The MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online is often praised by its fans for well-designed quests. On reddit, a user shares a quest that particularly moved him and receives a lot of support from the community. Here you will find out what kind of quest it is.
The user SyFyFan93 posts a screenshot on reddit that he presumably took during the quest – with the words “Was not expecting this questline to be as touching as it was”. This means: “I didn’t expect this questline to be as touching as it was.”
And he seems not to be the only one with this view, as the post has received 997 upvotes after 3 days. Other users comment on the post:
“Yeah I was also very touched by the story” – “Ja, ich war auch sehr berührt von der Story”, writes Ilovecrispapples
“This one absolutely broke my heart. I especially really related to alchemy a lot, makes me tear up every time” – “Diese hat mir absolut das Herz gebrochen. Ich konnte mich besonders mit Alchemie identifizieren, es bringt mich jedes Mal zum weinen”, writes Elethia20
“I’d say that Alchemy was the most interesting and captivating character I’ve seen in ESO so far. Absolutely brilliant casting, dialogue and superb voice acting.” – “Ich würde behaupten, dass Alchemie der interessanteste und fesselndste Charakter war, den ich bisher in ESO gesehen habe. Absolut brillantes Casting, Dialog und super Leistung der Synchronsprecher.”, writes DarkRedCape
All these praise from the reddit users made us very curious. What is this quest about and what happens in the quest that makes so many ESO hearts skip a beat? Therefore, we set out to find the quest and check it out ourselves.
Where can you find the quest?
You can find the quest in the small town of Rellenthil. It is located in the center of Auridon. The easiest way to reach it is via the Wayshrine of Russafeld. From the Wayshrine, you can reach the town by moving west.
If you cross a bridge into the town, the quest giver, an Altmer named Rinyde, will be directly on your right.
What happens in the quest? Warning Spoilers
To understand what so many ESO players love about this quest, we set out to try it ourselves and play through the quest. We want to share our experiences with you.
This is, by the way, the questline “House of Masks”. The quest giver first tasks you with finding her brother. You also learn that she seems to disagree with his current lifestyle, that she is worried about him and misses him.
Here’s how it goes on: Click on the respective block to learn more details. But be careful: Spoilers!
Step 1: Perform for Alchemy
We perform in the audition arranged by Rinyde. She gave us magical knives to juggle with. Afterwards, we are asked to speak with Alchemy.
Step 2: Talk to Alchemy
Alchemy asks us if we would like to join the House of Dreams. But we must overcome a challenge. We need to obtain a griffin feather to create a suitable mask for ourselves.
Step 3: Find a griffin feather
To do this, we go to a griffin nest and slay the griffin. Afterwards, we can take the griffin feather.
Step 4: Talk to Alchemy
Alchemy praises us and asks us to put on the mask. Afterwards, we are to meet the other hopefuls.
Step 5: Talk to Rinyde
Rinyde explains to me how I can recognize her brother. She also asks me to read her diary.
Step 6: Read Rinyde’s diary
In her diary, we learn that her brother has distanced himself from her more and more.
Step 7: Talk to Firebird
We need to speak to Firebird. He then invites us to play together.
Step 8: Perform with Firebird
We talk to him and let ourselves get into a cooperative game.
Step 9: Talk to Firebird
Now we can ask our questions.
Step 10: Talk to Cunning
We talk to her and let ourselves get into a cooperative game.
Step 11: Announce Cunning’s performance
We announce her performance and comment on it.
Step 12: Talk to Cunning
Now we can ask our questions.
Step 13: Talk to Feather Moth
We talk to him and let ourselves get into a cooperative game.
Step 14: Follow Feather Moth’s performance
We now have to adjust the drum speed to match Feather Moth’s performance.
Step 15: Talk to Feather Moth
Now we can ask our questions.
Step 16: Talk to Rinyde / Talk to Alchemy
We search for Rinyde again at the place where we last encountered her. But instead of the quest giver, Alchemy is waiting for us there. She seems to have found us out and confronts us, asking if we think we are doing the right thing.
Step 17: Guess Larydel’s identity
Alchemy asks us in turn which of the hopefuls we think is Larydel. She individually questions us about Firebird, Cunning and Feather Moth.
Step 18: Talk to Alchemy
In the end, Alchemy tells us why Larydel does not want to see his sister again. She also shares with us that she would prefer it if we did not participate in the upcoming event.
Step 19: Talk to Rinyde
We relay to her the message from Alchemy and the reason she mentioned for why her brother doesn’t want to see her again. She is shocked and believes it to be a lie. She asks me who I think her brother is. Here you can decide whether to inform her or keep her in the dark. We chose to be honest with her and told her the suspicion that Feather Moth might be her brother. Afterwards, she wants to unmask her brother at the audition. This would inevitably lead to his exclusion and destroy his future among the hopefuls once and for all. She would be forcing him against his true will. This makes us slightly regret our previous decision.
Step 20: Fulfill a goal: – Warn Alchemy / – Lie to Alchemy
Fortunately, we found another option to thwart Rinyde’s plan. Because we have the choice to either lie to Alchemy or warn her. We decide to warn her. She is horrified and tells us that she can at least divert the magic so that someone else would be unmasked. That would be us in this case. We agree to that.
Step 21: Go on stage
We make our way to the stage for the performance of the hopefuls.
Step 22: Wait for your turn
We wait until the performance begins.
Step 23: Juggle
Go to Firebird. Use the enchanted knives with E.
Step 24: Go to your marker
Move to the pedestal where Cunning is standing.
Step 25: Cheer
Cheer there with E.
Step 26: Go to your marker
Move to Feather Moth.
Step 27: Drum
Press E to drum.
Step 28: Wait for the unmasking
During the performance, we will now be unmasked. Our face is revealed and therefore our identity is known. We are banished by the hopefuls.
Step 29: Talk to Alchemy
Alchemy inquires if Rinyde has left the city. We also learn that Alchemy is the sought-after brother Larydel.
Step 30: Talk to Rinyde
We relay to her the last message from her brother.
If you’re more interested in ESO, this might interest you:
Overall, the quest fundamentally deals with the question of identity and also addresses the question of acceptance in this context. At the same time, Larydel’s situation thematizes the problem of having to break with one’s own past in order to truly be oneself. To do this, Larydel must sever his ties to the past and shed this part of his identity.
In the questline, you often have to choose from several options. Quests with this feature often stick in the players’ memories, as they often have to struggle with themselves. This requires the player to take on a certain responsibility, and their own principles are also called into question.
If you haven’t had enough of special quests in ESO yet, are you always looking for an extraordinary quest adventure? Then check out this article, where we report on a super bizarre and secret quest in Stonefalls.

For FIFA 23 next Wednesday the TOTW 3 (Team of the Week) is on the agenda. At MeinMMO you will find out which players could appear in the new Team of the Week. Haaland, Foden and Ben Yedder have good chances.
This is the Team of the Week: Every Wednesday it’s time for a new TOTW in FIFA Ultimate Team. This team includes players who have impressed with strong performances in the past football week. These players then receive enhanced Inform special cards, which are available in packs for one week.
These are TOTW Predictions: The TOTW Predictions are community guesses attempting to anticipate which players might be in the Team of the Week.
They provide a good overview of who could be in the TOTW. Potential Inform players can then be used to earn coins on the transfer market. How that works, you can find out in the trading tips.
However, it is important to note that these are theoretical predictions and not guarantees. The TOTW 3 next Wednesday may look different from what the predictions suggest.
These players from the Bundesliga could be included:
Timo Werner scored 2 goals in Leipzig’s 4:0 victory against VfL Bochum. A performance for which the German national player could earn a spot in the next TOTW.
Kevin Trapp had a strong game in the 2:0 victory against Union Berlin and kept a clean sheet with his saves. An Inform card would therefore definitely be justified.
Jamal Musiala delivered an excellent performance in the match against Bayer Leverkusen, ending with 2 assists and a goal. Whether he gets a spot in the TOTW 3 will be revealed on Wednesday.
Niclas Füllkrug from Werder Bremen had another strong game, contributing 2 goals and an assist to the 5:1 victory against Borussia Mönchengladbach.
What do you think about the predictions for TOTW 3? Which player should definitely be in the new Team of the Week? Let us know in the comments!
If you want to grab 4 really strong packs, we’ll show you how easy it is:
On October 2, the YouTuber Dream finally showed his face. The American became extremely popular through the survival game Minecraft . The video in which he shows his face received over 14 million views and 1.7 million likes within a few hours: Yes, Dream’s face reveal is really a big deal.
Why is Dream so popular? Dream is closely associated with the title Minecraft and has built a large fan base with creative videos. Especially during the Corona pandemic, his popularity exploded:
30.5 million people follow him on YouTube
Whenever he is on Twitch, he immediately achieves record numbers
Dream was involved in a cheating scandal in October 2020: He achieved an incredibly fast speedrun: He was accused that it could not possibly have all been above board. He had too much luck with drops.
But Dream proclaimed his innocence. Mathematically, such a thing is possible. Ultimately, he confessed that he had played on a modified version of Minecraft; he just forgot about it.
What’s with his face? Since Dream has been on air, his face has been hidden behind a mask: He also uses the mask as a trademark, selling merchandise products with it.
Time and again, Dream has hinted at he would show his face. But because Dream is also a terrible troll, one never knew if he meant it seriously.
But yesterday, in the night from Sunday, October 2, to Monday, October 3, it finally happened.
That was the revelation: After a foreplay, in which he actually just wanted to buy time, Dream took off his mask in the new video after about 75 seconds and said:
Hi, it feels so weird to speak into a camera for the first time. Hi, I’m Clay, also known as Dream. You might have heard of me – or maybe not.

Dream says: Some fans went “a bit too far” in their hunt for his face
Why is he showing his face now? After so many years, Dream now wants to meet other influencers in real life. Especially his long-time friend, GeorgeNotFound, who is visiting him from England to the USA. He has known him since he was 11 years old, says Dream.
And when he is with him, he wants to do something with him and meet other content creators.
I want to be a human. I’ve been holed up this whole time – so many wanted to leak my face.
Apparently, Dream was just fed up with the fuss about his face. Some people had “gone a bit too far” in their hunt for his face, he says kindly – he loves his fans, but …
It sounds like Dream has had one too many encounters with a somewhat crazy Minecraft superfan.
Dream.
What are the reactions? They are fantastic – the video has already received 14 million views and 1.7 million likes after 7 hours. On Twitter, there are 50,600 comments, 573,000 likes, and 85,000 retweets.
In League of Legends the Worlds 2022 are currently taking place. The German pro Elias “Upset” Lipp (22) has astonishing stats in KDA after 4 games because he hardly dies: But he has now suffered a bitter defeat: Against the Brazilian underdogs LOUD, his LoL team Fnatic suddenly looked quite old. The draft seemed arrogant, and in the game, they were vulnerable.
These are the good news for Upset: The German ADC Upset has once again achieved outstanding strong stats (via oracleselixir.gg):
Upset has already secured 23 kills and 13 assists in 4 games at the LoL Worlds 2022
He has only died once
His KDA is thus at 36.0 – which is slightly better than that of the midlaner Zeka from DRX, who, while offensively more successful with 29 kills and 22 assists, has already died twice.
Out of 63 players who have participated in the Worlds so far, Upset has the best stats.
This is nothing new for Upset. The 22-year-old plays incredibly disciplined, takes few risks, and has therefore achieved the highest KDA repeatedly over the last 2 years:
Fnatic loses against the Brazilians – They celebrate every good action in the game
This is the bad news for Upset: His team Fnatic has suffered its first defeat, and that against a team from a “small region”.
After easily defeating their actual competitor Evil Geniuses (USA), they surprisingly lost against the Brazilians from LOUD. Fnatic lost clearly, even though Upset managed not to die in the game. Upset withdrew every time things went bad for his team, and that happened often.

Why did they lose? The team composition simply did not work for Fnatic, then came individual mistakes when they fell behind early:
Top laner Wunder chose Fiora, could not do anything against Aatrox and played 0-4-1.
Razork on Sejuani was equally ineffective: 1-6-1. The opposing Maokai (jungler Croc) appeared to be the match-winner for LOUD with 1-2-15.
Support Hylissang could not convince on Braum – The Bulgarian has been criticized for years for playing well but having catastrophic matches repeatedly.
Mid laner Humanoid has a kind of hero complex: He plays high-risk. When it goes well, he looks like a star. But in the match against LOUD, he took too many risks and ultimately put his team behind because he dove into the opponents with Akali during an important team fight and fizzled out ineffectively.
This is how too many fights went: Individual members from Fnatic die before it even starts:

The fans judge that Fnatic’s draft seemed “arrogant”, as if they did not take the opponent seriously.
The casters said: The draft seemed to have mixed 2 different ideas – especially the choice of supporter is criticized: Instead of Braum, Fnatic should have chosen a mobile supporter.
Fans on Twitter even explicitly demand that Hylissang be replaced and that the substitute supporter Rhuckz, who played the first 2 matches without dying, be brought back.

What was special. The Brazilian underdogs played passionately and exuberantly, and they took an early lead. When they succeeded in plays, they shouted out their joy.
The young botlaner from LOUD, “Brance”; even had “Bot Gap” written on his bicep and showed it proudly whenever he succeeded in a play with his Miss Fortune, and these good actions happened more often. The 18-year-old played 8-1-7.

In mid-game, it seemed for a moment that LOUD could still lose control of the game and Fnatic could come back into the match, but further individual mistakes tipped the match.
The combination of Aatrox, Maokai, Miss Fortune, and Amumu seemed very strong – these seem to be the in-demand picks at the moment that allow for a multitude of kills.
At Fnatic, they joke after the defeat. “Okay, who told them that Upset is German?” – a reference that the Brazilians might have avenged for the 7:1 in the 2014 World Cup semifinals.
A special tournament in Overwatch focuses on underrepresented genders. Classic men are not allowed.
Even though the Overwatch League has fallen out of favor in recent years, there are still a number of tournaments where the best players in the world compete. However, Overwatch has committed to becoming significantly more diverse. To give underrepresented genders an opportunity to step into the spotlight themselves, Overwatch 2 is organizing a tournament. The twist: the entire team must consist entirely of “members of underrepresented genders”.
Who can participate? The “Calling All Heroes Challengers Cup” targets a very clear audience as participants. Every team must consist “entirely of members of underrepresented genders”. This may include, among others, transgender individuals, non-binary individuals, and women.
Interested individuals can also register individually and be assigned as a “Free Agent” to a team that is still looking for reinforcements, or they will be assigned to a team that consists entirely of such “Free Agents”.
What is the goal of the initiative? Especially in the Overwatch environment, there are relatively few well-known streamers or individuals belonging to “underrepresented groups”, such as women or people from the LGBTQ+ community. Since Overwatch relies on diversity and inclusion with its characters and their portrayal, this is a considerable discrepancy compared to the more typically male-dominated representation in the Overwatch scene.

Overwatch is heavily male-dominated: Like most eSports scenes, Overwatch is also significantly male-dominated. In recent years, there has been only a single woman in the Overwatch League, Geguri, about whom we have reported several times. She temporarily ended her career in 2020.
Geguri made headlines particularly because another team accused her of using an aim bot. She proved her innocence and filmed her hands during the next matches, after which part of the accusing team’s members left the league.
Accusations that a person is not really playing or cheating frequently arise when a woman wants to participate in the male-dominated eSports scene. Blizzard seems to want to create a space with the tournament that offers a bit more security.
This tournament is not a substitute for the “Path to Pro”; instead, we hope that it serves as an entry point for underrepresented genders to then enter the larger eSports ecosystem of Overwatch and we encourage everyone who meets the requirements to participate in both the Challengers Cup and the “Path to Pro”.
As is often the case with such topics, many comment sections are closed due to insults, misogyny, or transphobia. Prove in our comment section that this is unnecessary by discussing the topic objectively.
What is your opinion on such a tournament? A good way to promote more inclusivity and bring underrepresented genders more into focus? Or complete nonsense that the world doesn’t need?

At the moment, the Worlds 2022 are being held in Mexico City for League of Legends. The Argentine team Isurus had to face one of the best teams in the world, Royal Never Give Up. And the top laner ADD had prepared a pick: Teemo. The arena and the internet went wild.
What a match it was!
The weaker representatives of the major regions and the strongest teams from the weaker regions play a preliminary round at the LoL Worlds 2022: the play-ins. 12 teams start in the play-ins, only the top 4 teams survive this round and then begin at the “real World Championship”. Normally, in the play-ins, almost all teams from the smaller regions are eliminated.
In one of these preliminary matches, 2 unequal teams faced off:
Royal Never Give Up (China) are favorites to win the tournament. With GALA, they have a world-class bot laner. RNG won the MSI tournament this year and proved their international class: In the preliminaries, they have only lost one game so far, against DRX, having won the others.
Isurus, on the other hand, are absolute underdogs from Argentina. They had already lost 2 games before the start of this match.
For RNG, the game was a formality to secure great stats. For the Argentinians, however, it was the biggest match of the year – in 2022, hardly anyone will watch them more than during the duel against RNG.
Why is this so special? In the history of the Worlds, Teemo has now been selected for the 4th time. He is considered an absolute outsider pick for the top lane.
Normally, bulky, assertive champions like Gnar, Aatrox, or Ornn are played there. They can hold their own on the lane and provide their teams with a lot of useful abilities:
Champions like Ornn are great for initiating fights.
Teemo, on the other hand, is actually a champ for solo queue, where he can poison, blind, and slow down opponents. He thrives on staying invisible, setting traps, and surprising enemies. This has earned him a reputation as a nuisance:
Some love Teemo
Others really hate him like the plague

Why did ADD choose Teemo? According to Dotesports, ADD has never played Teemo professionally, but in the days leading up to the match, he won with Teemo in the Champion’s Queue 3 times and achieved great success.
How did it turn out? Teemo’s opponent played Aatrox, arguably the currently strongest champ on the top lane, and Teemo had a rough time: ADD secured a kill with Teemo but died 9 times. The Argentinians went down as expected without a chance.
Users on reddit discuss the game. In the end, RNG had a gold lead of 23,000 gold.
One user says: No team has hit underdog teams as brutally as RNG in the last 2 years.
Another says: The biggest losers are the top laners who lost to Teemo in Champion’s Queue while playing Aatrox.
A third says: ‘Captain Teemo off duty (forever)’
‘The hamster is destroyed’:

What happened next? For Isurus, the Worlds are already over. After the clear defeat against RNG, they also lost to MAD Lions and have no chance to advance from the preliminaries. The saving 4th place that could still lead to a “Best of 5” match is already too far out of reach.
Like some other teams from smaller regions, this is it for the Argentinians, even before the World Championship really started.
RNG is expected to finish the group in second place and will then have to play a best-of-5 against a representative from the other group. Unless something very strange happens, who knows with League of Legends.
Although LoL offers so many champions, many hardly matter to the pros:
In Call of Duty: Warzone, there are allegations that the Twitch streamer Nadia is cheating. The former top player Doug “Censor” Martin announced that he would reveal the truth about the streamer as part of his “cheat clarification”. In doing so, he drew the ire of the community.
This is the situation:
Many in the Call of Duty community believe that the Twitch streamer Nadia Amine is cheating: She is said to be using hacks and other aids. People are almost obsessed with the idea; videos on the topic are reaching millions of views.
Nadia herself says: She is not cheating, she is simply the best player in CoD Warzone. Men only accuse her of cheating because they can’t accept with their fragile ego that a woman is better than them.
Despite these cheating allegations, Nadia continues to be active and pursue her career: She is invited to Activision Blizzard events – unlike DrDisrespect.
So many people are eagerly anticipating someone finally bringing “the truth” about Nadia to light, that a former professional wanted to take advantage of that.
Ex-pro promises: “Reveal the truth about Nadia,” builds hype for video
This was the announcement: The former CoD professional, Doug “Censor” Martin, had a major success in 2011 when he won the MLG National Championship. But that was 11 years ago: Censor is playing for an academy team in 2022 and is a YouTuber.
However, he apparently still considers himself a huge pro in Call of Duty.
Censor announced that he has obtained data proving that some high-ranking players in Call of Duty: Vanguard have cheated. He said he would “hunt” cheaters, but first direct all his attention to Nadia.
With many tweets, he announced that he would be releasing a “truth video” about Nadia on Friday.

Instead of revelation, there’s a lot of hot air and a marriage proposal
This was the bizarre video: On Saturday, October 1st, the 8-minute video “THE TRUTH ABOUT NADIA” was released and it was a bizarre performance (via youtube):
Censor appeared as “Detective Doug” in a trench coat and with sunglasses, on a jet ski and during phone calls
Amid much fanfare, he said he noticed how obsessed people are with proving that Nadia is a cheater:
As someone who has been in the professional scene of Call of Duty for so long and has seen so much, I took a closer look.
After much setup and pre-recorded clips, he finally says after 6:30 minutes:
I said I would show you the truth about Nadia and somehow the internet has turned this into something like, that I was going to prove Nadia’s cheats and that I had clear evidence that she cheats.
I want to clarify this very quickly: My buddy made a program to catch Vanguard cheaters. I have publicly stated this several times: I am not interested in Nadia, I don’t need her. I don’t care about her, I will make an unbiased video. It’s not about fame or money for me.
The video ended with a bizarre segment where Censor travels to the Bermuda Triangle and proposes to Nadia.
How can you say “no” to that?
Why are you deliberately ruining your reputation?
What are the reactions to the video? The reactions in the top comments are overwhelmingly negative. People apparently feel trolled and quite badly at that.
In the top comments, it says:
“That was a big disappointment. I’ll save you all the time: Nothing will be revealed. I had hoped you would stand for the community of all gamers.”
“Doug, you’ve taken it to heart that you are just a joke in the scene. I’m really sad.”
“Too bad, as someone who plays CoD more, I really hoped that Censor is a trustworthy guy. But this is… the exact opposite. Why are you ruining your reputation for no reason? This is so embarrassing.”

What’s the problem with the video? Censor has constantly told in tweets that he is hunting cheaters and would “speak the truth about Nadia”. It is therefore only understandable that the two topics are conflated.
However, he wants to be understood separately:
He hunts cheaters
He speaks the truth about Nadia (that he doesn’t care about her at all, but still wants to marry her)
Even in the video itself, he gives the impression for 6 minutes that there will actually be a revelation, after all, he’s “Detective Doug – the crazy sniffer who can make phone calls in a trench coat”.
Ultimately, he has nothing to contribute on the subject and then blames “the internet” for somehow coming up with the idea that he would now uncover Nadia’s cheating. How could they ever assume that? No, everyone was hoping to watch Censor propose to a complete stranger.
Particularly absurd is the statement that he is not after fame or money – when it seems to be all he cares about.
It seems like Censor is trying to remain relevant after the end of his major professional career while having chosen the “largest prey” to hunt, without anything behind it.

In 2019, Soleil “Ewok” Wheeler (17) gained considerable popularity on Twitch with the colorful Battle Royale Fortnite. For a long time, there was silence around the streamer, but now he’s back. We at MeinMMO will bring you up to date.
Who is Ewok? Behind the name is 17-year-old streamer Soleil Wheeler. At just 13 years old, Ewok made headlines in March 2019 as a Fortnite prodigy and quickly played with the big names.
Under the name “Paradise,” Fortnite launched on September 18th into Chapter 3 of its 4th Season. You can see more in our video.

This is how Ewok’s career began: Ewok began streaming in October 2018, showcasing Epic’s colorful shooter Fortnite. Despite low viewer counts in the single digits, Ewok remained undeterred and streamed between 40 and 90 hours monthly.
This paid off in spring 2019: well-known streamer Timothy “TimTheTatman” Betar noticed Ewok and hosted him. Thousands of viewers flooded Ewok’s channel, many of whom stayed. In March 2019, Ewok already had over 300 average viewers and was discovered by several major streamers.
Ewok even got to play with the then number one on Twitch, Tyler “Ninja” Blevins – and did really well.
What made Ewok so popular? The viewers likely fell in love with Ewok mainly due to his likable personality, his engaging smile, and of course, his Fortnite skills. Additionally, Ewok has a dry sense of humor that resonated with many.
What’s special about Ewok’s streams? Ewok is deaf and uses a sound visualizer in games to orient himself. This made Ewok a true role model for many. At the same time, this fact made his achievements in Fortnite even more impressive.
Even this handicap Ewok takes with humor and is never short of a joke.

What happened next: With his charming personality and Fortnite skills, he was able to retain viewers over the long term and by November 2019 had over 200,000 followers on Twitch, achieving partner status. Then he switched to the Microsoft platform Mixer.
E-sports expert Rod Breslau advised professional teams back then to sign Ewok quickly. That’s exactly what happened: in July 2020, Ewok joined the e-sports organization FaZe Clan, then as its first female member.
Shortly after, in August 2020, Ewok returned to Twitch and reached peaks of up to 30,000 simultaneous viewers – more than ever before.
There were also major changes in his personal life: On October 11, 2020, Ewok came out as transgender and bisexual on the occasion of “National Coming Out Day.” In a TwitLonger post, Ewok announced that he wanted to be addressed with male pronouns and spoke about how much he had struggled with his identity in the past.
What happened next? From November 2020 onward, Ewok’s viewer numbers steadily declined, and Ewok began to stream less. While he was on-air for over 100 hours in December 2020, it was only 46 hours in February 2021.
What was going on? Ewok apparently struggled with mental health issues and wrote several Twitter posts about anxiety and depression. On March 29, he ultimately announced that he wanted to take a break.

After that, Ewok streamed only very occasionally. But then Ewok discovered the hero shooter Apex Legends for himself. Ewok seemed to regain enjoyment in streaming. Unfortunately, viewers were still absent, and Ewok even lost followers.
In November 2021, Ewok left the FaZe Clan, but streamed for over 70 hours. He managed to maintain this in the following month, but soon began streaming less again. From May to July 2022, he was not active on Twitch at all.
On Twitter, Ewok continued to update his fans and shared on September 15, 2022, that there would be a major announcement in the following week. The announcement was reportedly to be related to a contract.

What was this announcement? On September 22, it was revealed that Ewok would be part of the e-sports organization XSet going forward. In the announcement video, Ewok explains that he likes who he is now and has realized whom he represents: Ewok stands for courage and for the future.
What is the current situation? In August, Ewok streamed for 27 hours and reached a peak of over 14,000 simultaneous viewers. However, in September, both the number of hours streamed and the number of viewers decreased again.
It should be noted, however, that Ewok is still in school, so there isn’t always time for streaming (via Twitter).
It remains to be seen how things will continue for the former Fortnite prodigy. His skills, in any case, have not diminished:

In Ewok’s career, there have already been many ups and downs. And even Fortnite, the game that made him famous, seems to have left its big hype behind. Time and again, people in the comments refer to the game as dead. Now Epic has reacted to these comments and resorted to unusual methods.
The former head of Overwatch, Jeff Kaplan, has a final message and warns all players about Overwatch 2. At least, that’s what a YouTuber humorously puts in his mouth.
Overwatch 2 is just about to launch and is dividing the community. Many are excited about the new features and the “relaunch” of the game, while there is also a lot of criticism about the Battle Pass or the unlocking of new heroes. Along with the release, an “old YouTube legend” has reemerged – Dinoflask. He enjoys an extremely good reputation in the Overwatch 2 community and is now delighting fans with a new video.
YouTuber becomes well-known and popular with “reinterpretation” of Jeff Kaplan
Who is Dinoflask? Dinoflask is a YouTuber known for a specific type of video: parodies about Overwatch. Earlier, there were often so-called “Developer Updates,” in which the former Game Director Jeff Kaplan spoke about the game. Dinoflask took these videos, edited them differently, and created a completely different narrative. He puts words in Jeff Kaplan’s mouth that he never actually said in this context and spins his own stories.
Most of it consists of the idea that all changes in the game only happen so that Jeff Kaplan always wins and can squeeze more tears from the players.
Dinoflask’s works are extremely popular for parody videos, often garnering around 500,000 views, sometimes even reaching the million mark.
What can be seen in the video? In the latest video “Overwatch 2 – A New Era,” Dinoflask allows the former head developer Jeff Kaplan to reappear. Aaron Keller (the new head) explains that they have realized that they developed Overwatch 2 with the goal of disappointing players regarding the release of new content. “If you are interested in Overwatch 2, we look forward to […] getting you to pay for new features, maps, and new heroes.”

Then, Jeff Kaplan “hacks” into Aaron Keller’s developer update. Kaplan explains that his time is limited and he must quickly relay important information.
Aaron Keller is actually a robot that Kaplan assembled from a PlayStation, an Xbox, and a PC. In the beginning, Kaplan could still influence the development of Overwatch 2 after his resignation, but now the mech has completely gone out of control and decides unilaterally about the fate of Overwatch 2:
“It is unpredictable what horrors he will bring to the gaming community. It starts with Doomfist becoming a tank, but it ends with Keller being in a tank [Tank] – in front of your house demanding to see your Overwatch 2 preorder.”
In good old Dinoflask fashion, the video is not only a loving parody but also often filled with dark humor. Kaplan explains that he has followed the discussions in the forum about his departure. He has read theories that he was fired for “driving into a group of Mei cosplayers with a car,” that he “did not meet his weekly quota of sexual assaults,” or that he “drank rum in the office and groped himself.” A pitch-black reference to the sexism scandal at Blizzard.
Those who appreciate dark humor will get their fill in Dinoflask’s latest video.
The new Overwatch head reacts: The video has not gone unnoticed by the Overwatch team. The new Game Director, Aaron Keller, has already reacted to the video on Twitter – and apparently takes it with humor. He says:
I could never quite figure out what I was missing, but today I finally feel like a real Game Director of Overwatch 😀 😀 😀

Community reacts enthusiastically: The reactions to the video are overwhelmingly positive and sometimes even very emotional. For many fans, Jeff Kaplan and the Dinoflask parodies are an important part of Overwatch’s identity. In the comments on YouTube and the Overwatch subreddit, it is said:
“This feels more emotional than anything Blizzard could ever have done.”
“God, I know this is a fake, but hearing Jeff Kaplan’s words fills me with so much joy.”
“This really makes me sad. I have spent so much time in Overwatch 1 over the years and have so many good memories. I still remember whenever they released a new ‘Developer Update.’ This feels like the end of an era. Heroes never die.”
“Jeff Kaplan singing ‘My Way’ has done more to remind me of my former love for Overwatch than anything official released in the last 3 years. My respect, Sir.”
What do you think of such parodies and compilations? A brilliant form of art and criticism? Or simply disrespectful and unfunny?

Many were caught off guard by the shutdown of the gaming platform “Google Stadia”. But hardly any player as hard as the YouTuber “ItsColourTV”, as he lives in Rockstar’s fantastic game “Red Dead Redemption 2” practically a second life: He has spent 5,900 hours in Red Dead Online. But this virtual life could abruptly head into the eternal cowboy heaven.
This was the news of the week:
Google wanted to create a competitor to PS5 and Xbox Series X with the Stadia platform that doesn’t require expensive gaming hardware. Players could play on a smart TV or a weak laptop without a console or gaming PC, and didn’t have to download games and patches, but could stream everything.
Google invested a lot of money and resources into the platform, wanting to build studios and release their own titles.
This player is particularly hard hit: The YouTuber “ItsColourTV” has spent 5,907 hours or 246 days with “Red Dead Online”, the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2.
Although Red Dead Online has hardly been developed further by Rockstar, it is a great way for hardcore fans to spend “time outdoors”: Rockstar’s detailed Wild West simulation encourages simply hanging out in the sandbox of the world, enjoying the scenery, and engaging in activities there.
ItsColourTV says he spent time in Red Dead Online primarily with friends, hanging out with them and getting into a lot of mischief.
Many would have wished for DLCs for Red Dead Redemption 2, but it never came to that:

The player emphasizes that on Stadia he even had an outstanding gaming experience.
I think Stadia had the best experience with Red Dead Online because it had dedicated servers. Everyone [on another platform] complained about animal spawns and other server-related issues, but on Stadia you hardly noticed that.

“No, you don’t understand how angry this makes me.”
Player is now afraid of losing everything in Red Dead Redemption 2
What is the problem? Red Dead Online does not have “cross-progression”; progress is tied to Stadia. However, Rockstar currently offers no way to transfer save data from Stadia to another platform.
This is exactly what ItsColourTV is asking the manufacturer for. A single, one-time character transfer from Stadia would save his character: Otherwise, all his progress, all the items he has earned, would be gone in January 2023.
The YouTuber says it is not only about him – many are affected by the closure of Google Stadia, much like him. He not only loses his personal progress but also the connection to the friends he has built over the years.
People write to him:
They have no other platform to play Red Dead Redemption 2, just a “crappy MacBook”.
Another person says he probably has to buy an Xbox, repurchase Red Dead Redemption 2, and then pay a monthly subscription fee.

Will this happen? The story has at least caused quite a stir: The original tweet has now received over 5,000 likes, and many major US sites have picked up the story – maybe Rockstar will eventually relent.
For some players, Red Dead Redemption 2 is the fulfillment of all their dreams:

If you are more active in Ultimate Team than in career mode, we have put together a strong Bundesliga starter squad for you:
And stalwarts like Ultima Online, Tibia or EverQuest have been around for over 20 years.
Some players who commit to an MMORPG play it almost continuously. Others take breaks but keep returning to the games, reactivating their account and continuing to play.
And when you play an MMORPG over a very long time, you also develop a connection to your characters. After all, you invest a hell of a lot of time and effort into them.
Often, special memories are associated with them, such as the first raid with friends or other cool experiences in the game. It’s a shame to just delete them.
Therefore, we want to know from you: Do you still have such characters that are really old but still playable?
How can I vote? You can cast your vote as always in the poll tool below. Please note that everyone only has one vote and the choice cannot be undone.
So try to remember how old your oldest still playable character is at least approximately.
Let us know in the comments which result you voted for. Was it your oldest character at all or did you have others before that are now deleted or permanently offline? What memories do you associate with these characters?
Have fun voting!

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is all the rage. But does the series convince in all respects? Anime demon Cortyn dares to analyze – and has clear criticism.
Just a few years ago, film and series adaptations of video games had a pretty bad reputation – and most of the time they were flops. Since the terrible series of “The Marios Brothers” or “The Legend of Zelda,” the cliché persisted for several decades.
The latest attempt to bring a video game to television screens is the series “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,” and the hype is enormous. Whether it’s discussions about the “best waifu of the season” or memes flooding the internet – Edgerunners has made an impact.
However, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is unfortunately much less than it could have been. At least that’s my view.
About the Author: Cortyn has been writing for MeinMMO since 2013, always with a particular focus on MMORPGs like WoW, but also RPGs like Witcher and Cyberpunk fall under that.
In his spare time, Cortyn inhales “always” anime series like others do a bag of chips and sends his colleagues bizarre manga memes that no one else understands.
The Story of Edgerunners Briefly Outlined
Without wanting to reveal all the details, here’s at least a brief overview of the starting position after the first two episodes:
Cyberpunk Edgerunners takes place a few years before Cyberpunk 2077 and focuses on the story of David Martinez. He is considered highly gifted and has accordingly made it to the academy of the mega-corporation Arasaka. However, the poor conditions of his single mother make his life anything but pleasant – he is bullied and considered an outsider. After the death of his mother, he unexpectedly comes into possession of a powerful implant, the “Sandevistan.” However, it belongs to Arasaka, which urgently wants it back.
David flees from Pursuit and subsequently survives as an Edgerunner. He joins a crew, completes missions for clients, and begins to augment his body with more and more implants.
Here is the Japanese trailer. The series is also available in German or English:
Start video
Cyberpunk Edgerunners: Fans of the RPG epic celebrate the Netflix trailer, but also hope for a cool story
These are also already the two driving points of the plot. The company Arasaka, which tries increasingly hard to capture David in order to exploit his performance with the Sandevistan implant, and on the other side, David, who is making a name for himself as an Edgerunner with his team and fighting against the danger of becoming a “Cyber-Psycho.”
The name “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners” is a deliberate double meaning. These “border crossers” act as mercenaries on the edge of legality. They undertake missions in a gray area of the law that could have consequences, but are often simply neglected. At the same time, they are always on the edge of becoming a “Cyber-Psycho.” To fulfill their role as mercenaries, the Edgerunners equip themselves with more and more implants and upgrades, which gradually tug at their humanity. An addiction to more and more upgrades arises until one day they fall into a frenzy and run amok – only to be shot by the police and military.
Studio Trigger was the Perfect Choice – Because They Can Do “Absurd”
Anyone who is a self-proclaimed (and proud) weeb and knows a little about the anime scene already knows Studio Trigger. The animation studio is still relatively young, has a few Gainax veterans (“Neon Genesis Evangelion”) but has already produced some of the most successful anime of recent years. The extremely absurd “Kill La Kill” is part of their portfolio, but the more colorful “Little Witch Academia” and the Mecha success “Darling in the Franxx” were also created here.
And after they had hormonally challenged teenagers controlling battle robots that for some unexplained reason only work when they are operated by men and women in doggy-style position (you just have to love anime, right?) – the crazy world of Cyberpunk 2077 should be a piece of cake, right?
To answer that directly: Yes.
David has to go through a lot.
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners doesn’t shy away from much. Right from the first episode, the series makes it unmistakably clear what kind of uninhibited world it plays in, where every high has to be even more intense and absurd than the previous one. Again and again, you see men or women connected to devices in the background that apparently have no other purpose than to provide sexual pleasure – in broad daylight. At the same time, others seek their kick by experiencing violent excesses of criminals in cyberspace in a realistic way, becoming a murderous maniac themselves.
The choice of words is accordingly. Almost every second sentence includes some (sometimes quite creative) obscene insult.
Nakedness and sex are around every corner and no one is bothered by it. It wonderfully manages to depict this abandon and the associated loneliness in this world. Everyone acts cool and elevated, but in the end everyone is alone and only thinks of their own advantage. True connection is rare.
Night City in Cyberpunk: Edgerunners feels brutal and dark, and the series makes no concessions to avoid scaring off any target audience. They stayed true to the source material.
Colorless Characters in a Neon World
While Cyberpunk Edgerunners is, with all due love, not perfect. Because where the series relies on strong visuals in a dystopian world and a lot of brutal action, one aspect falls by the wayside: Deep characters and their development.
When I think back to the old works of Studio Trigger, I immediately have my favorite characters in mind. With Little Witch Academia, I immediately think of the sadistic-apathic witch Sucy, about whom I always wanted to know more than was shown in the anime. With Darling in the Franxx, I immediately see Zero-Two before me, who stood out with her conflict of love and crazy murderer and whose character development I loved.
The visual design of all the characters is cool – but unfortunately, that’s often where it ends.
With Edgerunners, that’s missing. With all the main characters, I never had the desire to learn more about them, because they all seem one-dimensional and above all functional. They have their place in the plot because the plot requires such a role. There’s the leader character on the brink of collapse, so the protagonist can somehow get to that position. There exists the careless brother character only so he can die and trigger a heavy reaction from the sister.
This is a problem that almost all characters in Edgerunners share. They do not feel like an organically grown team, but rather like soulless (but at least cool) characters that only serve exactly one purpose in the plot.
Accordingly, many of the deaths that occur in the series feel insignificant – because no character has plot armor. Death often comes, usually very quickly and unexpectedly, but is rarely truly impressive. One connects too little with the characters to truly embrace them.
The only one who stands out positively here is the cyber-lolita Rebecca, who appears endearing in short moments and in others bursts completely insane from one extreme to the next – and will almost certainly be the center of every second suggestive fanfiction.
The cyber-lolita Rebecca is one of the few characters that stick in memory.
The fact that they opted for less profound characters may be due to the comparatively short length of the series or a deliberate design decision. Because somehow, it also fits into the dystopia of Night City that people do not undergo significant emotional changes and character development – because if one needs a “development,” one simply installs the next cyber-implant and hopes that it’s not the final step to becoming a Cyber-Psycho.
Conclusion: Edgerunners is a Worthy Cyberpunk Anime – But Unfortunately Not More
In summary, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is a damn fitting, brutal foray into the world of Night City and also works well if you haven’t played the game. The series never gets boring and races from one action scene to the next. Nevertheless, I was left with an emptiness at the end. Not because the ending was emotionally particularly moving, nor because the anime was already over. Just somehow it feels like after the end, hardly anything is different from the start of the series. As if everything somehow was meaningless.
And that’s why I also think that Cyberpunk: Edgerunners doesn’t need a second season. The series is self-contained, and at least I didn’t feel the desire to want to see more afterwards. It was good while it lasted – but it didn’t evoke the longing for more. Because ultimately, the series lacked what always makes me crave more: Characters whose journeys I want to continue following and about whom I want to learn more.
Edgerunners is a spectacle of effects that flashes brightly and impressively while it runs – and a day later, raises the question of whether instead of an intense fireworks display it could not have created something with a lasting impression.
But that is just my opinion. How did you like Cyberpunk: Edgerunners?

In FIFA 23, the community has discovered how to make some cards significantly faster. We will show you how the trick works and 20 cards that can become much quicker.
This is the new sprint system in FIFA 23: EA has introduced 3 different sprint types for players in FIFA 23 with the AcceleRATE system. There are “Explosive”, “Lengthy”, and “Controlled”, or in German: “Explosiv”, “Anhaltend” und “Kontrolliert”.
Currently, the “Lengthy” type is particularly popular among players, exemplified by Erling Haaland, who is part of the current meta in FIFA 23. This sprint type is designed for larger and heavier players and is characterized by achieving a top speed that is unmatched on long distances.
Here’s how the trick works: On Twitter, the self-proclaimed FUT analyst Nofil Khan has determined how strong and unstoppable the “Lengthy” sprint type is and that it can easily be applied to many cards in Ultimate Team. You just need to use a chemistry style.
However, not every player can become a “Lengthy” sprinter; certain criteria must be met. The player must be at least 1.74 meters tall, have a strength of at least 65, and possess an acceleration value over 50.
And since you can change all values except for height with chemistry styles in FUT, we can easily turn players with the significantly worse “Controlled” sprint into “Lengthy sprinters”.
Here you can see the criteria for the different acceleration categories:
20 cards that can become much quicker
These cards you can make faster: Here are 20 FUT Gold cards that meet all the criteria to become “Lengthy” sprinters. You simply need to apply the corresponding chemistry styles and they will have significantly better sprint behavior.
ST: Benzema (91) with Architect
ST: Lewandowski (91) with Marksman, Anchor, or Architect
ZM: Kroos (88) with Marksman, Anchor, or Architect
IV: Marquinhos (88) with Marksman, Anchor, or Architect
ZM: Goretzka (87) with Sniper, Marksman, Hawk, Architect, Sentinel, Backbone, or Anchor
IV: Alaba (86) with Architect
MS: Depay (85) with Architect
ST: Schick (85) with Architect
LV: Hernandez (85) with Architect
LM: Kostic (85) with Architect
RV: Walker (85) with Sniper, Marksman, Hawk, Architect, Sentinel, Backbone, and Anchor
ST: Immobile (86) with Architect
ZM: Valverde (84) with Architect
RAV: James (84) with Sniper, Marksman, Hawk, Architect, Sentinel, Backbone, and Anchor
IV: Koundé (84) with Marksman, Architect, and Anchor
IV: Eder Militao (84) with Marksman, Architect, and Anchor
IV: Hernandez (84) with Marksman, Architect, and Anchor
LF: Tadic (84) with Marksman, Architect, and Anchor
IV: Tomori (84) with Sniper, Marksman, Hawk, Architect, Sentinel, Backbone, and Anchor
ZDM: Tonali (84) with Architect
Where to get the chemistry styles? You can find these items occasionally in FUT packs or on the transfer market. The current hype around “Lengthy sprinters” is likely to make the Architect style particularly expensive.
What do you think of the trick? Have you tried it yet? Feel free to let us know in the comments!
Diablo 4 wants to put more power back in skills – not just on gear
Why is this important? It seems somewhat strange that half a second in a promo video would spark such a discussion. But people have spent countless hours on Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 and know the games inside out. Everyone has their opinion on what a “perfect loot system” should look like.
For many, it is especially important that they can take multiple paths and implement interesting build ideas. That is why such discussions are exciting for hardcore fans:
If a value, like weapon damage or main stat, is too strong, you only focus on that and ignore all other systems.
If it ultimately doesn’t matter what you play because the skills are so strong, the motivation is also missing.
In an optimal system, there should be no “absolute best thing”, but rather multiple paths should be viable – and the player should decide which path to take.
Blizzard has stated that this is exactly what they want to achieve. They want to shift more power from gear back to characters in Diablo 4, so that skill builds feel more significant – at the same time, item decisions should also feel meaningful.
Although there have already been initial leaks about Diablo 4, we probably won’t know whether Blizzard’s decisions are correct until the beta:
Then you’d just want to have main stat on every item and nobody would use pure defensive items. This would limit build diversity:
If every single item slot in a game is used to boost damage, then don’t be surprised if damage increases exponentially and players only choose what deals the most damage, ignoring everything else.
Reddit user shapoonkya
The user apparently wishes for a Diablo 4 where there is also room for items that enhance defense or provide nice upgrades like faster movement.

Then you’d just want to have main stat on every item and nobody would use pure defensive items. This would limit build diversity:
If every single item slot in a game is used to boost damage, then don’t be surprised if damage increases exponentially and players only choose what deals the most damage, ignoring everything else.

Diablo 4 wants to put more power back in skills – not just on gear
Why is this important? It seems somewhat strange that half a second in a promo video would spark such a discussion. But people have spent countless hours on Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 and know the games inside out. Everyone has their opinion on what a “perfect loot system” should look like.
For many, it is especially important that they can take multiple paths and implement interesting build ideas. That is why such discussions are exciting for hardcore fans:
If a value, like weapon damage or main stat, is too strong, you only focus on that and ignore all other systems.
If it ultimately doesn’t matter what you play because the skills are so strong, the motivation is also missing.
In an optimal system, there should be no “absolute best thing”, but rather multiple paths should be viable – and the player should decide which path to take.

Blizzard has released a new promotional video that was intended to generate some hype for Diablo 4 . Players have nonetheless discovered new information. They are discussing whether a change makes a difference so that Diablo 4 launches with a better item system than Diablo 2 and Diablo 3.
What kind of video is this?
Blizzard has released a promo video for the “Diablo Hell’s Ink Tour Miami”. It runs for 3:22 minutes (via youtube).
However, people on reddit discover new information about the game Diablo 4 in the video, which they are now discussing.
What detail are they discussing? In the promo video, for a tiny moment, perhaps half a second, you can see the information about a skill in Diablo 4, about “Lightning Spear”.
Here, one user notes that the ability adds 15% of weapon DPS as damage per hit.
This leads to a big discussion.
15% weapon damage per hit is the big detail here.
In Diablo 3, weapon damage was too important – in Diablo 2 not important enough
Why is this important? It’s about the question of what criteria a player uses to select an item:
In Diablo 3, skills scaled extremely well with weapon damage: A Barbarian skill like “Earthquake” dealt 4,800% weapon damage to enemies.
This led to weapon damage being extremely important in Diablo 3, and other aspects of the weapon – such as bonus skills or stats – becoming almost irrelevant.
If in Diablo 4 now a skill uses only 15% weapon damage instead of 4,800% weapon damage as the output point for the skill’s damage, weapon DPS is not an overpowering value, but just one of many aspects of a weapon to consider when deciding which new item to use.
The site PCGamesN writes:
A 15% multiplier on Lightning Spear means that a smaller increase in weapon damage is negligible, making other attributes, affixes, and passives on the weapon likely much more important than just the base damage. If all skills in Diablo 4 follow this pattern, it should resolve the main complaint about the skill system in Diablo 3 – the extreme focus on gear stats due to the huge, stackable multipliers.
PCGamesN
What was the criticism of the item systems of earlier Diablo titles?
A major criticism of Diablo 3 is that players primarily wanted a high weapon damage on the weapon, as the raw damage of a weapon becomes extremely important through the many different multipliers.
In Diablo 2, however, the criticism was that items did not play such a big role, and it was even possible to complete the game “naked” with the Sorceress: The skills became overwhelmingly powerful even without gear.
As a player on reddit explains, Blizzard’s new decision with a moderate weapon damage bonus resolves one of the biggest itemization problems of Diablo 3. It is seen as a “good middle ground” between Diablo 2 and Diablo 3.
Another reddit user explains that the big problem in Diablo 3 has always been that it was a “main stat system”. It’s not a problem if a weapon does 1,000 DPS, but it becomes a problem when you add another 10,000 main stat and it works as a 10,000% multiplier.

There was a time when World of Warcraft increasingly focused on the solo experience and also considered how solo players could feel comfortable in group content.
Where there used to be “loot drama” because a ninja-looter rolled need on a popular item even though he didn’t need it, personal loot came into play. Personal loot was significantly fairer and rewarded each player individually – but often harmed the social component and the good feeling of having “won” an item.
With Dragonflight, group looting returns and the rules will even be expanded.
“I rolled Need … need it for my healer alt!”
What will change? In the first raid of Dragonflight, the “Vault of the Incarnates,” group looting will be the only option – it is permanently activated. This means that you will see the dropped items “like back then” and can then roll need or greed to secure the loot. Blizzard has refined the system and made many restrictions and adjustments to keep it fair and efficient for groups.
No one can roll need on an item that they cannot reasonably use. For instance, warriors can never roll need on cloth armor, but priests cannot roll need on a agility staff either.
The system differentiates between “main spec” and “off spec.” Players who use an item for their main specialization always have priority when rolling need.
The general order of priority when rolling is:
Need: Main specialization
Need: Secondary specialization
Greed
You can set your main specialization. For example, if you help out as a healer today as a paladin but are actually retribution, you can still select retribution as your main specialization and thus have priority on retribution items.
You cannot win the same item multiple times. If, for example, a boss drops the same sword twice in the same kill, you can roll on both – but if you win the first item, you will be excluded from the second roll since you already have the item.
You cannot roll need if you are already wearing the exact same item with the exact same item level. However, if the item is in any way an improvement (for example, because it has a socket or a tertiary stat), then you could roll on it.
By the way, the system is also intended to be applied in LFR.
The release of Dragonflight is just around the corner…

WoW: Dragonflight has a release date, coming in November
Can items still be traded? Yes, that is possible. If you win an item, you can trade it with all players who were present during the boss fight and could have legitimately received loot. The previous restrictions that prevented you from trading an item because you do not have another with a higher or the same item level are removed.
Please note that these plans are still based on information and tests from the beta. Blizzard has announced that they want to use the system in Dragonflight, but it is still under discussion.
More about World of Warcraft Dragonflight can be found here:
What does Blizzard hope to achieve? With the change, Blizzard pursues several goals. Firstly, the developers want to make it more transparent who gets loot and why. Because even with “Personal Loot,” players rolled for rewards – that only took place internally in the background.
Moreover, rolling for items is a social interaction that often leads to conversations and amusing situations. At the same time, players have more freedom to trade loot in the raid and adjust it to the needs of the group if they wish.
What do you think of the return of “Group Loot”? Exactly what World of Warcraft needs? Or did you prefer Personal Loot?

Riot Games is continually trying to improve the player experience for the community. New features are added to League of Legendsfrom time to time. Some changes come with special events and remain, while others fail and are quickly forgotten. In 2019, Riot once attempted to introduce a new summoner spell to LoL.
What qualifies as such changes?
At first, Riot Games released a new champion every 2 weeks. However, the frequency has decreased, and they are considering stopping releases altogether.
From time to time, Riot Games revises items in the game, such as the Philosopher’s Stone, the Rod of Ages, and the Nature’s Fury, which was temporarily removed from the game.
Game modes that were online only for a short time during events included Doom Bots of Doom, Urf, Legends of the Poro King, and the Bilgewater event.
Especially during the Bilgewater event, Riot made a significant blunder: they tried to introduce a new summoner spell. What makes this so special is explained here.

Even the best ideas can be poorly implemented
What is the deal with the summoner spell? It is about the spell “Retreat”. This spell was added in version 9.7 in 2019. In the next patch, Riot Games removed the spell from the game.
It is a self-targeting spell that granted you a shield for 2.5 seconds, depending on the champion’s level. Once the time expired, all negative effects were removed from you, and you became invulnerable and untargetable while sprinting a short distance toward your base.
The spell appears to be very strong. Invulnerability and removal of crowd control plus a shield speak for themselves. Thus, abilities like Zed’s ultimate or Vladimir’s could be dodged and ignored. However, the community saw it differently.
What did the community say about it? There were always more convenient alternatives to the Retreat spell with the abilities “Flash” and “Mark/ Sprint”. Although the spell looked strong on paper, it was not very practical in the game, and despite the shield had little impact.
The enforced sprint toward the base was a significant issue. Once the spell was activated, there was no way for you to activate or cancel this spell earlier. This led to special plays being doomed to fail, completely ruining an exciting move.
Riot reacted very promptly to the feedback: After just two weeks, the spell was removed from the game. However, the community had already stopped using the spell well in advance.
Since then, there have been no attempts to add new summoner spells to the game. The current selection of spells seems sufficient to balance utility and fun. For this reason, no new tests for new spells have been conducted. The opinion of the LoL community reflects this as well.

In Pokémon GO your captured monsters are registered in the Pokédex, which is supposed to inform you about the individual Pokémon. However, these entries can sometimes just make you smile. MeinMMO author Franzi Korittke has looked at them and shows you her favorites.
Which entries are we talking about? In Pokémon GO, you can now catch numerous monsters. Each one you have secured or at least discovered somewhere is registered in your Pokédex.
So you will get an overview of which Pokémon are still missing from which region. But that’s not all, because at this stage of your game, you can also learn more about the individual captured monsters.
The texts often contain interesting facts about the respective Pokémon, for example, that the flame on Charmander’s tail indicates its emotional state. But sometimes these are just totally crazy and trigger a funny thought. I have summarized the 10 entries that made me smile directly below.
How was the ranking created? The order of the following ranking is based on my personal rating. Thus, I show you the monsters in ascending order of how much they made me smile. The ranking works its way up to the Pokédex entries that I found the funniest and that sparked the most vivid imagination.
10. Woingenau
Woingenau
When you think about it, the Pokédex entry of Woingenau is probably more questionable than funny, but I still had to chuckle at the thought of several Woingenau standing in a circle, staring at each other for hours without anyone wanting to give up to eat. At least you can’t accuse them of not being consistent.
When two or more Woingenau meet, they try to outlast each other in patience. They want to find out which Pokémon can survive without food the longest. Trainers need to pay attention to this.
Pokédex entry of Woingenau
9. Wonneira
Wonneira
And Wonneira shares a similar pitiable fate, which is also sweet and funny at the same time. It has a fascination for stones, risking its further movement for them.
Its naive nature reminds me of small children on a family outing, who also can’t decide but don’t want to go home without the perfect stone. I find that really cute and the thought puts a little smile on my face.
If it finds white, round stones, it stores them in its bag. Sometimes it carries so many that it can’t walk anymore.
Pokédex entry of Wonneira
8. Floink
Floink
Floink is also a candidate that gets himself into trouble with his clumsy behavior, thereby bringing a smile to some faces.
I imagine the little monster jumping excitedly in front of a nut, directing his flame at it, and then exclaiming “Oops!” because the temperature was too high. Floink should probably practice a bit more patience in the future. Maybe Woingenau can help him with that.
Floink loves to eat roasted nuts. However, it occasionally burns them unintentionally out of sheer eagerness.
Pokédex entry of Floink
7. Pikachu
Pikachu
Pikachu can probably share similar experiences. This Electric-type Pokémon sometimes misjudges its abilities too and instead of roasting nuts, it grills other items, like berries. Even Ash experienced this repeatedly at the beginning of the anime and became a victim.
Whenever Pikachu encounters something new, it shocks it with electricity. If you find a burned berry, this Pokémon misjudged its electric charge.
Pokédex entry of Pikachu
6. Azurill
Azurill
A baby Pokémon that uses its abilities in a pretty cool way is Azurill. It throws its tail like a lasso and flies back afterward. The image in my head of an Azurill being catapulted through the air with its tail leading always makes me smile.
Azurill throws its tail out like a lasso and then flies behind it. One Azurill has managed to cover a record distance of 10 m this way.
Pokédex entry of Azurill
5. Eneco
Eneco
The tail of Eneco has also fascinated the Pokémon from the 3rd generation. Here I have the typical cartoon image from my childhood where a cat chases its tail. This memory can only be funny.
Eneco is fascinated by moving objects and chases after them. This Pokémon often chases its own tail until it gets dizzy.
Pokédex entry of Eneco
4. Alola-Kleinstein
Alola-Kleinstein
Alola-Kleinstein has a special method of resolving disputes: with headbutts. This primarily reminds me of the infamous dwarf chess from the comedy “7 Dwarfs – Men Alone in the Woods”.
There, the dwarves play chess in their own way by hitting each other over the head with the board. I imagine something similar with Alola-Kleinstein.
Kleinstein resolves disputes with headbutts. The iron sand on their heads sticks to the one that has more magnetic force.
Pokédex entry of Alola-Kleinstein
3. Rameidon
Rameidon
Another head-heavy Pokémon is Rameidon. The monster directly resembles a dinosaur, which is known to be extinct. According to Pokémon GO, however, a reason for this was not an asteroid, but its too small brain and thus its stupidity. However, this theory sounds so creepy that it’s funny again.
This prehistoric Pokémon, specialized in headbutts, is said to have gone extinct due to its small brain and stupidity according to a theory.
A Pokémon that is totally cute and whose behavior also brings a smile is Seemops. The Water and Ice-type monster shows its joy by clapping and has a real clap concert with its friends.
No wonder my mind imagines pictures of several Seemops rolling toward each other, similar to the trolls in Frozen, and finally sitting clapping in a circle in front of their food.
Seemops can roll faster than it can run. When groups of this Pokémon eat together, they clap simultaneously to show their joy. Therefore, their meals are very loud.
Pokédex entry of Seemops
1. Seejong
Seejong
The behavior of Seemops can only be topped by Seejong, in my opinion. The evolution of Seemops loves to play with its pre-evolution in its own unique way. The thought of it brightens my day and makes me laugh like a waddling penguin.
Seejong has the habit of juggling everything it sees for the first time on its nose. This Pokémon keeps itself entertained by sometimes balancing a Seemops on its nose and rolling back and forth.
Pokédex entry of Seejong
However, there are still many monsters not yet in Pokémon GO. For this reason, we will surely find some other funny surprises in the texts of the Pokédex in the future.
What do you think of the Pokédex entries in Pokémon GO? Which of the texts made you smile the most? And which monsters are among your favorites from the funniest entries? Let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers on this topic.
The game of the little pocket monsters has already celebrated its 6th anniversary this year. We once took a look back in the past and show you, how huge Pokémon GO was when it was released.
