83-year-old WoW grandma severely injures herself while catching the cat, heals high Mythic Plus dungeons shortly after surgery with just one hand

The Twitch streamer WoWGrandma78 is obviously tough. Just because she unfortunately broke her wrist, doesn’t mean she has to stop healing high Mythic Plus dungeons in World of Warcraft.

Who is it about? Behind the Twitch name WowGrandma78 is an 83-year-old player who has loved streaming World of Warcraft regularly for the past 5 years and getting to know a variety of people around the world.

Both – streaming and playing WoW – are being done with considerable success. Her channel on Twitch currently has 142,599 followers. In World of Warcraft, she successfully heals high-level dungeons with her 3 (!) night elf druids – her highest Mythic score is 3,113.

Who needs 2 hands to heal dungeons?

What happened to WowGrandma78? On November 1, 2025, the likable player returned to X after several days off:

October: The cat ran out and I ran after it. When I wanted to pick it up, it jerked and I broke my wrist. The operation was on the 24th. A week off, wow, but tonight I healed two 10s, one 11, and one 12 with one hand. We completed all of them in time. Unfortunately, I can’t tackle my 14s right now.

For all non-WoW players: Despite her injury and the operation, the player ventured with just one hand into one of the endgame areas of World of Warcraft (the so-called Mythic Plus dungeons) to successfully heal groups at high difficulty levels with her druid.

How does the community react to this achievement? Under the post on X, many people wish the WoW grandma a speedy recovery. Moreover, many commentators pay respect to this achievement.

  • Fred… writes on X something like: “What. A. Gamer.”
  • Amy Faith adds on X: “Absolute legend.”
  • Rax on rax speaks to many on X: “I wish you a quick recovery. Enjoy the game as best you can and take your time for recovery.”
  • GBugden can’t believe it on X: “You can still heal Mythics? You are clearly too strong.”

By the way, WowGrandma78 has already successfully mastered some 14s. Where do you currently stand in the Mythic Plus area of WoW? Share it in the comments!

Even though a new Call of Duty is coming soon, players are currently celebrating a part that was released 18 years ago: “The best CoD of all time”

Do you know off the top of your head which Call of Duty was released 18 years ago? Spoiler: It’s one of the most popular parts of the shooter series. This is evidenced by a current discussion in the community.

Which Call of Duty is it? Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was released on November 5 and 8, 2007 for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. Later, ports for Nintendo DS and Wii followed, as well as a remaster.

On metacritic.com, the shooter holds a Metascore of 94 and a user score of 8.5. More than 15.7 million copies of Modern Warfare are said to have been sold by 2013 alone. Unsurprisingly, the hit spawned various sequels.

Unlike many today’s service shooters, the campaign of Modern Warfare was not just an accessory but a key to its success. The staging of many missions was cinematic and gripping. The modern setting in the here and now of an alternative reality noticeably stood out from many other shooters of that time.

As players, we experience an execution firsthand, various painful helicopter crashes, one of the most thrilling stealth segments in video game history, and the shocking fall of a nuclear bomb.

However, some scenes also attracted criticism, including a section where we have to open fire on hard-to-identify individuals through the thermal imaging camera of a plane. At another point, a prisoner is first tortured and then shot. The approximately 6-hour-long campaign left a lasting impression on many players at the time.

Genre-defining milestone

How does the community remember this part? On Reddit, part of the community is currently using the anniversary to reflect on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

  • JPSWAG37 writes on Reddit: “It’s really incredible how sustainable the legacy of this game is. It has since become a model for mainstream FPS games, for better or worse.”
  • tj647963 shares on Reddit his clear opinion: “The best CoD of all time.”
  • Common_Exam_1401 agrees on Reddit: “The game that took CoD away from its roots as a WWII shooter and changed the FPS genre forever.”
  • For pen15_club_admin, there was only one clear winner, via Reddit: “The game beat Halo 3.”

With Black Ops 7, the next Call of Duty is already on the starting blocks. The release on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Game Pass is planned for November 14, 2025.

Participant of 7 vs. Wild makes a big suggestion for the next season, the community is excited but doesn’t want him to be there

While the new season of 7 vs. Wild is still in full swing, one participant already has concrete plans for the upcoming sixth season of the survival show.

Who is it about? For the second time, survival expert Joe Vogel is participating in 7 vs. Wild. While he was particularly noted for a big argument with another participant in the last season, he shares command of the group in season 5 with Alone winner David Leichtle, which is going much better than in the previous season.

While Season 5 is currently about halfway through, Joe Vogel already has plans for what the season should look like in 2026… and it could be even tougher, according to the survival expert.

Another participant was initially controversial but then developed into a fan favorite.

Harder than ever

How does he envision the season? In a story on Instagram, Joe Vogel shared his idea for the 6th season of 7 vs. Wild. He lists eight key points, with point 8 likely not being a firm rule.

You can see the eight points here:

If it were up to Joe Vogel, the format would move to the Outback in Australia in 2026. But instead of the jungle camp, 7 experts would be dropped off at a backwater of a river or a watering hole. Each professional is allowed to bring 7 items with them to survive for 14 days.

As in seasons 1 and 2, there would be a mission every day that needs to be completed, while tackling the major goal of building a shelter and meeting basic needs. From day 11, the 3-day march to safety would then begin, which participants would have to manage with their respective energy reserves. His last wish would be to be a participant one more time.

How are the viewers reacting? Joe Vogel’s concept aligns with many aspects of the long-held desire of viewers for a specialist season. Accordingly, many fans are responding positively on Reddit to Joe Vogel’s suggestions:

  • der_tuk: “That would be exactly what I would finally wish for.”
  • Manila99: “I would think it’s awesome. Exactly what I want to see. But impressive that such a trivial answer to a completely normal question can provoke such heated opinions and debates early in the morning.”
  • reelThin: “Great, the idea has just one catch: Without the ‘kidfluencers’, it will get less reach. In the end, aside from Joe and Leichtle, no one is there who brings anything except for reach. 2 out of 5! That’s been evident since season 4, I think.”
  • Odd-Philosopher-1522: “Then every expert just gets an influencer at their side. Season goal: Keep the influencer alive.”

Joe Vogel’s reintroduction as a participant for the next season is causing some displeasure among fans. They would prefer a season without the survival expert, who would then have caught up with Fritz Meinecke as a long-term participant. User YungLynIssc writes: “I’m in favor of each participant being allowed to participate a maximum of 2 times.”

Can 7 vs. Wild function without influencers? In the comments, there is often talk that the proposal is unrealistic because one would not have the necessary reach without influencers to produce a season. However, season 1 of 7 vs. Wild has already proven that it works even without influencers. A compromise with 7 survival and outdoor influencers could also be conceivable here.

Whether the creators of 7 vs. Wild will take Joe Vogel’s proposal to heart is unclear. However, many fans hope so. A professional season with a survival influencer cast could make the show exciting again for all those who missed the feeling of loneliness in seasons 4 and 5. Although some fans can’t stand Joe Vogel, he saved season 5: Candidate saves 7 vs. Wild just before the start, must swim across the Amazon

The new big villain in the MCU hates his rival so much that he forces the hero to make him the godfather of his daughter

The universe of Marvel is not only full of powerful adults, but children also have a significant impact on the story. Among them is a child of the Fantastic Four, who has a special relationship with one of the worst villains.

Who is it about? Over time, other family members joined the Fantastic Four. Those who have seen the latest Marvel movie might know the name Franklin Richards. He is one of the most powerful figures in the Marvel universe. But he is not the only child of Sue Storm and Reed Richards.

Valeria Richards is the second child of the two. Although she is somewhat less powerful than her older brother, she has an interesting relationship with the arch-nemesis of the Fantastic Four: Dr. Doom, who will be the next major Avengers threat after Thanos in 2026.

Start video
The Fantastic Four: First Steps – The new Marvel film will be released in theaters on July 25

Dr. Doom saved her and her mother

Even at birth, Dr. Doom was a relevant factor. The existence of Valeria is more complicated than one might think. Even in the womb, she emitted radioactive energy and no scientist could help her. Even the genius Reed Richards was baffled. Subconsciously, Franklin sent his yet-to-be-born sister to another dimension where Sue is married to Dr. Doom (a nice variant).

An older Valeria then returned, and during a conflict with the villain Abraxas, reality was altered. Sue was pregnant again with Valeria. But this time complications arose again. Valeria continued to emit dangerous energy in the womb, threatening Sue’s life. Johnny Storm, Sue’s brother, turned to Dr. Doom in his desperation.

Thanks to his magical abilities and intelligence, Doom was able to help the Fantastic Four bring Valeria into the world healthy in the comic Fantastic Four No. 54 (1998). But he demanded a price: He became Valeria’s godfather and named her after his great love (whom he once sacrificed to demons).

Despite his new role as Uncle Doom, he did not become any less evil. He manipulated Valeria with magic and even ensured that her first words would be his name. Although the magical connection was eventually severed, Uncle Doom became an important part of Valeria’s life.

Valeria likes her nasty uncle

What is the relationship between Valeria and Dr. Doom? Although Dr. Doom is her father’s arch-nemesis, she likes her nasty godfather, who respects her for her high intelligence. She constantly tries to guide the powerful magician towards good.

In the 2014 comic series of Fantastic Four, she stayed with him in his country Latveria and tried to help the world with Doom’s power. At one point, she even formed her own Avengers group with him to defeat an evil Scarlet Witch.

However, despite his good deeds, the villain craved power. Even when her family fights Doom, Valeria always tries (even secretly) to keep in touch with her godfather. At the same time, she does not simply let him conquer the world or do evil. When necessary, she helps her family in the fight.

On the other hand, it also seems like this: No matter how much he wants to destroy and dominate everything, he would mostly do anything for his goddaughter Valeria. In the comic Fantastic Four No. 7 from 2023 (via Marvel), he wants to rescue a time-lost Valeria. He invests several years of his life for her. Just for another person. This does not fit at all with the Dr. Doom who would usually sacrifice others for anything.

Will we meet Valeria in the MCU? That is hard to say. Franklin Richards is alive after the events of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Dr. Doom apparently has an interest in him. If the next Avengers movie titled Doomsday involves different dimensions and timelines, that is quite possible. However, this has not yet been confirmed. In 2027, we could even expect a villain worse than Doom: Marvel may have spoiled the all-powerful villain from the new MCU, which could become a real problem for the Avengers

Pokémon GO hints at monsters for the next Community Days and everyone immediately knows what it is about

The monster of the next Community Day in Pokémon GO has been teased. It brings you a colorful bird that is received differently by trainers.

What kind of event is this? A Community Day is a regularly occurring event in Pokémon GO. A monster is in the spotlight, appearing not only in very high numbers but also with an increased shiny chance, an exclusive move, and other strong bonuses.

The date of the Community Day in November has long been known. It will take place on November 30, 2025. Now, the monster of the event has also been teased in a short video.

A bird, many colors

What kind of monster is this? In the short 5-second video that was published on X, you see the silhouette of a bird monster and hear chirping. While the silhouette is harder to recognize in the dark-toned video, the chirping of the monster is clearly recognizable as the cry of Peppeck.

This is a Normal-Flying type monster from Generation 7. It can evolve into Trompeck and then into Tukanon, the toucan-like monster with the typically colorful beak.

What does the community say about it? The hints from the video were quickly identified by trainers. In a post on Reddit, trainers discuss the announcement. While some trainers are disappointed with the monster and wish for other monsters instead, there are also positive voices regarding the Community Day. Especially the shiny version of Tukanon generates some anticipation among certain trainers.

Some comments include:

  • “At least it’s a new shiny,” writes TheMadJAM
  • “That was the only shiny I caught while playing Moon, and I’m excited to finally have the shiny in GO,” says Grinning_Dog
  • “I would prefer if they held Community Day Classics instead…” thinks MindlessAssistance52
  • “Not exactly exciting, but the shiny Tukanon is pretty cool,” comments Qoppa_Guy
  • “Cool, I can skip this,” is the comment from ceeroSVK

What do you think about the Community Day? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments. There is still some time until the start of the Community Day. However, there are many events happening in the game until then. What they are, you can find out in our overview with all events in November 2025 in Pokémon GO.

The trio defeats the hardest opponent in ARC Raiders in 1 minute, against which entire lobbies occasionally fail

In ARC Raiders, everything and everyone is a danger, but nothing is worse than the Queen. Many lobbies have failed against her, but now a fearless trio squad shows how to deal with the beast without the help of hostile Raiders.

Which enemy are we talking about? The currently most dangerous opponent in ARC Raiders is the Queen. This robot spider is not only massive, but also armored to the teeth. Equipped with a laser and mortars, she attacks Raiders with deadly efficiency, both in close and ranged combat. Those who think they can dodge her attacks are mistaken.

All attacks leave a burning ground that deals massive damage and can ignite you. If you think you can hide under the spider, you are mistaken a second time. With a shockwave, she can knock you down and cause damage as well.

To defeat the Queen, you either need a whole lobby or a perfect team and a lot of luck. The latter was achieved by a player on Reddit, as he was able to defeat the Queen in 1 minute with his squad without the help of hostile Raiders. His trick? Be well prepared!

ARC Raiders soll laut der Community die chilligsten Lobbys haben

Queen dies miserably in a hail of rockets

How was the fight against the Queen fought? In the video, the user TGebby showed on Reddit the fight against the Queen. He bravely faced the beast just with his trio squad and even won in record time. His weapon choice was the Wolfpack, a grenade specifically designed to eliminate ARCs.

The grenade detonates in mid-air and splits into small, armor-piercing rockets. These automatically seek out the nearest ARC – in this case, the Queen. TGebby packed a total of 20 Wolfpacks, and as seen in the video, he was not the only one in his squad with this choice of grenade.

In less than 1 minute, all Wolfpacks were unleashed on the Queen. The beast had hardly a chance to escape. Slowly, piece by piece, the armor of the ARC crumbled, and when all grenades were used up, TGebby used his Hullcracker rifle to finish her off.

If you subtract the equipment time of the grenades, TGebby defeated the robot in 1 minute, a time that other Raiders can only dream of. Nevertheless, the strategy presented proves to be risky.

Why is TGebby’s strategy risky? Wolfpacks are very rare if you want to find them on the surface. Of course, you can also find a blueprint with some luck and then craft the grenade at your explosives station, but the necessary resources are also rare and not so easy to obtain. Preparation can be somewhat costly.

Another problem is a variable that cannot be influenced, which is the enemy Raiders. TGebby was lucky when challenging the Queen that he did not die beforehand because of other Raiders. If that had happened, he would have lost all his strong items, and that is a risk that very few would take.

Many prefer to group up the lobby to fight the monster with combined strength. In this way, the risk of loss is much lower since the necessary ammunition and grenades are distributed among all players.

Nevertheless, the user impressively demonstrates that with a well-coordinated team, anything is possible, even defeating the toughest opponent in record time.

Blizzard has to postpone two updates for Diablo 4 due to technical problems, community asks: “Do they even play their own game?”

The developers of Diablo 4 have to postpone their patch, triggering a domino effect that also affects upcoming events.

What about the new patch? The developers of Diablo 4 have postponed their upcoming “Patch 2.4.3”, as they announced on blizzard.com. The reason for the delays are technical issues that require the developers to need more time to complete the patch.

The postponement causes a sort of domino effect, with the upcoming event “Compass to Carnage” also being postponed. Patch 2.4.3 will now arrive on November 12, 2025, while the event “Compass to Carnage” has been rescheduled to November 25 and will run until December 2, 2025.

You can watch a video about Diablo 4 here:

Season 10 in Diablo 4 macht endlich wieder Spaß

Waiting for the big grind

What kind of event is this? The “Compass to Carnage” event is a kind of farming action by the developers aimed at helping players progress faster through the current endgame of Season 10. The drop rates of items have been massively increased, and there are increased chaos waves with each run, which will lead to much more loot.

Additionally, players will receive extra Aether when sealing Chaos Rifts, which can then be used to farm endgame gear. The event is essentially a big farming action where players can quickly go through the content of Season 10 “Infernal Chaos” again.

How are fans reacting to the event itself? Fans are not particularly excited about the event. They had hoped for other, better bonuses. They feel that the developers do not understand what the true bottleneck of the season is. They are writing on Reddit:

  • silvercel: “I have 100 of the 10 waves in my inventory. Don’t need more of them. Bring back the double whisper chests.”
  • Old-Tourist8173: “And bring back the treasure goblins.”
  • yeehawyippie: “I’m really not sure why they think it’s a good idea to give players more compasses when pretty much everyone who plays this season for more than a week has more than enough compasses. Do they even play their own game? Also, the infernal warp bonus still doesn’t work…”
  • DontCareTho: “The increased drop rate is probably more for the newer players who might be returning, to make it easier for them to get into the game.”

The postponement of the event is unlikely to cause great sadness among the veterans. The bonuses appeal more to players who haven’t played Season 10 yet and want to check out Diablo 4 again.

With the postponement of Patch 2.4.3 and the “Compass to Carnage” event, a small chain reaction has formed that could also delay the ARPG for future patches. Whether this will really happen or if Blizzard will deliver the next patch on time remains to be seen. An outlook on Season 11 can be found here: Diablo 4: All new uniques in Season 11 with effects

Der neue Film über Frankenstein auf Netflix ist nicht perfekt, übertrifft das Original aber beim wichtigsten Teil 

On Netflix, the new film by Guillermo del Toro premieres on November 7th. It is an adaptation of the well-known novel “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley, which has been adapted many times. What makes this version different – or even better?

Viktor Frankenstein is a legendary figure of horror literature. Perhaps even more famous is his monster, that creature he assembles from various body parts and then, in a bold attempt to play God, brings to life.

The story has been adapted numerous times, with the version from 1931, in which Boris Karloff played the monster, being the most well-known. When people think of the creature, they likely envision him. It is not easy to come close to this adaptation.

Boris Karloff Frankenstein

Guillermo del Toro, director of Pans Labyrinth, Shape of Water, Hellboy or the short-lived franchise Pacific Rim, has taken on a real mammoth project when he decided to adapt this story again. He has emphasized multiple times in the past what a big fan he is of the source material, and that the old films are very close to his heart. For him, Frankenstein’s monster is a personal messiah, he said in an interview with NPR.

On Netflix, his version of Frankenstein premieres on November 7th. MeinMMO author Christoph Waldboth has already seen the film in a limited theatrical release and explains what it does better than the old classic.

Select a MMO video…

The Human Monster

Is the film worth it? Del Toro tells in the first half of the film about how Viktor Frankenstein grows up, becomes a scientist, and eventually develops ambitions to create an artificial being.

He succeeds, of course. The monster lives, but it is frightening, incredibly powerful, and at the same time unpredictable. Its intelligence is quite limited, and it only learns to speak after some time.

The second half of the film is then told from the perspective of this creature. And here it quickly becomes clear what the great strength of del Toro’s adaptation is. It places the monster itself even more in the center than the original from 1931. Its depiction by actor Jacob Elordi feels profoundly human.

We can read its thoughts and emotions anytime from its face. The monster is not a patched-together abomination but deep within it sleeps a human soul. This allows us, the viewers, to form a much deeper bond with the character than was possible with Boris Karloff’s performance.

After all, the creature’s fate is very tragic: it realizes that wounds and other injuries cannot harm it. The monster is immortal but longs for death. It is lonely in life and is always chased or shunned by people.

Guillermo del Toro makes it so that the creature grows on you. This is not really surprising, since the director is an expert at bringing fascinating monsters to the screen. Just think of the faun from Pans Labyrinth or the amphibian man from Shape of Water. They are all portrayed by real actors in costumes, not by soulless CGI figures from a computer. Del Toro once again shows that his heart beats for the monsters on the fringes of society – even when they do not always act correctly.

A Feast for the Senses, but Not Perfect

Is the film flawless? No, not at all. But first, let’s talk about the positives: Besides the monster itself, the audiovisual presentation of the story is especially commendable. Every image looks simply breathtaking, whether it shows magnificent castles, filthy basements, or laboratories filled with limbs. This is also typical of del Toro – stylistically, the director simply knows how to do it. A particular highlight is the sequence where the monster is brought to life during a terrible storm.

Things are different when it comes to the pacing. The two halves of the film differ significantly from each other. While the first half explains a lot and the characters become real chatterboxes, the second half is dominated by silence. When the story follows the monster, it becomes much more atmospheric and quieter, unfortunately, this abrupt change in pace feels a bit awkward.

Some characters, like the newly added character played by Christoph Waltz, were unnecessary – they unnecessarily inflate the already long two and a half hours. Acting-wise, especially Oscar Isaac as Frankenstein and the aforementioned Jacob Elordi as the monster make a good impression.

Who is the film suitable for? Those who know Frankenstein should give the new version a chance. It doesn’t introduce much new or different but offers a deeper monster as an added value. Those who do not know the story should definitely take a look, as it has lost none of its fascination since its first appearance in 1818.

One thing should be said: Do not expect a horror film. Guillermo del Toro clearly places the tragic character and the philosophical thoughts of the source material in the foreground. This leads to eerie moments, but real horror is hardly present, even though there are some hard spikes of violence.

If at all possible, watch the film in one of the last theater showings (big screen!) otherwise choose the straightforward way through Netflix. Unfortunately, not all of the Mexican director’s works have been successful at the box office, and one particular failure still bothers him: Guillermo del Toro still regrets that one of his most important films flopped so badly

Twitch streamer wants to annoy his teammates from Craft Attack 13 with boats, does not let himself be stopped by a ban

This year at the Craft Attack event, the Twitch streamer Hugo “LetsHugo” Goedert is participating. He has devised something quite special as content for his streams: He pranks his Twitch colleagues with a massive number of boats.

Who annoys whom? The streamer LetsHugo is taking part in the Minecraft project Craft Attack 13. The project unites 100 German-speaking Twitch streamers in Minecraft live on Twitch and gives everyone the opportunity to play Minecraft as they wish.

LetsHugo seems to have made it his mission to keep his teammates on their toes with boats. He is building a large number of boats to then unleash them on the world. He has already released about 300 boats at his Twitch colleague Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris and his storage.

For his pranks, he has already been banned by the server admins. The ban message simply stated “Boats,” which was explanation enough. This was already the second ban within a few days that LetsHugo received from the Craft Attack 13 server. Previously, he had shown the participant list of the project, which was actually prohibited, and as punishment, he was not allowed to witness the start of Craft Attack 13 for 24 hours.

These are the 5 most relevant German streamers on Twitch in 2024, according to Google

“We are going to have problems”

What is the current “boat prank” by LetsHugo? The recent ban from the Craft Attack server does not prevent the Luxembourg streamer from continuing with his boats. In his Twitch stream yesterday, LetsHugo took it even further with his boats, but this time for a good cause.

He planned to unleash an even larger number of boats on the server and stated: For every Euro that viewers donated, he would create one boat. A total of 3,446 Euro in donations for the Make-A-Wish Foundation were collected, which LetsHugo then had to “convert” into boats.

LetsHugo told his viewers beforehand: “I honestly tell you: We are going to have problems starting from 1,500 [boats].” (Source: Twitch at 15:49:13)

First, LetsHugo placed the boats in a pile, but even then the game started to lag a bit and the FPS suffered. However, this was only noticeable in LetsHugo’s area at first.

It got worse when he finally “released” the boats. To prevent the server from crashing, he let the boats go in stages, which caused lags but no crashes.

The boats were pushed over the edge of LetsHugo’s tower and fell down into the world. This caused the server to struggle with the numerous boats and start to stutter.

You can watch the result on TikTok:

https://www.tiktok.com/@twitchdailyss_de/video/7568980233374780694

The boats shot through the construction so far that they landed on the Minecraft property of other Twitch streamers.

So does Trymacs, who seems to pretend to be playing another game in Minecraft: While Twitch streamers are building bases and experiencing adventures, Trymacs pretends to be playing another game in the Minecraft project

A Dungeon Master of Dungeons & Dragons unexpectedly adopts the “God of Chaos” during his vacation, but he has significantly more hair than the original

Many groups have their clear favorites when it comes to NPCs in their campaigns of Dungeons & Dragons. However, for a game master, this love goes a bit further and influences his real life.

Whom did the game master adopt? Content creator tbdnd_ shares his unusual vacation story on TikTok. He and his girlfriend unexpectedly and very spontaneously adopted a dog during their trip. And not just any dog, as he is connected to the absolute favorite NPC of his DnD group.

It is a black mixed breed that was housed in a large animal shelter in a city they passed by during their travels. His girlfriend looked online out of curiosity to see which animals they were currently adopting, and fate took its course.

The God of Chaos, living up to his name

Why did they adopt the dog? When his girlfriend looked at the housed animals online, she discovered a dog named “Cohen”. A name that has a special significance for the game master. It belongs to an NPC who has been accompanying his group since their first campaign and has been their absolute favorite NPC for years.

They seized this stroke of fate to take a spontaneous look at the animals in the shelter. They met Cohen and immediately fell in love with him. In no time, they decided to take the black fluffball, who is probably an energetic mix of Labrador and Border Collie, home with them.

It has been over a year since they unexpectedly and spontaneously took this as a sign of fate and adopted Cohen. Cohen, the God of Chaos – is now also on the tag of the dog’s collar. Because in their campaign, he is exactly that. And even the way he came to his family does justice to his name.

Here you can admire Cohen, the God of Chaos yourself:

How is the story received by the community? Around 4,657 likes and 26 comments appreciate the story (as of: 05.11.2025, 11:00 AM). Among them are many users who are very happy for the dog and the family, but others are also curious:

  • Yasmin Bock writes: “How did your D&D group react to Cohen? I need to know.”
  • dewdropmakes says: “You need a big plush D20 so he can roll for the campaign.”
  • Blublu remarks: “Oh dear, as the owner of a Labrador-Border-Collie mix, I can say: They are chaos incarnate, so the name fits.”
  • Brian E. Bay suggests: “Now you have to include him in a campaign.”
  • OmniRoll congratulates: “Sometimes you can roll a natural 20 without using a die. Congratulations!”

But not only NPCs can accompany players for many long years. Sometimes it is also special favorite dice, running gags, or themes that groups love so much that they would like to have them with them forever. For example, a player used the same piece of paper as a character sheet for several years, as you can see here: A thrifty player uses the same paper as character sheet in Dungeons & Dragons for 3 years and even amazes the community with it

Players who spend money on flops like Concord or Anthem should be better protected – Fans of New World feel this

On a political stage, the insufficient protection of consumers spending money on games that ultimately turn out to be flops and go offline is currently under discussion. There are more than enough recent examples like Anthem or New World.

What is the problem? More and more games rely on service models and require online connectivity. Buyers of such a product do not purchase the game itself but only the right to use it. If the servers of that game go offline, the purchase is rendered useless. The same applies to in-game offerings acquired through microtransactions.

This is particularly problematic because users often cannot foresee how long the service will continue to run at the time of investment. There are plenty of examples:

After the announcement of the quasi-end of New World, many players on community platforms expressed their frustration, having invested money into the game based on the very positive hype surrounding the MMORPG at the time. Their disappointment grew when they realized their money had gone into a practically dead product.

The government says the right things but (still) does nothing

What is the government discussing? As eurogamer.net reports, the British House of Commons has now debated improvements in consumer protection for video games and the preservation of games. During the discussions and statements, members of parliament mentioned games like Concord and Anthem as cautionary examples.

One MP is quoted in the Eurogamer report as follows:

A current example is Concord, a game released for PlayStation 5 and Windows in August 2024. After a disappointing launch, Sony Interactive Entertainment made the business decision to discontinue the game. To their credit, they refunded all purchases, but that is not always the case.

I know that esteemed members will agree with me that publishers who fail to clearly state the lifespan of a game at the time of sale must be held accountable.

That is why I welcome the enhanced consumer protection measures, including the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act of 2024, which came into effect earlier this year. This legislation rightly requires retailers to provide consumers with clear, timely, and accurate information, including the longevity and functionality of digital products.

Another MP adds: “Gamers still feel a deep sense of personal ownership because they invest more than just money. They invest time, effort, imagination, and friendship. When a game is discontinued without warning, that investment is lost.”

Despite overwhelming support in the House of Commons, no measures have yet been initiated or passed to modify consumer rights or ensure the sustainable preservation of games.

Currently, one still has to rely on initiatives from manufacturers and platform owners. One example is the “Preservation Program” from CD Projekt and gog.com, which already includes 250 classic games.

Wasn’t this already a big topic this year? Exactly! In summer, we reported on the initiative “Stop Killing Games”, which was initiated by YouTuber Ross Scott and supported by many content creators and players.

A father is supposed to mount the child’s computer on the wall, takes it literally, now everyone is angry – But the community laughs about something else

A gaming PC ends up high on the wall, but that’s not where the computer should be. The community is amused by the communication problems of a father and how the PC is hanging on the wall: namely anything but straight.

A family father hangs his son’s gaming PC on the wall. Only later does he realize that he probably misunderstood his wife. But it’s not just the communication chaos that entertains the community, but also the way the PC ends up hanging on the wall.

Computer is not just a Computer

What exactly did the father do? The family father reports on Reddit that his wife had asked him to mount their child’s gaming PC on the wall. Literally, his wife is said to have said: “Please mount the child’s computer to the wall to clear space on the desk.”

For the father, it’s clear: The gaming PC must be meant by computer. So he mounts it high above the table. Only then does he realize that he has taken it too literally. Because his wife meant the monitor with computer, not the case with the hardware. Now everyone is mad: the child and wife because the PC is up there, and he himself because he only meant well.

What I heard: Hang computer on wall.

What she meant: MOUNT MONITOR to wall.

Now both are angry.

At least he still has to connect the PC. He explains that he still has an external power switch and a few long cables.

But the community is still laughing about something else. Because the computer is hanging on the wall, but anything but neatly. It gives the viewer the impression that the PC wants to crush the person underneath at any moment. Someone writes: “Looks damn weird, but it’s functional.”

This is noticed even by the father, who later makes another post on Reddit, in which he writes: “Alright, alright – I went to the garage and built a makeshift support so that you can all sleep peacefully … at least for now.”

Thus, he has at least solved the problem that the PC no longer hangs crookedly on the wall.

What ultimately caused the failure? Who is ultimately to blame for the whole chaos is probably something no one can say. One user says, “It’s always a problem to call a monitor a computer.” Others, however, reply that the father could have at least asked again. Others see the fault with the wife, who could have at least checked the assignment, because then it wouldn’t have been the PC that went on the wall, but the monitor as desired.

A gamer built his gaming PC into the outer wall of a house for a school project. What looks impressive does actually have a purpose: the owner wants to cool his PC with outside air: User builds his gaming PC into the wall, letting it cool brilliantly – “Aren’t you afraid someone could steal it?”

„Endlich ein würdiger Gegner für Steve“: Minecraft bringt neuen DLC zu Dragon Ball Z, verpasst Goku und Piccolo eine Voxel-Optik

To the surprise of some fans, Minecraft has released a new expansion. From now on, you can fight alongside Son-Goku and his friends from Dragon Ball Z.

What kind of DLC is this? The creative team from Cyclone has created a new DLC for Minecraft. After expansions like the Minions and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story, now a complete expansion for Dragon Ball Z follows.

You can choose from many characters from the anime and engage in battles with them. Playable characters include the hero Son-Goku as well as villains like Freezer and supporting characters like C18, who is an android. Each character is supposed to have their own abilities, and some can even become Super Saiyans.

With the characters, you can either plunge into battle alone or participate in a cooperative tournament. There are even 5v5 battles. Additionally, there are skins and a scouter for your playable character, which theoretically allows you to measure an opponent’s power level.

The trailer shows that there are, in addition to new items from the anime, even blocks that look like the Dragon Balls. The characters also get the typical voxel look (pixels in 3D).

Locations and characters from the anime

What does it have in common with the anime? In addition to the characters, there are also certain locations that you probably recognize from the anime. These include places like God’s Palace or the valley where Vegeta rampaged as an angry warrior in the anime.

What do fans say about it? Under a trailer on YouTube, many fans share their thoughts on the new DLC. Some commenters are excited about the new expansion. However, others criticize that the frame rate never stays at a constant 60 FPS. Even in the trailer, this is noticeable.

There are also some users who write rather funny comments. One viewer comments that Sparking Zero looks good – referring to the latest installment. Another user finds it great that there is finally a worthy opponent for Steve, the player character from Minecraft.

When is it released and how much does it cost? The DLC is now available on the Minecraft Marketplace. It can be purchased for either 1510 in-game coins or 8.99 US dollars. According to the Xbox Store, this corresponds to a price of 7.39 €.

Currently, Minecraft is especially in the spotlight due to a streamer event. In the Craft Attack 13 project, many streamers play the block-building adventure in a special way. One Twitch streamer even turns the title into a completely different game: While Twitch streamers build bases and embark on adventures, Trymacs pretends to play a different game in the Minecraft project.

In Battlefield 6, a new mode floods you with massive XP, but only because it replaces your enemies and teammates

Battlefield 6 has implemented a new mode that is mainly intended to lead you to more relaxed gameplay. This mode is also suitable for quickly gaining a lot of XP.

What mode is it? It is Casual Breakthrough, a new mode that has been playable in Battlefield 6 since November 1, 2025. The mode takes a different approach than familiar modes, as it replaces a large part of the playing soldiers with bots.

In general, these are smaller teams that compete against each other. At first, it sounds a bit strange that Battlefield 6 already relies on bots. But there is an idea behind it to help many players.

Start video
REDSEC zeigt in der ersten Runde, warum Millionen Spieler Battle Royale lieben, aber vergisst nicht, dass es trotzdem ein Battlefield ist

Casual Breakthrough is the perfect mode for XP

Why is Casual Breakthrough so good? In Casual Breakthrough, two teams of 24 soldiers each compete against each other. Among these 24, however, there are only 8 real players, with the rest being taken by bots on both teams.

You might think there is a catch because bots are not always the smartest teammates, which could lead to an easier game, but there isn’t one. The mode has been specifically designed to provide you with relaxed rounds.

The bonus: You can collect challenges and XP for Battle Pass, weapons, as well as your account. Especially for those who find the grind in standard modes tedious, Casual Breakthrough is recommended. Because here you can leave the round with a lot of kills, drastically increasing your progress.

If you think that the bots are just cannon fodder, you are mistaken. They act intelligently to a certain degree. They drop ammunition on request and can even revive you if you have fallen in battle. Some fans even say on Reddit that these bots are more reliable than real players.

Why are such bot lobbies still so controversial? Whether in Fortnite or Call of Duty: Many associate the use of bots with a decline in player numbers. Studios try to reduce matchmaking time to ensure lobbies are always full of players.

This may be true, but in the case of Battlefield 6, it’s more about giving fans a chance to effectively complete challenges and level up without feeling pressured to improve. Fun is the priority here, and not everyone is eager to jump into every round after work just because the opposing team is led by former Delta Force soldiers.

Have you been able to test the mode, and if so, what do you think of it? Are the rounds more relaxed for you, or did you have bad luck with matchmaking? We would love to hear your opinion in the comments.

Since New World has nothing left to lose, there is now a new weapon that is not actually finished yet

The developers of New World have released a new update for the MMORPG after all. There is now a new weapon that was probably supposed to be released later.

Are there still updates coming for New World? No, the developers of New World will soon leave Amazon Games, and the MMORPG will remain at its current state without any further updates.

Nevertheless, there has been another major patch. However, this simultaneously proves that New World has no future.

You can learn more about the end of New World here:

New update brings unfinished weapon

What kind of weapon is this? The developers of New World have now released a new weapon, the daggers. With the daggers, players can sneak around in stealth and fight enemies at high speed.

The daggers rely on combo points. Each hit builds combo points that can be used to perform abilities. Additionally, a higher number of points can further enhance the abilities.

The stealth talent tree makes you harder to detect and provides extra damage to surprised enemies and those affected by your roots or slows. As is common with stealth classes, there is also a damage bonus when you attack your enemies from behind.

Why is the weapon coming now? The developers of New World had been working on the weapon for some time. Now that New World is history and the next major update or expansion is not coming, the developers decided to release the new weapon anyway.

At the same time, they emphasize on NewWorld.com that the daggers are not yet perfectly developed and that there are still bugs and issues that will likely not be fixed. Nevertheless, the developers wanted players to be able to play with the new weapon.

The new daggers are likely the last major update for New World that the developers will release before their departure from Amazon Games Studios. If any further updates are unexpectedly released, they likely originated before the MMORPG’s end.

Although New World will no longer be developed, there is actually no reason to stop playing the MMORPG. The game is set to run at least until January 1, 2027, if not beyond. There is also another update: The announced end of New World drives so many players away on Steam that the developers must react

Jeff Bezos claims that there are certain types of employees who could never be replaced by AI

AI scares a lot of people: Now Jeff Bezos has revealed which employees can never be replaced by AI: inventors and individuals with great inventiveness.

Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, stated at the Italian Tech Week that in the age of AI, one type of employee remains irreplaceable: people with a genuine inventor mindset, who can creatively solve problems and combine new ideas.

He supports his claim with anecdotes about his grandfather, his own role as an “inventor” at Amazon, and insights that Amazon specifically looks for employees with exactly such skills.

Select a MMO video…

Bezos’ grandfather as a great role model for inventiveness

At the Italian Tech Week, the Amazon founder reported that his grandfather was able to solve any problem on his ranch in Texas by himself, without relying on outside help. He recounted:

He bought a bulldozer for about $5,000 because it was completely broken. We spent an entire summer repairing it. To get the transmission out, we had to build our own crane. And that’s why he had incredible adaptability. He believed he could solve any problem. And I watched him do it.

He describes himself as an “inventor” who generates many ideas in a short time and used to specifically ask candidates about something they have invented to identify inventive spirit:

When I interview candidates, I ask them to give me an example of something they have invented. You have to select people who enjoy inventing and thinking innovatively.

It’s not about individuals having patents or other inventions. Rather, it is about inventing practical new processes, ideas, and connections that did not exist before and which make things easier.

Jeff Bezos also talks about space during the Italian Tech Week. He believes that soon millions of people will live in space. They wouldn’t have to, because robots are much cheaper. And robotics has made tremendous progress in recent years: Jeff Bezos expects that soon millions of people will live in space, even though they are not needed up there

After the Netflix documentary, the heartbreaking story of the WoW player Ibelin is now being filmed – with stars like Anthony Hopkins

Last year, the Netflix documentary “The Incredible Life of Ibelin” told the touching story of a player from World of Warcraft. Soon, a film adaptation with a renowned cast is set to hit the big screen.

What is known about the film? As reported by variety.com, Morten Tyldum directs the film adaptation of Ibelin’s story. Like the Netflix documentary “The Incredible Life of Ibelin” from last year, the film is also based on the life of Mats Steen, a Norwegian boy who suffered from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (more about the disease on Wikipedia).

Director Morten Tyldum is also Norwegian. His biggest success so far is the Oscar nomination for Best Director with his film “The Imitation Game.” Additionally, films like Passengers and series like Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan and Silo are part of his filmography. Filming is expected to take place in Europe in 2026. So far, confirmed cast members include:

  • Charlie Plummer (Boardwalk Empire, Moonfall, The Long Walk)
  • Stephen Graham (Gangs of New York, Band of Brothers, Snatch, Boardwalk Empire, The Irishman)
  • Toni Collette (The Sixth Sense, Mickey 17, Knives Out, Hereditary)
  • Isabela Merced (Sicario 2, Alien: Romulus, Superman)
  • Sir Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Amistad, Nixon, The Father, Westworld)

The trailer for the Netflix documentary “The Incredible Life of Ibelin”:

The Fantastic Life of Ibelin – Trailer for the Emotional Documentary about a Story from the WoW Community

A touching story

What is the film based on? On bbc.com an article titled “My disabled son’s amazing gaming life in World of Warcraft” appeared on February 7, 2019. It was here that the touching story of Mats Steen was first told.

Mats was confined to a wheelchair due to his illness, and doctors believed it was unlikely that the boy would live to see his 20th birthday. His parents, in turn, feared that their son would never find friends or leave a mark on the world because of his illness.

At the age of eleven, Mats discovered World of Warcraft. Although his parents accepted the new hobby, they never truly understood it. With great concern, they observed that their son was increasingly spending nights at the computer.

What they did not realize: Mats found in Azeroth something that had been denied to him in real life: a community and friends where he could forget about his illness for a while. In WoW, he was simply Lord Ibelin Redmoore, a respected member of a WoW guild. Someone who could listen well and with whom one could have fun.

Also worth reading:

von Niko Hernes

How does the story end? When Mats died on November 18, 2014, his father had the idea to leave a message for Mats’ fellow players through the blog his son had been maintaining for some time. There, the father explained what had happened and how to reach him. He feared that no one would respond…

But the opposite was true. Many guildmates sought contact and expressed their condolences and grief in messages. They shared personal memories and emphasized how important the terminally ill boy had become to the community over time. Many of Mats’ friends even boarded a plane to attend the funeral.

All this made the parents realize how important World of Warcraft had become for Mats and what kind of life he had led despite his illness, one filled with friends and many wonderful moments. He had managed to leave his mark on the world. Mats was 25 years old.

How important MMORPGs can be for many people is shown not only by Mats’ story. In June 2024, we reported about Jasmynrose29, who shared her severe illness in a post and how The Elder Scrolls Online has helped her: Seriously ill woman shares with the community what ESO means to her, the reactions are heartwarming

The player exploits a pricing error, but the seller handles the situation quite cleverly

A Reddit user scored the PC case deal of the year due to a pricing error. The seller even admits the mistake and does not take the perhaps expected usual route. 

What did the Reddit user report? The user GOGONUT6543 (via Reddit) found an absolute bargain for the Fractal North Midi Tower-PC case. At the British PC accessories shop Gotraka, the case, which usually costs 155 British pounds, was reduced to 20 British pounds. The original price corresponds to about 177 euros. This means a drop to approximately 23 euros (based on current exchange rates as of 04.11.2025). 

In the comments on the Reddit post, users agree that normally a seller would not let something like this go. But the seller decided differently: Gotraka allowed the transaction to proceed and even sent the user a coupon for their next purchase. 

Thus, the seller seems to have made a pretty clever move that not everyone would have accepted.

Start video

Surprise when opening 

How did the seller react? Gotraka took a rather unusual approach. First, they informed the lucky buyers about the pricing error in the webshop. At the same time, they assured that all users who purchased the tower at the wrong price could keep it.

According to Gotraka, integrity is more important than profit. Thus, the company sends a clear message: They stand by their mistakes, and made all the customers who ordered during the pricing error happy. 

Additionally, all affected buyers received a five percent coupon for their next order. On top of that, there was also a thank you message from Gotraka founder Amar Tanna. 

A presumably pretty clever PR move by the company. Even if they bear the costs of their pricing error: With the hashtag tag@gotraka the company tried to spread the story further. Furthermore, they could promote their upcoming PC configurator through the error – this was mentioned in the explanatory email.

Currently, Gotraka does not ship to Germany. Thus, presumably, German customers miss out. The unintended discount has also been rectified in the meantime and is no longer available. 

What does the case offer? The Fractal North Midi Tower is a PC case and shines with features like good airflow, ATX support, and compact design. The well-known YouTube channel GamersNexus describes the case as having “excellent design.” It is complemented by wooden rods in the front of the case, which serve as both ventilation and design element. 

The user scored a bargain, as the case offers excellent value for money and is sensibly constructed. Overall, the design has already excited many PC gamers upon release: Manufacturer shows stylish case, gamers are thrilled: Great design! It goes directly onto my wish list 

If you are one of the lucky ones who managed to snag a Fractal North Midi, then do not make the same mistake as colleague Benedikt Schlotmann: Do not swap out multiple parts of your PC at once during the upgrade. Be cautious and test each part individually instead. Otherwise, you will be frustrated for hours in the end: I made a mistake while building a PC that is not mentioned in any manual

Fans are eagerly waiting for Season 3 of a popular anime, but they already know they will hate the ending

Oshi no Ko is one of the highlights that anime fans can look forward to in Winter 2026. Now there is a new trailer for the upcoming season. However, readers of the manga know how the story ends – and their excitement is dampened.

What is this new trailer about? The Crunchyroll team has uploaded the second trailer for Season 3 of Oshi no Ko on YouTube. We see numerous characters we already know from Seasons 1 and 2 – of course including the two protagonists Aqua and Ruby.

Ruby’s eyes have still turned black due to the events of Season 2, which clearly shows that she is pursuing her own plan. Meanwhile, she poses as a silly reporter who is on the trail of the myth of a real Pikachu.

Kana and Akane, who are vying for Aqua’s affection, are back as well, along with the idol Mem-Cho. Unfortunately, the trailer is currently only available in the original Japanese version without subtitles.

Fans look forward to Season 3, but not to the ending

What do fans say about the trailer? Even with the new images for Season 3 of the anime, many fans are excited about the upcoming content. This is confirmed by the ranking on MyAnimeList, one of the largest rating sites in this area. Here, Oshi no Ko is the fourth most anticipated anime, coming after sequels to Frieren and Jujutsu Kaisen. Even MeinMMO demon Cortyn can hardly wait for the season.

However, the excitement is dampened for some fans, specifically those who have already read the manga. The story of Oshi no Ko is complete, and many readers are not satisfied with the ending.

A user on reddit writes that this season should be good, but he has to admit that the ending of the manga slightly dampens his enthusiasm for the series.

Why do they hate the ending? (WARNING, major spoiler!) 

Fans on reddit find it exaggerated that Aqua ends up killing himself and his father. Furthermore, Ruby’s death hits so hard that she becomes as manipulative a liar as her mother Ai. Fans say this is a bit too sad and there is no lesson that Ruby learned from her mother’s behavior.

Where can I watch Season 3 of Oshi no Ko? If you want to watch the anime about the idol industry, you can do so on Crunchyroll starting January 14, 2026, with simulcast.

From the very first episode, Oshi no Ko was considered a hype anime. This is mainly because the first episode is particularly bittersweet and ends with a drastic climax. MeinMMO demon Cortyn explains what lies behind the fascination with the anime: If everyone is currently bothering you with “You have to watch this anime”, there are good reasons for it

  • double the amount of XP for nice, great, or excellent throws
  • double the amount of Stardust for catching Pokémon
  • Sheinux* can appear in the wild

There is still some time until the event starts. However, until then, there are various events, raids, and other content that await you in the game. You can find out which ones exactly and when you can find them in our overview with all events in November 2025 in Pokémon GO.
