The difficulty level of Souls games has been a topic of discussion for years, but with Elden Ring, these discussions have intensified due to the hype. While many Souls fans appreciate the game’s toughness, others see it as a barrier that excludes some gamers. What do you think?
This has led to discussions in the community, as not everyone believes Elden Ring should be that difficult. Some gamers feel excluded by a game that many reviewers describe as a “masterpiece”.
Some players are therefore calling for an Easy Mode for greater accessibility. However, not all fans of the Souls games like this idea.

What do players who demand an easier difficulty say? Elden Ring has received a score of 94 on PC and even a 96 on PS5 from reviewers on Metacritic. It is thus one of the highest-rated games ever.
However, many players have no chance to get into the game because they struggle with the high difficulty. Some can’t even defeat the first bosses due to physical disabilities.
One of the advocates for an easier difficulty is the Austrian Pia “Shurjoka” Stolz. She states on Twitter that she is a huge fan of difficult games, but believes Elden Ring and other games should still offer an easier difficulty to bring all gamers together.
According to Shurjoka, there are already enough barriers in the world, so there shouldn’t be such barriers in gaming as well. Everyone should be able to enjoy a game, regardless of difficulty level.
Souls Games Have a Reputation and Flair That Would Otherwise Be Lost
What do players who are against an easier mode say? Souls games have always been difficult and should remain so. This is one of the main arguments from Elden Ring fans who oppose an Easy Mode.
For them, the high difficulty is a feature that differentiates the series from other role-playing games in the world.
Our colleague Julius Busch from GameStar mentions that it is a special feeling to complete a game that is difficult. However, that feeling would be absent if it were merely about finishing a higher difficulty level.
He is not against inclusion in gaming but sees the unique phenomenon of Souls games also in their high difficulty level. Players had to adapt to the game, not the other way around. This is something that many modern games have lost.

We have created a survey with six options for you to choose from. The selection cannot be reversed, so think carefully about how you want to vote:
We also invite you to discuss this subject with us in the comments. How do you perceive the difficulty of Elden Ring? And would an Easy Mode help or take away the uniqueness of the game?
We have noticed that many players of Elden Ring present themselves as skilled players, but in reality, only 54% have even managed to defeat the first boss:
The World First race in World of Warcraft is starting. If you want to watch the live kill of the Jailer, you need to follow these streams.
In World of Warcraft, the “hot phase” is starting again, where tens of thousands of players watch as a few professionals die to a boss for hours – the World First race is coming. This time it is against the big boss of the Shadowlands, the Jailer.
Why is this exciting? The “World First Race” is always a highlight of the respective patch for many WoW fans. The best guilds in the world try to complete the new raid on the highest difficulty first. The “Mausoleum of the First” comes with 11 bosses, making it a rather extensive raid.
As has become usual, you can follow the race for the coveted “World First Kill” of the Jailer live at mythic difficulty.
A few years ago, this race always took place behind closed doors – raiders preferred to keep to themselves to not reveal their strategies and possibly assist other guilds. However, it has now become a big event where several guilds cooperate to deliver an exciting show. The basic rivalry for the first kill is still present and has already led to some exciting neck-and-neck races in the last raids.
Who will defeat the Jailer first?
Which guilds are participating? Some of the most famous guilds attempting to secure a World First Kill or at least a good position in the global rankings are:
Echo (EU)
Method (EU)
Pieces (EU)
Aversion (EU)
Team Liquid (NA) (formerly known as “Complexity-Limit”)
Big Dumb Golden Guardians (NA)
Additionally, there are some Chinese guilds that usually take place a bit away from the media coverage.
Where can you watch? Most guilds stream their progress live – accompanied by casters who always inform about the latest status. Some of the most important streams are:
When does it start? For the American guilds, the race starts tonight (March 8, 2022), as the weekly reset takes place on the US realms. The European guilds will have to wait another night; they will start with a few hours’ delay on March 9, 2022, in the early morning hours.
The time difference occurs because the maintenance is performed at different times in the various regions. Therefore, while the US guilds have a slight head start, they often also face bugs and issues that are fixed by the time the EU starts.
How long will it last? This is still uncertain. In theory, such a race could be over within a few hours, but in most cases, the event stretches over several days and sometimes even weeks. Special critical points are usually the weekly reset on Tuesday (America) and Wednesday (Europe), as characters can gain new loot from the reward chamber here and soon wear several legendary items. This leads to a sudden increase in character power and can make the necessary percentage points to defeat a boss.
The race is particularly exciting: A special feature this time is that the last 3 bosses of the Mausoleum of the First, namely the Lords of Terror, Rygelon and the Jailer, have not been shown before. There were no public tests on these bosses, so the pro guilds are going into the fights more or less “blind.” It may take a while for the best players in the world to refine their tactics to overcome the last bosses and thus put an end to the era of Shadowlands.
Are you already looking forward to the race? Who is your favorite?

The new Nintendo Switch OLED features the name-giving OLED display. But what about burn-in effects? A YouTuber let the Switch run for a long time until the first burn-in effects appeared.
What is the Nintendo Switch OLED? The Nintendo Switch OLED is the latest model of Nintendo’s handheld console. Nintendo has equipped the model with an OLED display. The first reviews of the Switch OLED are also overwhelmingly positive, praising the good display and vibrant colors.
However, some users fear that the OLED display may not only have advantages. OLED displays have a risk for burn-in effects.
What is burn-in anyway? Burn-in on an OLED TV refers to static content such as TV logos or news tickers “burning in.” This leaves a sort of shadow on the image. This is due to the light crystals built into the display.
But how long does it take for the first things to burn into the display of the Nintendo Switch? Because even in some games, there are static menus. A YouTuber did the test to see how long it takes until the first problems arise.
After 3600 hours, there are first visible burn-in traces
What did the YouTuber do? The YouTuber Wulff Den let the Nintendo Switch run for about 5 months straight. He started “Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” and focused the display section on particularly bright lights. After a first test of about 2000 hours with the Switch OLED, there were no burn-in traces yet. But he kept the test running longer and has now reported on how his Switch is doing.
How strong are the traces? After about 3600 hours (around 150 days), you can see the first traces in the video. In the console’s menu, you can slightly make out the outlines of the game’s lights. However, you have to look closely to actually see the traces.
Wulff Den explains himself: “This is not something for which I would likely submit an RMA request [return].”
What happens during “burn-in”?: The YouTuber explains that it is not actually burn-in, but more of a “fading out.” This is because the display represents three subpixels (Blue, Green, and Red) per pixel. The red and green subpixels fade, while the blue pixels shine as strongly as before. The result is that certain areas have a very light blue tint, making the contours of the lights also visible in the menu.
How clear the traces are can be seen in the official YouTube video:

The YouTube video by Wulff Den on the Nintendo Switch OLED.
According to the YouTuber, you don’t have to worry about your Switch
What exactly does he say? Under the video, many users expressed their concerns or considered not buying a Switch OLED because of burn-in. For this reason, Wulff Den explains that there is no reason for concern.
Users do not need to worry if they leave their Switch online for a few extra hours or play in handheld mode for extended periods.
Also, games with lots of menus and a complex user interface (UI) should not be a cause for concern.
If you still worry about potential issues with the display of the Nintendo Switch OLED, we at MeinMMO have a tip for you to keep in mind:
In Pokémon GO, the Alola season has begun and brought trainers the first new monsters of Generation 7. Now, the reddit community is discussing upcoming C-Days and possible event moves of the new monsters. We at MeinMMO will show you what’s going on.
Which monsters are involved? Since March 1, 2022, the new season in Pokémon GO has been running under the name Alola season. For the next 3 months, everything will revolve around the Pokémon of Generation 7, that is, the Alola region. This includes monsters like Robball and Flamiau.
After the first new monsters have already been found in the game for a few days, some trainers are wondering which monsters will be found in the upcoming Community Days in April and May and which special moves they will learn for this occasion.
Thus, the reddit user GriffconII is already contemplating this and sharing his thoughts with the community.
3 event moves that trainers wish for
In his reddit post, the user GriffconII reflects on his thoughts regarding the new Gen 7 Pokémon and possible event moves. He asks for the community’s opinions and writes: “With the excitement around Gen 7 finally coming to fruition, a thought crossed my mind: what will the Community Day moves for the starters be?”.
He further explains that the Alola Pokémon have a range of special moves, of which the starter Pokémon are not excluded. In the past, starter Pokémon have typically learned moves like Flora Statue, Lohekanonade, and Aquahaubitze, but he hopes that it may be different for Alola.
From his perspective, it seems possible that the Alola starters could receive the following 3 event moves:
Silvarro (evolution of Bauz): Shadow Bind
Primarina (evolution of Robball): Foam Serenade
Fuegro (evolution of Flamiau): Dark Lariat
What does the community say about the special moves of the Alola starters?
His suggestion leads to much discussion in the reddit community. Some trainers would also be excited about the introduction of special moves. The reddit user duel_wielding_rouge could imagine that Niantic wants to implement a version of the Z-Moves in the game, where a release of the special moves would also be conceivable (via reddit.com).
What are Z-Moves? Z-Moves are special moves in the Pokémon series, introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon, which are associated with Generation 7. Z-Moves are particularly powerful and can therefore be useful in both the PvP league and raids.
They can be used once by each Pokémon during a battle. To trigger them, trainers need a Z-Ring and a Z-Crystal. However, both items are not yet available in Pokémon GO, and there are currently no concrete indications that they will be introduced soon.
What speaks against the release of special moves: Nevertheless, many reddit users also express their concerns. The reason for this is that Niantic has not yet introduced all special moves for many Pokémon from other regions, such as Hoenn.
For this reason, trainers like dabomerest suspect that the Alola starters will again get the typical moves, like the other starters before (via reddit.com).
Possible Pokémon in the upcoming C-Days
Furthermore, some trainers have doubts that the Alola region starter Pokémon will even be included in raids soon. Some reddit users are already speculating in the comments about which monsters could be the focus during the next C-Days (via reddit.com):
EcksEcks: “Since the Community Day with Sandan is just around the corner, I could imagine that we will see more C-Days for Kanto/Alola forms in the coming months (Vulpix, Digda, Sleima, Kleinstein, etc.)”
Teban54: “My prediction: Kleinstein and Sleima for April and May.”
Scary-Wishbone-3210: “I think you are close, except that we usually see something related to Easter in April. So if Owei gets a C-Day this year, it will be the next one. Then we would either get Sleima OR Kleinstein. After that, it will be the end of the Alola season. The other will come back later as a C-Day.”
Which monsters will actually appear during the two Community Days in April and May and whether the Alola starters might still receive their special moves remains to be seen. If there is new information from Niantic on this, you will of course find out here at MeinMMO.
Which Pokémon would you like to see for the last two Community Days during the Alola season? Do you think Niantic will resort to the Alola starters for this? And are you also hoping for the special moves? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
In the “Vanguard Royale” mode of Call of Duty: Warzone, you now have 50 health points more compared to the normal Battle Royale, which changes the requirements for weapons and equipment. Warzone expert Anthony “TrueGameData” Zachman has an optimal loadout for the mode, which we present to you on MeinMMO.
50 points more health not only changes the time-to-kill, but the gameplay flow is also slightly different
To make sure you are optimally prepared for the “new” Vanguard Royale, we present you an “Easy to Use” loadout from Warzone expert TrueGameData
Vanguard Royale: Complete Loadout for 300 HP
If easy hits are more important to you than the best time-to-kill, then you are in the right place.
MeinMMO shows you a complete loadout with setup recommendations for minimal recoil in Vanguard Royale with 300 health points. The recommendations come from data wizard “TrueGameData”.
We first show you the complete loadout and then discuss what makes the recommendations so strong and which weapons would also fit into the loadout.
Why were these weapons chosen? The Cooper Carbine loses almost the last bit of recoil with the shown setup. You get an extremely stable weapon that is very easy to play.
In terms of damage, the carbine only plays in the midfield. However, if most shots hit, it balances out again. As further range options, TrueGameData mentions:
Bren
DP27
KG40
STG44
As a secondary weapon, the expert chooses a submachine gun and has found with the Owen Gun setup a weapon that, according to him, is “the best SMG for a large portion of players”.
TrueGameData explains that the Owen Gun offers the best mix of recoil, damage per magazine, mobility, and time-to-kill.
As a downside, he sees the damage in the third damage range of the Owen Gun, with the setup starting around 17 meters. There, the time-to-kill increases sharply. But everything before that tears your opponents apart compared to the competition.
As further options, he sees in the Vanguard weapons only the Welgun.
If you want to see the complete English loadout analysis from TrueGameData yourself, then we embed his YouTube video here:

The well-known streamer Asmongold has a somewhat different opinion on WoW mobile games. Because although many in the community do not like the idea of mobile games for WoW , he defends the idea. It could enrich the Warcraft franchise overall if the developers bring the right games. What exactly he means by that can be found out here on MeinMMO.
Who is it about? The famous streamer Asmongold was for a long time the biggest WoW streamer on the internet. For many years he played World of Warcraft, but with Shadowlands, he first lost interest and played other games like Final Fantasy XIV or Lost Ark.
Nevertheless, he keeps checking in on WoW and has a clear opinion on various occurrences there. This includes an assessment of the recently announced mobile projects from Blizzard.
Start video
Career and life of Asmongold in 3 minutes – What makes him special?
What did he say? In a stream that, curiously, took place in a shaky treehouse during strong winds, Asmongold talked about mobile games in the Warcraft franchise. Because in early February, Blizzard announced in a quarterly report that they are working on several mobile games in the Warcraft world.
Asmongold fundamentally sees this positively.
I know that there are some of you who might be upset about this. You do not like it. But I am actually glad that [WoW mobile games] are coming. I am glad that they want to make a mobile game related to World of Warcraft.

What are his arguments? However, Asmongold does not want a cheap WoW cash grab game that is pay-to-win or a one-to-one implementation of the MMORPG on smartphones. “No one should be able to run a Mythic raid on a phone,” the streamer says.
Rather, he is into spin-off games that fit into the overall experience of WoW. He could imagine something like a tower defense game that has a clear WoW reference.
What is officially known? This is also supported by the fact that, although Asmongold talks about WoW games, the report from Blizzard only mentions “Warcraft games.” So it seems likely that they are actually more likely to be spin-off games in the Warcraft world and not a fully ported WoW version for mobile like on PC.
However, this is still all speculation at the moment, as officially we only know that several mobile games related to Warcraft are planned for 2022. Whether these will even be released in 2022 or only further developed this year is also left open by the report.
In Destiny 2, players who own the Witch Queen have the chance to obtain exotic glaives. Bungie teased some amazing shots beforehand, showcasing how cool the hybrid weapon is. However, players have tested the glaives and are disappointed.
What have players complained about? Players had already complained about the nerve-wracking grind. Certain weapons essential for the glaive quest simply did not drop. Guardians farmed for hours in the new activity “Urquell” – but to no avail.
Now that the Worlds First is over, Guardians have the opportunity to acquire the blueprint for the class-specific exotics. But when the forging began and players could test the new glaives, disappointment set in.
Tough grind for bad weapons
What is so bad about the exotic glaives? Unfortunately, the glaives cannot compete with their legendary versions. Many aspects are simply not refined yet:
To use the special ability, the glaive must be charged.
Charging requires 5–7 shots on an opponent to be fully charged.
If you use the special ability, all energy for blocking is wasted.
You have to sacrifice ammo and the ability to block in order to activate the glaive’s ultimate.
Glaive ultimates are too weak and not worth it for end-game content.
The new weapon class glaive
Many Guardians remain loyal to their legendary variant and prefer to stash their exotics in the vault. Since the hybrid is exotic in this case, players see no reason to waste their item slot on it. Instead, they opt for other exotics with better DPS potential, such as the Gjallarhorn or The Epic Prelude.
What exotic glaives are there? There are three exotic glaives that players can earn for each class.
Blade of the Accord – Hunter – Creates Arc shockwaves
Blade of the Action – Titan – Creates a small Titan bubble
Blade of the Intention – Warlock – Creates Noble rounds that seek and heal players
What do players say? Guardians are unimpressed with the exotic variants. They feel Bungie has launched a test run to see how the weapons are received in the community. Reddit user Ze_AwEsOmE_Hobo states:
Whenever we get a new weapon type, it feels less like a weapon type and more like a beta test. This is probably because they [Bungie] are never sure how the community will react. To avoid spending too many resources on full implementation, like sandbox additions, they are left in the dust like the sidearms.
Despite the community’s negative opinion, Bungie could still make many changes to make the glaives viable in the PvE meta. The Witch Queen is just beginning, and Bungie still has plenty of time to change the community’s opinions.
What do you think about the exotics? Do you also find them too weak? Or are they perfectly balanced and just need the right build? Or are you still waiting for the necessary weapons to drop from the Urquell? Let us know in the comments.

In FIFA 22, the new Title Update 7 has been announced. However, it seems quite small and brings hardly any new content or changes.
When is the update coming? Title Update 7 was announced on March 8th via Twitter. You can download it now for the PC version of FIFA 22 (via Twitter).
On consoles, players will likely have to wait for the new update. It usually takes a few days or even a week for new Title Updates to be released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
Overall, the update isn’t very large either. The patch notes only list a few changes that will be implemented with Update 7 in FIFA 22.
What’s included in the new Title Update 7 for FIFA 22?
This is what the new update brings: The patch notes are extremely concise. Only three points made it onto the list:
A new animation for the skill move “Heel Chop” has been added.
Some player portraits have been updated. Which ones, however, are not yet known.
And a bug has been fixed where “EA Trax Audio” was playing over the sound of EATV videos, even when the video was viewed in fullscreen.
Currently, no further changes are planned. Neither the gameplay nor other aspects of the game will be adjusted with Title Update 7. Accordingly, players are surprised that this is even classified as a Title Update.
This is what players are saying: On Twitter, the first reactions to the update seem rather puzzled. Normally, the patch notes for Title Updates in FIFA 22 are quite extensive and address things like gameplay changes, new content, and more. User “Mitch” simply commented on the new patch notes with “Is that it?” (via Twitter).
Other players commented that they wished for better passing accuracy or bug fixes. Especially considering the new feature of “Live Tuning Updates” in FIFA 22, which allows for smaller adjustments, players are wondering why a Title Update was released for these changes.
“Why is this even an update,” asks user ‘Gurps’, “what happened to Live Tuning Updates? This doesn’t need to be classified as a Title Update” (via Twitter).
Are there changes you wish for in FIFA 22? Or are you satisfied with the current gameplay? Let us know in the comments!
Since yesterday, a roadmap for Lost Ark has been circulating online, which, however, contains outdated information that is therefore incorrect. We at MeinMMO explain what it’s all about.
What was that roadmap all about? The currently circulating roadmap for Lost Ark contains information about the upcoming content until June. Specifically, it mentions updates in March, April, and May. However, the information available there is outdated and incorrect.
The content plan showed new Guardian Raids, the continent of South Vern, Legion Raids, and Abyss Raids. The Destroyer and the Arcanist were also announced as the first two new classes in the roadmap.
The situation regarding the big March Update with new story and new raid is currently somewhat unclear. This was also part of the roadmap, but was already announced in a separate post beforehand. Currently, we assume that this update will be released as planned.
The PR from Amazon confirmed to MeinMMO that all information in the circulating roadmap is outdated.A new roadmap is expected to follow at an unspecified time.
How is Amazon responding? Last night, the official Twitter account of Lost Ark posted a message. It states that they are revising the current roadmap and adjusting it better to the players’ progress.
Amazon also apologizes for the delay and announces a more up-to-date roadmap that will follow after the March update. The same information can also be found in the Lost Ark forum, communicated by community manager Roxx.

What are the players saying? The false roadmap and Amazon’s statement currently dominate the forum and reddit. Many users, however, were rather less enthusiastic about the announced features and are now happy that something can still change.
Other fans, however, saw in the roadmap exactly what they wanted and are now worried that other classes or content might come first. The only thing everyone currently agrees on is that they do not find Amazon’s communication optimal.
Furthermore, the community seems united in wanting to invest more money. The biggest demand right now is for new skins and cosmetic content for Lost Ark, immediately followed by new classes. Especially the Lance Master is often requested.
What are the fans saying? Many fans on reddit are worried about the pace at which Amazon is releasing new content. This could also be one of the reasons why the roadmap is being adjusted afterwards.
imthedan writes: “People are not reaching T3 as quickly as [Amazon] hoped. I think Western players are not as hardcore as the Koreans and enjoy horizontal progression more and in detail. I can well imagine that more classes and new power passes are now coming to the forefront.”
Robin_Vie further speculates: “I think it has to do with the supposed reworks of the classes. The Destroyer was supposed to get a rework in Korea in April and then appear with us right after. Maybe something has shifted there.”
Drennet sees it differently: “Most people haven’t even played through the content that is there; new T3 stuff would be pointless. Just give us more skins and more classes.”
What do you think of the whole situation? Were you satisfied with the roadmap or are you more on the side of those who want different content? When do you think we can expect the current roadmap and what would change? Feel free to write it to us in the comments here at MeinMMO.
In Pokémon GO today, on March 8, 2022, there is a spotlight hour featuring Owei. Additionally, you can expect a special XP bonus when evolving Pokémon. We at MeinMMO will show you when the event starts, whether there are Shiny-Owei and if the event is worth it.
What is a spotlight hour? Every Tuesday evening, Pokémon GO highlights a specific Pokémon for one hour. You can then find this Pokémon almost everywhere in the game. Furthermore, the short event is rounded off with a special bonus.
Today, on March 8, 2022, you will encounter the Grass and Psychic Pokémon Owei during the spotlight hour. In addition, you will receive an XP bonus during the event.
Spotlight Hour with Owei – Start, Bonuses & Shiny
When does the spotlight hour start? As every Tuesday, the spotlight hour will also take place today starting at 6:00 PM local time. You then have one hour to catch as many Owei as possible and make the most of the bonus until the event ends at 7:00 PM.
Additionally, you will receive double experience points (XP) when evolving your monsters throughout the entire event.
Is there a Shiny Owei? Yes, you can catch a Shiny Owei with a bit of luck. You can recognize it by its golden-yellow body.
Owei and Kokowei each normal (left) and as Shiny (right)
Is the spotlight hour with Owei worth it?
How strong is Owei? Owei belongs to the Grass and Psychic Pokémon of the 1st generation and can be evolved into Kokowei with the help of 50 candies. Owei is not particularly strong, and its evolution, which has a solid attack, plays rather a minor role in raids and PvP battles.
Is the spotlight hour worth it? The spotlight hour is particularly interesting today for Shiny hunters. If you are looking for a strong attacker for raids or the GO Battle League, you might not be happy with Owei.
For trainers who are still on the way to level 50, the XP bonus when evolving is worthwhile. If you were already planning to evolve some monsters, you should take the opportunity.
You receive double experience points for each monster. If you combine that with a lucky egg, you can double that again for 30 minutes.
Are you participating in the spotlight hour today? Or is that not really your thing and would you rather skip today? Feel free to share your opinion with us here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers about it.
It took a long time, but World of Warcraft finally has a dance studio. Not quite as it was announced back then – but still quite funny.
There are a number of running gags in World of Warcraft that have persisted for years and now even decades. One of them was the implementation of a dance studio, which was originally intended for “Wrath of the Lich King”.
It only took six additional expansions to finally make this dream a reality. Because World of Warcraft now has a dance studio that you can get at the Darkmoon Faire.
How does the game work? As you walk through the fair almost to the end, a new tent has opened on the left side. In front of it, you’ll find the NPC Simon Sagan (Simon Sezdans), who lets you participate in a new game for tokens.
Basically, the mini-game is based on the game “Simon Says”, where you have to replicate the order shown exactly to get full points.
At the Darkmoon Faire, there is a new game.
In World of Warcraft, this is represented by different runes. Depending on the difficulty level, you have to dance back a different number of “pre-danced runes” in quick succession. This game repeats multiple times, and the more precise you are, the more points you get.
Your dance partner might, for example, indicate this combo: Blue – Purple – Blue – Yellow – Purple. After that, you have a few seconds to dance back exactly these runes in the same order.
What kind of dance studio is this? The original idea of a dance studio was that players could create their own dances for their characters. It was supposed to function almost like an additional character customization option but was ultimately discarded with the release of Wrath of the Lich King – just like some other features. It simply did not work as the developers had hoped.
Now there is at least a – albeit somewhat different – dance event in World of Warcraft.
You can only complete the achievements with a perfect score.
What does it bring? The mini-game is, like most activities at the Darkmoon Faire, associated with numerous achievements. At three different difficulty levels, you can dance for quite a while before you’ve collected all the achievements. To achieve the achievements, you need to complete the dance game 10 times at each difficulty with a perfect score.
In the end, as a reward, there’s even a “Darkmoon Dance Party” toy (“Dance Dance Darkmoon”), with which you can dance anywhere in the world! This means you now always have your “dance studio” with you.
When can you play the dance game? You can only play it when the Darkmoon Faire is open. This is usually from the 1st Sunday of the month until the following Saturday. So you still have time until March 12 if you want to get the achievements.
From now on, you can at least regularly dance at the Darkmoon Faire and even earn a dance studio toy while doing so. Unfortunately, the item is not yet classified as a “toy”, so it must be carried in your inventory.
Blizzard will certainly change this with one of the upcoming patches – after all, most of the other Darkmoon items have been converted into toys.
How do you like the dance game at the Darkmoon Faire?

Former LoL pro Doublelift has become an 8-time champion in the US league of League of Legends, the LCS. He is known for his massive ego and the legendary phrase: ‘Everyone else is trash.’ After a disastrous career ending, he is now a full-time streamer on Twitch. At 28, he is now planning a comeback as a pro, but he is not as self-assured as he used to be.
This is Doublelift:
The American Yilang ‘Doublelift’ Ping was a powerhouse in American LoL from 2011 to 2020. He won a total of 8 championship titles and received individual awards as MVP and Finals MVP. Alongside midlaner Bjergsen, Doublelift was the big star in the USA.
This is what Doublelift says: In a podcast, he says he feels the urge to compete again and prove himself:
I feel the urge. All the time. It’s romanticized in our heads. But it’s so satisfying. And it’s something I truly love.
Legendary ADC known for huge confidence and harsh remarks
How does he envision his return? Previously, Doublelift carried a massive ego, seeing himself as the greatest. He would say things like ‘Everyone else is trash’ or ‘If the world champion can do it, so can I.’
But this confidence is currently absent. Today he says:
If I were to say right now that I’m coming back and going to crush all ADCs in the LCS easily, I would be totally out of my mind. Of course, you need a lot of time to come back and develop your skills. Can I compete again? Sure, but there’s a caveat to that statement.
According to Doublelift, his old friend Bjergsen did it just right. He told his teammates: Guys, I was out for a year, I’m not going to be that good right now, but I promise you that I can become really good again. I just need time.
According to Doublelift, that is the ideal mindset for a comeback.
Bjergsen plays again in 2022 – Doublelift wants to follow him.
On the other hand, Bjergsen returned at 26 after a year off and things are going quite well. Team Liquid is behind Cloud9 in 2nd place in the league.
In any case, acquiring Doublelift would be a huge PR coup for a team, but to play an international role, it probably wouldn’t be enough.
Ironically, it could be his old team, TSM, that would probably need Doublelift the most. They completely fell apart after the departure of Doublelift and Bjergsen and are currently in last place in the LCS with a 2-9 record.
In Diablo 3, the new Season 26 can be tested on the PTR server starting Wednesday. The season temporarily brings back the old feature, Rift Trials, in a new and better version, and makes changes to the Greater Rifts. We present the new features and the previous patch notes of update 2.7.3.
What does the new Season 26 bring? The theme of the season is “Echoing Nightmare.” This is a new endgame activity that you can only enter with seasonal characters. You will face waves of monsters that you must defeat.
To enter the activity, you must obtain the item “Petrified Scream” from guardians in the Greater Rifts. You can then transform this in Kanai’s Cube to open a portal to the activity. Only one player in the group needs to have such a cube.
The waves will become stronger from round to round. There is also a time limit, so you lose if you do not defeat a wave quickly enough.
Rewards include experience points, legendary items, Blood Shards, Gems, and a brand new Legendary Gem: Whisper of Atonement. This can be used to upgrade old legendaries.
Additionally, the Greater Rifts are being overhauled. Three new maps are being added, while two will be removed in exchange. Furthermore, the probabilities of certain monster groups have been adjusted.
When will the new season be released? Season 26 and patch 2.7.3 will be released on March 10 on the test server. There you can test the new features until March 24.
The release of Season 26 is expected to take place in April.
Echoing Nightmare is a new version of Rift Trials
Does Echoing Nightmare sound familiar to me? Yes, a similar activity was already present in Diablo 3. In 2015, the so-called Rift Trials were introduced. Back then, you were supposed to face waves of monsters and survive as long as possible. However, neither the players nor Blizzard themselves were satisfied with it.
“The Trials are not good. We don’t like them. I don’t like them,” said Wyatt Cheng, Senior Technical Game Designer at Blizzard at the time (via reddit). After that, they were removed. With Season 26, they are now returning as a seasonal event.
Changes to the Greater Rifts and Items – Patch Notes
What exactly is changing with the Greater Rifts?
3 new maps are being added: Fields of Misery, Desolate Sands, and Briarthorn Cemetery
2 old maps are being removed: Sewers of Caldeum and Hidden Aqueducts

The probabilities of monster groups have been adjusted
Various monsters have been adjusted to grant more progress and XP

For those currently playing in Season 25 of Diablo 3, here are the best classes and builds:
In Lost Ark, you not only receive your own fortress with a house where you can engage in housing activities throughout the story, but you also get an entire island. But how do you even get there? We at MeinMMO explain it to you.
What is your island? Once you have unlocked it, your island with your fortress on it is available as a retreat for all your characters. But you can do more there than just hang out with your friends.
You can also craft healing potions, explore, mine resources, and even go hunting. Additionally, it is possible to decorate your entire island and add more buildings and items. So you can really make it cozy and even get some benefits out of it.
Furthermore, there is the Dispatch Station on your island from which you send your crew on self-built ships to complete tasks for you. They give you loot and can even replace your dailies.
How do you get to your island? For the first time, you arrive at your island and thus in your fortress right after you have unlocked it. This happens as soon as you have freed Luterra and King Thirain gifts it to you. Afterwards, you receive a tutorial quest that will lead you to your island for the first time.
To do this, you use the Song of Hearth and Home, which teleports you directly to your fortress at any time, allowing you to manage your island. You unlock this song for all characters on your account after completing this quest.
This is also important because you will no longer receive this quest with a second character. So you will not be shown how to enter your island anymore.
This song always brings you back to your island
How do you get other characters onto your island? You only need to play the Song of Hearth and Home, which you have unlocked for the entire roster. Additionally, you do not need to reach level 27 or Luterra with a new character; you can use it directly at level 10.
Just press F2, select the song, and press play. Just a few seconds later, your character will be on your island and can benefit from all its advantages.
How do you get to your fortress? In Lost Ark, “island” and “fortress” are two German words for the same thing. When the game refers to your fortress, it means your island. Strictly speaking, you could also refer to your fortress as your main house, which is located centrally in the middle of your island.
Elden Ring is considered, just like its spiritual successors, a tough nut to crack. The bosses are absolutely deadly, even normal enemies can send you packing with just one mistake. That’s why many players are proud of what they can achieve. However, Steam now shows that not that many gamers are so tough.
However, the reality for most players looks quite different. Steam indirectly tracks progress through achievements. These are earned for all sorts of feats, including defeating bosses.
Looking at the list of Elden Ring achievements on Steam, it can be seen that only about 54% of players have even passed the first boss (as of March 7, 2022):
54.3% of players have the achievement for defeating the shard bearer Godrick
between 1 and 3% of people have unlocked one of the endings of Elden Ring
at least 66.3% have defeated Margit, the so-called “first” boss for many, although he does not carry a shard

What about the PlayStation? Since the Soulsborne series is traditionally a controller game and at home on the PlayStation, the numbers here are also interesting. However, the trophies of the PSN do not paint a better picture of the elite players:
48.3% of players have the Godrick trophy on the PS5 (via PSNProfiles.com)
Elden Ring and Soulsborne Games – A Status Symbol
Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Bloodborne are considered particularly difficult games. They fundamentally punish mistakes with death, and bosses often have a steep learning curve. Anyone playing them needs a high tolerance for frustration to avoid biting their controller.
Accordingly, those players who seem to find everything easy are celebrated. However, behind that often lies years of training, for which they are then celebrated. Or they provide laughter, when they flee from an insect in full concentration.
Whether one can really play Elden Ring wrong was also discussed by our experts in the MeinMMO Podcast:
However, as the numbers show, you shouldn’t be too proud to seek help. Besides the difficulty, Soulsborne games, especially Elden Ring, are famous for their story and worlds. There is much to discover, and it would be a shame to miss out on all of that just because you are too proud to use magic.
Especially as a “casual,” a little bit of help isn’t a bad idea. After all, even the absolute pros sometimes get stuck:
By completing special research and special tasks, you can battle Giovanni in Pokémon GO. But how do you defeat him and what are the best counters in 2022?
How to find Giovanni? The boss of Team GO Rocket appears through events in the game. To do this, you need to solve a special research or complete other quests to secure the Super Rocket Radar.
With this, you can then track down and challenge Giovanni. The battle will then proceed just like against the other Rocket bosses.
We updated this article on March 8, 2022, for you. We brought the guide up to date. His team has not changed since November.
How to defeat Giovanni in Pokémon GO in March 2022
What Pokémon does Giovanni have? Giovanni’s legendary Pokémon changes regularly. He battled with a Ho-Oh in June. However, he suddenly disappeared with the start of the new season.
After being switched out for a few weeks, he has now returned. Since November 9, 2021, his new team has been active. As a legendary Pokémon, there will be Crypto-Lugia.
His complete team looks as follows:
First Pokémon
Second Pokémon
Third Pokémon
Snorlax
Nidoking
Lugia
Kingler
Rhyhorn
These are important prerequisites: You should ideally align your team against Giovanni’s Pokémon. Snorlax and Lugia are always included by the boss. Therefore, you should always have suitable counters, which we have summarized for you using the overviews from Pokebattler (via pokebattler.com).
Moreover, Giovanni always uses his shields during your first two charged attacks. So initially, you should focus on fast charged attacks to lure out the shields.
How to counter Snorlax
Against Snorlax, one should use Lucario with Power-Up Punch. This attack can be executed very quickly, allowing you to take away both of Giovanni’s shields with his first Pokémon. Lucario is among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Alternatives to Lucario:
Tyranitar with Stone Edge and Crunch
Machamp with Counter and Cross Chop
Terrakion with Stone Edge and Rock Slide
If you want to use a Mega Evolution, then Mega-Gyarados with Bite and Aqua Tail would be a good choice.
How to counter Nidoking
The Poison and Ground type Pokémon is particularly weak against Psychic, Water, Ice, and Ground types. The best Pokémon here are:
Excadrill with Mud Shot and Drill Run
Empoleon with Waterfall and Hydro Pump
Jirachi with Confusion and Wish
Kyogre with Waterfall and Surf
For Mega Evolutions, you can use the following counters:
Mega-Gyarados with Waterfall and Aqua Tail
Mega-Latios with Confusion and Psychic
Mega-Blastoise with Water Gun and Hydro Pump
Mega-Gengar with Dark Pulse and Shadow Punch.
How to counter Kingler
The Water type Pokémon is weak against Grass and Electric types. So rely on such Pokémon. A good choice would be:
Grotle with Leaf Blade and Leaf Storm
Leafeon with Bullet Seed and Leaf Blade
Zarude with Vine Whip and Leaf Tornado
Palkia with Dragon Tail and Aqua Tail
Otherwise, you can also use the following Mega Evolutions:
Mega-Venusaur with Leaf Blade and Floral Healing
Mega-Ampharos with Volt Switch and Thunderbolt
Mega-Gyarados with Dragon Tail and Aqua Tail
Use Mega Evolutions to defeat Giovanni
How to counter Rhyhorn
Rhyhorn is a Ground and Rock type Pokémon. Therefore, you should use counters of Grass and Water types. It is also sensitive to Fighting, Steel, Ice, and Ground types. It is best to use the following counters:
(Crypto-) Torterra with Leaf Blade and Sandstorm
(Crypto-) Gyarados with Waterfall and Aqua Tail
Swampert with Mud Shot and Hydro Pump
Kyogre with Waterfall and Surf
For Mega Evolutions, the following counters are suitable:
Mega-Gyarados with Waterfall and Aqua Tail
Mega-Venusaur with Leaf Blade and Floral Healing
Mega-Latios with Leaf Blade and Meteorology
How to counter Lugia
Lugia is a legendary Psychic and Flying type Pokémon. Here, you should use Pokémon of the Rock, Dark, Electric, Ghost, and Ice types. A good choice would be the following Pokémon:
Pokémon
Moveset
Melmetal
Thunder Shock and Rock Slide
Zacian
Play Rough and Thunder Fang
Yveltal
Play Rough and Dark Pulse
Caesurio
Play Rough and Dark Pulse
(Crypto-) Magnezone
Spark and Thunder Fang

(Crypto-) Raikou
Thunder Shock and Thunder Fang
(Crypto-) Tyranitar
Stone Edge and Crunch

More good counters against Lugia can be found in our counter guide:
The battle against the Rocket bosses and the mechanics in the PvP mode are somewhat more complicated. Therefore, we provide you with some tips that will help you in battle and in the PvP League. This way, you can catch many special Crypto Pokémon in the future and expand your collection with more strong fighters.

The next expansion of World of Warcraft will be revealed soon. The developers have announced a fixed date for it.
In World of Warcraft, most players are currently experiencing Patch 9.2, the End of Eternity. But fans have long been craving the next expansion, which hopefully brings the heroes of Azeroth back home. Now Blizzard has released a roadmap for the coming weeks – and we also have the announcement of the next WoW expansion there!

What has happened? The official Warcraft channel on Twitter has reignited the hype among Warcraft fans with the words, “The next expansion is on the horizon. Stay tuned.” The date for the reveal of the next addon has been announced.

When will the WoW addon be announced? That will happen on April 19, 2022 – so in about 6 weeks. Until then, a lot will happen in World of Warcraft, as there are still 1-2 cinematics awaiting players, the World-First race against the Jailer is coming up, and several chapters of the story campaign are still outstanding. There’s plenty of content to ease the wait until the announcement.
What kind of expansion will it be? So far, there are only speculations. Many supposed leaks and initial datamining suggest an addon focused on dragons. We have extensively presented a possible scenario for “The Dragon Isles”.
The coming weeks and months are likely to be a feast for Blizzard fans and will further fuel the anticipation for future content – if the developers manage to hit the nerve of the community.
Are you also looking forward to the announcements? What expansion would you like to see?

A 19-year-old woman reached out to the public on the internet for help: Her boyfriend would rather play Elden Ring than share affection with her. Many online can relate, saying they have also been neglected for Elden Ring. Men, however, seem to admire the young man’s steadfastness, as he is apparently “maidenless.”
What kind of post was that? Last week, a woman addressed the audience of a subreddit for “relationship advice.” She said she was 19, her boyfriend 22, they rarely find time to spend together and hadn’t exchanged affection in a month and a half.
But then there was an opportunity for a date, which was very nice, but when they went to his house, he only had eyes for a “new computer game” – she let him play for two hours, but then sought his company, yet he was completely engrossed in the game. When she offered him affection, he only said “Oh” and kept playing.
Ultimately, she wanted to give him a little more time, but then fell asleep at 2 AM without having cuddled at least once.
When she sought a conversation the next morning, he simply said it was “a new game.” She is now asking on Reddit if this behavior is normal. He is her first boyfriend, and she wonders if her expectations for a relationship are too high.

“I too have been neglected for Elden Ring recently”
These are the reactions: In the relationship subreddit, people immediately guess that the game must be Elden Ring. The 19-year-old confirms that. It is Elden Ring.
It is then said that the young woman’s situation is apparently widespread. Elden Ring is reportedly testing relationships worldwide:
A fellow sufferer says: “I too have been neglected for Elden Ring recently.”
Another regrets giving her husband Elden Ring.
A third says her husband is a gamer, but not someone who ignores the family. At least that was the case until he discovered the damn Elden Ring.
In the game, you are repeatedly referred to as “maidenless.”
In the relationship subreddit, some older people also chime in, who have been in a relationship for a while, where one partner likes to play. It’s noticeable that mutual understanding and consideration are crucial for a relationship to work.
A user says:
“These days, I don’t let the game dictate my whole life anymore. I play when it doesn’t bother my wife too much. Still, I now have 35 hours in Elden Ring and my sleep schedule is totally out of whack, but my wife doesn’t mind because I help her around the house.
How do gamers react? The story also spread to the subreddit for the game, Elden Ring. Here, people say that the 22-year-old behaves “absolutely maidenless.” The term “maidenless” keeps appearing as an insult in Elden Ring. The oddly archaic insult has developed into a meme in the community.
Overall, there is much understanding for the 22-year-old. Elden Ring is apparently so good and so all-consuming that one gives up quite a bit for it.
Our chief editor Leya also has a lot of love for Elden Ring:
A large hacking attack on Nvidia has resulted in many data being seized by hackers. Among them are certain certificates that could also pose a problem for many users. MeinMMO explains what this is all about and where you need to be careful.
What kind of hack is this? Nvidia became the victim of a ransomware attack a few days ago. According to reports from the group, data amounting to more than 1 TB were stolen from Nvidia’s servers. This includes information about the new graphics cards and other trade secrets.
The hack also resulted in code signatures falling into the hands of hackers. With this, these individuals could deploy malicious software and push this software onto unsuspecting users.
Malicious software could soon come with Nvidia signatures
What are these signatures? Developers give their software a certificate to make it fundamentally more secure. If you want to install a driver or other important software, Windows requires a certificate. If the certificate is not present, Windows refuses the installation or doesn’t even open the file at all.
Now here’s the problem: The hackers now have the ability, thanks to the hack, to supply software with an Nvidia certificate. Windows accepts the certificate and does not question where the software might originate. According to Techpowerup, there is already software in circulation with the forged certificate (via techpowerup.com).
This way, hackers can gain access to computers without users even noticing. These trojans, which can annoy you remotely, are also called Remote Access Trojans (RATs).
That’s why you should be careful: You could find fake Nvidia software on the internet in the future. If you are quickly looking for the right software or a user supposedly offers you the right download link, you should be cautious and always question such things, unless you already did so. Because the best protection on the internet is common sense.
Use the automatic update of GeForce Experience
This is how you can best protect yourself: The best way to protect yourself is to download the updates for your Nvidia software directly through the in-house tool “GeForce Experience”.
“GeForce Experience” is installed alongside the graphics driver unless you manually uninstalled the tool. You can use the tool to adjust your system’s performance for your games.
In addition, “GeForce Experience” offers you the option to automatically update your driver software. To do this, switch to the “Drivers” tab and then click the “Check for Updates” button. If there is new software for your graphics card, it will be automatically downloaded.
This is what happens if you’re not careful: You can also read on MeinMMO about what can happen if you use supposed software from the internet: Here, miners tried to circumvent the mining lock of the Nvidia graphics cards. But instead, the miners installed malicious software on their systems:
