Steam has introduced a change in the shop. From now on, the lowest prices of the last 30 days will be displayed. This should make shopping on Steam easier for you, without the need to use additional addons.
Who doesn’t know this: Developers put their games on sale on Steam and claim that they will raise the price significantly very soon or advertise the lowest offer of all time. Valve had already restricted this by stating that developers can no longer reduce their games inflationarily and offer fake discounts (via techspot.com).
Now there is another change that is not entirely voluntary. To comply with European law, Steam now shows you the price developments of games over the last 30 days. You can see exactly whether developers have increased prices quietly and secretly, or whether the game has been cheaper at some point before. Valve announces this on Twitter:

Retailers in Germany are already doing this by indicating “price of the last 30 days” behind offers. This is part of the so-called Omnibus Directive of the EU: In discount promotions, the lowest price that was used within the last 30 days before the offer must be indicated.

Happy Birthday Steam Deck
Many gamers have been using addons for price checking
What alternatives are there? Many gamers who use Steam likely also use various addons to monitor prices. The most well-known is probably SteamDB, which not only allows you to view the lowest prices, but also offers other interesting data about the games. By the way, SteamDB also uses this to take jabs at Valve: We have been able to do this for a long time and in much more detail:

This price indication is probably not entirely voluntary, as so far only customers from the European Union benefit from this representation. Whether this feature will be available to players in the USA or other parts of the world is therefore questionable.
Nevertheless, this change should be helpful for many users, as they can see the price developments directly within the Steam client and no longer need to use external programs or addons. During the next Summer Sale, which will surely come, this will save some people time.
If you want to know when the next sale on Steam starts, then check out the following article on MeinMMO. Here we present all the important times related to the sales in 2023:
According to an insider report, EA and Bioware want to sell their MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic. A studio that previously worked under EA and now manages games like Ultima Online and Dark Age of Camelot is said to be interested.
What does the report say? Bioware wants to focus on single-player games like Dragon Age and Mass Effect 4 in the future. An MMORPG that constantly needs to be updated with new content apparently stands in the way.
According to IGN, a contract is reportedly being worked on behind the scenes between EA and Broadsword Online Games. This would transfer SWTOR into the hands of the new developer. Of the approximately 70 to 80 employees currently managing the MMORPG, about half are also expected to be transferred.
Is this bad news? Not necessarily. Broadsword Online Games is the company of Rob Denton, who previously developed MMORPGs for EA with Mythic Entertainment and worked as Chief Operating Officer at Bioware on SWTOR from 2006 to 2013.
The company currently manages the two MMORPGs Ultima Online and Dark Age of Camelot. So, there is experience for the further development of The Old Republic.
SWTOR is still popular 12 years after release, but currently, the momentum is gone
How is SWTOR generally doing? The MMORPG received its last new expansion in 2022. Legacy of the Sith was rather disappointing. While the revisions of classes, Shared Targeting, and the story were small highlights, overall the scope was much too limited.
The story, for instance, offered only about 3 hours of gameplay.

Although further updates have followed in the last 15 months, including a raid and the introduction of the 64-bit client, there is a general feeling that Bioware and SWTOR have lost their momentum.
A new company could thus bring fresh air into the dusty MMORPG.
What does EA say about it? They stated that the MMORPG is still a great success even after 12 years, but they are looking for ways to allow the game to grow further. This also includes discussions with Broadsword.
Almost 12 years after its release, Star Wars: The Old Republic is still a success and allows its engaged and passionate community to continue to grow. We are very proud of the work that the team has done, and the future of the game and the community still looks very promising. We are considering how we can provide the best opportunities for the game and the team to grow and evolve. This also includes discussions with Broadsword, a studio that specializes in creating online experiences supported by the community. Our goal is to do the best for the game and its players.
Therefore, a sale to a new studio that is already managing two classic MMORPG gems today and regularly providing updates does not necessarily have to be bad news.
What do you think about a possible sale of SWTOR?
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
In Diablo 4, you need both gold and crafting materials in the endgame. For this, you must either have items deconstructed by the blacksmith or sold at the vendor. MeinMMO explains when you should visit which NPC in the game.
The most important points at a glance:
You should deconstruct items during the campaign.
What you find in the endgame goes to the vendor.
Legendaries follow different rules.
Why should I deconstruct items in the campaign? While you are not yet in the endgame, you should always bring items to the blacksmith for deconstruction. Normal, magical, and rare items provide the same materials at all levels.
Since you will later need a lot of resources for crafting and re-rolling, you should save these materials. As a guideline, you can bring everything to the blacksmith until level 40 or 50. The longer you can manage without more gold, the better.
That’s why selling later is worth it: Items you get from higher world tiers and from endgame content are worth more gold than earlier ones. For selling a complete inventory on Torment, you can receive around one million gold.
Accordingly, it is worth selling as late as possible. You should also be frugal at the beginning:
Re-rolling properties is expensive. Only do that when you are sure you will keep an item for a long time.
Crafting will consume more resources later. As soon as you have to spend legendary materials, you should wait until you are confident with your build.
Respecialization costs little gold at first and becomes more expensive over time. If you want to be frugal, it’s better to try things out earlier than later. You can find our tier list with the best builds here.
When should I keep items? At certain points, you will want to keep items for a longer time. You can roughly discern based on the item level whether you will keep an item for a longer time:
Up to and including world tier 3, you should keep items starting from around level 620. They won’t make a significant jump in quality from there. Until then, it’s best to equip upgrades suggested by the game.
From world tier 4 onwards, you should aim for items with a level of at least 700. Here it is also worth paying attention to the right stats.
Legendaries: Bring to the Blacksmith, Vendor, or Occultist?
Legendary items follow different rules. You should never bring them to the vendor, but always either deconstruct them or have the occultist extract them. Because in Diablo 4, you can easily transfer legendary aspects to other items.
However, you also desperately need the materials you can only get by deconstructing legendaries. Otherwise, you cannot transfer aspects. Therefore, you should keep some key points in mind:
Legendaries that you find below about level 35 rarely grant “legendary” materials or none at all. You can always extract these aspects.
Items with powers from the codex can generally be brought to the blacksmith for deconstruction. You can look up where you get a codex power in the collection.
Keep in mind that you can only apply extracted aspects once. You can apply as many aspects as you want to an item, overwriting the old one each time. You can also write aspects on other legendary items.
An exception are unique items (“Uniques”). You cannot enchant these; you can only sell them directly or bring them to the blacksmith. However, be absolutely sure that you do not need them beforehand, as uniques are very rare:
Geoff Keighley is known as the host of numerous gaming shows. In 2020, he founded his own event, which will showcase a variety of trailers this year, while the E3 has been canceled again.
Who is Geoff Keighley?
Geoff Keighley is a Canadian video game journalist, particularly known as the host of numerous gaming events.
Keighley regularly hosts major shows where many trailers are shown, including the annual Game Awards and the Opening Night Live of gamescom.
In 2020, Keighley launched his own gaming event called the “Summer Game Fest.”
What gaming event is it about? The Summer Game Fest (SGF) founded by Keighley in 2020 gives video game publishers and developers the opportunity to present their new games in detail with trailers or even announce them for the first time.
The event takes place digitally and is specifically aimed at companies that do not hold their own events like the PlayStation Showcase, Ubisoft Forward, or the Xbox & Bethesda Showcase.
During the show hosted by Keighley himself, gaming fans experience a true barrage of trailers, just like at SGF 2022. Cinematics and gameplay footage are shown every minute – there is not much talking between the individual games.
The Summer Game Fest 2023 will take place on June 8, 2023, starting at 9:00 PM. MeinMMO will accompany the event with a live ticker.

Summer Game Fest showcases great games from the live event in the trailer – everything from Gotham Knights to LoL is included
In the podcast, Keighley was addressed about being considered the “E3 Killer,” to which he responded:
I think the E3 has somewhat killed itself. I understand why people say that [the SGF killed the E3], but I think if anything, we have launched the Summer Game Fest, and I built the Summer Game Fest because I saw that the E3 was falling behind.
Keighley also adds that he did not see himself in competition with the E3, as the Summer Game Fest is a purely digital show that is live streamed. He wanted to create a way to bring gaming news to the fans in 2020 when the E3 was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For 2023, Keighley assumed that the SGF and E3 would go their separate ways and not be in competition with each other. His event would take place digitally and show trailers, while the E3 would do its part at the convention center in Los Angeles.
As the cause for the death of the E3, Keighley suspects in the podcast that the E3 has had a relevance and participation problem in recent years and asked the question of what would have happened if they had not founded the SGF.
Shortly after the cancellation of the E3 2023, Keighley spoke about the death of the gaming event. He noted that he had suspected since 2019 that the E3 had no future.

A new weapon, the tactical MP, awaits you.
Quality of Life: This refers to minor changes that are meant to make your gaming experience easier or more enjoyable.
You can retrieve all damaged vehicles at once by calling Mors Mutual Insurance
An alternative setting for sprinting is added: hold to sprint
You can label garages with descriptions so you can find your vehicles more easily in the overview
The Willard Eudora and the Classique Broadway can be used as taxis when you use the taxi design
Improvements for the creator who receives additional elements and weather options like snow
In the GTA Online community, the minor changes are being well received. On Reddit, players are really looking forward to it:
“Request all destroyed vehicles from Mors Mutual! Rockstar finally listened. Thank the lord!”, cheers HYoung119
Regarding the alternative sprint option, exjr_ writes: “Finally! No more pressing, pressing, pressing, pressing, pressing to run. Hopefully, players use the option so I don’t have to hear their typing over their microphones in the PS5 controller”
Others love the customizable descriptions for garages. This way they can clearly define where their sports cars and where their fun cars are parked
But that’s not all. In the coming weeks, Rockstar Games will provide more information about the summer update. This includes details about new gameplay, vehicles, activities, special weekly events, and celebrations.
“The Super Mario Bros. Movie” starring Jack Black as the villain Bowser has seen massive box office profits compared to other animated films. Only one Disney movie achieved even more.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie premiered on April 5, 2023, on the big screen and took off in theaters. Although there were discussions beforehand about main actor Chris Pratt, many viewers celebrated the video game adaptation of the Nintendo classic.
Especially Jack Black as the villain Bowser thrilled many, and his song Peaches became a hit on the internet.
In terms of box office revenue, The Super Mario Bros. Movie was able to surpass other animated films. However, there is one princess who could achieve even higher box office numbers than the plumber.
Here you can see a trailer for the “Super Mario” movie featuring Jack Black as Bowser:

Through the analysis site “The Numbers”, you can view the so-called box office numbers and thus the earnings of films in theaters.
In the category of animated films, the new Super Mario movie secured 2nd place with worldwide sales of around $1.3 billion.
Only one Disney film can top this. With a box office gross of over $1.45 billion, Frozen 2 from 2019 is at the top of the cinema profits in the animated sector.
Behind the Super Mario movie, Disney productions Frozen (2013) and Incredibles 2 from 2018 follow in 3rd and 4th places (as of June 6, 2023).
In the overall ranking from The Numbers comparing all movies, the Mario movie performs quite well.
Bowser makes it to 20th place there, having overtaken several Marvel films such as Iron Man 3, Captain America: Civil War, or Spider-Man: Far From Home in terms of box office earnings.
However, a popular Marvel hero is also rising to the top of the box office and has dethroned a DC title as the best superhero movie:
What world tier should you start in Diablo 4 and why? How can you change the world tier? MeinMMO provides answers.
World tier 1 or 2? Start with world tier 1 if you want to get through the campaign quickly and efficiently.

Diablo 4: That’s why you shouldn’t play on World Tier 2
Which world tier suits me? It may make sense to play on world tier 2. But it’s not worthwhile unless you want a greater challenge right from the start.
The campaign of Diablo 4 features long quests with cinematics and many excursions throughout Sanctuary. However, the bonuses of world tier 2 do not make up for this:
Monsters give 20% more experience
Monsters drop 15% more gold
You will progress more slowly through the campaign due to stronger monsters, which means it will take you longer to reach world tier 3. This is where the real grind begins:
However, if you’re just casually traveling through the open world and not stressing out, then you can also go for world tier 2 if you want the enemies to put up a bit of a fight. Some events and bosses can be quite tough, but definitely doable.
If you want to quickly get through the campaign and into the endgame, then world tier 1 is your choice. Once you’ve completed the campaign, you don’t need to repeat the story with another character.
How can I change the world tier? For that, you will find a statue in the first major city, Kyovashad, in the northeast that resembles a kind of fountain. Use it, and you will be able to adjust the world tier:
Location of the world tier statue in Kyovashad
Diablo 4 is the first part of the series with an open world. It’s easy to get lost. If you’re looking for your way back or want to collect the valuable Lilith statues, you can find an interactive map here: Diablo 4: Map with all locations – Dungeons, Lilith statues & Quests
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
The campaign of Diablo 4 is divided into acts. Find out here how many there are, how long the campaign takes approximately, and how you can get through it quickly.
How many acts does Diablo 4 have? There are a total of 6 acts in Diablo 4, with a prologue at the beginning and a short epilogue at the end.
Here are a few tips for getting through quickly. If you need leveling tips, then start our video:

Diablo 4: How to get through the story quickly
How long does the story take? If you focus only on the campaign missions, you can get through in just about 15 hours. If you skip all cutscenes, it can go even faster. After that, you don’t need to play the campaign again with a new character.
What should I do to get through quickly? Here are a few tips if you want to get through the story quickly:
No side missions
Skip all side missions completely and run from one campaign mission to the next. It’s only important that you reach level 30 at the end of the campaign to be able to play the world tier dungeons. You can easily do that.
Play on World Tier 1
You can choose from two difficulty levels at the start and should stick with the easier option. On World Tier 2, you will take longer, and the extra gold and experience points do not make up for that.

Asmongold is considered the biggest MMORPG streamer on Twitch and is also a huge Diablo fan. The release of Diablo 4 was supposed to be a big event, but after a 13-hour stream, suddenly nothing was heard from the 32-year-old. Now he gives the all-clear.
The MMORPG streamer has 2 accounts on Twitch: his main channel Asmongold and his second channel Zackrawrr. As Asmongold, he embodies the persona of a stereotypical gamer, while on the alternative account he is more himself, or so the theory goes.
For the 32-year-old, streaming on the second channel seems to be more relaxed, which is why he has repeatedly taken “streaming breaks” from Asmongold in recent years, but continued to stream as Zackrawrr. The return to the main account seemed to become more threatening for him and even triggered panic attacks.
After only one stream, however, it was already over again; Asmongold has not been on air since. Now he gives his fans an update on what happened.

Asmongold feels pain in his leg after 13 hours of Diablo 4
Why did Asmongold stop streaming? In a post on June 4 in his subreddit, the streamer explained that anxiety and stress related to streaming on his main account were the cause.
However, he can’t really explain it himself: he had streamed for 13 hours, it had been wonderful, then he had gone to bed and three hours later woke up full of unease at the thought of doing it all over again.
The 32-year-old is apparently frustrated by the situation:
If you are one of those people who think this is stupid, embarrassing, or pathetic, you are in good company because I feel the same way. It amazes me that this is even a problem in my life, and I hate myself for allowing it.
Asmongold also says he has already done various things to deal with the anxiety: from medications to conversations with other content creators and friends, but nothing has brought a significant improvement.
This was, according to Asmongold, the real reason for his break: In a video from June 5, the streamer admitted to leaving out some details in his post. Apparently, the 32-year-old had health concerns after his Diablo stream and eventually went to the emergency room.
Asmongold explains: All his friends told him they constantly had pain from sitting too much during streaming and their unhealthy lifestyle. But he had so far been spared. That’s why he has paranoia at the slightest physical pain.

How is Asmongold doing? As the streamer reports, he woke up with pain in his leg after his Diablo stream. This gave him a terrible scare: “You sit for such a long time, then you have pain in your leg, that could be a blood clot.”
However, he did not want to alarm anyone and therefore did not tell either his fans or his father about his fears. However, as the discomfort did not improve, he went to the emergency room on June 5.
In the emergency room, Asmongold was thoroughly checked. As it turned out, the streamer is in perfect health. The examination will probably cost him $420, if his insurance does not cover the costs, the 32-year-old said. But that is well-spent money to gain some certainty and peace of mind.
Asmongold said he has constant panic because of his unhealthy lifestyle that something bad will happen to him because he is approaching 33 and only “two things in life are certain: death and taxes.”
What happens now? Asmongold wants to stream again on his second account for the time being until he feels mentally ready. He also explains that he wants to pay more attention to his health in the future – for example, he will not completely give up sweets, but at least no longer eat them for breakfast.
Currently, he is at 10 out of 10 points regarding “degeneration,” and he wants to bring the value down to 7. Already in the summer of 2022, Asmongold had explained that he wanted to turn his life around after a particularly bad day.
Twitch has apparently had enough of streamers making money from advertising deals without getting a share. There are now new regulations that will make it significantly more difficult for streamers to monetize their channels.
What are these guidelines? The guidelines for sponsored content regulate how streamers can promote products or services in their streams. Today, June 6, 2023, new rules have been issued that will come into effect on July 1.
The new guidelines primarily affect deals that content creators enter into with brands without Twitch’s involvement.
Brand logos displayed in the stream may only occupy 3% of the screen area
Streamers may not embed advertising videos, advertising banners, or audio advertisements directly into their streams
This is allowed:
Brand panels may still be integrated on the channel page
Products may be presented in the background of the stream
Links to other pages are allowed
Products can be discussed and recommended, unboxing streams are also permitted
Sponsored games can be played in the stream
Content creators are angry
What are the initial reactions? Anything but positive. Content creators accuse Twitch of deliberately making it more difficult for them to offer sponsored streams so that they have more incentive to use the platform’s controversial advertising offer (via Twitter).
We have compiled some reactions for you here:
Evan Saverino: “Man, it’s like they want us to stop using the site or something. This is embarrassing” (via Twitter).
LarryFishburger: “This platform keeps getting worse day by day” (via Twitter).
EEEeee!: “The management of this site is astonishingly out of touch, that something like this was approved.”
sackydude: “This means the end for events on Twitch or at least a significant restriction” (via Reddit).
GuthixSucks: “Are they trying to kill their site? We will definitely see more people switching platforms” (via Reddit).
The German streamer Dracon has already stated that he will simply continue using the advertising clips until he is banned for it (via Twitter).
The anger is also high in the American space. The streamer and YouTuber Critikal comments: “It’s really impressive how Twitch manages to make the worst changes imaginable.”

It remains to be seen whether Twitch will reconsider after the initial strong reactions and adjust the guidelines before they come into effect on July 1.
However, the path that the streaming platform has taken has seemed clear since September 2022: They don’t want to simply make bandwidth available to streamers without earning a share.
In Destiny 2, the weekly reset is approaching, and that means it’s time for a new part of the seasonal Season 21 story and the reset of weekly activities. MeinMMO gives you an overview as always.
This is happening this week: With the weekly reset in Destiny 2, Guardians can expect another and especially new piece of story of the seasonal story in week 3.
This week, Guardians will face Kelgorath, and to do this, they will have to dive deep into the quest “In the Depths” to extract further information about the Witness’s past from Sloane.
Some Guardians are also still hoping for an exotic quest that was leaked beforehand. It is said to bring the last undiscovered Exo weapon of Season 21, supposedly a scout rifle, into the game. However, rumors say that Bungie plans to reveal this only in week 10. If not, the leak was just smoke and mirrors.
If you are not familiar with Season 21 yet, check out the current trailer here:

The “Xenophage” can be obtained through a quest that also leads to a dungeon.
Weekly Activities
With the weekly reset, several activities and challenges have been updated again, offering players a variety of rewards and progress, and through repetition, making better Guardians out of them.
In the new Season 21, the Guardians must dive to the ocean floor of Titan, as it is infested by the Taken and the Hive. They search the bottom of its methane ocean for something. This promises the solution of ancient secrets and further information about the origins of the Witness.

Rod Fergusson explained in an interview why Diablo 4 approaches things very differently than its predecessor Diablo 3 and that is why there is already a lot of content in the pipeline.
When Diablo 3 was released in 2012, service games were still in their infancy. Many games relied on expansions back then, not on live seasons and certainly not on free additional content.
Nevertheless, Diablo 3 was something of a pioneer in terms of seasons. Every few months, there were new mechanics to keep the gameplay fresh and give players a reason to play a new character in the new season. They made it until Season 28, but now it’s over.
However, Rod Fergusson, General Manager of the Diablo franchise, said in an interview with the YouTube channel “Kinda Funny Games” that more should have been done to provide decent content and innovations over the 11 years of Diablo 3 – the biggest problem of its predecessor, which had to get by with just one expansion over all those years.
They have adapted to this and are taking a completely different course with Diablo 4.
Diablo 4 had some worshippers praying to Lilith in Berlin at its release. We were there, check it out in the short video:
Start video
Diablo 4: The Live Event for the Release in Berlin – Younger Worship Lilith
What is different about Diablo 4? They wanted to create something that lasts a long time and continually benefits from new content. For this, they set up the development team quite differently and also had different expectations of themselves: “The release of Diablo 4 is not the end, it’s the beginning,” says Fergusson.
They want to offer many years of seasons, with each one offering more than the times of Diablo 3. In addition, expansions are also part of the fixed program of Diablo 4. Therefore, the team and the structures had to be designed accordingly:
If you make a game like [Diablo 4], you have to make it sustainable. You can’t push the team and say that once the release is through, it’s like a finish line and everyone collapses exhausted.
Because you know what: We have a season coming soon, we have the Week-2 patch in the works, we need balance changes – you have to build your team and structure so that it’s sustainable, because we have to deliver all the time.
We are working on things in parallel. While I sit here, we are bringing the main game to market, we are finishing Season 1, we are working on Season 2, we are working on Expansion 1, we’re starting on Expansion 2. All of this is happening right now.
The interview does not provide information about future content – only a brief statement about the legendary cow level. However, it is already clear that two expansions are apparently in the works, surpassing Diablo 3 directly.
You can watch the entire English interview on the YouTube channel of Kinda Funny Games (via youtube.com).
Despite the 11 years since the release of Diablo 3, the game still had a lot of fans who can no longer expect innovations after the end of Season 28. It remains to be seen whether Diablo 4 can close this gap. What do you think?
ARK: Survival Evolved has a new creature that players can leverage to their advantage. It is a beetle that can even carry a T-Rex.
What kind of beetle is this? On June 2nd, ARK: Survival Evolved added a new creature, the Rhyniognatha. This is an extinct beetle that belonged to the class of arthropods and can be found on the maps “The Island” and “Lost Island”.
As an omnivore, the giant insect in ARK feeds on both meat and berries, but cannot be tamed through feeding. Instead, a wild Rhyniognatha fertilizes one of your dinos, such as a Giganotosaurus, which later dies at the birth of the beetle.
You can adopt and imprint the newborn insect like a bred creature.
What can the beetle do? The Rhyniognatha brings a wide range of abilities that players can utilize in their struggle for survival.
Particularly useful is the beetle’s mobility. It can not only walk but also fly and carry up to two players on a saddle. The Rhyniognatha can also land on water and, for example, regenerate stamina there. Diving is also possible with the insect.
Furthermore, the Rhyniognatha is capable of carrying heavy objects and creatures and flying them to another location. Besides a safe, a tree platform, or even an industrial smelter, the giant beetle can also haul larger dinos. This cool beetle is thus the only creature in the game that can carry, for example, a Tyrannosaurus Rex and a Diplodocus.
Additionally, the Rhyniognatha possesses:
the ability to shoot a resin shot at other beings that inflicts damage and immobilizes the victim after a certain number of hits
a type of armor made from resin that surrounds its own body
a roar that scares and drives away other creatures
We are embedding the trailer for the Rhyniognatha here:

“The best Sky-Mount in ARK”
What do players think of the beetle? Many players agree that the Rhyniognatha is truly strong due to its multitude of useful abilities, perhaps too strong (via YouTube):
peterstoric6560: “Damn, they just casually created something that looks like the most overpowered creature in the game.”
Siturba: “Game designer: How strong should this beetle be? Wildcard: Godlike.”
cgdino9040: “This will be the best Sky-Mount in ARK.”
How strong the Rhyniognatha really is will be revealed in the coming weeks. Perhaps the beetle will even be a candidate for our list of the 10 best dinos in ARK.

A gamer is having his broken graphics card replaced. In return, he receives not only a significantly faster model but also a code for Diablo 4, which you would normally pay 70 euros for.
A broken graphics card is always annoying, as the GPU is often the most expensive component of a gaming PC.
However, one user recently had luck in misfortune. The seller from whom he bought the old graphics card not only offered him a faster model at no extra cost but also included a game code for Diablo 4. After all, it wasn’t Diablo 4 that destroyed his graphics card.

Diablo 4 Beta: Performance and fun are on point, but important questions remain unanswered – The conclusion of the MeinMMO editorial team
High Corona prices help with free upgrade
In a post, the player explained how it happened (via reddit.com). His graphics card had broken down, and he contacted his seller. Initially, he wanted to send him the same graphics card again, but apparently did not have it in stock anymore.
Instead, he was offered an RTX 3070 from another manufacturer. The user explained that he had bought his graphics card during COVID and paid nearly 700 euros. He then asked the seller if they could send him an RTX 4070 as a replacement. Currently, it also costs between 600 and 700 euros in Germany (via geizhals.de).
The seller agreed and also included a code for Diablo 4 as a gesture of goodwill. Currently, Nvidia and Blizzard are running a promotion: with every sold RTX 4000 series card, you get a Diablo code.
He confirms his entire story with a screenshot from the email exchange with the seller.
How does the community react? Very positively. Many praise the seller and say that this attitude is what good customer support is called. Not only is the graphics card exchanged, but a game code is also included, although he really didn’t have to do that. As someone writes: “If the dealer offers you a free upgrade when the card is defective, then that isn’t your dealer, but a buddy.”
How do you even notice that the graphics card is broken?
Why a graphics card breaks can have various reasons:
Poor maintenance.
Below average cooling.
Subpar manufacturing.
Or simply the old age of the graphics card.
In fact, there are many signs that your graphics card might die soon. If you experience regular graphical issues (so-called glitches and artifacts) that none of your friends have in the current game, you should first update your software.
If the errors persist and the graphics card also makes strange noises, you should take a closer look at the GPU.
Regular blue screens are also a sad indicator that your graphics card might not last much longer.
And before you go out and buy an expensive RTX 4000 graphics card: Many gamers still play with years-old graphics cards, and for many, that is still completely sufficient:
Bungie new IP “Matter” could be the successor to Destiny 2. The 3rd-person action game, which heavily focuses on PvP battles and esports, is colorful and sounds like Overwatch with Destiny heroes. MeinMMO takes a look at what we know so far about Bungie’s new IP.
Which new game is it about? Bungie is known for developing iconic titles such as Halo, Marathon, Myth, Oni, and Destiny 1 and 2.
During the PlayStation Showcase on May 24, 2023, Bungie caused a big stir when it recently revealed new information about the new IP “Marathon”. This is an extraction shooter focused on PvP in a sci-fi universe.
However, the AAA developer from Seattle has another project in the works and is concurrently developing a second IP currently referred to as “Matter” alongside Destiny 2 and Marathon.
“Matter” is likely a multiplatform 3rd-person action game with multiplayer levels.
It is said to focus heavily on PvP battles and the esports landscape.
There was talk of “lighthearted and quirky characters”and live service.
For development, the Unreal Engine 5 seems to be used, asthe Tiger Engine was mainly developed for first-person shooter games like Destiny 2.

Destiny 2: Teaser trailer for the DLC “The Final Form”
After all, it is known that after the current DLC “Lightfall”, there is only one expansion left for Destiny 2. It will conclude the Light and Darkness saga of the loot shooter in 2024 with the expansion “The Final Shape”, which, according to Bungie, will have a “dramatic conclusion”.
However, this will not be the end of Destiny, as Bungie has repeatedly emphasized.
Narrative Director Adam Grantham of Bungie revealed that the expansion “The Final Shape”, like “Lightfall”, will not answer all questions in the current storyline of Destiny 2. “We want to keep some secrets alive”.
Secrets that they might use as cliffhangers in the new game?
Destiny Universe as a hero-based action shooter: It has already been speculated that “Matter” could be a character-driven action hero shooter experience, similar to Overwatch, Valorant, or Apex, directly connecting to the Destiny saga.
Destiny has a wealth of outstanding good and evil characters, which have been continuously developed by the developer over the past 7 years with extensive stories.
Bungie also appointed developer Joseph Ziegler as Game Director. He has an impressive background for the highly successful competitive first-person shooter Valorant from Riot Games.
Additionally, they hired Jordan Patz, the former Design Director for Respawn’s Apex Legends Mobile, as Game Director for an undisclosed project.
What are Overwatch and Valorant as games?
Both Overwatch and Valorant are known for their competitive gameplay, team-based mechanics, and strong focus on multiplayer interactions.
Overwatch is a team-based first-person shooter from Blizzard Entertainment. The game combines elements from various genres such as first-person shooter and multiplayer online battle arena. Players choose from a variety of heroes with unique abilities and fight in teams for objectives and control over the battlefield.
In Valorant from Riot Games, players also select from several agents with different abilities and then fight in teams to achieve objectives or eliminate opposing players.
Not enough is known yet: The fact is that Bungie will venture into the character-driven genre. While speculations hint at a possible connection to Destiny, it is still too early to make definitive statements about it. It is likely something new and therefore not or only indirectly connected to the Destiny Universe.
At least a few initial announcements hinted at this:

However, it could also just be a placeholder image. The “lighthearted and quirky characters” sound more like a new, creative vision from Bungie, as they venture into uncharted territories, such as a “comedic atmosphere”.
The 3rd-person perspective is not completely alien to Bungie, but it has been a while since they last used it. With Oni, the developer already had a 3rd-person shooter featuring melee techniques in an anime-like style back in 2001.
This would also fit well with Bungie’s own statement: “The future of Bungie games is more diverse than ever.”
When is “Matter” supposed to be released? In an interview with 4Gamer, Design Director Jacob Benton stated that Bungie apparently has its sights set on releasing “Matter” in 2025. This coincides with the narrative “restart” of Destiny.
Whether “Matter” ultimately represents a direct continuation of Destiny 2 or a standalone IP with new creative visions remains to be seen. However, Bungie seems ready to venture into unknown terrain, or better yet, into unknown “matter” in order to push the boundaries of its expertise.
We are excited for more details on “Matter” and invite you to share your thoughts and speculations in the comments. What are your expectations for Bungie’s new game? Do you believe Bungie can achieve the success of Destiny 2 with it?
Perhaps Bungie might even find itself competing with Matter – something that many other games have never managed:
In Pokémon GO celebrated the Water Festival with the debut of the sand pile Pokémon Sandygast, known as Sankabuh in German, in the game. We from MeinMMO will show you how to find and evolve this little monster in the coming days.
Which Pokémon is it about? Currently, the Water Festival is taking place in Pokémon GO. In addition to many familiar faces like Shellder and Staryu, you can also meet the sand pile Pokémon Sankabuh for the first time.
We have summarized what kind of monster it is, where you can find it in the coming days, and everything about its evolution below.
How long does the event last? The Water Festival started today, on 06/06/2023, at 10:00 AM local time and will run until June 12, 2023, at 8:00 PM local time.
What kind of Pokémon is Sankabuh?
This is Sankabuh: Sankabuh is a Ghost and Ground-type Pokémon from the 7th generation of games. Visually, it resembles a light sand pile with a small red shovel stuck in its top.
It also has a small pair of eyes and a big hole resembling a mouth. Due to this distinctive appearance, Sankabuh is referred to as the sand pile Pokémon.
Sankabuh and its evolution Colossand
Sankabuh can be evolved into Colossand with the help of 50 candies. Unlike its pre-evolution, this one resembles a sandcastle. It has two small towers that it uses as arms, its mouth now resembles a castle gate, and its eyes look like small windows.
On the top, Colossand is decorated again with the red shovel and is also adorned with colorful shells on its body. Overall, its body is somewhat yellower than that of Sankabuh.
Is there shiny Sankabuh? No! Currently, there is no shiny form of Sankabuh available in the game. If it ever becomes available, you will recognize it by its black body and a yellow shovel.
Unlike most other monsters, Sankabuh cannot currently be found in the wild. However, during the Water Festival, you have the following opportunities to obtain the new Pokémon (via leekduck.com):
Raids: Sankabuh will currently be found in level 1 raids. There you can battle the monster and catch it after the fight. The raid is very easy and can be done alone by a trainer without any problems.
Timed Research: You can also obtain another Sankabuh from the timed research “Water Festival: Beach Week”, which can be purchased for 6 Euro during the event. So, if you buy the research anyway, you can look forward to an additional encounter with the sand pile Pokémon.
Field Research: If you want more specimens and maybe don’t want to do raids, you can also look for the event field research “Water Festival: Catch 25 Water-type Pokémon.” Sankabuh is also hidden behind this. Since Water-type Pokémon are currently spawning at almost every corner, solving it shouldn’t be a problem.
To get the research, you just need to spin the photo disks at PokéStops. However, which quest you receive is random. You can see them afterwards in your field view, which you can access by clicking on the binoculars.
This is how strong it is: Sankabuh is among the Pokémon in Pokémon GO that are not particularly strong and therefore do not play a role in the GO Battle League or in raids. And even its evolution Colossand is only slightly better. While it has a good ground moveset, its poor stats in battle make it not particularly strong and easily defeated (via gamepress.gg).
Pokémon GO: The strongest attackers of all types in the video
Is it worth it at all? Currently, Sankabuh is mainly interesting for collecting for the Pokédex. Since there is still no shiny variant of the Ghost and Ground-type Pokémon, shiny hunters are still out of luck for the time being. However, this will change with its debut. When that will be remains to be seen.
How do you like the new Pokémon from the 7th generation of games? Have you already secured one? Or are you more interested in other monsters? Feel free to let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments.
In total, 5 hardcore players are now known to have reached Level 100 (via d4race.com / as of: 06.06. – 10:30 AM). Among them is also the renowned Diablo expert ‘wudijo’, who was the first player to reach Level 100 solo in hardcore mode.
You can watch the ‘legendary’ moment when cArn_ breaks through the level barrier here in the Twitch clip:

cArn_ then also draws a short conclusion with his teammates: ‘It wasn’t easy, but it was fun.’ Similar to the first softcore player to reach 100, this group also played the dungeon ‘Downfall of the Champion’ from top to bottom.
After the milestone, cArn_ makes it clear with an exclamation that it was quite exhausting to grind through the last days since the release in early access: ‘I’m free,’ he says. Only to then joke: ‘Straight back to the second one?’
After that, he casually plays for another 5 hours with his group in Diablo 4, almost completing 24 hours of streaming. In the end, he clocked 23:30 hours and his entire 4-man team has reached Level 100 in hardcore mode.
Like the first player to reach Level 100, cArn_ also played a Whirlwind Barbarian. This build was considered the best in the game shortly after release.
However, there has already been a patch with adjustments for all classes. If you want to browse through our class tier list a bit, check it out here: Diablo 4 Tier List – Best Classes at Release

Christoph Hartmann joined Amazon Games in 2018. Since then, he claims to have improved a lot at the studio. MeinMMO editor Alexander Leitsch agrees with this statement and is therefore very optimistic about the new MMORPG based on The Lord of the Rings.
The German manager Christoph Hartmann has been working in the gaming industry since 1995 and was initially part of the team that created Grand Theft Auto. He worked for the publisher Take-Two, founded the studio 2K Games, and has been Vice President at Amazon Games since the summer of 2018.
Amazon has tried to establish itself in games, and I think they have approached the topic more like a tech company rather than a gaming or entertainment company.
When they brought me in for the first time, with a lot of experience and knowledge about the gaming industry, and when they gave us the room to breathe that we needed, it got better.
When I read this statement, I instinctively nodded my head. I noticed this especially with Breakaway and Crucible. They wanted to bring innovation, but mainly in genres that were currently dying out. Both games were clean in terms of content, but they lacked a uniqueness. New World would have probably fallen into the same trap if they had stuck with the original concept.
But since 2019, I have experienced a noticeable turnaround. It fits that the team from New World is working on the new MMORPG.
Who is speaking here? Alex is the MMORPG expert at MeinMMO. He started in 2005 with Rakion, Guild Wars 1, and Ragnarok Online, and now he mainly plays Guild Wars 2, ESO, and New World. In the latter, he has spent over 1,000 hours.
New World changed direction late, but it was the right move
You can see this turnaround most strongly in New World. It was initially intended to be a survival MMO, with a strong focus on PvP. Then it would have had to compete for player numbers on Steam with titles like Rust, DayZ, or Last Oasis. Instead, in 2019, they decided on a radical course change, focusing suddenly on dungeons and even on raids starting July 2023, and made PvP optional.
However, none of the mentioned games came even close to the peak numbers of New World. The biggest competitor here is ARK: Survival Evolved – with 248,405 concurrent players on Steam, excluding the console version. New World had 913,634 PC players at launch.
I myself spent many hours in New World in 2019, even before it announced its pivot to PvE, and I assure you: The MMO did not have the level of Rust or ARK and would have died just as quickly as Crucible. The weapons had no abilities at all, the walls of captureable fortresses could be stacked, and the combat system was even clunkier.
A little insight can be seen in this old video of mine:
Start video
New World: Die ersten Schritte in der ursprünglichen Version
Of course, New World released too early as a PvE game. The MMORPG would have needed a good 12 months to develop a meaningful gear system for endgame, implement more content, and especially to focus more on bug hunting.
However, the fundamental decision to switch from a PvP to a PvE game was a huge success. I also count the marketing campaign and the use of Twitch, which have created the hype around New World.
And everything that happened afterward with the MMORPG was very positive:
There were regular and very important updates, including new dungeons, weapons, a clear gear structure, and a new endgame area
The MMORPG has had a clear course since 2022 that it follows
Additionally, the developers have started to communicate and discuss more openly. An adjustment that I, as a fan, very much welcome.
Amazon established dominance in MMORPGs, which benefits The Lord of the Rings
If you look at Amazon Games’ portfolio, the target audience becomes clear immediately. Initially, they relied on a colorful mix of hero shooters (Crucible), battle royales (Intensity), MOBAs (Nova), and a modified version of Rocket League (Breakaway), but now they are primarily focused on MMORPGs.
What I find most exciting is the MMORPG based on The Lord of the Rings, which is being developed by the New World team. Some have criticized this precisely because the game experienced such a rapid decline in player numbers. However, I find it brilliant:
The team has already gained experience with the release of a game and can better prepare for launch issues.
They know how to manage an MMORPG in live operation and can address issues like endgame problems more quickly and prioritize better.
They can flexibly shift manpower between the two games as necessary – such as for the release of a new expansion.
Moreover, much seems to indicate that this could also tackle the major criticism regarding development, such as through promotions in the career ladder in the other game or more flexible deployment options. However, that is just speculation on my part.
It also benefits the studio that Michael Frazzini stepped down in 2022. He started his career in 2003 at Amazon in the book department and had also been Vice President of the Games division until 2022. However, under him, many games and ongoing developments were interrupted and an insider report stated that he allegedly had no knowledge of gaming.
For me, it seems that a course correction has taken place at Amazon Games in recent years – also thanks to Hartmann. He gives me a positive feeling for the upcoming MMORPG and also for the future of New World.
Of course, The Lord of the Rings must differ significantly from New World, especially regarding server structure or the design of the open world. There is no guarantee that the development team will succeed. But after the last nearly 1.5 years, I trust them to do it.
What do you think about the development of Amazon Games? Are they the right studio for the next MMORPG hit?
League of Legends has produced many iconic champions, whether through their appearance or their playstyle. One of the most important champions is the ADC Jinx, and she was created by two newcomers.
Who is Jinx? Jinx was released in League of Legends in 2013 and holds the ADC role. She quickly gained popularity and was also the first champion to receive a music video.
How was Jinx created? At Riot, there was a sort of bulletin board where employees could share their concepts for champions. The new illustrator Katie De Sousa posted a first concept drawing of Psycho Arsenal on this bulletin board.
An idea that later became Jinx.
This drawing was on the bulletin board at Riot for a while. The relatively new champion designer August Browning, who was working on the champion Vi (later Jinx’s sister), was so fascinated by this concept drawing that he and a small group wanted to realize Psycho Arsenal.
He always wanted to develop a weapon-switching champion inspired by Udyr.
August Browning and Katie De Sousa teamed up. Browning stated that he worked on Vi during the day and at night he, Katie De Sousa, and a few other employees worked on realizing Psycho Arsenal.
However, the original design was too generic for Katie De Sousa. Psycho Arsenal became smaller and her weapons grew larger. Jinx was born.
She wasn’t entirely like Udyr but still received some weapons. With her Q, she switches between a Gatling gun and a rocket launcher, her W is a small pistol, and with her E, she throws small grenades. With her ultimate, she fires a massive rocket across the entire map.
This is what the final design of Jinx looked like:
Jinx was the first champion to receive her own music video in 2013. According to August Browning, the Jinx in the music video is the perfect representation of Jinx.
After just one year, August as a new developer then released 2 champions. Vi was released at the end of 2012 and then her sister Jinx in October 2013.
With the release of Blizzard’s Diablo 4, certain prices in the MMORPG World of Warcraft are rising. The gold goblins in the auction houses are almost throwing their hands up in disbelief. But what is going on?
Which prices are rising in WoW? The auction houses of World of Warcraft are essential for many players. Not only because you can acquire powerful armor or cool mounts there. You don’t even have to manage your playtime through a subscription; you can use your WoW gold for that. With WoW tokens that are offered for gold, you can also extend your playtime.
It is precisely these tokens that have been massively increasing in value over the past few days. But why is Diablo 4 behind this?
You can buy Diablo 4 with WoW tokens
How does it work? The tokens (also known as WoW-brand) work in two directions:
You can buy them for €20 and then sell them in the auction house for gold
You buy them in-game for gold and can then exchange them on Battle.net for 30 days of playtime or €13 in credit
The gold price in the auction house varies depending on supply and demand. If the auction house is saturated with players offering WoW brands, then the price is lower compared to when only a few WoW brands are offered.
Those who currently possess a lot of gold in WoW can invest it in WoW brands and then exchange them at Blizzard for Battle.net credit. With this credit, you can purchase the full version of Diablo 4 from Blizzard, for example.
The price has risen drastically: Looking at the price development of the WoW brand, it is evident that it increased significantly during the release times of Diablo 4.
The website WoWTokenPrices looks at the daily price fluctuations of the WoW token depending on the region.
The development of token prices in the EU region – Source: WoWTokenPrices.com
The chart shows the peaks on June 2 (early launch of Diablo 4) and June 6 (release of Diablo 4).
Shortly before the release of Diablo 4 on June 6, the price of the WoW brand stabilized at around 350,000 gold. Today, on June 6, the peak reached 414,000 gold. An increase of about 64,000 gold. In the last 7 days, the lowest price was only 326,458 gold. This would compare to an increase of almost 90,000 gold.
How much would Diablo 4 cost with WoW gold? If you want to buy Diablo 4 with WoW gold, you need to invest quite a bit. A WoW token currently costs 414,000 gold and brings €13 in credit. The standard edition of Diablo 4 costs €69.99 on Battle.net. You would need to roughly sell 6 tokens for €13 to have enough credit for the standard edition. That amounts to 2,484,000 gold.
How does this price increase occur? One possible explanation is that many WoW players are currently using their gold to buy WoW brands and then exchanging them at Blizzard for credit. With this credit, they can purchase Diablo 4 without having to spend their “money”. They pay with the gold they earned from World of Warcraft.
Due to the release of Diablo 4, it seems that more players want to buy these WoW brands right now than before the release, when the price was quite stable at 340,000 gold or less.
