacers inside.

The Spacers apparently intended to build a legal life with the mine and leave their criminal past behind. According to the Reddit user, some of the notes contained sentences like:

“I can’t wait until we get this old mining operation up and running so we can really get started.”
“I’m so glad we’re finally not the bad guys anymore.”

Thus, the player took down people who no longer wanted to be bad, no longer wanted to be criminals. It was not a criminal mining operation run by Spacers, but honest work – or at least an attempt at it.

Finally, Final Fantasy XIV could get a new class that allows me to unleash the beast whisperer within me

Jasmin Beverungen 10. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

The adventures of Final Fantasy XIV start a new chapter. With Dawntrail, there will be some new features, including two new classes. MyMMO author Jasmin Beverungen wishes for two specific classes.

After the saga around Hydaelyn and Zodiark ended with Endwalker, I am now eagerly looking forward to the new Dawntrail expansion. It promises a nice graphic update, new areas, and two new classes.

Not much is known about the new classes so far. One of the classes is supposed to be a melee fighter, the other a mage.

Many fans suspect that FF14 producer Naoki Yoshida gave a hint about the new classes with his T-shirt. In the past, he has hinted at new content and classes with his shirts, which is why the big guessing game began on social media.

I personally would be especially happy about a new class and would probably even give up my main class for it.

You can see the new expansion Dawntrail in the following trailer:

Start video

Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail – Trailer for the new expansion

Why I really want to tame animals

My absolute favorite class that I have missed since I started in Final Fantasy XIV is the Beastmaster.

This class appears in Final Fantasy XI and many other spin-offs of the series. With this class, it is possible to bind several enemy monsters for a certain time and let them fight for you.

That’s what I actually hoped for from my Summoner. In the beginning, I chose Summoner as my main class because I thought I could actually summon monsters to the field.

The Summoner does have a Carbuncle, and since its latest change, it can summon Garuda, Ifrit, and Titan. However, the latter are not as present as companions that would permanently support me in battle.

They are only summoned for a specific period and then disappear again. I can’t form such an emotional bond with the summons. I imagine it differently with monsters that are permanently on the battlefield.

I like it when I’m not alone on the field and have creatures by my side that fight for me. Accordingly, the perfect class for me would be a Beast or Animal Tamer who binds monsters to themselves. This way, I could travel through the world of FF14 with my zoo of animals without ever being completely alone.
