Diablo 4: All Waypoints on the Map Sorted by Regions

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 3 minutes

All waypoints in Diablo 4 clearly displayed on the map. This way, you can quickly see which port points you need to get to travel comfortably to different locations on the map.

What locations are there? We can divide Sanctuary into 5 regions. In each of them, you will find between 6 and 8 waypoints that you can teleport to. Useful, because this saves you a lot of time that you would otherwise have to walk.

However, not all waypoints are easy to find. In our overview, we show you all the waypoints on the map for each area. This way, you can easily see where you can unlock the port points and whether you have already collected them all.

All waypoints in Scosglen (Locations)

You can find the region Scosglen in the north of the map, where it stretches across a large area. There are a total of 8 waypoints with two fortresses to discover. In the following map, we show you the waypoints and describe below whether there are prerequisites for unlocking them.

Diablo 4: Damage Buckets determine how strong you are – This is how they work

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 2 minutes

You have a powerful hero with rare armor in Diablo 4, but your damage to enemies makes demons burst into laughter? Then you have most likely not paid attention to the Damage Buckets. We will show you what these buckets are, why they are so important, and how they work.

What are Damage Buckets? In Diablo 4, there are many different ways to deal damage, but not every method can convince effectively. Therefore, to explain how you can actually deal massive damage, you essentially use buckets, known as Damage Buckets.

If used correctly, these can multiply your damage several times over. As a result, you can end up with damage numbers in the tens and hundreds of thousands. However, there are several things to be considered.

Many players cobble together a build, throw themselves into battle, and then wonder why the damage dealt is so bad. This is most likely due to the fact that your stats for damage are added instead of multiplied.

Now you will learn how to turn your hero into a monster slayer who is truly deadly.

Start video
Diablo 4: With this trick, you save inventory slots

That’s why your damage in Diablo 4 is so bad

How do Damage Buckets work? The goal is to activate several of these mentioned buckets, i.e., to stack different effects. These then act multiplicatively and significantly increase your damage. All current Damage Buckets that you can use are as follows:

  • Main Attributes
    • Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Willpower
  • [X]% Damage
  • Attack Speed (does not increase your damage, but your DPS if you can activate more attacks)
  • Critical Hits
  • Additive Damage
    • [+]% Damage, Damage VS = Damage against, Damage by, Damage with
  • Vulnerable

More detailed information about the buckets for all classes can be found in this community spreadsheet: Damage Buckets – Overview.

The listed points are considered buckets and must be taken into account in combat to gain more damage from them. However, if you only focus on one of the points, you will not receive damage that increases exponentially.

Within a category, the bonuses are merely added rather than multiplied. Additionally, bonuses on items with an x are subsequently added to the damage.

Note that these are still theories. They are currently examining how exactly the damage is structured, but the current theory seems plausible and is largely regarded as correct by many experts.

How do I recognize multiplicative bonuses on items? In the options of Diablo 4, you can activate two settings that show you which bonuses are additive or multiplicative. To do this:

  • Go to Options
  • Switch to the Gameplay tab
  • Enable Advanced Tooltip Comparison and Advanced Tooltip Information

Now, a + (additive) or an x (multiplicative) will be displayed next to bonuses on your items.

Why are Damage Buckets important? You can also roam through Diablo 4 slaying monsters without considering Damage Buckets, but you will quickly realize in the endgame that you will be missing the disastrous damage. Therefore, to avoid despair, you should definitely have a good build that makes your life in Sanctuary easier.

That’s why we have put together a tier list for the best classes in the endgame with builds: Diablo 4 Tier List: Best Classes in the Endgame with Builds for Solo & Groups

Steam: A new game for 10 € even challenges the ultra-hard German LoL pro, as a clip on Twitch proves

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

Niklot “Tolkin” Stüber is considered one of the toughest German pros in League of Legends, with nerves of steel. The 25-year-old also has a Twitch channel where he mostly showcases LoL, but not always. Now, he has discovered a new game available for €10 on Steam, and he is really struggling with it. Both Trymacs and Papaplatte are also having a hard time with “Only Up!”.

What kind of game is this?

  • “Only Up!” was released on May 24, 2023, on Steam. It costs €10. The game has only 64% positive reviews on Steam. It has been criticized in the reviews for bugs and for primarily selling NFT outfits.
  • It is similar to “Jump King” or “Getting Over It”, a patience game with a high chance of frustrating players.
  • The player must constantly move upwards by jumping. His goal is to reach the top of the world. If he makes a mistake, he falls and has to climb back up again.

Here you can see a trailer for “Only Up!”:

Start video
Only UP! – Official Game Trailer

Who is failing here? Tolkin (25) is a former LoL pro who didn’t quite make it into the super league LEC, but dominated the German regional league “Prime League” instead.

In 2022, he was technically in professional retirement and had started a “normal job”, but then played with a team of “LoL retirees” so strongly that he achieved promotion to the first league. However, he couldn’t play there because Riot’s rules clashed with his stream.

There was a fantastic moment from Tolkin when his team was actually losing, with which he turned around and ultimately won the series.

After a €100 donation, Tolkin wants to make his viewer proud

This is how Tolkin fails at Only Up!: The streamer seems to be in good spirits. Just now, 50 subs came in as a donation, so around €100, which he wanted to repay with a particularly great jump.

Tolkin calls out, “Ben, I want to make you proud. Ben, are you watching? Ben, are you focused?”

Of course, he messes up the jump, crashing past every saving ledge and corner while desperately calling out “Ben” and grappling with his fate.

In the end, somehow, it’s Ben’s fault.

This is the most popular clip of Only Up! in Germany from last week.

Fans see in new action blockbuster on Netflix Warzone as a movie – “This is Live-Action-CoD”

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 2 minutes

Netflix recently released the new action movie Extraction 2. Some fans of Call of Duty: Warzone are reminded of the battle royale.

What kind of movie is this? Since June 16, 2023, the new action-packed Extraction 2 has been available on Netflix. Marvel’s Thor actor Chris Hemsworth fights against all odds and plays a presumed-dead mercenary who, along with his team, rescues a group of people.

The sequel to the comic adaptation runs for just over 2 hours and has received decent ratings – 7.2 on IMDb and 76% on Rotten Tomatoes.

A small discussion has also developed in the Call of Duty: Warzone subreddit. Comparisons are being drawn between the battle royale and the extraction mode DMZ.

You can watch a trailer for Extraction 2 here:

Extraction 2: Trailer for the action movie on Netflix

What do Warzone viewers say about it? In a thread on Reddit, CoD fans discuss the movie and players who have seen it see many parallels to a match in CoD’s battle royale – especially to the DMZ mode (via Reddit.com).

For example, thread starter C4ptainchr0nic writes: ‘In many ways, there are similarities to DMZ.’ HartyFL agrees: ‘I kept thinking, this is live-action CoD.’

There are also exaggerated comparisons to gameplay. ARM7501 writes: ‘Extraction 2 is literally like a round of DMZ. Someone is surrounded by 100 guys throwing Molotovs, and you have to hit the bad guys (Tier 3 AI) about 10 times to kill them.’

The focus on the action of Extraction 2 is often praised. The film is said to be for uncompromising action fans who appreciate when fast-paced scenes take center stage and the story runs alongside it.

The most upvoted comment comes from wittiestphrase and sums it up: ‘The setup of the movie took 10 minutes, and the rest was essentially made up of two set pieces held together by the tape version of exposition.’

How can I watch the movie? Extraction 2 is available on Netflix. If you have a subscription, you can check it out anytime.

If you feel addressed and want to see how Tier 3 AIs of the DMZ are taken down by a Marvel hero, then check out Extraction 2.

If you’d rather wait for the next Marvel blockbuster, then you might be hopeful for the following movie: Dark trailer for the latest Spider-Man villain sparks hope in the community – ‘Please be good unlike Morbius’

The makers of Lost Ark bring a new MMORPG with over 200 abilities and epic battles

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 2 minutes

The new MMORPG is working under the title “The Lord” and is being developed by the Korean company NX3. Smilegate, the company behind Lost Ark, has secured the worldwide publishing rights (except for China).

What kind of game is this? The Lord (previously known as Project L) is intended to be an MMORPG that offers you as much freedom as possible. Classes are omitted. Instead, you can choose from 8 different weapon types and a total of 200 skills. Players are expected to be able to “constantly change” their playstyle.

To ensure particularly beautiful maps and environments in the game, a special 3D scanning technique is used.

For the endgame, only large Realm-vs-Realm battles have been presented so far. In these, up to 600 players can fight simultaneously and in real-time to gain advantages in the world. However, what these advantages specifically are is not known.

When will the game be released? So far, there has been no statement on this. Generally, many details are still missing and gameplay has not yet been shown. It is only known that the MMORPG is to be released for both PC and mobile devices.

What do we know about the developer? NX3 is primarily known for the MMORPG Rohan M. This is a mobile version of Rohan Online, which was released for PC in 2008 and discontinued in 2020.

In June 2022, the studio announced a whole series of new games, including

  • Project Z, an AAA MMORPG for PC and console. They plan to release it worldwide and have brought in developer veterans from EA and Disney.
  • Project T, an MMORPG with Nordic mythology, aimed more at “casual players”, which is only intended for PC.

However, with Project M5, there is also a new mobile MMORPG with side-scrolling gameplay and with Project Avatar a “blockchain hardcore MMORPG” in which NFTs are expected to play a major role.

MMORPG player achieves a feat that was considered impossible for 25 years

Mark Sellner Mark Sellner Reading time 3 minutes

In 1997, the German MMORPG Tibia was released and still has a loyal fanbase today. Crazy things keep happening in the game, but now a player has achieved a feat that was long considered impossible.

What kind of achievement is it? The player Rafaelkiller has managed to become the first “Elite Knight” in Tibia to reach a Magic Level of 15. This may sound unremarkable on paper, especially if one doesn’t know Tibia, but it was long deemed impossible in the game.

Because how one increases their Magic Level in Tibia depends on two important factors. One is the Magic Level itself, which requires more and more experience to be increased. The other is the class you play. This distribution is meant to ensure that knights cannot simply become mages.

How do you increase the Magic Level? It improves when you use mana. It sounds easy, but the aforementioned class scaling comes into play. While a mage needs only 1.1x more mana per level, a paladin needs 1.4x more. The knight, however, needs three times as much mana per level.

In numbers, this means that a mage reaches Magic Level 15 with 50,835 mana, while a knight requires an impossible 11,479,124,800 mana. Additionally, the knight’s skills consume very little mana (between 200 and 340) and have long cooldowns. So it’s a true mammoth task.

Feeling like playing a game that is heavily inspired by Tibia?

Back then, it would have taken about 1092 years

Why was the achievement considered impossible? A lot has changed in Tibia over the years and decades. It is now possible to buy various items that speed up leveling skills as well as mana regeneration. This makes the achievement nowadays extremely time-consuming and expensive, but no longer impossible, as the player has recently proven.

On reddit, the topic is of course also discussed. One player writes: “I remember when people thought it was impossible” and receives lots of upvotes.

Another fan explains the situation and why people believed that: “It was never impossible; it would have just taken several lifetimes. Back then, you would have had to consume mana continuously for about 1092 years and drink mana potions non-stop.

There was neither weapon training nor offline training, nor items that accelerated mana regeneration.”

Another fan shows their amazement and expresses that the achievement is still not an easy feat today, even with all these power-ups available: “With Magic Level 13, I have the highest level knight on my server. To understand how crazy this achievement is – it would cost me at least 20,000 dollars to achieve the 1.5 levels I need to reach 15.”

As a child, I dreamt of this

How do fans react? We would like to share a few quotes with you to give you an impression of the atmosphere. Generally, people are simply excited. The comments come from the Tibia reddit and a news video from the Tibia world on YouTube:

  • RogerBadger writes: “This is a bigger moment than the first level 2,000 character.”
  • EthielStark says: “Nice! I congratulate him. I still remember my childhood when I also played knight and dreamed of being able to use Sudden Death one day.” (A spell unlocked at Magic Level 15)
  • e-Buddy writes: “I remember a time when level 10 was already incredible.”

Christopher Nolan explains why one can see Oppenheimer as an intense horror movie

Marie Friske Marie Friske Reading time 2 minutes

Director Christopher Nolan spoke in an interview about his upcoming film Oppenheimer. He explained why his historical drama can also be seen as a horror film.

With Oppenheimer, the latest film by Christopher Nolan will be released in theaters on July 20, 2023. The director is already world-renowned for massive blockbusters like Inception (2010), Interstellar (2014), and Tenet (2020).

Oppenheimer revolves around the renowned physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer and the invention of the atomic bomb during World War II; a very heavy topic that probably affected the first viewers of the film quite deeply.

Here you can see a trailer for Oppenheimer:

Oppenheimer – New Trailer

“It’s an intense experience because it’s an intense story”

In an interview with the American magazine Wired, Christopher Nolan spoke about his upcoming historical drama.

The director explained that his film is very dark and emotionally crushing due to its themes:

It’s an intense experience because it’s an intense story. I recently showed it to a filmmaker who said it’s a kind of horror film. I cannot disagree with that.

It’s interesting that you mentioned the word nihilism earlier, as I believe I hadn’t managed to name it.

But as I began to finish the film, I started to feel this color that doesn’t appear in my other films, just darkness. It is there. The film struggles with it.

via wired.com

But not only did the other filmmaker get emotionally impacted by the film. For some early viewing audience members, Oppenheimer was probably an intense experience as well. Christopher Nolan shared:

“Some people leave the film completely devastated. They can’t speak. I mean, there is an element of fear that is present in the story and subtly underlying it. […].”

However, the story does not only revolve around the crushing events but also the characters and their relationships with one another, which was very important to the director.

How does the community react to the interview? On reddit users commented on the interview. Many people think that HBO’s series Chernobyl could also pass as horror and describe which scene was the scariest for them.

Other users say they would like to see new genres from Nolan, such as a true horror film under his direction:

  • AH_DaniHodd: “Inception was originally going to be a horror film. I would really like to see Nolan make a proper horror film one day.”
  • ToYouItReaches: “HBO’s Chernobyl could, in my opinion, also be considered horror,”
  • Aramiss134: “The scene [in Chernobyl] where people go underwater is by far one of the most thrilling and terrifying scenes I have seen in recent years.”

With Kraven the Hunter, another Spiderman villain will soon get its own movie. A first trailer provides insight into the plot and raises hopes for the upcoming Marvel title.

Kraven the Hunter joins Venom and Morbius as the third Spider-Man villain to now get its own solo film.

Similar to the other two anti-heroes of Spider-Man, the trailer promises an action-packed, brutal, and dark film centered around the villain.

The first glimpse already shows how Kraven the Hunter acquires his extraordinary powers and provides flashbacks to his childhood. The film will also receive an R-rating, which in the USA represents the age rating for adults.

The supervillain is played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who previously appeared as Pietro Maximoff aka Quicksilver in the MCU. Another well-known face from Hollywood, Russel Crowe, is also on board, playing Kraven’s father.

How does the community react? On YouTube, you’ll find numerous Morbius memes and variations of “It’s Morbin’ Time“. Several users also express positive feedback about the trailer and see potential for the upcoming film. The decision to give the film an R-rating is praised:

  • jplar5334: “I love the moment where Morbius says: ‘Do you want to be morbed?’ and Kraven replies: ‘No, let’s be kraved’ – a really nice moment.”
  • brandoncooper2909: “I was damn skeptical when the film was first announced, but Aaron Taylor-Johnson looks incredible in the role. I’m definitely interested and will buy a ticket now. Please be good unlike Morbius!”
  • DOOMStudios: “I’m glad Kraven is getting ‘Rated R’. But it’s really a shame that Carnage in ‘Venom’ didn’t get the R-rating it truly deserved, with: ‘Let There Be Carnage’.”

When is Kraven the Hunter’s theatrical release? The big game hunter will hit theaters this year: The film will be in German cinemas starting October 5, 2023.

A new gaming keyboard for 180 euros uses proximity sensors – This is the advantage you have when you let yourself be monitored

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 3 minutes

Roccat has introduced its Vulcan II Mini Air. This is a compact gaming keyboard. However, the special feature is the proximity sensors built into the keyboard. But what do players gain from being monitored by their gaming keyboard?

The company Roccat is known to many for its Kone mice and Vulcan keyboards. The Vulcan keyboards feature a unique, open design. Now, Roccat has introduced the Vulcan II Mini Air, a compact keyboard. Compact means that the keyboard ends to the right of the arrow keys and there is also no top function row. The format is even smaller than Tenkeyless (TKL), where only the number pad is missing.

The special aspect of the Vulcan II Mini Air is not the small format, but another feature. According to the manufacturer, the Mini Air is the first optical keyboard with built-in proximity sensors. But what do players gain from this?

Proximity sensor is supposed to significantly improve battery life

According to the manufacturer, the new Vulcan keyboard utilizes proximity sensor technology. This is intended to primarily increase the battery life of the wireless keyboard. While the keyboard offers about 30 hours of runtime during continuous operation, with the help of the proximity sensor, it is said to last up to 750 hours of battery life.

Technical details of the Roccat Vulcan II Mini Air:
Design/InterfaceWireless and wired, 60% keyboard
Key typeOptical switches (Roccat Titan), lifespan of 150 million keystrokes
Programmable keysYes, with Roccat Swarm
IlluminationRGB illumination
CompatibilityPC
FeaturesN-Key rollover and anti-ghosting, proximity sensors for adaptive battery life
Price (RRP)179.99 Euro

How does it work? According to Roccat and Turtle Beach, the built-in proximity sensors are supposed to detect when players step away from the desk. If you get up, for example, because you’re going to dinner or are moving around the apartment, the keyboard is meant to recognize this and turn off certain functions, such as the lighting. This way, battery life is supposed to be maximized.

How well this actually works in practice, we can’t say yet. You’ll have to wait for initial independent tests that have tried out the keyboard for you.

Roccat Vulcan II Mini Air 02
Roccat Vulcan II Mini Air 01
Various detail views of the Roccat Vulcan II Mini Air.

What else does the keyboard offer? The Vulcan II Mini Air continues to rely on the familiar design with RGB illumination that you should know from the Vulcan keyboards. In addition to Roccat’s so-called Easy-Shift[+], to assign multiple functions to keys, the keyboard offers full (N-Key rollover and anti-ghosting technology. Under the keys, you will find the optical Titan switches.

It is still unfortunate that Roccat also uses ABS keycaps for the Vulcan II Mini Air and not higher-quality PBT keycaps. ABS keycaps typically wear out much faster unless they are made using the doubleshot process.

Diablo 4: Merchants are more useful than you think and you should visit them constantly

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

Traditionally, merchants in Diablo are rather ridiculed and are only there to buy your loot from dungeons. However, in Diablo 4, they can actually have some really good stuff. But you need luck and a keen eye.

What do merchants sell? At merchants, you can get various equipment for every slot: weapons, armor, and jewelry. Normally, merchants only sell items that are worse than what you find. But in Diablo 4, you might get lucky:

However, you must play at the corresponding world level where the items can also appear, which means world level 3 for sacred and world level 4 for inherited items. In the guide, we explain how to reach world levels 3 and 4. This also works with curiosities:

That’s why you should visit them every hour: Every hour on the hour, the inventory of the merchants refreshes. From then on, you have the chance for new items. By the way, all merchants in all towns share the same inventory, so you don’t have to travel to every location, just 3 merchants for:

  • jewelry
  • weapons
  • armor

The best place for this is in Cerrigar in Scosglen, where all the merchants are close together. With a bit of luck, you might find items with a power level above 800 here, although the absolutely strongest items currently can only be obtained from rare opponents.

In the video, we explain when you should sell, salvage, or keep items:

Legendaries from merchants, but only with a lot of luck

According to some reports from fellow players and on Reddit, it is even possible to find legendary items at merchants. These are not always necessarily the best, but you are mainly interested in the aspect attached to them. Unique items have not yet been found.

If you find a Legendary that has a power that benefits you and is well “rolled”, buy it. You can check how strong an effect is with 2 settings. You can then enhance a more powerful, rare item with it.

The stronger items at the merchants can become quite expensive and go into the millions. Gold is definitely less of a problem towards the end of the game, but it can become scarce again. Which stats and aspects are useful for your build, we explain in the tier list:

You need a new character in Diablo 4 every 3 months if you want to see all the content

Dariusz Müller Dariusz Müller Reading time 2 minutes

Diablo 4 wants to give players a long-term motivation to play the action RPG with the seasons. However, if you want to see the new content of a season, you have to create a new character every three months.

What are the seasons about?

  • Seasons are major content updates that come with new content like quests, monsters, and tasks, as well as a new battle pass per season.
  • The seasons and the battle pass each run for 3 months. Additionally, there should be 4 seasons per year.
  • The start of season 1 is currently expected around mid or late July.

It has been known since a developer livestream in May 2023 that you must create a new seasonal character each season to play the seasonal content – this was criticized among others by the streamer Asmongold.

Moreover, there were concerns that the battle pass could also be tied to the seasonal character. Now, the head of Diablo 4 has addressed the concern that the battle pass could be tied to the seasonal character.

Is the battle pass tied to the seasonal character? Yes, as Diablo head Rod Fergusson confirmed in response to the question from gaming journalist Paul Tassi, players must also create a new seasonal character if they want to complete the battle pass.

Yes, to participate in the seasonal quest line, the mechanics, the season journey, and the battle pass, you must create a new seasonal character. If you play the campaign with a seasonal character (if you want or still need to finish the story), the season journey and the battle pass will also continue.

Rod Fergusson via Twitter

For you, this means: Even if you do not want to play the new seasonal content but only want to unlock items like cosmetic items in the battle pass, you have to start a new character – in the worst case every three months if you want to carry over every battle pass.

You do not have to replay the campaign again.

If you want to prepare to level up a new character every season, we have some tips for you on MeinMMO on how to level up quickly:

MrBeast exposes YouTuber who made a video about his death

Lydia Lydia Reading time 2 minutes

The 25-year-old American Jimmy Donaldson, known as MrBeast, is the individual with the most subscribers on YouTube. Some other content creators use his name to increase their reach – MrBeast does not like this at all.

What kind of videos are they? On June 19, 2023, MrBeast shared a video in which YouTuber Bolo talks about the illness of the 25-year-old. MrBeast suffers from Crohn’s disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by severe abdominal cramps and digestive issues.

The video is titled: “MrBeast’s illness is worse than you think.” The thumbnail features a photo of MrBeast along with a supposed tweet from the 25-year-old in which he writes that he will be dead in 3 years.

In the video, Bolo discusses the difficulties of living with the disease and claims it is extremely dangerous to his life. The illness is not only incredibly painful but would also shorten MrBeast’s life by approximately 6 years, according to the YouTuber.

MrBeast’s content mainly consists of large-scale and costly actions. However, he started on YouTube like many content creators with Let’s Plays, particularly of Minecraft.

MrBeast complains that people are faking tweets from him

What does MrBeast have to say about this? The content creator cynically thanks: Without this video, he wouldn’t have known that he would be dead in 3 years. In a follow-up tweet, he calls for an end to the trend of using fake posts from him for thumbnails.

Many users agree with MrBeast, either in the comments to his tweet or under the mentioned YouTube video. In fact, there are several tweets and videos that revolve around the alleged death of the influencer.

This, however, does not seem to be the only thing that bothers MrBeast about the video platform right now. He writes in another tweet on June 19 that he sometimes regrets sharing all his knowledge about YouTube.

He thought people would use the knowledge to find inspiration and create innovative content, but instead, there are countless “MrBeast clones” (via Twitter).

What kind of YouTuber is he anyway? MrBeast has officially been the individual with the most subscribers on YouTube since November 2022. With this, he replaced the then king of Twitch, PewDiePie.

His content is a mix of charitable actions and expensive stunts: For example, he paid for a crucial eye operation for 1,000 people or compared a “super yacht” for 1 billion dollars to a 1-dollar boat.

PS5: Fans praise the dark, new style of Final Fantasy XVI – “It was urgently needed”

Dariusz Müller Dariusz Müller Reading time 2 minutes

Final Fantasy XVI takes a new approach with its comparatively dark style, which many fans of the popular game series appreciate.

What is the dark style all about? On June 22, 2023, Final Fantasy XVI will be released, showcasing a new and unusually dark appearance. Compared to many other installments of the popular series, FFXVI does not shy away from depicting raw violence and tells a story centered around war and betrayal.

In a MeinMMO interview with the developers, Naoki Yoshida, producer of FFXVI and head of the MMORPG FFXIV, stated that the team originally did not intend to create a dark and brutal game. Instead, they wanted to craft a story that feels real and brings depth.

However, the game also showcases things that, according to Yoshida, people look away from in real life. Final Fantasy XVI thus has a dark story and atmosphere because themes like war are intended to be portrayed realistically.

How dark Final Fantasy XVI can be, you can also see in the story trailer:

“The game will be much more impressive as a result”

What do fans say about the dark approach? There is currently a thread on Reddit where players respond in over 280 comments to the question of how they find the “mature tone” of FFXVI. Numerous fans praise the darkness and brutality of the RPG.

  • Ultima_Key07: “Oh, definitely. It’s a breath of fresh air that allows the authors not to hold back on a theme they want to tell in this story – and as a result, the game will be much more impressive.”
  • Bmonli: “This was desperately needed for this franchise. Long-time fans are older and can appreciate the more mature things […].”
  • doc_nano: “Yes. I like that it feels more adult, but not in an exaggerated way. There is brutal violence, but it is not presented in a voyeuristic manner. There is swearing, but generally only in situations where it makes sense. […] So far, it feels literally mature, not in the sense of a traditional video game. Amazingly tasteful.”
  • Hyeonwoon: “Damn yes. I love it.”
  • PLDmain: “Definitely, I feel that they are telling a much richer and more intimate story.”

MeinMMO’s community manager Irina Moritz has already played the various demos of Final Fantasy XVI and praised, among other things, the highlights of the story as “absolutely fantastic”.

Pokémon GO makes important change to the ‘Day and Night’ event, which some trainers celebrate

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO, the current event “Day and Night” has been improved for you. The developers announced an important change on June 21 that will please affected players.

What kind of event is this? Since June 16, the event “Day and Night” has been running and revolves around Pokémon that are active either during the day or at night. However, the event caused problems and frustration for players in the first days with its spawns.

Now Niantic shows that they have seen the problems and presents a solution that the community is quite satisfied with.

Players are thankful for the change

What has Niantic done? In the early morning of June 21, Niantic’s support account posted a message for players on Twitter. They write (via Twitter):

Trainers, we have updated “Day and Night” so that Pokémon that are nocturnal will appear from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM local time until the end of the event.

Why is this change so important? In recent days, there have been frequent complaints that the night spawns of the Pokémon were very hard to find. The “Collector’s Challenge Night” is available for all trainers. If successfully completed, they will be rewarded with stardust and a Pokémon encounter.

However, trainers had trouble finding the night Pokémon for this task. After a few days, players from the community showed that one can have luck with an early walk and find the required Pokémon.

Nevertheless, a part of the player base was still dissatisfied with the tasks. Especially the players for whom the night cycle is very short. That Niantic is now intervening and easing this task pleases this part of the players.

What do the players say about it? On Twitter, players thank for the change. Especially players in time zones where nights are very short feel heard. “These are wonderful news. Especially for players with midnight sun. Thank you!” writes PossumPicnic on Twitter.

There are also many jabs in the comments that Niantic took a few days for this change instead of reacting earlier. “People are still angry because it’s obviously a bit late, but you did change it, great job to you!” writes CholorikMadness.

Others write that they do not like the change. They had put in effort in the first days or were out at night on purpose to solve the task. Now it would become much easier for the other players.

Also on Reddit, the change is a hot topic. Here, user blackmetro writes:

Some people said in other complaint threads: “Nothing is wrong, that’s how the event is supposed to work” or “People just don’t understand how day/night works”.
Meanwhile, those whose daily rhythm is unclear or limited, could not fully experience the event.
This is a great change.
I know it doesn’t help to confront the people who were previously mentioned (who stubbornly claimed that the previous day/night setting was Niantic’s intention), but I hope they will take a look at themselves and rethink their future comments before posting anything.

How do you like the change? Do you think Niantic should have left everything as it was, or do you like the easing of the task? Let us know your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other players.

WoW: In a new quest we are to kill one of the best characters to save the world

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

With patch 10.1.5, World of Warcraft receives some time travel quests that are viewed quite controversially. In one quest, you must ensure the assassination of Amber Kearnen, who is one of the best characters in the game.

What kind of quest is it? The quest belongs to the patch Time Rifts, which is supposed to be released this summer. This brings various daily tasks that we will complete with the bronze dragon Chromie, causing great discussions among players.

One quest originally revolved around torturing and imprisoning Alexstrasza, but that was removed even before the release. However, the quest about Amber Kearnen is also receiving criticism.

She was an agent of SI:7, the intelligence agency of Stormwind. Alongside her, Alliance players and especially rogues have experienced some adventures. She appeared in Classic, Cataclysm, Mists of Pandaria, Warlords of Draenor, Legion, and Shadowlands and is considered by our editor Benedict Grothaus to be one of the most legendary women in WoW.

Now she is making a return, but in a mission that is rather sad for many.

Start video
WoW: New cinematic ‘Opening the Path’ shows the new plan of the dragons

Amber Kearnen must die and we are the murderer

What is the quest about exactly? In the expansion Legion, Amber Kearnen was found dead with a knife in her back. As part of the rogue quest, investigations need to be conducted into how the murder occurred. Players discovered that SI:7 had been infiltrated by the Nathrezim.

More about this here: An NPC in Shadowlands reminds me of my saddest moment in WoW.

Together with Chromie, we must ensure that the death of Amber Kearnen actually happens, as it is supposed to be crucial for the players to discover the false Mathias Shaw and for the story to take its course.

However, it is somewhat harsh that we, as players, must execute the assassination ourselves in the end. In the quest it says:

Amber: I have assassins hunting me, so I would be grateful for an escort.

<Amber gives you a small smile.>

<Stab Amber Kearnen.>

So we are the rogue who stabs Amber and whose knife is found in her back.

How are players reacting? Some users criticize the quest because you become a murderer instead of saving Amber. At WoWHead there is a whole article about what the actual problem with this task is.

There, the author explains that while players have helped in the past for horrible things to happen to maintain the correct timeline, in this case there might have been another solution.

The decisive event was not the murder, but the uncovering of the actions of the Nathrezim. Amber tells us in the quest that the message is intended for Lord Jorach Ravenholdt, the leader of the Uncrowned. If players help Amber deliver the message, the discovery that Matthias Shaw was replaced by a Dreadlord would still happen – it would even be uncovered by the same people and the same organization.

At the same time, an innocent soul could have been spared from death.

wow amber kearnen dead

That events can remain somewhat flexible has already been shown by the books War of the Ancients and Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects, the author believes. And he also criticizes the bronze swarm itself because Chromie is still trying to ensure that Nozdormu does not become Murozond, which is a necessary event in the overall story.

What do you think of the new time travel quests? Do you like the themes, or would you rather find more flexible solutions instead of becoming a perpetrator yourself?

Twitch streamer meets DrDisrespect where it hurts: “He is indeed more loyal to Nickmercs than to his wife”

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

There is a dispute over the influencer Nickmercs at Call of Duty. YouTuber DrDisrespect has solidarized with him, but is now receiving a reality check from Twitch streamer Hasan HasanAbi Piker.

This is the situation:

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

What was the statement? The Twitch streamer HasanAbi commented on this conflict with the sentence: DrDisrespect is more loyal to the fact that Nickmercs is getting his skin back than to his wife.

This refers to a situation from 2017, when DrDisrespect was still relatively new on Twitch and a successful streamer in PUBG. Suddenly, he took a longer break from streaming. He returned without a wig and sunglasses and confessed that hehad been unfaithful to his wife, regretted it, and wanted to make amends.

Since then, jokes and sayings about this incident have circulated repeatedly.

He would never say it to my face, because that would have consequences

How does DrDisrespect react? He seems affected by it. In a stream, he said everyone should take care of themselves and the people close to them.

He called HasanAbi a “fat con artist” who would never say it to his face because he would then “feel the consequences.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCT9cfCKmTA

He is dead to me

How does Nickmercs react? He reacts quite angrily. The streamer says he never had problems with HasanAbi, but after the comment, the “motherfucker is dead to him.”

It is particularly tasteless because DrDisrespect and his wife just had their 15th wedding anniversary.

Nickmercs does not want to apologize for the tweet; the incident ultimately showed who really stands by him and who has always disliked him.

How does HasanAbi react? He finds it all rather funny. He says:

  • He and DrDisrespect’s wife both know what it’s like to be in the crosshairs of Two-Times in
  • He just made a comment that a million people before him have made
  • At least he is not 42 years old and has to appear in cosplay every day
  • The threat to beat him up for a joke was never meant seriously. Hasan suspects this could be a contractual requirement of Kick: “Speak badly about Hasan, and we’ll give you $30 million”

HasanAbi mocked DrDisrespect in a parody, saying he gets the hottest bitches:

Viewers seem to see DrDisrespect’s own physical presence somewhat critically. Hasan Abi is 1.93 m tall, 10 years younger, and apparently fit. How does DrDisrespect even think he can intimidate him, a commentator asks.

Luckily, we will probably never find out how a physical duel between the two alpha males looks like, but now we know what it looks like when they duel verbally.

HasanAbi is considered politically left-leaning. He felt this when he once ordered a PC:

You will also encounter new Cryptos among the Rocket grunts. Niantic has announced the following new Cryptos with Team GO Rocket:

  • Crypto-Alola-Geodude
  • Crypto-Ledyba
  • Crypto-Hitmontop
  • Crypto-Charmander
  • Crypto-Lurantis

Egg changes: From the 12-km eggs that you receive during the event, you can hatch the following Pokémon:

  • Larvitar*
  • Absol*
  • Purrloin*

  • Zurrokex
  • Gladiantri*
  • Skallyk*
  • Kapuno*
  • Pam-Pam*
  • Iscalar*
  • Algitt
  • Molunk
  • (Pokémon marked with an * can be encountered as shiny)

What are the highlights? Participating in the event can be really worth it for you because there are new strong Pokémon. Crypto-Lurantis has already been celebrated hard since the announcement of the event because its evolution, Drakloz, is among the best attackers in Pokémon GO. The crypto variant hits even harder.

In addition, you can catch Pam-Pam for the first time as shiny. You will then receive it with luck from the 12-km eggs.

Furthermore, you can make your Crypto Pokémon forget the weak move Frustration and teach the fighters something stronger.

94% off on Steam, 96 points on Metacritic – A shooter milestone is now available for 5 €

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 2 minutes

It has already been 16 years since Bioshock cleaned up the shooter genre. Currently, Bioshock Remastered is 75% off for only €5 on the GOG platform.

Why is Bioshock considered a milestone? The shooter has succeeded like no other of its time in uniting atmosphere, environmental storytelling, and a strong story into an exciting adventure. 96 points on Metacritic speak volumes (via metacritic.com).

Even now, Bioshock still captivates its players, even though the innovative ideas from back then no longer blow us away.

If you enjoy a good story, appreciate a crackling atmosphere, and like a little spookiness, then go for it. If you haven’t played Bioshock yet, the shooter is now available for €5 on GOG.

Here you can also find a trailer for the game:

What do players say about Bioshock? On Steam, more than 22,000 user reviews have accumulated since release, and most agree: 94% of the reviews give the title a thumbs up (via Steam).

Here are some relevant reviews for the game, with pros and cons:

  • ¡ Shulia on Steam: ‘BioShock is widely regarded as a groundbreaking title in the gaming industry, offering a captivating narrative, a unique setting, engaging gameplay mechanics, and thought-provoking themes.’

User ¡ Shulia also addressed the weaknesses: The combat can feel repetitive after a while, the level design is too linear by today’s standards, and the stealth gameplay is a bit too simple. However, the many details and the overall storytelling make up for it:

  • Camdonius on Steam: ‘One of the best games I have ever played! The atmosphere and environmental storytelling are fantastic. Audio logs provide emotionally charged narratives. The levels are rich in design and full of details.’

Camdonius notes, however, that there were occasional crashes. Overall, it is a unique and exciting experience that even offers some sequels if you’re in for more.
