Season 1 has introduced new items with anger-filled hearts in Diablo 4. Among the most powerful and rare are the anger-filled hearts, for which you need angry malevolent seekers. MeinMMO explains how to craft them.
What kind of item is this?
With seekers, you can open the pustules at the end of the tunnels of malevolence.
Depending on which seeker you use, you will receive a different heart as a reward. Anger-filled seekers are the “wild card”; they are always available.
You also need the item to complete steps in the journey. However, this is not necessary for progress; you can simply complete a different task instead.
How to get the seeker: The easiest way to get anger-filled malevolent seekers is to craft them. You can do this at Cormond’s workbench along the way or in Kyovashad. There, you need to manufacture the item “unstable seeker” under “crafting chests”.
You only have a chance to get an anger-filled seeker. There is no guarantee, as the corresponding hearts are supposed to be rare and stronger. For crafting, you need:
40 brutal secrets
40 vile secrets
40 cunning secrets
1,000 gold
You obtain the secrets from malevolent enemies in the tunnels, or by dismantling the corresponding hearts. It doesn’t matter whether you dismantle them directly at the workbench or whether you recycle an item at the blacksmith that had a heart installed in it.
Diablo 4: With this trick, you save inventory slots
Find anger-filled hearts – Here’s how
You need the seekers primarily to guarantee anger-filled hearts. However, there are more methods:
You are guaranteed to get them from anger-filled malevolent enemies, who are rare.
You can get them with a chance of unstable hearts at Cormond’s workbench.
Additionally, the Echo of Varshan is said to have a chance to drop all hearts. However, we cannot confirm this at the moment. Only the seekers and anger-filled malevolent enemies guarantee the drop of an anger-filled heart.
Unlike the other 3 hearts, anger-filled hearts can be placed in any colored socket. Their effect is also significantly stronger and differs from the other colors. For most of the new, strong builds, you need such a heart. You can find the best builds in our tier list:
Hawked is a new extraction shooter on Steam and will soon start its open beta. From August 3 to August 17, 2023, interested players can take a look at the title that lures with its interesting setting.
What is special about Hawked? In Hawked, players are taken to an island full of ruins and ancient sites. The temples do not seem to be completely abandoned, as traps and puzzles protect the treasure chambers from grave robbers.
Using the puzzles, players can open the doors of the treasure chambers. However, there are also dynamic events, such as a boss enemy that hoards treasures.
The shooter stands out with a very special look. In combat, actions are highlighted by words, just like in comic books. For example, a firefight is signaled by a “Pew Pew”.
In addition, the characters and some areas are shaded like in comics. The unique look of Hawked can be admired in the new trailer:

Hawked trailer announces date for open beta on Steam
With a team of three, players must retrieve the artifacts on the island called X-Isle and escape the island without losing their loot to the competition. The artifacts are not just useless items; they allow teams to use special abilities.
What can the artifacts do? There are supposed to be over 21 artifacts in the game. With the artifacts, players can transform into a bush, for example, to hide from enemies. Other artifacts allow for tracking down opponents.
Players can collect and use three different artifacts at the same time. In addition, there are 14 equipment items like boomerangs, deployable shields, or scout hawks.
Unfortunately, there is still no release date for Hawked, but interested players can already test the shooter in an open beta. Every player is invited to test the title from August 3 to August 17, 2023. The game can be started either via Steam or the MGLauncher on PC.
At a later date, there will also be another open beta that will take place on consoles. This beta will support crossplay between PC and consoles. The developers will reveal further details at a later time.
In the open beta, there will be a Renegade Pass #0 available. It is free for all testers and includes exclusive cosmetics that players will keep in the full version after the open beta.
However, the regular game progress will be reset.
If you were hoping for more realistic gunplay and hardcore elements, you might find We The People to be something for you:
The Twitch streamer Tyler “Tyler1” Steinkamp (28) is known for not shying away from any challenge. His specialty is usually League of Legends, but “T1” seems confident: He has what it takes to be a chess grandmaster.
Since when does Tyler1 play chess? The Twitch streamer usually shows almost exclusively League of Legends and does not necessarily exhibit the characteristics expected of a strategic board player at first glance.
As part of the now 5th edition of the amateur tournament “PogChamps”, Tyler1 has now taken up chess. Also participating are well-known content creators like CDawgVA, Fuslie, Papaplatte, and xQc.

How the Worst Troll from Twitch Became the Face of League of Legends
The game that wouldn’t end
How is Tyler1 doing so far? On the first matchday, Tyler1 faced the IRL streamer Yoo “Jinnytty” Yoonjin. The 28-year-old had a strong start and was able to capitalize on his advantage well, quickly getting the opportunity to checkmate his opponent.
Unfortunately, Tyler1 missed this chance. Perhaps he was simply pursuing a strategy that we mere mortals cannot comprehend. Even when the chance for checkmate arose a second time, the Twitch streamer showed mercy.
Combined with technical problems, this brilliant strategy ultimately caused the game to drag on for over an hour and a half. When Tyler1 ended the game with a masterful, almost accidentally seeming chess move, the commentators seemed just glad that it was over.

The second game could be decisively won by the experienced LoL player much faster. Thus, he became the first participant to win 0:2 against his opponent. All in all, it was a successful day for Tyler1, who could not understand the subsequent criticism of his technique at all.
Tyler1 rants about “backseat gaming” from the chess pro
How did the challenge come about? Levy Rozman, who holds the title of international master and has the honor of being a commentator at PogChamps 5, expressed his opinion on Tyler1’s playing skills after the match.
Rozman, who is currently ranked only at position 3591 in the world rankings, suggested that Tyler1 could work a bit on his openings and tune his performance a little. However, the Twitch streamer wanted nothing to do with that.
The 28-year-old is confident: “Let me face this guy 1v1. I’ll bet 10,000 [US Dollars] that I can beat him on the first try. Who is this guy to claim he can beat me at chess?”
How does the Twitch streamer plan to do that? Tyler1 explains that he simply levels up alongside his opponent. No matter who he would play against, his skills would adapt and he would perform at the same level as his opponent.
What are Tyler1’s chances? Hikaru Nakamura is ranked 2nd in the world rankings by the international chess organization FIDE. The first place is held by Magnus Carlsen. Tyler1, who brings little experience in chess, has quite a task ahead of him if he wants to “crush” the grandmasters.
As Reddit user justinotherpeterson notes: If there is anyone who could grind their way up to grandmaster purely out of spite, it would be Tyler1.
Finally, the Twitch streamer became the second player in 2022 to reach the highest rank with all five roles in League of Legends. However, in his attempt to start from scratch on a European server and climb to Challenger, he encountered logistical problems:
A developer studio with former employees of Riot Games has announced a new survival MMO where you can play cooperatively with up to 16 friends.
Treehouse Games is a relatively young development studio that, according to its own statements, consists of veterans from various indie and AAA studios. Michael Chu, co-founder and CEO of Treehouse Games, explains that half of the team consists of former employees from companies like Microsoft and Riot Games.
Michael Chu himself was also Product Lead at Riot Games for seven years and worked, among other things, on League of Legends.
What kind of game is this? Currently, the game is still in development and carries the working title “Codename: Islands.” However, not much is known yet about the title – it is currently unknown on which platforms the title will be released or the release date.
In Codename: Islands, you will cooperatively embark on a magical, vibrant island with up to 16 players and attempt to awaken an island spirit on your journey, as well as explore the magical underwater world surrounding the island.

Treehouse Games presents first teaser trailer for “Codename: Islands”
In an interview with the online magazine PC Gamer, Treehouse Games added that players can build a “constantly evolving home,” craft equipment, and fight monsters – all gameplay elements typical for survival games.
Furthermore, Treehouse Games’ Andrea Sepenzis explained that they want to create a game where everyone plays an important role in their group – whether you enjoy building bases, exploring the world, or fighting bosses.
Overall, Codename: Islands is inspired by other cooperative survival games like Minecraft, Terraria, and Valheim. Studio co-founder Michael Chu emphasized to PC Gamer that the studio prefers games where players can have a “good time with others.”
According to Chu, too many multiplayer games are designed for competitions and shooting at each other, even though people just want to have fun with friends.
The nearly direct opposite of Codename: Islands and the ideas of Treehouse Games is survival classic DayZ, where PvP is the order of the day:
The well-known Twitch streamer Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller (27) recently received a donation worth €600 through Twitch’s new hype chat feature. What this is all about and why he is returning it without hesitation is explained to you by MeinMMO.
What kind of donation was that? The popular Twitch streamer Papaplatte caused confusion with an unexpectedly large donation of €600. He himself emphasized in a statement that he values the trust of his viewers and that transparency in such incidents is extremely important.
Papaplatte received the donation through a new Twitch feature, the hype chat. Viewers can use the feature to highlight messages in the chat: The more you donate, the longer the message stays pinned in the chat. However, the amount seemed suspicious to the Twitch streamer.

Papaplatte reacts exemplary to donation
How did Papaplatte react to the donation? The Twitch streamer was initially speechless in the face of the generous donation. He thanked the viewer and sent them “much love”.
However, doubts quickly arose about whether the donation of this amount was intended. The streamer’s chat suspected that the fan probably only wanted to donate €6. For this reason, Papaplatte asked the viewer multiple times whether the huge hype chat donation was intentional.
What did the viewer say? The generous donor did respond in the chat, but his answer proved to be of little help in clarifying the situation. The apparently hastily typed chat message “wh<tra???” leaves room for interpretation.
The Twitch streamer then explained that he did not have the impression that it was an intended donation and offered the fan to withdraw the donation. However, his viewers informed him that this was not possible.
How did Papaplatte behave? He decided to refund the entire amount, even though this meant that he had to pay about €180 out of his own pocket. This also compensated for the difference deducted by Twitch, as part of the income from the hype chat goes to the streaming platform.
How was the action received? Viewers found Papaplatte’s behavior exemplary. On TikTok and YouTube, where a recording of the incident was uploaded, numerous users praise the Twitch streamer. Papaplatte is a true “honorary man”.
New feature on Twitch causes criticism
Why is hype chat so prone to erroneous donations? The incident highlights the problems and error-proneness of the hype chat feature on Twitch, which enables viewers to express their support for their favorite streamers through donations with a highlighted message.
When the feature was first introduced, there were already early signs of potential problems. A viewer wanted to support a streamer with just €1.20 at the time, but due to a typo when entering the amount, €120 ended up in the donation bucket unintentionally.
The use of period and comma as separators for sums of money led to misunderstandings and unintentionally large donations. However, Twitch reacted and announced on June 23, 2023, that the error had been fixed (via Twitter).
How the viewer could still make such a mistake remains unclear.
MontanaBlack says: “Whoever uses this is to blame”
How do streamers react to this feature? Even though the error has already been fixed, the current event with Papaplatte might strengthen some streamers’ skepticism about the hype chat feature. Many of them have already addressed and criticized the hype chat in their streams before.
The fear of inadvertently large donations and possible chargebacks has led some streamers to urge their viewers to use the hype chat feature only very rarely or even to avoid it altogether.
What does MontanaBlack88 say about this? The well-known Twitch streamer Marcel “MontanaBlack88” Eris (35) has already spoken out against hype chat and announced that he does not want to support it. He even goes so far as to explain to his viewers that he simply would not read the messages highlighted through the hype chat feature. Anyone who still uses the feature is to blame.

The German-speaking streamer Theo “Scurrows” Bottländer is on a winning streak against huge social media companies. As he announces now, he has pulled off a coup in court against TikTok: If the platform continues to restrict his account, the company faces a fine of €250,000. He has obtained a preliminary injunction against TikTok, which prohibits the platform from restricting him under penalty.
Scurrows reports: The controversial casino streamer reports on Twitter:
He has achieved a success against TikTok. His banned channel will be back “in the next few days” and may not be banned again. Scurrows sees this as a victory for freedom of speech.
From a document he shares on Twitter, it is clear: A judge issued a preliminary injunction against TikTok on July 21, stating that they may neither ban his channel nor impose a shadow ban until a decision in the trial is made.
If TikTok does not comply with the ruling, there is a threat of a €250,000 fine and up to 6 months of custody for a legal representative.
Scurrows is considered a friend of MontanaBlack:

Scurrows had filed a lawsuit to return to Twitch after 3 years of ban
What victory had Scurrows achieved before? Scurrows had already achieved a significant victory in court in 2021.
The streamer had made a name for himself with role play in GTA V but was permanently banned by Twitch in 2018. He was accused of hate speech: He allegedly liked comments on YouTube that were directed against streamer colleagues Shlorox and Tinkerleo (via streamrant).
Scurrows filed a lawsuit to return to Twitch after 1,242 days, having lost in some instances before.
How do these successes affect Scurrows? Since the success of his lawsuit against Twitch, Scurrows is known to threaten swiftly with his lawyers.
Now he has publicly threatened some people who criticized him in a conflict with streamer Shurjoka with his lawyers and warnings on Twitter.
In this way, he has ensured that the YouTuber HerrNewsTime took down a video about the gamescom incident, which, in Scurrows’ eyes, spread untruths about him.
On Twitter, Scurrows is congratulated for his victory in any case. He seems to have experienced a strong phase in recent weeks, at least before his Twitch ban:
World of Warcraft is full of secrets. We reveal to you how to get the best mounts, pets, and other rewards that hardly anyone possesses.
World of Warcraft is full of secrets. This does not only mean small Easter eggs, but sometimes really long, hidden puzzles that offer various rewards. Especially during the expansion “Legion,” Blizzard started to incorporate bigger and more complex puzzles.
We have listed all the big puzzles here for you and reveal how to solve them.
Secret Mounts
On the first page, we cover the hidden mounts available in World of Warcraft. But be warned: Some of these mounts require a lot of time and iron will.
Lucid Nightmare
Reward: Mount “Lucid Nightmare” Required Players: 1 Duration: Several hours
What is better than a unicorn? A black, dark unicorn. And that is exactly what you can get in this puzzle if you show ambition and take on the numerous puzzle steps of this mount. But be warned: Some of the steps take time and endurance, and particularly the “Endless Halls” have driven many a mount collector to madness.
How long you take for the puzzle can vary greatly. Some finish within 3 hours – others spend days on the last steps because it just doesn’t seem to progress…
Reward: Mount “Otto” Required Players: 1 Duration: Several hours
With Dragonflight, new otter mounts have been introduced into the game. Most of them are already pretty cool, but one of the otters is even cooler – because it wears sunglasses. To get this “Otto,” you need to prove your skill, especially as a fisherman. Those who have laid the groundwork here will progress faster.
Reward: Mount “Hivemind” for multiple players Required Players: 5 Duration: Several hours
There are puzzles that are exhausting. And then there is the Hivemind. Because you not only have to find 4 other players for this puzzle, but you also have to motivate them to solve some steps of the puzzle solo.
The puzzle requires many hours of preparation, and even solving the mystery can take several more hours. Those who do not keep a cool head – and especially communicate over voice – will become almost mad while searching for the Hivemind.
At least, there’s a special “brain” mount that all your companions who have solved the puzzle with you can climb into.
Reward: Mount “Riddler’s Mind Worm” Required Players: 1 Duration: around 60 minutes
One of the first major secrets of World of Warcraft is the Riddler’s Mind Worm. The puzzle is still relatively simple, as it is “only” a big scavenger hunt where you must find various pages in the game world.
So, if you have little time but still want to grab a rather unique mount, the Riddler’s Mind Worm is a good entry.
Reward: Mount “Long Forgotten Hippogryph” Required Players: 1 Duration: Variable
The hope for a purple hippogryph has long been held in the WoW community, and with the “Legion” expansion, you could finally get it. But to get this mount, you need to spend a lot of time in the Azsuna area and click on a series of crystals before another character can succeed.
Nowadays, the competition in collecting this mount is fortunately very low – but finding the crystals can still take a while.
Reward: Mount “Fabious” Required Players: 1 Duration: Highly variable
Fabious is one of the easiest puzzles of World of Warcraft, which basically consists of a single step. You just wait for the spawn of a certain enemy and then have to pull out your SELFIE camera. But the waiting can take hours – and anyone who is “afk” for a moment might miss this spawn.
Reward: Mount “Valor” Required Players: 1 Duration: Several hours
The actual unlocking of the undead horse “Valor” goes pretty quickly. The problem lies especially in the preceding tasks, where you first have to unlock Scholomance, Naxxramas, and a special vendor. However, if you have already completed that, you only need about an hour to secure the temperamental death horse.
Emily Rudd will be seen in the new live-action series adaptation of One Piece as Nami. In an interview, she spoke about her character and revealed who the real boss on board is.
Soon, the new series One Piece will launch on Netflix. It is a live-action adaptation of the popular manga series, which also has a very well-known anime.
In an interview with Gamesradar, actress Emily Rudd talked about how she would describe her character and why the crew would be lost without Nami.
Here you can see the official trailer for the One Piece series on Netflix:

“Who controls the money? Who steers the ship?”
When asked how Emily Rudd would describe her character in three words, she used the terms: clever, protective, and loving.
The character is the “brain” of the crew, she explained, looking out for the crew members while also being able to outsmart others. Additionally, Nami doesn’t reveal much about herself and has a secret or two.
However, even though the character may not always seem that way, Nami acts mainly out of love and care.
The interviewer then tells the actress that someone would describe the relationship between Nami and Luffy as: “Luffy is the captain, but Nami is the boss.”
Emily Rudd completely agrees:
Oh, definitely! The way she is the only one who controls the money, and they say: “Nami, can I please have some pocket money?” And she says: “You get 20 Berry, have fun,” and that’s it. I love it.
Of course, she does that. Of course, she mothers these people. They are just crazy, silly guys.
Later, the actress is also asked who she would name as the most powerful member of the Straw Hat crew. Emily Rudd had two answers.
First, she mentioned that only one of the crew members is one of the “Four Emperors.” However, she did not reveal who for spoiler reasons. Secondly, she named her character and explained:
But if I have to talk about our team, I say Nami, because she is the boss, as we said. Who controls the money? Who steers the ship?
Without her, you can’t go anywhere and without her, you can’t buy anything, you’re stuck, sorry.
When does One Piece start on Netflix? Starting August 31, 2023, you can watch the first season of the live-action adaptation of the manga on Netflix. The first season will consist of 8 episodes.
If you want to pass the time until the release date of One Piece, you might find something in this anime list:

How crash detection works on iPhone and Apple Watch
Without his phone, the owner would probably have bled to death within an hour
The search and rescue team of the “Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department” responded to an accident in the Angeles National Forest after receiving an iPhone accident detection alert. This is a feature of the iPhone designed to detect serious vehicle accidents.
The team was able to quickly locate the driver using the phone’s GPS tracking, according to Mike Leum, the head of the response team. When the responders arrived, they could hear the man’s voice but did not know exactly where he was. Leum stated in a press release that the person had been very lucky (via usatoday.com):
Without the timely notification from the iPhone accident detection, no one would have seen him fall over [the cliff], and who knows if he would have ever been found. He would most likely have bled to death within about an hour.
Accident detection is available on newer iPhone models
What exactly is this function? The accident detection feature is active on the iPhone 14, the 14 Pro, and various new “Apple Watch” models. Normally, the feature is turned on unless you manually disable it.
How does accident detection work? In the event of a serious car accident, the devices display this message – “It seems you have had an accident” – and call emergency services if you do not dismiss the message within 20 seconds, Apple explains on its website.
If you do not dismiss the message, the iPhone sends a notification to the emergency call center, including your last known coordinates. And this very feature most likely saved the life of the person involved in the accident.
Others are also being saved thanks to their technology. For instance, a girl was rescued from her kidnapper because she was allowed to play on her Nintendo Switch. You can read the entire story on MeinMMO:
The MMORPG Black Desert is known as a sandbox and PvP game. However, since the expansion Land of the Morning Light, it seems that things are changing. Now, the Korean version has announced extensive changes that PvP enthusiasts are not pleased with.
What is changing in Black Desert? Through a blog post, the Korean version of the MMORPG has presented significant changes to the open-world PvP. Whether and when these changes will come to us is still unknown at this time.
However, the steps presented give PvE players in Black Desert significantly more room and options to avoid PvP. The following things are set to take effect in the future:
Guild wars will only occur if both guilds declare war on each other. A unilateral declaration of war will no longer lead to war between guilds. This is meant to prevent targeted harassment and oppression of guilds.
The karma system will be extended to the account. If one of your characters is red, all are. This is also intended to make players think twice before attacking innocent players.
The cooldown for switching channels will be adjusted from 10 to 5 minutes. This way, you can avoid PvP players more quickly.
The “Solo Zone” Marnis Realm will be greatly expanded. Previously, you could spend an hour a day in a personal grind spot alone. Now, after an hour cooldown, you can spend another hour there. So up to 12 hours a day.
Why are these changes happening? Many fans find this announcement surprising. Because as recently as December, the developers confirmed that they did not plan to expand Marnis Realm and that one hour would be enough.
In the blog post, however, Pearl Abyss emphasizes, that so many new players came into the world of Black Desert who could not enjoy the open world. They even write that many players moved through the game anxiously and wanted to change that.

Community sharply discusses the changes, PvP players are cautious, PvE fans celebrate
How are the changes received? The topic is being discussed, of course, mainly on Reddit for Black Desert. So far, the reception of the changes has been very mixed. Particularly the PvE fans are happy about the updates. For them, the change could not come soon enough.
PvP fans feel correspondingly upset. Opinions range from “I don’t know how I should feel about this” to “Black Desert is no longer my game.” However, hardly anyone on the PvP side is truly enthusiastic.
Especially the changes to Marnis Realm and the account-wide karma system are being hotly debated. While some people claim the game world will become too empty because of this, others say they will finally start grinding. Previously, it just wasn’t enjoyable.
What do you think of the announced changes? Are you looking forward to them, or do you believe that Black Desert will lose its identity because of them? Do you suspect that the MMORPG can gain players because of this, or will it lose many veterans? Feel free to let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.
Witches are currently considered the absolute losers in Diablo 4. To prove that the class is not completely useless, a player has plunged into the highest level of Nightmare Dungeons – and mastered it. He used a build that was already extremely strong before Season 1.
Enemies in Nightmare Dungeons at level 100 are level 150, currently the highest in the game. Even though all Nightmare Dungeons received a heavy nerf, they are still dangerous at level 100. Especially wizards are usually killed in one hit.
wunthr tackled the Sailor’s Refuge in Scosglen, one of the new Nightmare Dungeons from Season 1. In addition to the already high level, there were quite tough affixes that he had to contend with:
Cold Enchanted, one of the worst affixes in Dungeons overall
25% increased attack speed for monsters
30% more health for monsters
Enemies attacking players from behind deal 150% more damage
Start video
Diablo 4: Blizzard build for the Sorceress in gameplay in the Lightwatch at World Tier 3
These Ice Shards explode and deal enormous damage. In wunthr’s case, up to nearly 25 million damage, as he shows in the video. The spell is enhanced by Malicious Hearts, the new mechanic from Season 1:
Locked Heart of Tal’Rasha: For each unique element you deal damage with, you inflict 3-10 seconds of 7-12% increased damage.
Locked Heart of Vengeance: 10-20% of damage taken is instead suppressed. When you use a defense, deception, or macabre skill, all suppressed damage is amplified by 250% and explodes, dealing up to 1360-2040 fire damage to nearby enemies.
Locked Heart of the Barber: Critical hits and all subsequent damage within 2.0-4.0 seconds are absorbed by your target. The absorbed damage then discharges onto nearby enemies. The stored damage increases by 10% per second.
The player claims that the build is currently one of the strongest in the game overall. If you want to try it out yourself, you can find our version of the Blizzard build here on MeinMMO:
The reactions to the video are extremely positive. Many wizard players are happy that their class is apparently not dead after all. It’s said to be more difficult to get this far, but you can still achieve everything that other classes can.
Nevertheless, the wizard currently remains in a weak position. However, that is expected to change soon. With the upcoming Patch 1.1.1, Blizzard promises buffs for wizards and barbarians, which are sorely needed:
For a long time now, Destiny 2 players have wished for an improved inventory that allows them to store more valuable materials without constantly facing space issues. Bungie has now responded to this wish and introduced a buff that expands the inventory. However, while the joy among the Guardians was initially great, a hidden catch soon became apparent. The buff is also a nerf.
The essentials in brief
Bungie has announced the expansion of the inventory in Destiny 2; the caps for masterwork materials will be increased.
However, the overall account-wide limit will be reduced, which can be seen as a nerf.
This is what Bungie has announced for Season 22: Bungie, the developer of Destiny 2, has announced on its website that in the upcoming Season 22, the inventory limits for some masterwork materials will be doubled or even tripled.
The Guardians will soon have more space for their masterwork materials in their inventory.
The cap for Ascendant Shards, referred to as “golf balls” by the Guardians in Destiny 2, will increase from 10 to 30.
Ascendant Alloys will also be increased from 10 to 30.
And the number of Enhancement Prisms will be doubled from 50 to 100.
The tedious juggling of materials and the constant fight for space will thus belong to the past after Bungie’s announcement starting from Season 22.
However, upon closer inspection, it also becomes clear that while players can carry more, the account limit will decrease overall. Indirectly, it is therefore not a buff, but a nerf of minus 10.

Destiny 2: Teaser trailer for the DLC “The Final Form”
The post is not an inventory storage: The expansion of the inventory has long been a wish of the players, as many had to “temporarily store” their materials in the post. And that was not without risks.
If the post was ever overflowing, the valuable stacks of hard-earned masterwork materials could easily fall to the back and be lost forever.
These are the “Noooooo” cries of the Guardians that you hear when returning to the tower after a long raid, only to find that 10 Ascendant Shards had been replaced by a worthless engram. Bungie wants to spare you this experience in the future.
A major reason for this change is to eliminate the risk of losing these materials with the Postmaster. As the caps have been raised, we are removing the possibility that these items end up with the Postmaster.
From Season 22 onwards, players will no longer lose anything at the post. Additionally, the masterwork materials will behave like Glimmer.
This, however, is a disadvantage that can be endured. Because especially the valuable Ascendant Shards, which are crucial for upgrading gear, should not simply be lost like that. And many players do not play three characters.
First precursor of major economic changes: This will not be the only economic change for the new Season 22. Bungie has announced further, larger changes to keep the economy of Destiny 2 in a healthy state and to avoid any possibility of currency inflation.
Have you also sunk a few “golf balls” at the post and been annoyed by it? And what do you think of Bungie’s decision to expand the inventory capacity for masterwork materials while simultaneously reducing the account-wide limit? Feel free to leave us your opinion in the comments.
On the other hand, if you want to turn your Guardian into a standing turret with air superiority, you should know this fact in Destiny 2:
If players already have full stacks of these materials in their inventory, meaning they cannot receive any more items, none will drop until they spend something and fall below the limit.
Good to know: If you are still misusing the post as storage, you will also lose nothing. All Ascendant Shards, Ascendant Alloys, and Enhancement Prisms that are still at the post at the start of Season 22 will remain there until you pick them up. You can build up a buffer at the start of the new Season 22 if you wish.
This is why the change is actually a nerf: At first glance, this may seem like a welcome buff for players, increasing much-needed storage capacity for valuable materials. But behind this generosity lies a nerf.
In this Season 21, Guardians can still own a total of 40 “golf balls.”
10 of those in their actual inventory and another 10 at the post from three characters.
From Season 22 onwards, players will only be able to possess 30 “golf balls.”
This, however, is a disadvantage that can be endured. Because especially the valuable Ascendant Shards, which are crucial for upgrading gear, should not simply be lost like that. And many players do not play three characters.

In Diablo 4, fans are puzzled by a curious error they found when rolling new gear. A blessing from Season 1 is supposed to give you more gold, but instead, it increases your costs when you want to reroll your stats.
What is the feature? This is the feature of blessings that players receive as they progress in the Battle Pass and earn ashes. These ashes can be spent in “urns” to gain bonuses like more XP from fallen enemies or more gold from sold items. However, one blessing is now causing problems.
What is the problem? Reddit user lauranthalasa watched a stream from DatModz on Twitch. It was about a certain blessing in the Season Pass of Season 1 costing you more gold when you want to reroll your gear. The streamer had an amulet that he wanted to reroll.
What is rerolling?
In Diablo 4, items spawn with values. If you don’t like those values, you can check in with the occultist for some gold. He can then reroll your values on these items so that they can get better or worse values with a bit of luck.
Before he activated this blessing, his venture cost 7.4 million gold. However, after increasing the blessing to 10%, the costs rose to 8.0 million gold. Players are now warning about this error.

A blessing that is supposed to bring you gold costs you more gold
Which blessing is meant? It’s about the urn of negotiation. This blessing grants you more gold when you sell items to the vendor. The Twitch streamer DatModz demonstrated it (via twitter.com) and warns about this error.
What should you do? Reddit user lauranthalasa now advises that if you want to reroll items, you must first deactivate the blessing and take the ashes out of the urn. This way, you won’t waste your gold unnecessarily and can reactivate the blessing when you want to sell things.
Is the bug still there? We at MeinMMO tried to replicate the bug, but it did not occur for us. So it is not entirely clear whether only some items are affected by this bug or if the error has perhaps already been fixed by Blizzard. Shortly after the post, a new patch for Diablo 4 was released, in which the bug, however, was not mentioned.
For safety’s sake, you should deactivate the blessing if you want to reroll items until Blizzard has made an official statement. This way, you save your gold and don’t realize later that you were taken advantage of.
Has the error occurred for you? Feel free to leave your opinion and experience in the comments!
The release of Starfield is yet to come, but some players are already annoyed by one little thing and wish they could turn it off.
What is this little thing? Reddit user “parsajaghi12” pointed out in a post on the social network about the XP display of Starfield, which shows how many experience points you gain for certain actions.
In the gameplay deep dive in June 2023, the XP display appeared, for example, when the player defeated an NPC enemy or picked a lock.
In his Reddit post, parsajaghi12 explained that he is very annoyed by this XP display and asked how the other members of the Starfield subreddit feel about it. The post garnered over 500 upvotes and 279 comments in 10 days (as of July 27, 2023).

What are the fans saying? Many commentators agree with parsajaghi12 and are also annoyed by the XP display. Fans are bothered, among other things, by the position of the display, which is often quite central on the screen.
Additionally, some players find the XP bar too thick and the display duration too long. Overall, the display and its position break the immersion of the role-playing game, which is why some fans hope that in the finished game, there will be an option to turn off the display or at least move it.
FateAudax: “Giving players the option to toggle UI elements on or off would be nice.”
PhaserRave: “Yes [it annoys], I hate things that block my view.”
rohtvak: “It immediately breaks the immersion.”
pyromanix83: “That’s the first thing that immediately stood out to me in the game and annoyed me.”
KarimMet: “It [the display] stays up too long. It would be great if you could adjust the duration and the area where it appears, or turn it off completely.”
There are also players who have no problem with the XP display. However, a few added that they understand if it bothers other players.

4 cool games coming out in the next 2 months – Do you have them all on your radar?
Starfield will be one of the biggest games of the year. Both Sci-Fi and RPG fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the space adventure and scrutinizing every little detail – hence the focus is naturally also on seemingly minor things like a briefly displayed XP display.
Humble Bundle throws great games into a package and offers them at a bargain price. All of you who are fans of classic role-playing games should enjoy the current bundle. The bundle includes six of the best PC role-playing games on Steam.
Which games are included in the bundle? The current Humble Bundle is titled “RPG Legends: Baldur’s Gate & Beyond” and lives up to its name. For a price of only 10.88 Euro, you get six games and two add-ons that you can add to your Steam library:
If you decide to buy the bundle, you will receive a Steam code for each game. You must redeem these on your account to add them to your library. Alternatively, you can also gift the codes to other role-playing game fans.
The games are also a nice pastime until the release of Baldur’s Gate 3, especially the predecessors of the series. What awaits you with Baldur’s Gate 3 will be shown in the following trailer:

Baldur’s Gate 3: The release teaser for the new role-playing game for PS5 and Steam
The price is worth it because the games would normally cost 185.37 Euro. Pathfinder alone costs 39.99 Euro on Steam and is therefore almost four times as expensive as the Humble Bundle.
What is the Humble Bundle actually? With the Humble Bundle, you can pay more than 10.88 Euro, which will be donated. The amount goes either to charitable organizations, the development studios, or the employees of Humble Bundle.
You can also choose how to proportion your donation.
Two of the best role-playing games of all time are already available for 5.44 €
If you still don’t want to pay the price of 10.88 €, you can also choose to pay only half. For 5.44 €, you already get two of the best role-playing games of all time – Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition and Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition.
Icewind Dale has 96% positive ratings for the recent reviews, while Planescape even has 100%. The two titles are among the greatest successes in role-playing history.
Icewind Dale is a turn-based role-playing game built on the rules of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. Here, a group is sent to the northern, arctic Icewind Dale. There, they must investigate the local monster attacks more closely.
Planescape: Torment focuses more on dialogue and story compared to the Baldur’s Gate titles. Here, the fights take a back seat.
The actor Robert Downey Jr. improvised a line in Iron Man that became a significant milestone for the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In 2008, the first phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) began with Iron Man. The main role of billionaire Tony Stark was played by Robert Downey Jr.
The actor was given the freedom to improvise some of his lines as Tony Stark. This led to one of the most famous lines in the MCU, which also influenced the upcoming superhero films of the franchise.
Here you can see a trailer for Iron Man featuring Robert Downey Jr.:

“I am Iron Man”
At the end of the film Iron Man, a press conference takes place where Tony Stark is actually supposed to keep his identity as a superhero a secret. Instead of reading the provided alibi story, the character looks up and says: “I am Iron Man.” (in German: Ich bin Iron Man)
This line was not in the script and was improvised by actor Robert Downey Jr.
As the president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, explained to Deadline on July 19, 2018, the quote in the film was a key moment in the development of the MCU:
This success inspired us to move forward and trust ourselves to find a balance where we stay true to the comics and the spirit of the comics, but also are not afraid to adapt, evolve, and change things.
However, it is a balancing act where one has to distinguish whether one is straying from the comic source without reason or if this can show the character even better.
Only in the latter aspect would one be diverging from the comics. In the case of Iron Man, it was a good decision to integrate the improvisation into the film, even if the revelation did not happen this way in the comic source.
Kevin Feige further explained:
What I find great now – after 20 films – is that fans expect the MCU to change and adapt. They expect us to be inspired by the comics rather than adhering to them scrupulously.
Although many superhero fans celebrate Robert Downey Jr. for his role in Iron Man, the actor named two completely different titles as the most important films of his career, as you can read here from our colleagues at Filmstarts.
Thus, the MCU also broke with the known hiding game of superheroes from the public, as previously seen in the genre.
While Clark Kent disguises himself as a journalist with glasses in his “normal life” and Bruce Wayne keeps his nighttime identity as Batman a secret, Tony Stark told the entire world who is inside the Iron Man suit.
Inspired by the success of the film, the Marvel Studios later no longer hid the hero Thor behind his secret comic identity as Dr. Donald Blake, but showed his true existence as the God of Thunder.
Therefore, many Marvel heroes were no longer unknown, mysterious saviors, but rather public figures who, like film or pop stars, are celebrated by fans.
Here you can find a survey where we want to know from you which MCU film from Phase 1-3 you think is the best:
The actress Gal Gadot was on the verge of quitting her career. Then she received an offer to audition for a “secret role.” The project turned out to be the DC heroine Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman is one of the most famous and strongest superheroes ever. With superhuman strength, speed, the ability to fly, and unwavering fighting spirit, the DC heroine rivals even Greek deities.
In 2016, Gal Gadot was first seen as Wonder Woman in Zack Snyder’s film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Later, her character also received two solo films.
The actress Gal Gadot told in the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on May 24, 2017, the story behind her major DC role and that she initially knew nothing about her big chance.

“I knew nothing at all”
Gal Gadot had reached a point in her acting career where she was about to give up her profession entirely.
She had gone through many auditions where she nearly got the role but was then turned down again. “I’m not sure how much longer I can take this,” Gadot told her husband in frustration.
Then she received a call from director Zack Snyder. He wanted to invite her to audition for a “secret role.” Since Gadot had nothing to lose, she agreed.

She received a script but had no context regarding the story or the character. “I knew nothing at all,” Gal Gadot explained.
As she mentioned in another interview with Variety, she had to present scenes from Pulp Fiction during the audition.
The audition went well for the actress, and she flew to Israel to participate in a small film. Meanwhile, she was still unsure if she wanted to continue working in her profession.
Again, Gadot received a call for the project: This time she was invited for a camera test. She then asked the actress what kind of role it was actually about.
From her agency, she only received the answer: “Did they not tell you?” Gadot denied it and wondered why there was such secrecy surrounding the project.
Only two days later did Gal Gadot find out during a phone call what role it actually was. Zack Snyder called her and explained that it had been about the well-known DC heroine Wonder Woman all along. Gadot was thrilled.
On the night of July 27, the servers of Diablo 4 were down to implement a new patch. This patch fixed several bugs, including one that allowed a journey step of Season 1 to be completed in seconds. You can find the patch notes in German here.
What kind of bug was it?The journey is one of the new features of Season 1, where you are supposed to solve various tasks. One of these tasks from Stage 3 was to collect 10 chests from the Whispering Tree.
This could be done until today by simply picking up a chest and dropping it again repeatedly. Each pick-up contributed to the progress. Now it no longer works. The bug was popular for completing the journey step because you need Stage 3 for several things:
You need to complete Stage 3 to progress in the seasonal quest.
With the bug, this step was the easiest in the stage.
Furthermore, every journey step advances you in the Battle Pass, where you can earn cosmetic rewards.
What’s in the patch: The new update brings more bug fixes, most of which will likely be more pleasing than the one related to chests. Among other things, there is now a pop-up that prevents you from accidentally wasting money on the Battle Pass.
Additionally, Werebears and Werewolves no longer glow unnaturally brightly, and the game should run more stably. You can find the complete patch notes here:
The patch notes in German
A bug was fixed that allowed some focus off-hand items to imprint an aspect only once.
A bug was fixed that caused the combination of the malevolent powers Dark Dance and Punishing Speed to stun players themselves.
A bug was fixed that allowed the seasonal journey Cruel Reward to be repeated by dropping and picking up the same loot.
A bug was fixed that made the fur color of Werebear and Werewolf too bright in certain situations.
A bug was fixed where movements with certain controllers often did not work correctly.
Activation of the premium Battle Pass must now be confirmed by a pop-up.
In the Battle Pass menu, the button that the controller selects first is now by default the seasonal journey button.
Multiple causes of crashes have been fixed.
Further stability improvements.
A fix for the interaction with the Malevolent Heart power Raging Winds, which caused Cyclone Armor to trigger automatically and ignored the cooldown.
Receiving or reallocating Season Blessings now clears the “Buy Back Items” area.

New update 1.1.1 aims to fix a bunch of issues
Blizzard is currently planning several patches and hotfixes that are yet to come. Most of them are aimed at fixing bugs and increasing stability. However, a major patch 1.1.1 with numerous balance changes is also scheduled to come in the next few days, including:
Improvements for Barbarians and Sorceresses
Higher monster density in Nightmare Dungeons and Hell Tides
On Friday, July 28, the developers plan to talk more specifically about the new features in a new Campfire Chat. As community chief Adam Fletcher promised, the patch should be released “shortly thereafter,” probably within 1-2 weeks.
After the large criticism of patch 1.1.0 and Season 1, the developers now want to discuss the upcoming changes in advance and publish patch notes several days before patch day:

How did the list come about? We looked at the data from Google Trends for the current year 2023 (from January 1, 2023, to July 24, 2023) and compared which game was searched how often in Germany. It also shows whether interest in the MMORPG has increased or decreased this year.
These search queries do not directly correlate with the number of players of an MMORPG, but they are still a strong indicator of a game’s popularity.
Google Trends provides an average value for this ranking, showing you the 10 most relevant MMORPGs according to Google in 2023 and based on Germany.

Place 10 – Star Wars: The Old Republic
Developer: BioWare, Electronic Arts | Platform: PC | Release Date: December 20, 2011 | Model: Free2Play with optional subscription
What kind of game is this?SWTOR is an MMORPG with the official “Star Wars” license and places a strong focus on the story, which has been almost completely voiced. It takes place about 3,000 years before the events of Episode 1 and offers one of the best stories overall when playing as the Imperial Agent.
During character creation, you can choose to join either the Republic or the Empire and have the choice of 4 different classes, each offering two subclasses. This allows you to
become a Jedi Knight.
terrorize the game world as a Sith Sorcerer.
Or act as a smuggler.
With the help of main and side quests, you will be guided through the game world, which is set across various planets. The game offers dungeons, raids, and PvP in the endgame.
SWTOR launched in 2011 with a subscription model and then switched to a Free2Play variant with an optional subscription system in November 2012. Those who play completely for free can enjoy all classes, the base game, and the first expansions. However, to dive into Legacy of the Sith and experience the endgame, you will have to pay.
Start video
SWTOR prepares with new, movie-like cinematic for the release of Legacy of the Sith
Why is it still relevant? Fundamentally, SWTOR has an active community that keeps the MMORPG relevant. Additionally, the name Star Wars alone attracts attention.
Recently, the game made headlines because the team from Bioware is transitioning to Broadsword Online. This allows Bioware to focus on new single-player titles in the future. Broadsword Online, on the other hand, is owned by Rob Denton, who worked on the MMORPG until 2013.
Who should check this out? SWTOR primarily appeals to fans of story-driven games and, of course, to Star Wars fans in particular. However, because of the story, it is also perfect for solo players and newcomers. The group content is challenging but not at the level of WoW or Lost Ark.
The graphics and combat system are also somewhat dated, but even today, it remains one of the best and most popular MMORPGs on the market.
What kind of game is this? The MMORPG RuneScape was originally released in 2001 as a browser game, expanded and renewed over time. However, many players desired to bring back the old flair. So, the developer Jagex released Old School RuneScape for PC and smartphones.
The MMORPG emphasizes interaction with other players, crafting, and trading. You can expect 23 different skills, such as sailing or blacksmithing, a huge open world with hundreds of quests, and numerous ways to shape your character according to your desires.
Why is it still relevant? RuneScape is among the most influential MMORPGs ever. It created a unique sense of freedom and reward that many modern games have lost. Additionally, exciting modes such as Ironman continue to provide players with constant challenges.
However, it is especially Old School RuneScape that enjoys this great popularity. The actually modern RuneScape 3 barely makes it into the top 20 of the ranking.
Who should check this out? Anyone who enjoys old MMORPGs that prioritize trading, crafting, and community will find Old School RuneScape to be the right address.
The old graphics may appear off-putting, but behind the facade is a really good multiplayer game that is also constantly being expanded.
Developer: Amazon Game Studios | Platform: PC | Release Date: September 28, 2021| Model: Buy2Play
What kind of game is this?New World is Amazon’s first MMORPG and made headlines upon release. At its peak, over 913,000 players were online simultaneously, leading to sometimes very long wait times.
It relies on a classless system, where you are what you are currently wearing. There are also 14 different weapons and three different armor classes that you can switch and improve at will. The gear score was first raised in early 2022 and is expected to be increased again with the first expansion in autumn 2023.
With your character, you explore the dark world of Aeternum, where you can complete quests, portal events, dungeons, and even a raid. There’s an enormous amount to collect, which you can process into perfect equipment across the 17 different professions.
In the game world, there are also optional open-world PvP battles where 3 factions fight against each other. You can capture a fort or later participate in an instanced war for territory control.
New World focuses on an action combat system with stamina management and a few active skills. You switch between light and heavy strikes and must block and dodge to survive. If you’re not careful, even a skeleton that is 10 levels lower can become a death trap.
The big highlight is the first expansion, which is supposed to be released in the autumn. There are already some details about the content, but the major marketing push is still missing. After that, interest should at least temporarily rise again, as it did during the fresh start in 2022.
Who should check this out? New World is worthwhile for anyone looking to try an action MMORPG without classes. The combat system resembles Dark Souls more than the traditional tab-targeting systems. You should also have a preference for smaller communities, as only 2,000 players fit on one server.
If you are looking for a lively world where players create exciting situations again and again, New World is the right choice. However, if you are looking for 5 skill bars, world bosses with hundreds of players, and raids, then you are wrong in New World.
Place 7 – Metin 2
Developer: Webzen, Ymir Entertainment | Platform: PC | Release Date: March 5, 2005 | Model: Free2Play
What kind of game is this? Metin 2 is a phenomenon. It was released in Korea in 2005 and came to Germany in 2006. As a Free2Play title, the MMORPG gained increasing popularity and was said to have around 6 million active players in Europe at its peak.
In the game, you can choose from one of five classes. Your choices include Warrior, Ninja, Shaman, Suras, and Lycan, which you can later further specialize. After that, you dive into the game world where grinding plays an important role.
You try to reach the highest level possible by killing heaps of monsters. Through quests and events, you gain only a little experience. Especially from level 30 onward, it gets really tough, and you best farm a dungeon, for which you need an access ticket, which can only be purchased in the shop or from other players.
Why is it still relevant? Although the graphics and gameplay have aged quite a bit, the grinder still enjoys great popularity and even ranks above SWTOR or New World in the rankings.
Metin 2 still receives updates and events, which can also be seen in Google Trends. After that – and after private servers for the MMORPG – it is searched for the most.
The game has a dedicated player base, but outside of this, the title is viewed rather negatively.
Who should check this out? Metin 2 is worth it for anyone who wants to experience an “old school” MMORPG and places little value on story. The sometimes mindless grinding can be done while watching a series. However, one must be resistant to RNG frustrations.
Less recommended is the MMORPG for players who value diverse content and challenging dungeons and raids. The game is also not a visual feast anymore.
Developer: Pearl Abyss | Platform: PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, PS4, PS5 | Release Date: July 23, 2015 | Model: Buy2Play
What kind of game is this?Black Desert is a sandbox MMORPG that offers you many freedoms. You can follow the main quests, improve 11 lifeskills, create your own network of workers and production chains, dive into PvP, or simply build a ship and sail the world.
Although the game has become somewhat more linear over time and recently received some updates for newcomers, freedom still plays a significant role. The choice of 26 different classes and the detailed character editor are highlights of the MMORPG.
Black Desert also impresses with its action-packed combat system, which showcases combos and strong effects. It is easy to learn but hard to master, as you cannot just blindly press any abilities.
The game was first released in Korea, and in the West, we have now caught up well with the content on PC. You can also play the MMORPG on Xbox and PlayStation, but there are some gaps in content and no crossplay with PC.
Start video
BDO Online: Land of the Morning Light – Trailer
Why is it still relevant? Black Desert has recently seen a significant increase in popularity. If we had only taken the data since June, it would have even placed third in this ranking.
However, the game also receives a lot of praise outside of that. Since Pearl Abyss has taken publishing in the West into its own hands, some pay-to-win content has been removed, and there are always cool rewards, such as a rare mount, which you can easily earn through an event.
Who should check this out? Black Desert is a game for grinders, but also for adventurers who want to forge their own path. Nowadays, even PvE fans can have fun with hundreds of quests, the first group dungeon, or the new boss arenas. The latest expansions even feature voiced dialogues and cutscenes.
Thanks to the season servers, the entry is easier than ever and also a lot of fun. However, if you are looking for a classic PvE MMORPG with many dungeons, raids, and no PvP in the open world, this is not the right game for you.
However, many fans couldn’t believe that this was really the end of the character and feverishly speculated about Jon Snow’s further fate.
In the talk show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on May 14, 2016, actor Kit Harington told how he once revealed the big series secret about his character to avoid a ticket.

Jon Snow must decide: Spoiler or Ticket
Kit Harington recounted that the screenwriters made it clear to him that he couldn’t tell anyone that Jon Snow is alive again in Season 6. Only a small group of people in charge of the series knew at that time about the character’s fate.
“You can’t tell your mother, you can’t tell your father, you can’t tell your brother, you can’t tell your friends. No one,” they said to him according to Kit Harington.
However, the actor immediately told his parents.
Here you can watch the YouTube video where Kit Harington told the story:

When asked whether no one else knew about Jon Snow’s fate, the actor admitted that his girlfriend knew as well.
Kit Harington expands a bit on this and confesses: “A few people knew it pretty quickly.” But they were all close people.
No stranger would have found out… except for one policeman. On his way back from his parents, Harington was driving a bit too fast and was subsequently stopped by a policeman.
The actor was then faced with a choice:
You can either follow me to the police station, where I will take down your name, or you can tell me if you are alive in the next season of Game of Thrones […]
I must tell you that it depends on your answer whether I take you to the police station.
Initially, Kit Harington thought it was a joke and laughed. However, when he saw the serious face of the policeman, he hesitantly replied: “I am alive in the next season.”
Expressionless, the policeman nodded at this answer. Then he said: “Drive on, Lord Commander. Keep the speed low so far south of the Wall.”
Another actor accidentally told a colleague what happens towards the end of Avengers: Endgame, thinking the other already knew:
