Is the Spotlight Hour with Koknodon worth it?

How strong is Koknodon? Koknodon itself is not a particularly useful monster, but its evolution Rameidon is!

This is especially true in raids and gyms: There, Rameidon is one of the absolute top attackers of the Rock type. Its Crypto version is even the strongest Rock attacker you can currently play. So make sure to collect plenty of candies for Koknodon during the Spotlight Hour if you already have the Crypto variant to improve it.

Can Koknodon be shiny? Yes, Koknodon can be shiny. You can see how the Pokémon looks shiny in the image here:

Is the bonus worth it? As mentioned, the transfer bonus applies to all Pokémon you transfer – not just Koknodon. So you can get candies for monsters you still need. But remember to keep one specimen!

The best competitor for Battlefield is set to relaunch on Steam; the first test ensures full servers

Cedric Holmeier 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

The Battlefield-like shooter BattleBit Remastered has returned with a massive update on Steam and is causing a surge on the test servers.

What kind of game is this? The shooter BattleBit Remastered may not look particularly attractive at first glance due to its low polygon graphics. Nevertheless, the shooter became a surprise success in 2023, after players had not received a “good” Battlefield in years.

Equipped with full servers and typical Battlefield chaos, many players had a great time for a few months before the title vanished again.

After 18 months without significant events and an update on Steam, the shooter is suddenly making a comeback with a massive update.

Here you can see a trailer of BattleBit:

Start video

Autoplay

Great Surge on the Test

What is this update? With the massive update “Operation Overhaul,” the developers want to bring BattleBit Remastered back into the public eye. They have added a whole range of features:

New map “Mesa” with plenty of verticality
Existing maps have received updates and changes
The movement in the game has been improved
The weapons have received new balancing and have also been revised in their handling
The handling of vehicles has been revised
The audio design of the game has been adjusted
The graphics have been polished
The interface and controls have been redesigned
There have been numerous improvements and bug fixes

The major overhaul of the title generated a lot of excitement among fans, who were able to try out the upcoming patch for four hours. Over 200 players per server were accommodated, and those were fully utilized on several servers. However, the surge resulted in rather mixed feelings.

How was the test? Fans only had 4 hours to test the new “Operation Overhaul.” Those hours were marked by technical difficulties alongside new experiences. The test did not run smoothly technically, and there were massive “Memory Leaks” and significant lag, as described by PCGamesN.

The state of BattleBit Remastered was unplayable for some testers. The graphics update also caused frustration. The new graphics seem unsuitable for low system requirements, and players on older machines faced performance issues.

Nevertheless, the surge on the servers was a positive aspect. Despite the long break, many players dared to return to the title, giving BattleBit Remastered another chance, which resulted in full servers, even though the test duration of four hours was tight. The new features themselves are also well-received. According to PCGamesN.com, players praised the new helicopter handling, interface, and new map.

Despite the limited testing, the developers have likely been able to gather some data and player experiences that could make the update “Operation Overhaul” a success. But whether it will catch up with Battlefield 6 remains to be seen. The battle for the biggest shooter of 2025 may already be decided: The biggest multiplayer shooters from autumn 2025 ranked – Which game grabs the top spot?

Max Handwerk 1. December 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

In December, Pokémon GO will have five Spotlight Hours. Which Pokémon and bonuses are on the schedule?

What is Spotlight Hour? Spotlight Hour takes place every Tuesday at 6:00 PM. Here you can catch a specific Pokémon that is highlighted for 60 minutes.

Additionally, you will receive a bonus for each Spotlight Hour that you can take advantage of.

The following list provides an overview of all upcoming Spotlight Hours in December 2025, along with information and a brief assessment.

Start video

Autoplay

Spotlight Hour on December 2, 2025

Which Pokémon appears? You will encounter the Headbutt Pokémon Koknodon. It is a Rock type and evolves into Rameidon.

What bonus is active? You will receive double the amount of Candy for all Pokémon you send.

Is the event worth it? In the PvP League, neither Koknodon nor Rameidon is useful, but Rameidon is a very useful monster in raids. Especially the Shadow version is very strong, ranking number 1 on the Rock list. The bonus is also helpful!

Is there a Shiny Koknodon? Yes, Koknodon is available as Shiny.

Spotlight Hour on December 9, 2025

Which Pokémon appears? Schilterus is the Pokémon on December 9. It is a Rock and Steel type. The Shield Pokémon evolves into Bollterus.

What bonus is active? When you catch a Pokémon, it will grant you double the amount of XP. This applies not only to Schilterus but to all Pokémon you encounter.

Is the event worth it? In raids, Schilterus and Bollterus are not particularly useful, but in the Super League, Bollterus is still a top Pokémon today. Especially if you can power it up as close to 1,500 CP as possible with XL Candies.

Is there a Shiny Schilterus? Yes, Schilterus can be caught as Shiny.

Spotlight Hour on December 16, 2025

Which Pokémon appears? The Martial Arts Pokémon Lin-Fu will be in the spotlight on December 16. It is a Fighting type and evolves into Wie-Shu.

What bonus is active? Each catch gives you double the amount of Candy. This also applies to all Pokémon you catch – not just Lin-Fu.

Is there a Shiny Lin-Fu? Yes, Lin-Fu is also catchable as Shiny.

Spotlight Hour on December 23, 2025

Which Pokémon appears? The Ice and Water Pokémon Seemops will appear on December 23. It evolves into Seejong and Walraisa.

What bonus is active? Each evolution will grant you double the amount of XP.

Is the event worth it? The Seemops evolution Walraisa has some potential in the Ultra League and could be a good choice for your team. In raids, it’s okay as an attacker, but not a top choice. The bonus is great if you still need XP on your way to level 80.

Is there a Shiny Seemops? Yes, Shiny Seemops is available!

Spotlight Hour on December 30, 2025

Which Pokémon appears? The last Spotlight Hour features Botogel. The Ice and Flying Pokémon has no evolution.

What bonus is active? You will receive double the amount of Stardust for each catch.

Is the event worth it? Botogel is not a great attacker, but has a cool Shiny. So you can try your luck with it. And the Stardust bonus is always appreciated!

Is there a Shiny Botogel? Yes, the Shiny is available.

T1 loses to the LoL team of a Twitch streamer in Germany, having the greatest fun of their lives

Niko Hernes 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

The Faker team, T1, has been considered one of the best in League of Legends for years. After all, they have already secured 6 World Championship titles. However, they lost to a Twitch streamer’s team because they messed up.

Faker is arguably the most legendary LoL player of all time. With T1, he managed to win the Worlds for the 6th time in 2025. At the event Red Bull League of Its Own, which took place this year on 29.11.2025 in Munich, the Korean champion team faced European opponents. Among them:

The German Retired Team NNO
This year’s LEC champions G2
The French team Karmine Corp
And the team of streamer Caedrel, Los Ratones

At the tournament, only one match was played at a time, and there was the special rule that champions could only be played once throughout the entire tournament. The last match of T1 against Los Ratones was particularly exciting because one had to settle for a low champion pool.

For viewers, it was probably the most exciting match of the day because one saw T1 and Faker from a completely different perspective.

Faker unusually as a Support

How did the match go? Right from the champion selection, it was clear: T1 wanted to have fun. Unlike in previous matches, the Korean team mixed it up quite a bit, opting for unusual positions:

Doran stayed on the top lane with Kayle
In the jungle, the new ADC Peyz played as Vayne
Oner tried himself as Lulu on the mid lane
Keria was the ADC with Kai’Sa
Faker played the support

Los Ratones also showcased unusual picks:

Baus played his favorite champ Sion on the top lane
Nemesis experimented with Teemo in the jungle
Velja opted for Cassiopeia on the mid lane
Rekkles played as ADC again, this time with Jhin
Crownie was quite absurd with Twitch as support

Although T1 managed to establish a large gold advantage relatively early, Los Ratones slowly caught up after 15 minutes. After about 20 minutes, Los Ratones, known for their unconventional play styles, took the lead and managed to finish the match after about 28 minutes.

If you closely examine the match and the player cameras (via YouTube), you can see that both teams had a lot of fun. T1 seemed to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and the new roles very much. You can regularly see them laughing and making risky moves. This is also very much appreciated by the community.

How does the community react to the match? In a Reddit thread about the event, the match is received quite positively, especially because the players apparently had so much fun. mar33n (Reddit) particularly noted one player: T1 had so much fun that Doran couldn’t stop laughing in the last minutes.

Faker’s playstyle also stood out. Ashankura (Reddit) writes: Faker is such a troll, it’s insane. Absolutely insane. But Los Ratones also received praise as they now have a 100 percent win rate against T1, after 2 matches over 2 years.

Seeing T1 in a much more relaxed situation is a highlight for many players. The German team NNO was also able to hold its own against the world champions in 2024, even though they had a stand-in: LoL: Twitch streamer jumped in for sick friend, defeated world champion Faker, immediately retires

Player plays Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time, directly chooses the hardest mode, regrets the decision already in the 1st dungeon

Benedict Grothaus 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Baldur’s Gate 3 is known for its countless possibilities and freedoms, but less for its exorbitant difficulty. Especially veterans enjoy making the game even harder with mods. A player demonstrates that newcomers should not underestimate the challenge, as he almost ruined his first playthrough.

What kind of mode is this?

The “Honour Mode” is a special challenge with its own set of rules. It is essentially an “Ironman” mode with only one save, no ability to load saves, and with permadeath. If the party is dead, the game ends.
The difficulty is set to “Tactician”, which is the highest possible difficulty that already makes enemies stronger. Additionally, bosses gain new “legendary” abilities.
Those who complete the Honour Mode can boast an achievement and a set of golden dice.

This is how the player ruined the game for himself: On Reddit, a user explains that he is playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time and directly selected the Honour Mode. However, now he has a problem: almost his entire party is dead and he cannot revive them.

In his screenshot, he is seen standing in the Chapel Ruins, one of the first dungeons in the game. Only his Tav (meaning his own character) is alive, Astarion, Shadowheart, and Wyll are dead. He cannot swap or revive them:

I misjudged the difficulty of the game and started directly with the Honour Mode […] As you can see, I have three dead in my team, fortunately, I survived. I cannot take down a group of enemies solo. I cannot swap out a dead character in my team. Although I still have two living members in camp, they say the group is full… yes, full of dead ones.

He apparently has no more scrolls of resurrection or cannot reach the corpses. At this point in the dungeon, Lazarus, or in English: Withers, is also not yet in camp. But the community knows how to help.

“Withers should appear in your camp after a few Long Rests”

In the comments, a user gives the helpful tip that Withers should appear in camp after a few Long Rests, which new players often delay out of fear of missing the story.

He can then ask the skeleton to resurrect his friends and simply steal the money back from him – a trick that many Honour Mode players apply, even if it is morally questionable.

Even some more experienced players did not know this. However, there is often advice for the creator to just start over. That is smarter for the beginning.

von Benedict Grothaus

Because the Honour Mode is more manageable when you already know the story and know what to expect. The creator explains that he chose the mode because he does not trust himself to not reload saves, the popular and often used “Save Scumming.”

However, he can also simply create a custom difficulty with only one save, but without the challenges of the Honour Mode. This way, the newcomer can enjoy the game without the “danger” of reloading and without ruining a save right away.

Baldur’s Gate 3 can quickly present new players with challenges not only because of its difficulty but precisely because of the scope that is otherwise often praised. Newcomers who do not stick around quickly lose track: A player fails even after 1,200 hours in Baldur’s Gate 3 at a simple task, making it even harder for themselves

One of the most powerful beings from Middle-earth is missing in the Lord of the Rings films

Christoph Waldboth 1. December 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

Middle-earth is full of mysterious beings, yet not all of them made it into Peter Jackson’s well-known movies. One of them is particularly mysterious and presumably belongs to the nature spirits of Tolkien’s world.

Who is meant? Even her name sounds pleasantly natural: Goldberry. She is a character from J.R.R. Tolkien’s world and appears in “The Lord of the Rings.” There she acts as the wife of Tom Bombadil, who is also a character that remains puzzling to fans to this day.

Goldberry is no different. Her short appearance leaves an impression, especially on the hobbits around Frodo who meet her. Just before, Tom Bombadil saved the group in the Old Forest from the Old Man Willow, a malevolent tree that corrupted the nature around it.

Together, they go to Bombadil’s house, where they meet Goldberry. She takes in the travelers, tells them about her husband, and eats with them. She appears to the hobbits as extremely friendly, and her appearance makes an impression.

Goldberry is an elegant person, her hair is long and golden, she wears silver-green clothing and adorns herself with flowers. Generally, she is rather quiet and reserved. However, when she speaks, her voice sounds like the babbling of a river. This is not a coincidence, for although the hobbits are unaware, Goldberry is anything but an ordinary inhabitant of Middle-earth.

Start video

Epic Trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship

Autoplay

Daughter of the River

What kind of being is Goldberry? Like Tom Bombadil, Goldberry is a mysterious character about whom not much is known. Where she comes from and what her exact origins are is unclear. However, she is referred to by Bombadil as the “Daughter of the River.” This indicates that Goldberry is neither a human nor an elf but a spirit being of the nearby river Withywindle.

This river flows from the Barrow-downs through the Old Forest, further through the Marish in the Shire, until it eventually joins the great Brandywine River. Goldberry is the daughter of the river-woman who lived in this river. The river-woman does not herself appear; she is only mentioned by Tom Bombadil.

As a river spirit, Goldberry is most likely immortal, yet she appears in a form reminiscent of an elf or human. She is most likely inspired by nature spirits from English folklore.

The author and Tolkien expert John D. Rateliff even assumes that Goldberry belongs to the Maiar – thus to the most powerful and oldest beings that ever existed in Middle-earth (via lotr.fandom.com). Sauron was also one of them. They could change their shape at will, which would explain why Goldberry appears in the form of a woman even though she is actually a spirit being.

What is certain is that she is clearly associated with the element water and, according to a letter from Tolkien, also has influence over the seasons (via ardapedia.org). But what stands out the most is her character. Her conscious, elegant demeanor and cheerful temperament captivate not only the hobbits. Even Tom Bombadil could not help but be fascinated by it.

How did Goldberry and Tom meet? The hobbits encounter the two only in the Third Age. Long ago – when exactly is unclear – Tom Bombadil set out to seek the region of Eriador in the northwest of Middle-earth. On his way, he was stopped by the inhabitants of the area who wanted to capture the mysterious wanderer.

Goldberry was swimming in the river Withywindle and pulled Bombadil under the water by his beard. By the power of his voice, he was able to stop the river spirit and was released. However, this story did not end there.

Already the next day, Bombadil returned and asked for Goldberry’s hand. Shortly thereafter, the two were married.

Why doesn’t Goldberry appear in the movie? The character, like Tom Bombadil, fell victim to the fact that Peter Jackson had to make tough decisions in his film adaptation. Not all characters and side stories had room in the film.

For this reason, the hobbits’ excursion into the Old Forest is missing. This is very unfortunate for fans of the source material, as two of the most mysterious figures are absent, but it likely benefited the already proud runtime of the films to forgo Goldberry and her husband.

While Tom Bombadil does not appear in the films, he does show up in Amazon’s series The Rings of Power in the second season. Goldberry cannot be seen, but her voice can be heard, which enchanted the hobbits.

A player deletes numerous games on Steam, regrets it, and desperately turns to support

Alexander Mehrwald 1. December 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

Many might know it: You think unclear for a few seconds and suddenly you permanently delete games from the Steam library. A player thus contacted support and was not disappointed.

What happened to the player? As 3lizardintrenchcoat shares on Reddit, he deleted many of his games permanently from his Steam library over the years during some hard phases of his life. Now he regrets it and reached out to support with his concern.

He additionally tried to find out which games he had deleted to tell support more specifically which games it would concern, but had the problem that only active and paid games were displayed in the purchase history. Thus, he could not determine which games were specifically missing from his library.

3lizardintrenchcoat asked support to either restore the deleted games or, if that was not possible, to provide him with a list of all deleted games. Either option would make him very happy. Shortly after his request, he already received a response from support that saved his day.

Start video

What did support do? A few hours after his request, the player received the response from Steam support that his library had been restored. He should check if he was missing anything and could also get a list of all deleted games if he still needed it.

The player is so grateful that he shares his request with the answer on Reddit and initiates it with “I think I’ve never experienced a company as nice as Steam… Thank you very much.” Over 40,000 upvotes and currently 747 comments (as of: December 1, 2025, 11:30 AM) celebrate with him, and many agree with him.

Many of them can relate to the feeling, having done similar things on other platforms during tough times. Whether out of anger, sadness, or to harm oneself, they give him encouragement and positive thoughts for his further journey.

However, some also point out to him that he can also restore deleted games himself if needed and bring them back into his library. How to do that, we will explain to you once, so that you can also help yourself in case of doubt.

Restore deleted games on Steam yourself – here’s how

Here’s how to get deleted games back on Steam: If you have permanently deleted a game from your library, you can also retrieve it through the same window you used to delete the game. However, if the deletion was a while ago, you must at least know that you deleted it before; there is currently no overview of all deleted games.

If you want to retrieve a specific game, follow these steps:

Click on the “Help” tab and then on “Steam Support”
Then search in the bar under the tabs for the game you want to retrieve

Then select your desired game, and you should be able to select the field: “Restore the previously removed game/package”

Click on it, and your game will return to your library. However, this only works if you know which game you deleted. If you do not know that, contacting support is the better option, as shown in the example of 3lizardintrenchcoat.

Players love the rooster in ARC Raiders so much that they would even pay to carry him on their backs

Caroline Fuller 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Thousands of players agree on one thing: If one of their favorite NPCs from ARC Raiders were to receive a specific cosmetic, they would all be willing to pay for it.

What kind of cosmetic are we talking about? The player theBreG shared an image on Reddit, which has been celebrated by the community with nearly 6,000 upvotes. It shows a backpack on the back of a Raider that offers a glimpse of its contents through some kind of window. In there, you can see a small passenger, the NPC and helpful rooster Scrappy.

The poster of the image adds that this backpack with Scrappy is “the only cosmetic I’d spend real money on.” And with that thought, he is not the only one, judging by the many upvotes and reactions from the community. Because Scrappy and the idea for the backpack have many fans.

A rooster can unite the opinions of many players

How does the community react and what ideas do they have? Regarding the helpful rooster in ARC Raiders, the community seems to share a common opinion on Reddit: They needed this backpack yesterday.

“Embark, give me the Scrappy capsule and my life belongs to you,” pleads Varazzeno, and NickNair1089 also believes that the rooster deserves more attention in the game: “Why don’t we ever see a random Scrappy wandering around the map? I’d love to see that.”

Other players already have more specific ideas about what features such a Scrappy backpack could have. Instead of the signal flare that gets fired when a Raider goes down, the crowing Scrappy should be launched into the air. Or Scrappy could forgo the backpack altogether and run around with the player to collect loot.

As long as Scrappy is around, judging by the reactions, many players would be satisfied. The only condition is: Scrappy must stay safe.

What is Scrappy actually for? Scrappy is a resourceful rooster who collects metal parts, fabric, plastic pieces, chemicals, and various seeds while a Raider is on the move. Through various items, he can even receive upgrades that allow him to evolve from a chick to a looter and treasure hunter to a master collector.

One of the most interesting graphics cards of the year does not come from AMD or Nvidia, but from China

Benedikt Schlotmann 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

One of the most interesting graphics cards does not come from AMD or Nvidia, but from a Chinese manufacturer. The reason behind this: China wants to become more independent of US products.

The Chinese manufacturer Xiang Dixian has presented a new graphics card at the ICCAD Expo. This is reported by the English-language magazine WCCF-Tech.com. The presented so-called Fuxi graphics card is based on a chip from Imagination Technologies: The chip is DirectX capable and also offers features such as ray tracing and upscaling. With 12 GB of video memory, the card is also equipped for the future.

The card is technically exciting because it is said to offer similar features on paper as graphics cards from AMD or Nvidia, but independent benchmarks and precise specifications are still missing, leaving the real performance unclear. Moreover, there is another problem: The chip from Imagination Technologies is allegedly said to support DirectX only up to version 11.0 and not the latest version 12. This is stated by the manufacturer Imagination Tech on its own website. This would mean certain limitations in everyday use.

How fast is the graphics card? The manufacturer already showed a short demo of the graphics card with the game Black Myth: Wukong at the ICCAD Expo. In the shown clip, with ray tracing enabled, the GPU is said to have reached about 35 FPS. Black Myth: Wukong supports both DirectX 11 and DirectX 12.

In the end, it mostly depends on how good the drivers for the graphics card will be.

The Chinese tech market wants to become more independent of the USA

Why are such graphics cards important? Due to strong US export controls, the Chinese market wants to become more independent to remain competitive. With the presented graphics card, they aim to offer a modern and locally available graphics card with DirectX support without being constantly reliant on US products from AMD or Nvidia.

They mainly have gamers and professional users in mind, who care less about perfect performance but more about having hardware available at all.

Will the graphics card also come to Europe? Often, these graphics cards are primarily produced for the domestic Chinese market to become more independent of the US market. Such graphics cards tend to come to Europe and the German market through indirect means, such as through AliExpress.

For everyone who has been playing World of Warcraft for many years, it is probably a sheer horror scenario. You enter the account details to log in – but nothing happens. Your account has been compromised, and a stranger now has access to the game. Such things happened more often back then, as many accounts were repurposed into farming bots. But one player even ended up being happy about it – as he could afford more and made the hacker character his main.

What happened? The player, who goes by the name Number1DestryJones in the WoW Subreddit, explains in a post what happened to him. Back in the days of Wrath of the Lich King, his account was hacked. After he was able to prove that he was the original buyer, he regained access to his account and found quite a mess, as he describes:

Blizzard gave me my account back, and I logged in expecting chaos.
And, oh my! What a chaos it was.
A Death Knight on a random realm (a realm I rarely played on, Tichondrius) was suddenly at level 62. Mining was completely leveled. All bags and the bank were filled with stacks of ores. Literally a starter kit for gold farmers.

What the gold farmer intended to use to earn gold that would then be traded for real money turned out to be a nice gift for the WoW player.

Ores of the Hacker Become a Blessing for the WoW Player

The player then quickly turned the ores into gold and stocked up nicely. Not only were the expensive riding skills purchased, but also some mounts and various equipment. All the ores were worth a whopping 20,000 gold – and that was quite a lot back then.

The funniest part of it? In the end, the hacked Death Knight became my new main. I never really planned to play Death Knights, but after I logged in and saw that he already had a head start… I just stuck with it. I played him for years. He is still one of my favorite characters I’ve ever had.

How did Blizzard react? 20,000 gold was a large sum back then, and when a just “retrieved” account spends that much at once, it stands out. However, Blizzard apparently settled for just removing the remaining gold – as Number1DestryJones was allowed to keep what he had bought with it:

I used [the gold] to learn riding, buy mounts, and everything else I could buy before Blizzard noticed.

Sure, the next day Blizzard wrote to me, and the message basically said, “Yes, the gold was earned through unauthorized activities” and set my gold back to the value I had before. BUT they let me keep everything I bought with it.

The hacker basically paid for my account upgrades. Thanks, unknown gold farmer.

For most people, the idea of the WoW account being hacked is quite unpleasant. However, it is nice to see that such a story can also have a happy ending. Has your account ever been stolen? What was it like for you afterwards?

Amazon releases first anime with AI voices, fans say: “I prefer silence to this”

Jasmin Beverungen 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

In March 2025, Amazon announced that initial pilot projects using artificial intelligence would start on Prime Video. Now the first anime have been released, utilizing full synchronization with AI.

Which anime has been affected? According to anisearch, 2 anime have so far been affected in Germany, which have received English AI synchronization: Banana Fish and Pet. In other countries, No Game No Live: Zero and Journal of Mysterious Creatures are among the titles offered with AI dubbing.

The surprising part: Some of these series already have professional English dubbing but are not offered with it on Amazon. Instead of providing the human-done dubbing, Amazon has decided to create its own AI dubs.

High School of the Dead, Karakuri Circus, and Vinland Saga are also said to have been released with AI dubs, but in Spanish. Again, there is already a human-made dubbing available.

Anime fans prefer silence over this AI translation

How good is the result? A clip on X is going around, showing some moments from the anime Banana Fish. It is noticeable that the AI voice hardly works with highs and lows. Rather, it seems like a nervous student is reading their presentation from slides and wants to quickly return to their seat.

This comes across as particularly emotionless in a very emotional scene. A character is dying. Yet the protagonist Ash Lynx only utters a neutral “Please don’t leave me.” A human voice would likely have screamed, whimpered, or whispered here to express shock and sorrow.

How is the AI dubbing received by fans? To sum it up: not well at all. On Reddit, numerous fans are complaining about how bad the AI dubbing has turned out. They say that the anime deserved better.

One user even claims that the dubbing is so bad that they would rather hear only silence than the machine-generated voice. Fans are asking companies to stop using AI because no one wants that.

Even streamer and YouTuber penguinz0, nominated as Content Creator of the Year, has stepped in. He released a video on YouTube titled “Unwatchable Trash”. It accurately reflects his opinion.

Hytale developers reveal launch date, while simultaneously warning against purchase

Cedric Holmeier 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of Minecraft-like Hytale have announced their Early Access launch, but at the same time warn against the start of the title.

What is the status of Hytale? After Hytale experienced an immense hype in 2018 through a trailer with now 61 million views on YouTube, the title was initially bought by Riot. However, the game was never completed at Riot, and in 2025, the end of the title was also announced.

However, the original developers of the title were able to buy it back from Riot and are taking development into their own hands once again years later. Just weeks after the purchase, Hytale is now set to go into Early Access, but the developers warn about its current state.

Here you can see current gameplay of Hytale:

Launch despite major problems

What are the developers warning about? Although Hytale will be released on January 13, 2026, the developers warn in their current post on Hytale.com against purchasing the game. They have decided to revert to the old game engine from back then and are currently attempting to integrate over 300 new developments at various stages of completion into the game.

This not only leads to bugs, but the existing features are also at varying stages of development. Hytale is currently simply in an early development stage that is far from finished. Similar to the alpha and beta versions of Minecraft, they aim to progress towards a more polished game from version to version.

How much will Hytale cost? The head of the development studio behind Hytale recently shared his thoughts on the game’s price on X.com. He personally bought back Hytale with his money and would also bear a significant risk due to the low price. The now 50 employees also need to be paid.

The price for Hytale will be $19.99, with the expectation that the game will be available in Europe for a price between €16.99 and €19.99. Those who want to spend more money on the game can secure the supporter pack for $34.99 (approx. €30) or the cursebreaker founder pack for $69.99 (approx. €60).

The packs only offer cosmetic rewards and serve solely to support the developers. There are capes and hats for buyers.

You never saw the feet of an important character in Star Wars 48 years ago, but this led to a problem in 2016

Niko Hernes 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Star Wars not only established many iconic characters back in 1977, but the behind-the-scenes stories are also exciting and sometimes funny. There is a very simple reason why an important character in the film is only shown from the waist down.

Which character is it? Grand Moff Tarkin is already a special character in the first Star Wars (1977) because he shows no visible fear of Darth Vader. Although he dies in the film, the character left an impression, likely due to the actor Peter Cushing.

In the film itself, he is always seen in camera shots from the waist up. This was not an artistic decision or coincidence: The military boots of the Empire were simply too small for the actor.

Start video

Autoplay

The small shoes also caused a problem in 2016

What was the issue with the small shoes? As Peter Cushing explained in an interview (source: YouTube), he had a shoe size of about 46, which is just under 30 cm. Those are relatively large feet, and no special shoes were made for the actor’s costume. Therefore, initially, he wore shoes that were actually much too small for him. He recounts the story of his first shooting day as follows:

So there I was on the first day of shooting, [as] this very angry, unpleasant man, Grand Moff Tarkin, stamping around, and it was torture, really.

Due to the painful first shooting sessions, he asked director George Lucas to film him only from the waist up so he wouldn’t have to wear the small shoes. He then simply wore slippers: So I stomped around angrily for the rest of the film and was very upset with the dear little Carrie Fisher as Grand Moff Tarkin in slippers.

However, in 2016, this led to another problem for the film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Peter Cushing passed away in 1994, but for the film, they wanted to bring him back digitally. As the Daily Mail reported in 2015, there were issues with digitizing Peter Cushing because they never saw his feet. According to the source from the Daily Mail, the special effects team went through hours and hours of horror films featuring the actor to represent his legs and feet.

Where else is Peter Cushing known from? Peter Cushing appeared in over 100 films between 1939 and 1986. His last film was The Biggles Effect (1986). Throughout his career, he starred in many horror films, including:

Curse of Frankenstein (1957)
Dracula (1958)
Tales from the Crypt (1972)

Today, Star Wars is known as a massive franchise with huge budgets, but back in 1977, everything looked quite different. For special effects, since CGI was not so common yet, they had to improvise. Even with the well-known lightsabers: The old lightsabers of Star Wars and street signs have something in common and the trick is genius

Where Winds Meet penalizes players from the West, now they are demanding a simple change

Cedric Holmeier 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

In Where Winds Meet, you can not only enjoy the action-packed story but also have a lot of fun in the PvP arenas and game modes. However, players from the West are now complaining about unfair disadvantages.

What are these disadvantages? Since Where Winds Meet was also released in the West, there is no real server structure that forces players to choose a server in their region for themselves and their friends.

Instead, you simply start playing and the servers are automatically selected. In PvP, there is also no way to choose a server based on ping. This currently leads to the problem that players from different regions are thrown into one pot.

This means a player from Germany might end up facing someone from Japan. Since the servers are mostly hosted in China, the player from Japan has a significant ping advantage, which is especially noticeable in PvP. This frustrates the players from the West, who are now addressing the developers with a demand.

Here are some reasons you can use to convince your friends to play Where Winds Meet:

A change makes PvP much fairer

What do players demand? The players of Where Winds Meet are now demanding a change to the current matching system. In a post on Reddit, they discuss the current system and also mention that it would be better to set up matchmaking so that players only compete against others with similar ping.

Players are discussing this on Reddit:

Lpunit: “As a NA player, I almost always lose to players from China on global servers, as their ping allows them to attack despite combos, causing desync. It’s frustrating and increases towards Mythic rank. Without a solution, I see no future for the competitive scene of the game.”
LoafingSeal: “Desync is a massive problem, even against players from the same city. In PvP, you’re fighting half the time against lags, desync, and teleportation instead of actual opponents.”
Leafstealer__: “In a game like WoW, that would be okay, but in fast action fights, high latency feels terrible and destroys the main appeal of the game. Given its worldwide success, a server whitelist for matchmaking is absolutely necessary.”

Players are understandably annoyed by the missing feature. Other games quite naturally offer matchmaking for regions or based on ping.

The fact that it is missing in Where Winds Meet could be due to the title initially being available only in China, where players there generally meet with a relatively similar ping. For the global release, this system should have been developed accordingly.

It is still unknown whether and when the developers will release changes to the PvP in Where Winds Meet. So far, however, the developers have already fixed some features and bugs for Western players. Where Winds Meet will become even bigger in the future: Where Winds Meet already has significantly more content in China, and the timeline shows what we can look forward to soon.

Twitch: The biggest german streamers in December 2025

Johanna 1. December 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

The German-speaking area of Twitch is huge and hosts many big names in livestreaming. We give you an overview of the five biggest male streamers every month.

What kind of list is this? Determining the “biggest” and thus probably most successful streamer of a month is not so easy. After all, there are several factors that make a Twitch streamer successful: watch time, viewers, or followers.

We have decided to set the following conditions for the Twitch streamers on our list:

Average viewer numbers determine the ranking
Time period is 30 days
The channel language is German, nationality does not matter
Commercial and/or event channels are excluded
Our source: sullygnome

This list was updated on December 1, 2025 at 10:25 AM.

Rank 5: HandOfBlood

Name: Maximilian Knabe
Channel: HandOfBlood
Average viewers: 15,946
Channel created on: September 17, 2013
Most streamed categories: Minecraft, Just Chatting, ARC Raiders

HandOfBlood has been active as a content creator since 2010. His career began on YouTube, where he uploaded tutorials on the games League of Legends and Lord of the Rings Online.

He eventually started producing Let’s Plays for all kinds of video games and was long considered a YouTuber who put an extremely high amount of effort into his videos, for example with costumes and props.

Since early 2025, HandOfBlood has retired from YouTube as his main platform and is now focusing on Twitch. HandOfBlood plays video games on Twitch, but also regularly invites celebrity guests, such as director and actor Michael “Bully” Herbig.

Average viewers: 17,699
Channel created on: May 31, 2010
Most streamed categories: Just Chatting, Anno 117: Pax Romana, RV There Yet?

Gronkh is one of the pioneers of the German YouTube and Twitch scene. He gained popularity with his first Let’s Plays on YouTube, where he showcased his enormous worlds built in Minecraft. His humorous and down-to-earth nature has made him a role model for many of today’s YouTubers and Twitch streamers.

From 2014 to 2016, his YouTube channel was the largest in Germany. His Steam account is now so old and valuable that he could buy several PS5s with it.

Finally, Gronkh focused more on livestreaming rather than constantly recording Let’s Plays, allowing him to reach a new audience. Recently, the Let’s Player stood out when he supported his Twitch colleagues in their Minecraft project “Craftattack,” causing many to get nervous.

We summarized Gronkh’s career in this video:

New PvE MMORPG on Steam will soon let you tame animals like in WoW, but you can also ride them

Karsten Scholz 1. December 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Mounts kommen zu Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen! Die besitzen Seltenheitsstufen, Attribute und müssen gezähmt werden. Das System erinnert an die Jäger-Begleiter aus World of Warcraft.

Was ist zu den Mounts bekannt? Die Reittiere sollen euch nicht nur die Reisezeiten durch die Welt von Terminus verkürzen, sondern ein essenzieller Bestandteil des MMORPGs werden. Dazu gehört es, dass ihr Mounts nicht einfach beim Händler kaufen, sondern in der Wildnis zähmen müsst.

In der offiziellen Ankündigung auf pantheonmmo.com erklären die Entwickler ihren Plan genauer:

Unsere Vision ist es, einen kampf-freien, fertigkeitsbasierten Spielzweig zu bieten, der es Spielern ermöglicht, Reittiere zu zähmen und zu verwalten. Dabei liegt der Fokus auf Fortschritt, Sammlung, Handel und einer sinnvollen, stat-basierten Vielfalt an Reittieren.

Sprich: Jedes Reittier besitzt Seltenheitsstufen und Attribute wie Geschwindigkeit, Ausdauer oder Stabilität. Wer besonders mächtige Mounts reiten möchte, muss dafür seinen Zähmen-Skill steigern. Über einen Stall könnt ihr eure gezähmten Tiere verwalten.

Nach der Einführung der Mounts und Zähmen-Mechanik sollen mit kommenden Updates weitere zähmbare Kreaturentypen (anfangs könnt ihr nur Pferde zähmen), aber auch Reittier-Ausrüstung oder auch die Zucht von Mounts folgen.

Start video

The Fantasy MMORPG Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen is coming to Early Access on Steam

Autoplay

So zähmt ihr euer Mount

Wie funktioniert das Zähmen? Ab Stufe 20 erhaltet ihr Zugang zu einer Quest, über die ihr das Zähmen erlernt. Das Zähmen eines Tieres funktioniert dann wie folgt:

Nutzt den Befehl /consider oder die Kurztaste „C“, um herauszufinden, ob ihr das anvisierte Tier zähmen könnt.
Nähert euch dem Tier und setzt „Reittier zähmen“ ein. Das ist eine Fähigkeit, die ihr 10 Sekunden lang kanalisieren müsst.
Das Tier wird feindselig und greift euch an.
Wenn das Zähmen erfolgreich durchläuft, bevor eure Ausdauer verbraucht ist, müsst ihr es innerhalb von 30 Sekunden reiten, um das Zähmen erfolgreich zu beenden. Wenn ihr das nicht tut, verschwindet das Tier.
Schlägt der Zähmungsversuch fehl, flieht die Kreatur und verschwindet.
Bringt das Tier bei Erfolg zu einem Stall, um es dort zu registrieren. Nur so bleibt es in eurem Besitz, wenn ihr euch teleportiert oder gewaltsam vom Rücken des Mounts geworfen werdet.

Durch Köder könnt ihr eure Chancen auf eine erfolgreiche Zähmung spürbar erhöhen. Bietet einem Pferd etwa erst einen Apfel an und startet dann die Fähigkeit.

Das System erinnert uns an das alte Zähmen von Jäger-Begleitern in World of Warcraft. Seinerzeit musste man dort ebenfalls einen kanalisierten Zauber ausführen, der fehlschlagen konnte. Als „Köder“ fungierte im besten Fall ein Mitspieler, der die Bedrohung des Tieres auf sich gelenkt hat, damit der Waidmann in Ruhe seine Zähmung durchführen konnte.

10 powerful spells for Dungeons & Dragons that you definitely want to get anyway

Alexander Mehrwald 1. December 2025 Reading time 6 minutes

Everyone knows them: Those players who have to lick every magical artifact in Dungeons & Dragons and are not shy about any curse. Here are therefore 10 curses that you would even consider wanting to have yourself.

What are curses in Dungeons & Dragons? Curses are a great tool in Dungeons & Dragons to loosen up the story a bit, to give players tasks that require teamwork, or to “punish” cheeky players without directly taking away their fun. We all know those players who can’t walk past a magical artifact or a mummy without at least taking a look at it.

However, curses require a bit of sensitivity from the dungeon master, as there are no concrete, summarized rules about them, as in a chapter of a rulebook. Instead, you’ll encounter smaller rules that relate to specific spells, magical items, or the abilities of various opponents or creatures. They usually involve temporary physical changes, increased vulnerabilities, or value deficits and can often be ended by spells like “Break Curse” or “Greater Restoration.”

For this reason, curses offer great potential, as dungeon masters can introduce them at will to provide players with incentives for exciting role-playing phases and creative teamwork… only to end the whole thing a bit later.

Autoplay

It is important to ensure that the curses handed out are not too frustrating and match the respective player type, to prevent any dissatisfaction. Additionally, there should always be a feasible way for the group to get rid of it – if in doubt, the dungeon master should intervene and provide assistance. The origin of the curse can be a spell, a magical item, or a deal with a fae being or something similar.

Therefore, we provide you with 10 ideas that primarily focus on role-playing and are entertaining enough that you would want to have them yourself. With all the suggestions, you can, of course, consider whether you want to add other penalties and how you want the group to dissolve it.

Perhaps you also know more from your campaigns that you absolutely want to share or more ideas come to you from our suggestions. Feel free to write them to us in the comments!

Curse of Ruthless Honesty

Do you have bards, warlocks, or rogues among you who do not take the truth very seriously? Or have you just committed a series of crimes and could soon be caught? Then this curse is for you!

It loosens your tongue and prevents you from lying. Of course, you can also opt for silence, but how long will that last? Here you have to get creative about how you can still conceal the truth. Or you let it out and see what happens. Optionally, you can add the possibility that it is still possible to lie, but then you have to expect a negative consequence, such as damage or similar penalties.

Where Winds Meet reaches a new milestone

How many players are playing Where Winds Meet? On November 29, 2025, the developers announced on X a fresh status update: 9 million players are said to have played Where Winds Meet in the first 2 weeks after launch.

How many of them use the PlayStation version is unclear. On Steam, more than 200,000 players are still roaming around in the Wuxia world during prime time on weekends (Source: steamdb.info).

The reviews on Steam currently stand at a strong 88 percent positive, with nearly 70,000 players leaving a rating. Particularly high praise is given to the graphics, combat system, scope, the world, and the payment model. Criticism, on the other hand, is directed towards the nested menus, the Gacha system, or the crude localization.
