Diablo 4: Which class suits me? All 5 classes in overview with builds & gameplay

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 5 minutes

The new action RPG Diablo 4 will offer 5 classes at release. MeinMMO helps you find the best class for you.

What classes are there? Diablo 4 launches with 5 different classes:

  • Barbarians focusing on close combat and weapons
  • Druids who cast nature magic and transform
  • Hunters who fight with bow, poison, and dagger
  • Necromancers with their undead companions
  • Sorceresses who harness the elements for destructive magic

In Diablo 4, the classes are fundamentally different, not just through varying armors or a few spells. Each even has a unique class mechanic only available to that class.

Which class is the best? Generally, all classes are quite balanced and have their strengths and weaknesses. Play what suits you best. You can find the ranking in our class tier list for Diablo 4.

Our list here is meant to give you an impression of which class suits you. Because no matter how good a class may be: if it doesn’t suit you, it will neither be fun nor powerful.

How good is the Barbarian?

This is what Barbarians can do: Barbarians rely on pure melee combat and have few options to attack opponents from a distance. However, they can unleash earthquakes and summon the spirits of their ancestors with their rage.

The melee fighters rely on pure brutality and physical power to defeat opponents. As a unique class mechanic, Barbarians can carry 4 weapon sets, which they automatically switch when a skill requires a certain type of weapon.

How strong are Barbarians? Barbarians have so far proven to be weaker, as they had to endure a lot and had difficulty reaching opponents. However, with the buff, they can withstand more and deal more damage. Beginners who do not want to play as a glass cannon will find the Barbarian a good choice.

The Barbarian suits you if …

  • … you prefer an offensive, aggressive playstyle
  • … you can do without magic and ranged combat
  • … you want to have many weapons to choose from
  • … you want to be the brutal warrior who crushes enemies into the ground

This is how you level the Barbarian: We recommend an ancestor build for leveling: Level build for the Barbarian – This is how you level quickly and easily

How good is the Druid?

This is what Druids can do: Druids use the magic of nature to enchant opponents, strengthen allies, or transform into bears and wolves to crush enemies. They can take on various roles and fight in melee or ranged combat.

With their magic, it’s even possible to briefly summon companions or immobilize opponents. As a unique class mechanic, Druids can offer sacrifices to the spirits to receive permanent buffs.

How strong are Druids? Previously, Druids were among the best classes that are also difficult to master. In the beta, they were by far the weakest class, but have since moved up a bit. In any case, you’ll need to engage well with your skills as a Druid to find a good build.

The Druid suits you if …

  • … you want to play a class connected to the forest and nature
  • … you always want the option for different playstyles
  • … you particularly like the idea of a shapeshifter
  • … you like to cuddle with trees and sleep on moss

This is how you level the Druid: We recommend a pet build for leveling: Level build for Druid – This is how you level quickly and easily

How good is the Sorceress?

This is what Sorceresses can do: Sorceresses weave elemental magic, allowing them to crash meteors onto opponents, summon snowstorms, or cast lightning bolts. They utterly disdain close combat.

With their magic, Sorceresses can not only deal damage but also control opponents. The unique class mechanic allows Sorceresses to create their own spells by applying passive effects to active spells with additional skill slots.

How strong are Sorceresses? Traditionally, magic classes like the Sorceress are at the top of tier lists. They take little damage but deal so much that hardly any opponent can reach them: the definition of a “glass cannon,” can deal much damage but take little. This is also the impression so far, and even with nerfs, Sorceresses should remain high on the strength scale.

The Sorceress suits you if …

  • … you like to play “glass cannons”
  • … you want to play the strongest spellcasting class in the game
  • … you want to build your own spells
  • … you enjoy blowing opponents up with huge explosions

This is how you level the Sorceress: We recommend a Shock/Frost build for leveling: Level build for Sorceress – This is how you level quickly and easily

How good is the Hunter?

This is what Hunters can do: Hunters rely on combat with various weapons in melee and ranged combat. They alternate shots with bows or crossbows and attacks with daggers and other melee weapons in spectacular combos.

In addition, Hunters fight with poisons and shadow abilities. As a unique class mechanic, Hunters can choose one of three specializations that fundamentally change their playstyle.

How strong are Hunters? The predecessor classes of the Hunter were always relatively strong classes, although difficult to master. Based on current experience, the Hunter will likely position itself in the middle range in Diablo 4 and be easily accessible even for beginners.

The Hunter suits you if …

  • … you want a lot of variation within the class
  • … you like to play mobile, agile classes
  • … assassins in games particularly suit you
  • … you want the choice between melee and ranged weapons
  • … you want opponents to have no idea what they are dying from

This is how you level the Hunter: We recommend a blade build for leveling: Level build for Hunter – This is how you level quickly and easily

Diablo 4 features huge bosses like an MMO – And they drop really good loot

How good is the Necromancer?

This is what Necromancers can do: Necromancers use their magic to summon skeletons and zombies, as well as to strengthen themselves. With corpses, they can cast spells that damage opponents or strengthen their armor.

Their magic allows the necromancer to either fight actively themselves or send hordes of undead minions into battle. As a unique class mechanic, Necromancers have the ability to dictate how their spells work with the “Book of the Dead”.

How strong are Necromancers? In the beta, Necromancers were by far the strongest class, even able to function with just one button. However, the necromancers have since been significantly nerfed.

The best build in the beta of Diablo 4 is even too strong for Blizzard, says: ‘There are limits’
von Benedict Grothaus

Now, Necromancers have become relatively weak and are already considered by some experts as the worst class. However, they are not too far behind.

The Necromancer suits you if …

  • … you are totally into pet classes and want others to fight for you
  • … you like to play classes with dark fantasy
  • … you think scythes as weapons are really cool
  • … you want to dominate the battlefield with your undead warriors

None of the classes suit me – What now?

The 5 presented classes are the first you can play in Diablo 4. More classes will come later, but exactly when is still unknown.

The 6th class will most likely be a Paladin or Crusader – exactly the class that most of you desire. Such an archetype is still missing in Diablo 4 and is expected to appear with the first expansion.

If you are still uncertain about what you want to play, we have prepared a quiz for you. Just answer 10 short questions, and we will reveal what suits you:

A new survival game is coming to Steam, wants to be like Minecraft for adults, but has not shown its best feature yet

Leya Jankowski Leya Jankowski Reading time 3 minutes

Later this year, the new co-op survival RPG Enshrouded will be released on Steam. MeinMMO editor-in-chief Leya Jankowski got an exclusive insight into the gameplay of the game. Only now does she understand what makes the game so special and how it sets itself apart from other genre representatives like Valheim.

When I saw the first trailer for the survival game Enshrouded, I thought: That looks pretty cool. But why should I play it when Valheim is out at the same time? At first glance, the games look quite similar.

My opinion about Enshrouded changed when I was able to see detailed alpha gameplay. 

The developer studio of Enshrouded is based in Germany and is called Keen Games. You may know them from Portal Knights. That’s a now 7-year-old sandbox action RPG that has a vibrant community and is often praised for its great mix of sandbox and RPG elements.

This experience of developing a long-lasting service game with the corresponding community build-up is something Keen Games brings with them and lets flow into the much more mature Enshrouded.

Enshrouded Combat Gameplay Trailer

Voxel game world makes the difference

Antony Christoulakes is co-founder and creative director at Keen Games. He visited our office in Munich to show us the alpha gameplay of Enshrouded and tell us more about the game.

Somewhat nervously, Antony takes us through the game world of Enshrouded with his character. Many people haven’t seen the new project from Keen Games yet. The first tests are still for a very small circle.

We start off as you would in any survival game: with a nearly naked character, we are thrown into the wilderness and have to survive somehow while monsters are out for us.

Up to that point, I think: The environment and graphics are quite nice, but the game doesn’t stand out much yet. That changes when we get to the base building in the gameplay presentation.

While Antony talks about the features and builds his little house at the same time, my eyes widen. In the description texts for Enshrouded, it already states that we are dealing with a voxel environment. What that ultimately means for the gameplay of Enshrouded only becomes clear to me when I see it.

What does voxel mean? In video games, a voxel is a tiny part of the game environment. Games that use voxel technology often have a blocky aesthetic, as a voxel looks like a small cube. The most famous example of a voxel game is Minecraft.

The base is made up of tiny parts, creating an incredible variety. But in the game world of Enshrouded, everything can also be broken down into its individual parts.

In terms of the game’s aesthetics, I didn’t fully grasp from the previous trailers that it is a voxel game world. Keen Games is working with their own engine to be able to present the game world this way.

Focus is on creativity and community

Like in Minecraft, you can do whatever you want with the game world. So it’s not particularly special on its own.

However, this is combined with a mature environment and RPG elements, where you can develop your character with skill points and a talent tree. 

You have a quest where you need to loot resources from a horde of bandits? Why not dig a tunnel through the world and rob the bandits from behind? That might be more convenient than fighting.

Are you a basement child at heart and hate the sun? Then start a mole clan and build your base underground.

As we talk about the possibilities, Antony explains that they want to offer a creative experience with Enshrouded. They hope the community will quickly get creative and use the building blocks of the environment in ways the developers can hardly imagine themselves – even at the risk of it ending up like Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom:

Nintendo wanted to foster players’ creativity with a new feature in Zelda, but they only build penises
von Dariusz Müller

While Enshrouded can be played solo, the game is heavily geared towards co-op. The appeal lies in building something together and helping each other create a cool base.

Enshrouded will be a pure PvE game, and the survival elements should be harmless. For example, food is supposed to provide buffs, but starving won’t send you straight to the afterlife. The survival game is designed more for relaxing evening gaming with friends.

Strength is not expressed in previous trailers

Enshrouded could hit Steam just as hard as Valheim, without copying Valheim. According to Antony, the game was developed long before the release of Valheim. 

How good the game will ultimately be is, of course, hard to say after a one-hour alpha gameplay presentation. But it makes me at least optimistic that a cool survival RPG is coming our way that you might enjoy if you like games like Minecraft, Stardew Valley, Conan Exiles, or Valheim. 

It’s impressive how smooth the graphics of the game are, even though it has a huge voxel world with beautiful biomes. In the presentation, I particularly liked a magically-themed underground cave with glowing mushrooms. I would love to mine that for a mushroom apartment.

Based on the insight I received, I can at least recommend putting Enshrouded on your watch list and hope that there will soon be more insights into the voxel game world for you.

Diablo 4: “I will not play any season after 1.” – Biggest MMO streamer on Twitch criticizes the endgame

Niko Hernes Niko Hernes Reading time 3 minutes

Asmongold is the largest MMORPG streamer on Twitch. In his stream, he reacted to a video that shows the endgame experience of Diablo 4 from level 83. He gives his two cents on many points.

Asmongold often expresses critical opinions about MMOs and Blizzard games like Diablo 4 and shares his thoughts. This time, he commented on the endgame and the seasons in Diablo 4.

In a livestream, Asmongold reacted to a video from the YouTube channel DM: Diablo 4. The original video discusses the endgame of Diablo 4 and how the YouTuber perceives it.

You can find an overview of Asmongold here:

Start video
Career and life of Asmongold in 3 minutes – What makes him special?

This is a massive barrier to entry

DM: Diablo 4 believes that the skill tree and paragon boards are only complicated at first glance and are actually easy to understand. Asmongold agrees but wishes for an even more complex system.

When the topic shifts to the early game of Diablo 4, Asmongold mentions that the experience in the early gameplay is less enjoyable for the Barbarian and Druid than for the other classes. Just change the modifiers on the abilities and the problem is solved

What does Asmongold think of the endgame? Asmongold sees the repeated collection tasks and the need to raise reputation in the seasons as problematic.

I find it problematic that players might have to farm reputation again and redo time-consuming side quests in the seasons. This is a massive barrier to entry. I don’t think I will play any Diablo season after the first if I have to do all of this more than twice.

Asmongold at 14:56 on YouTube

Many other players also have fears about the upcoming seasons in Diablo 4.

In the reaction, he especially agrees with the criticism regarding casual players. DM: Diablo 4 believes that very few casual players would collect the Lilith statues or level up the paragon board. Asmongold thinks it would be good if an item would help find the Lilith statues without needing to look it up.

The difficulty of the new hack-and-slash is also mentioned: Many players find Diablo 4 to be too easy. Asmongold finds the difficulty to be just right. Especially for casual players, it is suitable and the 4 world tiers offer a good balance.

Asmongold praises the side quests and the world’s environment: They are cool, especially for casual players. He would like to see more in this direction.

Nerfs are also criticized

What is the problem with the nerfs? The video mentions the balance patches and nerfs. Asmongold agrees that the Whirlwind Barbarian needed to be nerfed: However, he does not like the playstyle that the nerfs require. The Twitch streamer criticizes the forced rotation needed to trigger the good abilities.

  • It feels bad to use the builder abilities.

Asmongold describes the stats in Diablo 4 as boring. Especially the categorization of different damage types is, according to him, better and more understandable in Diablo 3.

Asmongold especially praises the campaign of Diablo 4

But praise also finds its place in the video. Asmongold rates the campaign in Diablo 4 as a 10 out of 10. It is better than in Lost Ark or Path of Exile. He agrees with DM: Diablo 4 that casual players are the key factor for Diablo 4’s success and not the hardcore players.

What kind of video is this? In a video from June 10, MrBeast compared various boats. Starting with a boat that cost the YouTuber only a dollar and immediately began to sink, through several yachts, to a floating city worth one billion dollars that he invited his subscribers to.

MrBeast breaks his own record

How is the video performing? To put it mildly: quite well. Alongside reactions from big streamers like MontanaBlack and xQc, numerous fans flocked to the video.

The YouTuber already shared a few hours after the release that the video has surpassed even his elaborate re-creation of the Netflix hit Squid Game. This had been MrBeast’s most successful video to date and briefly held the record for the most views in the first 24 hours.

With his latest coup, the YouTuber shattered his own record.

How many views did the video receive? One day after the release of the video, MrBeast showed the performance within the first 24 hours. Ultimately, the yacht video surpassed the “Squid Game” re-creation by 5 million views, gathering 47.5 million views.

Destiny 2: Weekly Reset on 13.06. – Leaderboard Start, but without Gold

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 5 minutes

This week, players of Destiny 2 can expect a dash of action in the relaxed but error-plagued Season 21. You can start the Nightfall for the top players today. However, there is a little catch, and it’s not gold-plated.

What’s happening this week: This week, some action is coming to the relaxed, but error-plagued Summer Chicken error codes of Season 21 in Destiny 2. But at least the start of the Nightfall for the top players is happening today. And that’s where you can let off some steam.

  • The Nightfall is starting a bit earlier this season than usual, due to the removal of the seasonal power increase and the changes in the requirement levels.
  • This means that players have the chance to earn exotic materials and master weapons starting today.

However, please note: This only applies to the weekly Nightfall for the top players. The Conqueror gold node for the title will still only be accessible in week 7. This means that you can only gild the title Conqueror from then on.

Destiny 2: “Season of the Depth” lets Guardians dive into the water

What are the requirements for the top players? The power level requirement is 1,840. However, in the hardest PvE mode of Destiny 2, you will be robbed of your power so that all players are 25 power levels below the enemies – so at 1,815. Anyone who is not familiar with this will feel it significantly.

At the start, Bungie has selected “The Lightblade” and is dangling the masterpiece of the grenade launcher “Wendigo GL3” in front of you. Furthermore, The Devil’s Cave, The Corrupted, Fallen Out of Favor, Fallen S.A.B.E.R., and PsiOps Battleground: Moon are in the rotation.

If you want it even harder, you can also lower your power level through your gear and play the activity at -40 power level on the Esoterickk level.

The important information about activities from June 13 to 20.

Vanguard: Nightfall – The Trial by Fire

  • The Lightblade, in Savathun’s Throne World
    • This week, players will fight against the “Lightblade” in the Nightfall strike. He is considered a potential successor to Oryx and can lay down a decent speed when enraged. Defeat him before he uses the light for the wrong purposes.
Earn this week’s Nightfall weapon: “Wendigo GL3”. The grenade launcher will finally be available in the master version starting this week.

Crucible – This is the rotating PvP activity

  • The two modes Control and Dynamic Control are running this week in PvP.

Here’s where to find the weekly bonus

  • With the Vagabond, you will receive a boost to your rank points this week. It’s time to gild your Dredgen title.

Endgame: Raid Challenges and Dungeon Rotation

Farmable endgame in a weekly rotation: In further endgame, the legacy rotations are waiting. This means that both the rotating raid and the rotating dungeon are farmable. You can complete the individual encounters repeatedly to obtain various items and complete your collection. This includes possible exotics that are available in these contents.

  • The weekly legacy raid is the “Glass Chamber” with the exotic “Vex Mythoclast”.
  • Additionally, in the Dungeon “The Broken Throne” you can find extra top loot with the exotic bow “Wishender”.

Bungie will continue to expand these activity rotations from Season 22. Then players will not only be able to play raids and dungeons as “legacy” but also old exotic missions.

In the Broken Throne, you can obtain the current best anti-barrier weapon, the “Wishender”

Weekly Activities

With the weekly reset, several activities and challenges have been updated again, offering players a variety of rewards and progress and making better guardians through repetition.

  • In the new Season 21, guardians need to dive to the ocean floor of Titan, which is infested by the Taken and the Hive. They seek something at the bottom of its methane ocean. This promises the solution to ancient secrets and more information about the origins of the Witness.

Lightfall – Weekly Campaign Mission

  • “First Contact”
    • In the first mission, you establish first contact and get to know Strand for the very first time as you wander through Neomuna with your guardian. Strand is the new subclass from Lightfall and then there’s something you need to do …

Ascendant Challenge – Dreaming City

If you still need triumphs from the Dreaming City, pay attention: The Corruption reveals new accesses with a sip of “Queen’s Leaf Tincture”.

  • Petra Venj can be found in the area of Rheasilvia in the Dreaming City. The entire zone is under the 3rd curse week. The 4th Ascendant Challenge must be mastered.

All Sources for Top Loot in Season 21 of Destiny 2

This is the new max level: In the new Season of Depth (Season 21), the power level does not increase any further. The maximum power level of your gear that you can reach remains at 1,810, and you can enjoy the new seasonal content in a relaxed and stress-free manner, while gathering your resources substantially through the fishing activity.

  • In Lightfall, new guardians start at power level 1,600.
  • The soft cap is at 1,750.
  • The powerful cap is at 1,800.
  • With top loot, you can reach the hard cap of 1,810.

Destiny 2: Server Down for Update 7.1.0.2 – All Patch Notes and Info

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 6 minutes

As every Tuesday, players can expect a routine and scheduled downtime of the servers for Destiny 2 today. Despite the annoyance and frustration, Bungie continues to work on improving the stability and reliability of the server infrastructure. MeinMMO will keep you informed before and during the update in this article.

This is what you need to know today: Destiny 2 faced a massive server outage on the last holiday that caused a lot of frustration and long downtimes for players. The fact that players hate server downtimes is therefore no surprise.

Nevertheless, as Bungie also emphasized, server issues and downtimes are unavoidable, as the complexity of the game and the number of players online at the same time pose a challenge for such a comprehensive live service game like Destiny 2.

Today’s update, however, is happening as planned, so with early notification from Bungie, allowing players to mentally prepare for it throughout the day. The developer is also aware of the importance of smooth server performance and will try to keep the server downtime as short as possible.

Update history for maintenance 7.1.0.2 on June 13:

9:22 PM: Update is live. On PC, it is 111.5 MB in size and you should be able to download it in the coming minutes. However, bear in mind that there could still be queues.

Otherwise, we hope Destiny 2 starts off stable for the rest of the evening. Thank you for sticking with us.

8:50 PM: The support team has found the issues that caused today’s delayed maintenance. Therefore, Destiny 2 will be online shortly. Bungie thanks you for your patience and apologizes for any inconveniences. You will also learn in the Weekly Reset on MeinMMO what’s new in Destiny 2 this week.

7:45 PM: Round 2 of the server downtime – Destiny extends maintenance again. However, not with a fixed end time, but only with a further hour of delay. The end of the downtime could therefore be around 8:45 PM – if everything goes well.

On Twitter, the guardians are also already warning Bungie about a “This Week at Bungie” blog from May 18 which states: “we take Destiny 2 offline for about an hour and a half on our update days, […] to make the player experience more stable and reliable“.

6:15 PM: While Destiny 2 is still offline, you can read about which errors Bungie has fixed in today’s maintenance update. We will link the exact patch notes at the end of this article as always.

5:45 PM: Bad news. Bungie has just extended the downtime. Apparently, today again not everything is going according to plan – what exactly is going on remains uncertain. The support team will provide further information in 1 hour.
Start video
Destiny 2: Teaser trailer for the DLC “The Final Form”

Maintenance on June 13 – All times for server downtime

These times are important today: Bungie has informed players via Twitter about the exact times. The planned downtime for today is currently 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Here is the exact schedule for the maintenance:

  • At 4:00 PM German time, maintenance will start in the background on all platforms.
  • From 5:15 PM, the servers will go offline and players will be automatically kicked from all activities.
  • The update 7.1.0.2 will be implemented during this time and will then be rolled out gradually.
  • The expected login should then be possible again around 7:00 PM, at the weekly reset.
  • The ongoing background maintenance will end at 8:00 PM if everything goes smoothly.
Important: As long as the background maintenance is running, there may be connection issues in the game. Also, queues may occur immediately after the update when logging in.

Additionally, please keep in mind that third-party applications as well as the official companion app may also not be correctly accessible for a while, so you may not be able to use them.

What changes with update 7.1.0.2 in Season 21

Although the full patch notes will only be available at the time of release, we would like to provide you with insights into some of the issues and changes Bungie plans to address.

MeinMMO first lists the issues that Bungie is already aware of and that will definitely be fixed today:

  • The additional bonus for the weekly quest “Last Wish,” granted by Hawthorne, was unintended and will now be removed. Bungie had left this error in the game for a while in favor of the players, but will now fix it.
    • With today’s patch, players will receive a deep sight weapon.
  • The armor exotic “Evening Meditation of Radius” will be reactivated. Bungie has redesigned it so that it will no longer behave explosively with certain weapons.
  • For solar gauntlets, the increased duration of solar grenades will be restored.
  • The strange interactions of the Titan exotic Khepri’s Horn will also be fixed, so it will be reactivated as well.
  • A problem where certain grenades could penetrate barriers and the shield of the Nightfall will be fixed.
  • The PvP perk “Collective Action” will be nerfed (10% damage increase instead of 20%).
  • The new competitive sniper rifle “Jumping Overreach” will gain a larger reticle when aiming to make it easier to use.
destiny2-server-down-cayde6
Cayde would recommend: Just press all the buttons, that should be fine!

These issues are still on Bungie’s to-do list for resolution:

  • Bungie is investigating performance issues when loading the “Everversum/ Store” tab.
  • The “Recommendations” screen will only display during dive activities after the timer for completing the activity has expired.
  • During the mission Operation Thunderbolt (Nightfall), there is a scannable console that does not include or provide intended audio, dialogue, or triumph content when scanned.
  • Ranks from the previous season over 100 are displayed incorrectly on the “Journey” tab.
  • PvP players are increasingly reporting an unsustainable lobby imbalance in Trials and competitive lobbies.
  • The new exotics of the Season of Depth are not dropping from the Neomuna Vex event.
  • In the Hypernet Strike on Neomuna, a player’s death in the final boss arena can cause that player’s ghost to get stuck in the ground.
  • After focusing an adept Trials weapon from Saint-14, it does not show that the original requirement of having a 7-win Trials card still exists for subsequent focusings.
  • The freezing while using the new Titan exotic “Thorn Guardian” can sometimes cause players to lose the class ability Barricade. Respawning after the player’s death or equipping and re-equipping the exotic will restore the intended class ability.
  • The Courtier Longcoat chest piece for Warlocks has a hole under the right arm.
  • Improved crafted weapons cannot apply or preview memory shaders.
  • The cooldown timer for the exotic scourge weapon “The Navigator” lacks a description and shows as an empty timer when activated.
  • The pop-up “Enhanced Heavy Knife” is not displayed for the Hunter exotic “Athrys’ Embrace” when activated in the Crucible. Players should note that it still functions as intended; it just lacks the visual display.
  • The blinds of the shotgun “Until Return” are separated from the weapon.
  • The exotic bow “Wishender” does not reliably shoot through Cabal and Hydra shields.
  • The Titan exotic helm “Helm of Saint-14” does not function as expected.
  • Using the exotic Warlock gloves “Escape Artist” to refresh the sentient Arc Soul before it is fully deactivated causes the rate of fire of the soul to decrease until it is fully deactivated.
  • The damage boost of the Hunter exotic “Lucky Pants” is inconsistent and currently leads to a damage increase of up to 600% with special use.
  • The change to the platform setting “Others can communicate via voice, text, or invites” is only effective after the game has been restarted.
  • Error codes are still under investigation – including PLUM and MONKEY.
  • Player name changes are not infinitely customizable via bungie.net. Several “number guardians” are still waiting for the option to change their player name again instead of receiving the message “You have no name changes available.”

Transparent communication and regular updates are also crucial in Destiny 2 to regain players’ trust and ensure they remain informed about the progress of bug fixes.

What do you think about server downtimes in Destiny 2? What measures would you like to see from the developers to reduce such downtimes in the future and improve the player experience? Feel free to share in the comments if you notice any other bugs that we haven’t listed in this article yet.

Despite the last DLC “The Final Form”, an end to Destiny is still not in sight. Because it looks like Bungie is planning a large Destiny universe that will go beyond the known boundaries:

GTA Online: Update “Mercenaries” is online – With a comfort feature that has been long overdue

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 13 minutes

The summer update 2023 of GTA Online is here. Here you will find a brief overview of the most important contents and why a small feature is almost the highlight.

On June 13 around noon, the update “San Andreas Mercenaries” arrived in GTA Online. It includes new vehicles, upgrades for heavy equipment, fresh missions, a ton of bug fixes, and some quality of life features.

For example, it no longer matters what level you are at: You can now directly buy the best body armor. But it gets even better. With a phone call, all destroyed vehicles can now be repaired at Mors Mutual Insurance – it only took almost 10 years.

Below you will find some highlights of the update and here you can watch the trailer for San Andreas Mercenaries:

GTA V Title Update 1.67 – Patch Notes

What’s in the update? The story revolves around the Los Santos Angels, a group of mercenaries looking to launch profitable operations against the security firm Merryweather Security. Of course, you are right in the middle of it.

In total, there are 6 new missions for up to 4 players. However, you need the large aircraft “Avenger” and some new extras to start the missions. Once you have established the connection to Charlie Reed, you can also start the missions outside of the aircraft.

The fearsome Avenger is also getting some upgrades:

  • The Avenger can now be easily purchased
  • The thing now fits in your hangar
  • In the hangar, workshop upgrades can be carried out:
    • Pilot-controlled weapons (MG & missiles)
    • Stealth module with automatic defense
    • Lock-on countermeasures for missiles (Pilot)
    • Extra engine that can be requested

There are also new features for the hangar itself. There are new delivery missions that you can now also start via a website in the game. For a small fee, you can now outsource procurement missions to an AI employee. In addition, there are new offers in the workshop.

By the way, there are 7 new vehicles for your garage. You can admire them here:

No one plays PvP in Diablo 4: Even an NPC has killed 10 times more heroes than all players combined

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 2 minutes

Did you know that you can also play PvP in Diablo 4? Nevertheless, hardly anyone does, as statistics show, which were published by the developers Blizzard.

What are these statistics? On June 11, Blizzard briefly paused time and compiled current numbers from Diablo 4 for some interesting statistics.

Playtime, players defeated in PvE, hardcore players at level 100 – here are the numbers after 10 days of Diablo 4 (including Early Access):

  • Total playtime of all players
    • 276 million hours, more than 30,000 years
  • Enemies defeated
    • 276 billion
  • Heroes killed
    • 316 million
  • Kills by the Butcher
    • 5 million
  • PvP kills
    • 430,000
  • Players on hardcore level 100
    • 163
  • Created multiplayer parties
    • 166 million
  • Most popular class
    • Sorceress

Particularly the playtime is impressive. Recently, Blizzard also revealed how quickly Diablo 4 has sold: Within 5 days, it had a revenue of 666 million US dollars (via activisionblizzard.com).

In comparison, a blockbuster from the same company is ready: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 had the largest CoD release in history and achieved around 1 billion dollars in revenue after 10 days.

However, at least one figure in the statistics is somewhat disappointing: So far, only 430,000 players have been defeated in the fields of hatred, the PvP area of Diablo 4. Alone the nasty Butcher has already chopped up 10 times as many players into butcher-friendly pieces.

Why is PvP so unpopular? This can currently only be speculated.

One reason is certainly the somewhat unfair system with the world levels. Currently, one can ride into the PvP area at world level 1 with a high level and unleash one’s power fantasies without restriction. Blizzard is working on it, and a patch is supposed to come soon.

Additionally, Diablo 4 is more of a PvE game that offers much more content in the fight against NPCs. Some players don’t even think about going into PvP or simply haven’t had the chance yet.

Let us know in the comments if you have played it and whether you would recommend PvP in Diablo 4. If you would rather take a look at our tier list, check it out here: Diablo 4 Tier List: Best Classes & Builds for Solo and Groups

New part of The Division takes the step into the unloved future of gaming, but at least it’s Free2Play

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 4 minutes

Actually, I was not really interested in “The Division: Resurgence“, the mobile game of the well-known Tom Clancy series from Ubisoft, until now. But that has changed today. Not only does the game come remarkably close to the original, but it also sounds like the continuation of “The Division 1,” which players have always wished for.

This is how Ubisoft attracts with new content: In summer 2022, “The Division Resurgence” was announced as the mobile game of the Division series. At that time, the game seemed to be just a trimmed-down version of Division adapted for mobile devices.

So for most hardcore Division agents, like our shooter author Maik Schneider, it was not really exciting at first.

However, since yesterday’s Ubisoft Forward, it has become clear: “The Division: Resurgence” is apparently not just a trimmed-down mobile version of the 3rd-person cover shooter, but a promising expansion of the popular The Division in New York City, which could now also convince hardcore fans.

  • Thus, “The Division: Resurgence” will offer a brand-new MMO adventure and a campaign independent of Tom Clancy’s The Division 1 and The Division 2.
  • The game will also include new perspectives on important story elements.
  • Furthermore, players can expect new game modes for both PvP and PvE, new specializations, even new enemy factions and a new social space.
  • As in the original, it will also be rounded off by a quite detailed game world, solid animations, day and night cycles, as well as dynamic weather effects in Unreal Engine 4.

In the latest pre-rendered CGI trailer for “The Division: Resurgence,” you can catch a first glimpse of the familiar environment of the new mobile agents, which started in beta today:

Free gaming experience with open social space

This is new in “The Division: Resurgence”: Basically, “The Division: Resurgence” of course offers the well-known Division experience – just on mobile phones.

The unique core story itself does not change much:

  • In this specially designed The Division experience for mobile devices, you once again embody an agent of the “Strategic Homeland Division” and have the mission to restore order, fight enemy factions, protect civilians, and help them build a better future.

Moreover, it offers the familiar 3rd-person shooter feel from Division 1 and 2, RPG character development, the MMO approach, cover mechanics, looting and leveling, as well as a large open world in New York City.

  • You eliminate enemies in various new operations and activities, gaining experience points to level up.
  • There is also a dedicated first-person perspective at the push of a button, even with sights.

Ubisoft promises a “brand new MMO adventure”

Even if a lot is supposed to be new in “The Division: Resurgence,” it is not necessary to know the events from parts 1 and 2 to get into the game. However, experienced Division agents should be able to recognize connections and thus gain new perspectives on old story elements from Division.

Another change will be the shared and open MMO world.

There will no longer be an instanced game world as is currently the case with the Division games, but an “open social space.”

  • This means you will encounter significantly more other gamers in “The Division: Resurgence.”
  • Whether you want to play alone or in co-op mode is still up to you.

Also, besides the PvEvP classified Dark Zone, there is still the solo PvP mode “Conflict: Domination.”

  • In this mode, only player duels take place and you now have to compete mobile in two four-player teams to hold control points.
Play in a team or alone – the open social place lets you choose

Ubisoft has also made some technical changes: With Resurgence, you can challenge your smartphone graphically, as the title does not rely on the previously used Snowdrop engine, but uses Unreal Engine 4.

Unfortunately, there is still no detailed information about the new enemy factions or new specializations, such as the field medic.

But even with this information alone, “The Division: Resurgence” already sounds like the Division, or like a continuation that Ubisoft should have released years ago as a successor to Division 1 – just not as a mobile version.

Beta starts today – However, not in Germany

“The Division: Resurgence” officially started its first two-phase beta on June 13 at 12 PM. However, not yet in Germany, but in Australia, Chile, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and Sweden.

Interested players from Germany will therefore have to wait a bit longer before they can discover the game themselves. However, pre-registrations are already possible now.

“The Division: Resurgence” is supposed to recruit new and old agents for the mobile version

What are the requirements? As a free-to-play title, Resurgence will be available for all iOS and Android devices. You can also use a Bluetooth controller to play. However, your device should have at least 8 GB of free storage space.

When is the release of Division: Resurgence? There is not yet a specific date. However, Ubisoft is now aiming for the official release in autumn 2023. When exactly, you will find out as always on MeinMMO.

This is how Resurgence is financed: The financing is done via in-game purchase options, such as microtransactions, as well as a shop where you can spend real money.

What do you think about the decision that The Division: Resurgence is exclusively coming to mobile? And do you believe that “The Division: Resurgence” has the potential to enrich the mobile gaming genre and set new standards? Then feel free to write it in the comments.

Or do you prefer the PC version, for example, of Division 2, which has just started in year 5?

BioWare releases figure of deceased game character as ‘conversation starter’ – soon removed from the store

Jasmin Beverungen Jasmin Beverungen Reading time 2 minutes

The trilogy of Mass Effect has many iconic scenes that BioWare wanted to release as statues in their own store. The first figure in the series caused quite a stir and was quickly removed because the team wanted to think about a better overall concept.

According to BioWare, the figure was supposed to serve as a “conversation starter” and was offered at a price of 135 US dollars. A total of 2,000 copies of the statue were produced, which made pre-order customers happy to have snagged one of the limited editions. However, BioWare has now canceled all pre-orders and halted the presale.

Attention, Spoiler: The following two paragraphs contain a story spoiler for the beginning of Mass Effect 2. If you haven’t played the title yet and want to experience it unspoiled, it’s best to read on after the video that appears.

What does the figure represent? The approximately 15 cm tall statue is the corpse of the female variant of Commander Shepard, frozen and lifeless, drifting in space. At the beginning of Mass Effect 2, we see the dead body floating among the debris of the Normandy after Commander Shepard was previously thrown into space.

This is one of the most iconic game openings in video game history. It would indeed be a conversation starter, albeit a macabre one. Precisely for this reason, BioWare probably wanted to capture the tragedy in a figure.

The Legendary Edition combines all three parts of Mass Effect:

Statue of Mass Effect causes criticism among fans

How are the players reacting? The statue caused many fans to shake their heads due to its motif. The players call the statue “questionable”, and some even find the motif “terrible”. For this reason, BioWare felt compelled to remove the figure from sale and cancel the pre-orders:

The statue was supposed to be part of a series in which iconic moments from Mass Effect are depicted as figures. Since BioWare did not provide enough information during the announcement, the sale is now paused.

Now, pre-order customers are speaking out, disappointed by the halt in sales. Here are some voices from users who would have kept the figure on sale:

  • Rvhochi: “It was questionable, but no one was forced to buy it…”
  • T00metal: “Please bring it back for presale, that was hilarious.”
  • Milabanilla: “[…] Everyone who was offended needs to calm down. You don’t have to like the merch. Just move on and don’t buy it. Don’t ruin it for other people who thought it was pretty cool. […]”

In contrast, there are users who advocate for a halt in sales:

  • Kitsune_Reinara: “Thank you, that was tasteless. If you want to commemorate, a replica of the memorial we set up near the Normandy SR would be the best thing to do.”
  • stufflikehearts: “It is really a terrible figure. There are other popular figures you could use for something like this.”
  • JHCL56: “Thank you, that was like a slap in the face for those of us who love FemShep. I appreciate that you acknowledged our discomfort and concerns.”

It remains to be seen how BioWare will handle the planned statues in the future and whether the mentioned figure will return to the lineup. Not only did the statue cause heads to shake, even some scenes from Mass Effect elicited plenty of cringeworthy moments: Former story writer from BioWare has to “cringe” at the thought of a series about Mass Effect

5 famous players from FIFA 23 who will no longer be in EA Sports FC

Julian Schröder Julian Schröder Reading time 4 minutes

Eventually, every successful footballer career must come to an end, whether voluntarily or due to injuries. Here we show you 7 football stars from FIFA 23 who will not be on the field next season and thus will not appear in the FIFA successor EA Sports FC.

There are football players who seemingly never want to stop playing professionally. The legendary Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon (45) is currently still playing in the 2nd Italian league and just narrowly missed out on promotion with his youth club, FC Parma.

And the eternal Japanese King Kazu is still playing in the 2nd division of Portugal at the amazing age of 56 and is indeed represented in FIFA 23.

However, many football stars choose to retire much earlier. Here we show you 5 famous players who will be missing in the FIFA successor EA Sports FC.

More information about EA Sports FC can be found here:

FIFA 24 is called EA Sports FC – Everything we know about the release, leagues, logo, and content

Gareth Bale

The Welshman, who has spent his recent years preferring to play golf instead of football for Real Madrid, has probably won everything there is to win in his impressive club career. He is a seven-time footballer of the year in Wales, footballer of the year in England, has 3 Spanish league titles, and an incredible 5 Champions League titles.

Now Gareth Bale has ended his career at the age of 33 and on this occasion EA has given him a very strong End-of-Era card.

Mesut Özil

The 2014 World Champion had a brilliant career that ended slightly less well. Özil particularly shined during his time at Real Madrid, where he set up as many goals for Cristiano Ronaldo in 3 years as no other player.

Subsequently, he moved to Arsenal FC, and there too he had an outstanding start and was able to win the English Cup 4 times and score numerous goals himself.

However, now, after his career somewhat faded in Turkey, Özil is ending his career at the age of 34 and will not receive another card in EA Sports FC for now. His last card is a 93 End-of-Era card with very strong attributes.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic

In tears, Zlatan Ibrahimovic (41) announced the end of his long career during the last game of AC Milan. He can look back on an impressive career that started in Malmö and took him across half of Europe as well as to the MLS. He has scored a total of 496 goals in 827 games and assisted another 206 goals.

Fans are hoping for a fierce Ibrahimovic card to commemorate his farewell, which currently does not exist:

Ibrahimović bids farewell in tears and fans demand a card that no one can afford

Gerard Piqué

The legendary defender from FC Barcelona and the Spanish national team can look back on a long and exceedingly successful career that took place almost exclusively at the club level with Barcelona. Piqué became a world and European champion, was crowned Spanish champion eight times, Spanish cup winner seven times, and won the Champions League three times.

However, Piqué has been in retirement since November 2022. Nevertheless, he still had cards in FIFA 23, including a really strong Rulebreakers card, which was very popular for a long time.

Jonas Hector

The former German international spent his entire professional career at 1. FC Köln and remained loyal even during the relegation to the 2. Bundesliga. He helped with the promotion in 2019 and has been continuously playing for the Geißböcke ever since. Now the 33-year-old has hung up his football boots and will probably not be playable in EA Sports FC anymore.

A card for the left-back will probably be in vain in EA Sports FC. However, you can still get his strong End-of-Era card in FUT 23.

In the long run, it is certainly possible that some of these players might return again – as an Icon or Hero card. What do you think? Which card should receive a Hero or Icon card? Feel free to tell us in the comments!

The head of Square Enix shows teachers who thought he was a failure and played too much Final Fantasy

Dariusz Müller Dariusz Müller Reading time 2 minutes

Many of you long-time gamers probably heard from a teacher when you were kids or teenagers that you play too many video games – and you are not alone in this. Takashi Kiryu, the new CEO of the Japanese publisher Square Enix, has had a similar experience and is now addressing his former teachers.

Who is it about?

  • Takashi Kiryu is the CEO of the Japanese publisher Square Enix, known among other things as the publisher of Final Fantasy.
  • Takashi Kiryu recently succeeded Yosuke Matsuda, who announced in March 2023 that he would step down as CEO of Square Enix.
  • Takashi Kiryu has only been with Square Enix since 2020 and has changed his position several times since then.
  • According to his own statements, Kiryu is a fan of Final Fantasy, which he emphasized again at a “Final Fantasy XVI” event in June.

In what context did the “Square Enix” CEO talk about his teachers? Square Enix held an event on June 12 as part of the Summer Game Fest centered around the upcoming role-playing game Final Fantasy XVI. At the beginning of the live show, fans saw a new trailer for the game, then “Square Enix” CEO Takashi Kiryu took the stage.

After the 47-year-old Japanese welcomed the audience to the show, Kiryu spoke as part of his welcoming speech about his personal relationship with the “Final Fantasy” series and how he came to his first game in the franchise:

I don’t know how you felt when you saw the trailer, but I felt like a kid again. …like a little boy, in the winter of 1987, who loved RPGs, who loved Dragon Quest, which came out the year before and was amazing. I had to get my hands on the big novelty, and as a reward for helping my parents with orange picking, and after begging them for an early Christmas gift, my father bought me the very first Final Fantasy.

Takashi Kiryu, CEO of Square Enix via YouTube (Timestamp: 00:15:25)

We embed the trailer that ran before Kiryu’s speech at the event here:

Start video
Final Fantasy XVI Ascension Trailer

Playing games became an important part of Kiryu’s life: “Whenever a new title came out, I had to make time to play – forget about homework, forget about eating, forget about sleeping! I would sleep in class anyway. While my friends focused on sports or other activities, I focused on gaming.”

Shortly thereafter, the businessman recounted a few former teachers who criticized his preference for video games and doubted his potential success.

What did he show to his teachers? Kiryu showed it to his former teachers by standing on stage as the CEO of Square Enix – and he told them exactly that.

The 47-year-old recounted that several teachers told him as a child that he would not succeed in life if he played so many video games. Now they would be surprised to see him as CEO on the stage of the game he used to love:

More than a few teachers told me that you won’t succeed in life if you play all the time. But they [will] be very surprised to see me standing on this stage with you!

The release of the new Final Fantasy XVI is just around the corner, as PS5 players can dive into the fray on June 22. The story trailer of the latest installment promises a mega RPG:

16-year-old types almost as fast as an AI – breaks a world record

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 4 minutes

A 16-year-old teenager set a new record in fast typing this week, even surpassing the speed of an Artificial Intelligence (AI).

What record was broken here? Most people type at a speed of 35 to 45 words per minute. The average speed of professional typists, by comparison, is 65 to 70 words per minute (WPM).

Those who can type 150 words per minute already belong to the top 1% of the fastest typists in the world.

However, this is still far from the current record of a YouTuber using an online tool. Because a 16-year-old managed to type a staggering 300 words per minute, thanks in part to his keyboard.

This is the new record: The Florida-based YouTuber MythicalRocket scratched the magic threshold of an impressive 300 words typed per minute for the first time this week. Additionally, he achieved a typing accuracy of 99.47%.

His video showcasing the new typing record is a remarkable combination of speed, accuracy, endurance, and a mechanical keyboard.

Moreover, it sounds like the ultimate ASMR for any keyboard fan. His personal joy about the record is unmistakable at the end.

To achieve such extraordinary typing speed, skill is certainly necessary, but the choice of the right hardware is also crucial.

And in this hobby, every fast typist swears by their own favorite.

  • Mechanical keyboards have proven to be the preferred choice for fast typists and gamers, as they offer improved tactile feedback, durability, and responsiveness.

On Twitter, MythicalRocket also specifically thanks his “SteelSeries Apex Pro” keyboard after the record, without which he probably wouldn’t have achieved this feat.

The keyboard is also among the preferred models in gaming:

  • The “SteelSeries Apex Pro” keyboard allows for manual configuration of the actuation point for each key.
  • Additionally, the built-in OmniPoint switches have a low response time, which also provides more speed while typing.

So this is what you “play” after Fortnite

How he came to the unusual hobby: MythicalRocket, who only started the hobby of “fast typing” three years ago, seems to have not only a good keyboard but also exceptional finger dexterity. He combines this with a perfect command of keyboard mechanics.

When asked by Kotaku how he got into this unusual hobby, he replied:

One of my friends pointed me to a website called “Monkeytype”, and I was simply fascinated by achieving higher scores.

the new record holder responds upon inquiry from Kotaku

At that time, he was only 13 years old. But his first typing attempts were already around 130-140 WPM in the 60-second category on “Monkeytype”. He believes he achieved this ability and speed through gaming and old Skype/Discord text chats.

However, he is absolutely normal for his age group. Many young people now learn to type extremely fast at an earlier stage, often during their school years and even before their first job (according to ratatype.de).

About a year ago, however, MythicalRocket realized that he might be the first to actually achieve the record and thus the 300 WPM.

“Monkeytype” tests your typing skills
What is Monkeytype actually?

Monkeytype is not a game in the proper sense but a minimalist and customizable typing test that promises a challenging experience. Monkeytype offers many test modes and an account system to save your typing speed and a leaderboard.

You can test yourself in various modes there and find out how fast you can type and improve your progress and speed. Additionally, you receive real-time feedback on typos and accuracy.

If you want to try the tool yourself, you can do so directly in the browser at the following address: www.monkeytype.com.

Is there anyone else who can keep up? Yes, and although the 300 WPM barrier had long been considered insurmountable in fast typing on the keyboard.

The current second-highest record in fast typing on a keyboard in Time 15 on “Monkeytype” belongs to the user Izanagi. He currently sits at 279.01 WPM.

So it is not impossible that the new record held by MythicalRocket will soon be broken. Especially since only a few words separate first and second place.

The “Monkeytype” leaderboard from June 12, 2023 shows who is on his heels

These are the reactions to the record

Some openly admit that they would probably break all their fingers if they tried to type 300 words per minute and that they couldn’t even read what MythicalRocket typed as fast as he typed it.

Nonetheless, the fast typist is also respected. Among them is Jake Lucky, an American news reporter and YouTuber, known primarily for his reports and interviews with eSports players and other YouTubers.

Apart from the astonished, there are also funny comments about the record:

  • The Twitter user Duthie comments, for example: “[MythicalRocket] has a bright future as Eminem’s stenographer”
  • Branzed is convinced that MythicalRocket is actually an AI: “So he writes our ChatGPT responses.”
  • XLEK believes MythicalRocket could be even faster, saying: “Imagine if he also drank coffee.”

What do you think of the achievement of the 16-year-old fast typist who can type almost as fast as an AI?

The new patch in WoW shows the most powerful sorceress of Azeroth as a child, transforming people into sheep for fun.

Jakob Gerden Jakob Gerden Reading time 2 minutes

It is well known that World of Warcraft can always surprise us with some great experiences. Now, Blizzard has integrated a Daily Quest in the latest patch 10.1.5 that allows you to experience the probably most powerful mortal sorceress in Azeroth anew, specifically in her past.

What kind of quest is this? The mentioned quest deals with the childhood of Jaina Proudmoore, the probably most powerful mortal sorceress of Azeroth. Besides this quest, there has also been the opportunity to replay Jaina Proudmoore’s story in Hearthstone.

As the timekeepers Chromie and Soridormi inform you, someone came up with the glorious idea of handing Jaina Proudmoore a magic wand during her childhood. The danger of this becomes apparent at the start of this quest. Jaina had the idea to transform foxes into sheep.

This naturally had consequences. You will see how Jaina is soon surrounded by guards. You will also learn something about the relationship between Jaina and her father, as well as the responsibility that comes with magic. Initially, the following dialogue will reveal itself to you:

  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Sheep cannot be chatterers!
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Magic is fun!
  • Boralus Guard says: Take the wand–
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Stay sheep!
  • Boralus Guard says: Someone get the Admiral–!
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Sheep!
  • Boralus Guard says: Who gave her magic!?
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Ha ha ha! Back to sheep!

After you manage to take the magic wand from Jaina, her father, Daelin Proudmoore, comes to reprimand his daughter:

  • Daelin Proudmoore yells: That’s enough!
  • Daelin Proudmoore says: Who gave you the wand? What is going on here?
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: I was just having a little fun–
  • Daelin Proudmoore says: Jaina, you could have hurt someone. Magic is dangerous.
  • Jaina Proudmoore says: Yes, father …

A new MMORPG was considered a great hope for 2023, but the latest trailer is receiving strong criticism

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

Throne and Liberty received its first gameplay trailer in 2022 after years. It made a very positive impression there. But after the first beta tests, it looks quite different. Now a trailer for the Summer Game Fest has been released, which is currently receiving strong criticism in the comments on the Xbox channel.

What does the trailer show? In just under 90 seconds, various areas, gameplay content, and combat scenes are shown, with the trailer constantly switching between cinematics and actual gameplay.

The trailer was published, among other places, on the Xbox channel on YouTube, where there were mixed reactions. Some found that Throne and Liberty looks action-packed and beautiful. But that’s exactly a problem, others say. They believe the trailer glosses over the current situation.

You can watch the trailer here:

Throne and Liberty – Summer Game Fest Trailer

Criticism of combat system and graphics

What is being criticized? The trailers for Throne and Liberty stage large PvP battles and repeatedly show situations with the cinematic elements where enemies are thrown back by powerful attacks. But you don’t see that in the game itself.

In the game, it feels like a very rigid tab-targeting, with long animations and very little hit feedback. Often you can simply walk out of attacks or get stunned and just have to wait it out. No comparison to the dynamics of games like Guild Wars 2 or Black Desert Online.

Much of it graphically and gameplay-wise resembles a Lineage 3, which could have easily appeared in the late 2000s during the times of LOTRO and Warhammer Online.

A good comparison video to the trailer above is the GvG gameplay from the YouTuber Logen. Noteworthy here is the scene at minute 2:32, where the YouTuber is stunned, but the opponent is just one millimeter too far away, and the entire combo goes nowhere.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3Ecrx-lVcE

Additionally, it is criticized that it is a tab-target game with only 6 abilities and 9 different weapons. That’s overall far too little. The predecessor Lineage 2 relied on over 30 specializations, each with dozens of skills.

Other tab-target games like WoW or FFXIV offer significantly greater variety.

You should soon be able to form your own opinion about the game. A technical test was announced during the Summer Game Fest, for which you can now register (via Throne and Liberty).

“Auto-Run, Auto-Combat, Auto-Loot – Welcome to the Bot World”

What are typical comments under the trailer? There is a flood of criticism under the trailer. The user Marcus Lacey writes, “It is the best AFK game that will be released for consoles.” He refers to mechanics like auto-run and auto-combat. Automatic fighting continues even 8 hours after logout due to a premium item.

Additionally, it is mentioned under the video:

  • “It is a shame that you have to stand still in one place to fight.”
  • “Dead on arrival. It is a typical Korean MMORPG with autoplay-run and auto-combat.”
  • “It is part of the Lineage series, so it will not be successful in the West, but huge in East Asia.”

These comments are devastating, especially considering that NCSoft promised a large game for PC and consoles with Throne and Liberty, which was also supposed to be successful in the West.

Are there also positive voices? Yes, the transformations into animals are praised. In the trailer, you can see two scenes: At second 48, the character transforms into an eagle while falling, and at minute 1:24, the character first uses a grappling hook, then also transforms in mid-air.

Throne and Liberty was supposed to be released in the first half of 2023, but it has been postponed to October. More about this here: The new MMORPG Throne and Liberty officially postpones the release but has good news as well.

Twitch: 35-Year-Old Says He Is Now a Better Person – Calls Streamer ‘MontanaBlack When Young’

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

The German Twitch streamer MontanaBlack (35) looks back on his career and admits to having made mistakes in the past that he is ashamed of. But he has evolved. He now sees in the streamer Shurjoka the behavior that caused him so many problems before.

This is the situation:

  • The Twitch streamer Shurjoka was awarded the German Video Game Award as Gamer of the Year in 2023. The streamer describes herself as politically left radical. For example, she advocated for a boycott against Hogwarts Legacy.
  • The Twitch streamers Kuchen.tv and MontanaBlack criticized this award. In Shurjoka’s eyes, it is part of a campaign against her. She accuses Kuchen.tv of constantly criticizing and defaming her to generate reach and fill his channel. She even sued him for calling her “left extremist”, i.e., anti-constitutional.
  • MontanaBlack repeatedly reacts to the dispute between the two streamers. He firmly stands by “his brother”, Kuchen.tv. The 35-year-old emphasizes his dislike for Shurjoka.

I have done things that I am ashamed of

This is what MontanaBlack says about his own career: In a new Twitch stream, MontanaBlack once again confronts Shurjoka, who is embroiled in an ongoing dispute with Kuchen.Tv. Kuchen.tv itself is a controversial person. But for MontanaBlack, that is not a problem.

MontanaBlack says:

Kuchen.tv has certainly done things in the past that I do not celebrate and from which I also distance myself. You can criticize me for that and say: Hey Monte, you are looking at someone who probably hit his wife – or not. Whatever, there were definitely some things in the past with Kuchen.tv that can be criticized or questioned, but – now comes the big but:

As MontanaBlack, I have done things in the past that were also not okay. For which I have been condemned and for which I have received a shitstorm. Nevertheless, we are sitting here together, and people are watching me. […]

I have made mistakes in the past that I am ashamed of, for which I have apologized, from which I have learned, from which I have matured, that have made me a better person, and that same chance, that same treatment that I received, Kuchen.tv also gets from me.”

MontanaBlack no longer comments on negative things against him

How does MontanaBlack recognize that he is now a better person? The core lesson he has drawn from past problems is apparently: If you are in a hole, stop digging.

He says he no longer reacts to “negative things” against him.

Regarding the German streamer Shurjoka, who often attacks Kuchen.tv, he sees exactly the behavior that got him into trouble in the past:

She only makes it worse. At the points where I was in my career before: As soon as I commented on negative things and got myself into deeper shit – which I fortunately no longer do – she is the young Monte with breasts. Cool.

The segment starts around 2:31 minutes:

What does he mean by that? An example of getting “yourself into trouble” can be a case from January 2022: MontanaBlack promoted and raffled NFT monkeys with swastikas. Apparently, the streamer had entered into sponsorship but had not carefully checked what he was actually promoting.

This was apparently an oversight that resulted from pure carelessness. The NFT creator subsequently removed the monkeys.

But MontanaBlack remained stubborn: Instead of admitting the mistake, he downplayed the swastikas in an initial response, saying they were part of German history. He would not have removed the monkeys. The statement just fueled the shitstorm further.

Shortly after, he apologized for “confusing statements” he had made at first. That was probably one of the examples from which he learned: If you are in a hole, stop digging.

Steam: €20 simulation has 96% positive reviews – so realistic that a real company is now looking for drivers there

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

Driving and flying simulations are a genre of their own. To outsiders, it seems crazy that some spend their day virtually traveling from A to B without getting up from the PC. “American Truck Simulator” (Steam) does its job so well that it has received 96% positive reviews on Steam and is now a large freight company recruiting drivers there.

What kind of game is American Truck Simulator?

  • American Truck Simulator was released on February 2, 2016, and is a spin-off of “Euro Truck Simulator 2″. The game costs €20 on Steam, with a bundle of 9 DLCs going up to €81.
  • Essentially, the player drives a tractor-trailer and must deliver goods. To do this, they establish a company, choose a hometown, and receive their own truck garage that serves as their home base.
  • At the beginning, the player drives borrowed trucks until they earn enough money to build their own fleet. Over time, the player unlocks additional skills, can even hire NPC drivers, and further upgrade the garage.

Here you can see the launch trailer for the simulation:

For players, the simulator is pure relaxation

What do the reviews say? For many fans of American Truck Simulator, the game seems to be especially relaxing. The reviews say:

  • “The game is really fun when you want to clear your head. I play it all the time while listening to music.”
  • “The graphics and details are great. I love driving through areas I know.”
  • “All the roads, trips, and the feeling – without the painfully high fuel prices. Perfect for the budget-conscious tourist.”

MeinMMO editor Patrick Freese is also an enthusiastic driver of virtual trucks. He writes:

Patrick Freese from MeinMMO: In American Truck Simulator, I have accumulated nearly 100 playing hours. However, my favorite in this area remains Euro Truck Simulator 2, where I reach about 900 playing hours. For me, these simulators are ideal for unwinding after a long day. Meanwhile, I listen to a relaxed podcast, which I don’t have to concentrate too much on, and then drive my tours across Europe with a steering wheel.
As a casual game to unwind, I can recommend these truck simulators.

Game aims to help address the shortage of professionals in truck driving

This is the latest development: The game is so popular that now a large freight company, Schneider National, has started to advertise for new employees with huge billboards in the game. Previously, the developers used the billboards to show new updates. Now a real trucking company advertises there for employees.

There are indications that they are testing the advertising billboards in the “relatively small” American Truck Simulator before venturing into the even larger “Euro Truck Simulator” 2.

“Kickstart your career” – the freight company is advertising to players.

The developers say that when approached by the company, they were excited and chose to collaborate:

“[…] It’s an opportunity to help the trucking industry, which is currently suffering from a shortage of professionals.”

Players seem to have no issue with real advertisements appearing on the huge billboards in their game. They even find it “good and realistic,” as a user points out on Twitter.

We have already showcased a simulation on Steam on MeinMMO that has a massive impact on the industry it simulates:
