Are you true fans of World of Warcraft and know Azeroth inside out? Then this quiz should be no problem for you.
World of Warcraft is considered one of the largest MMORPGs of all time. This refers not only to the numerous expansions or the sheer size of the game world but also to its longevity. After all, WoW has been on the market for over 20 years and is still thriving.
Because the game has continued to grow, it can be difficult to stay up to date across all areas or keep all the information in your head. Every patch brings new storylines, as well as new items, raid bosses, mechanics, or brand new features, such as housing in just a few weeks.

Changing hair color in Where Winds Meet is not that easy. MeinMMO explains to you what you need to do to not have to stick with the black starting hair.
How can you change your hair color? The bad news first: Directly in the character editor at the beginning of the game, you cannot change your hair color at will. You have to start with the default black hair in Where Winds Meet. Only later can you change your hair color.
Once you have unlocked the in-game shop, you can purchase items that allow you to change your hair color.
How to change your hair color in Where Winds Meet
What you need: To dye your hair in Where Winds Meet, you must acquire one of the following two items:
With Inkshade Hair Dye, you can select basic, muted hair colors. The price is 50 pearls, which is approximately 80 euro cents. Alternatively, you can exchange the item for 5 Earth Essences,
With Timeless Hair Dye, you can choose vibrant, stronger colors. This item is only available in the drawing shop, and you need a Harmonious Core for it.
Go to the shop in the game and switch to the drawing shop directly under “highlighted”. This is the first highlighted button. Then switch to “Drawing” and find the timeless hair dye at the very bottom.
The Inkshade Hair Dye can be found at the very bottom in the “Earth Essence” tab or in the main tab “Items” in the drawing shop.
How to dye your hair:
Open the “Appearance” tab in the main menu and switch to the “Workshop” tab.
Here you can select the “Dyeing” section.
Now you can select the hairstyle you want to dye.
However, note that some hairstyles, including the starting hairstyles, cannot be dyed. Hairstyles that can be dyed are marked with a small multicolored icon.
After selecting the hairstyle you want to dye, choose “Basic Hair Color” (Inkshade Hair Dye) or “Advanced Hair Color” (Timeless Hair Dye).
The Assault Rifle M15 MOD 0 is a strong choice for multiplayer in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, which is available to you from the start. We will show you 2 builds that you can use to play the rifle.
What kind of weapon is this? The M15 MOD 0 is a fully automatic assault rifle with balanced penetration, precision, and handling. The weapon has a standard magazine capacity of 30 rounds.
The weapon is available to you as a pre-made build as soon as you start the first round in the multiplayer of CoD: Black Ops 7. And from player level 4, you can equip the M15 MOD 0 in your armory.
CoD Black Ops 7: M15 MOD 0 – Meta Build
What kind of build is this? The M15 MOD 0 is according to wzstats.gg one of the best weapons for multiplayer. Below we will show you a setup that is considered a meta build for the assault rifle (as of November 14, 2025).
Sight: Lethal Tools ELO
Muzzle: RL -5.56 Brake
Underbarrel: Angled Ironhold Grip
Grip: Smuggled Goods Grip
Fire Modification: Buffer Springs
What makes the setup strong? The muzzle brake and grip provide better recoil control, while the underbarrel improves aiming stability and weapon movement when aiming. The buffer springs also enhance the horizontal and vertical recoil control of the assault rifle. For the sight, you can choose one that suits you best, or omit the sight and select a different attachment, such as a larger magazine.

CoD Black Ops 7: M15 MOD 0 – Build with 8 Attachments
If you prefer to play with 8 attachments, you need to equip the wildcard “Gunslinger”. Otherwise, you have to limit yourself to 5. You will unlock the wildcard at player level 29.
The following 8 attachments are recommended:
Sight: Lethal Tools ELO
Muzzle: RL -5.56 Brake
Barrel: 20″ Delta-F2 Barrel
Underbarrel: Angled Ironhold Grip
Magazine: Backline-Flip Magazine
Grip: Contour Grip
Stock: Telescoping Stock
Fire Modifications: MFS 5.56 NATO Full Metal Jacket
What makes the setup strong? The barrel increases the projectile speed of the weapon, while the grip boosts the firing rate after sprinting. The stock increases your movement speed. The magazine allows you to reload faster. However, you can also choose a larger magazine if you want more bullets.
The fire modification “MFS 5.56 NATO Full Metal Jacket” is a prestige attachment that you unlock at prestige level 1 of the weapon. Alternatively, you can also equip the buffer springs again here.
With the various attachments, you can influence your weapons’ playstyle. However, one thing that you as a controller player have no influence over is aim assist. The aim assist has been a hotly debated topic in the community for years. With Black Ops 7, the developers have tweaked the controversial feature: Call of Duty weakens the controversial aim assist with Black Ops 7: Players now have to aim themselves

Diablo 4 is launching soon in China, and as a result, there are some adjustments for the game on Chinese servers – especially in terms of visuals. Certain content is not well-received in China. The replacements, however, are quite disappointing.
Now, years later, the release in the land of the rising sun is finally coming, after the two companies have reconciled. On December 12, the official Chinese servers for Diablo 4 will go live. However, the game will look significantly different there.
This will be censored: In China, the treatment of the dead and spiritual themes in general is quite different from what we see in the West. Consequently, there is quite a bit of censorship, especially since Diablo deals with such dark themes.
One of the most prominent examples is the Walking Death, one of the world bosses in the game that regularly spawns on the world map. It is actually a huge skeleton that constantly tears itself apart. Not so in China:

Other representations are also heavily altered, as wowhead has discovered:
Blood is represented merely as brown dust, even when it comes from animals.
The Hunter’s Penetrating Shot actually shows two skulls – in China, only two golden masks pierced by an arrow.
Although there are no images yet, it can be assumed that many enemies and the Necromancer’s minions will also be censored. How this will happen remains to be seen.
Blizzard is essentially “returning to its roots” with Diablo 4 and has created a dark atmosphere with the corresponding visuals, following the rather colorful Diablo 3. The Chinese client won’t see much of that.

Der Mann, der Diablo gerettet hat, verlässt Blizzard nach 5 Jahren
Many games look completely different in China
Diablo 4 is not the first Blizzard game to be censored for the Chinese market. The predecessor, Diablo 3, made similar adjustments. For example, skeletons in China wear clothing, while they are bare in the western version.
World of Warcraft also looks significantly different in parts. All undead models have flesh on their bones, including the playable race. Some bosses are suddenly “alive” again and no longer undead, and monstrosities become storm giants.
Even the famous “Path of Glory,” made from the crushed bones of all Draenei slaughtered during the Orc War in Draenor, is merely a paved road in China, rendering an entire quest pointless.
On Reddit, many users are wondering why China has such a problem with this depiction. In a comment, it is stated that all Halloween items in stores depicting skeletons or similar come from China – but suddenly there are problems with the games.
A player finds a problem in ARC Raiders that deeply troubles him: All the hard work on a special collection seems to be for nothing, as he can only display a fraction of this achievement. Even the community sides with him.
What is the Raider complaining about? The frustrated player shares a problem on Reddit that the developers of ARC Raiders need to fix as soon as possible: He collected over 600 rubber ducks, but he cannot display all of them in his base. In an attached screenshot, he shows that he can only place 9 on his shelf, a pitiful fraction of his impressive collection.

Instead of mocking the Raider’s misfortune, players can understand his frustration. His situation is not only unfortunate but also quite impressive: “I have so much respect for this madness” (Majinmagics from Reddit).
Here you can see the trailer for the community event in ARC Raiders, where you might also find things to start your own collection:

Players Demand Justice for the Duck Collector
What are the rubber ducks in ARC Raiders good for? The small rubber duck can be found during exploration in ARC Raiders and sold for 1,000 credits – but many players would feel it’s too wasteful to sell it quickly.
The duck can be thrown to create a distraction, as it makes a small noise upon impact that could distract other players. Of course, you can also throw it directly at other players, which can be interpreted in different ways, as Biff3070 explains on Reddit: “Could be seen as a form of aggression. Use at your own risk.”
Since the rubber duck in the inventory is marked with a diamond icon, it can also simply be displayed in one’s own space – like the player from the Reddit post.
How does the community react to the player’s situation? Besides the various criticisms some Raiders have about the extraction shooter, it is precisely this player’s request that truly moves the community:
“When people said play how you want, you really took it to heart,” praises MongooseOne on Reddit, and Atown-Stadown also believes that the collector’s concern is finally a valid issue in the game that Embark should find a solution for: “Out of all the whiny, selfish, ridiculous requests in this subreddit, FINALLY there is a legitimate one.”
Other players are finally pleased to have seemingly found the reason why they themselves never come across rubber ducks: “So that’s why I haven’t seen a rubber duck in ages” (Crimsonmaddog44 on Reddit).
These supportive words from other ARC Raiders are no longer a rarity in the game. The community reports many positive, wild, and also funny moments with other players who come across each other on the map. A similar encounter was witnessed in a Twitch stream where a streamer decided to show mercy to another player – but ultimately had to watch as the game wouldn’t let his new friend live: Twitch streamer wants to save a player in ARC Raiders whom he himself knocked out, but the AI has other plans

The robots in ARC Raiders have received reinforcements, as you can now encounter the Matriarch – an armored behemoth with many deadly weapons. Here you will learn how to find the ARC, what strategies are best in battle, and what loot awaits you.
Where can I find the Matriarch? The Matriarch was introduced with Update 1.2.0 and is currently the largest ARC that the mechanical enemy faction has to offer – even larger than the Queen.
You can only encounter the beast when the Matriarch’s map event is active. Other than that, you have no chance of finding the robot. According to fans, the Matriarch can spawn on any map as long as the event is active.
It is only worth challenging the Matriarch if you are fully equipped, and currently, only one map offers enough cover for a confrontation without suffering major losses: the Dam Battlefields. The Matriarch always spawns at the break of the dam during the event, so you can’t miss her.
Start video
Trailer for the community event “Breaking New Ground” in ARC Raiders
How to fight the Matriarch and what weapons you should bring
What attacks does the Matriarch have? To efficiently eliminate the new enemy, you need to know what attacks the beast has. You should expect the following:
Homing Missiles
You will be marked and the Matriarch will launch a barrage of homing missiles that aggressively pursue you and can deal a lot of damage.
Gas Attacks
Gas grenades will be deployed at your locations via a mortar, hindering your stamina regeneration.
Flashbangs
Large white grenades will be deployed at your locations, detonating and making your screen flash white. You won’t be able to see anything for 3-5 seconds.
Besides that, the ARC also has an indestructible shield that blocks all your attacks. Fortunately, this is not permanently active. You will need to attack at specific times.
As if the attacks weren’t enough, the Matriarch occasionally calls in new units like wasps, hornets, rocket gunners, or bastions.
What weapons and items should I take with me? Important are armor-piercing weapons. These include:
The Hullcracker
The Jupiter
The Ferro
The Anvil
This ARC is heavily armored, so anyone wanting to deal damage needs something with high penetration capability.
Don’t skimp on useful items either. Grenades like the Wolfpacks are recommended for breaking the monster’s armor more effectively. You should also take large (blue) bandages and shield boosters, and maybe even a spare shield in case the current one breaks during use.
Ideally, you should fill your backpack ²⁄₄ with healing items, 1⁄4 with ammunition, and leave the rest for the subsequent loot.
What is the best strategy for the fight? Like the Queen, the Matriarch has many legs for movement. However, we advise against concentrating your fire on them. Instead, you should aim for the head of the ARC.
This is less armored, and once you have broken through the armor, the sensitive red core of the robot will be exposed, which can be detonated with well-aimed shots.
During your attacks, the ARC will bombard you with missiles. If you have chosen the map ‘Dam Battlefields’ for the fight, you don’t need to worry. The Matriarch will be at the break of the dam. You can find a spot on the elevation and seek cover behind the countless concrete supports of the surrounding buildings.
At the break the Matriarch spawnsWith your high ground, you have a good overview of the battlefield
You can ignore the gas and flashbangs. They usually only pose a threat when you have enemy raiders around you.
One point you should not ignore are the Matriarch’s reinforcement units. Enemies like the rocket gunners can kill you faster than the largest ARC, so be careful and try to take them out as well.
Finally, after the Matriarch has been defeated, you should keep a close eye on the surrounding terrain. The ARC will send a wave of reinforcements at you shortly before it dies, and this includes a bastion unit. Ignoring this will likely lead to your demise.
What loot does the Matriarch drop? The most important loot from the Matriarch is the Matriarch Reactor. It is still unknown what fans need it for, but it is assumed to be important for crafting new weapons.
These were all the important details we could provide for the fight against the Matriarch. Do you have tactics or tips for players who still struggle with the boss fight?

The Blood of Dawnwalker shows 30 minutes of new gameplay. The vampire RPG on Steamis developed by former developers of The Witcher 3 – and you can tell it by the game.
What kind of game is this? The Blood of Dawnwalker is a new open-world RPG developed by the studio Rebel Wolves, which consists partly of former developers from CD Projekt Red, including Konrad Tomaszkiewicz – Game Director of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
In The Blood of Dawnwalker, you play as Coen. He is the Dawnwalker, which is what the game is named after: during the day a human, at night a powerful vampire. Coen wants to use his powers to save his family – but you only have 30 days in the game to do so.
In June 2025, the developers already showed 20 minutes of gameplay from The Blood of Dawnwalker. Now there are nearly 30 more minutes from the game to see. Once again, a quest is shown, which reveals the game’s greatest strength: the influence of the time of day on quests. Depending on whether it is currently day or night, different paths are open to you.
Here you can see a trailer for the game:

A quest, many possibilities
What does the gameplay show? The quest is the same that was shown during the last gameplay reveal. However, at some points, different decisions are made, which changes its course.
In the first half of the video, Coen is out during the day again. Upon arriving at the cathedral, he talks this time with another person who proposes a trade.
If Coen finds the missing janitor of the cathedral, he gets to read a book in the library. There might be something about a lost crypt that he is searching for.
Coen then sets out on a search and finds a monster in front of him. It likes to teleport away from the fight and strikes wildly at him, making it quite difficult to hit. After the battle, Coen resurrects one of the dead in the room and learns that the monster was the missing janitor.

Coen has access to magic only as a human, as explained in the video: If we had been there at night, we wouldn’t have been able to resurrect the dead. Thus, we wouldn’t have found out that the monster was the missing janitor.
Back at the quest giver, Coen reports his findings and is allowed to enter the library. The developers then show how the quests could have unfolded at night:
Instead of diving into the vampires holding a ceremony in the cathedral at night like in the previous gameplay, he can also sneak past them.
With his vampire abilities, Coen can get into the library this way, but only at night. There, he also finds the information he needs to locate the crypt he is searching for. However, on his way there, he has to fight past some guards.
Developers build on the strengths of The Witcher 3
You can tell the game has the legacy of The Witcher 3:
Quests and decisions also play a significant role here, sometimes even more than in The Witcher 3. There, the time of day rarely made a difference; here, it opens up entirely new paths and closes others.
Atmosphere and music evoke the same feeling of a dark fantasy world, and especially the soundtrack clearly reminds of The Witcher 3.
A player requested escort in ARC Raiders because he wasn’t bleeding out due to an item, but he was not rewarded for his ordeal.
How was the stranger helped? A player in ARC Raiders noticed unknown players with a friendly “Hello Raider” and asked them to accompany him to the extraction point.
The player explained that he was using a special augment: the loot mark 3 with a perk that regenerates the Raider’s health by up to 75% when he doesn’t move while incapacitated.
The bleeding Raider can crawl to an extraction point if he periodically stops to regenerate health. However, he cannot defend himself against threats like the ARCs or other players and is therefore dependent on help.

How was the beautiful moment ruined? The players responded to the injured stranger’s request and escorted him to the nearest extraction point. For several minutes, the Raider crawled on the ground toward the saving elevator as the group grew larger. Eventually, 6 players gathered around the crawling stranger and accompanied him.
The Irish streamer AaronTheLoco documented the Raider’s ordeal on Twitch. He was one of the first to accompany the injured Raider on his journey, but he was also the one who ruined the beautiful moment and brought about a dramatic ending.
As the Raider crawled the last inches into the elevator, the streamer drew his weapon and shot him in the back. Therefore, he crawled all that way for nothing, as instead of returning safely to Speranza, he ultimately lost his loot.
Here you can see a compilation of the action in a clip on TikTok:

This is how the community reacts: AaronTheLoco shared the clip on various platforms like X and TikTok. While some users find the streamer’s action funny and see it as entertaining content, part of the community expresses clear criticism of the streamer for his betrayal of the stranger Raider.
Some users comment that it would have been a cool video, but the ending ruined it. Many would have preferred a video that shows the cohesion of the community.
Can incapacitated Raiders really extract? Yes, you can extract at any time as long as you are incapacitated but not dead. If you make it into an elevator before you completely bleed out, you successfully extract and do not lose your gear or loot.
You can even operate the console inside the elevator while you are incapacitated, so it heads to Speranza. Alternatively, the elevator will also return to the hideout on its own after a certain period.

League of Legends regularly releases new champions. The first new addition in 2025 was a mage, who was deemed too strong by many players. After some nerfs and adjustments, she is still hated by the community.
Players definitely did not want to see the new mage and brought Mel to a ban rate record of almost 80%. In November 2025, Mel had the highest ban rate among over 170 champions with 40% and is ranked 15th among the most played champs.
The latest champion is called Zaahen and received a trailer at Worlds 2025:
Start video
The trailer of the new champion of League of Legends showcases his abilities in action
What makes Mel so unpopular? The unpopularity of the mage has several reasons. Mainly, it is due to her abilities and how easy they are to use for the effect they bring.
Mel has a strong attack ability that is hard to dodge. Additionally, she throws a magical orb, holding opponents in the inner area and slowing them in the outer area. Her passive ability allows her to debuff her enemies and ultimately execute them. Her ultimate is no joke either, as every opponent with a debuff receives devastating damage.
However, the biggest thorn in the players’ side is her shield. For a short while, Mel becomes invulnerable and fires abilities back at the opposing champs.
The community finds Mel just annoying
What do players say about the mage? The Reddit user Subjctive tried Mel for the first time after seeing Faker play her. He referred to her as “a damn cheat code” and pointed out why she feels like cheating:
The execution of the passive ability also works on minions, making it very easy for the player to secure crucial last hits for a gold advantage. The laning phase is also very simple with Mel because every ability has decent range, and with the shield, she is protected from attacking champions. Furthermore, Subjctive writes that Mel is only fun when you play her yourself.
Another user describes Mel as Yuumi of the mid lane. Yuumi is also a disliked champ, as the support cat simply sits on her teammate’s shoulder and bombards you with annoying abilities.
Tunivor believes that Mel’s shield is a crime against humanity. He is particularly shocked by the reflecting of abilities, as they do not fly randomly but have auto-aim towards the original source of the spell.
Starting from December 27, 2025, the big Twitch event will take place in World of Warcraft Classic. The streamers Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller, Maximilian “HandOfBlood” Knabe, and Giacomo “Metashi12” Gaviria are planning the event and have brainstormed ideas and names they want to have in the past weeks. Even now, there is ongoing discussion about the participants, and Metashi believes that not everyone can be invited.
What kind of event is this? In recent weeks, the Twitch streamer Metashi has shared new information and ideas about the planned WoW event. A hardcore guild of Twitch streamers is to be created, who will play WoW Classic together. Each Twitch streamer will only have one attempt with their character; if they die, they are out.
The anticipation for the event is high within the Twitch scene and community. It doesn’t matter whether the individual is a professional or a beginner in WoW. Nevertheless, Metashi and his colleagues reserve the right to not want certain people to participate and not to invite them.

Certain streamers are to be excluded from the WoW event
Who is not allowed to participate? When asked by his Twitch chat about further participants, Metashi initially said: “So there will actually be a bit of drama. I have to say that honestly, but we will try to manage it as best as we can.” (Source: YouTube from minute 00:20).
The Twitch streamer continues, stating that he has been streaming WoW for 7 years and would know everyone who streams the game. If someone new starts playing the game, he would always engage with that person.
This has led him to know exactly who he wants to have and who not. He explains that there are “a certain type of people that often stream WoW, who are not really an asset for any events”.
This would be due to their behavior and what is said in the stream, but also their treatment of others. There are enough people who would then not be invited to the WoW event. Also, WoW streamers with a problematic history would not be invited; the event is simply too important to him and others for that.
An exclusion, Metashi continues, is their decision and it would not be missed if certain streamers did not participate. The Twitch streamer then states: “It’s not like we have a duty to invite every person who fucking streams WoW. (…) It’s also our right to say ‘We do not want to invite that person’.” (Source: YouTube from minute 01:55). Behind the scenes, some names have already been discussed regarding whether they should be invited or not.
The 2nd season of Fallout shows in trailers that once again many elements of the games find their way into the series. A dangerous faction will likely play an important role, threatening the entire wasteland.
The Legion is not just another faction trying to assert its goals; it is a significant threat that relies on the Roman Empire and could become a major problem in season 2.
You can watch the new trailer for the 2nd season of Fallout here:

The official trailer for Fallout Season 2 takes us back to the apocalypse
A nasty dictator who loved the Roman Empire a bit too much
What is Caesar’s Legion? The faction was founded by Edward Sallow, who was once a member of the Followers of the Apocalypse. During a mission, he was captured by the Blackfoot tribe. To prevent his death, he helped the tribe with tactics from the Roman Empire. Before his capture, he found books about the Roman Empire and studied them extensively.
Through his tactics, the Blackfoot tribe was able to defeat other tribes, and Sallow gradually became the leader, who thereafter called himself Caesar. He conquered other tribes, integrated them into his group, and killed those who resisted. His goal: He wants to conquer the New California Republic.
To carry out his campaign, he relies on certain cornerstones:
All conquered tribes must submit to his principles and the beliefs of the Legion to create loyal warriors
He rules as a totalitarian dictator and eliminates anyone who does not wish to be led by him
For the peace, a homogeneous culture and society must emerge
Under his leadership, the individual has value only as a worker for the Legion
Technology is frowned upon because, according to Caesar, humanity can only grow through hardship
The warriors of the Legion must undergo harsh training, and in war, Caesar relies not only on a hierarchical structure and troop strength; he also attempts to psychologically attack his opponents with cruel deeds.
The series could explain what happened after New Vegas
What happened to Caesar’s Legion? In 2282, there was a final and second battle at Hoover Dam (the first was lost by the Legion in 2277). The fate of the region and the entire Mojave wasteland lies with the player and the decisions they make throughout the game.
If one chooses to side with the Legion, one saves Caesar from a tumor. This allows them to conquer the wasteland together with the faction.
However, if the player decides to fight against Caesar’s Legion and even kills the leader, it must be explained what happened between the game and the series. The series takes place in 2297, 15 years after the second battle at Hoover Dam.
Thus, the question for the 2nd season is whether the Legion has rebuilt itself, ruled the Mojave wasteland for 15 years, or if a new Legion has formed. An important part of the Legion seems to be a new character in the series, portrayed by Macaulay Culkin.
Gigantamax-Olangaar awaits you in the Pokémon GO Nature Zone 2025. How do you defeat it? We have tips and counters for you.
What kind of event is this? This weekend, the global GO Nature Zone 2025 is taking place. One of the highlights of this event is the battle against Gigantamax-Olangaar.
What kind of Pokémon is this? Olangaar is the evolution of Bähmon and Pelzebub. The Gigantamax variant of Olangaar is the gigantic version of the Fairy/Dark Pokémon.
Can Olangaar be Shiny? Yes, you can catch the shiny version of Gigantamax-Olangaar after the battle.
Start video
Pokémon GO: Over 800 Trainers fight in Gigantamax battle
Tip 1: Play as a group against Gigantamax-Olangaar
You will not defeat Gigantamax-Olangaar alone. Instead, you will need a group of trainers. Depending on how well your group has leveled up their Dynamax attackers and defenders, you may need a sizable number of players. Gigantamax battles allow up to 40 trainers. Of course, it’s also possible with significantly fewer players, especially with strong Pokémon. But: Be prepared for a tough battle.
If you don’t have a group:
Use the Campfire app to find organized groups.
Use Remote Raid Passes to join larger groups elsewhere. However, you need to be invited.
Try your luck in busy locations where multiple people might be playing.
Tip 2: Play strategically – not just offense!
The Dynamax feature involves more than just attack. Also use shield and healing attacks to support your Pokémon defensively.
It’s best if you assign appropriate roles within your group. Two players attack, two focus on support.
Also, always switch to your strongest attackers during the Dynamax phase to protect them from damage for as long as possible and keep them in the fight. However, your best attackers in the case of Olangaar are also your best defenders.
By the way: It’s usually not worth using your charged attack outside of the Dynamax phase. Instead, use quick fast attacks to quickly fill the Dynamax gauge. Using charged attacks will only waste your time.
Tip 3: Strong attackers and defenders against Gigantamax-Olangaar
Your teams should leverage type advantages to deal as much damage as possible. Fortunately, two of the currently best Dynamax Pokémon are also strong against Olangaar: Zacian and Zamazenta. Especially Zacian in its Crowned form is a top attacker against Olangaar while also taking hits well.
Strong attackers against Olangaar:
Blade of Justice Zacian
Shield of Justice Zamazenta
Dynamax-Metagross
Gigantamax-Deponitox
Dynamax-Stalobor
Or: Other Pokémon of the types Fairy, Poison, or Steel.
Strong defenders or healers against Olangaar:
Blade of Justice Zacian
Shield of Justice Zamazenta
Dynamax-Heiteira
Gigantamax-Relaxo
Dynamax-Krarmor
Which team? Generally, Heiteira is your best option for defense and healing. Heiteira combined with the legendary dogs is a strong team against Gigantamax-Olangaar.
Tip 4: Support through items and adventure effects
When it comes to items, you can use Dyna-Mushrooms to deal additional damage. This way, you might be able to compensate for not having enough trainers.
Dynamax Cannon by Endynalos increases your Pokémon’s Dyna-attack level. Very useful, however, it does not affect the attacks of Zacian and Zamazenta, as they do not Dynamax.
Giant Strike by Zacian increases your damage.
Giant Impact boosts your defense.
Important: Endynalos is relevant for this fight only because of its adventure effect, which you can activate before the fight. It does not need to be in your team and should not be: As a Dragon-type Pokémon, it is not very effective against Olangaar. However, its adventure effect should be very useful.
Are you preparing for the battle against Gigantamax-Olangaar? Then tell us how you are getting ready and which monsters you are using. However, there’s more to catch this weekend! Especially the mighty Pokémon you can encounter in the wild are exciting. Which ones are they? We have summarized this in our overview of powerful Pokémon!

The game developer and publisher Krafton, known primarily for PUBGis moving forward with an “AI first” strategy. Therefore, it is offering its employees the option to leave voluntarily.
What did Krafton announce? On October 23, CEO Kim Chang-han announced plans to transform Krafton into an “AI first” company, with a strong focus on the use of artificial intelligence. Employees should henceforth “concentrate on creative activities and solving complex problems”.
In the course of this restructuring, it appears that they now want to reduce their workforce and are offering employees the option to leave voluntarily. According to BusinessKorea, they have already started sending out corresponding emails to all employees of the company.
Krafton itself states that this program is intended as support for employees – not as a means to reduce staff: “The core purpose is to help employees proactively shape their growth direction and tackle new challenges within and outside the company in the era of AI transformation”.
The development studio behind the action RPG Last Epoch was recently acquired by Krafton:

New Direction Despite Record Profits
What is the current state of the company? Financially speaking, things are currently looking good for Krafton. In the 3rd quarter of 2025, they reported record profits, as the company announced on November 4. Due to strong performance, they plan to invest over 100 billion Won (around 59 million Euros) in the Indian market and the AI sector.
How are players reacting? Some gaming fans are concerned about the company’s new strategy. While Krafton is primarily known for the free battle royale shooter PUBG, it is also involved in the development of other games – including Subnautica 2, inZOI, and Last Epoch.
Krafton’s decision regarding AI is currently also impacting the Steam reviews of various games published by the company. Players are increasingly leaving negative reviews, condemning the company’s decision:
“There is no place for AI in human art, and no amount of corporate greed will change that,” writes Mortimerski in a review of Last Epoch (Steam), and he is not alone.
“Who will still want to buy or play Krafton’s games when everything is just AI mush and you replace your human employees in HR, customer service, etc.?” writes PrincessHoneyBat in a review of inZOI (Steam).
Many players eventually find themselves in Dungeons & Dragons and also encounter the Feywild, or at least deal with fairies at some point. However, there are some customs surrounding them that one should know better – one player fell victim to this and is asking the community for advice.
What happened to the player? As LikeMy5thAccountNow shares in his thread on Reddit, he made a fatal mistake in his Dungeons & Dragons campaign. He had bid farewell to a fairy with the words “Have a nice day” and thus left her one of his upcoming good days.
The user is therefore reaching out to the community to find out if others would have decided as his game master did, as he himself would have interpreted the situation differently. He acknowledges that the fairy would get one day from him, but he thought she would rather take one from his past.
But the community shows: The problem with the player’s situation is a very different one.

All a Matter of Interpretation
What does the community think about the situation? In the approximately 356 comments (as of November 14, 2025, 11:20 AM), there are various opinions on the player’s problem. Many users believe that the fairy should not have taken the day, as she would first have needed to ask the player for it.
According to folklore, fairies are primarily tricksters and seize every opportunity to take “gifts” for themselves. However, they also hate being in debt to someone, which is why they mostly “ask” their victims for the gifts.
DarkElfBard comments on this:
You neither said, “You may have one of my nice days,” nor agreed to give someone something. You commanded her: “Have a nice day.”
The reason why “May I have your name?” is a trap is that it asks for your name.
If you had said, “You can/You may…”, that would have left it open to interpretation. But if you simply wish someone a nice day, that will never be understood as them taking one of your nice days.
However, some users also believe that the game master’s decision to take the good day from the player was justified. For if you offer something to fairies, they would always seize the opportunity as soon as it arises, according to their interpretation.
Many commentators also note that most fairies are not such powerful spellcasters that they could alter reality to such an extent and that decisions often stray too far from the rules. Such magical abilities would primarily belong to beings like Archfey and vassals, who could indeed have a long-term influence on memory, perception, and time.
Should the fairy have taken the player’s day? That is indeed left primarily to the individual interpretation of the game master and the players. The rules of Dungeons & Dragons do not have clear rules for this. However, those who want to play particularly rules-conscious should consider beforehand how powerful the fairy the players encounter really is and what spells she knows.
Here it can be helpful to have the stat blocks of suitable fairy creatures on hand and to really only take the spells that are included and “take the gifts” within that framework. Alternatively, you can also create a character of the “fairy” race and choose a suitable class, then decide within that framework. This way you have a little more leeway with the abilities.
A player loses his phone during vacation. Later, it appears at the other end of the world and regularly gets in touch with him. He shares the story of his phone that is traveling the world with the community.
This is what the user reports: The user reports on Reddit that his phone was stolen from him three years ago during his vacation in Barcelona (Spain). But the story does not end there. His phone reappears 8,500 kilometers away in China and gets in touch with him once a week. And this has been going on for three years now. He explained that he has been monitoring his phone as it travels around China.
For the person who bought the stolen iPhone, there is still a catch. The person cannot really use the device, which is due to Apple.

Apple’s “Lost” mode makes stolen iPhone unusable
Here’s what’s behind it: As long as the owner does not “liberate” the device from their Apple account, it is unusable for other people. This is due to the “Lost” mode that Apple offers on its devices. Apple states about this:
When the managed mode “Lost” is activated, the current users are logged out and the device cannot be unlocked. A message appears on the screen, which can be customized by the administrator.
For the thief or the person who later buys the stolen device, the phone remains unusable until the actual owner unlocks it.
Many users in the community warn against being pressured by thieves. A common tactic is to threaten the owner by claiming to have their private data: Even if strangers pressure you and threaten that they have your data on the phone, under no circumstances should you release your device. The possible thieves have no access to your data nor to the iPhone itself. Only when you release the device.
Another user also had his phone stolen after he sent it for repair to an eBay dealer. The thief broke into the dealer’s mailbox and stole the device. However, the thief made a mistake: he took the iPhone to a repair shop that helped the real owner get his phone back: A user gets his stolen iPhone back because the thief took it for repair

At the end of the story, which consists of 11 missions and takes players to various locations, the endgame of the campaign is unlocked in the form of a new 12th mission. During the campaign and in its endgame, you can level up your weapons, but the goal is to play your operator to level 60.
Black Ops 7 is thus the first Call of Duty to have an endgame for the campaign. This was supposed to be the big, special innovation and a highlight, but the first players express strong criticism.

The Black Ops 7 campaign makes a mistake that many gamers hate
What mistake does the campaign make? A few hours after the release of Black Ops 7, the first players complain in a gaming forum on resetera that the campaign has no save points (checkpoints) and no pause function, kicks AFK players, and requires an (always online) connection.
Also on Reddit, players express a similar tone. One user calls the entire campaign a big step back compared to the campaign of Black Ops 6.
Why does this bother so many players? Even in multiplayer games like Call of Duty, players often have a recurring demand for the campaign: it must be playable solo offline.
Especially the online requirement is regularly a thorn in the players’ side and repeatedly causes heated emotions, not only due to the often accompanying lack of a pause function.
A part of the criticism of the online requirement is that games are therefore unplayable when a player’s internet fails. Especially a campaign should be able to function offline and solo for many gamers.
What else is criticized about the BO7 campaign? Another major point of criticism associated with the coop campaign is the solo gameplay (cf. Reddit).
In coop mode, you and your friends take on the roles of various team members to support David Mason. In solo mode, however, you are completely on your own in battles. You do not get any NPC companions that control Mason’s comrades in battle. However, those operators still talk to you and appear in cutscenes – so they are somehow present, just not by your side in the fight.
With Wake of the Water, Enshrouded has received its 7th and largest update to date. Players welcome the changes and flock back to the game. The survival game from Frankfurt has more players than it has seen in a long time and they praise the update. There is some criticism, however.
What kind of game is this?
Enshrouded takes place in a world largely swallowed by a strange fog, the Miasma. Most people have died or been transformed.
The game offers classic survival elements such as crafting and building, but combines them with RPG content like action combat and a large skill tree, as well as exploring an open world reminiscent of Zelda.
Particularly, the voxel system has earned Enshrouded the reputation of being “Minecraft for adults” and allows for terraforming like few other survival games on the market.
What’s new in Enshrouded: On November 10th, Wake of the Water was released as the 7th update for Enshrouded, which is still in early access. The developers are continuously working on the game, which is already regarded as one of the best survival games.
The update mainly brings a new area, the Wogschimmer-Grund in the northwest and water as a new feature. Water is fully physical, recognizing pressure, boundaries, and flow behavior. Other highlights include:
loads of bug fixes and quality improvements, such as increased stack sizes for many items
According to steamcharts, Enshrouded reached a peak of 36,437 concurrent players on Wednesday, with a trend of increasing numbers since the update’s release. The weekend may bring even more, potentially breaking the peak of 42,000 from November 2024. Enshrouded had only more players at launch.

“Oh yes, let’s get wet!”
Wake of the Water is well received on Steam. The game’s ratings are already “very positive,” but the graph shows a strong increase in positive reviews since the release of the update – and only a modest rise in negative ratings.
Looking at Steam and Reddit, especially the water feature has generated excitement. The ability to create ponds, irrigate fields, and design entirely new bases seems to thrill many fans. Additionally, many are trying their hand at the new components for beautiful bamboo huts by the beach.
Smaller, less noticeable changes like larger item stacks are also receiving a lot of approval. The general sentiment is: Enshrouded was good before and is now even better.
Criticism mainly focuses on the new balancing and… the water, although mostly from the top. Many weapons have been revised and their “legacy” versions are now significantly stronger, as one user shows on Reddit. So be sure to check your chests to see if you have any treasures lying around.
The second major complaint is stamina. It has become significantly more challenging to manage since the update and requires a “Rested” buff so that you don’t only move stealthily.
While attacks no longer require stamina, it is now more difficult to regenerate stamina at all. Additionally, you get wet when it rains (or in the water), which cannot be avoided and further hinders regeneration.
After players of Battlefield 6 have been complaining about the size of the maps since launch, the developers have now made a significant change and are simultaneously reviewing all maps.
What bothers the fans? Fans of Battlefield 6 have consistently expressed criticism regarding the size of the maps since the release (via Reddit). Many fans see the issue primarily as the maps being too small, often resulting in stalemates. In these cases, there is often a prolonged standstill without any movement.
In fact, vehicles were supposed to help break that standstill and get the game back in motion, but fans complain that the vehicles are too weak for this task. Thus, on the small maps, it turns into a meat grinder where both sides make no progress but constantly eliminate each other.
While some fans view this as an overcorrection after the too-large maps from Battlefield 2042, the developers have now taken initial steps to combat the problem.
Here you can see the maps:

Die große Stärke von Battlefield 6 sind die Maps!
Fewer players and all maps under review
What have the developers announced now? In a new community update on ea.com, the developers of Battlefield 6 addressed the maps. They stated that they take player feedback seriously and are reviewing the map design and size.
With the new maps, they want to offer additional variety and bring different play styles back into focus. They are looking not only at the current situation on the official servers but also at what players build in the Portal game mode.
The developers further explain regarding the balance of action and variety: “Maintaining this balance has always been a priority for us, and we are committed to offering a variety of map types in future seasons.” However, players do not have to wait that long.
What measures have the developers implemented immediately? The developers of Battlefield 6 took the first action shortly after the update. They reduced the maximum player count in Breakthrough mode on the maps: “Empire State”, “Manhattan Bridge”, “Liberation Peak”, “New Sobek City”, “Blackwell Fields”, and “Siege Of Cairo”.
Where previously 64 players faced off in 32vs.32 battles, now only 48 players fight in 24vs.24 battles. This results in fewer stalemates in the game and fewer kills are needed to advance. The maps Mirak Valley and Operation Firestorm have maintained their player size of 64 players.
This decision is controversial among fans. Under a post by @BFBulletin on X.com, many fans express their frustration with the change and state that player count was not the problem with the maps.
