If you turn into a Scream Queen in horror games, you might want to steer clear of this: A new co-op game on Steam aims to punish you for every scream and tries everything to elicit one from you.
Which game is being talked about? Don’t Scream Together by developer Digital Cybercherries has nothing to do with the very similarly named Don’t Starve Together, but it does share two similarities with the game:
Both games are co-op spinoffs of a previously released single-player game
Both times, a simple “Together” (meaning “together”) has been added to the name to symbolize the co-op aspect
Here you see a short teaser showing what you can expect:

Don’t Scream Together: Neues Koop-Horrorspiel auf Steam bestraft euch, wenn ihr schreit
One scream and it’s over
What is the game about? In Don’t Scream Together, you and your friends wander through a pitch-black forest at night. Your goal is quite simple: You need to survive until 8 AM and escape the forest. Time only passes when you move.
The whole affair becomes more difficult because you should remain as quiet as possible during your walk in the woods. The game is designed to get you to scream. The developers themselves describe Don’t Scream Together as an “Online Co-op Jumpscare Horror Simulator,” so you can expect many jumpscares.
A single scream can reset the game for everyone or at least make it harder for the remaining players. This depends on the chosen game mode, of which there are two according to the Steam page for the game:
Scream & Restart: If someone screams, the entire team has to start over.
Scream & Return as a Hunter: The game continues, but the screamer returns as a hunter who can also scare others.
Do I need a microphone to play the game? Yes, to play Don’t Scream Together you must have an active microphone. Otherwise, the game cannot react to your screams (and that would be cheating). In the game, you communicate via a proximity chat: Other players can only hear you as long as they are near you.
When will the game be released? Don’t Scream Together will be released on December 3, 2025 on Steam.
In Dragon Ball, the orange suit belongs to Son Goku like the stars to the Dragon Balls. The creator of the manga, Akira Toriyama, once asked the fans to design a new suit for the Saiyan.
What kind of request was that? In chapter 163 of the manga, Toriyama surprised the readers with an unusual request: Before the story even started, he asked the fans on the title page to come up with a new outfit for Goku.
The reason: Son Goku had just defeated King Piccolo and would receive his growth spurt in the upcoming chapters. At 12 years old, Goku was still a child and had the same height as a five-year-old child. At 18, he suddenly was as tall as an adult man. The anime Dragon Ball Daima explained this phenomenon in more detail.
It’s clear that Goku no longer fits into his old suit. Therefore, Toriyama wanted to know how the fans imagined the Saiyan in a new outfit.

Fans design a new suit for Goku, Toriyama draws it
What did the suit look like? Although the author ultimately chose a different suit for Goku, he showed in an image which outfit from the submitted fan designs it would have been.
10 chapters later, he depicted the suit as the cover for the new story arc.

Unlike his final outfit, the fan design features a white belt and white socks.
The symbol of Master Roshi’s school is also a hexagon and not a circle.
Additionally, the neckline is larger than in his actual suit, with a black tank top peeking out underneath that has no sleeves.
The orange suit also has darker areas that are ultimately missing in the Saiyan’s solid-colored suit.
Throughout Dragon Ball, Son Goku has naturally worn other outfits besides his fighting suit. However, the fan design only made it onto a cover of the manga, never into the story itself.
AI is not only a relevant topic in the job market; toy manufacturers are also jumping on the trend. However, AI toys are anything but safe. One manufacturer had to pull their teddy bear from the market.
AI is now used in many areas of life. Certainly, not only adults are an important target group. There are now toy manufacturers that focus on AI toys. This includes not only classic robots but also teddy bears.
However, researchers have found that these toys are anything but safe for children. One manufacturer has now removed their AI teddy bear from the market.
Select a MMO video…
AI teddy bears could teach children dangerous things
What is the problem? The company FoloToy released the Kumma bear, which stood out negatively in a study (Source: Futurism). It looks like a regular teddy bear, except it has an AI chatbot implemented. It is based on Chat GPT-4o from OpenAI. In the study, the bear gave several dangerous tips:
The bear explained where to find matches and how to light them.
Additionally, the teddy bear could give tips on where to find knives or pills.
One of the testers was even recommended dating apps (because he asked about matches, which can also mean “strikes”). It seems to have gone as far as discussing kinks, and the chatbot also talked about sexual practices and fetishes in tests.
Many of the testers mentioned that these hints from the teddy bear were delivered in a child-friendly tone. According to CNN, FoloToy describes the Kumma bear as follows:
From lively conversations to educational stories – FoloToy adapts to your personality and needs, bringing warmth, fun, and a little extra curiosity to your daily life.
What happened after the findings? The teddy bear from FoloToy, which was sold for 99 USD (around 85 €), has now been removed from the market. The CEO of FoloToy, Larry Wang, told CNN that an internal safety review is being conducted. Other AI-based toys from the company are also said to have been pulled from the market for now.
What is the problem with the AI models? The co-author of the study, RJ Cross, explained to Futurism that this type of technology is new and unregulated. There are new risks that we cannot even imagine right now. He says: If I were a parent now, I would not grant my children access to a chatbot or a teddy bear with an integrated chatbot.
The online trade has also made it quite simple to buy unverified toys. Additionally, AI chatbots are unpredictable. However, it should also be noted that the Kumma bear from FoloToy had the most extreme results of the AI toys tested. AI can also be a threat in other areas: The head of ChatGPT says: AI will destroy jobs that are not “real work”

About a week ago, there were strange activities on the Instagram channel of the ZDF show Bares für Rares. Now the mystery surrounding it has been solved and announced who the show will go live with on Twitch next week.
Who is Bares für Rares going live with on Twitch? After an alleged “hacker attack” on the Instagram channel of Bares für Rares, the community speculated on who might be behind it. It was finally “revealed” that it was supposed to be an intern who allegedly demanded a joint Twitch stream with a “famous Twitch streamer” in return.
Meanwhile, a new TikTok video from Bares für Rares has clarified who will make their debut on Twitch with the ZDF show: Peter Smit from PietSmiet. The debut livestream is scheduled for Monday, November 24, 2025, at 6:30 PM on the ZDF Twitch channel (twitch.tv/zdf). It will be streamed from the original studio of Bares für Rares.
These are the 5 most relevant German streamers on Twitch in 2024, according to Google
“Before GTA VI!?”
How does the community react? Although Bares für Rares is broadcast on linear television on the ZDF channel and addresses a different audience than online, the format has also made its way into the minds of younger viewers on social media. Especially through memes that are compiled and uploaded on TikTok and other platforms. For example, the “What will be” meme.
With the collaboration and livestream on Twitch, Bares für Rares seems to have hit the nail on the head. In the comments under the announcement TikTok, the community seems to be very positive:
The Greeny_FV_TF can hardly believe it: “PIETSMIET X BARES FÜR RARES BEFORE GTA VI?!”
Max is also a bit perplexed by the composition: “Peter X Horst was not on my list for 2025”
Meaph0r is mourning the missed meeting of HandOfBlood and Horst Lichter a bit (source: Reddit): “I would have loved to experience the dynamic between Horst and President Knabe.”
Dune Awakening has been available on Steam since June 10, 2025. So far, the developers have held two testing phases of the survival MMO. Now there is another one and additionally a good discount for you.
What is this testing phase about?On Steam, the developers of Dune Awakening have announced that they are starting a third testing phase for their survival MMO. From November 20 to November 27, 2025, you can roam through Arrakis for free for 10 hours and fight over the spice.
During your free time, you can explore the entire Haga Basin and carry over your progress if you decide to purchase Dune Awakening. This includes all character progress, your inventory, the hard-built base, and vehicles, which can finally be comfortably saved with a new system.
How much does Dune Awakening cost with the discount? Along with the third testing phase, the survival MMO by developer Funcom is discounted. The biggest discount so far of 25% brings Dune Awakening to a low price of €37.49. The discount even lasts longer than the actual testing phase, until December 1, 2025.

With the testing phase, you can visit your friends in the desert
What is new this time? Unlike previous testing phases of Dune Awakening, you can also visit your friends in the desert this time. Previously, only new so-called “trial servers” were opened.
With the current testing phase until November 27, you are also able to join existing servers of your friends and play together with them.
Are all functions available to you? No, during the testing phase, access to three specific locations is denied. Harko Village, Arrakeen, and the Deep Desert are not available for exploration.
Communication is also somewhat limited. The developers do not specify exactly what these restrictions look like in their post on Steam. Only the reason to prevent bots and griefing was mentioned.
The Steam Machine has been introduced. MeinMMO has gathered the most important questions and answers for you and presents them to you.

Valve presents the Steam Machine in the new trailer
Product Information and Specifications
This section covers the basic facts, hardware details, and the possible components of the Steam Machine.
What is the Steam Machine anyway? The Steam Machine is an initiative by Valve to bring the PC market into the living room. The first attempt failed in 2018, four years after its market launch, with the first Steam Machine. Now the Steam Machine is making a comeback. Valve promises PC gaming in a compact form.
How much does the Steam Machine cost? Nothing is known about the price at this time (November 20, 2025). The Steam Machine probably won’t be as cheap as a console, reports a well-known YouTuber. Players and experts estimate that the price could be between 500 and 1,000 Euros.
What accessories are included? This is still unknown. A power cable will definitely be included.
Is a controller included? You can buy the Steam Machine either with or without the new Steam controller. The price will likely be a bit higher with the controller.
Is the Steam Machine upgradable? No, or only to a limited extent. The Steam Machine relies on a proprietary motherboard with a soldered CPU and GPU. Therefore, you cannot easily change the base. The general performance cannot be changed either.
Other components, such as SSD storage and RAM, should be easily upgradable. According to experts, the Steam Machine uses standard DDR5 laptop memory modules that you can buy on the market.
Will there be different models/versions? Basically, all Steam Machines contain the same hardware.
However, there will be models with different storage capacities: one model with 512 GB and one with 2 TB of storage.
Does the Steam Machine compete with my PS4 or is it quiet? Valve states on its own product page: “The Steam Machine remains cool and quiet even while playing the most demanding titles.” According to Valve, you shouldn’t expect a jet engine level noise like on the PS4.

Operating System and Compatibility
This section discusses the software base, the installed operating system, and the possibilities of use beyond Steam.
Can I also install Windows? Yes, you can! Valve has explicitly stated that you can also install Windows on your Steam Machine. However, the Steam Machine is optimized for SteamOS, so performance may be lower on Windows.
Can I use Epic, GOG, Battle.net on the Steam Machine? Yes, that is basically possible, but it involves some effort. If SteamOS is set up as it is on the Steam Deck, then you can install other launchers on the Steam Machine. Or access them using Lutris.
Can I use Game Pass? The same applies to Game Pass and streaming services as to the launchers: it is generally not a problem, but it involves effort. Using Game Pass on the Steam Deck was quite cumbersome because there is no official application.
Can I use the Steam Machine as a real PC? Yes, that is possible without any issues. The Steam Machine has a freely accessible desktop interface, just like the Steam Deck, where you can use a browser, use word processing software (LibreOffice), edit pictures (Gimp), or watch YouTube. Streaming on Twitch should also generally be possible.
However, if you want to install specific Windows software, you should expect to put in a bit more effort, for example, products from Adobe. If you want to install software directly from the Linux package management (think of it like a software store), it is very easy.
Can I use a mouse, keyboard, and other controllers? Yes, that works smoothly. SteamOS supports nearly all modern input devices, even mice and keyboards that are a few years older. Only specific software such as iCue (Corsair) or Synapse (Razer) may cause problems. The hardware itself should work perfectly.
This section focuses on the game selection, controls, and additional gaming features.
Is the Steam Machine a PC or a console? Valve intentionally sells the Steam Machine as a gaming PC and not as a console. And theoretically, you can do whatever you want with the Steam Machine, even install Windows. However, with a real console, like the PS5, that is not possible. The Steam Machine is also equipped with standard PC hardware that Valve has modified for its purposes.
However, the user interface and accessibility provide more of a console player experience.
Can I play all games? No. Many games can be played without issues through the Steam Machine and SteamOS, but some titles may have problems:
If games rely on a third-party application, such as Anno 117 with Ubisoft Connect, there may be difficulties.
Some anti-cheat systems are not fully supported by Linux, which can also lead to problems.
Especially games that you do not install directly via Steam or rely on very old copy protection measures (such as Securom) often do not run on Linux.
As a general rule, the tip is: Pay attention to whether games are verified for the Steam Deck (via Steamdeck.com). They should generally also run on the Steam Machine. In the future, there will be a separate category for the Steam Machine.
Can I enjoy the latest games in 4K and highest quality? That is rather unlikely. The performance of the Steam Machine is said to be closer to that of the PS5. You can play the latest games without issues, but you will have to live with limitations. Valve has also emphasized that 60 FPS in 4K is only possible with AMD’s FSR. The manufacturer stated in the official trailer:
Experience gaming at desktop level with FSR-supported 4K gaming at 60 FPS thanks to a modified AMD processor and a dedicated graphics card.
Without upscaling, performance will likely fall even lower. It is also disappointing that the Steam Machine still relies on RDNA3, which is AMD’s last generation of graphics cards. The best version, FSR 4, can therefore only be used by the Steam Machine in theory.
How user-friendly is the Steam Machine? The Steam Machine and SteamOS use the so-called “Big Picture” mode. This is a very user-friendly interface designed for controllers. Installing, uninstalling games, or browsing the store is very easy here.
If you want to actively use the Steam Machine as a PC alongside Steam, you will need some adjustment time for the desktop environment “KDE Plasma”. Because the interface looks different from Windows.
Can I install mods for my games? In principle, SteamOS and the Steam Machine support the official “Steam Workshop” of your games. This means that the most popular Skyrim mods can also be installed on your Steam Machine.
If you want to install external mods, such as from ModDB or Nexusmods, that is also possible, but it involves effort.
Can I install software like Discord? Yes, that should be possible without issues. You can install Discord directly through the desktop mode on the Steam Deck, for example. You can read how to install Discord on the Steam Deck on MeinMMO. On the Steam Machine, which uses the same operating system (SteamOS), it shouldn’t be much different.
Can I replace my gaming PC now? No, the Steam Machine is not a full-fledged replacement for a gaming PC. You need to make that clear to yourself. The hardware installed is not up to date and can only be partially replaced. While you are buying a compact and modern system, you will get less performance than if you bought a real gaming PC with RX 9070 XT or RTX 5070. However, Valve recently stated in an interview that the Steam Machine is faster than most gaming PCs.
Anyone looking to get more out of their gaming PC might consider buying a new graphics card. But does it even matter at the end whether I choose AMD or Nvidia? MeinMMO presents the similarities and differences between AMD and Nvidia and explains what you should consider before your next graphics card purchase: How important is it whether I buy AMD or Nvidia for a graphics card?

The developers of Path of Exile 2 have announced the next class for the ARPG in a new teaser. They also reveal the date for the next season.
Which class is coming? The developers of Path of Exile 2 are fulfilling a major fan wish, as the new class will be the Druid. The class has been talked about for months, and fans have hoped for the release of the Druid before every season announcement; now it is finally becoming a reality.
The Druid has the ability to shapeshift into an animal form, offering a very special playstyle. The announcement trailer already shows that the Druid can transform into a werewolf during a full moon. But this is not the only announcement in the short teaser.

What else have the developers announced? The developers of Path of Exile 2 have announced not only the Druid but also the next season. It will be fully focused on the new class, as shown by the name: “The Last of the Druids”.
The new season, which will also bring a large content update for Path of Exile 2, starts on December 12 at 20:00 CET. All new content regarding the Druid and the big update will be available a bit earlier on December 4 at 20:00 CET on Twitch.
How are fans reacting to the announcement? For many players, the Druid fulfills a long-held wish. Consequently, players are reacting joyfully to the announcement that the class is finally coming to the game. They write on Reddit:
Aztek917: “I really hope the werewolf form looks amazing.”
SoyDanson: “Holy smokes! Christmas came early this year.”
Enrayha: “Finally. Aside from greatswords and daggers, I have been most excited for the Druid and hopefully its new summons/pets.”
Ok_Service3956: “Poe.ninja will probably consist of 90% Druids.”
What else is planned? Just like at the start of the last season, the developers of Path of Exile 2 are planning to launch a free weekend. During this time, players on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC can play for free all through the release weekend from December 12 to December 15.
The last major update of Path of Exile 2 finally brought the auction house:
The free role-playing game Where Winds Meet received a new patch on November 20, 2025, that removes major bugs from the game. There is even compensation for players.
Update: We have expanded this article with more information about the event “Swords Unseen” and free items that were recently announced.

What has not been fixed yet? The team is aware of the high ping issue affecting many players. It found that parts of the EU and MENA regions were routed to the wrong server. Therefore, further optimizations will follow today, November 21, 2025, to connect these players to the correct server.
What do the developers say about the event? In a new update on Discord, the developers of Where Winds Meet announced that they will be adding more rewards for the new event “Swords Unseen”. Those who are further along in the event can collect these rewards after the patch.
As a sign of gratitude for the smooth release, the developers are also giving away 10 x the item “Lingering Melody” to all players. This allows you to pull 10 times for free in the gacha system of Where Winds Meet.
Furthermore, there will be a patch in December that addresses latency issues in single-player mode. The Eastwind Pavilion team asks for patience, also for potential further performance interruptions.
If you are having no performance issues with the game, but with the content, you are in the right place at MeinMMO. Here you will find an overview of all guides as well as tips and tricks to help you navigate the game better: Where Winds Meet: All guides, tips, and builds summarized

After the Worlds 2025 of League of Legends, some players are leaving their teams and looking for a new home. Gumayusi, the former ADC of Faker, recently left the most successful team in LoL, T1, and continues to be bullied online. Now even a politician has gotten involved.
Who is bullying Gumayusi? In a Reddit post, the text of a Korean politician was translated and published. This politician shared his thoughts on the topic of cyberbullying in a post on his social media channels, primarily criticizing the “fan group” of T1 called “T1 Support Gallery” or simply “T1 gal.” The creator of the Reddit post shared a brief overview of what T1 gal actually is.
What is T1 gal? According to williamson41 on Reddit, T1 gal is a forum, similar to the subreddit dedicated to T1 or the T1 board on 4chan. T1 gal describes itself as a group of fans, but they have been harassing Gumayusi for the past two years.
Aside from threats to kill him, there were also plans to harm him in real life by injuring him with acid or pushing him off a motorcycle so he can no longer play.
An X user already collected many actions of T1 gal back in August. Among other things, trucks were sent to the T1 building to discredit ADC Gumayusi with false statistics.

What does the politician say about cyberbullying? Jeon Yong-gi published a statement on November 20, 2025, titled: “End the cyberbullying against Lee Min-hyung (Gumayusi) immediately.” (via naver.com)
In this post, he addressed the group directly by name and commented on the personal attacks hidden behind the guise of advice and criticism. Jeon Yong-gi further states: “Team support can never be a justification for attacking a particular player, and the argument that one wants to encourage him during a temporary performance drop can be no excuse for malicious criticism.”
The fact that Gumayusi continues to be attacked, even though he has already left T1, is noted by the politician in his post and he doubts that there is genuine fandom behind it. He describes the activities of the community as “cyberbullying for entertainment.”
The politician wants to take measures against cyberbullying
What measures does Jeon Yong-gi propose? The politician proposed three levels of protective measures for players:
Esports organizations like KeSPA (Korea Esports Association), Riot Games Korea, and the individual clubs should no longer just be bystanders but take responsibility. He particularly emphasized the urgency of protective measures for young players.
From platform providers, like DC Insider, represented in T1 gal, he demands that they take action against those responsible for malicious posts.
The government should tighten criminal sanctions for defamation and insult.
Jeon Yong-gi wants to use the case of Gumayusi and T1 gal as an opportunity to advance legislative measures.
Jeon Yong-gi has been fighting against cyberbullying since 2020: Since the Korean politician took office in 2020, he has been combating cyberbullying. He initiated the initiative to abolish comments under sports news and recently submitted a bill to prevent cyberbullying.
After it became known that Gumayusi would leave T1, there were already initial rumors about the new ADC beside Faker. On November 19, 2025, it was officially confirmed that it is indeed the 19-year-old Peyz, who has already been able to break two of Faker’s records: New ADC of T1 in LoL is only 19 years old and has even broken Faker’s records

When the multiverse was nearly destroyed, Doom created the Battleworld, a new universe. In doing so, he acquired god-like powers and could manipulate the memories of all inhabitants.
When Thanos lands on Battleworld, he tries to find out what is going on with his soldiers. He learns about Doom and tries to take him out in his base. With his god-like powers, Doom easily takes out half of Thanos’ companions.
Doom offers him a pact, but Thanos refuses. He calls Doom a weak god and a fraud. He should kneel before him. Doom asks him if he has the Infinity Gauntlet. Thanos denies it but explains that his power is enough for him. Well, Doom takes Thanos’ entire spine out and finishes off the Titan with a single grip.

Contrary to what was assumed, fans of World of Warcraft will not have to spend several million gold on Transmog. Blizzard corrects a mistake properly.
For many Transmog fans in World of Warcraft, it was quite disillusioning when they could try out the new and supposedly much better Transmog system in the beta. Because anyone who calculated quickly made it clear: The new system is extremely expensive and those who want to equip several characters will probably have to pay huge amounts of gold.
But Blizzard has heard the criticism and clarified just a day later: This is not finished yet, and one thing is going to change fundamentally.
Start video
WoW Midnight shows gameplay – All new features
What was the problem? After the first version of the new Transmog system went live in the beta, disillusionment quickly set in. Because the new system costs quite a bit of money and gets more expensive the more characters you play. One had to pay up to 800,000 gold for 20 Transmog slots – that is, free slots that can be filled with sets. On top of that come the drastically increased Transmog costs of around 6,000 gold for a complete endgame set. The disappointment was great, and the criticism was clearly heard everywhere.
What is going to change? Blizzard responded to the criticism in the official WoW forum. There, community manager Kaivax wrote in response to the demand that unlocking the Transmog slots should apply to the whole warband:
This will be the case in Midnight. It will just take a few more weeks to implement this feature in the beta.
In a future build of the Midnight beta, unlocking the outfit slots will apply to the whole warband. And the costs to unlock these slots will not increase.
In other words: Instead of having to pay 800,000 gold for the 20 slots on each character, this will now only need to happen once. Depending on how many characters you play – and how many
What other criticisms are there? One criticism still stands, and that is the increased Transmog costs. If you want to fully customize your entire gear – including weapons – you pay nearly 6,000 gold at max level. That is more than 5x what it currently costs in The War Within.
This is partly offset by the fact that in Midnight, saved “sets” only need to be paid for once – after that, they are automatically applied to all items you wear or find.
This poses a problem for all those who like to adjust parts of their Transmog and often make small changes. Because they are charged just as often as before – only now at significantly increased prices. This adversely affects the player group that has so far used the Transmog system the most. Therefore, there is a strong desire in the community to reconsider these costs and reduce them to a lower level. If you want to take a look at the Transmog system yourself, check out the beta of Midnight – you can easily join in.

Many gamers know Gabe Newell because of Valve and the Steam platform. But who is Newell really? MeinMMO explains the details about this well-known personality.
Gabe Newell is considered by many players today to be almost the embodiment of Valve and its Steam platform. Many know him simply as the head of Steam, and significant changes or developments like the Steam Machine are viewed by many as his ideas.
But Newell is also regarded as a charismatic personality and regularly makes public appearances. He enjoys poking fun at his role as head through short appearances and exaggerates it. For instance, in a trailer for DOTA 2 add-ons.
But who is Gabe Newell really? MeinMMO explains who is behind the public persona and what makes him unique.
Birth, Studies, and Microsoft
Gabe Newell was born on November 3, 1962, in Seattle, Washington, USA. It is known that he has an older brother.
Originally, Newell wanted to become a doctor. From an early age, his interest in various topics became apparent, and initially, a medical degree seemed like the logical path. He reveals this in an interview (via PCGamer). However, computers were mainly a pastime for Newell at that time, and he himself was skeptical about their future.
He eventually began his studies at the prestigious Harvard University. The idea of becoming a programmer seemed far removed from his reality. IT was a field that very few considered promising at that time.
A coincidence opened the door to his professional life some time later: Newell visited his brother at Microsoft back then. There he met Steve Ballmer, one of the key figures at Microsoft, who was even CEO of the company from 2000 to 2014. Due to a spontaneous decision, Newell eventually became an employee of the rising software company, as he later recounted in an anecdote (via PCGamer). One semester turned into 13 years.
Time and again, the founder of Valve considered finishing his studies. However, Microsoft and the opportunities there kept him anchored, which is why Newell remained loyal to the company. He later spoke openly about this and reflected:
“At that time, it was the best place in the world to learn how to become a programmer.
[…]
When I started there, I realized that in terms of interesting work that would be valuable at that time, it was much better to work with hundreds or thousands of people at Microsoft than to go back and continue my studies at university. I was there for 13 years and then decided to found Valve.
The Founding of Valve
On August 24, 1996, Newell finally founded the company Valve together with Mike Harrington, a close colleague at Microsoft. The now 63-year-old stated that he founded Valve after the game Doom showed him that Microsoft “missed” the opportunities of the internet: “I was ready to put my words into action” (via PCGamer.com).
When Half-Life 1 was finally released on November 19, 1998, the game became a huge success. Neither Gabe Newell nor the publisher at the time, Sierra, expected this. Back then, no one could imagine it, but Valve broke the mark of 500,000 units sold.
The great success provided a financial cushion that was directly invested: in the license for Counter-Strike, Half-Life 2, and the distribution platform Steam.

Counter-Strike, Half-Life 2, and Steam
After the great success of Half-Life 1, Valve acquired all licensing rights to the popular Half-Life mod “Counter-Strike.” Newell quickly realized a problem: it was no longer feasible to provide patches and new content to thousands of players using traditional means.
For this reason, a far-reaching step was decided upon. The team developed a new foundation that would allow not only easier distribution of patches and content but also secure games. The idea for Steam was born, though it had another name at that time.
On September 12, 2003, the platform was officially available for the first time. Half-Life 2, which released on November 19, 2004, and Counter-Strike were now exclusively offered through this system. The development of Half-Life 2 almost led to bankruptcy for Valve, by the way.
But it didn’t stop with Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike. Starting in 2005, more games were added that were also offered through Steam. Since then, the software has been growing relentlessly. However, the decision to fully focus on Steam was not well-received by everyone:
Many users criticized the online requirement and the deployment of the new platform. Even well-known publishers saw no potential in Steam as a platform. But today, Steam is hardly imaginable without the gaming world. Alternatives like the EA App or Ubisoft Connect have never been able to match the success.
Between 2006 and 2007, Gabe Newell was not well. He suffered from Fuchs’ dystrophy, a hereditary disease that slowly destroys the cornea. Two cornea transplants saved his eyesight, he told in a conversation with Forbes.com.
From 2007 onward, progress continued steadily. Games such as Portal, an earlier mod of Half-Life, and other titles like Team Fortress 2 (2007), Left 4 Dead (2008), its successor (2009), and finally Dota 2 (2013) followed. Newell still enjoys playing Dota 2 to this day.
During this time, Newell frequently appeared in public to showcase his projects. Among gamers, he was also liked because he appeared to be one of them: unkempt hair, a bit overweight, just like a true nerd. And as someone who was passionate about his projects.
On March 20, 2013, Early Access on Steam was launched, allowing games to be released unfinished and players to be directly involved in development. A project that remains highly controversial to this day, as alongside real gaming gems, a lot of inadequate quality hits the market.
Players and experts regularly accuse Newell and Steam of spreading cheap and inferior software, and sometimes even extremist content: The regulations are said to be too lenient and the barriers too low to prevent trash or cheap mobile games (via techcrunch.com).
In 2014, Gabe Newell achieved another significant milestone: He was included in Forbes’ important billionaire list for the first time and thus counted among the richest people in the world (via ign.com).
Private Projects and the Steam Deck
In 2020, smaller and larger projects followed outside of Steam: In 2020, he founded the “Heart of Racing” team with Valve employee Yahn Bernier, a racing team for fundraising for children’s charities in Seattle and New Zealand. In 2022, he founded the company “Starfish Neuroscience” with Philip Sabes for developments in the field of brain-computer interfaces.
Originally planned for late 2021, the Steam Deck was finally released in 2022 after several delays. A good year later, in November 2023, the OLED variant of the Steam Deck followed. However, the built-in hardware remained identical aside from the display and battery.
In early 2024, a photo of Gabe Newell went viral in which many fans did not recognize him. Compared to previous appearances, he looked significantly slimmer, and his appearance and hairstyle appeared much neater than before. Fans emphasized at the time that these changes seemed to have done Gabe Newell a world of good, making him look significantly younger than before. He no longer resembled a nerd but rather a real businessman.
Although he is now a billionaire, the Steam founder still works daily. In an interview with a YouTuber, he recently revealed that he lives on a boat seven days a week and works from there. Newell explains that he actually works every weekday but enjoys his work, which makes it feel like retirement to him:
I work seven days a week: I work from my bedroom, as you can see. I enjoy working; it’s fun, and it doesn’t feel like work to me. The things I get to do every day are super great.
I’ve said this before, but when you retire, you want to quit your terrible job and do what is most enjoyable and entertaining. In that sense, I’ve been retired for a long time.
In October, Dispatch was released for PS5 and on Steam, but it wasn’t fully available until mid-November. The adventure game received praise at launch – now the developers show just how successful they really are. Player ratings are clear.
What kind of game is it?
You play as Robert Robertson in Dispatch, an ex-hero who now works in a sort of mediation center for superheroes. The gameplay can be roughly imagined like the famous Telltale games, Indie developer AdHoc consists of former employees.
Primarily, you make narrative decisions in cutscenes, but you also have to manage sending the right hero to reported crimes during gameplay. Each has their strengths and weaknesses.
Dispatch is doing well: The developers shared on BlueSky that just under a month after the initial release on Steam and PS5, over 2 million players are playing Dispatch. They have nearly reached the target originally set for a 3-year period (via GameseIndustry).
On Steam alone, Dispatch started with over 65,000 players in its first week, according to SteamDB. With the release of the last episode, the numbers exploded to over 220,000. Additionally, there are players on PS5.
With 97% positive reviews, Dispatch is “overwhelmingly positive” on Steam. Thus, Dispatch is close to being one of the games that reached the “God Tier” on Steam. The success is not without reason.

Dispatch boasts a top-notch cast, but especially the story captivates
The story of the adventure thrives on the characters that bring the game to life, playing an important role especially through their interactions with the player. Many famous voices are behind the characters, such as:
Aaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad) as Robert Robertson III
Laura Bailey (Jaina Proudmoore from Warcraft) as Invisigal
YouTuber MoistCr1TiKaL as Sonar and Jacksepticeye as Punch Up
Travis Willingham (Knuckles from Sonic, Gazlowe from WoW) as Phenomaman
Matthew Mercer (Cole Cassidy from Overwatch) as Shroud
Many of these names you may recognize not just from series, anime, films, and games, but also as members of the legendary role-playing group Critical Role, which just released a new series on Amazon in November with The Mighty Nein.
However, the greatest praise in the reviews goes to the story, or more accurately: the interaction with the story. Many players agree that while Dispatch feels more like a series, the conversations make you feel like you are part of it instead of just watching.
Diablo 4 attracts casuals as well as those who grew up with the franchise. A player wants to know from the community if the ARPG excites other older individuals and receives very clear feedback.
This is what it means to be an “old gamer” in Diablo 4: Diablo 4 is regarded as the optimal game for fathers who have little time – the so-called “gamer dads”. Log in, slay a few demons, collect loot, and all without much pressure.
Accordingly, many older players gather on Reddit and share their experiences there. One player mentions that his 71-year-old father plays Diablo 4 and asks if there are other fans in that age who are exploring the ARPG.

“These old people live my retirement dream”
In the comments under the Reddit post, many older gamers speak up who also enjoy playing Diablo 4. Apparently, the ARPG is just right for many “gamer dads” and even “gamer granddads”.
That’s why there are so many “old gamers” in Diablo 4: The Diablo franchise has been a pillar of gaming since 1996 and is one of the most well-known game series. Diablo, as a rather brutal game, already targeted a more adult audience at that time, but has shaped how loot works in games.
In a comment, UASdude explains: “One must not forget that the first Diablo was released in 1996 – at that time, these 70-year-olds were in their 40s and 60-year-olds were in their 30s. So it’s not surprising that older OG gamers are still fully engaged.”
Many also regularly play with their families, like DerfyMcDerfDerf: “I am 58. I have 250+ hours. I only started at the beginning of summer. My son (28) and I jump in every day during lunch break. I’m just disappointed that I didn’t start earlier.”
Others are genuinely looking forward to their own retirement as gamers. DOthePOLKA writes: “These old people live my retirement dream. My wife constantly says she worries about what I will do when I no longer work. I am not worried at all.”
Particularly a certain endgame content in Diablo 4 fits perfectly for busy gamer dads who want to slay for a few hours in between. It is a paradise for farming, including the “exploration feeling”, as you can play at your own pace and relax.

Without warning, 2K and Gearbox gave away the first bounty pack for Borderlands 4 on November 20. What should have cost money, either individually or as part of a bundle, is now free for everyone. To ensure no one feels cheated, more content will follow in the future.
What is this DLC?
The “Bounty” or bounty packs are DLCs for Borderlands 4 that tell additional stories and allow players to secure new rewards.
They are primarily aimed at players in the early and mid-game, where the rewards are likely to be most useful, but they offer content for all players.
Normally, the bounty packs cost money, available individually, as a bundle, or as part of the Deluxe Edition. On November 20, Borderlands 4 released Bounty Pack 1 “How Rush Saved Mercenary Day” for free for all players on PC, PS5, and Xbox.
What’s included in Bounty Pack 1: With this DLC, you can tackle a series of new missions alongside the Outbounder leader Rush. The DLC has a Christmas theme with gifts and such.
On your map, you will find a new quest in each major hub where you can interact with a gift to start the small mission chain. The bounty pack comes with a new Vault Card and the following rewards:
A total of 24 cosmetics, including vault hunter skins, heads, vehicle skins, and more
4 weapons that you can farm repeatedly to roll them perfectly for your build
The DLC will be released on November 20, 2025, along with an update for all that includes some adjustments to missions and loot. You can find the patch notes on Steam.
To prevent anyone from being upset about having paid for a DLC that is now free for everyone, there is also more news.

Along with the announcement of the free 1st DLC, publisher 2K announced that Borderlands 4 will receive a fifth bounty pack – at no additional cost for purchasers of the bounty pack bundle or any of the deluxe editions.
This keeps four paid DLCs as part of the bundle, and there is only one DLC free for everyone. We don’t yet know when the additional bounty packs will be released. However, there is already some information about the DLC content in the roadmap for Borderlands 4.
Additionally, the first “Invincible” boss is currently in development with more health points, deadly attacks, and new modifiers. The bosses are meant to present the toughest challenge but reward you with legendary loot.
In 2026, the return of Takedowns as a free update is also planned. Takedowns were already a popular content in Borderlands 3, where you must survive a gauntlet of enemy hordes and defeat a strong boss at the end. More information will follow later. However, you can expect a challenge: New takedown in Borderlands 3 leaves players desperate: “Immune, immune, immune”

In Where Winds Meet, you not only take damage from attacks but also from various environmental factors. Healing costs gold, which is why players simply meet in an “online clinic.”
What kind of clinic is this? In single-player mode, you will find an NPC healer in Qinghe called the “Clinic of Eternal Care.” She takes care of your fractures, illnesses, and stings, but for a proud 10,000 coins. And even though you can quickly gather this money while exploring and questing, this amount can easily be saved.
A player shows on X what it looks like in online mode, and for many, this is an absolute game changer. Not only do you save coins, but you can also practice your healer profession and earn rewards.
Start video
Schnelle Gründe, warum ihr Where Winds Meet zocken solltet
Both sides benefit from healing in online mode
If you’ve caught an illness, been stung by bees, or suffered fractures, you can specifically search for healers in the menu. Simply click on the illness icon next to the minimap. There you will find a description of your ailment and can choose whether to look for a player healer or travel to the NPC healer.
How does healing between players work? To be healed by other players, switch to online mode in the menu (via the mode switch icon at the top) and travel to the “Clinic of Eternal Care” west of Qinghe at the same waypoint. It’s usually crowded with players, and among them are numerous healers who are happy to patch you up again.
And both sides benefit from a successful healing: The injured player is free from their suffering, and the healer receives a small reward. Healers also set in advance what they want for it, such as 500 coins, a few likes, or a specific emote in response.
In the clip on X, you get an impression of what it looks like:

How do you become a healer? In Where Winds Meet, you receive a quest that requires you to go to the “City of Mercy” in Qinghe. Additionally, you must be at least level 13. There, the quest begins that unlocks the healer profession. In the open world of the action RPG, you will also encounter NPCs that you can heal. However, you cannot heal yourself.
For each treatment, you need healer experience, as you will face a small mini-game. You and the patient each have “life points.” Using cards, you attack the ailment or create shields and bonuses. The goal is to bring the life points of the illness to 0 before your own points run out. As you gain more experience, you can later skip the mini-game and perform a quick healing directly.
In Where Winds Meet, there are also sects that focus on specific play styles, interests, and professions. The Silver Needle sect, for example, specializes in healing. Members of the Silver Needle sect receive rewards for healing, but also small penalties if they do not fulfill their duties. You can learn more about the sects here: All sects in Where Winds Meet at a glance – Which “class” suits you?

Many RPG fans are still playing Skyrim today because hardly any game can replicate the fascination of the hit. A new fantasy RPG on Steam could hit the mark for fans.
What game is it about? In August 2025, THQ Nordic announced the fantasy RPG Fatekeeper. The game is being developed by a tiny team of 10 developers. As in a Dark Souls, you find yourself in a dark fantasy world that has been destroyed by a past catastrophe.
The game is intended to offer you not only a story but also an explorable world with various forests, caves, and secrets.
The gameplay in Fatekeeper, like in Skyrim, takes place from a first-person perspective. With various weapons and pieces of equipment, you will venture into battle, and there is also supposed to be magic. In a new gameplay reveal, THQ Nordic showed what that is supposed to look like.

New RPG for Steam shows atmosphere like in Elder Scrolls
Pretty and modern graphics and a hefty combat
What can be seen in the trailer? In the nearly 8-minute trailer, you can see how a character examines a ruin (previously, he talks to a talking rat). The world in the trailer looks quite beautiful, with plants and vines crawling over the walls, and nice lighting effects. Especially compared to the 14-year-old Skyrim, the game looks more modern.
A significant focus in this gameplay trailer is, of course, combat. Various opponents face the character. The sword strikes of the character have a certain heft, and enemies are thrown aside. Compared to Skyrim, it looks significantly more explicit and brutal. Additionally, you can see a parry function and a quick dash to evade attacks.
In a later section of the video, a powerful enemy with a heavy hammer is shown. The played character uses poison to soak his blade in it. With a levitation spell, he grabs a barrel in the trailer and throws it in the enemy’s face.
Looting and leveling up cannot be missed in an action RPG, and the menu also features a point for spells and the skill tree. You can watch the entire trailer on the YouTube channel of THQ Nordic.
How does the community react? The first voices under the THQ Nordic trailer seem to be pretty enthusiastic. The user @ShakeyOS already knows: I can already say that this game will take many hours of my life.
@RednekGamurz feels reminded of an old RPG classic: This looks really good. It reminds me a lot of Dark Messiah (especially the moment when he pushes the archer off the edge). I will definitely keep an eye on this.
Another commentator praises the atmosphere and the short voice acting that can already be heard in the trailer.
When is the game supposed to be released? So far, there is no specific release date. It is only known that Fatekeeper is initially set to release only for PC. However, you can already add the game to your wishlist on Steam. If you can also find something in Chinese themes, there is a new free open-world RPG for you: Where Winds Meet is actually too big and good to be free, you have never played such an open-world RPG

Have you ever wondered why Orcs in anime often look like fat pigs, even though you know them as muscle-bound green skins? Or why they are spelled with “k” in Warhammer 40,000, but almost everywhere else with “c”? In different worlds, Orcs – or Orks – look different and have their own interpretations. MeinMMO presents to you 5 of them.
[toc]
Like hardly any other race, Orcs in fantasy (and even science fiction) are frequently represented, but they almost never look the same. Whether as a playable character or as an opponent, the representations differ in almost every medium.
Much earlier, however, there were already descriptions of Orcs that looked quite different: small, brown, and reminiscent of what you would probably describe today as goblins or kobolds.
To take you a little deeper into the diversity of Orks and Orcs, we present to you here different types of the race that shares the name but not much else.
Orc or Ork? By default, the creatures are spelled “Orcs” in English, but “Orks” in German. We have chosen the English spelling here to avoid confusion with the Warhammer Orks.

Tolkien’s Orcs, the oldest modern representation of the monsters
In the book “The Hobbit” published in 1937, Orcs appear for the first time in many years and are considered the origin of many subsequent representations. Unlike in later media, Orcs are significantly smaller than what you know today.
J.R.R. Tolkien invented different types of Orcs. The most common ones, and those you are likely most familiar with from the “Lord of the Rings” cosmos, are probably the Moria and Mordor Orcs:
Small, sadistic, and hate-filled creatures, often with brown, black, or gray skin, little hair, and often slightly deformed appearances. Most of them are about the size of hobbits and brutal, but neither courageous nor particularly strong warriors. They mainly served as cannon fodder for the armies of the Dark Lord Sauron. However, in Tolkien’s stories, there are other types of Orcs:
Uruk-Hai are the “evolution” of the species, driven by Saruman. They are an artificial crossbreed of human and Orc and are considered the strongest of their kind.
Half-Orcs are, unlike Uruk-Hai, a “natural” mixture of evil humans and Orcs. Unlike their cousins, they are not a “perfect” breeding. They are said to have originated during Morgoth’s time, the original Dark Lord.
Hobgoblins are described as “larger” Orcs, although it is unclear whether they represent a separate subspecies or simply a general term.
Even though most of Tolkien’s Orcs are rather expendable soldiers, there are several warriors among them who are formidable opponents and instill fear among their enemies. We have listed the strongest of them for you here: The 5 strongest Orcs from Lord of the Rings in the power ranking

The new owners of Hytale have uploaded a 16-minute gameplay video that showcases the current state of the MMO, and the hype among players is back immediately.
What kind of video is this? The new owners of Hytale have only recently acquired the Minecraft MMO from Riot, but they don’t want to make players wait long. They have released a new gameplay video that precisely shows what Hytale looks like in 2025 over the course of 16 minutes.
The video mainly shows exploration of the world with its diverse locations and dungeons. There are frequent combat scenes where the player character faces different enemies. During these encounters, the character uses various weapons, each with different skills to take down the opponents.

New hype around Hytale
How is the video received? Within a day, the 16-minute video reached over 900,000 views on YouTube, demonstrating that the hype around Hytale has returned. Just like the saying “Dead men tell no tales” suggests, many viewers are celebrating the resurgence of the game and the gameplay video. They comment:
@kweebec: “This is the moment we’ve been waiting for seven years.”
@Utkuilguz: “‘Do you want to play Skyrim, Zelda, or Minecraft?’ — ‘Give me all three.'”
@Kuulaakk: “It’s funny that Simon has released more content in the last 48 hours than the team has in four years.”
@griz8744: “‘The game is incomplete’ — followed by a cinematic masterpiece.”
@captain.kaboom: “Ironically, Simon’s new plan of ‘release now and add gradually’ is exactly what made Minecraft popular in the first place. Gradual updates over the years instead of a giant launch will exponentially extend the game’s lifespan.”
What’s the status of Hytale? After the development of Hytale was halted by Riot Games and the game was declared dead, the original creator of Hypixel Studios, Simon “Hypixel”, bought the game back.
He clearly states that Hytale is not in a release-ready version. Nevertheless, he wants to release the game in Early Access as soon as possible and, just like the big model Minecraft, take players along throughout the entire development. He believes that only this way can the project succeed.
When Hytale is released, it will be similar to the early days of Minecraft, where new features are continuously added and the game expands. However, it will take a long time until a full release in a genuine, finished version.
The user mentioned that he has collected over 600 rubber ducks and presented them with a screenshot showing a variety of 15-stack piles of the artificial animals. However, it could also be seen that only the nine ducks mentioned were visible on the shelf behind him.

This is how the developers reacted: On November 20, the developers released Update 1.3.0 and shared the related patch notes on the ARC Raiders website. These contain a sentence promising a change to the storage of rubber ducks. Loosely translated, it says:
“Your Raider hideout has been ‘duck-ified’.”
Attached is an image showing a hideout filled with countless rubber ducks – everywhere, on the floor, the bed, on shelves. The developers seem to have responded to the player’s request and expanded the visual representation of ducks, so you should now be able to see more ducks than just before.
How many ducks will be displayed exactly is still unclear. However, a player shared an image on Reddit shortly after the update, proving that it is at least more than 9 – although it is not all 60 ducks that he has in his storage. Therefore, the player with his 600 rubber buddies should still not be entirely satisfied.
