Through a small shoutout in one of his YouTube streams, Tim “TimTheTatman” Betar (32) changed the life of the streamer Feegoe (17), who primarily plays Call of Duty: Warzone. Feegoe received over 1,000 subs and was brought to tears.
Who is TimTheTatman? TimTheTatman is a well-known content creator. He originally made a name for himself on Twitch and gained numerous followers, but then switched to the YouTube platform.
Many of his Twitch followers followed him to the new platform. On YouTube, he now has around 4.57 million subscribers (as of 29.06.2022, via YouTube).
On June 23, TimTheTatman used his great popularity to support the smaller content creator Feegoe through the Prime subs of his audience.

Prime Gaming, the secret behind Twitch’s success
“Give him your primes. Does anyone have a Prime sub left?”
What happened in TimTheTatman’s stream? In his stream, TimTheTatman gave a shoutout to Feegoe. TimTheTatman had watched some games of the gaming YouTuber, in which he played CoD: Warzone.
Impressed by Feegoe’s skills, he made a call that would help the Warzone streamer tremendously in his career:
Many of you are probably from Twitch and many of you probably have unused Prime subs. Let’s take a look […] give him your primes. Does anyone have a Prime sub left? Because obviously, I’m here now [on YouTube], you know what I mean. Who has a Prime sub?
Completely surprised, TimTheTatman reacted to the number of unused Twitch Prime subs from his community.
The viewers listened to TimTheTatman’s recommendation and went to Feegoe’s Twitch channel. In his chat, they wrote supportive words. Feegoe was so happy that he was close to tears.
What effect did TimTheTatman’s call have? While Feegoe previously had less than 200 viewers, the number skyrocketed.
With 14,566 followers (as of 29.06.2022, via Twitch), Feegoe’s channel has grown significantly. And not just the channel. Thanks to TimTheTatman’s call and the more than 1,000 subs, the teenager earned approximately 2,000 Euros.
Even if it was just a small gesture from TimTheTatman, it was enough to fundamentally change Feegoe’s career. Why TimTheTatman switched from Twitch to YouTube, you can read about it here.

YouTuber Ryan Trahan is one of the rising new stars in the USA. With a 30-day event, he aims to support a charitable organization: However, his most diligent donor turned out to be a fraud.
What’s going on in the fight against hunger?
YouTuber Ryan Trahan (23) is a rising star on YouTube. Although he is only 23, he has been posting videos on the platform for 10 years. At the beginning of his career, he shared tips for athletics. Nowadays, Trahan is known for his vlogs, challenges, and lifestyle videos. He is part of MrBeast’s circle.
In a new challenge, Trahan starts with a penny and wants to make his way through the USA in 30 days by trading. He aims to get from Los Angeles to North Carolina with the penny: That’s over 4,000 kilometers. Upon arrival, he plans to ceremoniously hand over the penny to MrBeast.
The trip is primarily intended as a “charity run” for the charitable organization Feeding America, which corresponds to our “food bank.” The event is going great: He has already raised $1.36 million with his “1 Penny. 1 Million Meals” event, but there is trouble.
In the live stream, there are ongoing controversies:

What happened when Twitch appointed a woman to the security council who behaved like a deer
Nice man announces in video call he will donate $100,000 – Is celebrated
What caused the excitement? There were some prominent donations at the event: MrBeast himself donated $50,000 to reset Trahan’s progress so that he falls back to $1 from his earned money.
However, a man named “Paul Dodds,” who had just started on YouTube, proved to be a super donor.

Paul Doss was at the top of the list of super donors
Dodds had already climbed to the top of the top donors with $50,000 when Trahan reported on day 11 of the event: “Top donor Paul Dodds just contacted me and asked if I have time for a conversation. So I will speak with him shortly.”
In a video call, Dodds pledged to donate another $100,000 and seemingly did so later.
Trahan praised Dodds extensively as the “kindest person on the platform.”
Name only displayed blurred – Donations were apparently not real
Here’s how it continued: This good mood was over just a few days later.
Paul Dodds’ name suddenly appeared blurred in the lists of top donors – and this was the case across all videos on the channel.
Moreover, Dodds had now deleted his entire appearance from social media.
The name “Paul Dodds” was made unrecognizable in the videos afterwards.
This is now the discussion: There is still no confirmation about what exactly happened. However, many believe on YouTube that the donations from Dodds were a scam to gain attention and positive feedback in the meantime. Apparently, the donations were charged back or otherwise turned out to be false.
Some are even saying on Twitter that the man is a known fraudster who has previously scammed people with other frauds.
Trahan has not yet made a statement about the matter: He apparently wants to keep his good mood and his great event from being ruined by such a situation.
The phone gets hot while playing, what to do? If you have ever wondered about this, then check out our guide. We present you with half a dozen tips on what you can do against high temperatures on your phone.
For smartphones, there are exciting games for your phone, such as Diablo Immortal or Genshin Impact. However, if you play on your phone, you will notice that your device will eventually get hot. So, what can you do against high temperatures?
MeinMMO presents you with a handful of tips that you should consider when you want to play on your phone for a longer time.
Reduce the display brightness
High brightness not only drains a lot of battery but also increases temperatures. If you are primarily indoors and playing on the couch or in your bed, lower the brightness.
Also, turn off adaptive brightness. The sensor behind it consumes energy and keeps your phone warm over time.
By lowering the brightness, you not only reduce the temperature of your phone but also decrease power consumption. More tips on how you can save energy can be found here:
Your phone does not like direct sunlight or high outdoor temperatures. If you sit outside in the sun and play, you expose your phone to high temperatures. The phone may not process those additional temperatures well.
If you really want to play outside, sit in the shade or at a cool place. Your phone will appreciate it.
Don’t play while your phone is charging
When you charge your phone, it and the battery get warm. This is normal and can’t be avoided. Manufacturers often point out in the device manual that heat is generated while charging.
If you play at the same time, you cause high temperatures in your device. Therefore, you should definitely avoid playing and charging your phone at the same time.
Instead, use the time when your phone is charging for meaningful activities and give the phone time to charge.
Take the phone out of its case
Basically, a case or cover should protect your device from external damage like scratches. If your phone slips out of your pocket or you are not careful, such a case can save a lot of money.
However, during active gaming, such a case is only partially helpful. Many cases are made of thick plastic, leather, or other thick materials. While optimal for protecting your hardware, these are only partially suitable for “breathing” or active heat exchange.
Some cases are designed in a way that they neither allow fresh air to your phone nor let warm air escape. The cases trap the heat and block ventilation. Without adequate ventilation, the phone heats up quickly.
Uninstall apps that supposedly cool your phone
There are plenty of apps for both Android and iOS that promise cooling for your phone. They look appealing and promise a lot but are never useful. Instead, such “cooling” apps steal your personal data.
Therefore, it’s best to uninstall such apps and stay away from them. Additionally, such programs mainly disable apps in the background, which is not advisable and burdens your device more than it helps:
If you are playing on your phone and feel your fingers burning, you can also lower the graphics settings on your phone. Many mobile games offer settings just like PC games.
While you may lose some quality and the game may not look as pretty, you gain some performance and, in the best case, lower temperatures. Additionally, you can also lower the brightness as explained above. While it won’t improve your gaming skills, your phone will appreciate it.
If your phone is exposed to high loads continuously, it is not necessarily healthy for your smartphone in the long term.
The longer you play on your phone without taking a break, the hotter the device gets. Therefore, take breaks now and then so that your smartphone can cool down a bit. Use the time to eat, drink, or enjoy an ice cream on a warm day. This way, you give both your phone and yourself a few pleasant minutes of relaxation.
Accessories for your phone: If you are on the go for a long time or going on a long trip to catch Pokémon outside, take the right accessories with you! In our article, we present to you the best power banks you can buy for your phone.
Today, June 30, the big expansion Outriders Worldslayer is available for everyone. But is it worth buying? In a brief check from MeinMMO, you can find out – no matter whether you’ve already dived into the base game or want to start fresh.
What is Outriders Worldslayer? Outriders Worldslayer is the big expansion of Outriders, a brutal loot shooter that was released about 1 year ago.
The base game initially struggled with damn annoying problems and bugs, and disappointed players in the endgame. Over the months, the developers from People Can Fly have steadily improved the game, and the latest big update New Horizon has addressed the community’s biggest issues.
For this reason, the game currently stands at a balanced rating on Steam (64% positive based on over 42,500 votes, as of June 30, 2022), but has received mostly positive reviews over the last 30 days (77% after over 500 votes, as of June 30, 2022).
With the big expansion Worldslayer, Outriders aims to take it even further, making the game overall bigger and offering new endgame content.
This video offers you a detailed look at everything Outriders Worldslayer has to offer:
Start video
Spotlight zur Enthüllung von Outriders Worldslayer
These are the main features of the expansion:
The story campaign continues, with the new villain Ereshkigal.
The story lasts between 4 and 8 hours, plus the new endgame.
New “apocalypse items” have an additional mod slot, making these weapons and armor even stronger.
There are 2 new upgrade paths for your class that can significantly enhance your character.
A new difficulty system: apocalypse ranks replace world tiers and go up to level 40.
A new endgame activity that is clearly designed for 3-player teams.
There are many new enemy types and a lot of new loot.
In our preview test, we found that while Worldslayer does not reinvent the wheel, it clearly improves the game. However, the standard price of nearly €40 seems a bit high for what is offered in our view:
Is Outriders Worldslayer worth it for me? To help you make a quick decision, we have prepared 10 statements for you. If you can answer 8 of them with “Yes,” Outriders Worldslayer is definitely interesting for you. If you remain uncertain afterward or can only agree with a few statements, there is an overview below of what to expect in Outriders Worldslayer.
I have played Outriders and really liked it, or I have never played it despite great interest.
I love brutal shooters where I have to play aggressively.
I enjoy loot shooters like Destiny, Borderlands, The Division.
I have a lot of fun grinding for better gear – even if it means playing the same missions over and over.
PvP isn’t important to me.
I prefer to play endgame activities in a team rather than solo.
I love it when games get progressively harder.
The darker, more brutal, and meaner a story is, the more fun I have with it.
I enjoy playing several different classes in my RPGs.
As long as a game is fun, I don’t care how much it costs or how long it takes.
So, how does it look? How many of these statements apply to you? If you answered “Yes” at least 8 out of 10 times, you can safely go for Outriders Worldslayer.
If you want to learn more about the game, here is the detailed assessment from our colleagues at GameStar:
Outriders Worldslayer – How does it play?
How does Outriders Worldslayer play? Anyone who has played Outriders knows exactly what to expect. Because the expansion Worldslayer changes very little of the solid foundation of the base game:
Outriders Worldslayer is a loot shooter played from a third-person perspective.
You have a choice of 4 classes, each of which can equip 3 skills simultaneously. There is no new class with Worldslayer, nor new skills.
The Pyromancer fights at medium range with fire spells and AoE attacks.
The Assassin relies on sneaky melee combat, teleports, and invisibility while slowing down enemies.
The Devastator is a melee tank who dives into the fray with shotguns, bleeding damage, and high defense.
The Technomancer is the ranged fighter who focuses on turrets, poison, and ice damage.
Each class heals by dealing damage in their own way. The Pyromancer must kill burning enemies, while the Technomancer heals from any damage dealt to enemies.
This ensures that you have to play aggressively almost nonstop. There is “Gears of War”-style cover in battle arenas, but it is more intended for the enemies than for you.
The game primarily focuses on cooperative play but can largely be played solo as well. The newest endgame can only be completed solo with the best builds.
PvP is still not present in Outriders.
With Worldslayer, you have even more options to perfect your build thanks to more mod slots and additional skill trees.
The difficulty of the game scales continuously, depending on your world tier or apocalypse rank. Your enemies deal more damage and you take less, but the chance for god loot increases in turn.
The story in Worldslayer is, as in the base game, dark, brutal, and uncompromising.
Outriders Worldslayer – Is it worth it?
Why should I check out Outriders Worldslayer? If you enjoy uncompromising shooter action where you have to play aggressively nonstop, Outriders Worldslayer is a feast. Because whether in the story or gameplay: this game is brutally aggressive and uncompromising throughout.
The focus of Outriders, even with Worldslayer, is the “power fantasy” of stepping into the shoes of a godlike mega-destroyer. The developers at People Can Fly clearly understand what makes their loot shooter enjoyable: large magazines, bigger explosions, and gigantic damage values. If you enjoy this, you will be well served with Worldslayer.
Pro
Many new content improves the base game
More options to perfect your builds
New enemies and regions are diverse and fun
You can jump straight into the expansion
Contra
No new classes or abilities
Does not really play differently
New campaign lasts only about 4 – 8 hours, has no side quests
Relatively steep price of €40
When is Outriders Worldslayer not worth it? If you have already played the base game and were not really convinced, then the expansion will not convince you either. Because really, nothing has changed with Worldslayer – it’s more of the old, but bigger and better.
Solo players will be happy with the campaign, but the endgame is clearly designed for a full 3-player team. Only the very best gamers with the best gear can survive solo.
And even if the expansion is fun: with the short campaign and few fundamental changes, €40 is a steep price. If you are not already 100% convinced that you need more Outriders immediately, you should wait for a discount.
If you haven’t touched Outriders since its release, you should also know that the loot system has changed drastically. Here is what has happened:

Call of Duty: Warzone has been thwarting cheaters for months and has truly trolled them, but recently there have been increasing reports of unfair players ruining the fun for others.
How has Warzone trolled cheaters? Ricochet, the anti-cheat system for Call of Duty: Warzone, has done a good job over the months, providing a mostly fair gaming experience. Some of the anti-cheat measures in CoD: Warzone can indeed be considered as trolling:
Disarm: The Disarm mechanic immediately takes away all weapons from the cheater, leaving them helpless on the battlefield.
Damage Shield: The Damage Shield grants honest players a shield that reduces damage from shots fired by a player identified as a cheater.
Cloaking: Through the Cloaking mechanic, players receive camouflage when they are hit by shots from an identified cheater. This camouflage makes the honest players invisible.
If you haven’t had the chance to play the new map, you can take a look at Fortunes Keep on MeinMMO without facing cheaters:

Cheating Problem: “Reminds me of the good old days”
This is how cheaters are striking back now: Recently, reports of cheaters have been increasingly surfacing on social networks like reddit and Twitter. In addition to players exploiting a glitch in the new map Fortunes Keep, there are also videos of players who seem to be using cheating software.
The reddit user bwash407 showed a video where he watched another player pulling off incredible gunfights over great distances in many different directions, seemingly knowing the exact position of players who were hundreds of meters away outside his field of vision.
Bwash407 titled the video with the words “Ricochet must be on vacation this week…” referring to the anti-cheat system of Warzone. He then elaborated in the comments: “Reminds me of the good old ‘End of Verdansk’ days.

What are other players saying about the current situation? The reddit post garnered attention and received nearly 100 comments within a day. Many of them report similar frustrating gaming experiences. There are also comparable statements on Twitter. MeinMMO summarizes some comments from Warzone players on the cheating problem.
Xkwizito via Reddit: “I feel like hacking has increased recently. I have definitely seen a bunch of very obvious hackers at Fortunes Keep […].”
What can you do against cheaters? Ricochet generally does a good job. Since you can’t do much against a cheater yourself, you should definitely use the report function and hope that the anti-cheat system will troll the cheating players again.
What is your current impression of Warzone? Have you encountered more cheaters in the last days or weeks, or have you been spared so far? Feel free to let us know in the comments on MeinMMO!

Yesterday, the second beta phase of Overwatch 2 started. This brought several changes, including a nerf for Symmetra. This hero has been a problem for Blizzard for years and is constantly being reworked. The community, in turn, is confused about why she was even weakened.
What has changed about Symmetra? The hero has undergone two major reworks in Overwatch since her release six years ago. She is also struggling with the new 5v5 format from the second part.
However, she was not too strong, but rather too weak for many. Nevertheless, Blizzard has made some nerfs:
Her maximum ammunition for her primary fire has been increased from 70 to 100, and the projectile speed of her secondary fire has been increased from 25 to 50. Those were small buffs.
However, there were several nerfs in return.
She no longer generates ammunition when dealing damage to barriers.
The projectiles from the secondary fire are now smaller, and their damage has been reduced.
Her teleporter is no longer permanent but disbands after a maximum of 10 seconds. Additionally, the cooldown has been increased from 10 to 16 seconds.
The changes are not going down well with players. They criticize that Blizzard lacks a clear concept for the hero.
Which heroes were the strongest in the first beta of Overwatch 2, you can find out in this video:
Start video
Overwatch 2: 5 heroes that dominate the matches the most in the beta
Blizzard seems a bit clueless about Symmetra
What are the players criticizing? Many players are annoyed that Blizzard has no clear concept for Symmetra. There are repeatedly comments expressing disappointment with the changes:
In the official forum, user SwankyOrc complains that a “seldom-used hero is being heavily nerfed” with Symmetra.
On reddit, users express disappointment who had expected a bigger rework and no clear nerf after the announcement.
But Symmetra is in a strange situation overall. The reddit user GuilRosmer illustrates the previous evolution of her reworks:
She has essentially no identity outside of her teleporter and her sentry turrets. They really seem to be afraid to focus too much on one of these abilities:
– Sym was once a support character who provided regenerating shield HP. – Sym was turned into a damage dealer with 2 unique ultimates and a movable shield. – Sym lost her two ultimates in favor of a barrier-melting machine with her own, largest shield in the game. – Sym has now lost her abilities to destroy barriers but still had her own largest shield. Overwatch 2 has almost completely removed barriers.
They have no idea what to do with her. It’s kind of painful to watch. Her original design didn’t work, and they are still struggling to find a place for her. At this point, they should just bite the bullet and think about giving her a complete Orisa remake.
What else has changed for the second beta test? With the update, all heroes received a new “Overwatch 2” look. Additionally, there have been adjustments to pings, the scoreboard, and the lighting on some maps.
Besides Symmetra, 12 other heroes have also been balanced.
Anyone hoping for a major innovation was also not disappointed. A new hero, Junker Queen, was released. More about her here:
Amazon has released the patch notes for the major June update in Lost Ark. It will be applied tomorrow, June 30th. Highlights include the new endgame content. However, the patch notes also contain two small surprises. The weekly reset will be moved forward by one day, and a new event island is coming into play.
What are the highlights of the update?The major June patch focuses primarily on new endgame content, including:
The new Legion Raid Vykas
The new Guardian Raid Kungelanium
The Tier 3 Tower Throne Peak
A buff makes it easier for you to upgrade your gear to gear score 1,415
The Super Express Event will be extended by 20 days to initiate a new one
New skins are coming into the game
What didn’t we know yet? A new feature in the patch is the Heartbeat Island. This is a new location that does not require a quest to enter. On the island, you can collect festival coins through daily quests and relax on the beach and while dancing.
Additionally, the developers announced a major adjustment to the weekly resets. These will now always occur on Wednesdays. The weekly patches are also expected to be released on Wednesdays from now on. The reason given is that this gives the developers more time to respond to issues before the weekend.
When exactly does the patch come out and how long will the maintenance last? The update will be released on June 30 at 9:00 AM German time. Maintenance will accompany the update. The server downtime is expected to last about 4 hours. The servers should be back online by 1:00 PM.

We at MeinMMO have included the official patch notes of the new update (via Lost Ark):
Schedule: Weekly Updates & Resets
Starting next week, the weekly update and reset will take place a day earlier. The update and reset for next week will take place on Wednesday, July 6, instead of Thursday, July 7. Please keep this in mind when you are working to challenge Vykas and complete other content that gets reset weekly, as you will only have 6 days instead of 7 days! We are making this change to ensure that our teams at Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG have time to address any potential issues that may arise in an update before the weekend.

Vykas’ Legion Raid
Vykas is the second Legion Raid in the western version of Lost Ark, following Valtan. In it, you will fight against dangerously seductive members of the Greed Legion before eventually facing the Legion Commander Vykas in her “Garden of Scarlet Ecstasy.” During the battle, there are no revives. Prepare to fight for your life. Vykas is a Legion Raid for eight players, has three portals, and brings a whole new set of features, skills, and mechanics. Players must have reached item level 1430 to play normal mode and 1460 for hard mode.
The relic sets available from Legion Commander gear crafting NPCs require materials from both Valtan and Vykas’ Legion Raid to create a complete set. Vykas’ Legion Raid brings two new items from which gear can be crafted: Coveted Fangs for legendary gear and Coveted Wings for relic gear. Players who master the three portals in Vykas’ Legion Raid will receive increasingly coveted loot corresponding to the increasing difficulty of these fights at each level. Completing each portal grants gold, Coveted Fangs and Wings, relic accessories, and enhancement materials. The last portal may also contain special items such as engraving recipes, card packs, and enhancement books. Additionally, after completing each portal, a bonus chest can be purchased for a portion of the gold earned, which contains additional crafting and enhancement materials, accessories, and skill stones. After completing the last portal in the Legion Raid, there will also be a loot auction where players can bid for additional chests of crafting materials, engravings, enhancement books, and more.
Players can participate in Legion Raids once they have completed the guide quest “[Guide] Note: Legion Raid”.
Kungelanium Guardian Raid
Kungelanium, a fearsome power of evil in the Great War, has awakened from its icy slumber due to the re-emergence of demon legions and the chaos spreading in Arkesia. Together with Deskaluda, the Frost Predator Kungelanium will join the gauntlet of powerful Tier 6 Guardians that can be challenged in a Guardian Raid. Kungelanium will be available as an opponent for players starting at item level 1460. Like other Guardian Raids, you can tackle him solo, with a group, or through matchmaking with up to three other heroes.
Throne Peak
The demon tower, which came to Arkesia with the demon invasion after the events in South Vern, is connected to Petrania – the world where Kazeros’ demon legions reside. Through the resonance between Petrania and the tower, a distorted dimension was created. The Holy Kingdom of Sacria has confirmed that demons are breaching through this dimension and has named it Throne Peak. The dimension is growing and threatening Arkesia. The priests and knights of the Holy Kingdom of Sacria are trying to hold their position, but their supplies are running low. Defeat the demons that flow from Throne Peak and defend Arkesia.
Throne Peak is a new single-player dungeon experience with 50 floors in a twisted dimension. In Throne Peak, you fight until time runs out, and must complete as many floors and defeat as many enemies as possible before the demon legion catches you. For the first 25 floors, there are rewards for clearing them for the first time (you receive all rewards for the conquered floors). In the second 25 floors, it’s all about glory and playtime. Here you must prove that you are capable of defeating everything the demon legions throw at you alone. Participation is possible from level 1325.
General Updates
Heartbeat Island
Need some relaxation after battling the demon legions in the hot summer months in Arkesia? Spend some time on the beach or dance with your friends on the new event island: Heartbeat Island. You can find Heartbeat Island by talking to Jollous, the festival expert in the major cities, or by sailing directly there (near Anikka). To enter the island, you do not need to complete a quest in a city. And when you are there, you can return on the overseas steamer!
Once you arrive at Heartbeat Island, you can collect festival coins through various activities that you can exchange for a variety of rewards. There are daily quests where you receive festival coins for relaxing in a specific area and hourly quests for dancing against and defeating Rekiel, the dancing queen.
General and Comfort Adjustments
A fortress research has been added that improves the enhancement rate of other characters on their journey to item level 1415. This can be researched to item level 1460.
A CAPTCHA system has been added as an ongoing measure to prevent bots. When entering a new zone, you may be asked to submit a CAPTCHA response in text form within a few minutes.
The daily login reward series has been updated.
New settings have been added to change the damage font size.
Chest contents can now be sorted alphabetically.
Preventive measures have been added to limit the activity of gold sellers. New purchases in the store now have a waiting time of 3 days before they can be traded or transferred from the buyer’s account via mail, trade, gift, or sale in the auction house.
Translations and in-game terms have been updated. For example, Class 3 sharpening stones have been changed from Guardian Stone Crystals to Crystallized Guardian Stones.
Shop Updates
The new collection of cosmetic items and new companions are available in the shop. There are also new growth support packages and new item packs in the in-game shop that include some existing items, such as Unas completion cards and card packs.
Growth Support Packages
Each package can be purchased once per squad.

PlayStation Plus had many changes in June, but the free games in the subscription remain. The PS Plus games in July bring you a crazy platformer, a horror game, and arcade action. You can find all the games on MeinMMO with a brief introduction.
Which games are coming to PS Plus in July? There are three games this time:
PS Plus July 2022: Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time
What kind of game is this? Crash Bandicoot is a crazy Tasmanian devil who was something like the Super Mario of PlayStation in the 90s.
In the 4th and latest installment of the series, you jump, punch, and scamper your way through many crazy levels and, as always, save the world on the side. Or the complete framework of space and time.
If you want to check out a review of the game, you’ll find just the right thing with the colleagues at GamePro (via gamepro.de). We’ll embed a gameplay trailer for the game here:

PS Plus July 2022: The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan
What kind of game is this? Almost more of a movie than a game, “Man of Medan” immerses you in a dark atmosphere full of dangers and constant fear.
The game comes from the creators of the PlayStation hit “Until Dawn,” and you can expect something similar from Man of Medan.
You simply try to survive the story while the immersive experience pulls you deeper into a vortex of violence and horror.
The playtime is short but intense. You can find a detailed review with the colleagues at GameStar (via gamestar.de). We’ll embed a gameplay trailer for the game here:

PS Plus July 2022: Arcadegeddon
What kind of game is this? Arcadegeddon is a colorful multiplayer shooter with a service approach. The game is constantly being developed and receives free new content.
You play either as four-person teams against each other in crazy modes or can fight off hordes of enemies together in PvE modes.
The vibrant shooter also offers hero mechanics like in Overwatch, and the characters come with unique traits and moves.
We’ll embed a gameplay trailer for Arcadegeddon here:
On Amazon Prime Gaming, since June 28, there is a package with new loot for the MMORPG Lost Ark. As you are used to, there are again Crystalline Aura and rare Amethyst Shards for free. As a special incentive in July 2022, a free Penguin Outfit is up for grabs.
What is currently available at Amazon Prime Gaming? You will again receive a package of three different items in July:
Crystalline Aura – Duration 5 days
500 Amethyst Shards
Penguin Outfit Selection Chest
You can simply pick up the free items by visiting Amazon Prime Gaming (via Amazon). An active “Prime” membership at Amazon is required. The free items can be picked up until July 26, before new Prime Gaming Loot comes to the site.
If you’re not a Prime user, you can start a 30-day trial period and actually pick up the loot completely for free. But keep in mind that this is only possible once.
In this article, we explain what the items are and how you can connect the accounts of Lost Ark and Prime.
You can also see why the skins look really nice in this video:

5 MMORPGs with the most beautiful graphics
A new item turns you into a penguin
What is in the Leaf Jewelry Selection Chest? The chest contains a cute Penguin skin. There are two different costumes to choose from, both turning you into a waddling hero. One of the skins adorns the penguin with a stylish pair of sunglasses and a cool necklace, while the other is more sailor-themed.
However, be aware that the outfit binds to your character once you have opened the selection chest and you can no longer give it to other characters.
What does the Crystalline Aura do? The aura provides you with several useful bonuses for 5 days, including:
Fast travel becomes free
Fee for overseas ships is reduced by 50%
One additional attempt for daily relationship actions
10% more health points regeneration
Two additional Bifrost slots
50% less cooldown for the Song of Return
Various waiting times at your own fortress are reduced and the experience in the training area is increased
You temporarily receive the title Crystal Benefactor
Normally, you would get 30 days of this aura for 450 crystals in the shop. This costs around 5,000 gold in-game currency or about 11 euros via real money in the game. So, taking these bonuses for free is worthwhile.
What are Amethyst Shards? The shards are a currency that you can only obtain through achievements, Twitch drops, or Prime Gaming. You exchange them for Crystalline Aura, emotes, mounts, or new companion pets.
Claim Prime rewards and link accounts – Here’s how to do it
How does it work? In order to receive the rewards, you only need to connect your Amazon and Lost Ark accounts and have an active Prime membership. To do this, go to the official website for Prime Gaming.
First, you need to log in with your Amazon account. A two-factor authentication is necessary.
Then, you link your Prime account with your Steam account on which you play Lost Ark.
Now you can redeem the loot on the website. It will appear in your in-game mailbox a few minutes later.
What do you think of the new rewards? Do you prefer the penguin or the leaf decoration from last month? Or would you rather have practical items like the relationship chest from May? Feel free to tell us in the comments here at MeinMMO.
Omnium Stars are collectibles in Lost Ark, which you can obtain in Punika and exchange for other valuable rewards. We at MeinMMO show you where to get each Omnium Star.
In total, there are 6 Omnium Stars in Lost Ark. So you have less to do than, for example, farm all 15 Giant Hearts.
Omnium Stars can be obtained from quests, a boss, and a specific reputation level.
How do I farm which Omnium Star?
Omnium Star #1: Complete the main quests in Punika. After that, you can take on another short questline from the NPC Nia and receive the star.
Omnium Star #2: Reward for the second reputation level in the quests “Madness Stacks up on the Altar” and “Pool of Purification” in Una’s Tasks.
Omnium Star #4: You can buy the fourth star for 8,000 Sun Coins. Go to the ship of the Spearfishing Guild in Punika. Omnium Star #5: Defeat the area boss Moake in the Tikatika Colony.
Omnium Star #6: You will receive the last star from the NPC Broken Stella. For this, you need to go to the Garden of Despair on the Island of Fear. To get into the garden, you will need a key.
Where do I turn in Omnium Stars? In the village of Nia on Punika, you will find the NPC Albion. You can exchange your collected stars for a reward per Omnium Star with him.
In the video, you will find some general tips for the endgame in Lost Ark:

Everything you need to know about Lost Ark’s endgame – in the video
What rewards are there? For each collectible, you get a valuable item to improve your character. Some of the potions are especially useful since you won’t get any additional skill points without leveling and you can’t level up your skills.
In total, there are two skill point potions. Two enhancement potions come in addition, one small and one large. The small potion gives 5 strength, intelligence, and dexterity, while the large one gives 25 each. For Star #3 and Star #5, you will receive a rune each. First “Overwhelm” and later “Wealth”.
How many Omnium Stars have you farmed already? Or have you taken care of other collectibles first? What item level has your character reached? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!
An absurd mount is currently attracting attention in the community of World of Warcraft. Because a giant Murloc might soon end up as a mount.
New mounts are among the most beautiful and impressive rewards that characters can receive in World of Warcraft. Especially when entirely new mounts are introduced to the game, players pay particularly close attention.
A few days ago, data miners found hints of a rather curious mount – a giant muscular Murloc. But how does one obtain it?
What was discovered? The data miner Martin Benjamins found that one of the textures for the in-game shop of WoW reveals something interesting. One of the images shows not only the small Murkastrasza, one of the rewards from the Dragonflight editions, but also a giant muscular Murloc.
The Murloc is clearly larger than the pet, which suggests that it is intended to be a mount. It also has a structure on its back that looks like a seat, further supporting the suspicion.
How does one obtain the mount? This is still unclear. Apparently, it was once intended as part of the promotion alongside Murkastrasza. The most likely scenario is that Murkastrasza and the Murloc mount were meant to be part of BlizzConline 2022. However, after BlizzConline was canceled, the purpose of this mount fell away – for now. This would at least explain why Murkastrasza is shown in a picture alongside the mount.
Murkastrasza has now become part of a premium package for Dragonflight, but there is no sign of the Murloc mount. Possibly as part of the pre-order for Dragonflight or as a reward for watching BlizzConline.
Since the graphic comes from the shop, one can assume that the Murloc mount will find a new purpose here as well. The most common theory is that the Mega-Murloc will soon be the reward for completing a 6-month subscription. This way, the mount could be “recycled” and provide a reward for loyal players who remain engaged during the content drought until the release of Dragonflight at the end of the year.
What do you think of this mount? A cool thing or too silly? And how should one best be able to obtain this mount?

The studio Proletariat is known for the battle royale Spellbreak. However, it will be closed in 2023. Now it has come to light: Blizzard has acquired the studio and the associated employees. They are now supposed to advance the development of the new WoW expansion.
How many employees does Blizzard get with this? As reported by Venturebeat, Blizzard is said to have gained 100 additional employees through the purchase of the studio. They are initially supposed to focus on advancing the development of Dragonflight .
The announcement that new employees are joining Blizzard lowers the skepticism of some players. The company is said to have been collaborating with Blizzard since May.

The development of Shadowlands was tough
What do the companies say about the acquisition? Venturebeat spoke with Seth Sivak, the CEO of Proletariat. When asked about the current issues at Blizzard, such as the sexism scandal, he said: “I believe the Blizzard team has recognized some of the challenges they faced. In some of the early conversations, we discussed how they want to further improve the culture and create a great workplace for developers.”
He sees collaboration with Blizzard and working on WoW as an opportunity to further develop the Proletariat studio.
John Hight, General Manager of WoW, explained that WoW players have an insatiable hunger for new content. Blizzard has had trouble satisfying this hunger with Shadowlands. As early as the end of 2021, they looked for ways to hire more employees.
The first effects of the new employees should already be felt at the launch of Dragonflight.
How big is this deal? The acquisition of an entire studio and the hiring of 100 employees is the biggest expansion for Blizzard in the last 15 years. Recently, the company has made headlines for layoffs:
The employees of Proletariat are supposed to be integrated into the team in Boston.
More about Dragonflight can be found in our podcast:
Employees worked on mobile MMOs and battle royale
What kind of new employees are these? Proletariat was founded in 2012 by veterans in the industry. They had previously worked on MMORPGs such as Lord of the Rings Online, Dungeons & Dragons Online, or Asheron’s Call.
In 2015, the studio released its first game, World Zombination. It was a mobile MMO and reached over 4 million players worldwide. They gained recognition through Spellbreak, a battle royale that was released for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and later Nintendo Switch.
However, this very game is now being discontinued. More about it here:
In Call of Duty: Warzone there are golden keycards on the Caldera map that you can use to open bunkers throughout the map. MeinMMO shows you where to find the golden keycards and whether the effort for the bunkers is worth it.
Where can I find the golden keycards? There is no exact location where you can find the golden keycards.
However, they have a high chance of spawning in supply crates near the new bunkers. So keep an eye out for them everywhere. They shine in gold and are noticeable.
CoD Warzone: Bunkers on Caldera
Where are the bunkers located? The bunkers are usually located at the edge of the map and are secured with a hatch. You can open the entrances of the bunkers by interacting with the corresponding pad at the entrance. It doesn’t matter which card you use to open a bunker, as any card fits into any bunker.
The golden circles mark the locations of the bunkers on the Caldera map
The exact locations of the respective bunkers have been detailed in a separate post:
Is the effort worth it? Since the location of the golden keycards is random, you should not specifically go hunting for cards and bunkers.
However, if you happen to find a card and are nearby, visiting one of the seven bunkers on the Caldera map might be worth it.
However, caution is advised, as enemies might take position near such bunkers and ambush you. So stay alert and scour the area first before you venture into the bunker.
Windows 11 is now the latest edition of Microsoft’s popular operating system. However, users are annoyed that Microsoft insists on an upgrade. Here’s how to completely disable the pop-ups.
Windows 11 has been on the market for a few months now, and you can upgrade to the latest version for free. Many gamers have already installed Windows 11, but not everyone is eager to make the switch.
Now there are some users who complain that the upgrade to Windows 11 installs automatically. However, there is a solution if you wish to remain on Windows 10.
Windows 10 downloads the upgrade to Windows 11 without your consent
What exactly is the problem? Microsoft wants many users to switch to Windows 11. Now, some users report that the system automatically downloads the upgrade to Windows 11 and subsequently wants to install it. This is explained by an author at PCGamer as well as several users in the Microsoft Community. There are also users on reddit who frequently complain about a sudden upgrade (via reddit.com or reddit.com).
If your system is compatible with Windows 11, a pop-up regularly appears with the message “We recommend Windows 11 for your device.” Here you can either choose to install or remind yourself later.
Windows annoys its users with such pop-ups.
When can Windows 11 install itself? The prerequisite is that your computer supports Windows 11. You can find the system requirements on the official Microsoft page. If your system is not compatible, you are normally spared from upgrade prompts.
Can the upgrade install without consent? Normally not, because you must first confirm the terms and conditions and the EULA for using Windows 11.
How do I prevent an upgrade? If you’re satisfied with Windows 10 and find the constant upgrade reminder annoying, just dismissing the pop-up notice is not enough. Because it will keep popping up until you eventually upgrade to Windows 11.
If you want to permanently get rid of the annoying reminder, you either need to create a group policy or create a registry entry. We explain how this works here.
The following actions are at your own risk! We take no responsibility for actions you take with your computer. Be careful and attentive when you are working in your registry.
Disable Windows 11 Upgrade under Windows 10 – Here’s how
If you are using Windows 10 Home: If you are using Windows 10 Home, you need to go through the registry editor:
Press the Windows+R key combination and then type regedit. This will take you to the editor. Confirm the User Account Control prompt with Yes.
Navigate in the registry editor here: ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsWindowsUpdate. This can be done directly via the bar at the top.
If the WindowsUpdate directory does not exist, right-click on the Windows directory on the left, select “New,” then “Key,” and add WindowsUpdate, then press the Enter key.
Now you need to find the file TargetReleaseVersion in the right window area and double-click on it. If the file does not exist, right-click, select “New,” DWORD (32-bit) Value, and enter TargetReleaseVersion there.
Double-click on the file and enter the value 1 in the data field.
Next, create TargetReleaseVersionInfo in the same directory and select “String.” If the file already exists, skip this step.
Then edit the string and enter as value the Windows 10 version you want to use. You can always find the current Windows version in the official Microsoft documentation.
Now close the registry editor and restart your computer.
This is how the registry editor should look. In the right half, the three files should be visible.
If you are using Windows 10 Pro:
Press the Windows+R key combination and enter gpedit.msc. This will take you to the “Local Group Policy Editor” window.
Here you need to navigate through the menu: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Windows Update for Business.
Here, double-click on “Select the target version of the feature update.” Now choose the Windows version you want to use. You can always find the current Windows version in the official Microsoft documentation.
First, navigate to the following sub-point.Here you can select the current target version.

In League of Legends , young players rise to become professionals after years of training, but careers can end quickly. According to an online magazine’s report, a Brazilian professional team now has to let go of 4 players, as their sponsor, a crypto exchange, has apparently fallen into a crisis. The players have to suffer the consequences. According to the crypto exchange, they are doing great.
Which team is it about?
It is about the Brazilian e-sports team “Rensga Esports”. They compete in the Brazilian professional league CBLOL: Brazil is considered a growth market in gaming.
At “Rensga Esports”, 2 South Koreans play as top laner and supporter. The other spots are filled by Brazilians.
However, the Brazilian crypto exchange has strongly committed to the cryptocurrency Bitcoin and Bitcoin is in a crisis: The currency has lost over 53% of its value in the last 6 months.
Hopefully, there will never be such news about LoL teams from Germany:

Team allegedly dismisses experienced players and Korea imports
These are the planned changes: As reported by the Brazilian site MGG, citing anonymous sources, the significant losses of Bitcoin have led to a decline in revenue for the crypto exchange. This crisis is now responsible for Rensga letting go of 4 players. It is said:
The two South Koreans have to go
The experienced bot laner Goku (25) is now probably too expensive
The job of jungler Minerva, who began his career in 2013, also seems to be uncertain
According to MGG, they plan to replace the 4 players with talent from their academy team.
Crypto exchange denies any connection, claims they are doing great
What does the team say? In a press statement, the team confirmed that they are making changes to the roster, but did not specify which ones.
Instead, they present themselves as a “strong brand” that stands for “innovation, new business, and rapid development.”
From the sponsor, it is stated that the sponsor deal with Rensga expires on June 30, and an extension or renewal is possible. They claim to have no financial difficulties; on the contrary, the exchange is the largest in Brazil regarding trading volume for Bitcoin.
Therefore, any connections between changes in the roster and the situation of the crypto exchange are purely speculative. They continue to believe in the team and cheer for them.
Neither the sponsor nor the team addresses any potential financial problems.
Life as a professional e-sport player can be tough. Some things are just out of one’s control:
DayZ is a survival shooter where the motto is: Trust no one. A player named Dr. Wasteland, however, roamed the game world to help other players and became a DayZ legend. In an interview, the person behind Dr. Wasteland spoke about the origins of the character.
What is DayZ? DayZ is a zombie survival game that revolves around surviving in an apocalyptic world.
A virus causes people to turn into zombies, which attack the survivors. But not only the zombies pose a danger to you. Other players may have their eye on you and attack you.
Therefore, you can’t really trust anyone in the game. Resources are scarce, and many players deceive others to steal and eliminate them.
Given this situation, very few would come up with the idea of roaming the game world as an altruist and helping others. But that was precisely the mission of Dr. Wasteland.
In this trailer, you can see what new things are currently in DayZ:
Who is Dr. Wasteland? In the DayZ community, Dr. Wasteland is considered a legend. There have been numerous posts in various forums reporting on Dr. Wasteland’s good deeds.
Rather than fighting against others, he wandered the world of DayZ as a medic, trying to save other players. He treated their wounds, preventing them from losing all their items.
Some players thought the story was made up. However, it turns out that Dr. Wasteland actually exists. In an interview, the person behind Dr. Wasteland explained how the character came to be.
“I wasn’t particularly good at the whole shooting thing”
Who is behind Dr. Wasteland? The person behind Dr. Wasteland is Doug Wattkins. In an interview with pcgamer.com, he explains the background of the DayZ legend (via pcgamer.com).
How did the legend of Dr. Wasteland begin? Wattkins explains that he initially tried his hand as a bandit. However, that didn’t work out because he wasn’t particularly good at shooting. So he traded weapons for medical equipment.
As Dr. Wasteland, he began to help others. He recounts that the first reactions in the DayZ forums were initially skeptical. Many thought it was a trick.
How devious most players in DayZ play can be seen here on YouTube:

Wattkins wanted to gain trust in the community. He asked the players he helped for one thing: that they post their stories in the forums. He wanted to make sure others knew that Dr. Wasteland would indeed help.
What does the DayZ developer say? The DayZ creator Dean Hall also mentioned that his first reaction to Dr. Wasteland was an absolute disbelief in the community. Many wondered what this was all about and that DayZ was just a game.
EVE Online received an update on June 28, with which the developers aim to make the 19-year-old MMORPG look more modern. They improved the graphics, textures, and sound.
The update “EVE Evolved” is a big step towards “EVE Forever,” say the developers CCP. This means they continuously improve EVE Online to keep up with current MMOs. The gameplay only changes slightly with the update. Visually, however, a lot changes.
Graphically, CCP has revamped the fog and the career agent areas. The quality of the textures has also been improved, and compressed textures have been removed. Your spaceships now look much better.
The sound quality also received an upgrade, so EVE Online now sounds better than before.
This is how the MMORPG looked before and after the update
What kind of game is this anyway? EVE Online has existed since 2003 and is now one of the oldest MMORPGs still being played. It is a free space MMO where you travel through space. The game offers PvE, PvP, exploration, mining, and a player-controlled economy.
Developers want to attract new players
The graphic update is supposed to motivate new players to try EVE Online. “New players who engage with career agents can look forward to it,” say CCP. They have revamped the areas of the career agent missions to provide visually more for beginners.
The dialog window also looks more modern now to make it easier for new players to use.
In the EVE Online real-money shop, new players can also buy packages to level up faster. You get Omega, skill points, boosters, skins, and more – depending on which package you buy.
How the community reacts
In the community hub on Steam, many players comment that they are less excited about the update. Instead, they are angry that the prices in the real-money store have risen and that EVE Online generally focuses on pay-to-win.
Under the post regarding the graphic update, the developers received rather negative feedback:
Sgt Rakov: “They are desperately trying to attract new players instead of motivating the veterans to stay.”
Antimate: “None of this justifies a 33 percent price increase.”
Z: “I would take N64 graphics if it meant improved gameplay.”
What do you think of the update? Was it worth it for CCP to enhance the graphics? Have you played EVE Online before, are currently playing, or would you like to try it out? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!

In Diablo Immortal, the difficulty level is an important part of your journey. It makes your opponents tougher and ensures that you have to proceed more tactically. But how do you change it and what does a higher difficulty give you? We at MeinMMO show you.
Here’s how to change the difficulty level: To change your difficulty, you first need to complete the main story of Diablo Immortal. Once you have finished, you must go to Westmark. From there, open the map and select the skull icon on the upper right side of your screen.
In the upper right corner of your screen, you can see the difficulty marked with a skull.This is how the selection of your difficulty levels looks.This is how you select your difficulty.
This symbolizes the existing difficulties that Diablo Immortal currently offers. You can choose between five levels. Each level also recommends a suggested Paragon level:
Hell I: Paragon 1 – 60
Hell II: Paragon 30 – 130
Hell III: Paragon 90 – 210
Hell IV: Paragon 160 – 300
Hell V: Paragon 240 – 600
Important notes on the difficulty level
What does a high difficulty level provide me? The higher your difficulty level, the better loot you will receive at the end of bosses or dungeons. To continually improve your hero and equip them with better loot, you can select a higher difficulty. This effectively enhances your hero.
What does difficulty level affect? A higher difficulty level not only affects your loot. Your opponents will also hit harder after the change. Therefore, you will need to proceed more tactically in dungeons to survive.
Which difficulty level should I choose? That depends on your Paragon level. You can try to aim for higher difficulties, but if you are not within the recommended level range, many players will see you as dead weight.
You will deal less damage in combat, and your teammates will always be busy reviving you. So, try to take it slow at first and gradually increase your difficulty.
That’s all about difficulty levels and how to change them. If you want to know how to get Platinum, we obviously have the right guide for you:
In Destiny 2 there is a really useful weapon perk that you should know about: Adaptive Munitions. It transforms weapons into “Mini-Arbalests” and can even hold its ground in the endgame to some extent, as it allows your bullets to pierce all enemy shields. MeinMMO tells you how it works and which weapons you can use with it.
This is what makes “Adaptive Munitions” so popular: Everyone knows it in Destiny 2. When you encounter enemies with energy shields and don’t have a weapon equipped with the appropriate element, it takes forever to break the shield and deal damage.
But with the improved perk “Adaptive Munitions”, which is strong against all shields—whether Solar, Arc, or Void—you can simply bypass this.
If you use the perk “Adaptive Munitions” on your weapon, it adjusts its damage output and effectiveness against energy shields that do not match the weapon’s damage type.
Hits deal increasingly higher damage against enemy shields, with up to 600% more damage.
The buff is removed when a matching shield or an enemy without a shield is hit.
No wonder the weapon perk “Adaptive Munitions” is currently becoming increasingly popular among Guardians. For some, this perk, as a solid weapon advantage in PvE, is already a hidden gem and is considered an S-Tier advantage.
An impulse rifle with “Adaptive Munitions” thus becomes a “Mini-Arbalest”.
The perk even works in the endgame: Additionally, one can indeed perform better against champions in the endgame with it. As the community has discovered, the shields of anti-barrier champions can be broken faster and better using the perk.
In short: You significantly enhance the effect of the seasonal anti-barrier mod with it.
This will vary in the future, depending on which weapon types Bungie selects for the anti-barrier mod in the respective season. It may not be better than the current exotic anti-barrier champion king “Arbalest”. Nevertheless, this “Mini-Arbalest version” is worth a closer look for legendary weapons.
How strong is the perk exactly? After firing at an enemy energy shield with a weapon that has “Adaptive Munitions”, the weapon’s damage is immediately increased with the second shot.
Stack
Normal +%
Improved +%(Crafted)
1x
+ 167 %
+ 200 %
2x
+ 333 %
+ 400 %
3x
+ 500 %
+ 600 %
This advantage does not work against enemies without shields. However, using “Anti-Barrier Rounds” increases the base damage stack by another 5%.
The following weapons are currently particularly interesting with the “Adaptive Munitions” perk:
A complete list of the weapons currently dropping with the perk “Adaptive Munitions” can be found on light.gg.
“Chain of Command”, the ritual weapon from Season 17, can also utilize “Adaptive Munitions”.
The “All-Rounder Weapons” can also be crafted: Through the weapon crafting, which came with the expansion “The Witch Queen”, you can even enjoy the improved version of this perk.
The improved perk “Adaptive Munitions” has a damage increase per stack, and the maximum damage increase is multiplicatively raised by 20%.
At first, only 3 weapons could be crafted with it in Season 16, but Season 17 has already significantly expanded the selection for crafting.
One can therefore expect that even more weapons will be added in the future, which can then be shaped with the improved perk “Adaptive Munitions” in the Enclave on Mars.
In our tests, the improved perk “Adaptive Munitions” felt particularly suitable in gameplay, especially with fast-firing weapons. In the legendary campaign, shields can be easily blown away, and even against barrier champions in the endgame, the perk was quite effective.
Even if it takes a little longer to achieve the maximum damage output on a shield.
What do you think about the advantage of “Adaptive Munitions” on weapons? Could it already convince you in your gameplay, or have we just piqued your curiosity? Feel free to let us know in the comments.

The streamer Dimitri “Greekgodx” Antonatos (29) was banned on Twitch. He claims it is because he danced half-naked and showed his bare male chest. But in the same stream, he also expressed in a rant that his future wife would have to give up her career to cook for him.
Who is “Greekgodx?”
The 29-year-old streamer lives in England, but has Greek roots. He started his career in 2011 on Twitch.
He became known as the funny sidekick of the LoL-rager LoLTyler1. At that time, he weighed about 165 kilograms and had an average of 10,000 viewers. However, in 2018 he started a keto diet and lost a lot of weight.
Tyler1 no longer streamed with him later on, because the fit Tyler1 no longer found the now muscular Greekgodx funny since he lost weight.
Greekgodx is strongly associated with his drastic weight loss between 2018 and 2019:

Greekgodx lost a significant amount of weight in 2019 within a year.
This is how things have gone for him recently: In recent years, Greekgodx has become known primarily as a controversial variety streamer.
However, last year he streamed 40% less and had 46% fewer average viewers than before. On Twitch, he now averages about 3,500 viewers.
Things are not going very well for him – however, many streamers faced similar issues in 2022: After the measures to contain the Corona pandemic eased, viewer numbers on Twitch fell for many.
Twitch bans often create a lot of discussion:

Twitch bans streamer for 3 days
What did he do now? Greekgodx was, according to his own statements, banned from Twitch for 72 hours (via twitter).
The ban came after a stream in which he explained how he imagines his future girlfriend for 55 seconds.
This goes out to all the women who want to date me, especially to female streamers. If you want to be with me: Your streaming career is over. I will stream while you cook and clean for me. You take care of the children while I earn all the money.
The Twitch streamer explained that he imagines his life this way: He earns money, the woman is in the kitchen, cooking, cleaning, and making sure “his home” is clean.
He needs this because streaming is taxing on his mind and soul.

Was he banned from Twitch for this? According to Greekgodx, it was not his statements that led to his 3-day ban.
He claims he was banned for a dance in which his chest was visible (via twitter).
He writes that he has been naughty.
“Lost weight – developed God complex”
How is this being discussed? Greekgodx is generally viewed critically by many, as he has also significantly changed his program since his dramatic weight loss. Recently, he attracted attention with anti-vaccine statements.
On social media, the comments say:
“Greek has gone off the rails since he lost weight and developed a God complex. The guy really thinks he is better than everyone else.”
“His views on women are really what pushed him over the edge. It’s even worse than Trainwrecks’ speech about women that led to his ban.”
“The guy has gone off the rails after streaming with Tyler1 and after losing so much weight. His ego has gotten to his head.”
