Director of Deadpool 3 explains why he needed an ‘army of the nerdiest nerds’ for Wolverine

Jasmin Beverungen Jasmin Beverungen Reading time 2 minutes

Deadpool 3 is expected to hit theaters worldwide in 2024. Alongside Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman will also appear in the film. He will be seen in the role of Wolverine. As director Shawn Levy states, the team has put a lot of effort into one detail about Wolverine.

What detail is that? Levy explains in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that Wolverine’s costume will play a very special role. He explains that it took two decades for Wolverine to be seen in a film alongside Deadpool.

Furthermore, he does not know if this will be the last chance to see Wolverine in a film.

Therefore, the team wanted to make a special effort to depict the iconic yellow and blue outfit as accurately as possible on screen. Wolverine wore the costume that will now be seen in the film in the comics and the 1990s animated series.

In initial leaked images, the outfit that Wolverine will wear in Deadpool 3 has already been seen. Except for the blue underwear that Wolverine usually wears, the team has apparently succeeded perfectly with the outfit.

You can view the leaked image for example on the Twitter or X account of DiscussingFilm:

How did the team ensure the accurate outfit? Levy explains that “multiple, multiple, multiple fittings” were needed to guarantee the perfect outfit. He says that this perfection was only possible through the Marvel team:

It also helps that I’m making the film in the MCU, so I have access to an army of the nerdiest nerds there are for a Marvel project.

He also said that Reynolds wanted the film to feel grounded and not like a mishmash. Apparently, Reynolds is taking a more grounded approach to the film this time, as for Deadpool 2 he wanted to push through a crazy plot, which involved a red chair.

Therefore, many scenes were shot in the same locations. Only then could the photo of Wolverine actor Jackman be taken and made public. But Levy is pleased that the reaction to the outfit was “happily positive”.

Previously, Wolverine was only seen in a deleted scene from The Wolverine (2013) in a comic costume. In the scene, Wolverine received a light brown costume from Mariko Yashida as a farewell gift.

In X-Men: Days of Future Past, there were several allusions to the comic version in the battle suit, but only in a weak form. In Deadpool 3, it will probably be the first time that Wolverine’s costume adheres so closely to the comic template.

MeinMMO author Niko Hernes will probably hope that Deadpool 3 will have the same detail as Thor: Love and Thunder: Of all things, Thor: Love and Thunder has what I’m missing in Marvel movies

Expert explains why all NPCs in Starfield have the smile of a liar

Dariusz Müller Dariusz Müller Reading time 2 minutes

If you find the smiles of NPCs in Starfield creepy, then according to an expert, an unused muscle in the face is mainly to blame.

Who is the expert?

  • Delaney King is a character artist with over 24 years of professional experience
  • In the past, King has worked on games like Dragon Age: Origins, God of War: Chains of Olympus, and Civilization.
  • Character artists create, for example, the visual elements of figures, vehicles, and environments in video games.
Start video

NPCs in Starfield do not have a natural smile

What does the expert say about the NPCs in Starfield? In a thread on Twitter, King explains that the NPCs in Starfield do not use the orbicularis oculi muscle. This muscle needs to contract when smiling. A ‘real’ smile that engages the ring muscles is called a Duchenne smile and looks more natural.

King further explains that a smile without the use of the orbicularis oculi muscle results in a so-called fake or liar smile.

https://twitter.com/delaneykingrox/status/1700762981095932101

She also says that during a smile, the cheekbones should lift so that it does not look like the person is actively resisting the smile. Similarly, the zygomatic muscle needs to pull the corners of the mouth up, which is not the case with the Adoring Fan in Starfield, for example.

While King does not know which method Bethesda uses to create faces, she believes it requires manual optimization to produce a natural smile.

She perceives movement in the orbicularis oculi muscle and crow’s feet, but the movements are not coordinated with the mouth.

In addition to the creepy smile, King also criticizes a specific look of the NPCs, where they reveal the white of the eye above the iris. According to King, this part is normally covered by the upper eyelid when people roll their eyes.

An exception would be fight or flight reactions. In such cases, humans open their eyes wide to let in more light because they are scared or anticipating a fight.

The robot Vasco has no problem with his smile or his eyes and is also quite witty:

Former WoW Developer Explains Why His New MMORPG Will Be So Much Better: “Uncompromisingly Focused on Multiplayer”

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

Greg “Ghostcrawler” Street worked at Blizzard from 2008 to 2013 and most recently led the development of the LoL MMORPG at Riot Games. In April of this year, he founded his own studio and is working on a new MMO there. It aims to focus on multiplayer content. Single-player fans should look for another title, he says.

What kind of game will this be? So far, there are only a few details. Ghostcrawler has repeatedly emphasized on Twitter that he wants to create an MMORPG for fans of the genre and that he can listen well to players. He didn’t want to change the genre, but to do everything right.

In a new series of tweets, he explains where the problems of the genre lie and how he plans to solve them:

  • Current MMORPG players are very focused on getting the most out of themselves. The focus is on “Broken Builds, efficiency, and minimal risks.” This sometimes annoys other players, as they are seen as a risk.
  • “Suboptimal” is the worst thing that can happen in an MMO.
  • Other games push players into the background with more solo content in open world or automated matchmaking.

His MMORPG, however, is supposed to be different. It will focus “uncompromisingly on multiplayer” and “other players” are to be the innovation. Those who want a single-player game should play one of the many out there and not rely on an MMO, says Street.

“PvP tells good stories, but we don’t only focus on that”

What does this mean for the content? Basically, Ghostcrawler explains that PvP tells good stories. This is also the reason why titles like LoL can captivate players for thousands of hours. Every match is somehow different. In role-playing games, however, many things tend to play out similarly.

However, his game is not supposed to rely solely on PvP.

This is a game where other players contribute a large part of the content and innovations. (Not because we have a massive plan for user-generated content, and not because the game is only about PvP).

We will build it with a pulled-back curtain, so that you can all help us hammer it out before the game goes live and everything is monetized.

However, the developer did not reveal how exactly players will create the content.

How will these tests be conducted? A key philosophy is that the new MMO should be developed with the players. What sounds a bit like Early Access or Pre-Alpha tests is supposed to be different.

So you won’t have to pay anything to participate in the tests. Players who don’t like what they see will leave after a while. Those who stay and give a lot of feedback will be able to significantly influence development:

There will be a lot of philosophy. There will be a lot of theory about game design and goal setting. Of course, there will also be play tests. I want to emphasize again that not all of you will enjoy this experience.

But some of you will, and in the end, we will stand with a game design that is battle-tested in a way that most games are not.

What else does Street say? As part of the thread, he admits to being significantly involved in the development of the Dungeon Finders from WoW. So he is also partly to blame for the more unsocial content in MMORPGs.

Furthermore, the game is set to receive a code name later this year, so that it won’t always have to be referred to as “the MMO”.

What do you think about Ghostcrawler’s statements? Do MMORPGs need to focus more on other players again?

Another game that the developer has long been involved with was the LoL MMORPG. Recently, the head of Riot Games spoke up:

The head of Riot says about the new LoL MMORPG: “If I were a game developer, I wouldn’t stake my career on this project”

EA Sports FC 24 shows a heavy new gold card that will really get on your nerves

Julian Schröder Julian Schröder Reading time 2 minutes

For the FIFA successor EA Sports FC 24, official ratings are finally known and a card looks really dangerous. We will introduce it to you.

Finally, EA has released detailed values for the players in EA Sports FC 24 Ultimate Team. We now officially know the 24 best gold cards of the game and must note that one card stands out particularly.

This card is about: We are talking about the brand new card of the Spaniard Alexia Putellas, who plays in midfield for the women of FC Barcelona and recently became world champion. This card will be integrated into Ultimate Team of FC 24, as in the upcoming edition women will also be playable in Ultimate Team.

And what a luck it is, because Putellas’ card looks phenomenal and shares the top rating of 91 with Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé and Kevin De Bruyne.

Everything you need to know about the FIFA successor EA Sports FC 24 can be found here:

EA Sports FC 24 – Everything we know about release, leagues, logo, price, content

Putellas could dominate Ultimate Team

What makes the card so good: When looking at the detailed stats of the Putellas card, one realizes that it has exceptionally strong values. It scores with a pace of 82, which is quite high for a midfielder. In addition, it has a fantastic shooting value of 90, is outstanding with 91 in passing, and has 92 dribbling stats that are at Mbappé’s level.

But that’s not all, because Putellas offers something that none of the cards in the top 10 offer: the extremely valuable combination of 5-star skills and 5-star weak foot. This means that the Spaniard is not only incredibly tricky but also ambidextrous.

In addition, there are three playstyles that further enhance the abilities of the card. Here’s what they do:

  • Incisive Pass – PlayStyle: Flat passes are faster and do not affect how well the recipient can accept it.
  • Finesse Shot – PlayStyle:  Finesse shots are faster, have extra curve, and improved accuracy.
  • First Touch Control – PlayStyle: Minimal chances of errors in ball reception. Can transition into dribbling faster, with more ball control.

An overview of all playstyles can be found here.

Basically, Putellas is on paper a perfect card for midfield in FC 24 Ultimate Team. It offers all the attributes that an offensively oriented CM card needs. It is fast, can shoot, dribble, trick, and also pass excellently. Opponents with Putellas in the team should be quite annoying.

But many may hopefully not be at the beginning because the card will likely be extremely expensive. Such values paired with 5-star skill moves and 5-star weak foot are incredibly rare, especially at the start where there are hardly any special cards.

What do you think of the new card of Putellas? Would you be happy to have her in your team? Feel free to let us know in the comments!

A developer explains why Starfield supposedly runs poorly on your PC and frustrates your graphics card

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 2 minutes

Optimization is a major point of contention among players in Starfield. A developer now allegedly shows why Starfield is performing poorly and proposes a fix.

After the official release of Starfield, the optimization of the game remains a significant topic. The comment from the head of Starfield that it is due to players’ hardware that the game is not running well has only fueled dissatisfaction further. Although the system requirements for Starfield are demanding, other games with similarly high requirements perform much better.

Now a Vulkan developer has spoken up and released a fix. He explains why Starfield runs so poorly on PCs.

Faulty software library causes problems in Starfield

What is behind the problems? The Vkd3d developer Hans-Kristian Arntzen explains on github that various issues are behind the crashes and performance problems of Starfield.

Simply put, Starfield utilizes a library called “Vkd3d”. Many games use this to implement the “Direct3D 12” API on Vulkan. In his post on github, the developer points out that Starfield has a number of inefficient practices that can lead to performance issues. He identifies two major problems.

The first problem: Starfield allegedly misallocates memory. The processor is responsible for memory management. Each CPU has a fixed-length virtual memory. However, Starfield assigns memory to the processor without regard to size. This is said to be the cause of most crashes and issues. Because when there is an error or instability, the game simply crashes.

The second problem: Starfield uses a Vkd3d function called ExecuteIndirect to give instructions to the GPU. But instead of clear instructions, there are only vague ones, causing the graphics card to work significantly harder. The GPU has to assess and evaluate the instructions itself.

The colleagues from Dualshockers compare this to a driver receiving contradictory instructions from his passenger. And the driver has to decide which turn to take at the next intersection on his own.

Furthermore, Starfield does not bundle these ExecuteIndirect commands, but rather overwhelms the GPU with them. This further increases the load on your graphics card.

von Benedikt Schlotmann
Forget the Steam Machine: Players are waiting for another device from Valve and it could sell like hot cakes
von Benedikt Schlotmann

Developer’s fix reduces the load on your graphics card in Starfield

What has the developer done? The Vulkan developer has released a solution for this problem. In his solution, all ExecuteIndirect commands are evaluated, and it is determined whether they even need to be processed.

This saves your graphics card a lot of work. Additionally, the requests to your graphics card are bundled with the fix and no longer sent individually, which also reduces the load.

What comes next? Whether Bethesda will implement the developer’s fix into their game remains questionable. On reddit, the performance of Starfield continues to be a huge topic. Some are also wondering how such poor programming could make it into a triple-A title.

Nevertheless, Starfield is considered the most stable Bethesda game by experts so far, after previous games had often been heavily buggy at release. Many players are still hopeful that Starfield will perform significantly better on PC in the future. Many players in the community are currently expressing their dissatisfaction with the performance of Starfield.

New MMORPG on Steam wants to bring you the feeling of the good old days – Check out the trailer

Linda Knabe Linda Knabe Reading time 2 minutes

Trimurti Online is an MMORPG that is announced on Steam and aims to take you into an oriental fantasy world. You will learn how the developers want to evoke a nostalgic feeling with their game, but why you might need to be cautious about it.

What is Trimurti Online? This MMORPG was announced on Steam and is expected to release in February 2024. The game promises not only to be free-to-play but also to offer many classic features one would expect from an MMO:

  • A comprehensive story
  • Solo and multiplayer quests
  • Various dungeons
  • Guild battles & boss fights
  • PvP arenas

In addition to these features, you can apparently expect plenty of opportunities to develop a character that perfectly fits you. With different classes, fully customizable avatars, or a flexible skill tree, you can shape your character.

What the developers promise is a game that is allegedly developed in Unreal Engine 5, but is intentionally designed to remind you of the graphics from PS2 games, allowing you to relive the feeling of old MMORPGs.

Before we reveal more about the game, here is the cinematic trailer for you:

Trimurti Online Trailer

Trailer looks like it was created with AI

Why you should take a closer look at the game: If you stumble upon this trailer on Youtube and don’t pay attention to the date, you might almost believe you’ve found a forgotten game from the PS2 era.

However, many might have a different thought creeping in, suggesting that you should definitely look a little closer and be cautious about Trimurti Online.

The trailer gives clear hints of creation by AI. If you look at the faces of the characters, they are often unrecognizable or completely distorted, seeming to lag behind the entire video. The eye areas of the characters are also suspicious – those who have created videos or images with AI will recognize the typical errors here.

Whether this is truly due to the use of AI or simply poor programming cannot be definitively stated at this time.

That the comments under the trailer on Youtube are completely disabled is also alarming.

More Red Flags to look for

If you’ve become curious after the trailer and want to find out more about the legitimacy of the game, you will encounter even more Red Flags:

  • None of the videos on the official Youtube channel show the aforementioned features
  • There is no website for the game
  • The comments under all videos are disabled
  • The Trimurti stress test teaser (via Youtube) is merely a camera sweep through a lifeless area and shows none of the features being promoted

It is also suspicious that the release is supposed to be in February 2024 – however, there is surprisingly little material showcasing the promised features. This is rather unusual for MMORPGs.

Although it is unclear whether all this is evidence of a scam, or simply an inexperienced developer with a low budget, you should definitely be cautious if you want to continue engaging with the game after these hints.

What do you think about the trailer and the concerns we’ve raised in this article? Do you think Trimurti Online is a scam or not? Feel free to discuss!

7-year-old spends 1000 € in a mobile game in 3 days, EA wants to keep the money – parents are outraged

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

A family in Norway is horrified: To keep their 7-year-old son calm during a boring drive, the parents gave the boy his mother’s phone to play the game “FIFA Mobile”. However, the little one spent €1,000 in 3 days and bought strong players with it. When the parents requested the money back from the company behind the game, they found understanding from EA, but the money was gone.

How did the situation arise?

  • In mid-August, a Norwegian couple drove with their 7-year-old son to a zoo near Kristiansand, as TV2 reports.
  • To keep their son occupied during the boring drive, the parents gave him his mother’s phone with the FIFA Mobile soccer game: According to the Apple Store, the game has an age recommendation of “from 4 years”, and on Google Play, it has an “Everyone” rating.
  • The boy was happy, occupied himself in the back seat with the smartphone and said: “I now have a better team than dad” – the parents had no idea what was happening.

As can be seen in a screenshot, the boy had treated himself to special cards from top players like Casillas, Lahm, or C. Ronaldo.

What are booster packs in FIFA?
– In a mode in FIFA, you can assemble a team with virtual players.
– These players are represented by cards that depict real football players.
– Good players in real life are also strong in the game.
– You can acquire the cards through “booster packs”. These are loot boxes containing randomly selected cards.

Mother wants to get the money back, hits a wall

How did the parents react? Especially the mother was in shock. She is quoted as saying, “I have never been so angry”, because the money was actually intended to pave a path.

Attempts to retrieve the money through Google Play or EA failed. EA showed cooperation and said: Everything will work out, but nothing happened in the matter.

As the angry mother continued to push for answers, she finally received the response: EA is sorry, but a refund of the money is impossible.

How did it end? It was only when the TV2 website, which had learned of the story, intervened and specifically inquired at EA that the problem was resolved within days: Suddenly, a refund was possible after all.

TV 2 is the largest commercial television channel in Norway. The site TV2.no is the website of the broadcaster.

The mother said they checked their account every 15 minutes to see if the money was back, but it just didn’t come. At around 5 AM, she woke up and the money was in the account.

It felt like she had won €1,000, she says. Now they want to pave the path and buy a football and football shoes for their son.

Then he could be outside playing football instead of sitting inside and gaming.

EA’s statement places responsibility on the parents

This is what EA says: In a statement to TV2 a few days after the incident, EA strongly recommends that the parents implement a robust access control, which should apply to all games and devices that children have access to, including mobile platforms.

If there are options in games to make in-game purchases, this is clearly labeled. Parents can find out more.

EA states that they understand that children can make unauthorized purchases and when this happens for the first time, EA’s teams work to resolve the problem, refund the money, and assist parents in establishing control to prevent it from happening again.

Why this did not happen immediately in the case of the Norwegian family was left unanswered by EA.

EA has long been criticized for their loot boxes:

“Curse you!” – WoW Classic HC players die to opponents that are far too strong

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

The most vicious deaths in WoW Classic HC are those you don’t expect. There are mean monsters that apparently exist just for this purpose.

Anyone trying to level a character on the official servers of WoW Classic Hardcore knows roughly what they’re getting into. After all, it’s a long journey and a single mistake can cause the beloved character to die and be lost forever.

Most people understand: One must play carefully and think about each attack on an enemy at least three times. Yet, there are some creatures in Azeroth that can quickly make short work of you – because they don’t seem to fit the difficulty of the area.

What happened in WoW Classic HC? In the WoW Classic subreddit, Jdmcdona warns fellow players about a creature he encountered in the Badlands.

I don’t know which crazy idiot came up with the level scaling for the quest journeys, but as far as I’m concerned, he can sit on a cactus!!!

If you’re running through the Badlands (which you should do at level 35?), there’s a powerful skull buzzard (level 55) amid some level 35 mobs, and it has a MASSIVE aggro radius.

It will charge at you from ANY DISTANCE, it will resist your fear, it will slow you down, it will hit you with crushing blows, and YOU WILL DIE.

Screw the buzzard, screw the Blizzard employee who put him here, and screw me for thinking I could quickly grab a flight point before going to bed. It was over before I even realized he was coming for me. Being 4-7 levels above the actual area didn’t help me much.

Sincerely, Majick – Level 43, Shadow Priest

This post is about Zaricotl, whom you can encounter in the Badlands. He is actually about 15-20 levels above the difficulty of the area, and in retrospect, it almost seems like he was created just for WoW Classic Hardcore.

Because when Zaricotl has killed a player, he emits a special emote:

“Zaricotl seems much calmer now after having eaten the remains of [Character].”

After that, Zaricotl becomes neutral for a while and does not attack on his own.

This emote was already there back in the “Vanilla” days – so it’s not an unexpected addition for WoW Classic HC.

Zaricotl has already claimed several hardcore characters. Image source: wowhead

Players warn of more elite mobs: The post mentions several other monsters that pose a special threat during the leveling experience.

  • In Silverpine Forest, for example, there are the notorious “Sons of Arugal” – some elite worgen that you only recognize when it’s already too late.
  • In Duskwood, on the other hand, there is the infamous “Stitches” (“Little”) who seeks his way to the place “Darkshire” as soon as someone triggers his quest – occasionally even leading to everything in the supposedly safe inn being killed.
  • Elite foes like the nasty Mor’Ladim in the cemetery can also cause a quick, unexpected death.
  • The Scarlet Courier in the Eastern Plaguelands also comes with a whole escort.

Is this intentional? Yes. In classic World of Warcraft and also in expansions like “The Burning Crusade” or “Wrath of the Lich King,” there are always enemies that are significantly above the level of the area they are in. However, while known dangers like the traumatic demon hunter are huge and announce themselves from a distance, classic WoW also contains some tough elite creatures whose extremely high level isn’t immediately apparent.

On one hand, it can be devastating to lose your beloved character to such an exaggeratedly strong mob. On the other hand, that’s exactly the experience you signed up for when playing World of Warcraft Classic Hardcore.

Has such a mob also ended your life in WoW Classic Hardcore prematurely?

Soon there will even be an even tougher “Classic” – Because WoW is dropping the “MMO” in “MMORPG” and making it a solo game.

Many are complaining about Diablo 4 – Players with hundreds of hours explain what it does well

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

Right now, there is a lot of criticism regarding Diablo 4. We have looked at what players say who still feel good after hundreds of hours.

What’s going on with Diablo 4? The start of Season 2 on October 17 is still quite a while away. People are eagerly looking forward to the beginning of the section, as the mood is not rosy right now. Especially the endgame is causing players trouble – The fact that there is little to do there is just one of the criticisms.

But how does the other faction feel? We show you what players say who like Diablo 4.

“Why should I complain?!”

What players are saying: On reddit, user Redtex started a thread that has already collected over 600 comments. He writes in the title, “I have played Diablo 4 continuously for about 300 hours and believe it is worth its price for that reason alone.”

He explains in his post that the opinion he holds may be unpopular. But he has had fun for months. “80 [dollars], to be entertained every day for months? I didn’t expect to be entertained for that price for a lifetime, and I can still play it and create new characters whenever I want. How can I complain about the price?”

In the comments, there are many positive responses from users who think similarly. A player with 707 hours writes that he still loves the game. “The game is not perfect, but it is so much fun. Really not bad for a new game, in my opinion! And it will only get better.”

Others contribute: “That’s exactly my point. It needs some quality-of-life features and more content, but for what it is now and the time I have already invested: I could stop now and say that I got the performance for the price. With some games, you can’t even play for 100 hours before you have nothing else to do.”

Starfield: The most useful Console Commands in overview – How to activate cheats

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 3 minutes

In Starfield you can use Console Commands to activate cheats. Therefore, we show you here in the overview how it works, whether the Xbox benefits from it, and what cheats exist.

What are Console Commands? In almost every Bethesda game, you can open a secret menu with a specific key combination to enter cheats. Your game is then paused, you are warned that you can no longer unlock achievements, and you can enter your cheats.

This is especially practical if you have already completed the game and want to play with wild modifications like increased sprint speed, a god mode, or endless credits.

Can I use cheats on Xbox? Sort of. There is no key combination for Xbox to open the cheat menu. However, you can play with cheats if you modify your save game on PC using cross-save.

According to our MeinMMO user Zox, you can download Starfield on PC with the Ultimate Game Pass at no additional cost. Now transfer your save game, modify it with the cheats, and then re-upload it to your console.

So you can then play with your modified save game on the Xbox, but make sure you have a backup of your unmodified save game before it messes up your save.

Here we have also listed 5 useful skills that you should definitely unlock at the start:

This is just the headliner. There are several other games that will be added to PS Plus Extra. All the titles presented have at least a score of 81 points on Metacritic. Star Ocean: The Divine Force is the only exception.

How reliable is the leak? The dealabs team has accurately predicted PS Plus games in the past. This includes a leak from January 2023.

Several strong action RPG games for PS Plus Extra

What are the titles about? Players who have overlooked the NieR series so far can experience the beginning of the series with NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…. The title takes place in a post-apocalyptic world and allows us to take on the role of Nier. He is searching for a cure for his sister Yonah, who is suffering from a deadly disease.

What is special about the Star Ocean series is that there are two different storylines. At the beginning of the game, we decide from which perspective we want to follow the experiences. We have two protagonists available who can travel between planets in a sci-fi world.

If two different storylines are not enough, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim allows players to experience 13 different perspectives on the same story. The 2D sidescroller is especially known for its beautiful graphic style.

Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is a strategy game that, unlike its predecessors, offers new ways to interact with its world. We expand our empire and develop our culture further.

In Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, we play as the sniper Reaper, who is supposed to hold a criminal syndicate accountable. According to the name of the game, we have to eliminate some enemies from a great distance, some enemies are even up to 1 km away.

Diablo 3 brings its last new content with Season 29 – Blizzard shows what happens next

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The Blizzard team explained in its latest blog post how Diablo 3 will continue in the coming years. Will new seasons come? What will they look like? We will show you the details.

What’s happening with Diablo 3? Diablo 3 was released in 2012. In the following years, there were many new contents like the Necromancer DLC, new items, features, and exciting seasonal themes. But now it’s over. At least with new content. Season 29 brings the last “new” content to the game.

The development of the game will be stopped. But they won’t completely pull the plug.

The future of Diablo 3 – What’s next?

This is what Blizzard says: A few days ago, Blizzard released the patch notes for update 2.7.6, which forms the basis for season 29. In it, the team also addressed the future of the game. Now that Diablo 4 is in the spotlight, things look grim for the predecessor. What was to be expected. Because already in April, the team roughly announced what will happen next.

In the new blog post (via diablo3.com) Blizzard writes: “Brave Nephalem have fought through hordes for 11 years in seasons, experiencing gameplay-changing themes, experience-defining updates, and hellishly good events. Diablo III will continue to shine in season 29 and beyond. This season lays the foundation for the future of the game and introduces our last brand new theme.”

This is how it will continue: Starting from season 30, there will be no new seasonal themes. Instead, the team will focus on gameplay balancing and bug fixes. Legendary themes and features from past seasons will be reactivated. Furthermore, a new season is expected to start approximately every 3 months.

The action begins this coming Friday. Highlights of the last segment include a single-player mode, new monster affixes, and the special seasonal theme that makes mean bosses appear in portals.

„This was the best moment“ – Fans of Baldur’s Gate 3 regret the early death of a brilliant character

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

“Too little screentime,” complain some players of Baldur’s Gate 3, referring to a rather nasty but great character.

The world of Baldur’s Gate 3 is full of exciting stories and characters: This includes not only the origin characters that you recruit into your party throughout the game, but also many NPCs that make their appearance. Some of them only live for a few seconds, while others can – depending on the right choices – stay until the end.

However, one particularly cool character died, according to fans, far too early.

Spoiler Alert: This article is about a side character from Baldur’s Gate 3 and his fate.

Select a MMO video…

Who is being talked about? It is about the character Kar’niss, a Drider, whom you will most likely encounter in the second act of the game. He is important to acquire a moon lantern.

Depending on whether you play “good” or “evil,” he escorts you to the Cult of the Absolute or is an enemy that you can eliminate.

Baldur's Gate 3 KarNiss Drider
Kar’Niss only has a short appearance.

Combination of unique model and great story captivates players

Why is Kar’niss so popular? Kar’niss is not only the only Drider in Baldur’s Gate 3, but his appearance is almost perfectly timed and atmospheric. Most of the time, you encounter him at the beginning of Act 2 in the Shadow-Cursed Lands. When his spider-like, deformed body slithers out of the darkness and he comes around the corner with his lantern, you realize that the narrative style has shifted significantly to the darker side in Act 2.

What is a Drider?
“Drider” is a combination of the word “Drow” and “Spider,” hence it is called “Drider” in English (a mix of “Drow” and “Spider”).
Drow who are devoted to the spider goddess Lolth are occasionally tested by her. If they fail their task – or the goddess simply has a bad day – she transforms her servants into a Drider as punishment. The lower body is transformed into the body of a spider, and sometimes this has further effects, such as the numerous eyes on Kar’Niss’s face.

His voice acting is also well received, as the dark, cursed being with a hint of madness is a pretty good embodiment of what happens to Drow who give in to Lolth and then do not act to her satisfaction.

However, it may also be that he is so well received precisely because you see so little of him. As he also has a unique model, he is himself unique – and will likely stay in most people’s memory for a long time.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Coop Guide for PS5, PC, Xbox: Tips for Multiplayer
von Benedict Grothaus
Baldur’s Gate 3: Astarion Romance Guide – how to easily win his heart
von Sophia Weiss

This is what the community says: In the Subreddit of Baldur’s Gate 3, the character Kar’niss is actively discussed. The clear opinion is: Kar’niss had far too short an appearance.

  • “I believe that was the most immersive moment for me. His words, the voice acting, the design, etc – I was so “in” and scared.”
  • “I watched him march confidently into the darkness after he gave me his lamp, so I had to salute him. At least until the screams started.”
  • “You all just want the romance option. I bet you all licked the spider, right?”
  • “They gave him so little screentime because they knew if my boy Kar’Niss had gotten just one more minute, players at Larian would not only beg for him to be a companion, but also to be able to date him.”

How did you find the Drider Kar’niss? Did you like the character?

Not as popular as Kar’Niss is an annoying bug – you have probably experienced it too.

LoL: 2 adult men are as happy as children when they can finally reveal the surprise on Twitch

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

NoWay and Tolkin are two well-known figures in the German League of Legends scene. At an event on Twitch, they were allowed to announce a special tournament where German teams like NNO or Eintracht Spandau will meet T1 and their superstar Faker. And both completely freaked out in front of the camera.

What an announcement that was! On December 9, the Red Bull League of Its Own tournament will take place. The “old” NNO, which had played its way into the first German league with streamers like NoWay4U and Agurin, will face the well-known Korean team T1.

But other teams are also participating in the event:

  • Eintracht Spandau, HandOfBlood’s LoL team, faces off in a derby against Berlin International Gaming (BIG) for a chance to play against T1.
  • Three additional spots in the tournament are still marked with a question mark.

The event will take place live on-site in Berlin, and the tickets for the arena sold out in less than three hours. It is highly likely that the tournament will also be streamed on Twitch.

What was special about the announcement? NoWay4U and Tolkin got to officially announce the tournament in a livestream. And both completely freaked out because they are like little kids excited to compete against Faker and the other superstars.

I will touch Faker and get a tattoo

How do the two streamers react? Right after the trailer ends, NoWay and Tolkin jump and scream with joy. Both had known about the tournament for a while but had to keep it a secret, which they obviously found difficult. You can see how a “burden” is lifted from them and how much Tolkin is looking forward to T1.

He shows off his Faker shirt on stream and reveals that he even has T1 socks at home. He talks about wanting to touch Faker and get a tattoo. Additionally, he would be dissatisfied if there were no restraining order against him in the end.

NoWay, on the other hand, is particularly excited about the duel against Faker in the midlane. Tolkin tries to claim that position for himself, but the biggest German streamer for LoL clearly states:

No, I’m playing against Faker, you on the toplane. You can rot there.

However, the two share a small jab against their own team. They can’t really imagine that Karni (27) and especially their ADC Broeki (32) can stand against the strong botlane from Gumayusi (21) and Keria (20). Keria is considered the best supporter in the world and was even voted MVP in Korea in 2022.

  • They also achieved second place twice (2017, 2022) and reached the semifinals multiple times.
  • They also won the Mid-Season Invitational twice.

However, around the live event in Montpellier, there was also bad news for NoWay. He was robbed, injured, and his watch was stolen. More about that here:

How did the user do that? He explains himself on reddit that the hole was already in the wall, as there used to be a mailbox there. He renovated it for his purposes and installed his gaming PC. Through the old slot of the mailbox, he can exhaust the hot air and cool the PC. He explains:

For a school project, I created this original setup. I had an old mailbox in my student room (a large hole in the wall with a slot).

The concept is that in winter, fresh air from outside is used to passively cool the PC via liquid cooling, and in summer, the air is expelled outside so it doesn’t accumulate in my room (because I don’t have windows that open, so it gets hot in summer).

What are the reactions? Many users are quite impressed by the computer system in the wall and praise the creativity of the user.

However, some believe that the execution is not perfect. The fan is visible and accessible to anyone on the outside wall. It would only take one idiot to come up with a stupid idea, and the entire system would be over. Others joke that sooner or later it would be stolen. Someone asks, ‘Aren’t you afraid someone might steal it?’

Moreover, the system is hardly protected against severe weather. Someone explains that he “would add some kind of hood over it to protect the outside fan from the elements because I can imagine that after the first rain shower, the fans would need to be replaced.”

The own gaming PC is a creative playground for many owners

Why do users modify their computers? Gaming PCs are an opportunity for many players to express their creativity. Many gamers find it insufficient to simply park a black or white box under the table and then play new AAA titles with it.

Many players come up with various ideas, and several manufacturers feed the desire for people to own a special PC:

Some users, however, find such small upgrades insufficient. They immediately modify the entire case. Quickly, the gaming PC is remodeled into a futuristic shark, or the PC is converted into a toaster or a sci-fi playground. When it comes to gaming systems, some players know few limits. Nowadays, there are also major championships where the best “builders” compete with their artworks.

Another brilliant setup: A YouTuber has come up with a particularly sophisticated idea to achieve a special “clean” setup. “Clean” means that all distracting things, like cables and co, disappear from the desk. On MeinMMO you can read and see how the YouTuber did it:

WoW will become even more “casual” – Strong rewards for Hero Dungeons will come

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A change in World of Warcraft means that even heroic dungeons can provide really good loot.

With Patch 10.2 Watcher of Dreams, Blizzard wants to refine the system around gear and item level in WoW a bit more. Therefore, there are also some adjustments that mainly affect players who are at the easier end of dungeon difficulties. Because even the “easy” dungeons will soon lead to a weekly reward.

What was said? In an interview with MrGM, Assistant Game Director Morgan Day and Senior Game Director Patrick Scarborough discussed the reward systems of WoW and how they will change in Patch 10.2. In the future, heroic and “Mythic 0” dungeons will be significantly more attractive, as they contribute to the weekly reward from the vault in Valdrakken.

What is the weekly chest?
The vault, sometimes also referred to as the “Weekly Chest,” is a reward system in World of Warcraft. Once a week, characters can choose a gear reward from a larger selection. How many items are available and how strong they are depends on the content previously completed. More difficult content yields stronger options.

What does this mean? In plain language, this means that in Patch 10.2 not only “Mythic+” dungeons will fill your weekly vault, but also:

  • Heroic dungeons
  • Mythic dungeons (“M0”)
  • Timewalking dungeons (count as “heroic”)

So, if you just want to “fill” the vault, you can also simply run heroic or timewalking dungeons to still receive a solid reward from the weekly chest. At the same time, it makes it more worthwhile to participate in timewalking events to also do something good for the weekly vault.

It’s important to note: Even if you visit timewalking dungeons, the weekly reward from the chest resulting from it is a loot piece from the current season – and not from the timewalking dungeon.

What do you think of the change? Is it a good thing that characters can also receive good rewards from easier content? Or is this the wrong way?

Patch 10.1.7 is now playable – there’s a lot to do there too.

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO today, on September 12th, the Spotlight Hour with Menki starts. We will show you everything about Shinys, the bonus, and the start of the event.

What kind of event is this? A Spotlight Hour takes place every Tuesday evening in Pokémon GO. The event features a Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild. There is also a bonus that can affect XP, Stardust, or candies. The event is active for one hour.

Today you will encounter Menki from the first game generation. We will show you the details here in the overview.

Spotlight Hour on September 12th – Start, Bonuses, Shiny

When does the event start? As you are already used to real-life hours, it also kicks off today at 6:00 PM. The event is active for one hour and ends again at 7:00 PM.

What bonuses are available? Between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM, you will find particularly many Menki in the wild. If you want, you can light a incense to attract even more specimens of this species.

Additionally, you will receive double the amount of candies for catching Pokémon.

Today marks the second Spotlight Hour in September 2023 for you. In our overview, we will show you which real-life hours will start this month:

Can you catch Shiny Menki? Yes, the Pokémon from the first game generation are already all active as Shiny in the game. With a bit of luck, you can also catch Shiny Menki today. However, keep in mind that the chances are not increased during Spotlight Hours.

Is the Spotlight Hour worth it today? You can safely ignore Menki as an attacker. Its evolution Rasaff plays in the PvP at most in the upper midfield, so there are stronger alternatives.

The bonus for double catch candies is exciting. Because it applies not only to the Menki you catch but to all Pokémon you catch during the event time. Many trainers take advantage of this to catch raid Pokémon between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM and secure the double candies for that.

If the Spotlight Hour is not to your taste, you still have plenty of options in the coming days. We will show you an overview of all events in September 2023 for Pokémon GO on MeinMMO.
