In recent weeks, the developers of Pokémon GO have faced harsh criticism repeatedly. We at MeinMMO have therefore asked them for a statement and show you how Niantic is dealing with this backlash.
What issue is there with Pokémon GO? For weeks now, Pokémon GO has been under criticism from trainers. The reason for this is the numerous changes in the game, some of which were made without further announcements.
But how do the developers stand on the players’ reactions and their changes? We wanted to know more from MeinMMO and asked Niantic.
“We strive to provide all players with the best gaming experience”
What did we want to know? In our inquiry to Niantic, we primarily addressed the topics that are repeatedly criticized in the reddit community and other social networks. We particularly focused on the changes to the boxes and the associated lack of communication.
But we also addressed other issues in the game, such as missing event stickers or the delayed activation of content, and asked for a corresponding statement.
What has Niantic responded? Unfortunately, we did not receive precise answers to MeinMMO’s specific questions regarding the (secret) changes to the boxes, around the developer diary, and the broken events.
However, the developers assured us that they strive to share important information with the global community. Due to the numerous good things happening in the game, however, it is necessary to weigh carefully which content is included in the updates.
They continue to be committed to providing all players with the best possible gaming experience. In order to hold the best event launches in the future, the insights gained are an integral part of their active discussion. Specifically, we were told the following:
We will always strive to share important information with our valued community of trainers worldwide. With so many updates and good things happening in and around the game, we naturally have to decide every day what to include in these updates.
We are committed to providing all players, no matter where in the world they are, with the best gaming experience and will continue to take this responsibility very seriously. We take the lessons we’ve learned and actively discuss how best to use the insights for future event launches.
Niantic
Why does the changes cause so much criticism?
Poor Boxes: Looking at footage of the older boxes, such as the adventure box or hyperbox, one quickly realizes that they were primarily geared towards raids and hatching eggs. Players could purchase corresponding items such as incubators or raid passes for relatively few coins.
Especially the remote raid passes are very popular among players, as they allow participation in raids in other regions of the world from afar. However, players now have to pay a lot for such items. Niantic increased the costs for remote raid passes a few months ago and ultimately removed them from the weekly boxes.
Comparison Hyperbox in September 2019 (left) and in September 2022 (right)
Lack of communication: However, the changes to the boxes are not the only reason for the harsh criticism, as the lack of communication from the developers is also a recurring topic. Trainers have been demanding at least transparent communication for a long time.
Finally, Niantic publicly responded to the reactions of the trainers. They reverted the controversial PokéStop changes and assured better communication. However, according to many players, there is hardly any sign of that anymore.
Even the regular updates as part of the so-called “developer diary,” which Niantic introduced as a result of the HearUsNiantic campaign last year and was supposed to provide monthly updates, are becoming increasingly rare.
Whether Niantic will actually take the players’ criticism to heart and make future communication more transparent, and whether the boxes will return, remains to be seen for now. However, if there are new updates on this, you can find out on MeinMMO.
What’s your opinion on Niantic’s statement? Did you wish for more concrete answers from the developers? Or do you think the community’s criticism is unjustified? Let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be released on October 28. In a blog post, the developers have now published further details about the content for the release. While not all details are available yet, we are collecting what we already know about the release content here for you on MeinMMO.
Slowly but surely, it is starting: The release of Modern Warfare 2 is just around the corner. From October 20, the first pre-orders can rock the campaign, before the official release is on October 28.
For many players, the multiplayer mode is the focus. That’s why we are collecting the multiplayer content that you can expect at the launch in the game. With a click, you can go to the information you are looking for:
We don’t know all the details yet and can’t list all the weapons or maps. However, what is already known can be found here. To get you in the mood for the multiplayer mode, CoD has already released a celebrity trailer:

Modern Warfare 2 brings trailer with star power – but ‘Squad Up’ fails with many players
CoD MW2: Release Content – Over 50 weapons
What is already known? There will be over 50 unique weapons at launch, spread across 33 weapon platforms. These platforms will partially replace the traditional system with weapon levels.
You unlock these platforms through your account level and then must play these weapons to unlock further weapons. Up to 6 weapons can be unlocked per platform. They then share some important attachments. Details on the new gunsmith can be found here.
From the beta of MW2, we already know the M4 platform, featuring classics like the M4 or the burst-fire rifle M16, and the Lachmann platform, which includes the MP5.
CoD is already showing how many weapons of each class are in the game:
10 assault rifles
4 battle rifles (single-shot)
7 submachine guns
4 shotguns
6 LMGs
6 DMRs
3 snipers
combat shield
5 pistols
4 launchers
one melee weapon
Many of the weapons will be discovered in the campaign. You can actually play them much earlier than the multiplayer. All the information about the release dates of MW2 can be found here:
What is already known? With CoD MW2, the factions return to Call of Duty. So you will always need to select 2 operators for your matches – depending on which side you are fighting on, you will have a different operator.
7 will be available to you at launch, while 18 can be unlocked through challenges in multiplayer and the campaign.
The two factions at launch are named Specgru and Kortac. Here are the operators of Specgru:
And here are the operators of Kortac:
These are the 23 operators in the game with their own backstory. The remaining 2 operators are the Mil-Sim operators – nameless soldiers who will receive many skins over time that look more generic, such as a police uniform.
The “Oni” operator of Kortac is currently reserved for PlayStation. The operator is part of the digital pre-order of MW2 but is only available for players on PS4 and PS5.
What is already known? Currently, we only know the specific number of modes at launch: 10 modes for the normal maps and 2 modes for the large maps of Ground War. Due to the beta phase, we can already roughly say which modes will be in the game:
Normal modes
Search & Destroy
Team Deathmatch
Free-for-All
Domination
Hardpoint
Third-Person Mode
Knock-Out
Hostage Rescue
Ground War
Ground War (Capture Positions)
Invasion (TDM Rules)
Currently, it is also possible that the modes from the beta could change. However, experience from recent years has shown that the contents of the beta are also directly available in the full game.
For the maps, we can already list some from the beta:
6vs6 maps
Valderas Museum
Breenbergh Hotel
Farm 18
Mercado Las Almas
Ground War maps
Sarrif Bay
Sa’Id
Additionally, it has been confirmed that the map “Marina Bay Grand Prix” will be included at launch. It takes place on a Formula 1 racetrack.
Many maps actually take place in 2 specific areas of the world: In Al Mazrah, the later Warzone map, and in Las Almas, Mexico.
How many 6vs6 maps CoD MW2 delivers at launch cannot be said for sure yet. CoD MW 2019 had the lowest number of release maps to date, launching with only 6 6vs6 maps. Cold War had 8, Vanguard a strong 14.
All already known or leaked maps have been collected for you in the following article:
What is already known? In the co-op mode, CoD MW2 returns to its roots. You will be served a duo mode, and often the players’ tasks in a mission will differ.
As an example, the developers mentioned a mission where one player carries out their mission on the ground while the second player helps with supporting fire from the air.
At launch, 3 missions will be available, with players on the later Warzone map Al Mazrah:
Low Profile
Stealth mission where you gather reconnaissance data
Denied Area
Vehicle mission where you need to destroy something
Defender: Mt. Zaya
Horde mission where more enemies come with each wave
As with the multiplayer mode, more missions for Spec-Ops will be added over time.
As soon as there is new information about the release content, we will update the information. The first content drop will come on November 16, and Season 1 will start. New maps, modes, and weapons will already be added here.
On December 14, the mid-season will start with more content – including the new PvE raids and some legendary maps. Here, the first remakes of old maps could already come into play.
Let us know in the comments which old map you think the developers should bring directly and what else you think of the release content.
The new class in World of Warcraft has become even better. Blizzard has made considerable adjustments to their racial abilities.
The Evokers are a new race-class combo in World of Warcraft, which you can play soon. However, just before the end of the beta, Blizzard has made some changes to this class that make it even cooler. The flying ability of the Evokers has been adjusted again and is now almost as good as dragon riding.
What is the problem? For the Evokers, “dragon riding” is in direct competition with their racial ability “Soar”. This is essentially a watered-down version of dragon riding that can be used anywhere in the world but does not offer as significant advantages as the skill for all players.
This is a problem because especially in the new content – that is, on the Dragon Isles – the “Soar” ability is always significantly worse than dragon riding.
Start video
4 Minutes of Gameplay for Dragon Riding, the new feature in WoW Dragonflight
What has Blizzard changed? At launch, several dragon riding talents will also work for the racial ability of the Evokers. In other words: When you improve your dragon riding, the racial ability of the Evokers also improves simultaneously. The following changes will be made:
The maximum speed of the Evoker racial ability will increase to match the maximum of the dragon riding ability.
Several talents drastically reduce the cooldown of the Evoker racial ability, down to a minimum of one minute.
The winds of the isles will also affect the Evoker racial ability after unlocks.
However, please note that these buffs only work on the Dragon Isles. Outside the isles, in the rest of World of Warcraft, the racial ability retains its old functionality. Since all other characters cannot use dragon riding here anyway, the “weakened” Soar is still a significant advantage.
More about World of Warcraft can be found here on MeinMMO:
Why has Blizzard changed this? The criticism from the WoW community regarding the Evokers’ racial ability was quite loud. It was frequently mentioned in the forums that “Soar” may seem interesting on paper but is hardly used in practice on the Dragon Isles. On the Dragon Isles, dragon riding is significantly faster and more efficient for all players than the Evokers’ racial ability.
It didn’t feel right that this ability was useless particularly in the new areas.
Thus, the Evokers have become significantly more interesting just before launch, and soon you will be able to glide through the skies with them.
Are you looking forward to the Evokers? Or are you still not able to get used to the scaled, new heroes?

This week, the first “Kingsfall” will be bustling in Destiny 2. This title is the award for players who have successfully completed all Kingsfall raid challenges in recent weeks. But the challenges are good for more than just that. Anyone who wants some more top loot should know about them. MeinMMO explains how they work.
Currently, the last challenge in Bungie’s latest legacy raid “Kingsfall” is active. Those who master it have not only a title in sight. In the basic version of the raid, players receive an additional loot chest for completing one of the raid challenges, allowing them to receive double rewards. So, more of the prestigious weapons and armor for everyone.
What is a raid challenge? The so-called challenges in the raids of Destiny 2 are additional tasks that players can tackle in the PvE endgame.
Specifically, the challenges restrict your normal, accustomed play style in a special way. Depending on which challenge is currently active, you have to coordinate differently to master it in the end.
In the raid “Kingsfall”, there are a total of five such encounters – the jumping passages are excluded from the challenges. They rotate weekly, but not in random order.
For the last challenge, you must pass Oryx, the raid boss from Kingsfall.

In FIFA 23 there is a new and extremely useful setting that shows you when your players are offside. We will tell you how to activate the setting and also what the current problem with it is.
The offside rule can be quite annoying. You play a dream pass over 30 meters and your striker is only a few centimeters ahead of the last opposing defender, so the virtual linesman knows no mercy. He raises his flag and you can forget the attack.
However, a new setting in FIFA 23 now helps you prevent such frustrating offside situations.
What is this setting? In FIFA 23, there is a new setting that is probably aimed more at FIFA newcomers: The offside display. When you turn this on, a flag icon appears over your players’ heads as soon as they are offside.
A useful hint that quickly signals to you not to press the pass button.
Here you can see what it looks like in the game:
Here are 2 players offside.
How to activate the handy offside help
Activating the new offside help is quite simple. Here’s how to do it:
Start a game, regardless of the mode.
Press pause.
Go to “Trainer”.
Turn on the “FIFA Trainer”.
Activate “Offside Display” at the bottom.
Go back to the match.
However, the new offside help has a problem: Players have to activate the setting every time they play. Whenever you close FIFA 23, the game does not save the setting. So if you want to play with the offside display, you always have to remember to pause the game and adjust the settings again.
In the Subreddit for FIFA, however, some players claim that saving the offside display in the main menu of FIFA 23 helps. Others, however, advise against it, as the game does not save the setting there either. Please let us know in the comments what works for you.

In World of Warcraft, there are many players who have made it their mission to collect as many mounts or transmogs as possible. However, acquiring particularly rare mounts requires a lot of patience and perseverance. One player tried for 12 years without success, to obtain a certain mount in WoW – but he finally succeeded, though in WotLK Classic.
Which mount is it? The “Reins of the Headless Horseman” (via wowhead) is a particularly rare mount that you can obtain in both modern WoW and WoW Classic. However, there is a major catch.
The mount is only available for a few days each year during the Hallow’s End event – the in-game Halloween event. Additionally, the mount has an extremely low drop chance of only 0.25-0.3 percent.
Why is it the “wrong” game? A player has now had bad luck with luck, as after 12 years of farming, he finally got his desired mount (via reddit). Unfortunately, it was in WoW Classic. The collection there does not transfer to “Retail” WoW.
On reddit, the community congratulates the lucky mount owner, with many praising his perseverance. Other players report that they have themselves tried over 2,000 times to get the mount.
How do you get the mount in WotLK Classic? If you want to defeat the Headless Horseman in WotLK, you must go to the graveyard of the Scarlet Monastery in Tirisfal, which is haunted by ghosts. During Hallow’s End, you will find a jack-o’-lantern there. This holds a quest for you that allows you to summon the Headless Horseman. The boss himself is not particularly difficult and can be easily defeated by groups with little gear.
However, you should note that you can only summon this boss once per character per day. This means that you have a maximum of 5 chances for the rare drop per character. Make sure that none of your group members have already completed the quest.
How do you get the mount in modern WoW? To defeat the Headless Horseman in modern WoW, you must first sign up for the event in the group finder. Once a group has been found for you, you will be directly transported to the dungeon. The fight against the Headless Horseman is largely identical to the version in WoW Classic and presents hardly any challenge in modern WoW as well.
Per character, you can participate in this event once a day. However, in modern WoW, you have a significant advantage: Your mounts are bound to your account. Therefore, it doesn’t matter on which of your characters you complete the event. If you complete the event with multiple characters, you also have multiple chances to get the mount.
Here you can find all the details about the event in WoW:
Have you already caught the Headless Horseman’s horse? Or do you find yourself going to the Scarlet Monastery daily until Hallow’s End is over? Feel free to let us know in the comments!
The Hallow’s End and other events are popular activities for players who have reached the maximum level to get some variety. Here you can find more tips:
On October 15, 2022, Eric “Ferret” Baudoin, the lead designer of Fallout 76 and many other games, passed away. Every RPG fan probably knows at least one of his quests. Fans mourn the loss, seeing a piece of their childhood fade with him.
Who is the lead designer? Ferret Baudoin, whose real name is actually Eric, had been employed at Bethesda as a senior designer since 2012. There, he recently worked as the lead designer for Fallout 76 and on the upcoming Starfield.
Baudoin had previously worked at BioWare, Obsidian, Black Isle Studios, and Cyberlore. Some of his most notable works include story and quest designs for:
Many players grew up with games like Dragon Age. His former colleagues also mourn him. From the former project lead of Fallout 76, Jeff Gardiner, it’s said on Twitter:
I am heartbroken. Ferret Baudoin took on the role of lead designer for Fallout 76 with Wastelanders. An eternal optimist and a good friend. We had lunch together multiple times since I left Bethesda. He will be greatly missed.
Jeff Gardiner, former project lead
Baudoin was the only person Gardiner knew who had played more role-playing games than he himself.
Kenneth Vigue, with whom Baudoin worked on the charity organization “Fallout For Hope,” shared on reddit that Baudoin died due to complications from a cancer surgery. His death came unexpectedly.
Baudoin’s death led to a fundraiser for his survivors. Through BuyMeACoffee, fans can donate money to enable the deceased designer’s children to attend college. Those who are not comfortable with direct donations but still wish to help can also, according to Vigue, donate in Baudoin’s name to the American Cancer Society.
Vigue and Fallout For Hope are currently planning a tribute video for Baudoin, organizing memorials in Fallout 76, and want to hold an obituary at the cosplay event for the 25th anniversary of Fallout on October 22.

In the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, the annual Witchfest event is coming up. It starts on October 20, 2022. MyMMO reveals all the details about this year’s Witchfest and how to get your rewards.
When is the Witchfest event? It starts on October 20, 2022, at 4:00 PM CEST and runs until Tuesday, November 2, at 3:00 PM CET. So, remember the time change!
What is the Witchfest? It’s a Halloween event in ESO. It is one of the events that also has a 100% experience bonus. So, if you have any unfinished characters, you should take advantage of the last days. The experience bonus can also be combined with potions and scrolls.
First, you need to purchase the Crowcaller in the Crown Store. This item can be found in the “Holiday” category or in the showcase. Once you use it, you unlock the quest “Trade of the Witchmother.” After you complete this quest, you will receive a memento: the Witchmother’s Pipe.
If you completed the quest last year, you can simply reuse your memento. You do not have to repeat the quest. It’s best to place the memento in your quick access during the event. You can access it through your inventory (I) by clicking on the quick access icon.
There you can now add some items that you can use directly with a key (default setting: Q).
When you use your memento, you will receive a 100% experience bonus for 2 hours. Additionally, the Witchmother’s Cauldron will appear. When you use this, you transform into a spooky skeleton. If you do not like this appearance, you can of course deactivate it right away.
How do I deactivate the Witchfest transformation?
Open your character menu (C) and scroll down to the bottom. There you will see the effects affecting you. If you click on the transformation effect, it will disappear.
These rewards are available at the Witchfest
Besides the experience bonus, you will also receive loot skulls. These are rewards from leaders. It doesn’t matter which leader. There is loot:
Vault bosses
Bosses of a public dungeon
Dungeon bosses
Bosses in trials
World bosses
You can recognize the leaders / bosses by the skull symbol marked on your map. With these add-ons, you can also make bosses visible on the map that you wouldn’t otherwise see:
To maximize your rewards, you need to collect as many loot skulls as possible. You need to defeat as many bosses as you can. Once per day, you can get up to 7 golden loot skulls.
You earn these 7 golden skulls by defeating each of the following bosses:
Last boss of an arena (Maelstrom, Vateshran, Dragonstar arena, and Blackrose Prison)
One boss from anchors, geysers, and storm events or dragons
A vault boss
The final boss of a dungeon
Boss in a public dungeon, in the Imperial City, or a quest boss
Last boss of a trial
A world boss
With the first golden loot skull, you will also receive the event tickets for that day. If you still need event tickets to exchange for a specific item at the event ticket merchant, you can also purchase more event tickets in the Crown Store (250 crowns each).
However, be aware that you can only hold 12 event tickets at a time. Redeem these first before buying or gathering more. You can earn up to 28 event tickets during the event.
Combine the skull hunt with daily quests
You can easily combine the skull hunt with the daily quests from the following areas:
Rift (base game)
Wrothgar (Orsinium)
Vvardenfell (Morrowind)
Clockwork City
Summerset
Murkmire
Northern Elsweyr (Elsweyr)
Southern Elsweyr (Dragonhold)
Western Skyrim (Greymoor)
Reik (Markarth)
Blackwood
Deadlands
High Isle
Additionally, you can share these daily quests within your group and complete several at once.
Also, the daily dungeon quests for the Undaunted or the Guilds are suitable for this. If you generally have no interest in PvE and prefer to be in PvP, you can also pick up the daily quests there and occasionally beat a boss.
What’s most important is to farm where you enjoy it. Otherwise, it can quickly become monotonous.
Trade items in your community or guild
Of course, you might get some rewards twice. But that’s no problem. You can simply trade with other players. Many others are probably in the same situation.
Check the guild traders
If you really don’t have time to play until the event ends, visit the guild traders. Currently, you can find many of the rewards at low prices.
An additional daily quest awaits you at the Witchfest
As last year, there will be the daily quest “Plucking the Raven.” You will receive the quest from the Witchmother Taerma. You will find her at both Olvive’s Brewery and with the Impresario. To complete the quest, you must find 50 cursed feathers in loot skulls.
The reward for this quest is a Dremora loot skull of the crowborn horror. You have a small chance to find a plentiful chest there. This contains particularly interesting and valuable rewards.
How’s your collecting going during the Witchfest? Have you experienced it before, or is this your first time? Let us know in the comments. To stay updated on all ESO events and not miss anything, check out this article: ESO Event ticker – So you can claim your rewards by the end of 2022.
This post will be continuously updated to keep you informed in the future.

Tibia is one of the classic MMORPGs. This year, the game turns 25 years old. Some players have apparently become exceedingly strong over the long time and have achieved levels in the four-digit range. A nerf is now intended to remedy this.
Which MMORPG is it? The game is Tibia, one of the oldest MMORPGs ever. It comes from the game studio CipSoft and was released in 1997. At the beginning of 2022, the game celebrated its 25th anniversary.
Even though the game is somewhat older, it still has loyal fans today. Apparently, players have been actively playing Tibia for many years, becoming so strong that a nerf is needed to reduce the scaling of the values “damage” and “healing” per level.
Here you see the trailer for an MMORPG that combines Tibia and Ultima Online:
Start video
New old-school MMORPG mixes Tibia and Ultima Online – Lets you manage the entire world
“Many already have characters over level 1000”
What does the nerf of the players look like? The nerf refers to the “damage” and “healing” of a character. The influence of levels on these two values will be reduced.
There is a new scaling regarding how much the values of damage and healing increase when higher levels are reached:
Up to level 500: no change, damage and healing +1 every 5 levels
Levels 501-1100: damage and healing +1 every 6 levels
Levels 1101-1800: damage and healing +1 every 7 levels
Levels 1801-2600: damage and healing +1 every 8 levels
Levels 2601-3500: damage and healing +1 every 9 levels
Above level 3500 it continues with the same logic (steps of 500, 600, 700, etc.)
Why are the players getting nerfed? According to the community manager of Tibia, the speed at which characters level up has accelerated, resulting in: “Many already have characters over level 1000” (via tibia.com).
The problem: Even at these extremely high levels, the character values of “damage” and “healing” continue to increase – every 5 levels by a value of 1.
The previous scaling of the values no longer works this way since players simply have too strong characters too quickly.
Furthermore, the game makers want to shift the focus of Tibia more towards equipment and skills.
This change also applies retroactively. This means: For characters over level 500, the damage and healing will now be lower depending on the current level than before the nerf.
In the end, the community managers of the game studio write: “We know this is a significant step, but it is necessary for the balance of the game, especially since the upcoming ‘Skill Wheel’ will make characters overall stronger than they were before tomorrow’s adjustment” (tibia.com).
What is the ‘Skill Wheel’? The ‘Skill Wheel’ is intended to be added as a new feature in the winter update for the game. A sneak peek from Tibia provides information about it:
This feature will allow the player further specialization of their character based on individual preferences and play style. The character receives points with each level, which can then be used to unlock further advantages.
Among the advantages are small changes, such as an “increase in total hit points”, but also stronger effects like access to a new spell.
What do you think about the player nerf in Tibia? Feel free to write it to us in the comments.
Activision Blizzard, the company behind Call of Duty (CoD) and WoW, has secured the rights to a special patent. The focus is primarily on enhancing user experience. An AI is supposed to be responsible for this. But how exactly is this supposed to work?
Now a patent from Activision Blizzard has been discovered that is supposed to bring a special improvement for players. It is about the soundtrack that you must hear in the game – unless you have already turned off the music beforehand.
If you leave your music on, you can find good headset and headphone recommendations here:
AI is supposed to ensure that every gamer gets to hear individual music
What kind of patent is this? Activision Blizzard has registered a patent. The idea behind it is to create individual soundtracks for players using machine learning. Each player is supposed to end up hearing a soundtrack that is tailored to their individual situation.
What exactly is behind this? Activision Blizzard writes in the patent application about a “Dynamic generation and modulation of music based on game events, player profiles, and/or player reactions.”
This means: If you are fighting against a specific boss or are under intense pressure from the game, the AI can react to this and play you the appropriate music. In this way, it can emphasize your feelings or intensify emotions.
According to the patent, the software is supposed to analyze the “mood” of the location where the player is currently located in the game and then generate corresponding music. For gamers who turn off the music right at the beginning of the game, this patent may become less relevant. For all others, however, it means being able to immerse themselves even deeper into the game. In technical terms, this is called “immersion.”
When this AI technology will come is currently unknown
When is this technology supposed to come to the games? Since this is currently only a patent, it may take some time for its implementation. Manufacturers often register patents and then “take their time” with the implementation.
Other interesting patents: Not all patents excite gamers. For example, Sony introduced a patent that caused a lot of excitement. Here, the option was presented for viewers to determine who should participate in a match and who should be kicked:
The streamer erobb221 was just banned from Twitch for a month. Actually, his ban was supposed to be permanent. But now he is more successful than ever. The brother of LoL streamer Tyler1 gets a contract with Team SoloMid. TSM is the largest e-sports team in the USA for League of Legends.
Who is erobb221?
The 26-year-old is a Twitch streamer with about 414,000 followers. He has nearly 4,000 viewers on average.
He mostly hangs out in Just Chatting, but also plays games like Elden Ring or Minecraft.
Erobb221 is the younger brother of Tyler1, one of the biggest streamers on Twitch, who plays League of Legends around the clock. Tyler1 is known for portraying a character: a macho streamer who believes he is the greatest and only communicates with the outside world while shouting and cursing.

How the Worst Troll from Twitch Became the Face of League of Legends
Twitch streamer threatened to beat someone up at TwitchCon
What was he banned for? Erobb was banned from Twitch on September 8 for a month. This was unfortunate because he was heavily involved in the “Shit Camp” event by QTCinderella and could not participate: anyone who is banned from Twitch cannot take part on Twitch – not even on others’ channels.
The streamer stated: He was banned because he threatened to beat up a viewer at TwitchCon (via twitter). Generally, a threat of violence results in a permanent ban on Twitch, as also noted by the German streamer Flying Uwe.
As was later revealed, Erobb’s Twitch ban was actually supposed to be permanent, but he successfully appealed and reduced his ban to 1 month. The ban expired on October 15.

This is his success now: The e-sports organization TSM signed him on October 17 as a streamer.
In the announcement, TSM makes many references to Tyler1, whom many TSM fans know from LoL:
TSM claims to have signed the “biggest ALPHA” on Twitch, but then does not introduce Erobb, but his brother Tyler1.
Both Tyler1 and Erobb are described as muscular 2-meter-tall men – with steel necks that can stop an ice giant with their bare fists.
When it turns out that TSM is not getting Tyler1 but his brother, Tyler1 reacts with his usual anger. He stands in front of his brother and asks if this twig is supposed to be 2 meters tall.

What is the gag? Tyler1 claims to be 2 meters tall, but is actually only 1.68 m tall. A joke that many chuckled at, especially when photos surfaced showing Tyler1 standing next to a woman who was 1.82 m tall and wearing high heels.

However, Tyler1 claimed: That’s deceptive; of course, he is 2 meters tall. The photo was simply taken from an unflattering angle – besides, he was surely standing in a pit.
His brother erobb is about 1.75m: That both are introduced by TSM as 2-meter alpha males is thus – like much else – meant ironically.
This is an interesting parallel: Apparently, there is a tendency towards “ups and downs” in the family:
For Erobb, a permanent Twitch ban and a contract with an organization were only a month apart
Tyler1 was banned from LoL for years, but has now even become the face of the MOBA – that’s an incredible story as well
How is the announcement received? TSM states: They have signed the “stronger and more attractive brother of Tyler1. That is generally very well received by people. There are many positive comments, even from experts on how to create attention – such as YouTuber Ludwig.
The tweet has already received 1.2 million views and 74,340 likes.
TSM has been in an image and performance crisis for several months now. Such things help a lot.
The latest hero from Overwatch 2, Kiriko, is now playable in competitive mode. What she can do and what you need to be careful of, we reveal here.
It has been nearly two weeks since the launch of Overwatch 2, and the grace period for the newest hero Kiriko has now ended. She has been released from her “fun hell” and can now play with the real heroes – in competitive mode.
How can you play Kiriko? If you want to play Kiriko in competitive mode, you must first unlock her. This has already happened automatically if you owned the original version of Overwatch (1). Alternatively, you need to level up the Battle Pass to level 55, and then you will receive Kiriko for free.
If you haven’t started playing Overwatch 2 yet: Unlocking through the Battle Pass takes about 40-50 hours of gameplay, although it goes a bit faster if you efficiently complete daily and weekly challenges.
Kiriko unlocks at level 55 of the Battle Pass as a free reward.
What can Kiriko do? Kiriko is a support character and thus a healer. Like many heroes, she needs solid targeting skills to be played efficiently. Her healing charms (primary fire) reach the target only if you accurately aim at friendly allies.
However, Kiriko can also deal solid damage. Her kunai do 40 damage on a normal hit and triple that on a headshot – a whopping 120 damage points.
Her Suzu grants nearby allies invincibility for one second and removes all negative effects on the target. The Suzu also has a slight “knockback,” so it can push enemies off a cliff.

Kiriko can teleport to allies, even through walls. This allows her to always escape, attack, and support the hero who needs healing.
As an ultimate ability, she conjures a blue area where allies can move faster and attack and reload significantly quicker. Cooldowns of abilities also drastically recharge in this area, making the ultimate the perfect space to lead the team to victory.
Lastly, like Genji and Hanzo, Kiriko can climb walls and reach places that are inaccessible to other heroes.
This is what the community says: In the Overwatch 2 community, the “ranked release” of Kiriko is already being passionately discussed. Most seem to agree that Kiriko is a very strong character with many cool abilities – but it still takes a lot of practice to really utilize them effectively. As stated in the Overwatch subreddit:
“Her kit is good, but the people playing her are bad. So she’s okay.”
“She is the first hero since Ashe who doesn’t feel broken at launch.”
“Kiriko is a perfect example of ‘can do everything but nothing perfectly.’ She can deal quite respectable healing and damage, but unless you get a lot of kills or your teammates are bad, Kiriko will be outperformed by DPS characters and often outshined by the other healer.”
What is your opinion on Kiriko? Are you already dominating the battlefield with the healer? Or is the character more of a disappointment?

Wyrmwood is known among gamers for its high-quality furniture, and the prices are correspondingly high. The latest model is a modular gaming table for 3000 euros.
Furniture has now become part of a gamer’s workspace. Besides chairs and adequate lighting, tables are also essential. Well-known companies like Ikea are developing furniture for gamers.
Now, the company Wyrmwood has presented a new gaming table. For that, you have to pay at least 3000 euros.
What kind of table is it? The model is called Modular Gaming Table and was successfully funded on Kickstarter back then with nearly 9 million US dollars.
Since Tuesday, October 18, 2022, you can order the table on Kickstarter. The device actually costs “only” 1,750 euros, but you have to “buy” into the waiting line. To be part of the first wave of furniture, you must be willing to pay 3000 euros.
The high price does not seem to deter gamers from supporting or buying. As of now (October 19), the table has 736 backers. The table is scheduled to be shipped from May 2023.
What can the gaming table do? The Modular Desk is available in Standard (152.4 x 76.2 cm) and XL (198.12″ x 91.44 cm”) sizes, both in fixed height and as a motorized sit-stand desk with built-in memory, which can store three different heights. Additionally, the accessories include
a robust cable management solution
customizable storage options
magnetic attachments for cups, mugs, headphones, and game controllers.
Moreover, there are several options for mounts for microphones and lighting.
Why is it so expensive? Co-founder Ed Maranville explains in a conversation with Polygon that there are various reasons for the high price: You have to pay around 200 employees’ salaries and the whole thing is therefore sustainable.
Other companies try to solve gamers’ problems with a cheaper product. For example, a model from another company costs “only” 400 euros:
In the dispute over the new Bayonetta 3, new information has come to light. Allegedly, the former voice actress Hellena Taylor was offered $15,000. However, she supposedly demanded more, it is said.
This is the situation:
Hellena Taylor has been the voice of the famous witch Bayonetta in the namesake game series by Platinum Games.
As a report from Bloomberg now explains, the payment was actually over 3 times greater. At least $15,000 was allegedly offered to Taylor. More than she had earned from the game so far.
Where does the info come from? Journalist and industry insider Jason Schreier received information about the deal from alleged employees of Platinum Games. The employees are said to have had insight into the negotiations.
According to them, Taylor was offered not $4,000, but between $3,000 and $4,000 for each of 5 recording sessions. Her total pay would thus range from $15,000 to $20,000.
The employees wish to remain anonymous as they claim to not be authorized to speak about the deal.

The negotiations are said to have stalled when Taylor demanded a six-figure sum along with royalties as payment. Bayonetta creators Platinum Games then reached out to the new voice actress Jennifer Hale, who ultimately accepted.
Taylor commented to the news portal VideoGameChronicle in private messages. It was stated there that claims she was offered more than $4,000 are “categorically false” and the offer of $15,000 is “a complete lie and an absolute joke.”
Taylor wants to now leave “the whole damn franchise” behind and maintains that she has spoken the truth in her videos.
The Vice President of Platinum Games, Hideki Kamiya, states that he finds the attitude of untruth “sad and regrettable” (via IGN). The new voice of Bayonetta, Jennifer Hale, does not comment directly on the issue due to her confidentiality agreement but says that her reputation speaks for itself. Hale is known as the voice of Ashe in Overwatch, Tanya in Mortal Kombat, and The Red Judge in the new Metal: Hellsinger.
By the way, a similar discussion has already occurred with the popular Borderlands:
Halloween is also starting to spread in GTA Online. And where there are events, there are also gifts and cool actions that gangsters can pursue. This year you have to search for pumpkins in Los Santos. We will show you all the locations on a pumpkin lantern map and what you will get for your efforts.
What are pumpkins in GTA Online? The multiplayer mode of GTA brings in summer, as well as in Halloween and at Christmas often cool events and actions that players can engage in. This year, gangsters from Los Santos can go on another scavenger hunt. Pumpkins have been distributed all over the map for players to collect.
Great daily cash gifts for little effort
What do you get for all pumpkins? For collecting the pumpkins, you will of course be well rewarded. These include:
With 10 collected pumpkins – The horror pumpkin mask + 50,000 GTA dollars as a daily bonus
With all 200 pumpkins – You will receive a special t-shirt with pumpkins on it
Additionally, whenever you pick up a pumpkin lantern, you will either get something sweet or sour. This means you will either receive a cool reward like extra GTA dollars or you will be penalized and be on a drug trip.
This is what a pumpkin looks like in the game while it waits for you
Where are the pumpkins located? You can find the pumpkins distributed all over the “Los Santos” map. We have created for you all the exact locations using the interactive map “gtalens.com“.
These are all the pumpkins in the cityThese are all the pumpkins in the countyThe complete map divided into two maps
However, note that all pumpkins are reset daily. You can only receive 200 random sweet or sour gifts. The important thing is mainly the daily bonus in GTA dollars that you receive when you have caught 10 random pumpkins.
If you want the t-shirt, you should collect all 200 pumpkins in one day; otherwise, your progress will reset with the daily reset. Then you will have to start over.
If you have caught all the pumpkins in one day, you can catch 10 samples daily to receive the daily 50,000 GTA dollars. If you manage to do this until the end of the event, you will have accumulated a nice sum. But be careful, you only have time until the event ends. After that, your advantages and the still available rewards will disappear.
That was all the important information about the pumpkins. What do you think of such events from Rockstar? Do you find them cool and does it make GTA Online fun again? Let us know in the comments!

Are you looking for a strong formation in FIFA 23? Here you will find pro tips for the right lineup.
Finding the right formation in FIFA 23 is not that easy. Depending on your own playstyle, it may make sense to set up more defensive or offensive players, focus on the wings, or dribble through the middle.
Therefore, there isn’t “the one” best formation – you have to see what suits you best.
However, a few tips can make your decision-making easier. We consulted FIFA professional Henning Wilmbusse for guidance.
Henning Wilmbusse at the Grand Final of the VBL – Photo: Hansa Rostock
Henning Wilmbusse has been playing FIFA professionally for “Hansa eFootball” since 2020 after being discovered in a scouting tournament. Last season, he reached the Top 4 of the Virtual Bundesliga with the Rostock team. He also advanced to the Top 16 of the international eChampions League.
Tips for the best formations in FIFA 23
You should keep in mind:The FIFA 23 release was not long ago and strong tactics are still evolving. “In the coming weeks, things will change a bit more. Strong formations may crystallize in the next days and weeks,” Henning explains.
Therefore, the professional recommends players at the start of the season, especially three compact and versatile formations that give you many options. These are the following lineups:
The 4-4-2:
A balanced formation.
A balanced formation that is well-suited for the start of the FIFA season. “You are stable in defense, but also have enough players for attacks in offense,” says Henning.
The 4-2-2-2:
The 4-2-2-2 offers CAMs instead of LM/RM.
This formation aligns with an offensive playstyle. Here you can exert quick build-up and much pressure on the opponent. This is especially useful for players who want to stand high and attack aggressively.
The 4-2-3-1:
The 4-2-3-1 offers many options in the middle.
This formation is recommended by Henning for a more defensive game, allowing you to counter the opponent effectively when necessary. “You stand more compact and only have one striker. This is very good if you want to manage and carry the game over time. There is hardly any way through if you do it well.”
Suggestions for player instructions: Here you should closely examine which playstyle you pursue. For defensive coverage with counterattack opportunities, Henning suggests:
Striker: Strengthen defense, “to stay compact in the back and be able to counter quickly forward,” according to Henning.
CM: Stay back during attacks, cover the middle.
Wingers: Strengthen defense for crosses into the box.
Full-backs: Stay back during attacks.
In Henning’s view, a well-organized defense is currently essential, because: “This year, defending has become more difficult. You have to do more yourself,” says Wilmbusse.
Last year, the auto blocks were weakened, and now the AI in defense intervenes even less than before: “Therefore, it’s even more worthwhile to stand defensively well.”
What about the five-man defense? If you want to make it solid and build a defensive fortress, a five-man defense lineup is also a good option.
Henning has noticed how difficult it is to break through as an opponent: “I’ve noticed that the five-man defense is very strong this year and I’ve played against it many times,” he reports: “There is hardly any way through.”
Which formation do you find to be the strongest in FIFA 23? Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments!
The Nintendo Switch was released in March 2017 and is one of the most popular gaming consoles. MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann had nothing to do with the console for years – until he finally bought it himself and was surprised.
For those who want to game after work, there are plenty of options in 2022:
He grabs a controller and sits down at the PlayStation or Xbox.
Or he opts for the Steam Deck as a mobile alternative.
Alternatively, he stays at the PC and switches from work to gaming.
Another alternative would also be the Nintendo Switch.
Especially the last option, I laughed at for a long time. Because in my eyes, the Switch could never compete with the PC or PS5. At most, I watched my girlfriend catch dozens of pocket monsters in Pokémon: Shield or take care of her plants in a farming simulation. My girlfriend loves her Switch dearly and it is a constant companion in everyday life.
But since I bought the Switch myself, I see the handheld console in a completely different light. I would even call it my purchase of the year in 2022. You can read why in the following article.

The 7 Best Free Multiplayer Games for the Nintendo Switch 2022
The Switch is considered outdated and not very powerful in 2022
What was my issue with the Switch? The Switch has been criticized for a long time. The console is criticized for not having a bright enough screen and the controllers being more suited for children’s hands than for adult gamers.
The competition authority of the United Kingdom, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), referred to the Switch as a “family console” that cannot compete with PlayStation and Xbox.
The biggest criticism from fans and buyers, however, is that the hardware installed in the Switch is already outdated. Many games offer weak performance or run poorly on the Switch.
That’s why there have long been demands for a new version and corresponding rumors about a Nintendo Switch Pro. Many hope that Nintendo will use a better chip from Nvidia in the future and bring all the cool features to the Switch that PC gamers with RTX graphics cards benefit from.
I could generally agree with the criticism. Why should I invest more than 300 euros in outdated technology when a new version will eventually come?
Buying a Switch completely changes my view of the console
In the summer, I then bought the Nintendo Switch OLED for myself. This was mainly due to a really good offer. At around 260 euros for the OLED version of the Switch, I could no longer say no.
My first game on the Switch was actually the Metroidvania “Hollow Knight” and thus not an exclusive Nintendo title. I had already spent some hours on the game on PC. And I was genuinely surprised at how well the game works on the Switch, despite previously complaining about the weak hardware.
My Switch with thumbstick attachments and a hard plastic case.
I jumped and fought my way through the green path, cursed multiple times about the tough trio of the Mantis Lords, eventually reached the beautiful City of Tears, and almost despaired at the Colosseum of Fools. But that was more due to my inability than the handheld. By now, I have spent more time in “Hollow Knight” on the Switch than in all the years before with the PC version.
The Nintendo Switch has achieved something here that even the PlayStation has never managed: I actually leave my computer off after work and sit down on the couch with the Switch.
It’s this “casual” approach that keeps me hooked on this little console, which I had previously completely underestimated. I miss neither current hardware nor high FPS numbers or high-end graphics with ray tracing.
The grips feel a bit too small for me, but they are sufficient for a few hours in the evening.
However, the Switch is not perfect in my eyes, and there are plenty of things that bother me:
I find the grips not haptic perfect and a bit too small for my hands. A colleague then recommended other grips for the Switch. Bluetooth and the online mode of Pokémon Sword do not get along, which is quite annoying, as I then always have to resort to wired headphones.
I have to do without Discord and other tools on the Switch, and only a few games offer a proper voice chat. And that is also severely restricted.
The Nintendo eShop has a terrible performance on the Switch and makes shopping absolutely no fun. The sorting function is also awful; Steam or the PS Store clearly have the edge there.
Not even the Steam Deck could dethrone my Switch
What about the Steam Deck? Since September 2022, I can finally reach for the Steam Deck as well. Compared to the Switch, the device from Valve seems way too big, and especially for somewhat demanding games, the battery drains very quickly. In the MMORPGs I tested on the Steam Deck, the casing also got very hot.
And if I want to connect the Steam Deck to the monitor anyway, I might as well start the PC, where I have significantly more comfort features.
Games like Star Wars: The Old Republic I played on the Steam Deck – I was moderately enthusiastic.
After these experiences, I quickly returned to the Switch. Since then, I have been playing Hollow Knight here again or now also Pokémon Sword. Because everything is so easy on the Nintendo handheld:
On the Switch, the games I want to play run smoothly and stably.
Nintendo’s console does not stutter like the Steam Deck or feel as hot as a hot plate.
When I am on the go, the Switch has a much more comfortable size than the Steam Deck and fits significantly better in my travel luggage.
In fact, there is one game that I ultimately preferred to play on the Steam Deck instead of the Switch or PC, and that is the Pokémon clone Temtem. It is simply less bug-ridden than on the Switch.
Anyone who has grown as fond of their Switch as I have should definitely check out the following tips that have helped me a lot. Especially the tip on how you can unlock multiple save slots in certain games was worth its weight in gold:
The Hallow’s End 2022 has started in World of Warcraft. The hunt for the Headless Horseman has begun – we will tell you how to sign up for the fight and find a group and what loot the Horseman drops.
Once again, the spooky season has arrived in World of Warcraft and with it the event “Hallow’s End”. In addition to plenty of candy, masks for dressing up, and one or two quests, there is also a special fight against a new boss, the Headless Horseman. This one terrorizes the towns of the starting areas and deserves a good thrashing.
We will reveal how to reach this special boss and why you really need a lot of loot luck.
How do you reach the Headless Horseman? To get to the Headless Horseman, simply use the “Dungeon Finder” tool. There you can select “The Headless Horseman” from the drop-down menu. If you sign up as a DPS character, the wait time may take a few minutes; as a tank or healer, you will receive invitations almost immediately.
If your class can tank, it’s worth signing up as a tank here, as the fight is not particularly difficult and can easily be mastered by inexperienced tanks.
You can conveniently reach the boss “Headless Horseman” via the Dungeon Finder.
By the way: At level 60, the fight is quite a joke and can be easily completed even if one or two players don’t participate. The fight shouldn’t last more than 60 seconds, allowing you to quickly join the fight with all characters.
Once inside the dungeon, you only need to walk a few meters until you see a large pumpkin on the left side. Click on it and select the dialogue option so your character summons the Horseman.
You need to defeat the Horseman a total of three times. Each time he drops his head, which you must attack before the Horseman reassembles. After attacking the head for the 3rd time, the boss dies and drops his loot for you.
This pumpkin is hard to miss. It summons the Headless Horseman.
Loot and Rewards from the Headless Horseman at Hallow’s End
What does the Headless Horseman drop? The Headless Horseman can have quite a bit of loot, but the most coveted item is likely “The Reins of the Horseman,” with which you obtain the Headless Horseman’s mount. It can be contained in the “Pumpkin Full of Loot,” which you can receive once per day and character.
The Horse of the Horseman is one of the most popular mounts in the game.
But beware! To have a chance at the mount, you must be at least at the “current content” character level. This means that your character must be at least level 50 to receive the correct reward box with a chance at the mount. If your character is lower, it can receive all other rewards but not the coveted Horseman’s horse.
