Getting past Jinx was probably completely impossible in recent years for good reason. And I think for good reason. Jinx definitely seems to be a fun character, and after this short music video, I can already understand the hype around her.

She gives off a certain “Harley Quinn” energy at least in the video, and I personally quite like that. And even though she only seems wacky and chaotic in the video, loving explosions and gunfights, it seems in a subtle way that there is much more behind her character.

Getting to know Jinx and her story better is definitely now at the top of my “to-do list.”

The last video especially impressed me with the music.

I’m a fan of the Chinese singer Jackson Wang myself and didn’t even realize he made a song for League of Legends. So I was a bit pleased to stumble upon a video with his music.

Furthermore, I find the whole video very well made, with the colors and effects used here. The video has a very small and short storyline, but it is well-written nonetheless.

After 20 years, the best role-playing game about modern vampires gets a successor: Check out the trailer

Linda Knabe 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Bloodlines 2 is the continuation of the popular role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade, which was originally released in 2004. Now, 20 years later, the developers want to impress again with vampire action and show the first gameplay in the trailer. Fans are excited about this, but they also wish for more.

What is it about? In Bloodlines 2, you will fight your way through modern Seattle as an ancient vampire ancestor, dealing not only with her voice in your head.

As a vampire, blood is your main source of nourishment, and you must obtain it discreetly. At night, you lure your victims into the dark alleys of the metropolis and take their blood.
Just make sure not to get caught. Because once your masquerade falls, it’s not just the police on your tail.

Additionally, Seattle is on the brink of open war, and you will have to decide who should rule the city and what will become of it.

Start video

Bloodlines 2 Gameplay Trailer

Autoplay

What does the trailer show? The trailer primarily showcases the combat mechanics you can expect in this first-person game. You can see the character knocking out enemies with quick punches or using shockwaves to throw them to the ground.

There is also a kind of “blood attack” demonstrated. The blood lashes out at your enemies almost like a whip and knocks them down.

The trailer also gives you a glimpse into the dark and less pleasant corners of Seattle, effectively building the entire atmosphere of the “underworld of a metropolis”.

What do players say about the experience? Players are excited about the beautiful gameplay they see but wish to see a bit more from the game, as is evident in the comments on Youtube.

Jestergodfield690 writes that they now want to see what the first part was known for: role-playing decisions and great dialogues.

Many of the remaining commentators feel the same way.

There is definitely great excitement about a continuation, after fans were rather disappointed by the developer in the past.

The hope is that the second part will possess the same charm as its predecessor. Whether this will be fulfilled, however, will probably only be shown in future trailers and announcements.

Starfield: All Companions and How to Get Them

Christos Tsogos 4. September 2023 Reading time 4 minutes

In Starfield, you have a wide selection of companions that you can take with you on your journey. What companions are, how many are available, and how to obtain them will be explained in our overview.

What are companions? As the name suggests, companions are computer-controlled characters in Starfield that can accompany you on your travels.

Primarily, they help you in combat and provide additional firepower. They can also assist with your carrying capacity by taking items off your hands and storing them.

How many companions are there? Bethesda itself talked in an interview about the multitude of companions available in Starfield. It was mentioned that there are over 20 named characters who can follow you, assist in combat, and carry your load.

In our list, we categorize the companions into three categories:

Companions from the Constellation
- Important story characters with the most interaction options
Optional companions
- Characters you meet during missions
Companions that can be hired
- Characters who follow you for credits

Now we go into detail and show you which companions exist, what their names are, and what you need to do to hire them.

Select a MMO video…

All Companions of the Constellation – With Location

Vasco

Where can I find this companion? Vasco is a robot that you will automatically meet in the first mission “A Small Step”.

Sarah Morgan

Where can I find this companion? You can meet Sarah at the end of your first mission “A Small Step”. She is the head of the Constellation and will welcome you.

Sam Coe

Where can I find this companion? Sam can be found relatively early in the main story during the mission “The Empty Nest”.

Andreja

Where can I find this companion? You can find Andreja during the quest “Into the Unknown” when Vladimir sends you to check on her.

Barrett

Where can I find this companion? You can only recruit Barrett starting from the mission “Return to Vectera”.

On page 2, you will find the optional companions.

EA Sports FC 24: Ratings of FC Bayern – Leak shows values of the record champion

Julian Schröder 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Currently, more and more leaks about the players in EA Sports FC 24 are emerging, and FC Bayern Munich is involved. How strong will the German record champions be?

Where do the ratings come from? The cards we are showing you here are leaks that currently appear on the Twitter account “Fut Scoreboard“. The well-known FUT leaker has been publishing numerous ratings for days, showing how strong the players could be.

However, it must be noted that these are not ratings officially confirmed by EA. They are still pending, but should be released soon.

According to the leaks, the following overall ratings emerge:

Neuer: 87 – previously 90
Musiala: 86 – previously 81
De Ligt: 86 – previously 85

Kim Min Jae: 84 – previously 79
Davies: 83 – previously 84
Guerreiro: 82 – previously 82
Upamecano: 82 – previously 81

If you take a close look at the ratings, it quickly becomes clear that downgrades dominate for the current German champions. The values for Kimmich, De Ligt, Davies, Coman, and Gnabry drop by one point. According to the leaks, Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller are said to drop by 3 points, and Goretzka by 2.

However, there are still winners. Kane is expected to improve by one point in the overall rating, and Jamal Musiala makes an enormous leap from 81 to 86, which could give him a really strong card. Also, new signing Kim Min Jae is said to become 5 overall points stronger according to leaks.

Diablo 4: A certain class would fit perfectly into Season 2 – But Blizzard says it won’t come

Jasmin Beverungen 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

For the release of Diablo 4, a total of five classes are playable. Theoretically, it would be possible for more classes to be added throughout the seasons. For Season 2, a class from Diablo Immortal would be a great fit. However, Blizzard has already confirmed that this class will not be coming to Diablo 4.

Which class is it about? Season 2 thematically revolves around vampires and their insatiable thirst. Therefore, it would be fitting if the Blood Knight from Diablo Immortal would come as a new class to the game.

The Blood Knight is a mix of Paladin/Crusader and vampire. He can shift between a human and beast form, just like the Druid.
He uses blood magic and close combat to shred enemies.
The class has only been available in Diablo Immortal since July 13, 2023, making it the first new class in over nine years.

The Blood Knight would fit well into Season 2 of Diablo 4 for several reasons. So far, it has not been announced that there will be a new class in Season 2. Nevertheless, there was hope that the Blood Knight would enter the game due to its theme.

However, the General Manager of the Diablo universe, Rod Fergusson, recently dispelled this assumption. In an interview with 4players, he revealed that the overlap of the vampire themes is purely coincidental:

Diablo 4 and Diablo Immortal are two very different games with two very different teams and two different technologies. So it’s more of a coincidence that the team had this kind of vampire. It has somehow aligned over time. But no, the Blood Knight will not appear in Diablo 4.

This means that not only will the Blood Knight not be part of Season 2 in Diablo 4. Even worse, Fergusson’s statement suggests that the Blood Knight might not even find his way into the game with future updates. Thus, the Vampire Knight remains a mobile-exclusive class.

The following video on MeinMMO presents the new season:

Players desire new class in Diablo 4

Which class could come next instead? Many players feel that Diablo 4 is missing the Paladin class. The holy warrior is also highly regarded by you and is the most requested class, as a survey on MeinMMO shows.

The Paladin has been around since Diablo 2 and would be a good addition to the existing five classes. There are even some hints that the class might make it after Diablo 4.

Other conceivable classes could include the Monk, the Witch Doctor, or the Amazon. Blizzard has already indicated that more classes will follow, but probably only with later expansions. Accordingly, the seasons are likely to proceed without new classes.

According to MeinMMO author Benedict Grothaus, it is not a shame if you take a short break from Diablo 4: Diablo 4 is the perfect game not to play.

Starfield: DrDisrespect says Bethesda rejected collaboration with him – now knows why

Schuhmann 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The YouTuber and former Twitch streamer DrDisrespect says he offered Bethesda a collaboration on the SF role-playing game Starfield twice. But they strictly declined. Now he also understands why. He apparently categorizes Pete Hines, the head of Bethesda, as politically “woke”.

Who is DrDisrespect?

Guy Beahm was one of the most successful Twitch streamers for many years. The former Call of Duty developer is a gifted entertainer who plays a character: In this role, he mourns his past youth, in which he was able to win two video game championships in a row.
After a still unexplained ban on Twitch, he streams without a contract on YouTube and is one of the biggest live streamers there. He is also working on his own game and sells a bourbon brand.
The gaming influencer often crosses boundaries. Especially his former employer Activision Blizzard and their shooter series Call of Duty seems to have captured him by now.

DrDisrespect was a celebrity on Twitch – His ban remains a big mystery to this day

“Due to past controversies, there’s no way we can collaborate with DrDisrespect”

This is what he says now about Starfield: DrDisrespect said in a stream on September 1 (via youtube) that he and his team had inquired with Bethesda twice about a collaboration on Starfield:

Once, if they could do something together for Starfield – anything?
A second time, if he could at least play the game with some others

Both times the request was declined by Bethesda. They didn’t even give him early access to the game. The response was: “Due to past controversies, there’s no way we can collaborate with DrDisrespect.”

However, the influencer apparently didn’t understand why the collaboration didn’t come about.

What did DrDisrespect think it was about? DrDisrespect looked at Pete Hines’s Twitter profile in the stream and read there the pronouns he would like to be addressed by: he/him.

For DrDisrespect, it was thus clear why Bethesda didn’t want to collaborate with him:

“He/him. Understood. Okay, now everything starts to make sense. Everything makes sense now. Got it.”

What does he mean by that? DrDisrespect obviously believes that those who indicate their pronouns on Twitter belong to a group of people who place value on “political correctness.”

DrDisrespect seems to believe that for these people who are “politically woke,” he is a person one would not want to collaborate with. He seems to see himself politically in a different spectrum.

DrDisrespect mainly attracted attention in his early days with some parodies and statements that even he now considers too far: Even DrDisrespect is becoming more politically correct on Twitch – No more “Chinese”

Whoever survives the lame start of Starfield will celebrate the game

Maik Schneider 4. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

Starfield may not be the masterpiece some fans hoped for from the first new game universe of Bethesda Studios in 25 years. However, MeinMMO author Maik Schneider and some fans explain why this sci-fi RPG is still a hit.

My Starfield story began back in 2008. I got my hands on the GOTY version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion and squeezed the game on the PS3 for every last drop of content. Ok … a friend played many of the dimension portals for me. They were too scary for me.

To this day, hundreds of hours of Elder Scrolls and Fallout have added up. As a sci-fi and space fan, Starfield was somehow the fulfillment of a dream. Accordingly, I was very excited about the game.

After the first few hours, I want to present you with a little conclusion, along with some comments from the community who had the exact same experience as I did: If you have fun in the first few hours, then Starfield is just your thing!

Start video

7 gameplay highlights from Starfield that you should know about

Starfield has an acceleration like ketchup

What does that mean? Starfield is, at its core, a game from Bethesda Game Studios. There is:

… more to explore than one can see
… more to collect than the inventory can hold
… more dialogue lines than we will ever hear

However, right after the tutorial mission, we do not find ourselves on a large, cohesive map like in Fallout or The Elder Scrolls. Starfield offers a whole universe with 1,000 more or less exciting planets.

Unlike Skyrim, we don’t see dragons right from the start and we are immediately in the story. It isn’t like Fallout, where there are usually dungeons ready to explore or wasteland survivors waiting for solutions to their problems right after leaving the vault.

Although you can fly in all directions relatively early, Starfield signals to the player to follow the story first. And that can take a while.

At that point, here’s my conclusion: Even though the introduction progresses at ketchup speed – I was immediately captivated.

The first tests for Starfield are here – This is how Bethesda’s new mega-RPG performs

von Dariusz Müller

The familiar feeling of enthusiasm and freedom, for which I appreciate Bethesda games, was immediately back. When I was allowed to collect my first crate of purple glowing loot, my mouth corners turned up. Of course, I first had to clean up my inventory to empty the crate.

At that moment, the game wasn’t really starting yet; I even had introductory missions in the log.

Starfield has its flaws, is far from perfect, sometimes a bit slow, and certainly not an action fireworks display. But it’s a loving adventure that will enrich my coming weeks.

So my advice to all aspiring space travelers: If you like the game feel of the first hours, then you are exactly right with Starfield. If you found the beginning somewhat appealing, then stick with it.

If you are absolutely unsure, play Starfield starting September 6 in the Xbox Game Pass. One month costs 10 euros on PC and 11 euros for the console. You can also get 14 trial days as a gift from a friend.

’12 hours in and I love it’

What do players say about it? A large thread has formed on the discussion platform Reddit on this topic (via reddit.com). Over 650 comments express and discuss first impressions of Starfield, and many players apparently had a similar experience to mine.

The thread creator even draws a comparison to Skyrim: “It feels like I’m playing Skyrim for the first time like back in 2011.” The comment with the most upvotes explains that he spent a full 3 hours on the tutorial moon because he wanted to scan everything right away.

Often there is the note that it’s not a “space sim”. That’s a problem because some players expected exactly that. The space gameplay, however, is rather meager, which is often criticized in the thread. Players of Elite Dangerous or Star Citizen are in the wrong place here.

It’s a typical Bethesda game. “Skyrim in space,” although current comparisons see it more as “Fallout 4 in space.” If you are looking for that kind of experience, then try Starfield.

User “Open-Let-1014” sums it up for some players: “Ok, I’m 12 hours in and I love it. I have only scratched the surface so far. There’s an overwhelming amount to do. Disappointed with space travel, but everything else is top-notch – we’ll see you out there, space cowboys!!!”

The head of Starfield explains: „The Game Pass drives me crazy“

Patrick Freese 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

In an interview, Pete Hines, the head of Bethesda, explains what makes the Game Pass so good. After all, the role-playing game Starfield is not coming to PlayStation 5. Are there any concerns about lower sales numbers?

What’s happening with Starfield? For a few days now, owners can already dive into the new space role-playing game from Bethesda through Early Access. The official release for all players without early access will take place on Wednesday, September 6, 2023. However, the game is only being released for Xbox Series X|S and PC. No release is planned for PS4 and PS5.

JeuxVideo conducted an interview with Pete Hines, Head of Publishing at Bethesda Softworks, during gamescom 2023. They asked if there are worries about the sales numbers.

Starfield celebrates the release on PC, Xbox, and in Game Pass tonight – All info in 2 minutes

von Maik Schneider

“That’s strange […] but now we like it”

What does Pete Hines say? In the interview, he is asked if he is worried about the game’s sales numbers because it is not being released for PlayStation 5. He responds:

In the USA, the Game Pass Ultimate costs 17 dollars (about 15 euros in Germany). For 17 dollars, you can connect a controller to Samsung TVs and play Starfield without owning a console. The Game Pass drives me crazy! I’m an old man; I was born when there were no video games, no consoles, no PCs, no mobile phones. The fact that you don’t even need a console to play the biggest Bethesda game ever made on Xbox is an incredible level of accessibility.

You can play it on anything that can run a browser. I tested it with a Kindle Fire, a phone. You click on Link Cloud and play Starfield. So if you’re a PlayStation player, you won’t be playing on your PlayStation, of course.

PlayStation players, on the other hand, can play the entire Xbox Game Pass catalog for 17 US dollars per month, which is not insignificant. They can play Starfield, Forza, and everything else they want. They can play at home or at work, thanks to the browser-based cloud. (…) That’s strange for us because throughout our entire existence, we’ve been asked to pay full price to play our games. There were no subscriptions. But now we like it. We are building an audience.

As early as June 2021, shortly after E3, Hines commented on this topic. He feels sorry that PS5 fans are sad, but he did not apologize for the exclusivity.

However, it almost turned out very differently, and PC and Xbox players would have found the disadvantage on their side. Xbox head Phil Spencer explained that Starfield almost became an exclusive title for PS5. Supposedly, Sony was already negotiating a deal. But then Microsoft stepped in.

On which platform are you playing Starfield? Are you also using the cloud technology of the Game Pass for it?

Blizzard CEO says 2 words about the next WoW expansion, disappoints many and fuels hopes

Cortyn 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The head of Blizzard has commented on the next expansion of World of Warcraft. Just two words – but they have sparked a lot of discussion.

The next expansion of World of Warcraft is highly anticipated. After Shadowlands was generally considered the low point of WoW, things noticeably improved with Dragonflight. The next addon is expected to continue this positive trend and show that Blizzard has really understood what players want.

As usual, there are already many ideas, speculations, and supposed leaks giving hints about the next expansion. Now, Blizzard president Mike Ybarra has made a statement on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the next expansion. With just two words, he has dispelled many theories – and fueled some even more.

What was said? Mr. Dave addressed the general theme of the next WoW expansion in a tweet. He believes that the discussion is sometimes conducted with some misunderstanding about what players actually want when they talk about a “Return to Azeroth.”

Many people do not understand what others mean by a “Return to Azeroth.”

People want a RETURN to the OLD PLACES in AZEROTH. Mainly to rediscover the two places that made them love this game.

They don’t want pirates. They want the World of Warcraft.

Recommended editorial content

At this point you will find external content from Twitter that complements the article.

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms. Read more about our privacy policy.

Link to the Twitter content

The tweet has garnered quite a bit of attention and even reached Mike Ybarra, the president of Blizzard Entertainment. He only wrote two short words in response:

“No pirates.”

https://twitter.com/Qwik/status/1698517913672573052

These conclusions are drawn: So far, there have mainly been three major theories about how World of Warcraft can progress. A “South Sea” expansion, themed with pirates, was the first option.

The next theory is the visit to the previously unknown continent “Avaloren.” This is a continent or island on the other side of Azeroth. There could still be an old god here. This place is also interesting because the Titans have deliberately kept this place hidden and denied its existence, as they want to keep something secret from the mortals.

The third theory is that the great war between “Light and Void” is finally beginning. There were already hints of this in patch 10.1.5, as Iridikron allied with the Void, and he was seen alongside Xal’atath. This could also call other characters, such as Queen Azshara, into play.

However, there is also the theory that Mike Ybarra is indirectly lying a little. While it may not be about “pirates,” it could very well be about seafarers exploring the other side of Azeroth.

Starfield 2.0 actually exists, but raises more questions than it answers

Some see something completely different in Ybarra’s words. The fact that the Blizzard head responds to a tweet about players wanting to return to the “old areas” is seen by some as confirmation that exactly that will happen: a revamp of World of Warcraft, where many old areas will shine in new glory and the time since “Cataclysm” will finally progress.

Hints of such a major overhaul have existed for a while, as there are many revamped buildings of the old world in the game files, which have not yet been integrated into the game.

However, it will likely take a few weeks before we know for sure. The BlizzCon in early November will provide clarity on this, unless there are no promising and credible leaks before then.

Starfield: Get a strong starter armor without stress – you just need to pick it up

Maik Schneider 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Starfield forgoes an extensive gear system: helmet, suit, backpack, and some clothing underneath. How you can secure a hefty armor right from the start that you can pick up on the go is explained on MeinMMO.

The new sci-fi RPG Starfield provides you with better gear the longer you are in the game. Part of the great freedom in the Bethesda game is that you can get really strong items early on. You just have to be observant or adventurous enough.

This applies to legendary spaceships as well as strong gear. The next time you visit the Constellation lodge, you should take a close look at the cellar.

Start video

Bethesda RPG Starfield shows the first AI companion in the trailer – Vasco, a loyal robot for all occasions

Where can you find the gear? As soon as you receive the key to the lodge from the Constellation, leave the building. Turn around and enter the building again. Now you will see a door on the right that can easily be overlooked.

The door opens the way to the cellar. Here you will find workbenches and a Constellation mission terminal. Look around, collect useless junk as usual and after a while, you should discover the storage room where a suit has been set up behind a glass panel.

To pick the lock, you actually need the skill at “Master”. However, you can select the figure behind the glass wall on the upper edge at the front right and open the figure’s inventory. This allows you to get the suit even without lockpicking experience.

A TikTok shows you the way in the video

What does the gear provide? You get a backpack, a helmet, and a suit, all with “normal” rarity. So there are no perks or special effects on the items. It’s standard armor for the start, but the defense values are really strong:

Suit
- Physical: 120
- Energy: 136
- EM: 128
Helmet
- Physical: 66
- Energy: 64
- EM: 68
Backpack
- Physical: 66
- Energy: 64
- EM: 68

For the backpack, you might want to consider alternatives. Even though the stats are strong, the item does not improve your carrying capacity. The price might be too high – especially if you like to take a lot of junk with you.

Visually, the matching set also looks great. Since there is no transmog feature in Starfield, one should not underestimate the appearance.

It’s not quite certain whether the developers intended for you to get the suit without being a master locksmith. But this hurdle wouldn’t be too big anyway. So grab the strong, stylish piece and get even more good stuff.

These are the most played cards in FIFA 23 – A striker leads the ranking by a large margin

Thomas Dummer 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

At the end of FIFA 23, we take a look at the most popular cards in Ultimate Team. The first place for the most played player leaves his competitors far behind.

How is the ranking established? Futbin, one of the largest FIFA service sites, has published a ranking of the cards with the most games in FUT. The data results from the statistics of players who were traded on the transfer market.

After analyzing the statistics, Futbin.com presented a compilation of the most popular goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and strikers on its Instagram account. A French striker stood out among all other players.

Kylian Mbappé has nearly 100 million appearances in FUT

The winner of the ranking is the undisputed French top striker Kylian Mbappé, who is likely to break the 100 million mark in Ultimate Team in the days leading up to EA Sports FC 24.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Team Gullit | FIFA 23 & EAFC 24 (@theteamgullit)

As you can see from the post from futbin.com, Kylian Mbappé leaves his competitors far behind in the attack. In second place among the most played players is Liverpool’s defense chief Virgil Van Dijk. However, he has “only” completed 75 million games.

Rank 3 with around 55 million played matches goes to Cristiano Ronaldo, who will likely receive a hefty downgrade in the new FIFA successor FC 24.

A bit unexpectedly: In the ranking, we find neither superstar Lionel Messi nor the cover star of FC 24 and the overwhelmingly dominant player of last season, Erling Haaland.

However, among the most played players, there are one or two names that you might not necessarily expect in this ranking. Especially two French forward players can also boast an impressive number of completed matches.

Starfield: The best graphics settings for more FPS on PC

Martin Vollert 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The new space RPG Starfield is graphically beautiful, but also a demanding game. We show you the best graphics settings for a smooth gaming experience and high FPS.

Bethesda’s first role-playing title in space is on everyone’s lips. The game developer delivers a graphically very appealing game as usual. However, performance can be very low, especially on older graphics cards. We provide you with an overview of all graphics settings and go into detail on the most important points.

The display options for more FPS and performance at a glance

With the following settings, you can achieve optimal performance in Bethesda’s new title. You can play smoothly and have enough graphical details for an atmospheric experience in the game.

Where can you find the display options? You can access this menu via the main menu → there click on settings → select display here:

Fullscreen without borders: On
Window size: Resolution of your selected monitor
Select monitor: Only relevant if you are playing on different monitors
Dynamic screen resolution: On
Scaling of render resolution: 75%
Graphics preset: Custom
Shadow quality: Medium
Indirect lighting: Medium
Reflections: Low
Particle quality: Low
Volumetric lighting: Medium
Population density: Low
Motion blur: Off
GTAO quality (Global Illumination): Medium

Upscaling: FSR2
Sharpening: Standard
VRS: On
Film grain intensity: Off
Depth of field: Off

Starfield: New update finally brings FOV slider for the field of view, but many wishes of the community remain unfulfilled

von Martin Vollert

The most important settings in detail

Scaling of render resolution

Why not 100% resolution as standard? The preset value is 75%. Bethesda assumes that you activate Upscaling FSR2, so that AMD’s counterpart to Nvidia’s DLSS upscales the game without losing graphical details. Also check this tip from our colleague Benedikt Schlotmann, to avoid unnecessary performance loss.
Whether and when Bethesda integrates DLSS into Starfield is unclear at this time.

Shadow quality, volumetric lighting, GTAO quality, and contact shadows

These four settings have a particularly noticeable impact on your graphics performance in the game. Reduce the quality if you are not satisfied with the achieved FPS.

Population density

Many details on the screen challenge your hardware. The processor, in particular, is pushed to its limits in a densely populated game world. Set the value to low for better performance.

Motion blur

What is motion blur? The effect for a greater sense of speed. When moving quickly, the view blurs. The option is not popular with everyone. If in doubt, disable it and enjoy more performance.

VRS

The render technique relieves the calculation of shader units by your graphics card at the cost of slightly lower graphic quality. Therefore, turn on VRS for more FPS.

Why can the results be different? With these settings, you can noticeably improve performance in the game. Of course, it depends on your hardware. So feel free to try other quality levels to find a suitable gaming experience for you.

A final tip

Usually, Nvidia and AMD deliver updated graphics card drivers shortly before the release of new AAA titles. These bring not only the usual bug fixes but also quality and especially performance optimizations for current titles. Therefore, it is advisable to regularly update your graphics driver to the latest version.

Gronkh is concerned about gamescom: Would exclude himself and all other creators from the gaming fair

Sarah 4. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

In the latest YouTube video from Gronkh, he shares his concerns about the gaming fair gamescom and announces that he would no longer appear as a creator at the fair if it helps to solve a problem. What problem he sees and how he intends to solve it is explained to you by MeinMMO.

What is the video about? On September 3, Gronkh released a video titled “Too many influencers at gamescom?”, in which he addresses the issues surrounding gamescom 2023 and presents his proposed solutions.

Although he loves gamescom and wants to support its continuation, he is worried about the increasing number of visitors who are flocking to the fair mainly because of the influencers and buying up the tickets from real gamers. He sees this as a concerning development that is steering the fair in the wrong direction.

Learn more about Gronkh here:

Gronkh fears that gamescom could spiral downwards

What problem does Gronkh see? Gronkh points out that gamescom is designed as a gaming fair. However, in recent years the fair has attracted a growing number of influencers who have little to nothing to do with gaming.

Gronkh says that he has particularly noticed a multitude of TikTokers who have nothing to do with gaming. Creators seem to have seen MontanaBlack’s appearance in 2022 and now want to have “some cloud” as well.

More on the topic

Critics demand that MontanaBlack should never return to gamescom after appearing with 35 security guards – This is what he says about it himself

von Schuhmann

This development leads to the original booths of gaming publishers receiving less attention and publishers withdrawing from the fair.

As a result, the fair fills the gaps with booths from entertainment companies like Netflix, Disney, and TikTok: This makes the fair less attractive for people who want to see new games.

This creates a vicious circle in which the original target audience of the fair is lost.

Additionally, Gronkh has noticed the behavior of some visitors. He himself had a meet & greet during gamescom next to the creator booth of Red Bull. While his fans patiently waited in line, they played UNO together and sang songs to pass the time.

At the same time, Gronkh reported negative incidents at the neighboring booth, the “Red Bull Lounge,” where visitors threw objects against windows when no creators were visible.

He emphasized that security should have intervened, which did not happen. The incident in 2022 with MontanaBlack had already caused some people to rethink.

von Lydia

“Influencers away from gamescom”

What conclusion does Gronkh draw? To address this problem, Gronkh suggests that influencers should only appear as guests at gamescom in the future. However, he emphasizes his uncertainty about whether all influencers should be excluded or just some of them.

He sees cosplayers as a different category that should continue to be part of gamescom.

How does he want to solve this for himself? Gronkh presents an innovative solution to solve the problem for his own community. He plans to organize small events from next year onward, where visitors do not have to wait hours in the sun.

These events would take place around gamescom, so that people go to the fair not for him, but for the games.

A total of four small events per year are planned to take place in various regions of Germany to allow as many fans as possible to participate. Even now, there are many questions and critical voices in Gronkh’s chat regarding the implementation of his idea. However, he takes it with humor and emphasizes his serious goal: more time for his fans and more relaxed conversations.

However, it remains to be seen whether and how his events will take place. The future of gamescom and the role of influencers will continue to be a topic that moves the gaming community.

Netflix is crazy about lawyer series: But Lincoln Lawyer cannot surpass a certain British noblewoman

Jasmin Beverungen 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

In the United States, a lawyer series from 2011 is still so popular that it allows new productions from Netflix, like Lincoln Lawyer, to pass by. The series “Suits” has even broken its own record twice in a row.

Which series is being talked about? We are talking about Suits. The lawyer series is so popular according to Nielsen that even the Netflix series The Lincoln Lawyer from 2022 cannot surpass it. Even MeinMMO author Dariusz Müller counts Suits among his favorites, as he explains in an article about Shameless.

In the USA, the series has even broken its own record. In the week from July 3 to July 9, 2023, Americans spent a total of 3.7 billion minutes watching Suits. This is an increase of about 17 percent compared to the previous week, when the series first broke its record with 3.1 billion minutes.

The figures apply to both Netflix and the streaming service Peacock. On Netflix, the series has been available in the USA only since summer 2023, which may explain its great popularity. According to the tracking site for viewer numbers, Season 1 was watched the most.

This likely means that another record could be waiting if fans in the USA catch up with the later seasons. Suits consists of 9 seasons.

The American series Shameless has surpassed MeinMMO author Dariusz Müller’s favorite Suits. In the trailer for the series, you might discover what fascinates him about it:

Start video

Shameless – S01 Teaser Trailer (English)

What is Suits about? The protagonist Michael “Mike” Ross wants to get money for his sick grandmother through an illegal drug deal. But by a stupid coincidence, he suddenly finds himself in a job interview at a law firm.

There, his talent as a lawyer is recognized, and top lawyer Harvey Specter hires him. Throughout the nine seasons, Mike repeatedly finds himself in tricky situations because his past and his lack of legal training create problems.

In the series, Meghan Markle also appears until Season 7. Her reason for leaving was her engagement to Prince Harry. After her wedding, Meghan Markle now holds the title Duchess of Sussex and is a member of the British royal family.

Suits leaves other lawyer series behind

Although Suits is from 2011, it still leaves series like The Lincoln Lawyer and Better Call Saul behind. Better Call Saul started in 2015 in the USA, while The Lincoln Lawyer only began in 2022. Nevertheless, the two series cannot compete with the competition.

In Germany, the trend is actually the opposite. Here, Suits, according to Flixpatrol, only ranks in the 50s, while The Lincoln Lawyer secures a spot in the top 10 at number 7.

The fact that Suits has broken its own record already hints at where the series stands in the USA: In the United States, Suits is ranked number 1 this year. The Lincoln Lawyer, on the other hand, is comfortably sitting at number 6.

Pokémon GO: First Trainer solves research on the 2nd Master Ball, draws important insight

Franzi Korittke 4. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

In Pokémon GO you can currently complete a limited-time research to secure another Master Ball. A trainer has now gained an important insight about this. We have summarized what it is here on MeinMMO.

What research is it about? At the start of the new season Reichlich Abenteuer, Niantic introduced a new research format in Pokémon GO. Through a so-called Limited Research you should be able to obtain rare items.

The current research, which you can complete until November 21, 2023, includes, among other things, a second Master Ball. The tasks are relatively extensive and time-consuming, so most trainers will take a while to complete them. However, one trainer finished the tasks in just a few hours and now shares an important insight.

You can see a preview of what else awaits you in the new season in the following video:

Start video

Trainer reveals how many Master Balls you can have

What insight was gained? On Friday, September 1, 2023, at 10:00 AM the new Limited Research Master Ball started, which will stretch over the entire season. So there’s actually plenty of time to complete the tasks at a leisurely pace. However, a Japanese trainer obviously saw it differently and completed the research in just a few hours.

The content creator LeekDuck shared on Saturday via his X account (formerly Twitter) that the trainer lance918yuu completed all tasks of the research in a short time and thus also answered an important question from the community.

Although he already had a Master Ball in his item bag, he was still able to secure the second one. He shares a corresponding video of the Japanese player in which you can see the redemption of the research as well as the two Master Balls in the item bag:

Link to the Twitter content

Why is this so important? Normally, you can collect most items in Pokémon GO in larger quantities in your item bag. However, there has always been the indication from the developers about how rare the Master Ball is. After all, you secure a guaranteed catch with it.

For this reason, you could recently read on Niantic’s help page that you can only hold one Master Ball in your storage. This caused quite a stir on social networks, like in the Reddit post by mtdrunk247, as players had concerns that they would have to use their Master Ball mindlessly to get the next one.

This note has since been adjusted on Niantic’s page and the sentence Please note that you can only keep one Master Ball in your bag has been removed. Therefore, it probably is not a mistake, and you can collect both Master Balls in your item bag.

Pokémon GO: Use Master Ball – It’s worth it for these monsters

von Franzi Korittke

Trainers amazed: Someone did this in 30 hours?!

Information brings relief: In the community, the realization that you can have two Master Balls brings relief to many players. Even though many trainers wished for an official statement from the developers, they are pleased with this information.

For instance, Reddit user iMiind wrote in the comments (via reddit.com): Thank you, someone finally took the work off Niantic to communicate this.

Community celebrates the trainer’s achievement: But the insight is not the only thing that excites the trainers. Many can hardly believe how quickly a player solved the extensive tasks of the limited research.

They find particularly impressive the 50 kilometers walked, 30 eggs hatched, as well as the 60 raids won, all of which the trainer lance918yuu must have completed in less than 2 days to finish the research.

These are tasks that players typically struggle with for a while. As you can read in the comments on Reddit:

drfrink85: Oh my God, someone did this in 30 hours?!

mormaq: The incredible thing is the 50 km and perhaps the simultaneous completion of 1,000 catches and 60 raids.

ebby-pan: The 30 eggs are worse than the 50 km, unless you spend a lot of money on Super Incubators.

PokeballSoHard: 150 research tasks and 60 raids in 2 days is a Herculean task.

„Starfield has saved my life and my family’s life“: Fan reports on his üblen Early-Access start

Maik Schneider 4. September 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Because the new SciFi RPG Starfield kept a player awake for a long time, he was able to save his family from a terrible accident.

The discussion platform Reddit often provides exciting insights into the life of the community. Recently, a player shared that he has been sober due to the new RPG and no longer drinks alcohol (the colleagues at GameStar reported).

Another story comes from user “tidyckilla”. He shared with the community how Starfield saved his life and that of his small family because he was sitting in front of the PC late at night during early access.

Fan stays up late and saves his small family

What happened? tidyckilla explains that he has been waiting forever for the release of Starfield. According to him, he has had his eye on the game since the first rumors of a trademark registration. He thinks it must have been 2015 or 2016.

Accordingly, his hype was intense. At the early access release on the evening of October 31, the plan was to stay up long and explore the new world with shining eyes.

Around 2:30 AM, tidyckilla was distracted by a loud bang. He immediately suspected that something had exploded. When he checked what was going on, he opened the apartment door and already saw the flames. There was a fire in the neighbor’s apartment one floor down.

He stomped into the bedroom, grabbed his wife and the cat. tidyckilla and his family suffered minor burns. The user thinks they would likely have died from smoke inhalation if he hadn’t been playing the new Starfield late into the night.

tidyckilla posted a picture of the fire:

How did the fire start? The user has not been able to answer this with certainty so far. His suspicion: The lady below him in the building was a smoker and used oxygen tanks. tidyckilla believes the explosion he heard was from the tanks. Unfortunately, the lady passed away.

However, tidyckilla cannot specify an exact cause for the fire.

What do other users say about this? The mood in the thread is somewhat subdued. Many users wish tidyckilla all the best and are happy for him that he and his family nearly emerged unscathed from the flames.

The other part, typically Reddit, is working through innuendos and memes. The comment with the most upvotes is, of course (via reddit.com): “Well, that settles it: Staying up late and playing video games is the right move.”

World Record: Speedrunner completes Baldur’s Gate 3 in 4 minutes by putting Shadowheart in a box

Cortyn 4. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

Baldur’s Gate 3 can be completed in under 5 minutes. A player proves how absurd this is – and how badly Shadowheart is affected.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is not only one of the best role-playing games in recent years, but also one of the most extensive. Finishing the game is sure to take new players about 100 hours of gameplay – those who want to see everything will need even longer. So it sounds almost absurd when you read that some can complete the game in just a few minutes.

The current record from start to finish stands at a crazy 4 minutes and 15 seconds – and everything about it is “morally wrong.”

Spoiler warning: This article discusses one of the endings of Baldur’s Gate 3 and the story of Gale.

Start video

5 helpful tips for Baldur’s Gate 3

YouTuber Mae shows in his video how he completed Baldur’s Gate 3 in 4 minutes and 15 seconds. To achieve this, he does not play with a self-created character, but takes on the role of the Origin character Gale. He is a wizard and therefore has access to some special spells that are particularly suitable for a speedrun.

Directly after starting, Mae hops around the map as Gale, finishing the Nautiloid in just seconds, without even fighting once. This strategy continues. Within just a few minutes, the credits are already flashing across the screen.

How does it work? The trick is a combination of two spells, namely “Feather Fall” and “Enhance Leap.” The first spell completely prevents fall damage by making the character lighter. The second spell triples the character’s jump range.

In combination, these two spells allow extreme jumping during their duration, even jumping through (or over) some walls: jumps that were not intended by the developers. This allows Gale to jump from the second room of the Nautiloid directly to the “final battle” and trigger the cutscene for the crash on the beach in just one more jump.

Gale continues jumping across the entire map, skipping various events and battles to reach the mountain pass. Just before transitioning to the next map, Shadowheart joins his group – this is essential for the player to come into contact with the artifact that is so important to the story.

In the second area, Gale then kills Shadowheart, puts her in a box, and burns her, which shortly thereafter triggers the final scene of Act 2. Here, Gale can activate the explosion of his body, which triggers a “bad ending” – but one that counts as a full ending and even earns the achievement for completing the game.

Although Baldur’s Gate 3 is really large, a lot of content did not make it into the finished game.

What does that have to do with Shadowheart? The crucial trick in Act 2 is difficult to recognize at first glance but is necessary to reach the final cutscene.

The exploited mechanic is the fact that party members can trigger cutscenes – even if they are a corpse. Gale utilizes this by first killing Shadowheart, then placing her corpse in a box. Subsequently, he sets the box on fire and throws it across the entire map. It ends up at the end of Act 2 and breaks. Since Shadowheart’s corpse is now there, it triggers the corresponding cutscene. However, since Shadowheart is dead, Gale is instead “pulled into the conversation.”

This in turn allows Gale to detonate his bomb, killing himself and all enemies. This triggers the “bad ending.”

This “mechanic” has now been referred to in speedrunning circles as “Shadowboxing” – i.e., locking the dead Shadowheart in a box.

Whether one sees this as a “real” speedrun is, of course, up to each individual to decide. However, it does meet the criteria of an “Any%” run. In this case, the goal is simply to reach a valid ending of the game as quickly as possible – regardless of the means used.

In any case, it’s impressive to see what is possible in Baldur’s Gate 3 and especially how fast.

New MMORPG on Steam suddenly no longer relies on crypto: “No real gamer would have played our old title”

Alexander Leitsch 4. September 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

Abyss Online is a new sandbox MMORPG that focuses on PvP and player-modifiable quests. After the announcement, some users on Reddit noticed that it seems to be a rebranding of the game MetaGates, which focused on cryptocurrencies and NFTs. Now the CEO responds to the allegations.

What is the game about? Abyss Online was officially announced on August 29 and initially sounded unremarkable:

A new sandbox MMORPG from a small indie team.
PvP in the open world and in arenas in 1v1 and 3v3.
A rather mediocre trailer.
Gold selling for real money.
The only interesting aspect was the modification of quests. Players should be able to give a written answer to an AI in the main story, which will slightly adjust the course of the story.

However, the development story is really exciting. Originally, Abyss Online was supposed to focus on NFTs and cryptocurrencies. But after careful consideration, the studio concluded that this content is not good for players. And it will also not be pay-to-win.

You can watch the trailer here:

Start video

Abyss Online – Gameplay Trailer

Autoplay

“There are too many fraudsters in crypto-gaming”

What does the CEO say about NFTs? Nick Liverman is the CEO of the studio and stated in an interview with the colleagues at MMOBomb that Abyss Online was originally called MetaGates and focused on cryptocurrency.

However, the developers saw it more as a means to create a marketplace similar to that in CS:GO. But they have since decided against it:

Everything we sold was similar to what was included in founder’s packs of every major MMO. We sold founder’s packs and game items over the blockchain and thought, “Blockchain really gives power to players.” The team hoped that NFTs would lead to the creation of a new generation of CS:GO shops where creators could sell items they made in our game.

The unfortunate reality of the NFT community is that there are no viable solutions for operating a game with NFTs. The technology is not there and will likely be delayed indefinitely due to the poor culture in the crypto industry.

Another main reason for the removal was the distrust and skepticism towards crypto and crypto-gaming. There have been so many scams and cash grabs that it’s understandable. We realized that no real gamer would want to play a crypto game, and for our team, players always come first. Our only goal is to develop a great game that people will want to play for many years to come.

By the way, not everyone shares Liverman’s opinion. Developer legend Richard Garriott – creator of Ultima Online – is currently working on a new NFT MMORPG.

What will happen to the content of MetaGates? Since both games are based on the same foundations, the previous development time was not in vain.

Anyone who invested in the old game is supposed to receive comparable rewards in the new game. They are in close contact with the supporters who want to stay involved with the new MMORPG.

Poor decisions by developers and PR

Why wasn’t the rebranding communicated immediately? During the interview, Liverman explains that the switch from MetaGates to Abyss Online was simply omitted by the PR agency. They probably saw the development story as too negative. However, the CEO emphasizes that they have completely distanced themselves from crypto.

What is the issue with the sale of gold? Here too, there were major communication problems. The gold sold in founder’s packs is not an in-game currency, but the name of the real money currency.

Here Liverman acknowledges that the name was poorly chosen. However, Abyss Online is definitely supposed to be free of pay-to-win.

What else was revealed in the interview?

Abyss Online will be buy-to-play
There should be the first test events on Steam in the coming weeks.
The developers communicate a lot with the community in their Discord and want to incorporate feedback into the MMORPG.

What do you think about Abyss Online? And are NFTs and cryptocurrencies actually content that would immediately put off a “real gamer”?

WoW: The next addon will probably be about pirates – These hints indicate it

The in-game shop of World of Warcraft might have revealed the next addon. Because the clues fit together well.

Update 09:15 AM: In the meantime, Mike Ybarra has spoken up and said on Twitter that the next addon will not revolve around pirates. So it remains exciting.

Original report: In about two months we will know the name of the next expansion of World of Warcraft – but even now there are plenty of supposed leaks and rumors. However, the most convincing clues so far come from Blizzard and the WoW shop. Because they are once again selling suspicious offers that fit wonderfully into the past.

What is so suspicious? In the World of Warcraft shop, there are repeatedly various package offers that later turned out to be suspiciously often associated with the respective next expansion. Currently, there is a package in the shop, the so-called “Seafarer’s package”, which brings not only a creepy ship but also a parrot and two other pets.

The theory is now: This is a hint that the next expansion will revolve around pirates and seafarers.

Have there been these clues before? If you look at the past of various mounts and offers, you have to clearly say: Yes, it has been the case before. For example, Blizzard suddenly had a package offering a few months before the announcement of the “Dragonflight” expansion, where you could buy numerous dragon mounts and pets at a discounted price.

Also, the “Sylverian Dreamer”, which was available for purchase prior to Shadowlands, fit into this pattern. It was a flying mount that was later also found in the Ardenweald of Shadowlands.

The same theory now exists with the “Wonderful Schnauzer”. This is a special mount that is currently available for a 6-month subscription. The model of the mount is a large fish that has not been used in this form anywhere in WoW before. It is therefore very likely that the fish is a model that will also appear in the next expansion – and that simply indicates an underwater or island area.
