The world of Warhammer 40,000 offers dozens of different species and factions, all of which have unique stories. Unfortunately, many of these xenos and other peoples are overlooked because often everything revolves around the bulky Space Marines. MeinMMO presents you with a few cool factions as alternatives.
Especially those new to Warhammer 40,000 will first be greeted by Space Marines. The genetically modified super-soldiers are the poster boys of the franchise and as such are often represented – even too often, as many fans think.
Whether in books, games, or series: Space Marines are overrepresented everywhere. In the tabletop alone, there are several chapters of the Space Marines that can be played as their own army, and new models are constantly being released. The entire new set consists only of Space Marines from 10,000 years ago.
However, there are many other factions in Warhammer 40,000 that have at least as cool units and sometimes even wilder backstories. The warlike Orks are actually space fungi with an insatiable thirst for battle.
In this list, we show you a few factions and species that have little material and are often overlooked. Perhaps you will find a (new) favorite.

The T’au seek peace with all – if necessary, even through violence
As one of the “newer” armies, the T’au Empire arrived at the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop in 2001 and has steadily evolved since then. In the world, the T’au are the youngest known people, yet highly gifted.
The T’au have developed from the Stone Age to interstellar travel within 6,000 years – but completely without magic and without traveling through the Warp as humans know it. Humans needed millions of years for that. They have a humanoid form with blue skin and no noses.

Warhammer 40.000: Die Lore zum Sternenreich der T’au
As a “special feature” of the people, the members follow the belief in the “Greater Good”, the T’au’va: the way to maintain perfection, roughly what Buddhism teaches in our world. The people fundamentally strive for peace but do not shy away from war if their neighbors refuse to submit to the T’au’va. The concept has contributed to their reputation as “space communists.” More on that can be read in the special:
Compared to many other factions, the T’au do not play a major role on a galactic level because they (still) do not control a large area or have significant capabilities for long-distance travel.
World of Warcraft Legion Remix is filled with great class stories. We show you the best campaigns that you should definitely play.
In World of Warcraft, the “Legion Remix” event is currently active. Although most people primarily play for the numerous rewards that include those for the upcoming housing, there are also good reasons to dive back into Legion.
One of the best features of Legion was the questlines that were only available for specific classes, namely the so-called “Order Hall Campaigns.” Normally, it takes many days to fully experience these campaigns, as there are often long “waiting quests” in between where you have to wait for the completion of a mission at the mission table.

WoW Legion Remix: This insane time travel works
However, in Legion Remix, these quests are essentially abolished, as they are considered instantly fulfilled. Therefore, it is possible to complete the Order Hall Campaigns in almost one go.
We present to you the 5 best Order Hall campaigns. If you haven’t played them yet, you should tackle them within the next 3 months – because that’s how long you have left before Legion Remix disappears again.
Rank 5: Warlock
The Warlock campaign is characterized not so much by the actual progression of the story, but rather by the whole “surrounding” – such as the Order Hall or the companions that can be unlocked there.
For the Order Hall of Warlocks, it is a world of the Burning Legion that is being annexed by the Warlocks. The former home of a pit lord is swiftly captured – along with the remaining lesser demons.
In the Warlock campaign, you conquer an entire world.
Warlocks usually play a subordinate role in the grand world story of World of Warcraft. Here you can find a large number of well-known Warlocks in one place for the first time, who together implement quite strong plans while simultaneously trying to outdo each other with internal power games.
And yes, of course, there is also an extra area with plenty of cushions and a whole host of succubi to keep the Warlocks entertained after a long day of demon subjugation. Just for that, the visit is already worth it.

On the account of streamer NoWay on Twitch, someone held a stream while the channel owner was deep asleep. This is unsettling – both for NoWay and the community.
What happened? The popular Twitch streamer NoWay, known primarily for his content about League of Legends, addressed his community on x.com with a post of a different kind.
This is not about a round of his favorite game, but something much more serious. NoWay writes: “There you are sleeping peacefully and someone just starts a high-quality mobile stream on my Twitch account.”
The streamer shares an image showing the interface of an Android device:
Source: @noway4u_sir via x.com, as of October 18, 2025, 1:45 PM
So an unknown person simply started a stream without NoWay’s knowledge, who was asleep in the meantime. Streamer TrilluXe experienced something similar some time ago. This is understandably a spooky thought. NoWay himself writes in the comments: “So scary, seriously. How did he get in there?”
A question that also occupies the community.

What do the users think? Under the post, comments from users gather who think about how it was possible for an unknown person to gain access to NoWay’s account.
User Tengu writes: “Could it not somehow have been a livestream phone? In the stream, I believe it was seen that it was at 4%. Maybe there was still some connection and when it had enough battery and turned on, it got activated?”
Orion wonders: “Used public Wi-Fi somewhere on the go? Your passwords found in some data breaches? For the latter, there are plenty of services online that check this for you. Just change the data first, I hope that’s enough to sort it out.”
NoWay responds that the unknown person did not have the password, but “only” the stream key. This is a key for authorization that clearly identifies a stream and allows you to go live.
Normally, the key would always be reset, NoWay continues. Then user Bengeljo asks if the streamer might have forgotten to properly delete the key, for example on a foreign PC where he was logged in. However, NoWay always streams via his own devices, even when he is on the go.
Another user named Bjonik, on the other hand, suspects hacked Twitch extensions behind the incident. He recommends disconnecting all linked accounts. But what really lay behind this “takeover” remains a mystery.
NoWay seems to have been lucky in this case that no greater mischief was done with his account. The incident once again shows how leak-prone some so-called secure systems can be. What is your opinion on this? Feel free to share it in the comments. Normally, NoWay provides news about LoL: Twitch streamer NoWay reaches the highest rank of LoL in 10 regions, but he fears the next one

Fans of League of Legends have many suggestions and wishes regarding the game. However, one of them has finally been heard just in time for the season and resonates emotionally with the community.
Which community wish is being fulfilled? It has been 7 years. Back in 2018, there was a map that had burned into the hearts of players. Fans have long waited and wished for the “Summoner’s Rift Winter Map” to make its comeback.
In a humorous video on YouTube, executive producer Paul Bellezza explains while making a snow angel that the time has finally come: Because so many have asked for it again and again, the coveted Winter Map will return with Patch 25.23 on November 19, 2025. Bellezza states that the reason for its long absence was technical issues that “required a bit of work.”
A first impression of the “new” Winter Map is also shown, setting the stage for the new update. The announcement is well received by the community, as expressed emotionally in a thread on Reddit.

What does the community say about the announcement? On Reddit, the community is exchanging thoughts on the return and is celebrating with currently over 5,200 upvotes and over 400 comments about the fulfillment of their long-standing wish. Many comments are emotional and nostalgic.
SpiralVortex raves: “I don’t care if that sounds cheesy, but nostalgia makes me a bit emotional. I am so happy.”
Burst_LoL remembers: “Honestly, I was brought to tears. That was the OG League I started with.”
BannanDylan celebrates: “The first update in a long time that totally hypes me. We are damn back, guys!”
MrWedge18 demands: “I want a behind-the-scenes look at this.”
Many users also refer to it as an early Christmas miracle and never expected such an announcement after all this time. The new look and atmosphere of the map are especially praised. There are hopes for matching objectives and animations that would make this return perfect.
The Boys has received a successful and popular spin-off with Gen V. The series has experienced a significant story twist in the current second season, where the creators initially feared you would recognize it from afar.
WarningSpoiler: We reveal an important twist in the story of Gen V in the article. If you haven’t seen the second season, especially episode 7, it’s better to stop reading.
The Boys received its own spin-off, Gen V, in 2023 with the first season. This takes place before the fourth season of the main series and tells the story of a group of students being trained to become superheroes at the Godolkin University Schooler of Crimefighting – short God U.
On September 17, 2025, the second season premiered and is currently on episode 7. This included the biggest twist in the story so far.
The trailer for Season 1 of the ‘The Boys’ spin-off Gen V
Who is Cipher?
What was the twist? The twist concerns the new head of the university, who goes by the name Cipher. His special power is controlling other people. Soon, many viewers likely wondered what was going on with the character and whether he was hiding a secret.
This has now been revealed: Cipher essentially does not exist. He is being used as a puppet by the presumed-dead and severely burned Thomas Godolkin himself. Like a parasite, Godolkin has nested himself in the body of a man named Doug and uses him as a host.
Thomas survived the fire that left him severely disfigured. Meanwhile, the character Marie is attempting to restore his body so he can help the young students in their fight against Cipher: It’s unfortunate that she only ensured that Godolkin in his original form regains power.
The show’s runners feared before the broadcast that many fans could guess this twist.
What do the creators of the series say? Michelle Fazekas is the showrunner behind Gen V and spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the twist:
We sprinkle in small clues that can be recognized in hindsight. Even the fact that this guy drinks disgusting shakes with chicken and other ingredients has a reason: He tastes nothing. He doesn’t care about this body. He just tries to keep it alive to achieve his goal.
Those who paid close attention may have become suspicious while watching and suspected that something was wrong with Cipher. The charred body in his room could have been a clue. Whether that means they guessed the twist directly is another question that has occupied Michelle Fazekas and her team:
We were afraid that everyone would figure it out. I believe some people will figure it out. I don’t know if you can guess that it is actually the same person, that this guy is just some guy. He is basically just a body that [Godolkin] has tried out.
It will be exciting to see how the series develops after this twist. What about you? Have you seen the episode and were you surprised by the twist? Or did you see it coming from miles away?

The hunt for rare Shiny Pokémon continues in Pokémon Legends: Z-A. This time, you can even get one easily by completing a side quest.
Where and how do you get the Shiny Pokémon? In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, you can get a Shiny Mareep when you complete a specific side mission. So you don’t have to search forever and hope that it appears eventually.
To get the Shiny Mareep, you need to do the following:
Complete the main mission 08
Find the Trainer Sofina in Wilderness Sector 1
Take the side quest 017 with the name “A Shiny Mareep?” from her
The desired Mareep is located in the same sector when you climb a ladder – you can’t miss it
There, you will see a herd of normal Mareep, and directly behind them is the Shiny variant
Turn in the quest at Sofina and then catch the Shiny Mareep

Tips for hunting Shinies in Pokémon Legends: Z-A
What are Shinies anyway? Shinies are differently colored variants of the normal designs and are also called Shiny Pokémon. They are extremely rare and often not easy to catch. Accordingly, they are highly sought after by trainers and a common target. You need to show patience and skill when hunting for them.
How can you recognize Shinies? First of all, by their different color compared to the “normal” and more common variant of the Pokémon. They are often surrounded by a kind of “sparkle,” making them stand out better when you encounter them.
Can you increase the chance of finding Shinies? Yes, you need a so-called Shiny Charm. A pendant that you receive when you complete Mable’s research. When you wear it, Shinies appear more frequently in the wild.
What else should you watch out for? As always, when you want to catch a Pokémon you desire, you should be careful not to accidentally knock it out. If you see a Shiny, it’s better to save beforehand before you attack and play it safe in battle.
In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, you can also secure various secret gifts again. Through them, you can occasionally receive special Pokémon or items. To ensure you don’t miss any active gifts and codes, we keep an eye on it and have created an overview: Pokémon Legends: Z-A – All valid codes and secret gifts

Battlefield 6 just received a significant adjustment a few days ago to a popular mode. Many players are unhappy with this, which is why the developers are now reversing the changes.
What was the change? The conquest mode, called Conquest, is a very popular game mode in Battlefield. Each team has a certain number of tickets, which countdown as soon as a player is eliminated. If a team runs out of tickets, it is defeated.
The developers recently reduced the number of tickets per team from 1,000 to 900, 800, and 700 – depending on the map. This was meant to ensure that a match ends normally, and not just because time runs out. This change drew criticism from many players. They suggested instead simply increasing the time limit. They generally have no problem with long matches; on the contrary: rounds lasting 40 minutes or longer are even desired.
The outcry has now had an effect: The developers announced in a post that they are reversing the changes.
Battlefield 6: Mit diesen Tipps werdet ihr zum besseren Squad-Spieler
Positive feedback from players
What do the developers say? In a post on x.com, the devs write that they received a lot of feedback regarding the reduction of tickets. This ultimately led them to reverse this crucial change. Accordingly, the number of tickets will be increased back to 1,000.
The post continues:
Matches on large maps like Mirak Valley and Operation Firestorm could have longer round times. We are keeping an eye on your feedback and continuing to collect gameplay data to optimize the flow of the game.
Looking at the feedback from players, it seems that long round times are not an issue. The post announcing the changes is already well received and generates many positive comments:
“Thank you for getting it right this time & for listening to the community,” writes Lea.
“Guys, this is what we want. In Battlefield 1, you received a lot of praise for the long rounds that could occur in the Frontline mode. This is what your fans want. No one wants round times like in a CoD Team Deathmatch in the large modes,” explains Eric.
“Thank you for listening to community feedback,” adds xTheNiico.
“Where are the compensations?” asks LvxSaint – a question that is viewed critically by other users.
Aside from that, there are some other changes in Battlefield 6, primarily affecting the progression system.
What will be changed? The developers explain in another post on x.com that they want to improve the progression system. Among other things:
XP per minute for completed matches has been increased by 10 %.
XP from daily challenges has been increased by 40 %.
The XP required to unlock the first 20 hardware ranks has been reduced.
For challenges that previously required career ranks 20, 23, and 26 to start, now career ranks 10, 15, and 20 are required.
The developers also note that there may currently be erroneous displays with weapons that have already unlocked attachments. However, these should disappear once a round has been played with the weapon.
ARC Raiders is on the starting blocks and attracts a lot of players in its latest playtest. A particular point of contention seems to be emerging: the difficulty.
What is the playtest and how can one participate? ARC Raiders is set to release on October 30, 2025, and developer Embark has started a final tech test to thoroughly evaluate the servers and technology one last time before release. From October 17 to October 19, you can play early content of the upcoming extraction shooter.
No registration is required – the test is open to all interested players on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. During the 24-hour peak, the playtest reached around 189,668 players on Steam alone on the first day (see SteamDB, as of: 10/18/2025, 10:30 AM).
The first content of the new shooter is already well received by the community. However, one point divides the players, as the difficulty level seems to be a point of contention for many (see Reddit).

“Embark, don’t cave in …”
What does the community say about the difficulty? User Forward_Problem_7550 opens his thread on Reddit with the words: “Embark, don’t cave in … ARC Raiders is perfect as it is.” He refers to the criticism from some players that the new shooter is too hard.
The ARCs (the robots you have to fight) are considered by some to be too challenging as opponents, and newcomers to the genre have little chance to join in as they are quickly mowed down by more experienced players. Some players have also wished for a pure PvE experience without opposing players and the high risks of loss from death.
But Forward_Problem_7550 believes that these points are exactly what make ARC Raiders so special and unique in his view:
Not every game has to hold your hand. The difficulty defines its identity. It ensures that every encounter matters and every victory feels earned. People often complain at first, but those who stick around, those who understand … They will ensure that this game is successful in the long term. Please stay true to your vision and do not let ARC Raiders become another watered-down game just because some people don’t like it.
You have created something special. Do not change it.
Over 1,800 upvotes and around 590 comments support his viewpoint (as of: 10/18/2025, 10:45 AM). Most appreciate the difficulty and the good AI of the ARCs and believe that an option to adjust difficulty or nerf opponents would destroy some of the magic of the gameplay experience.
Similarly, commentators point out that this is only a playtest and much could change with the release on October 30. Additionally, the developers are very community-oriented and rely primarily on player feedback for changes, so it will eventually be shown which side prevails.
A fan of colorful building blocks applied to LEGO and was supposed to prove his creativity during the job interview. His mini diorama impressed the community so much that he got the job.
What was the task during the job interview? Anyone applying for a sales position at LEGO apparently has to master more than just a simple job interview at some branches. At least, Zealousideal-Many-40 reports on Reddit that he was supposed to spontaneously create something of his own from a bowl full of bricks.
Since the long-time LEGO fan was allowed to take his work home after the interview, he proudly presented it a little later on Reddit:

At that time, he did not yet know whether he would get the job. However, the community did not let that stop them from celebrating the small mini diorama with the slimy explorer – with over 17,000 upvotes and more than 200 comments.
Some even suggested that he should apply as a designer or work his way up to that position. The set would be great; if it hit the shelves, they would buy it.
In the comments, Zealousideal-Many-40 explained that he was tired of working in a restaurant. Since there is a LEGO branch near his university, he just wanted to give it a try. Maybe after graduation, something will come up with a designer role.
Select a MMO video…
Creativity that pays off
How does the story end? A few weeks later, Zealousideal-Many-40 spoke up again on Reddit, this time accompanied by a picture showing him happily in a new LEGO apron. He got the job! In his post, he explains:
I didn’t expect my last post to have such an impact! I just wanted to let you know that I made it!! Thank you so much for your support and kind words.
This post even received over 36,000 thumbs up and more than 380 comments.
Dapper-Egg7861 explains on Reddit: “Congratulations!! I remember seeing your post some time ago and was totally amazed by how cute the scene you created was.”
Spyro_XyX works at LEGO and writes on Reddit: “The best job in the world, my friend. It’s really my favorite place and makes me so happy in these tough times!”
FotoChuqui celebrates the update on Reddit: “I come from Brazil and it has always been my dream to work at LEGO. I saw your post before you got the job, and I’m so happy and even proud that you got it. Congratulations on your achievement! Good job!”
For some, this is a nice example that it doesn’t always come down to a perfect resume and experience. Sometimes spontaneity and creativity are enough to land your dream job.
The movies of Star Wars are full of exciting villains, but even outside the cinema, there are numerous rogues that deserve a place on the big screen. Below we present our favorites.
How was the list created? Star Wars has produced some iconic antagonists. Just think of Darth Vader or Darth Sidious, aka Palpatine. Almost every child knows them, but outside the major films, there are equally interesting characters.
In this list, we have selected a range of 10 villains who deserve an appearance in the cinema – whether as a main character or as a villain opposing the heroes. The individual figures do not compete with each other in this case, which is why we have not assigned them any rankings.
They are all pretty cool in their own right and just a selection from many other potential candidates. If you know any more, feel free to share them with us in the comments at the end.

The Beginning of the Star Wars Sequels in the Trailer: The Awakening of the Force
Darth Bane
Appearances: Clone Wars (series), Jedi vs Sith 1-6 (comics) …
Let’s start with a true legend from the Star Wars universe. Darth Bane was a human who rose to become a Sith Lord and had to witness the mighty Empire disintegrate. This inspired him to create the so-called “Rule of Two”.
It states that there should always be one Master and one Apprentice among the Sith to maintain balance in the Force. This story would be wonderful for a movie. The rule, after all, had a great influence on the further history of the Sith and the galaxy, and could provide enough material for an exciting, fairly dark cinematic experience.

In recent months, an experiment of a special kind took place: After 30 days in space, a kind of modern “Noah’s Ark” returned to Earth to provide insights that should noticeably facilitate our stay in space.
What is this Noah’s Ark? The module “Bion-M No. 2” has earned this nickname because it carried 75 mice, more than 1,500 flies, as well as countless cell cultures, microorganisms, and plant seeds on board.
The “crew” launched into the sky with a Soyuz rocket, a Russian launch vehicle, on August 19, 2025, to orbit the Earth for 30 days. On September 19, a successful landing occurred, as space.com reports (via GameStar).
During the experiment, the mini-menagerie was exposed to high cosmic radiation at an altitude of 370 to 380 kilometers. After landing, scientists are to find out whether there are impacts on the motor activity of the flies or their nervous systems, for example.
Additionally, they want to investigate the influence of space flights and space factors on the biology of plants and microorganisms. Conducting experiments with animals for this purpose can certainly be viewed critically.

What is the goal of the experiment?

This also includes optimizing the radiation safety of new manned spacecraft.
Russian War of Aggression Against Ukraine The war in Ukraine can evoke worries and fears. You are not alone in this. If you feel uneasy due to the current situation or are plagued by dark thoughts: Help is available, among other sources, at the help hotline “Mutruf”. You can reach the association at 04191/27 4928 0.
Under the action 2Gether, an emergency relief and donation campaign has been initiated to benefit those in need in Ukraine. More information can be found on the blog at GamesWirtschaft.de or directly on Betterplace.org.
However, through the experiment, one also hopes to gain insights into the general pattern of life in the universe. Additionally, the theory of so-called panspermia has been checked. This theory suggests that something from space landed on the planet, thereby making life on Earth possible.
To verify this, basalt rocks embedded with microbial strains were placed inside the capsule’s hull. If these microbes did not survive the tremendous forces during re-entry into the atmosphere, it would indicate that the panspermia theory might not hold water. However, a final result has not yet been shared regarding this.
The old races in World of Warcraft are soon to become obsolete. At least, that’s what one might think when seeing what the Haranir have to offer.
One of the new features of World of Warcraft Midnight is a new allied race. The Haranir join both the Horde and the Alliance after receiving little attention in The War Within. Yet, even if some may not like the aesthetics of this race at first glance, the variety seems unmatched.
A player is now showing just how versatile the Haranir can be and why their customization options easily outshine those of all other races.

What’s going on with the Haranir? The Haranir have a huge range of customization options; even the Dracthyr with their visage forms pale in comparison. Just how extensive this truly is, is shown by the player Firewindwaterearth in the WoW subreddit. There, he compares the options of the Haranir with those of other races. Better yet – he simply recreates the other races with the Haranir! But see for yourselves:

What does the community wish for? The reactions from the community are mixed. Some are excited about what is possible with the Haranir. The diverse selection of options and customizations allows significantly more freedom than with all other races in World of Warcraft.
But exactly this gnaws at another part of the player base – as many believe that Blizzard urgently needs to improve the existing races. Many of the “old” races have only a handful of options in numerous categories:
“The customization options of the Haranir are completely insane and that is great, but it’s just a sad comparison with the minimal options offered to the core races (and some allied races). So much so that you can almost [replace the other races with the Haranir]. They effectively replace Night Elves, Trolls, and even Void Elves.” – LinkedGaming
“This is fantastic. But it’s also kind of funny and so random that the ‘underground bat people’ are so flexible.” – DrainTheMuck
“Man, it’s kind of ridiculous that they have such good customization options that they can just cosplay half of all the other races.” – Belucard
If it’s purely about visual diversity, many might be considering starting a Haranir character in Midnight – or subjecting their current main to a little race change. How will you handle this? With the Haranir, you can also move into your new homes – unless you get reported by other players.

Diablo 4 is currently considered the perfect game for casual players. With Season 11, Blizzard aims to significantly increase the challenge of the ARPG, making it noticeably more demanding in the future.
On the other hand, there are the hardcore grinders who are already tackling Torment Level 4 shortly after the season starts. They regularly complain that Diablo 4 becomes boring too quickly and offers too few endgame contents. There has been criticism that Diablo 4 somehow wants to please everyone and therefore is worse than it could be.
With Season 11, there seems to be an intention to approach this balancing act anew. The game is intended to challenge you more in the future, even outside of the high Torment levels. And bonuses that you were previously able to keep permanently will need to be earned again.

Seasonal Ranks Replace Regional Progress
What does Blizzard want to change now? In the recent “Sanctuary Sitdown” with Diablo expert Rhykker, the developers of Diablo 4 reported on YouTube that some aspects of the game are set to become harder. Planned adjustments include changes to the season journey, defense, monsters, and random events.
This is what changes concretely:
Season Rank replaces Regional Progress: The previous regional progress will only remain in the Eternal Realm. In the seasonal realms, it will be replaced by the Season Rank, which is closely tied to the season journey. You level up your rank by completing Capstone Dungeons – similar to how it was with unlocking World Tiers (the Torment levels remain in the Crucible). Season Ranks grant additional skill and Paragon points. If you complete optional tasks in the season journey, you will receive bonuses such as skill points, ashes, and cosmetics. The Altars of Lilith and Akarat will now provide experience and small rewards, but no more permanent power or attribute bonuses.
The Season Rank replaces the regional progress in Diablo 4.
Monsters Become More Dangerous: Monsters respond more intelligently and dynamically in combat. Monster affixes are stronger and require tactical approaches. There are 20 new affixes, and existing affixes will be revised. “Lesser evils,” such as Duriel or Andariel, may surprise you in activities.
Change in Damage Reduction: Armor will now reduce all damage, including both physical and non-physical. The previous deductions per Torment level will be completely eliminated. Paragon points will grant multiplicative bonuses on defensive values.
“Toughness” will then be a new stat that summarizes and clarifies damage mitigation.
“Fortitude” will be transformed into an additional life reserve.
Healing with Potions: The base potion capacity will be reduced to 4 potions, healing instantly by 35% of your maximum health. Potion upgrades will be removed as they heal a fixed amount. You will automatically regenerate a potion every 30 seconds, in addition to bottle drops. The affix “life on hit” will be improved.
New Challenges Through Leaderboards and Seasonal “Gifts”
If that is not enough, you can also compete against other players in the new leaderboard and go through the Tower, a multi-level, time-controlled dungeon. You unlock the Tower via the Obelisk in Cerrigar and can then choose any difficulty you have already unlocked in the Crucible.
On top of that, there will be new seasonal gifts. These are items that you can use in your inventory to gain special bonuses. There will be rewards, “cleansed” and “corrupted” gifts – the latter increase the difficulty of certain activities:

In Blue Protocol: Star Resonance features eight different classes, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. However, one class has a unique ability that makes it particularly strong for the dungeons in the endgame.
What is the best class in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance? The best class in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is the Frost Mage because it has a skill that is embodied in its name: freezing.
While other classes can achieve higher DPS numbers, the Ice Mage brings particularly strong AoE and a lot of utility. As a ranged character, it also has high survival chances in the dungeons of the game as it can easily dodge many enemy abilities.
Its two builds can also be switched regularly to adapt to any situation in the endgame.
Why is the class particularly suitable for the endgame? The endgame of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance consists largely of dungeons in Master mode, which are particularly challenging and require good teamwork. While each class has its own strengths and weaknesses, the frozen enemies created by the Frost Mage serve as a strong aid to alleviate the burden on tanks and healers.
The Frost Mage freezes many enemies with its abilities, stunning them in the process. As a result, they no longer deal damage and can even be kept in a stun lock with the right combination. This does not apply to bosses, but it makes the add phases easier.

How the Frost Mage plays as an AoE Bomber
The Frost Mage focuses primarily on the Icicle build for freezing enemies in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance. With it, you deal damage to enemies using Frost Lance before you can then summon an endless number of ice meteors to rain down on the enemies for a period of time.
The Meteor Storm ability absolutely requires the talent Endless Cold, which can be found in the skill tree. Only the talent allows the combination of the Frost Lance and Meteor Storm abilities, which lead to the strong meteor shower.
The “Meteor Storm” ability ensures that all enemies without CC immunity are held down. Through the ultimate ability Glacier Hymn of the specialization, enemies are also frozen for a time in Permafrost, stunning them as well. The combination of both abilities provides good utility and a lot of extra damage.
Which Battle Imagines are suitable? The right Battle Imagine enhances the strength of your character. If you do not want to spend money on the anime MMORPG, you can easily obtain the Battle Imagine Inferno Goblin Mage.
This interrupts the enemies, which again helps with crowd control and provides a passive value that grants your character a significant boost in intelligence.
If you want to spend money on Blue Protocol: Star Resonance, you can also opt for the typical Battle Imagines Airona or Tina.
In Blue Protocol: Star Resonance, different classes shine in various game modes. The Frost Mage is particularly suitable for the dungeon grind in the endgame and thus for a large part of the overall endgame activities of the season.
Fans have had to wait a long time for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, which is set to release on Steam. MeinMMO editor Jasmin reveals whether the wait was worth it.
The release of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 has been postponed repeatedly over more than 5 years. Reasons included a change in the development studio and layoffs in the leadership team. Therefore, it remained unclear whether these delays had benefited the game.
At gamescom 2025, I was already able to play 2 hours of the vampire game. I really enjoyed the preview, which is why I looked forward positively to the full release. Now I had the opportunity to test the full version of the game until the end – and after just over 19 hours, I enjoyed the credits.
While playing, I noticed even more things that confirmed but also diminished my impression from the preview report. I will reveal in detail what I particularly liked about the game – and where compromises were made.
Here you can see the gameplay trailer:

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 showcases thrilling gameplay in the trailer
The vampire game is like a detective story to puzzle through
We awaken as a nomad or nomadess, depending on our gender choice. This is a vampire ancestor who has been in a deep sleep for a century. Accordingly, we first need to get our bearings and figure out how to navigate the new era.
Quickly, we realize that we are not alone – in our head is a man named Fabien, whose identity we need to uncover. He suffers from amnesia, just like us – not a good combination.
Additionally, we discover a strange symbol on our hand. It is important to find out what this mark is and where it comes from. Throughout the game, there are many puzzles to solve. Overall, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 plays out like an interactive detective story, where you as a viewer can guess who the murderer actually is.
The setting is the snowy Seattle – of course only at night, since we are a vampire who avoids sunlight. In the city, there are only a few cafes and buildings that we can enter. The map we see at the beginning is unfortunately only expanded over time by individual areas like sewers. Our vampire must not have claustrophobia.
Additionally, the city feels empty. Sure, it’s nighttime, but the NPCs I drain see strikingly similar. There are only a few pre-made types that repeat. Cars are also absent, at least moving ones. This might also be due to the snow in the city, but I would have at least expected a few snowplows.
There are numerous twists during the story that I personally didn’t foresee. Many characters have dark secrets or motives that we have to uncover gradually. This makes the characters multifaceted and really interesting, so I wanted to find out more about them.
The agony of choice – or rather not?
This becomes particularly important in another aspect: We can influence the outcome of the detective story a bit. When interacting with the characters, there are different dialogue options. We can determine whether certain people are friendly towards us or if they are already displeased with our presence.
The clans play an important role as well. Different people have different opinions about the various clans, and these conflicts are also important to the story. For those who have never engaged with the universe, the number of foreign terms like Kainskind can initially be overwhelming. Here, I recommend the lexicon, where such words can be looked up at any time – making the game accessible for newcomers.
Depending on the clan we choose at the start and the dialogue options, different possibilities arise for the grand finale. In between, there are also moments where our actions have consequences. Certain characters survive, and we encounter them again later – or not.
However, I didn’t feel that my clan choice or dialogue options had a significant impact. There are individual dialogue options that suddenly appear, but they are not as strongly integrated as, for example, in the RPG Baldur’s Gate 3. Some of them even seemed more hindering to me and annoyed my counterpart.
Even the choice of clothing has an effect. However, there is only a different comment, almost a fit-check from the conversation partner. I did not receive any other dialogue options as a result.
The biggest disappointment for me are the side quests. Here, I noticed no influence on the main story. For a long time, I didn’t know why I was doing them, aside from the experience points. They all follow the same pattern: depending on the clan, I need to retrieve an item, gather resources, or kill people. And this happens over and over again.
One situation remains especially memorable. For one clan, I have to keep following a trail that is shown as a red thread on the map. At some point, I noticed that during the quest, I was guided back to the starting point – during which I felt really silly and thought that the playtime was being artificially stretched.
The game forces you to regularly complete the side quests. Because at certain story points, they simply disappear and are replaced by new ones. This means you can’t just catch up on the quests if you have a little time left at the end of the game to do them.
In one half of the game, we play as a detective. In these passages, the focus is not on fighting, but on investigating. Instead of blood and melee skills, we can suddenly manipulate, revive the dead, and extract answers to certain questions.
In the other half, we play our vampire ancestor. He is equipped with everything typical for a vampire: a dislike for sunlight, bloodlust, and supernatural abilities. Depending on which clan we start with, we have different abilities at the beginning of the game. But don’t worry: it is also possible to learn the abilities of other clans.
I chose the Tremere clan at the beginning because it sounded best to me in terms of abilities. And indeed, I loved one ability until the end, as it allowed me to engage in ranged combat even more. I could shoot blood daggers from a distance that could instantly kill small enemies. This allowed me to fully live out my preferred play style.
Even with movement, I felt like a true vampire. You can take a particularly fast sprint and even float around. It gets most fun when you climb a high-rise building and then leap from roof to roof, gliding over large gaps.
However, this style of movement has its limits. The public must not know about the vampires. Therefore, there is a display at the top of the screen that shows the masquerade. It must not be broken:
With a green display, everything is still fine, and we have only been observed by a few individuals.
With a yellow display, someone has seen us drinking blood, or we have created a bit more attention. The NPCs in the city will become suspicious.
With a red display, we have overdone it, and even the police are hunting us.
If you go a step further, even the “Vampire Council” gets involved and causes a quick end. The system reminded me a bit of GTA and its stars, which is why you always have to be careful not to expose your vampire existence to the public.
This can be annoying at times, as you are forced to only walk through the city in a normal sprint or have to look for the next roof first. Since there is no fast travel, you spend a large part of your time wandering through the city. Fortunately, the map is not too huge.
Conclusion: Vampire and detective fans will love it
The extra development time has done the game good. The story is captivating at every moment and is especially accessible for newcomers to the universe. Those who have been waiting for a successor to part 1 for many years will be satisfied with this.
However, the game has some weaknesses that will likely prevent it from skyrocketing completely. Personally, as a fan of detectives and vampires, I had fun with the game and could overlook its weaknesses.

The streamer Félix “xQc” Lengyel publicly revealed in a stream how much he earned in a single day on Twitch. With that amount, the content creator can afford quite a bit, but these earnings aren’t his only source of income.
How much did xQc earn in a day on Twitch? In a past stream (highlight on YouTube), the streamer xQc showed how much he would earn on a “bad day,” as he puts it, on Twitch. He then demonstrated the 15th of December 2021, on which he earned $45,860, equivalent to €39,200 on Twitch through advertising revenue.
It is important to note: This is a sum before taxes. Nevertheless, it’s still considerable income for a day.
This translates to about 71 PS5 consoles at a price of €550 each, which xQc could afford on that day. The number would be even higher on a “good day.”

xQc reacts to streamer colleague who has disabled donations on Twitch
MoistCr1TiKaL’s main reason for disabling donations: He prefers that people save their money during these tough times instead of gifting it to him.
He also emphasized that none of the top streamers need the gifted money from viewers to continue their profession. Something that xQc also agreed with in his reaction to the video: “I said that [in the past] too!” (Source: YouTube starting at 01:45).
xQc himself likely does not depend on donations or subscriptions from his viewers either.
How much does the streamer xQc earn? The revenue from advertisements on Twitch is not the only source of income for xQc or streamers in general. It is supplemented by sponsorship deals and exclusive contracts with platforms.
Destiny 2 has been around for many years, and those who know Bungie are aware that chaos and bugs have been constant companions. Therefore, we have picked out the most intense moments of the sandbox that you, as a long-time fan, should still know.
What are these moments? These involve overly powerful metas or bugs that have slipped into Destiny 2. They have already been eradicated by Bungie but have led to some of the most absurd moments in the history of Destiny 2.
They were funny and powerful and could dominate the servers of the loot shooter for a time. Most of you should know them as long-time fans. But if you’re just joining us, sit back and see what the Guardians in Destiny 2 have already experienced.

Telesto and its Bug Streak
When the community talks about Telesto, everyone immediately thinks of one thing: bugs, and plenty of them. This exotic fusion rifle is a force of nature when it comes to breaking the game, and not always to the detriment of the players. The weapon was primarily responsible for bugs like these:
Craftening was a topic in itself in Destiny 2, as it allowed players to create absurd weapons with the crafting feature of the Enclave. Automatic rifles firing grenade launcher ammunition, or bows that nock arrows like shotgun shells – truly bizarre combinations.
The weapon forge had good intentions for the Guardians
With them, the sandbox was naturally completely shaken up, including raids. Many players report on Reddit about how they secured a victory against raid bosses thanks to this “trick,” even though they weren’t that good at raids.
Although Bungie is known for immediately patching such disastrous problems, the developers allowed fans to enjoy themselves to the fullest this weekend. For many, it was a memorable moment in their career as Guardians.
6 to 12 Players in Dungeons and Raids
To tackle endgame content, you need a fireteam, and the sizes of the teams are always specified by Bungie. Well, unless there is a bug that can bypass this restriction.
By chance, players discovered a few years ago: If Fireteam 1 wants to join Fireteam 2 and Fireteam 2 is just about to join the activity, both teams spawn in the activity at the same time.
Many Guardians could earn the raid exotic “Divinity” during this phase, as the puzzles and mechanics became no problem due to the high number of allies. Additionally, very few players had any idea about the secret quest, allowing them to simply tag along comfortably.
Definitely a memorable moment in the history of Destiny 2, something that Guardians who participated in it will never forget.
Two Exotics that Turned PvP Upside Down
There were two memorable moments in the PvP of Destiny 2 that will never be forgotten in the Crucible. Bungie even gifted each moment with an emblem to commemorate them. But without two exotics, none of this would have happened: Prometheus Lens and Lord of Wolves.
Emblem for the Lord of WolvesEmblem for Prometheus Lens
Prometheus Lens was released in 2017 with the “Curse of Osiris” expansion, but there was a problem… the weapon was far too powerful in PvP. It could pulverize your enemies in seconds, and many noticed that. Now, here comes the second problem: The weapon was even sold by Xur that weekend after being deemed too powerful.
This means: Every player who could afford the rifle bought it. The result was a Crucible that resembled a laser tag arena. Everywhere smelled of burnt Guardians, but at least the chaos was amusing.
The Lord of Wolves, on the other hand, was fortunate, as its effect “Release the Wolves” no longer required a kill to activate. Instead, fans could manually trigger the effect, which was unfavorable in PvP. The weapon could hit enemies from a great distance and was so powerful that it could tear Guardians in their ults to shreds within seconds. Very powerful and, above all, fun.
Menagerie: Who Gets to the Chest Faster!
The Menagerie is something no one will forget quickly. An exciting and diverse mode in the belly of the Leviathan, were it not for the lousy loot for the long time invested to complete the mode.
At that time, many fans complained, but fortunately, an exploit was found to mitigate the problem. Once you equipped your chalice, you could only open the chest once. But there was a way to activate it multiple times, which only worked because Destiny 2 is so complex.
A cool activity from Calus
The Menagerie was divided into different instances that had to be reloaded every time you entered – including the showdown with the last boss and the room with the chest. To get the chest to spit out more than it should, you would re-trigger the chalice, leave the room with the chest, wait 1-2 seconds, and then return.
The result was an unopened chest that you could then open again. I personally exploited this, as I wanted to get the very rare ship as well as the swords for the individual classes.
But guess what I still didn’t get despite this trick… that’s right, the ship! Outrageous! But at least we had races in the fireteam to see who could get to the chest the fastest. That was fun.
And the last thing many fans of Destiny 1 will surely remember for a long time is the legendary loot cave: staring into a black hole for hours and taking out enemies while chatting with friends about all sorts of things late into the night.
Twitch-streamer Gamerbrother spoke in the podcast “Henke’s Corner” about the German small-sided football leagues Baller, King’s, and Icon League. Especially regarding the Baller League, the manager of VfR Zimbos praises the increase in football quality.
What is the Baller League? Founded in 2024 by Mats Hummels, Lukas Podolski, and German streamers, the indoor football league already has three seasons. Played in a 6 vs. 6 format with two halves of 15 minutes each – twelve teams compete against each other, and they are always led by celebrities or well-known streamers.
The streamer Gamerbrother has been a manager of VfR Zimbos since the league’s launch and emphasizes in the latest episode of the podcast “Henke’s Corner” the significant increase in quality:
Originally, we considered asking a buddy from the local league if he would lace up his boots. We even thought about letting someone from the community play in the wild-card slots.
However, in the third season, there is already such a massive increase in quality that players below the Premier League, according to Gamerbrother, actually have no chance anymore. In addition to the actual players of the clubs, so-called wildcards are also mixed in. There have already been stars like Max Kruse, Kevin Großkreutz, Diego Contento, and Martin Harnik.

Three is two too many
How many leagues of this kind are there in Germany? With the league that started everything, the Baller League, the Icon League, and finally the King’s League, there are now three comparable small-sided tournaments in Germany.
According to Gamerbrother, this is not necessarily an added value: “What is simply a problem in Germany is that you don’t have one league, but three. This creates this classic camp mentality, and I believe that’s exactly what holds back success a bit,” says the team manager.
In general, the streamer wishes for less “beef” between the leagues and their communities. However, there is also a significant opportunity to be recognized.
How does Gamerbrother want to increase the hype? The ongoing competition, especially between the Baller and Icon League, is according to Gamerbrother the perfect breeding ground to hold duels and thus draw more attention to the leagues.
Either we do CEO 1 against CEO 2 as a boxing match (in reference to Logan Paul vs. KSI) or we play out a big final between the Icon and Baller League.
Since both leagues started in the same year, according to Gamerbrother, they should have “properly utilized” the hype to turn this community battle into a big event – perhaps this can still be implemented in the future.
With Fellowship, a new co-op game has launched on Steam that aimed to provide dungeons like those in an MMORPG, but without the downsides that the genre entails. However, the launch went quite poorly in typical MMO fashion.
What kind of game is this? Fellowship is a co-op dungeon crawler and refers to itself as a Multiplayer Online Dungeon Adventure (MODA for short). With up to 4 players per group, you can fight bosses and monsters in dungeons just like in an MMORPG.
They function just as one is used to from the genre and also provide loot and experience points with which to improve your character. However, what the MODA skips is the typical leveling phase, as well as daily tasks or prolonged introductions.
The developers’ goal is to let players fight through dungeons without detours and to always provide a challenge through increasing difficulty levels. However, Fellowship does not forgo a typical start like in an MMO.
Here you can watch the trailer for the game:

Release issues despite beta testing
How did the release go? On October 16, 2025, Fellowship started its Early Access on Steam. Currently priced at €22.05 instead of €24.50, you can buy and play the MODA, and there are also cosmetic DLCs available if you want to support the developers.
However, the release went really poorly. Shortly after the launch, the servers were overloaded and players could only stare at the loading screen (via Reddit). For hours, the developers tried to fix the problems, but it was only in the early morning hours, when player load had significantly decreased, that they managed to stabilize the situation.
However, with every hour of waiting, players became more impatient and vented their frustration on various platforms. The developers stated that they needed extensive moderation tools on Discord to keep the angry mob in check.
Also on Steam, many players temporarily rated the MODA negatively and advised against purchasing it. Currently, Fellowship has only a rating of “Mixed” with 64% positive reviews. However, this is not the first time that such issues have arisen. This topic had already come up in the beta.
He also explained that the beta test was meant precisely for that, to test the servers and the infrastructure in general before the release begins. However, despite their experiences from the test, the developers could not prevent the way the release went.
While on Reddit newer posts speak of good gameplay after the long wait, many players are disappointed with the situation after the release.
