The mood around Diablo Immortal is turning. Now some fans have found a game that looks exactly like Immortal but is already 6 years old. They suspect that the framework was taken and simply provided with new skins.
This is the situation with Immortal right now
Since June 2, Diablo Immortal has officially launched and there is still no new update.
Now there is new discontent in the community, as some fans have found a mobile game from which Diablo Immortal is allegedly copied.
What kind of game is this? Endless of God, also known as Elder God or Endless God, was released in August 2016 as a mobile Diablo alternative in China. However, the game was discontinued in February 2020.
The game was an action RPG revolving around the epic of Homer from Greek mythology. Players confronted the “evil gods” as one of 4 classes among well-known figures.
The game was only available in Chinese and never released in the West. Here we have embedded gameplay for you:

This is what the fans say: As early as 2018, during the presentation of Diablo Immortal, there were accusations that Immortal is just a blatant copy. Back then, it was about the exact same game, Endless of God.
Today, some fans compared the games again on reddit and claim that it is “the same game”. Now that we know the gameplay and visuals of Diablo Immortal well, it is easier to identify similarities.
Diablo Immortal: All 6 Classes in Brief Overview with Gameplay
The community is outraged about the obvious similarities, but also not surprised. Immortal is “the same game,” just a copy, but such things are constantly done in so-called gacha games anyway.
It is common for developers to simply release the same game with a new skin. And since NetEase is the developer behind both games, it is even less surprising.
The degree of copying is particularly striking here. Even our own interview with Wyatt Cheng is quoted, in which the game director explains how long the development time for certain content is. Fans no longer believe this statement after seeing the images.
Is the game really a blatant copy? In fact, the gameplay shown above looks like that of the barbarian from Diablo Immortal, with nearly identical skills, albeit with different weapons. The system with the charging ultimate is the same.
Particularly striking are the almost copied login screens and interfaces of the two games. However, the gameplay clip lacks information on features like clans and other MMO content that makes up Diablo Immortal.
Developers often recycle their works and change the visuals or storyline, as seen in the Fallout series. It is usually not lucrative and also unnecessary to create an entirely new engine for every new game.
Whether Immortal is viewed as a blatant copy or simply as a new iteration of a game with a new story, new look, and translations for the West remains to be seen. MeinMMO editor Benedict Grothaus would like to see more of the game in the upcoming Diablo 4:
World of Warcraft is swinging the nerf bat at the current raid. This time there are some serious changes – up to 20% fewer health points.
The raid “Mausoleum of the First” has proven to be one of the hardest raid encounters of all time in World of Warcraft. This applied not only to the mythic variant in the “World First” race, but also to the heroic and even normal versions. Even after more than 25 different nerfs, the bosses are still too tough for many players. Therefore, Blizzard is now making adjustments and swinging the nerf bat – harder than ever before in this raid.
What is changing? To say that it’s “a whole lot” would be a significant understatement. The last 4 bosses in the mausoleum will be massively weakened, health points will be reduced by up to 20%, and many abilities will now be significantly more forgiving, allowing mistakes without the entire boss fight failing.
The changes in detail are:
Anduin
Anduin’s Hope and Anduin’s Doubt have 20% less health on heroic and normal difficulty.
The movement speed of Anduin’s Hope has been reduced by 15% on normal and heroic difficulty.
Dark Fate now increases speed by only 150% instead of 200% on mythic difficulty.
Lords of Terror
Health has been reduced by 10% – on all difficulty levels.
Swarm of Decay and Swarm of Darkness deal 15% less damage on heroic difficulty.
Rygelon
Health has been reduced by 10% – on all difficulty levels.
The damage of Dark Eruption has been reduced by 75% on heroic difficulty.
The Jailer has been nerfed repeatedly.
The Jailer
Health has been reduced by 15% on normal and heroic difficulty.
Health has been reduced by 10% on mythic difficulty.
Azerite Infusion now increases damage by 7% per stack (previously 3% per stack).
Mastery now triggers when players have 3 stacks of Tyranny (previously 2 stacks).
Decimator no longer triggers knockback on heroic and mythic difficulty.
Surging Azerite deals 15% less damage on mythic difficulty.
Surging Azerite heals Azeroth for 5% per tick (previously 4%).
The damage of Rune of Damnation has been reduced by 15% on all difficulty levels.
Rune of Mastery will now be cast 3 times during Phase 2 on mythic difficulty (previously 4 times).
Rune of Compulsion absorbs 35% less damage on heroic difficulty.
Shattering Eruption deals 20% less damage on all difficulty levels.
Chains of Torment deal 30% less damage on mythic difficulty.
Dominating Will absorbs 15% less healing on heroic and mythic difficulty.
Chainbreaker deals 20% less damage on heroic difficulty.

Why is Blizzard doing this? The reason is not that Blizzard just wants to do something good for the heroes and wants to further “casualize” everything, as is often heard. Blizzard has simply noticed that significantly fewer players were able to successfully conquer the current raid. In the official WoW forum, community manager Linxy stated a few days ago:
We are working on additional adjustments, focusing on the final fights in the mausoleum. We know that significantly fewer guilds are able to achieve the “Ahead of the Curve” achievement than in previous raid tiers, and we want to address that in the coming weeks before Season 3 ends.
Exactly these aforementioned changes will now go live and should ensure that active raid groups can still snag a success or two before the current 3rd season is already replaced by the 4th season in early August.
When do the changes go live? All nerfs will go live with the next maintenance, which is on the upcoming Wednesday, July 6, 2022. Anyone who wants to boast that they completed the current bosses “before the biggest nerf” should hurry – because time is running out.
What do you think of these changes? Is WoW becoming “too easy” again? Or is it good to adjust the bosses when significantly fewer raid groups have been able to conquer them than planned?

The new weekly box starting July 4 in Pokémon GO is known. You will receive these 2 items in the week from July 4 to July 11 for 1 coin in the event box.
Dataminers, who are dealing with the game’s content and changes, already know what items you will find in the box starting Monday, July 4.
1 Coin Box starting July 4 – Contents
What’s inside? In the box, you will find:
1 Unova Stone
1 Snivy
The box is significantly smaller in terms of the number of items compared to the 1-coin boxes of the past weeks. It seems that Niantic is still experimenting with which items players want in these packages. While there were still berries or pokéballs in the last weeks, this box focuses on two items. The new contents of the weekly box were shared by the Twitter account of the PokeMiners.
When will the box be available? Around 06:00 am on July 4, the box should be available for you. If you cannot see it, it is recommended to restart the game. After that, the package should become visible to you.
You will find the box next to the other packages in the shop.
How long is the box active? You can find the box in the shop for a week and have enough time to clear your inventory and make space for the items.
A week later, on July 11, there will be a new box bringing other contents for you. What will be inside cannot be estimated at this time.
How do you like the contents of the 1-coin event box this time? Please leave your opinion about it here on MeinMMO in the comments and let us know if the Unova Stone and Snivy are worth the 1 coin to you, or if you will save the box this week.

The birthday of Pokémon GO will be celebrated in just a few days for the 6th time. For this reason, Niantic is hosting an anniversary event. We at MeinMMO have looked into what spawns and bonuses you can look forward to and what new costumes and features await you.
What kind of event is this? On July 6, 2016, Pokémon GO celebrated its release, making it a perfect occasion for the developers to crown the birthday of the mobile game with a special anniversary event.
It will feature numerous spawns and Shinies, various bonuses, as well as new costumes and a distinctive weekend. Look forward to the following event highlights:

In Forza Horizon 5, car enthusiasts can fulfill their dreams. The racing game offers over 600 vehicles and features a variety of popular manufacturers. Those who play a lot, earn money, and successfully complete numerous races can quickly have a huge fleet. However, some cars are very rare, and only a fraction of players own them. MeinMMO shows you 5 of the rarest cars in Forza Horizon 5!
What criteria were decisive? The five cars selected by us are among the rarest vehicles in Forza Horizon 5. Since there are no official and publicly available numbers on how many players own a particular car, we determined our list based on the following criteria:
Availability in the car show
Availability in the auction house
Length of availability in the auction house
Physical limitation or binding to IRL purchases
Frequency of availability in festival playlists and the Forzathon shop (providing insights into possibly limited time availability)
All vehicles on this list cannot be purchased in the car show and are sometimes tied to orders for real-life items. Moreover, they appear – if at all – only extremely rarely in the auction house and then at very high prices.
1. Maserati 8CTF
What kind of vehicle is this? The Maserati 8CTF is a racing car from 1939 that brought great success to the Italian sports car manufacturer in motorsport and is one of the few European brands that won the 500-mile (approximately 805 km) race at the Indianapolis Oval.
How do you get the car? The Maserati 8CTF was included as a prize in Series 2 of the festival playlist of Forza Horizon 5. If you wanted to unlock the car, you had to earn 45 points in the summer season game list.
The Series 2 ran from December 9, 2021, to January 6, 2022, with the summer season reportedly ending on December 16, according to forza-fandom.com.
Since the end of Series 2, the historic car has not been part of a festival playlist or the Forzathon shop (as of June 2022). If you want to own the Maserati 8CTF in Forza Horizon 5, you have to hope for the auction house, where it is only rarely offered.
It is also unclear at what price the racing car would be offered in the auction house. During our research, we kept an eye on the auction house for several days and only encountered the Maserati in the screenshot, which was supposed to cost “only” 8,000,000 CR. It is quite possible that future sales could cost more.
Screenshot of the rare case that the Maserati 8CTF is offered at a relatively low price in the auction house of Forza Horizon 5.
2. Vauxhall Lotus Carlton
What kind of vehicle is this? The Vauxhall Lotus Carlton is a rear-wheel drive sports car from the United Kingdom. The Carlton is a joint product of the car manufacturers Lotus and Vauxhall from 1990. The latter is a subsidiary of Opel.
How do you get the car? The Carlton appeared in Series 3 of Forza Horizon 5 and was available as a milestone (45 points in the festival playlist) in the spring season. Those who did not unlock it at that time must currently hope that it will be offered in the auction house. However, this is extremely rare, just like with the Maserati 8CTF.
If the Vauxhall Lotus Carlton is sold in the auction house, the seller will most likely demand 20 million CR.
However, during our research, we did not have the luck to see the sports car even once in the auction house. For us, this is enough evidence that it is one of the rarest vehicles in Forza Horizon 5.
What kind of vehicle is this? The 2017 Ford GT is the successor to the legendary Ford GT 40, which owes its fame to winning the 24-hour race at Le Mans. With the 2017 Ford GT, the car manufacturer wanted to prove that it is still capable of producing sports cars at the highest level.
The Ford GT in the ‘OPI Edition’ is an exclusive version of the super sports car available only in Forza Horizon 5 and features not only the special paint job but also improved performance. The standard performance of the OPI Edition is in Forza Horizon 5, the performance class S1 at 900, while the standard version of the Ford GT has a standard S1-863.
Another special detail distinguishing the OPI Edition from the standard version is the possibility of swapping the engine during tuning. The OPI Edition has the Racing V6TT as an option and can be fully upgraded with this engine to reach the performance class X-999. The standard version’s maximum is only in the middle of class S2 at 953.
How do you get the car? To get the Ford GT in the OPI Edition, you have to place an order in real life to then receive a code for the car. However, the item you need to order is not an object that you can use to play Forza Horizon 5 or that is otherwise directly connected to the game.
To get the Ford GT OPI Edition, you need to order nail polish from the American nail polish manufacturer OPI Products. Specifically, it must be OPI nail polish from the Xbox Collection (via xbox.com), which is available in Germany in the product lines Infinite Shine, Nail Lacquers, and GelColor. After ordering the nail polish, you can request the code for the special vehicle.
It is not possible to buy the Ford GT OPI Edition in the car show or obtain it in a wheelspin. It has also not been included in the Forzathon shop or in a festival playlist as a reward.

4. Wuling Sunshine S
What kind of vehicle is this? The 2013 Wuling Sunshine S is a van from the Chinese car manufacturer Wuling, which has partnerships with international companies such as SAIC Motor and General Motors, selling its vehicles only in China.
How do you get the car? The Wuling Sunshine S was available as a prize in Series 4 of Forza Horizon 5 during the autumn championship of the festival playlist and could be unlocked by reaching 25 points. If you did not take this opportunity, you will have to invest a lot of CR to own the extraordinary car – if you are lucky.
The Chinese van is only rarely offered in the auction house by other players and usually costs around 20,000,000 CR. However, this did not prevent competing bidders during our research from ending the auction within a minute using the buy-it-now price.
The Wuling Sunshine S has only once been a part of a festival playlist, has not been offered in the Forzathon shop, and is also not available in the car show.

5. De Luxe Five-Window Coupé Forza Edition
What kind of vehicle is this? The Ford De Luxe is a coupé from 1932 and features standard rear-wheel drive. In the limited Forza Edition, the coupé is transformed into a so-called hot rod through special modification.
How do you get the car? The Ford De Luxe Five-Window Coupé in Forza Edition is definitely one of the rarest cars in Forza Horizon 5. You cannot buy the special hot rod in the car show, nor can you obtain it in a wheelspin. It has also not been included in the Forzathon shop or in a festival playlist as a reward.
If you want the De Luxe Five-Window Coupé Forza Edition, you must buy the limited Forza Horizon 5 Xbox controller (via xbox.com) and receive a code with the purchase. You can then redeem this code and receive the hot rod once in the game.
Each ‘Ford De Luxe Five-Window Coupé Forza Edition’ thus originates from a purchase of the FH5 controller. Therefore, there is a very limited number of vehicles in circulation, and the controller is also rarely available.
Attention: When purchasing the controller, make sure to order from an official dealer if you also want the hot rod. During our research, we read some stories from players who received the controller through a private purchase but were disappointed to find that the code was either not included or already redeemed.

If you are interested in more topics related to racing and cars on MeinMMO:
Why are other rare vehicles not included in the list? There are still several other vehicles considered extremely rare in Forza Horizon 5 that we did not include in the list for various reasons.
For example, some of the rare vehicles were frequently offered in the auction house during our research or were noticeably cheaper than the collector’s items we chose. We also decided against cars that appeared more often in the Forzathon shop and/or the festival playlist than the Maserati, Carlton, or Wuling.
What do you think of our list of the rarest cars in Forza Horizon 5? Do you think vehicles like the 2016 Honda Civic Coupé, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performance, or the 2003 Toyota Celica SS-I are missing? Feel free to let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments!

The Steam Summer Sale is only a few days away. MeinMMO gives you some tips for co-op games that you can still get for little money and that are absolutely worth it.
What kind of games are those? We present various genre games that can all be played in co-op with at least one friend.
The Steam Summer Sale has been running since June 23 and ends on July 7. So you only have a little time left to secure the games.
In the list are some of the highest-rated co-op games on Steam, but the author can personally recommend all of them. However, this is not a ranking, but an unordered list.
You start without tools after a plane crash on an island full of cannibals and strange mutants. In search of your son, you must uncover secrets and, above all, survive.
The game offers a gloomy atmosphere, crafting and building elements, and various endings in the story. It is played rather in longer but completed sessions than in a continuous game.
The offer of The Forest is ideal to prepare you for the release of the upcoming sequel. Read in our special everything about Sons of the Forest and see gameplay of the new part here:

Don’t Starve Together
Genre: Survival/Sandbox | Release: April 21, 2016 | Rating(Steam): 96 % – extremely positive | Players: 1-6 | Price: €5.09 (66 % discount) | Link: Don’t Starve Together on Steam
In the survival game Don’t Starve, you are transported to a strange world and must survive. As the name suggests, you mainly fight against hunger, but also against madness and countless monsters.
The world is procedurally generated and offers various biomes with materials for crafting and building your own base. Don’t Starve Together is the multiplayer offshoot of the popular survival game and receives constant new updates with content.
See the trailer for the latest update with pirate monkeys here:

Special features include the hand-drawn world and musical accompaniment. All characters are “spoken” by instruments, which gives the game a unique charm.
If the embedded review video does not play for you, you can find it here on YouTube:
Portal 2 is probably one of the most well-known co-op games. You play as one of two robots that must solve various puzzles and levels with their “Portal Guns”. This is seasoned with a good portion of dark humor and dystopian future visions.
In addition, you create portals in the world. The portals connect two places together, and you must use them to bring objects or yourself to otherwise unreachable parts of the levels or even to catapult yourself.
Physics is an important factor in the game, as sometimes you depend on falling into a portal with enough momentum to reach another place at the correct angle. Ideal if you like puzzle tasks.
Portal 2 is the successor to the physics-based puzzle game Portal, which even inspired the crazy shooter Splitgate. Portal is also responsible for some memes such as: “The cake is a lie”.

PayDay 2
Genre: Action/Heist | Release: August 13, 2013 | Rating(Steam): 89 % – very positive | Players: 1-4 | Price: €0.99 (90 % discount) | Link:PayDay 2 on Steam
If the heists in GTA Online are not enough for you, you should check out PayDay 2. Together with up to 3 other players, you need to plan a heist and rob a well-secured bank.
Coordination and timing are important here, as you obviously do not want the police to stop you. An escape vehicle and specialists to crack the locks are just as important as someone who can deactivate the alarm.
See here the test of PayDay 2 by the colleagues from GameStar:
PayDay 2 is considered a quite challenging co-op game. Expect to repeat the missions multiple times to win them. After all, a bank vault should not be a walk in the park.
If you are interested in the gameplay but looking for a different setting, then check out GTFO. Some former Payday developers are working on a crazy alien shooter here. GTFO is also on offer for €29.99 until July 7 (via Steam).
Terraria can simply be described as 2D-Minecraft. In a huge world, you search for valuable materials, build your own home and equipment. You also have to defend your home against waves of enemies and even giant bosses.
The survival sandbox game plays with your urge to explore and encourages you to delve deeper into the world and discover new areas. NPCs can also appear from time to time, who can sell you useful items if you host them.
Terraria offers not only a co-op mode but also PvP. If you want, you can fight with your friends for control of your world instead of exploring and building peacefully together.
Bonus: Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition
Genre: Tactical RPG | Release: September 14, 2017 | Rating(Steam): 95 % – extremely positive | Players: 1-4 | Price: €17.99 (60 % discount) | Link:Divinity: Original Sin 2 on Steam
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a bit more expensive than the games presented here but still deserves a mention. After all, it is one of our top 25 co-op games. The story-driven RPG is heavily based on Dungeons & Dragons.
Your party consists of up to 4 characters with different classes. The special thing about the game is the turn-based combat system. You do not fight “live” against your opponents but plan your move. Movements, spells, and attacks are limited by points, and an initiative determines the order of the fighters. This creates a tactical factor.
These are the improvements of the Enhanced Edition:
Divinity: Original Sin 2, however, stands out primarily with its stories. Each companion has its own story and motivation. If you do not play in a full player group, the NPCs can even be won over as romance.
Interestingly, the developers are already working on the next title in a similar style: Baldur’s Gate 3, which even has an official D&D license:
At the beginning of Destiny, there were few options to get good loot. By accident, however, Guardians discovered that a measly cave could drop legendary and also exotic loot. Do you remember the Loot Cave?
What is the Loot Cave? In Destiny 1, there was a cave that Guardians dubbed the “Loot Cave.” Players accidentally discovered at that time that Hive enemies would stream out of the aforementioned cave over and over again.
Basically, that sounds like nothing special, but at the time, it was a blessing. No matter what activity you were engaged in, the loot was abysmal. You could try your hardest, but the chances of getting legendary or exotic gear were minimal back then.
That’s why players named this cave. It was the original form of effective farming in Destiny.
Guardians stared for hundreds of hours into a measly cave
Why did players use this method? Many new players from Destiny 2 do not know this at all when they are not buried under loot. After almost every strike, Gambit, or Crucible match, legendary engrams are waiting for you, but in Destiny 1, they were considered a real rarity.
The entrance to the Loot Cave
Even exotic engrams could sometimes only be obtained after hundreds of hours. However, once you got one in your hands, the joy was indescribably huge. To speed up the process and finally get rare loot quickly, the accidentally discovered “Loot Cave” was super practical.
Unlimited Hive enemies would phase out from the cave, and the Guardians just had to stand around farming for hours to get the coveted loot.
How did this method work? It was as simple as it was monotonous. You simply positioned yourself right across from the cave with a weapon and shot down all the enemies that came into your view. You repeated this as often as you wanted.
Wasn’t it boring after a while? Surprisingly, quite the opposite. Players actually had fun blasting the same enemies for hours and finally getting loot they had worked hard for.
But note: Destiny 1 cannot be compared to Destiny 2 in this case. Nowadays, no one, except for catalysts, would sit in front of a cave and kill the same enemies for hours.
The loot is unfortunately thrown at you in Destiny 2, and exotics are no longer as rare as they used to be. Times have changed, but it is always interesting to see how Guardians earned their cool loot back then.
Can I still visit the cave in Destiny 2? With the return of the Cosmodrome, the Loot Cave has also returned. You can find it in the same place in the Cosmodrome. Even the speaking remains of the dead Hive have been implemented. These were added in Destiny 1 to remember the Loot Cave and the countless hours farmed.
A dungeon has also been dedicated to the famous cave. “Sands of Avarice” is its name and takes you on a journey filled with greed and thirst for loot. However, the dungeon is included in the 30th anniversary package from Bungie and must be purchased beforehand.
Do you remember the Loot Cave, and if so, did you spend hours trying to get your first legendary or even exotic piece of equipment? Please let us know in the comments if you experienced the cave cult in Destiny 1 yourself.

What can come out of the editor can be seen in this screenshot. I decided on a shark, gave it a corner in the head, spread the eyes as far apart as possible, and made the legs as small as possible:
Aside from this editor, the game offers typical MMORPG fare:
There is a classless system, so armor and weapons determine your playstyle
You follow a story that is told through the main quest
There is an open game world with multiple continents without loading screens
There are collection and crafting systems, through which you can also actively level up – like in New World
You can sprint with Shift and jump with Space
You can tame and cross different animal species to create new monsters
The game is funded through a real-money shop with cosmetic content, XP buffs, boxes with materials, and automatic completions of daily quests, as well as an additional purchasable battle pass.
Chimeraland is coming to Steam in Summer 2022 – Pre-registration is already underway
When is the game coming out for us? There is no concrete release date yet. However, the developers have now revealed that Chimeraland is set to be released in Europe, North America, and on Steam in the summer.
You can already pre-register and the more players do, the more rewards there will be. Additionally, the developers are gearing up for the release with a new trailer.

Is the download worth it? It depends. I had a lot of fun with the character editor, and it is a clear recommendation. The gameplay itself, however, resembles more of an indie survival MMO and cannot compete with classic AAA games like WoW or ESO.
However, since the game is free, you don’t have much to lose aside from a little time. However, you will be able to play Chimeraland only in English and not in German.
If you are waiting for a new, modern MMORPG in 2022, you will find it in this list:
On Saturday, July 2, the famous YouTuber and Twitch streamer Trymacs hosted a football event. He assembled a team himself and played against Knossi and his team. The match was a huge success, both in terms of numbers and overall entertainment value.
What kind of event was it? After Trymacs’ big boxing event, there was a new sports event on Saturday. The two Twitch streamers Trymacs and Knossi each assembled a football team and then faced off against each other in a match.
In the teams were other streamers and YouTubers, celebrities like Steven Gätjen and football players from the local league.
The game turned into a huge spectacle, also because the streamers had thought up some special rules:
Three halves were played, each lasting 30 minutes. This gave the streamers a bit more break during the match.
During the breaks, there were various challenges. For example, 3 celebrities played against 50 kids for a short time, and the celebrities were mercilessly outplayed.
Despite a clear victory, there was a penalty shootout at the end – just for fun.
Knossi and his team managed to win the regular match, while the penalty shootout went to Trymacs. Both have already promised a rematch, which is to take place in winter.
Who participated in the event? In addition to streamers Trymacs and Knossi, other well-known personalities from Twitch and YouTube were present, including EilasN97 – the currently largest German streamer, MontanaBlack, Aaron Troschke, Inscope21, and UnsympathischTV.
Several celebrities were also present, including Steven Gätjen, Pietro Lombardi, Gustav Schäfer (the drummer of Tokio Hotel), and Olivia Jones.
You can watch the recording of the event here:

How did the match go? The ball was kicked off at 17:04. The game was commented on by Robby Hunke, who also works for Sportschau.
For long stretches, the match was mainly carried by the local league players. They were significantly fitter and technically stronger than the YouTubers, streamers, and celebrities.
However, Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris stood out positively in goal for Trymacs. He had several good saves, so he was also referred to as Marcel Neuer in the Twitch chat. Nevertheless, he could not prevent his team’s loss.
Trymacs (left) and Knossi (right) during the coin toss.
Although Trymacs’ team took the lead first and maintained it through the first halftime break. But in the second half, the equalizer and the lead for Knossi’s team were achieved. In the end, Knossi and his team won 4:2.
However, there were also unpleasant scenes during the game:
Still in the first half, Filip Pavlović got injured. He sustained a muscle tear in his thigh.
In the second half, Steven Gätjen got hurt. He injured his ankle, but nothing was broken.
In the third half, Paul from Team Trymacs got injured. He sustained a shoulder injury.
What challenges were there? During the first half-time break, there was a crossbar challenge. An audience member won together with Pietro Lombardi and received a jersey signed by Luka Modrić.
During the second half-time break, Knossi, Dave, and Fritz Meinecke played against 50 kids. The kids won clearly with 7:0.
At the end of the match, there was also a penalty shootout. The team of Trymacs won it 4:1.
How was the event received? During the football game, over 140,000 people watched simultaneously on Trymacs’ Twitch channel at peak time. This made the event the livestream with the most viewers worldwide on Saturday. It also surpassed shoutcasts for the LEC in LoL, Rocket League, and Summer Games Done Quick.
Over the entire four hours, the event averaged over 104,000 viewers (via Sullygnome). This is also rank 1 on Saturday and rank 3 in the last 7 days. Later, Knossi also hosted an “Aftershow Stream” with 68,550 peak viewers.
Additionally, there were hundreds of spectators on site and a lot of positive feedback in the comments. So it’s hardly surprising that both streamers are already planning a rematch.
Hundreds of fans were present in the stands.
For Trymacs, however, the topic of football is taking on even larger dimensions. His team is supposed to regularly play in the Kreisklasse B, with mostly the same squad. He has already promised vlogs from the training and livestreams of the matches.
What do you think about this event? Did you follow the match or are you not interested in football?
Besides the football event, Trymacs is currently also doing great things in the game Clash of Clans. Because he is currently destroying it with his community:
Pretty much every gamer uses Discord. However, scammers are now using a new trick to steal your account. MeinMMO explains how you can protect yourself.
The most important points at a glance
Currently, messages are circulating on Discord claiming that you have supposedly been “exposed”. You will receive an invitation to a server.
The messages can even come from supposed friends.
Under no circumstances should you click on the corresponding links. Change your password immediately instead.
What kind of trick is this? As some users report on Twitter, they receive private messages from their friends’ accounts. According to these, perverse pictures or information about them are circulating.
They are said to have sent naked pictures of themselves and are now being exposed on a public Discord to defame them. An invitation to the respective Discord is also attached.
The respective contact will then block you directly because they “don’t want anything to do with you.” A click on the link leads you to the server, and you will reportedly be asked for authentication. You should definitely not do that.
Verification steals your password, hacks your account
That’s why it’s dangerous: As one user reports, his account was stolen after authentication. A stranger logged in to his account, sent further scam messages, and subsequently blocked people.
Corresponding messages can therefore also come from friends’ and acquaintances’ accounts and not just from strangers on a server. Since the contact blocks you directly, you can’t at least ask them via Discord whether the message is actually serious.
Furthermore, the links and the respective servers often differ, making it impossible to warn against just one specific server. Therefore, this new trick poses particularly high risk potential.
This is how you can protect yourself: If you receive messages that are phrased similarly, you should definitely not click the link. Notify your respective friends outside of Discord.
If you are affected yourself, you should quickly change your password and possibly contact Discord support. A good way to create secure passwords is through password managers, so you don’t forget them, which can easily lead to problems:
Exactly 10 years ago, The Secret World was released, an MMORPG like no other since. A completely new experience that MeinMMO editor Benedict Grothaus extensively played back then. For the anniversary, he wants to take another look – and hopefully can handle it.
On July 3, 2012, The Secret World was released. My account for it is even a few weeks older, as you could sign up earlier and secure some advantages. The MMORPG completely captivated me back then.
In The Secret World, I play in an alternate reality with Lovecraftian flair. Monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos are real, just like magic and all sorts of conspiracy theories.
As a player, I can join the famous Illuminati, the Templar Order, or the Asian “Dragons”. Strange things happen all over the world, and I must uncover them together with my companions.
In this, I am one of the chosen ones who cannot easily die, as glowing “bees” bring me back to life repeatedly. Dark, bizarre, spooky, and with a good dose of dry humor. Exactly my kind of game!
That was my Templar back then. I miss her.
So why is it a mistake to install the game now? Quite simply: because it failed and for good reasons. I know that nostalgia will drive me to play again. But I also know that I will be bitterly disappointed.
The Secret World is a dream for all nerds, and that was the problem
The fresh approach to the genre, the completely unspent setting, and the MMORPG market that wasn’t so flooded back then were enticing for many gamers, including a group of friends and myself.
The Secret World had – or has, as it’s still running – many mechanics that are absolutely unusual for the MMORPG genre.
But exactly these factors ensured that the game never really reached the broad masses.
One of the biggest innovations of The Secret World was the “Investigation” quests. With just a few clues, I must uncover a secret, discovering more and more hints that lead to the solution – like a real investigator.
I follow trails, speak to NPCs, or – which is absolutely wild – I have to use the fully functional web browser integrated into the game to access company websites created specifically for The Secret World. Even NPCs have their own Twitter accounts.
Such a thing has never happened before. I’m not talking about looking up a quest on wowhead. I actually had to check which employees were at a company because I was supposed to search for their names in some secret files.
Very cool for someone who wants to immerse themselves in the world. Super annoying if you just want to play casually. Because these quests are also the ones with the absolute best rewards. But no one wants to puzzle for so long for XP and a new weapon…
The “Kingsmouth Code” is the first investigator mission you receive. Here is a walkthrough of the quest:

Weapons were also a pretty cool idea. For healing, you wielded an assault rifle or claws, because what else would make sense, right? Chaos magic is there for tanking and you deal damage with pistols of course.
For me, as a relatively young gamer at 19, it was all really cool. A change from WoW, an interesting world. I played intensely for half a year.
It was damn cool to join the Templars or see what the Illuminati headquarters looks like. How the secret organizations operate to lead supposed conspiracy theorists around by the nose.
Or simply to dive into a world where monsters from Lovecraft are real. What would well-known cities look like if they were suddenly overrun by disgusting creatures? An enticing thought.
But eventually, something was simply missing. Today I know what caused the failure of The Secret World.
Although The Secret World never intended to

In June 2021, the first alpha of Ashes of Creation took place. At that time, many were disillusioned, especially because the combat and animations did not look impressive. However, the developers have now shown a new video of the combat system. This gives many hope.
What was the main criticism of the alpha? In Alpha 1, Ashes of Creation felt very unfinished. However, the developers also emphasized that this is a “real alpha” and not a promotional event for the game. Criticism included the following:
What is new now? In a livestream, the developers presented their latest adjustments to the combat system. They showcased combat with melee weapons, including attacks with a two-handed sword and daggers.
These combats were very well received by the players. Especially the mobility and the improved animations are being praised. However, there is also criticism.

What do players say about the combat? Under the video on YouTube, many positive comments are gathering:
PhilTCasual is excited: “The combat update was exciting! I’m a big fan of the direction this game is taking.”
Deserteagle writes: “For a while, I was wondering if Ashes of Creation would only be ‘okay’ in combat and have great systems. But after the update, I feel like you all really nailed the combat. So, good job to the team, it looked great overall, especially compared to what came before.”
Laydra writes: “This is a massive improvement to melee combat from a year ago, it looks really good.”
The user Highlander also praises the changes but already has improvement suggestions: “It’s finally starting to look good. I think when it comes to giving the combat more weight, it’s also important how the target reacts when hit. If the target’s animation does not change or respond on impact, a large part of the ‘combat feeling’ is lost.”
This is also a common point of criticism from other users under the video and on reddit. The attacks still lack some heft.
What do the developers say about the initial reactions? Steven Sharif, the head of Ashes of Creation, already mentioned in a comment on YouTube that this is the first of many major changes to the combat system before the launch of Alpha 2.
Margaret Krohn, the Community Manager, also emphasized under the livestream recording that this will not be the only adjustment to the combat system. She mentions again that the MMORPG relies on a hybrid combat system, where you can switch between action and tab-targeting. This system still needs time to mature completely.
What do you think about the adjustments shown to the combat system? Do you like the adjustments, or does the game still look too unfinished?
For anyone wanting general more information on Ashes of Creation and the current status of the game, everything is summarized here:
Coughing, sneezing, smacking noises, keyboard clattering, noise from traffic – all of that is annoying in every Discord chat and distracts the team. MeinMMO author Marko Jevtic definitely does not want to be one of those annoying teammates who make the voice chat noticeable with disturbing or even disgusting noises. His solution to this is as unconventional as it is effective.
No one likes teammates who misuse their microphone. For us, they are among the most annoying and worst people to play shooters with. But you can’t completely prevent this, at least not if the microphone is on all the time.
Even the quietest gamers have to clear their throat, cough, or sneeze sometimes. Occasionally, one may accidentally smack, take a sip from the coffee cup too close to the microphone, or sniffle more often during pollen season. Perhaps one also has a really satisfying but loud keyboard that annoys your friends quite a bit.
That’s all human, but it doesn’t have to be. Because during an intense raid or a tight team deathmatch, no one prefers to hear the bodily noises of teammates over the digital footsteps of enemies. However, constantly turning off the microphone is impractical.
Only a push-to-talk button can help. But pressing this while doing the keyboard-twisting that you have to in some games is not that easy. That’s why I use a device just for this purpose, which uses the often lazy lower half of my body. Under my PC desk sits a foot pedal, and only when I step on it, can you hear me.
I specifically recommend the foot pedal from the well-known streamer brand Elgato, called the Stream Deck Pedal:
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
Thanks to Elgato foot pedal, I can only be heard when I want to
What are the advantages of a foot pedal? What many gamers overlook is that there are two helpful things dangling down from your gaming chair that can be used. Besides the impatient bouncing of your feet, you’re probably not using your legs while gaming at all. But you can change that, and I recommend doing so.
The Elgato Stream Deck Pedal connects easily with USB-C to your PC, sits on the floor under your desk, and with that, you’ve done most of the work. All you have to do next is assign push-to-talk to one of the 3 buttons on the foot pedal.
All settings are simple and completely straightforward via the Elgato software. You just drag the desired function onto the desired button.
The Elgato foot pedal is inconspicuous but very practical and versatile
How does this help with gameplay? Push-to-talk is actually extremely clever but often very impractical. With this setting, the voice chat only activates while you are actively pressing the assigned button. If your finger isn’t pressing that button, you’re silent as a fish. But try finding space for that button on the keyboard. That’s why the foot pedal comes into play.
After all, you want to run, switch weapons, fire skills, reload, jump, crouch, slide-cancel, ping, or whatever else you’re doing in your games. You also don’t need to be an experienced drummer to operate this thing while you’re gaming.
What I personally find even more practical right now is the opposite, which is push-to-mute. The microphone then deactivates when I step on the pedal. This way, I can also lean back in my chair when making small talk and only step on it when I need to cough.
How to set up the pedal properly – and a mistake you should avoid
I’ve set up my own Elgato Stream Deck Pedal:
Left Button:Alt-Tab – This is practical when I, for example, play Elden Ring with the controller and want to switch windows without leaning forward to the keyboard.
Middle Button:Push-to-Mute – This allows me to quickly and easily mute my microphone when I don’t want to be heard (for example, when I have to cough).
Right Button:Screenshot – Even during fast-paced action, I can take a screenshot right in the middle with my foot. Especially practical for my job when I want to capture gameplay images for articles.
These are my settings with the Elgato Stream Deck Pedal
No matter how I finally set it up: The teammates thank me for ‘talking with my feet’, as no one likes to hear those unnecessary noise disturbances. Especially not when the raid boss is putting a lot of stress on. And I feel more comfortable because I know I’m not annoying anyone.
But of course, you can also set up the pedal differently. There are some players from Rainbow Six: Siege who have assigned leaning around corners to the pedals. This way, they can keep their fingers free for WASD while still looking around a wall.
Avoid this mistake: I still have a small recommendation that comes from a funny anecdote from Reddit – operate the pedal with your left foot, not your right. A poor guy on Reddit had the idea of the foot pedal years ago and got into the habit of only talking when he pressed a pedal with his right foot.

That was a great idea until he was behind the wheel of a car, waiting at a traffic light, and his mother in the passenger seat asked him a question. Instinctively, he pressed the pedal with his right foot – and unfortunately this time the gas pedal in an automatic car. He rammed the car in front of him and was speechless despite pressing the pedal. Therefore: If you drive cars, place the Elgato in front of your left foot.
Regardless of this Reddit story: What do you think of a foot pedal as a solution for gamers? Do you find it practical or completely stupid? Have you perhaps been using such a foot pedal on your gaming PC for a while? Let us know in the comments.

PSO 2: New Genesis is completely Free2Play, but does offer a cash shop. It does not build on its predecessors aside from the name, so you can play without any prior knowledge.
What’s new: Now there’s good news. The developer studio SEGA announced that the game Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is set to be released for the Playstation 4 on August 31.

How successful was Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis on Steam? The player numbers for the MMORPG speak for the game. In June 2022, there were still 3,271 players concurrently on Steam (via steamcharts.com).
Since the release of the game on Steam on August 5, 2020, the average number of players has been around two to sixteen thousand people. The figures from Xbox are not included, as the corresponding data is missing.
Recent reviews of PSO 2: New Genesis on Steam are balanced. Overall, of the 19,541 reviews, most are positive, with 72% (as of 02.07.2022, via Steam).

Who is Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis interesting for? PSO 2 New Genesis aims to attract fans of PSO 2 but is also suitable for anyone who enjoys MMORPGs.
Especially fans of anime games and complex combo mechanics may enjoy the game. But you should not have a problem with having to grind a bit for your gear.
Mario Gomez is actually the epitome of a goal scorer. But now the FUT Hero has received a card in FIFA 22 that forces him to prevent goals. Crazy, but not bad at all!
Who is Mario Gomez? Mario Gomez is likely still a name known to most football fans, as his career end was not long ago. As an active player, he chased goals first for VfB Stuttgart, then for Bayern, Florence, Besiktas Istanbul, Wolfsburg, and finally Stuttgart again.
He was known as a dangerous scorer, who primarily scored in the penalty area with a quick movement, a surprising header, or a powerful shot. He also went for goals in the national team – but unfortunately, he had his share of bad days there. So he was often haunted by images of missed big chances.
“Preventing goals,” that is not something a striker likes to do. But in FIFA 22, Gomez now has a card that is meant to allow him to do just that.
Shapeshifter Mario Gomez gets a whole new role
What kind of card is this? Currently, the “Shapeshifters” event is taking place, where various players receive entirely new positions and changed attributes. The new “Team 3” also included some of the “FUT Heroes”, meaning players from days gone by. One of them is Gomez.
And those who used to joke that Gomez is more likely to prevent goals than to score them can now look forward to a new card: Here is Mario Gomez as a center-back.
How strong is Gomez as a defender
This is how good the card is: In fact, Gomez has received all the attributes you would expect from a really good center-back. He has 90 Pace, 95 Defense, and 93 Physical. Moreover, he still has his high shooting value of 91, which distinguishes him as a striker.
Gomez, who sometimes appears a bit sluggish as a striker in FIFA 22, could actually fill the center-back position perfectly with these attributes. And: His card will also be changed to Serie A. Thus, he fits perfectly with the currently perhaps best center-back in FIFA 22.
A combination of Chiellini and Gomez could indeed be really difficult for opposing strikers to overcome. Additionally, he provides a good connection to Bundesliga cards – and there are also some in the new team.
FIFA 22 seems to want to increase the fun factor in Ultimate Team with crazy cards. Is this card for you, or are you looking for other candidates for your team? Feel free to leave us a comment.
With a seemingly harmless tweet, the famous publisher Electronic Arts (Apex Legends, Battlefield, FIFA) has made the internet its enemy. Less than 140 characters were enough to leave even its own employees speechless.
The official Twitter account of EA has posted a tweet that wanted to follow a trend. In the form of a seemingly harmless meme, an employee tweeted: “They are a 10, but only like singleplayer games.”
The “10” refers to a rating of someone’s attractiveness. On a scale from 1-10, people rate individuals. In the corresponding meme, they find the perfect partner, a 10, but have a flaw that ruins everything. In this case: singleplayer games.
EA has already caused quite a stir among singleplayer fans with the lack of a campaign in Battlefield 2042. Now the latest tweet is receiving heavy mockery, even from employees of studios that are part of EA.
Battlefield 2042 is considered an absolute disaster. The studio is supposed to be rescued with the first season:

This is how the internet reacts: The tweet collected tens of thousands of replies, quotes, and retweets in no time. Among them are well-known names like journalist Paul Tassi, streamers JackSepticEye and Gladd, or the well-known YouTuber VideogameDunkey.
While there were mainly cynical responses or even questionable comments such as: “How are your tweets actually worse than your games?”, Vince Zampella, the head of Respawn Entertainment (featured image), only reacted with an emote showing a person facepalming:

Respawn develops Apex Legends, the popular battle royale, which is published by EA. Apex Legends was a huge hit upon its surprising release in 2019 and is still widely played.
The developers support it with new seasons and regularly release new videos with story content:

Zampella is not the only developer at EA who is upset about the tweet:
The writer of Dragon Age, David Gaider, says: “As usual, EA jumps on a trend, totally misses the mark, and slaps itself in the face.”
This is how EA reacts: In response to the criticism, EA’s Twitter account spoke up again. In a new tweet, it states: “Mockery well deserved. We accept the defeat because singleplayer games would actually make someone an 11.”
However, the attempted rescue only works to a limited extent. Many singleplayer games have a large fan base, and even many multiplayer games and MMOs are often enjoyed solo. We even have a whole list of games that are suitable for solo play:
