All Patch Notes for the Fixes
After some server issues occurred in New World: Aeternum last night (see x.com), a server maintenance was announced to address this and several other known issues.
Accordingly, the following issues will be addressed and fixes implemented during the server down today:
Fixed an issue with some players unable to access the Seraphim Soul Trial at Monastery Isle.
Fixed an issue where some quests did not progress after speaking to the NPC.
Fixed an issue where the gates in Catacombs would sometimes not open after killing Rafflebones.
Fixed an issue where the extraction portal would fail to spawn causing players to fail to extract in Catacombs.
Fixed an issue where Catacomb levers are not interactable.
Fixed an issue where the secret door in Castle Dracula was occasionally not opening as expected.
Fixed an issue where artifacts would sometimes revert to a previous gear score level after being upgraded at the Gypsum Kiln.
Fixed an issue that allowed old perks to be placed onto new crafting items via perk crafting items. This was not intended so we have removed the ability to use perk items on these recipes. For already crafted items that mix the new and old perks, we’ve swapped out all the old perks with an empty charm slot. Mastery Perks became Skill slots, Offensive themed perks became Offensive Slots, and Defensive themed perks became Defensive Slots.
Fixed an issue where applying the last perk charm of any type in your inventory to an item causes that charm type to be broken if applying another perk charm of that type.
Fixed an issue where territory standing boosters did not apply to territory standing earned in Nighthaven. Reduced distance players can hear doors opening throughout Nighthaven.
Fixed an issue which prevented the Focused set, the Tenacity set, and several infix items from appearing on the PvP Reward Track.
Fixed an issue where some mobs required for MSQ quests would fail to spawn.
Fixed an issue where the elementally charged set bonus wouldn’t trigger if the chest piece for the bonus was not equipped.
Superman and Homelander will not meet so quickly in any movie or series. However, the situation is different in the world of comics. Soon, there will be a crossover that could clarify an important question.
Comic fans love to speculate whether their favorite character would prevail against another superhero or villain. In the case of Superman and Homelander from The Boys, this question is all the more relevant because Homelander is something like the evil counterpart to Superman.
Superman, on the other hand, is mainly known for his idealistic character. He saves the day and is a shining hero, mostly at least. What happens when he meets Homelander has so far been the basis for wild speculation. However, DC itself would like to put an end to that soon, as a confrontation between the two is imminent.

The Shining Hero vs. The Arrogant Villain
What has been announced? DC has revealed new information at the New York Comic Con 2025 about an already launched comic series. The first issue of “DC: K.O.” was released on October 7, 2025, with part 2 following in November. In it, the Justice League must battle Darkseid in a kind of Battle Royale.
In addition to the regular issues, there will be a bonus issue in February 2026 featuring various characters from other universes, including Homelander from The Boys.
Jim Lee, the creative head of DC, announced at the Comic Con that there will be a meeting of giants: “Who wouldn’t want to watch Homelander fight Superman?”
How exactly the duel will look is something Lee has, of course, not revealed. However, one can assume that the two superheroes will give each other a good beating – which leads back to the question of who will ultimately emerge as the victor.
Who has better chances? Of course, it’s pure speculation, but Superman would probably have the better chances. His powers exceed those of Homelander, and he also has more experience in combat – especially against enemies with superpowers.
As for his character, Superman is stronger: he is emotionally much more stable and is not easily rattled by minor setbacks in battle. Homelander, on the other hand, is arrogant and lacks discipline – which is a disadvantage in the duel against the morally upright and well-considered Superman.
Who else appears in the crossover? The biggest attention is probably on the meeting between Superman and Homelander, but there are also other characters who are interesting. Among them is Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat, with the exciting question of whether the extreme violence from the video game will also find its place in the comic. Coincidentally: Homelander has already made an appearance in Mortal Kombat.
And with the doll Annabelle from the Conjuring film series, an unusual foe makes an appearance. What a fight against the demonic icon from the horror flick would look like is probably a question that only a few comic fans have asked. They will find out the answer in February next year.
Are you looking forward to the crossover? And who do you think has the better chances in the mentioned duel of Superman vs. Homelander? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments.

Crafting in World of Warcraft has become too complex. With Midnight, the developers are tweaking the system slightly.
With the expansion Dragonflight, World of Warcraft extensively overhauled the crafting systems. There are multiple quality levels for almost all reagents, and the same applies to the crafted equipment. The antiquated Classic crafting system has been discarded.
Although Blizzard has achieved many goals with this, there were still a few issues. Some found the new system too complex, while others felt overwhelmed by the numerous quality levels of the items. With Midnight, the developers are rowing back a bit and trying to find a middle ground.
Start video
WoW Midnight shows gameplay – All new features
More space in inventory, easier handling
What is changing exactly? Basically, there are some major changes that especially affect the quality levels:
Crafting materials from gathering and crafting professions will now have only two quality levels.
Consumables will now have only two quality levels.
End-game equipment from crafting will now have only three quality levels.
This way, you can more easily decide which materials to use for which result. If the quality level of the end product doesn’t matter, you can simply use the “bad” materials. If the result is important, like with equipment, you will opt for the better materials.
Note that the information here still comes from the Alpha of Midnight and that everything is currently still a “Work in Progress.” Some details may change until the release of the expansion in 2026.
What does this mean for crafters? In summary, the changes primarily mean simplifications in handling. You will now need less space in the bank for the reagents, as one quality level has been completely removed.
This alone already provides significantly more clarity, whether when crafting equipment or consumables. You will now only have to choose between “cheap and somewhat weaker” or “more expensive but high quality” – the middle tier, which hardly anyone used anyway, is completely eliminated.
What do you think of the changes to crafting? Is Blizzard on the right track and finding a reasonable compromise? Or are you still not warming up to the “new” crafting system and wishing for a return to the times before Dragonflight? Even if Blizzard has achieved the goal with crafting – some do not achieve their goal, like this one blood elf who has been failing for 20 years.

The customer service of Steam enjoys a particularly good reputation among its community, and the story of a Reddit user shows once again why. He got his money back, even though his request did not comply with the official rules.
What story is it about? In a Reddit thread, the user BabaYodaTheFirst explained that he had bought a game from the “Like a Dragon” series about two weeks ago. However, after about six hours of gameplay, he noticed that SEGA had shortly thereafter launched a discount promotion.
He wanted to return his game to buy it again on sale, along with another title from the series. The problem: According to Steam’s return policy, refunds are only possible within two weeks and with less than two hours of playtime – his request was initially denied.
However, instead of accepting this, the player sent a second message to Steam support, this time with a simple “pretty please,” and lo and behold: a customer service representative from Valve responded with understanding and approved the refund as a “kind gesture.”
When I woke up this morning, I could hardly believe it. My parents were surprised when I, who am usually so calm, was bouncing around like a gremlin.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion sends the superheroes to battle against Annihilus on Steam in pixel combat
Not the only good story
Why does this work on Steam? Another user on Reddit sums up the situation fairly concretely: “The 14-day/2-hour rule is the criterion for automatic refunds – it is not an absolute limit for obtaining refunds,” states ialsoagree in the thread. Therefore, it is worth contacting support directly in such cases.
Other players also subsequently shared their positive experiences on the platform and referred to the human approach of customer service:
I told them: “I know I exceeded the 2 hours, but I swear I spent most of my time fighting with the game itself.” The guy wrote back to me about 5 minutes later: “You too, huh? Yeah, I tried it myself last night. What a disaster, lol. You are about the 50th person I had to personally give a refund to this morning, myself included.
For the gamer not-cool-br0, the support was even the reason to turn his back on PlayStation and only buy games on Steam. While Steam easily refunded him after 4 hours of playtime, the PSN store didn’t give him a single cent back 10 minutes after purchase and without playtime.
Season 11 starts in December in Diablo 4 and brings fresh content, new mechanics, and some fundamental changes. What features to expect, what’s changing with crafting, and when you can check out the PTR, you can find out here on MeinMMO.
In a “Sanctuary Sitdown,” the developers of Diablo 4 revealed the first details about the contents of Season 11 on the official Discord. We summarize all the important information here and keep the article regularly updated as new updates emerge.
Season 11: Start, PTR, and Patch Notes
When does Season 11 start? In the Battle Pass of Diablo 4, you can see the remaining days of the current season. If everything goes according to plan, Season 11 is expected to start on Tuesday, December 9, 2025. As with the last season, the update is likely to be released around 6 PM (CEST). However, due to changes to the main game, this update may be larger than 5 GB.
When does Season 11 end? The roadmap for Diablo 4 currently only mentions the start in December. For 2026, a new expansion, a rank system, and leaderboards have already been announced. As is customary, Season 11 will likely last about three months, so presumably until early March 2026.
Is there a PTR for Season 11? The PTR (Public Test Realm) for Season 11 runs from October 21, 7:30 PM, until October 28, 8:00 PM (German time). There, you can try out the new features and changes to the base game on PC via Battle.net. This includes seasonal “gifts” that you can use for bonuses, new uniques, as well as updates to the crafting system and regional progress.
Season 10 has already brought some changes to Diablo 4 – and the community received them well. It remains to be seen how Season 11 will be.

Season 11: New Features and Changes to the Base Game
What is the theme of Season 11? There is currently no official theme. However, it is certain that Blizzard will once again shake up some core systems with Season 11. This includes regional progress, defensive values, and monster AI. Overall, the ARPG is set to become more challenging and tactical.
This is what Season 11 includes:
Season Mechanics: The new mechanic in Season 11 is the seasonal “gifts” that you can use to:
receive a reward,
remove negative effects and gain positive ones
or increase the difficulty of activities.
Seasonal gifts influence your gameplay in Season 11 of Diablo 4.
Crafting Systems: The existing crafting systems will be revised following community feedback. With hardening, you can now specifically choose an affix you want to imprint on your item via a recipe (previously, two were possible). For that, hardening charges can be reset indefinitely. Completion no longer increases an item’s affix values but improves quality in terms of base damage, armor, or resistance.
Monsters: Monsters react more intelligently and dynamically in combat. Monster affixes are stronger and require tactical approaches. There are 20 new affixes, and existing affixes are being revised. “Minor evils,” such as Duriel or Andariel, can surprise you in activities.
Defense & Healing: The base potion capacity will be reduced to 4 potions; they heal instantly for 35% of your maximum health. Potion upgrades will be removed as they heal a fixed amount. Armor will reduce all damage, both physical and non-physical. The penalties per torment level will be eliminated. Also, Paragon points will now provide multiplicative bonuses to defensive values.
Regional Progress becomes Season Rank: The previous regional progress will then only remain in the Eternal Realm. In seasonal realms, it will be replaced by the season rank, which is closely linked to the season journey. You rank up by completing capstone dungeons. Seasonal ranks grant additional skill and Paragon points. If you complete optional quests in the season journey, you will receive bonuses such as skill points, ash, and cosmetics. The altars of Lilith and Akarat will now only grant experience and small rewards but no longer permanent power bonuses. In short: You will have to earn your bonuses anew each season.
To level up in the season rank, you finish capstone dungeons.
Capstone Dungeons: With Season 11, the capstone dungeons return, but with a different function. Before Blizzard introduced torment levels, you unlocked the world levels there. In the future, you will unlock further seasonal ranks in the capstone dungeons and receive certain bonuses, such as additional Paragon points.
Leaderboards return: From Season 11, there will again be leaderboards in Diablo 4, where you can compare yourself with other players. They are tied to the activity “The Tower,” a multi-level, time-controlled dungeon. You will unlock the tower through the obelisk in Cerrigar and can then choose any difficulty you have already unlocked in the pit.
Which class is the best class in Season 11? It is still unclear which classes and builds will dominate the tier lists in Season 11. After the PTR and extensive theorycrafting, experts will share their assessments with the players. And here you will find a fresh tier list for the new season. The strongest builds in the current season can be found here: Diablo 4 Season 10: Tier List with the Best Builds

The next Spotlight Hour awaits you in Pokémon GO. MeinMMO shows you what to expect and whether it’s worth it.
What kind of event is this? A Spotlight Hour is a short event that takes place every Tuesday. It lasts for 60 minutes, features at least one Pokémon, and has a bonus as well.
The Spotlight Hour on October 21, 2025, brings you, in keeping with the Halloween event, Gastly. The Ghost-Poison Pokémon is from the 1st generation and can evolve into Haunter and then into Gengar.

Spotlight Hour on October 21, 2025 – Start and Bonuses
When does the Spotlight Hour start? As always, the event starts at 6:00 PM and ends an hour later at 7:00 PM.
What bonus is active? If you catch Pokémon during this Spotlight Hour, you will receive double experience points for it. The bonus applies to all Pokémon, not just Gastly.
Additionally, there is a special bonus during this Spotlight Hour. If you catch Gastly, you can earn Mega Energy for Gengar. If you haven’t triggered this Mega Evolution yet, you should take the opportunity.
Can you catch Shiny Gastly? Yes. If you’re lucky, you might also stumble upon the Shiny variant of Gastly. However, the chance is not increased during the event.
Is the Spotlight Hour worth it? Gengar is still one of the best attackers in Pokémon GO. As both a Ghost and Poison attacker, it is a solid choice. Mega Gengar is even stronger. If you don’t have this evolution yet, you should take advantage of the Spotlight Hour and try to earn enough Mega Energy for the evolution.
In the Battle League, however, you should avoid Gastly and its evolutions. None of the three Pokémon are recommended here.
The bonus from the event can also be used to snag some extra experience points. This can be especially useful when you are looking to reach new levels after the big level 80 update.
In addition to the Spotlight Hours, there are many more events, raids, and content waiting for you in October. If you want to get an overview of when these are active in the game, feel free to take a look at our overview with all events in October 2025 in Pokémon GO.

While New World is currently experiencing a sort of third spring, Pax Dei is celebrating its final launch on Steam. Of course, our MMORPG enthusiast Karsten is on it. However, he had the most fun with another game that was released recently.
Since my kids were busy elsewhere last weekend, I fortunately had unusually much time to dive into both MMORPGs. However, they did not get my full attention. Because there was also a third, still quite fresh blockbuster release that kept luring me back to its servers.
In the following, I will not only share my insights from Pax Dei and New World, but also reveal which game I had the most fun with.
Who is writing here? Karsten Scholz is the MMORPG expert at MeinMMO. He has been dealing with the best genre in the world daily for 16 years. His private first contact was in 2005. Since then, he has accumulated several years of playtime in various online role-playing games and has played almost every relevant genre representative of the past 20 years at least for a while.
Karsten also feels comfortable in almost every other genre. No wonder, after all, he discovered and developed his love for video games on the NES and C64.

Pax Dei – Time-consuming grind to switch off
I had not played the sandbox MMORPG from Mainframe Industries since July 2024, so I was quite curious about how much better Pax Dei has become over the past year. And thanks to the progress wipe, I was able to find out with a newly created character.
First insight: A lot has changed since the beginning, the game now explains much more. Since I passed the free access, which comes with every founder’s version, directly to my better half, I could closely observe that the text prompts are still not enough to clarify all important questions. One still has to work through the entry into Pax Dei.
Over the weekend, Karsten built a small home in Pax Dei.
Second insight: The progression curve in crafting is more pleasant, important raw materials are better distributed, and combat has also received noticeable improvements. However, there are still one or two hurdles that require a lot of farming, and you should not expect a refined combat system, like in many other MMORPGs.
At least the somewhat lengthy grind for farming resources serves even now, as it did before, to simply switch off for a while and recharge. This is supported by another strength of the MMORPG: the beautiful medieval game world, with its impressive vistas.
What I liked the most during my replay was how lively this world is currently again. Pax Dei desperately needs its active community to exploit its potential. Therefore, I doubt whether one has done oneself a favor with the paid properties.
The expansion of the home is still one of the biggest motivators for Pax Dei, in my opinion. After all, the developers have listened to something I’ve been wishing for many years: a subscription model that does not rely on the standard 13 euros per month that WoW introduced to the mainstream 20 years ago. Premium costs only 4 euros in Pax Dei, Premium + 1 property is okay at 7 euros.

The production of 7 vs. Wild has secretly launched a new series and most people will have missed it. The first episode already shows how harmoniously the filming takes place.
What kind of series is this? 7 vs. Wild has long consisted of the main series and the “Behind the Scenes” format “Behind The Scences”, where viewers are taken to the extraordinary filming of the series and given insights into the preparations.
However, the production has now created another series. It currently doesn’t have a proper title but shows further unreleased scenes from 7 vs. Wild Amazonas. However, these are not recordings of the participants, but footage that was originally shot for the “Behind The Scences” format but didn’t make it into the series.
Even Jens “Knossi” Knossalla was once a participant of 7 vs. Wild:

Where can you watch the series? The series is a Reddit exclusive. This year, 7 vs. Wild has teamed up with Reddit to show some episodes of the exclusive show there. They are published as posts on the official 7 vs. Wild Reddit and can only be viewed there.
When and how many episodes there will be is currently unknown. Only one episode has gone live so far, giving viewers an impression of the series, and fans like it.
What is the first episode about? In the first episode of the Reddit exclusive series, viewers meet a man named “Beleño”. He rents his boat to the production for the filming and is a good acquaintance of host Hervé Neukomm.
If you think this is a quick procedure like car rental, you are mistaken. Before the boat is rented, they first talk, show all the features of the boat, and of course, grill and drink beer. Making deals in Leticia is still not done through automated processes.

How is the new series being received? The episode is well received by users on Reddit. It is well known that “hardcore fans” are very active there, who know everything about 7 vs. Wild and even find out the location months before the announcement.
The expanded insight behind the scenes fits well with the users of the internet forum, and they praise the insights and are happy that the excerpts have been shown. The first episode of the mini-series primarily makes a friendly impression and conveys to the viewer that both sides are happy to collaborate.
7 vs. Wild is not only an adventure for the participants but also for the production team, which is involved in the preparation and planning for months.
The first part of the Halloween event starts in Pokémon GO. Included are new monsters, new cryptos, and a special GO Pass.
What kind of event is this? This year, there is once again a Halloween event that consists of 2 parts. The first part starts on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 at 10:00 AM and ends on Monday, October 27, 2025 at 10:00 AM.
How do I obtain Poltchageistand Sinistcha? Poltchageist, the grass-ghost monster from the 9th generation, and its evolution Sinistcha can be obtained for the first time during the event. To get Poltchageist, you need to challenge it in 1-star raids, defeat it, and catch it.
If you have a Poltchageist and 50 candies for the monster, you can evolve it into Sinistcha.

There is an NPC in World of Warcraft who has had a single goal for over 18 years. In Midnight, we learn how that turned out.
With over 20 years of content, there are thousands of NPCs in World of Warcraft with their own stories. Some are great heroes, like Jaina Proudmoore, Anduin Wrynn, or Thrall, whose stories all fans can nearly recite by heart. Yet smaller side characters are often overlooked – although Blizzard occasionally provides updates. A detail from the alpha of the upcoming expansion “Midnight” shows: Blizzard has not forgotten these NPCs. However, they will not be freed from their suffering.

WoW Midnight shows gameplay – All new features
What kind of NPC is this? Trayanise is an NPC known especially to Blood Elves or any role-players who have spent a lot of time in Silvermoon. Since Patch 2.2 – almost 18 years ago – this elf has been running around in front of the Sunspire tower trying to catch a small arcane golem that is constantly fleeing from her.
Trayanise is just a small, insignificant NPC who brings a bit of life to the city of Silvermoon and simultaneously shows the problems the elves face – fear of the mages, a bit of power misuse, and of course misprogrammed arcane constructs.
What happens to the NPC in Midnight? Clever players from the alpha have also spotted Trayanise in the new version of Silvermoon. There, she sits on one of the many balconies of the city on a blanket, with a wine glass in her hand. When you talk to her, she says:
<Trayanise sips her drink while observing something moving in the sky.> It’s only a matter of time … I will catch you.
If you then turn the camera around, you can see the little golem – which apparently has learned a few tricks over the past 18 years, as it is now flying around in the sky.

Thus, it becomes clear: Trayanise still hasn’t been able to catch the construct of the mages even after 18 years.
Community celebrates the attention to detail of Midnight
Although Trayanise is just a small detail of an essentially unimportant NPC, it is extremely well-received by players. Many point out that they still love World of Warcraft after a long time precisely because of such details and the developments in the game world. Some of the comments from the WoW subreddit:
„I mean, elves live a very long time. It’s just a very long side quest.” – haragos
„God, these kinds of details make me love this damn game so much.” – BathtubSkeleton
„For me, that’s the best part of revamps of old areas: we see how these little stories develop.” – orangesheepdog
„Next time, in the ‘Tomorrow’ expansion, she’ll become a demon hunter to capture the flying golem, only for it to leave the atmosphere.” – Key_Arrival2927
The new Silvermoon is filled with such details. If you want to take a stroll through the old Silvermoon in the current version of WoW, you will discover many NPCs that have evolved – not just graphically. Blizzard seems to be putting a lot of work into small details here, so Blood Elf fans can experience a lot of pleasant surprises. However, the question arises whether Blood Elves will still matter in Midnight – as a player shows why we will all soon only play Haranir.

The new update in Pokémon GO brought a few other elements along with the level adjustment. However, some trainers are not exactly fans of it.
Which feature is it about? On October 15, Pokémon GO released the major update with the new level system. Along with these contents, the update also included a few visual changes.
One of these changes includes graphics that show your XP progress, which appear when you have hatched an egg, completed a raid, or finished a dynamax battle. So at points where you receive a decent amount of XP.
However, this change is not well received by all trainers. The new XP screen bothers some players.

Smiling and Lucky Egg button are not for some trainers
According to a post on the Pokémon GO subreddit, a few points play a role in why some trainers do not like the screen. Trainers criticize:
The number of screens one has to dismiss.
The positioning of the “Do you want to use a Lucky Egg?” button, which some users say could tempt them to accidentally use such an egg.
And also the smile of their own trainer seems to upset some players. In this context, criticism of the avatar models arises again, which was already a topic upon their introduction in 2024. You can see how the smile looks here in the title image.
A few examples of voices from the thread:
“Lmao, I have 159 million of 8 million, I never need to get experience points again, but I still have to see this animation every time,” criticizes user lujoter4 (on Reddit).
“My character wears a mask, so I don’t see the smile. But this screen stresses me out because I constantly think that I might accidentally use a Lucky Egg if I click through this screen too quickly,” says user holonboy (on Reddit).
Similar voices are being raised in the comments. As of now, players do not seem very enthusiastic about the new screens.
What do you think about the topic? Do you find the new screens nice, or do you consider them unnecessary? And what do you think of the big level update overall? Let us know in the comments!

MeinMMO editor Nikolas Hernes didn’t actually want to buy Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Still, he spent 30 hours on the game over the weekend because the gameplay loop is so good.
When Pokemon Legends: Z-A was announced, I was skeptical. I, too, had been disappointed by many recent games and actually didn’t want to get the game at release. Then the game was available at a lower price right away, and I grabbed it. As a longtime fan, one inevitably gives in.
After surviving the annoying tutorial, I was caught in the gameplay loop. This is meant positively, as I spent almost an entire weekend with a game for the first time in a long while.

A grindfest, but a good one
What makes Pokemon Legends: Z-A so good? First off: I generally don’t care much about graphics while playing. Many textures and representations can be annoying, but on the Switch 2, I could live with the graphics, even though the criticism is entirely justified. What mattered more to me was that the frame rate is mostly stable and loading times are short.
This is particularly important to me, as the grind is the big highlight in the game. In Legends: Z-A, the game structure is based on completing tasks and collecting. For the story, you collect points in battle zones, for Mega Evolutions, shards, and for the Pokédex Pokémon. Apart from new creatures and trainers, there’s not much variety. Even the city is quite compact.
However, the Pokemon Company has created a rather satisfying gameplay loop this time. Everything goes quickly and thanks to the active battle system, capturing Pokemon feels less tedious. Previous installment innovations also help. Since you can use the box everywhere, I can quickly swap Pokemon, and especially the boss Pokemon are always useful in the story.
While the main quest drags on for a long time, you can ignore it due to the grind structure anyway. Everything you do feels rewarding.
Side quests usually have strong rewards, completing the tasks of the Pokemon Lab is worthwhile thanks to powerful attacks, and filling the Pokédex has been the credo of the series since 1996. But it was the game world that made the grind even more enjoyable for me.
What makes the game world so good? On paper, the game world looks boring. There is little variety, you only move around in a single city, and most Pokemon are found in fixed zones. But it is this combination that creates a cozy feeling.
You walk through the city to the next wild zone, meet a lot of NPCs, and the good music underscores it all. It’s like walking through a city where you were born. The residents slowly become familiar constants that create a safe space.
I never got bored because everything goes so quickly. You can fast travel or destroy a few crystals on the way. There’s always something to do, even after the story.
I was initially skeptical about the wild zones as well, but this concentrated gathering of Pokemon has the advantage that I am also learning where each creature spawns slowly. I’m excited about the boss Pokemon, and completing the Pokédex becomes less frustrating.
Overall, I feel very comfortable in Illumina City. Like in a café that you visit every week.
The probably most important point: I’ve always loved Pokemon and I still can’t resist it years later. Especially when the grind is so incredibly fun. But even if I’ll play for hours in the post-game: Pokemon has so much more potential and should finally utilize it. If you’re looking for an alternative, you’ll find it here: The new game on Digimon does one thing really well that has always annoyed me in Pokemon

ARC Raiders has conducted its final test before release, and the shooter has a lot of strengths, says our MeinMMO author Christos Tsogos. Unfortunately, some fans do not share the same opinion and they want to enforce changes that he believes are unnecessary.
ARC Raiders recently completed its final test, where anyone interested could participate for free. As a long-time shooter fan, I couldn’t miss the opportunity and thus checked out the world of ARC and visited Speranza.
For many, this might sound like a joke, but ARC Raiders could finally become the Fortnite of the extraction genre that the gaming industry has been aiming for years. The developers at Embark seem to be getting a lot right – whether it’s the game world, the story, or the difficulty. Everything seems to harmonize so far, but I see a major problem before the release.
A specific group of players is criticizing exactly what makes the shooter so exciting, which is the difficulty. Therefore, I say: For ARC Raiders to remain successful, Embark should not listen to these fans this time.

Survival is extremely difficult and it should stay that way
No matter which extraction shooter I play, they all have one thing in common – they are incredibly difficult to master, and that should and must stay that way. ARC Raiders is also so good precisely because it can realistically capture the atmosphere of a dystopian future world full of rampaging robots. You can only rely on your instincts, your skill, and your abilities. Everyone is against you, including strange ARC Raiders in the form of players.
It’s particularly frustrating when you get ambushed and your entire team is wiped out. That has happened to me as well, and not just once. But that is a good thing because without such experiences, you can’t improve – learning to foresee and navigate the terrain and outsmart traps. It hurts and costs a lot of resources, but that’s what makes an extraction shooter.
Unfortunately, there is a faction in the community who finds the game too difficult.They are calling for nerfs or even want a dedicated PvE mode where things are not as intense. Theoretically, that would be possible, but it would go against the core idea of ARC Raiders.
An apocalyptic scenario like this is not relaxing and must correspondingly create strenuous moments. Therefore, it’s all the more satisfying when you emerge victorious. Some clips on Reddit show the dopamine rush of many players as they just barely managed to reach the rescue lift while being hunted by other players or robots.
That’s what makes the thrill. Such moments only exist when the game remains challenging and offers challenges. Without them, the shooter would be boring and there are already enough titles like that.
However, I do not oppose general feedback as long as it is justified and helps the game. Without the help of the community, Embark would not have postponed the release of its shooter to improve it. The version you recently played would not have been possible. One just has to evaluate where and which criticism is meaningful.
Many large studios like to take the path of developing their games for the mass market. There should be something for everyone, as only this can lead to maximum success. That may be true, but I like to remember a phrase the developers of Helldivers 2 once said: “A game for everyone is a game for no one.”
This phrase is exactly the one that ARC Raiders should adhere to. It should remain true to its idea regarding difficulty. Not every game will please you, and that’s fine. Forcing a game into paths where it loses its identity just to become more popular is, in my opinion, not the right way.
I, for my part, had a lot of fun with the Server Slam and now I am sure that I will also be there at the release. And I also know that I will get beaten again, but I will face my downfall with a smile because I know that ARC Raiders is still fun.
Do you also think that ARC Raiders should remain that difficult, or would you like a dedicated PvE mode? We would love to hear your opinion in the comments! You can find more about the release here: ARC Raiders: All about release, price, and crossplay

A charity event by W Korea should raise awareness about breast cancer as a disease. However, many of the guests, including numerous K-Pop stars, did not behave as one would have hoped.
What kind of event was it? W Korea is a fashion magazine that recently organized a fundraising gala for breast cancer patients. With this charity event, they also aimed to highlight the importance of early breast cancer detection. The event took place on October 15, 2025, and is now making headlines.
In many TikTok videos currently circulating, partying K-Pop stars can be seen. The atmosphere is lively, many guests dance to the music, and there are many glasses visible, presumably filled with alcoholic beverages. For many affected individuals and viewers, the images of the evening are distressing.

Friendly Fire 8 is starting soon – Gronkh & Co. collect donations in the millions annually
K-Pop stars behave inappropriately
What is the problem? For many viewers, the event seems more like a celebrity party rather than an event aimed at raising awareness of a serious illness.
Among the guests are many well-known K-Pop stars, some of whom have clearly drunk too much. Among the inebriated guests are Giselle and Karina from the K-Pop group aespa. Videos show both struggling to stand on their own feet and keep their eyes open.
Moreover, the videos do not show any pink outfits or accessories that are usually worn at such events to signal that patients are not alone. Speeches and presentations are rarely seen in the videos.
The “highlight” of the event was a performance by rapper Jay Park. He performed the song Mommae, which could not be more inappropriate for an event focused on breast cancer: At one point, he sings that he would like to be introduced to the “twin sisters hanging from your breast.”
Actor Byeon Woo Seok is also the only one in the pictures who has a pink flower as an accessory on his suit. The color is associated with breast cancer awareness.
How is one reacting to the event?TikToker yoojiuen is a cancer patient herself and does not understand why the event is made into a party. She received her last chemotherapy treatment two days ago and knows how terrible it feels to be affected.
For her, her illness is not a dress code that can be dressed up with glamour. The event should focus on highlighting the illness and showing that patients are not alone. yoojiuen does not understand why people are celebrating so exuberantly without providing space for the disease.
Meanwhile, the event organizers also responded on Instagram. They apologized for causing discomfort and pain to patients and their families through the event. They stated they take the criticism seriously and will reevaluate the event.
Rapper Jay Park also apologized on X to those affected who felt attacked by his song. He wishes them good health and strength.
A game will soon start on Steam in Early Access that could make many extremely happy. It addresses certain aspects that a particular type of player sorely misses, and therefore draws on Red Dead Redemption 2.The demo has also convinced MeinMMO editor Alex.
For many years, I have been searching for it like the knights of the Round Table sought the Holy Grail. A game that satisfies my need for freedom. A game where I can travel through Wallachia for hours and feel the adventure. Preferably on the back of a faithful steed.
I last felt this sensation while playing Red Dead Redemption 2, when I ignored the story and explored the vast world from the saddle for hours, taming wild horses and simply enjoying the feeling of adventure.
Everything was just right: the animations of the horses were as beautiful as no other game had managed from my perspective, the environment was so diverse and inviting to explore, and the controls and the feeling of riding during my time in the saddle simply felt right to me.
As a passionate rider and leisure knight, this was my digital way to unwind and satisfy that wistful longing when I couldn’t get to the stable or especially in times when I didn’t yet own a horse. But somehow… something was always missing. The focus in RDR2 was not on the horses but rather on the story and a coherent representation of the “wild west” with a healthy dose of shooting and combat.
But a new game on Steam seems to hit the nail on the head and take exactly this aspect into focus: “The Legend of Khiimori.” The demo during the Steam Next Fest captivated me for what felt like an eternity, and the best part: You can still try the demo yourself until November 30, 2025. Early Access is planned to start on March 3, 2026.
Update from October 20, 2025, 1:00 PM: Shortly after we published our article, the start of Early Access was postponed. However, the demo was extended so you can still give it a try. We have adjusted the article accordingly.

Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori – Gameplay trailer for the new horse game with open world
On the Back of Horses Through Ancient Mongolia
What kind of game is this? In The Legend of Khiimori (formerly Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori), you take on the role of a young Mongolian in the 13th century who acts as a courier between different settlements. For this, you initially get a faithful horse by your side, which you must also take care of.
It needs food, attention, and water, and you can train it in various skills by moving around with it and focusing on activities that concentrate on these aspects. In settlements, you can swap and breed your horses to get the best horse for you. You can also catch and tame wild horses in the open world.
There are many different colors, and there are also various breeds in the finished game. In addition to the main story, where you delve into an ancient myth, you will complete various tasks: from transporting different goods, to collecting resources, to crafting items.
The focus is on realistic animations that can easily compete with those from Red Dead Redemption 2, and on survival in various biomes and weather conditions. You will need to plan your routes wisely so that neither your task nor you and your horse are in too much danger. Other wild dangers await you as well, which you can face with bow and arrow or flee from. The bow is also at your disposal for hunting.
You need to have the right plan, the right horse, and the right equipment to master your tasks. You can plan your routes with the extensive map and various markers, as well as make the necessary preparations in settlements. A game principle that I greatly enjoyed in the demo and that made me crave more.
With a focus on collaboration with the horse, combined with the leisurely journey through the picturesque regions of Mongolia and the adverse conditions that need to be overcome, The Legend of Khiimori offers exactly what I felt was missing in Red Dead Redemption 2.

If you feel in Battlefield 6 that your opponents can see you better than you can see them, it is due to your weapon and you should urgently change one thing.
What mechanic is involved? Battlefield 6 has changed the way opposing players are marked compared to its predecessors. Just like in the previous games, there are again two ways in which such a marking can occur:
In the game world
On the minimap
Marked players are represented by a colored diamond that is red by default. So if you are marked as an opposing player in the game world, you have a red diamond above your head.

Battlefield 6: Mit diesen Tipps werdet ihr zum besseren Squad-Spieler
You have a red marking above your head with every shot
What has changed? In past Battlefield titles, you were only marked on the minimap when you fired. The red diamond above your head in the game world was only there if you were actively marked by a player using the respective key.
In Battlefield 6, a marking now appears above your head with every shot when you are in an enemy’s line of sight.
As YouTuber TheXclusiveAce found out through detailed tests, this red marking in the game world is visible after a shot up to 75 meters away – this range also marks the sweet spot for snipers. However, the marking only lasts for a short moment.
In the comments of the YouTuber, many players complain that the developers mention nowhere that you are automatically marked in the game world when you shoot without a suppressor.
Can you prevent being marked? Yes, there are muzzle attachments that affect when and how you are marked for enemies. For example, if you use a muzzle brake, you are not marked in the game world even at short distances, but you appear on the minimap, no matter how far away you are.
Suppressors also eliminate your marking in the game world and additionally reduce the distance at which you are seen on the minimap to under 15 meters. So if you felt that your opponents could see you too well, it may be due to the thick red marking above your head, and you should try using a suppressor.
However, for a suppressor, you have to forgo a muzzle that helps you control the recoil. It might be advisable to use a weapon that is easily controllable. In our list of the best weapons in Battlefield 6, you will also find a section on the weapons with the lowest recoil: The best weapons in Battlefield 6 to gain the upper hand on the battlefield

Since 2008, the Hulk has been part of the MCU, but Mark Ruffalo, who took on the role in 2012, has not yet had a solo film. Even though he would finally love to have his own film, he also doesn’t believe that it will happen anytime soon.
What does Mark Ruffalo say about a solo Hulk film? In an interview on the YouTube channel GQ, Mark Ruffalo was asked various questions about his films. He was also asked questions about his roles in the many Marvel films. He was asked if he ever wished for a solo Hulk film. He gave a clear answer:
Yeah, I would love to have a solo Hulk film. I don’t know if you know the story, but it [the Hulk brand] doesn’t really belong to Marvel. It’s property of Universal. I don’t know if it will ever really happen, to be honest.

While Marvel can use the character as a side character in films or series, the distribution rights for a solo film lie with Universal. Even in the MCU film The Incredible Hulk (2008), Universal handled the distribution in the USA. At that time, Edward Norton played Bruce Banner.
In the interview, he goes on to say that they probably have regular discussions about the topic, but he doesn’t know if audiences still want a Hulk film. However, if they could approach it correctly, he believes that fans would definitely love it.
In 2012, Mark Ruffalo took over the role in Avengers and since then, he has played the Hulk in various Marvel productions, just not in a solo film. That is not so easy in today’s MCU.

The Hulk is at a Standstill
What does MeinMMO editor Nikolas Hernes say about a Hulk solo film? Basically, I find the hero Hulk incredibly interesting. He is at his core a tragic figure who has been burdened with a great weight. But Marvel has not built on that.
The character development of the Hulk has happened off-screen in the MCU since Age of Ultron, meaning not actively in the films.
Between Age of Ultron and Thor: Ragnarok
Between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame
Between Avengers: Endgame and She-Hulk
This has wasted a lot of material if no film is made between the films. The Hulk seems to have overcome his tragedy and now lives comfortably with his burden. Within the films, he even has had a son. These are all possible storylines that could have been implemented as a film.
Unless you film a Hulk from another universe, it’s difficult to do something with the character. But what do you think?
Could Marvel make a new Hulk film? It is unknown how exactly and for how long the rights distribution with Universal lies. However, Marvel and Disney could negotiate. The film character Spider-Man also does not belong to Disney. The film rights for the web-slinger lie with Sony, even though they could have gotten even more.
What’s next for the Hulk in the MCU? His last appearance was in the series She-Hulk in 2022. Since then, it has been relatively quiet around the Hulk. It has not yet been confirmed that Mark Ruffalo will return as the Hulk for Avengers: Doomsday. Allegedly, he is also supposed to appear in the next Spider-Man film, but in September 2025, Ruffalo stated that he had not seen a script for the film yet (Source: GamesRadar).

Increase your level faster with the right tools
Are the tools that important? Yes, they are indeed. The higher the quality of your tools, the faster you can mine stones and ores. This also affects the faster leveling of mining. Try, whenever possible, to craft or buy better tools.
You can find out how to best craft tools or other products in this detailed crafting guide from MeinMMO:

Level up Mining quickly – Here’s how
From level 1 to 10: For these levels, you should initially focus on stone and iron. Generally, you will automatically reach this level before you even look at this guide. From level 10, silver is added, and the routes become more interesting.
From level 10 to 100: In this level range, you will quickly focus only on iron and silver. Stones work for leveling, but they are extremely slow. The ores are significantly more effective.
For quick leveling at these stages, we recommend the following two routes, one located in Everfall and the other in Cutlass Keys. Both routes take between 10 and 20 minutes, which also corresponds roughly to the respawn time of the ores.
The route in Everfall is sometimes crowded, but if you’re alone, there are almost no enemies in your way.
The route in Everfall.
For the route in Cutlass Keys, you need a higher level but gather more silver and gold. You should have reached level 45 by now.
The route in Cutlass Keys.
From level 100 to 150: At level 100, star metal comes into play, which you will continue to need for armor and weapons.
If you want to collect star metal at a low level, you can go to the border between Windsward and Everfall. There you will find iron, silver, and some star metal nodes.
If you want to level your mining skill but don’t have a high character level, you will find happiness here in Windsward.
If you have already reached a higher level and really want to level quickly, you need to go to the Depths. There you will find a good route with relatively few monsters. If you want, you can also clear your inventory in town in between.
If you want to level quickly and find star metal, you must go to the Depths.
From level 150 to 200: If you want to maximize your mining skill, but still don’t have a high character level, it will now be really difficult. However, there are a total of 6 orichalcum veins in the areas of Windsward and Everfall that you can mine. Additionally, there are two star metal veins along the path shown here.
The orichalcum veins in the low-level area.
If you have already reached level 200, you will find the most effective spots in Shattered Mountain or can enter the new area Sulfur Sands. Starting at level 205, you can mine any ore deposit on Aeternum.
The orichalcum veins in Shattered Mountain.
More benefits to make leveling easier
Extra Constitution brings bonuses: The more points you have invested in Strength in the attributes window, the more benefits you gain in mining:
50 points or more = +10% more speed in mining
100 points or more = 20% more durability (inventory weight)
150 points or more = 10% less weight from processed items
200 points or more = +10% more speed in mining
250 points or more = +10% more yield in mining
300 points = 25% chance to mine an ore with one hit
Regional reputation also plays a role. With the regional reputation card Gathering, you can mine ores even faster, and that means gaining experience faster. If you primarily gather ores in an area, you can rely on this buff. Have you already reached level 250 in mining? Or is that not your focus at all? Let us know in the comments below.

Grab 5 stylish portals for all your characters in World of Warcraft. The effort required is minimal.
A large part of the time in World of Warcraft is spent traveling from point A to point B. Sometimes it’s so confusing that we even have a guide on how to reach various locations in the world. You can often shorten this by using portals to individual dungeons or raids. These can also be unlocked in Legion Remix – much easier than it was back then.
Start video
WoW Legion Remix: This insane time travel works
5 Portals to Legion for all accounts
What portals can you unlock? The portals apply to the following 5 dungeons:
Raven’s Hold (“Black Rook Hold”)
Court of Stars (“Court of Stars”)
Darkheart Thicket (“Darkheart Thicket”)
Halls of Valor (“Halls of Valor”)
Neltharion’s Lair (“Neltharions Lair”)
The portals bring you right up to the respective instance portals upon use. Additionally, the portals share a cooldown of 8 hours, which is reset when you complete a keystone dungeon.
The portals are suitable for traveling quickly through the world – even if you want to go back to the old areas of Legion for other reasons and don’t want to visit a Mage or travel via Dalaran.
When you unlock the portals, the Mages will get a vacation.
Why can you unlock the portals? This is because the 5 dungeons mentioned above later became part of a “Mythic+” rotation. Blizzard has slightly revised them and added new rewards – including the portals. The game data stores: “When the dungeon is completed at Mythic+20, grant the portal” – and this is also the case in Remix.
A few days ago, obtaining these portals was already possible, but it was deemed a bug by Blizzard. The feature was disabled, and the portal was removed from the corresponding accounts. After a few days of reflection, the developers seemed to think, “Why not?” and reactivated the feature via hotfix. Since this change was also noted in the official patch notes, the unlocks should also be permanent this time.
How difficult is it to unlock the portals? Mythic+20 may sound like a dangerous, exhausting endeavor, but it becomes a breeze once you’ve obtained high gear. With an item level of around 700, you should be able to easily complete a dungeon of level 20 or higher – even if you’re not that experienced.
If you have at least one character in the group with item level 740 and more than 100 points in the final talent of the artifact weapon, you can also easily be carried through such a dungeon. However, you will become significantly stronger in Legion Remix over the next few days. If the portals still feel unreachable, a few more hours of playtime could make a big difference. You will soon have more portals, but one other thing will vanish: Addons. How WoW is supposed to look without addons, explained by the Game Director.
