30-year-old streamer Sweet Anita feels like she is being exploited sexually by others. She cannot prevent it and says she does not even know why she is still on Twitch.
This bothers Sweet Anita now: The streamer is upset that viewers reduce her to her sexuality and spread clips on the internet about her that are used as templates for masturbation.
These are out-of-context excerpts from longer streams, where her butt is visible or her breasts are emphasized.
“They sell my body without my consent. Honestly, it annoys me, I just don’t want to be here anymore. I put my all into this, I invest heart, blood, time, and soul into what I do. […] And all they do is jerk off to it. I don’t know why I’m still here.”
Sweet Anita
“7 seconds of my butt get 500,000 views”
These are the clips she means: It’s about so-called “Creep Clips” or “Thicc Clips”. She shows, for example, how a streamer simply gets up or bends over, showing off her curves.
Sweet Anita says she gets up from her chair to go to the bathroom. And someone makes a clip “Sweet Anita completely naked” and uploads it to YouTube. This creates a completely false image of her.
She says:
A 10-minute video, where she spends weeks or months sharing her thoughts, gets a few thousand views.
A 7-second clip of her butt reaches half a million views in a day.
It is important to understand that Sweet Anita neither creates, nor uploads or distributes these “Creep Clips”, but other content creators do this and make money with her body.
Sweet Anita believes: “There are already so many butts on the internet”; hers is not needed. This leads to further problems, as viewers come into her channel with clear expectations that she does not want to fulfill.

Is it the same for others? Yes, this is actually a problem on Twitch. Unlike the streamers who choose to showcase their bodies, such as in “Hot Tub Streams”, there are also streamers like Sweet Anita or Pokimane who consciously refrain from it.
However, such “Thicc Videos” circulate from those, in which they are clearly sexualized.
Sweet Anita says: She can do nothing about it. Even if she disables the clip function on Twitch, people would simply download the full videos and make YouTube videos from them, earning money on YouTube with them.
In 2019, there was a controversy when users in her Twitch chat tried to repeatedly entice her to say racist slurs. Other Twitch streamers subsequently called for her Twitch ban. But black streamers supported her, stating she is in no way a racist. And Twitch ultimately decided: Streamers with Tourette are welcome on the streaming platform.
Sweet Anita is seen as a streamer who helps break down prejudices against those with Tourette syndrome. Someone who helps overcome barriers. But she seems to be struggling with the barrier of how Twitch treats women:
On May 6th, the new MMORPG Elyon starts its first English beta test. We are giving away 1,000 keys for beta access, and you can secure one immediately if you are quick.
What is Elyon? The MMORPG has undergone many changes since its announcement as Ascent: Infinite Realm. The combat system has been almost completely reworked, removing tab-targeting and becoming more action-oriented. The classes and skills have also been extensively revamped to provide more depth for builds.
In the MMORPG, the two major factions, Vulpin and Ontari, fight for control of the mysterious portal Elyon, which is said to lead them to paradise. You will hack your way through raids, dungeons, and especially the large “Realm vs. Realm” battles, which are expected to be one of the highlights of Elyon.
What to expect in the beta: During the beta test, you will be able to try out the various functions and features of the game. This includes the 5 different classes of the MMORPG and their skill trees. They are:
Warlord
Assassin
Mystic
Gunner
Elemental
There is no gender lock. Each skill of the classes has 4 different customization options that often significantly alter the effect of the skill. Fans of builds and skill setups will certainly find plenty to work with. A socket system provides further build variety.
Additionally, you will explore the world of Elyon, complete dungeons and quests, solve puzzles, and participate in the “Realm vs. Realm” battles where up to 300 players can smash each other’s heads.
The progress from the beta will not carry over to the finished game but will reset. An overview of the class gameplay can be found in the trailer:

The Roze skin is considered controversial in Call of Duty: Warzone. It is so dark that some players label it as Pay2Win. After a nerf, things were supposed to get better, but there are still negative voices.
This is the Roze skin: This skin was available a few seasons ago in the paid Battle Pass and is completely black. This allows players with this skin to hide well in dark corners and surprise opponents who usually see them only at the last second, if at all. This has caused discontent for a while, so the skin has been labeled Pay2Win.
For months, there has been criticism of this skin, leading the developers to release a nerf for the skin. The outfit is supposed to be more recognizable and no longer blend in as much with the environment. The problem is that even after the nerf, the skin is still very hard to see and many players felt the nerf wasn’t strong enough.
Roze skin still too dark
Here you can see the difference: YouTuber “TheXclusiveAce” took a closer look at the skin before and after the patch. We embed the video here:

The YouTuber found that the skin remains almost invisible in many places. Only when getting very close can one recognize the player.
However, there are some areas where the skin is now easier to recognize. This mainly depends on the angle of the light. Thus, the skin appears somewhat brighter in some places and can be recognized faster.
The YouTuber notes that visually nothing has changed about the skin. There are no brighter spots on the body that make the skin stand out. It is much more the reflection in the light that has changed. So at least sometimes the skin stands out a bit more.
Is this nerf sufficient? This is now being discussed. There is hardly any other skin in CoD Warzone that is as dark as the Roze skin. Players would have wished that the skin at least gets some brighter spots somewhere on the body. Other operators, for example, can be recognized by their faces, which are at least only partially camouflaged.
YouTube user “CringeXD” writes under TheXclusiveAce’s video about the nerf (via YouTube): “The change to Roze is just like removing a person from ‘Where’s Waldo?'” Generally, many players do not understand why the entire map has been brightened in some places instead of simply adjusting the Roze skin.
If you’re interested in more about CoD Warzonethis might also interest you:
What’s next? This remains to be seen. The renewed criticism of the Roze skin is loud, so the developers are certainly aware of it. Now the question remains whether they deliberately left the skin this dark or if the nerf was simply too weak. This should become clear in the coming weeks.
Until then, you should avoid dark corners and always look carefully to see if there is still a skin hiding in a shadow. More nerfs are at least underway elsewhere. You can read more about it here:
With CryoFall, a new survival title celebrates its release on Steam and hardly anyone has it on their radar. That’s a pity, because the approach is quite good – at least that’s what MeinMMO author Benedict Grothaus thinks. However, one must also be willing to warm up to CryoFall.
Since April 2019, CryoFall has been playable in Early Access on Steam. Since then, it has been in constant development and the devs are continuously working on new content, features, and systems. Now, on April 29, 2021, CryoFall is celebrating its official release.
The survival game comes from the studio AtomicTorch and is published by the German story specialist Daedalic from Hamburg. Daedalic is actually known for excellent point-and-click adventures like Edna 's Escape, The Whispered World, and the Deponia series.
With this, the Hamburg team mainly caters to a niche of loyal fans, and CryoFall is more of a niche game. The approach is unique and tries to find a route between casual and hardcore, which proves to be a difficult mix.
This mix, however, makes the charm of the survival MMO. As part of Find Your Next Game, we want to introduce you to CryoFall in more detail.
Isometric Survival with Mixed Reviews
What is CryoFall? In CryoFall, you play as a survivor of a catastrophe in the distant future. You land on a foreign planet virtually naked and are to rebuild civilization.
You play on official or private servers with up to 200 players either in PvE, completely without contact with other players, or in PvP as a competition for survival. In addition to simply surviving, CryoFall places a central focus on building your own house and even industry, similar to Factorio.
CryoFall comes with an isometric 2D perspective (“shaded from above”) and offers a timeless comic-style graphics. Gameplay and graphics remind a bit of a middle ground between RimWorld or Stardew Valley and Conan Exiles or ARK.

The visuals and the various building systems such as agriculture and trade primarily remind of Stardew Valley. However, CryoFall combines these with hardcore survival elements that are missing in Stardew Valley.
In addition, the survival game offers high modifiability and its own map editor. CryoFall is 100% open source, allowing anyone to create and share their mods freely.
How is CryoFall received? The reviews on Steam are “mixed” to “mostly positive.” Overall, the game has received 79% positive ratings across all reviews. In the last 30 days, it has dropped to only 69% (as of April 29, via Steam).
The player base is relatively small. In March 2021, an average of 177 players played CryoFall, peaking at 385 (via steamcharts). Since 200 players fit on a server, the population is thin.
The Typical Survival Problem: Too Little PvE?
This is criticized: A major criticism of CryoFall has been that PvP has been too much in the foreground. This is something that many survival games are often accused of. When you log out, you remain in the world and “sleep,” which makes it easy for trolls to ambush other players.
In addition, the PvE content is said to have been quite sparse. There was little to explore, and the wildlife and enemies were either non-existent or too aggressive at the beginning, resulting in little atmosphere.
Steam user SirArghAlot even describes the PvE servers as a “demo” and there is criticism of the absence of a solo mode for players who prefer to explore the world alone.
Cool monsters, but previously too little happened with them.
This is what CryoFall does better: We sent the developers some questions in advance, which they answered for us. Among them was the question about the changes CryoFall has received. Since the Early Access release in 2019, many new contents and features have been added, such as:
a electricity system
vehicles
factions
a completely redesigned map with ruins to explore
world events and bosses
fishing
This is primarily intended to enrich the PvE content, which was previously regarded as too thin. According to the developers, there are even several players with over 1000 hours in CryoFall, who apparently find enough to do.
Everything a Survival Game Needs
These are the features of the game: CryoFall particularly plays with the fact that you continuously earn progress. The main core of the game consists of research, crafting, and industry.
You start as a “primitive” player and experience a development up to the technology level of science fiction with exo-suits, outlandish weapons, and cybernetic bio-implants. These features are strongly reminiscent of RimWorld, except that you control a single character here and not an entire colony. In the process, not only do you improve your character, but you also expand your base:
you start with a simple house
later, you provide for yourself through agriculture and thus secure your survival
with industry and production chains, you drive technological progress
sciences such as chemistry, physics, and medicine then turn you into a futuristic superhuman
Additionally, there are the classic survival aspects such as hunger and thirst, which are however expanded by numerous status effects. You must not only pay attention to food and drink, but also to radiation, poison, and injuries. For every status effect, there are also items that can counter them.
In CryoFall, there are plenty of status effects with corresponding countermeasures.
What makes CryoFall special? The unique selling point of the survival game is that it takes elements from both casual games and core games and mixes them into something of its own. CryoFall tries to strike a balance in all aspects:
the graphics are pretty and detailed but kept simple in 2D
enemies are deadly, yet you can easily avoid them
the systems are complex but intuitively easy to learn and build on each other
various status effects weaken you but can be avoided with proper preparation
when you log out, you can still be killed but are protected in your own home
However, this puts CryoFall on a difficult path. For the survival casual player, the systems may be too harsh, while they may seem too easy for the survival pro. Exactly this intertwining of various systems makes it appealing and encourages a deeper engagement with the game.
Who is CryoFall For?
If you have played Stardew Valley or Terraria but find nothing more to do there or are looking for more of a challenge, you should give CryoFall a chance. The MMO aspect differentiates this survival game from Stardew Valley and Terraria, while its operation and interface remain quite similar. However, CryoFall does not provide a story like Stardew Valley.
CryoFall is also suitable if you find hardcore survival games like Rust or Conan Exiles too harsh, but still seek a certain level of difficulty. CryoFall offers a somewhat easier entry and is much more forgiving of mistakes.
Even newcomers will find CryoFall worth a look, especially if you tend to enjoy strategy and management games. Base building and industry in CryoFall remind a bit of Factorio or simulations like RimWorld.
The base building reminds a bit of RimWorld.
However, if you are looking for a chill survival game to relax or the absolute competition with other players, you are in the wrong place with CryoFall.
By the way: The requirements of CryoFall are extremely low. With just 700 MB of required storage, 3 GB of RAM, and a Dual-Core processor at 2.2 GHz, even an old computer with a weak graphics card is sufficient. A resolution of 720p is already adequate.
If you are still unsure, CryoFall even offers a demo. It includes the full game, is free, and you can play for 8 hours. Just use the “Download Demo” button on the CryoFall Steam page.
The developers revealed their plans for the future. For the modifications, the Steam Workshop could be implemented, making it even easier to get mods for CryoFall and customize the game.
A major goal is to improve single-player and co-op content. At the moment, there is no option to play CryoFall completely alone or with a friend without running your own server. The developers want to introduce a way to start a private server directly through the game and play with friends when everything goes well.
When asked if there would be a battle pass, add-ons, or DLCs, they only said: “Everything is possible, but right now we are focusing on expanding the core of the game. There are a few other things we are considering, but we would like to keep that secret until we are sure we can pull it off.
Niche game with hidden gem potential
With its crazy intertwining of casual and hardcore elements, CryoFall definitely appeals to a very specific group of players, and I am still not quite sure who that should actually be.
So far, I have played only a little, but what I have seen I liked. The approach sounds incredibly interesting, and I would really like to explore the world further – if only the mechanics didn’t look so strenuous.
I like to read up on systems, but CryoFall sounds a bit too complex for a relaxed survival game. However, it may well be that understanding comes naturally while playing. The tutorial was definitely good already, and I can recommend everyone at least check out the demo. However, I think you have to be a certain type of gamer to really immerse yourself in CryoFall.
Niche games are not bad at all. Studios that know only a small group of enthusiasts will play their game can tailor it much better for exactly that group. I hope that this is exactly what happens with CryoFall and think that AtomicTorch has the right publisher in Daedalic to help them achieve this goal.

Whether the developers’ plans will work and what the new content will look like remains to be seen. However, it sounds like there is enough for the studio to do to further improve CryoFall. In our list, you will find more survival games worth a look:

Riot Games has forced a fan project for League of Legends to cease operations: Some fans had been working on a LoL Classic for 5 years. However, an employee of Riot threatened the developers in a way that is perceived on the internet as “extortion” and behaved in a cringe-worthy manner.
This is the project in question: The project was called Chronoshift. It is essentially the same idea as private servers for WoW, before WoW Classic existed. Chronoshift was intended to be a privately operated server where you could play LoL as it was 10 years ago.
Back then, LoL had far fewer champions, and the systems were not as refined. It was a different game.
The developers of Chronoshift say:
They had been working on the project for 5 years
Invested thousands of hours
Had never made money from it, covering all expenses themselves. They had declined offers of thousands of dollars from people who really wanted to join the server.
The fans apparently hoped to operate in a gray area and that Riot Games would let them be. They thought their work harmed nobody. However, that hope was dashed.
Fans say: Riot extorted them to hand over LoL Classic
This is the controversy: 5 days ago, the developers of the project turned to the public on reddit (via reddit). An employee of Riot Games named Zed supposedly invited them to a conversation on Discord and pressured them to abandon the project.
They posted a long chat log with statements from “Zed,” who behaved like a sort of “mafia extortionist” and made particularly bold statements to get the fans to end the project.

A long chat log with Zed shows a “Riot employee” on a power trip.
Zed immediately threatened with a lawsuit, but that is “long and complicated”; hence he wanted to resolve the problem this way to “spare everyone the trouble.”
If the fans complied with his demands, then “everyone could go home without feeling bad about it.”
The demands from Riot were:
Hand over the website to us
Hand over the complete source code
Provide us with all important information
This was the offer. If the creators of Chronoshift complied, they wouldn’t be sued. If they refused, Riot would file a lawsuit.
Zed explained: He works for the security team. He finds things and people. They could resolve this today to settle the matter or take it to court. It ultimately didn’t matter to him.
He ended the conversation with the words: “I wish I could say it was a pleasure.”
Fans consider alleged Riot employee a fraud and charlatan
This is what was discussed: On reddit, people believed “Zed” was a fraud posing as a Riot employee, but was just a troll.
It was hard to imagine that a guy with such a deliberately cool persona truly worked for Riot. Clearly, this was a guy on a power trip. No one speaks like this in a real professional environment if they have any self-respect.
Riot sends a cease and desist, kills the fan project
This is now the turning point: Zed actually works for Riot Games. The developers of PC Gamer explained this. Riot Games states they had already asked the developers in 2020 to read the terms and cease work on the project.
They have now sent a cease and desist letter to the developers of Chronoshift.
Riot Games admits that the conversation with “Zed” did indeed take place, but says they are “disappointed with the tone of the conversation.”
They will now address it internally. They often first approach people in good faith before going to court, but in this case, they opted for the official route.
The team has ceased work on the project, but expresses being “incredibly disappointed.”
Is LoL going to make a LoL Classic now? No, it doesn’t look like it. According to Ghostcrawler, they theoretically could do it. However, it would be a mountain of work that probably isn’t worth it. They prefer to invest the technologists’ work into the current game.
They have nothing against the idea of an “older version of LoL” and it would certainly be fun for a short time, but they would quickly find that there were reasons to release Season 2, 3, and 4 after Season 1 and it is quite possible that it simply isn’t worth investing much developer work into the project.”
Sounds quite similar to what Blizzard said for years about “WoW Classic”:
If you want to buy a graphics card like the GeForce RTX 3080 or RTX 3060, you are having trouble getting one. Because the cards are either sold out or very expensive. Nvidia now wants to make mining unattractive so that gamers can also buy a graphics card.
Anyone looking to buy a graphics card must currently pay very high prices. This has various reasons:
Many graphics cards are bought up by resellers and resold at high prices. Also, many retailers are now setting prices significantly above the recommended retail price.
A second reason is the current attractiveness of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Nvidia had developed a mining lock for the RTX 3060, but this mining lock on the RTX 3060 was quickly hacked.
Now there are rumors and information that Nvidia is working on a new version of its mining lock. For this, Nvidia is developing a new chip that is intended to be unattractive for miners.
What is the goal? Nvidia wants to make future RTX 3000 graphics cards useless for miners. Because Nvidia wants to revise the graphics chip. Gamers looking for a graphics card should therefore have a significantly better chance in the long term of getting a new GPU for their gaming PC.
Nvidia is probably also hoping that miners will instead prefer the mining graphics cards that Nvidia currently markets under the abbreviation “CMP”. Behind the update is therefore also financial calculation.
What are cryptocurrencies? These are digital currencies that are traded online. They are anonymous and usually decentralized. The downside is that the currency can fluctuate extremely in value and that mining requires a lot of energy. Currently, there are more than 4,500 different currencies, but the most important ones are Bitcoin and Ether (via wikipedia.de).
Nvidia revises old mining lock for newly produced graphics cards
What kind of lock was that? Nvidia wanted it to be not worth it for miners to buy RTX 3060 graphics cards in the future. Nvidia had configured the software for the graphics cards so that it should recognize certain mining algorithms. Once the software recognized that people wanted to mine cryptocurrencies, it would halve the hashrate. Mining was hardly worth it anymore.
What is a “hash rate”? Simply put, the hash rate indicates how quickly the many complex calculations for unlocking a new block are performed. The higher the hash rate, the faster mining can take place.
That’s why the old lock didn’t work: The old mining lock on the RTX 3060 could be bypassed with some simple tricks that required little technical skill.
At the latest when Nvidia released a software update for the graphics cards, where the mining lock was disabled, this lock no longer mattered (via GameStar.de).
This is what Nvidia wants to do now: According to unofficial sources found by Videocardz, Nvidia is said to have informed its board partners that it wants to change its graphics chips (via Videocardz.com). The new chips are adjusted so that they only work with graphics card drivers that limit cryptocurrency mining.
This new graphics chip is to be installed in all future RTX 3000 graphics cards. However, this will not be marked as a new chip.
Are all graphics cards affected? According to Videocardz, there should at least be one exception that will not receive a mining lock. And that exception is the GeForce RTX 3090.
The RTX 3090 offers significantly worse efficiency than other graphics cards like the RTX 3060 or the RTX 3060 Ti, even though the hash rate is better.
Additionally, the RTX 3090 costs at least $1,499. This makes it unattractive for many miners.
Availability of graphics cards is currently quite poor
This is what it looks like currently: Graphics cards like the RTX 3080 are currently hardly available or only at very high prices. The GeForce RTX 3080 was already sold out within moments at the time of launch and ended up fetching high sums on Ebay. Other people, like a user are installing a whole half dozen RTX 3000 graphics cards in a BMW and are not necessarily making themselves popular.
Due to the poor availability, especially older GPUs are in such demand that you can even make a profit with old graphics cards. This is partly because many are turning to gaming to spend time with friends or relatives due to the strict Corona restrictions. This suddenly makes older hardware important again.
Our readers at MeinMMO have told us that they are willing to spend a lot of money on a graphics card. This is also because graphics cards are currently hardly available at normal prices.

The popular tier sets in World of Warcraft (WoW) were removed with the Battle for Azeroth expansion. Now players are waiting for their return – but that might take some time, as Blizzard revealed.
Why were the tier sets removed? The removal of the tier sets in Battle for Azeroth didn’t sit well with every WoW fan. Blizzard made this decision for design reasons, as the developers did not want to see “the thirtieth iteration of a mage-specific set.”
Tier sets also had the disadvantage of significantly restricting players in their equipment choices. Some items forced players to decide whether to use the items based solely on their raw stats or as a combined bonus in the set. Should an old set be replaced directly, or should several parts of the new set be collected first?
Nonetheless, players miss the ability to collect these tier sets and the designs of the individual classes. With Shadowlands, sets were actually supposed to return. Players expected this to happen at the latest with Patch 9.1 – but they are still missing in that set. Now there’s new information from the director.
You still have to wait a little longer for the return of tier sets in WoW
Will the tier sets return? In an interview with WoW expert and streamer Preachlfw, Game Director Ion Hazzikostas said that the sets will definitely return (via Twitch; at 1 hour, 20 minutes, 40 seconds). However, WoW fans will need to be patient. Ion Hazzikostas explained that the return of the sets is expected only after the upcoming Update 9.1 “Sanctum of Domination.”

With Update 9.2, 12 different armor sets are supposed to come into the game, each with interesting set bonuses for every class. However, where you will get them and what exactly they will do is still open.
How are players reacting to this announcement? Even though some WoW fans hoped that tier sets would return with Update 9.1, the excitement is still high.
FishOnTheFloor says (via wowhead): “At least they are coming back and even have cool bonuses. I’m really looking forward to seeing what exactly they bring.”
Skilful writes (via wowhead): “Patch 9.2 is going to be the best!”
Sepulchre778 is very excited (via wowhead): “Yes! I can’t wait!”
veeco is somewhat frustrated (via wowhead): “That’s typical. First, they take a feature out of the game that has been around for 12 years. Fans get angry. And then they bring it back and are celebrated as good developers.”
What do you think about the return of tier sets in WoW? Are you excited or do you find the sets unnecessary? Did you hope they would return sooner? Let us know in the comments.
The new Snap event in Pokémon GO brings new, current raid bosses to the arenas of Pokémon GO. We show you who you will encounter at levels 1, 3, 5 and in Mega Raids and which counters you should have ready.
What’s going on in Pokémon GO? On April 29, the “New Snap” event started. Due to the release of New Pokémon Snap on the Nintendo Switch, it is also being celebrated in Pokémon GO. This includes different spawns in the wild, shiny Farbregal and also altered raid Pokémon.
Here we show you the current raid bosses in Pokémon GO.
Current Raid Bosses in Pokémon GO (from April 29)
What you need to know: We list the bosses of the various difficulty levels one after the other. Names marked with a star (*) indicate that you can encounter these Pokémon as shiny as well.
Tier 1: At the first level of the raids, you can defeat the Pokémon quite easily, even if you don’t have the ideal counters.
Tier 3:
Against Venusaur, Fire-type Pokémon such as Flampivian, Moltres or Blaziken are suitable.
Against Vaporeon, Electric-type Pokémon like Raikou or Zapdos are suitable. Grass-type Pokémon like Venusaur are also effective.
Against Meganium, you can use Fire-type Pokémon like Charizard, Entei or Reshiram (in addition to the counters for Venusaur).
Against Tyranitar, Fighting-type Pokémon like Lucario, Machamp or Machoke are effective.
Against Sharkpedo, use Electric-type Pokémon like Electivire or Raikou in the raid. But also fighters like Gallade and Machamp hit hard.
Against Hippowdon, Water and Ice are effective. Use attackers like Mega-Blastoise, Shadow-Mamoswine or Mega-Gyarados.
Tier 5: In the level 5 raids, legendary Pokémon await you, which have been available individually for weeks. We have special guides for Landorus, Thundurus, and Tornadus that provide you with the most important information such as counters.
Mega Raids: The Mega Raids reward you with Pokémon that you can activate the Mega Evolution for.
In the battle against Mega-Venusaur, other Mega Pokémon such as Mega-Charizard X and Y are suitable. But also Shadow-Mewtwo, the regular Mewtwo, and Shadow-Moltres are very potent attackers in battle.
In the raid against Mega-Lapras, you are well served with Mega-Pokémon such as Mega-Pidgeot, Mega-Lapras, and Mega-Charizard Y. Also helpful are Shadow-Mewtwo, Mewtwo, Shadow-Moltres, Shadow-Machamp, or Shadow-Gladevoir.
When facing Mega-Blaziken, attackers like Mega-Charizard X and Y as well as Mega-Houndoom are strong options. As Shadow attackers, you are well served with Shadow-Moltres, Shadow-Charizard, and Shadow-Entei.
You can only take advantage of the Snap event for a few days. It ends already on Sunday evening at 8:00 PM local time. But until then, there are some bonuses that ensure a lot of fun. Especially shiny hunters should get a move on, as you can now catch Shiny Farbregal.
The gaming company Blizzard is currently in the spotlight regarding its diversity. After women complained about their treatment in Hearthstone, Blizzard is now facing criticism for a skin in Overwatch : Blizzard has now given the Asian character Mei cornrows. Some black women find this offensive: They have missed having a black female character in Overwatch for 5 years.
What’s going on at Blizzard? It’s a strange transformation that Blizzard is undergoing:
With Overwatch in 2016, Blizzard wanted to make a statement for “more diversity” and move away from the fact that the hero figures in their games are predominantly muscular men with broad shoulders or sexy women in battle bikinis: They aimed to develop a game with a diverse cast of heroes.
However, in recent months, criticism of Blizzard has been accumulating, accusing them of disadvantaging and belittling groups of people with their decisions. Blizzard has been sharply criticized for inviting only 2 women and 18 men to a tournament with 20 grandmasters in Hearthstone.
This time, the criticism is focused on a skin for the hero Mei in Overwatch.
This is the problem skin: The legendary skin “MM-Mei” depicts the frost heroine Mei as a “Mixed Martial Arts” fighter. Apparently, this skin is modeled after the UFC fighter Zhang Weili, who also wears her hair in cornrows.
Cornrows are a braided hairstyle originating from Africa. Some famous black basketball players wore cornrows in the 2000s, such as Allen Iverson, Rasheed Wallace, or Latrell Spreewell. The hairstyle is popular among female mixed martial arts fighters because long hair does not obstruct vision during fights.
Blizzard commented on the skin: “Since the May Melee is the first Overwatch tournament of the year, we wanted to design a skin that represents the pinnacle of competition. We feel that combat sports like boxing or mixed martial arts capture that tone very well and therefore started creating this legendary skin.”
Blizzard chose Mei because many fans amused themselves with the wordplay “May Mei” in 2020. Therefore, it was clear that Mei should be the hero for the “Mixed Martial” Arts skin.
Journalist Gita Jackson calls it a “PR blunder” to have a black hairstyle for a black heroine in Overwatch.
Black hairstyle in Overwatch, but no black heroine
What’s the problem? The problem that Twitter users have with the skin is:
While there are all kinds of characters in Overwatch, there is no black woman. Since the development of Overwatch 1 is practically finished, there will also be no black woman – Sojourn is only coming for Overwatch 2.
However, the new skin features a hairstyle that many directly associate with black women. This, it is said, rubs “salt in the wound” for Blizzard.
Users on Twitter, especially black women, criticize Blizzard for the skin. Many note that Blizzard clearly lacks black developers and their perspective; otherwise, they would have noticed how inappropriate this is.
The skin is perceived as a “PR blunder.”
The Twitter account “Black Girl Gamers” pointed out that Blizzard was already criticized in 2018 for having no black women in the ensemble of 29 heroes in Overwatch. They called it “lazy and misogynistic” back then.

Do some see it differently? Yes, others say: The hairstyle is simply common among MMA fighters and thus appropriate for the skin.
They point specifically to UFC fighter Zhang Weili, who wears cornrows as a “real-life example” that the skin is not culturally offensive.
Some comment under the skin: “This is the reason why Jeff Kaplan left” or “Jeff saw this and submitted his resignation.”
The example of skins for Mei clearly shows how the discussion in gaming has shifted. Five years ago, in the release year of Overwatch, there was also a discussion about a skin for Mei. This feels like a relic from older, innocent days:
The first update of the Call of Duty: Warzone after the season start is here. The developers are fixing some nasty bugs and already announcing the next big weapon balancing. MeinMMO shows you the details.
What is this update? On Wednesday evening (April 28), Call of Duty: Warzone released a new update. With the patch, the developers are fixing some annoying bugs and announcing nerfs for strong weapons after the season start. The key points:
Additionally, there were a few other fixes for small bugs that had crept into the game. MeinMMO shows you the complete patch notes in German.
CoD Warzone: Update 28.04. fixes the map and the eagle event
Do I need to download anything for the update? The patch came in the background and does not have its own version number. You only need to download a small amount or your game will do it automatically upon starting.
What do the patch notes say? The highlights are definitely the fix of the current live event “Eagle Hunt” and the map repairs. But there are further adjustments:
Progress for the “Eagle Hunt” event should now be counted correctly
Tasks of the Eagle event no longer spawn outside the map
Various locations on the map Verdansk ’84 repaired where players fell under the map
Removed a bug that kept showing the gas mask overlay even though the mask was used
Epic M82 blueprint was displayed with thermal scope
MP5 blueprint “Barbed Wire” from CoD MW is no longer box loot
Reload audio of the Shadowhunter crossbow restored
Fixed issues with the plane in the battle royale practice mode
Visual background bug of the explosion in the north fixed
The developers reacted relatively quickly to issues with the new map Verdansk ’84. Players were glitching under the map and could easily eliminate fair players.
At the end of the patch notes, the CoD creators provided a small preview of upcoming changes. Since the start of Season 3, the weapon meta has been broader and more open than ever – but it’s still not enough for the developers.
Warzone is announcing nerfs for three weapons that they currently consider a bit too strong:
Furthermore, the developers mention that there will be “adjustments to the ADS fire rate of “Cold War” attachments”. Currently, the weapons from Cold War are considered more mobile and faster in battle royale. The firearms from Modern Warfare cannot keep up in some cases. Apparently, changes are planned to tweak the aim-down-sight speed of some attachments.
Adjustments to the sights themselves might be possible here. Currently, the value reductions of most Cold War sights are minimal to hardly noticeable. In contrast, the sights from Modern Warfare all come with significant drawbacks in sight speed.
When the nerfs will come is left open by the patch notes. However, it is possible that an implementation could occur with the regular playlist update today, Thursday (April 29). Because at least they have apparently been working on the AMAX nerf for a while. There was already a note about the weapon in the patch notes for Season 3: “No king reigns forever”.

In Pokémon GO the big Snap Event around Shiny Farbedeagle has started today. We will show you the new Field Research, the Timed Research, and special spawns here.
How long does the event last? Since today, April 29th at 10:00 AM, the big Snap Event is running. You can benefit from the bonuses until May 2nd at 8:00 PM local time. So the event does not last too long.
Nevertheless, there are numerous bonuses that you can snag. To make sure you don’t miss anything, we provide you with an overview here.
Spawns, Quests, and Research for the Snap Event
These are the new quests: A total of 4 different tasks await you, all of which give you the chance to obtain several Pokémon:
Use 5 golden Razz Berries while catching Pokémon

This is how you take snapshots in the wild: Click on any Pokémon in the wild. Do not catch it, but switch to the camera. You then just need to take a photo and the quest is complete. In doing so, you also have the chance to encounter a Farbedeagle, which appears thanks to the snapshot.
These are the spawns: Numerous different monsters appear in the wild. For Shiny hunters, interesting ones are Loturzel, Lampi, Sandan, Griffel, and Knacklion. If you are still missing these Shinys, you should take your chance during the event.
The new Shiny Farbedeagle, by the way, does not appear in the wild. You can only obtain it through snapshots. Overall, Farbedeagle appears 15 times per day through a snapshot. You have several opportunities for the new Shiny.
On the right, you see the Shiny form of Farbedeagle.

The early access version of the multiplayer shooter Scavengers has launched. We will tell you how to participate in the battles and obtain a Steam key.
What is Scavengers? The free-to-play shooter Scavengers combines survival with PvP elements. You are a scavenger searching for data on a frozen Earth that is vital for the survival of humanity. To do this, you are repeatedly shot from an orbital bunker down to Earth for missions.
In the match with 60 players, you are in teams of 3 – internal tests even allowed for 9,000 players. You need to find data points and reach a dropship with the collected data. You will face not only wild beasts but also the other teams. Additionally, the weather will challenge you with severe storms. It is important to seek shelter during such a storm, as otherwise you receive a nasty debuff and slowly lose max HP, which cannot be healed.
It is also important to equip yourself well with weapons beforehand, and you can improve your character over time. The trailer explains what you can expect during the early access phase:

You need to watch one of the live streams of Scavengers on Twitch that has Twitch Drops activated. You can see which streams those are on the game’s Twitch page (via Twitch).
Will you be getting a Steam key for Scavengers via Twitch drop? Or are you perhaps already involved and can share your experiences with the shooter? Let us know in the comments.

The Twitch streamer Felix “xQc” Lengyel announces his very own marathon stream. The streamer wants to be live for 60 days straight and break records.
This was announced: In one of his recent streams, xQc specifically talked about a marathon stream. It is supposed to last a full 60 days and be broadcasted over several computers. There is no specific date yet, as the streamer wants to prepare for it first.
Here xQc talks about it: We embed the Twitch clip here, in which xQc talks about the so-called Subathon. He says: “I will get two or 3 whole computers so that I can hold the Subathon throughout the whole house. Yes, it is supposed to last 60 days.” You can find the clip here:

This is how Ludwig’s Subathon went: The streamer Ludwig set a completely new trend and challenged his viewers. They become subscribers, and in return, the streamer stays live longer. The project became so big that Ludwig banned particularly large sub-gifters and ultimately even set a subscriber record. Ludwig had 283,000 subscribers after this time.
The stream caused a stir worldwide, and thousands of new viewers followed Ludwig’s stream. In the end, the streamer earned over 1.3 million dollars through the numerous subs. However, he does not want to repeat such a project.
This is how it could go for xQc: Compared to Ludwig, xQc is a significantly larger streamer. He is currently in first place on Twitch when it comes to the most viewed channels. This inherently brings significantly more fans to the screens. With such an event, xQc could become even bigger and break records. Ludwig’s subscriber record could well be broken with a similar success.
However, it must also be mentioned that this event is no longer quite new, and the surprise that there was with Ludwig is gone. In the end, it remains to be seen whether xQc will actually last the full 60 days or if he has to end it earlier. It also remains open whether the stream will find as much favor as it did with Ludwig.

What’s else happening in the Twitch world? Recently, there was stress between Twitch and a streamer. He sued in court over a ban and won, but Twitch remains tough. You can learn the whole story behind it here:
In LoL Auto Chess Teamfight Tactics released on April 28 the new Set 5 named “Reckoning”. We have compiled an overview for you of the new champs and current cheat sheets.

The new TOTW 31 in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team is now available. Here you can see the best cards in the Team of the Week.
When is TOTW 31 coming? The new Team of the Week 31 is now available. It was released on April 28, 2021, at 19:00 and will remain available in FUT 21 for one week.
If you still want a player from the current TOTW 31, you will have to check the transfer market or try your luck with FUT packs.
The complete TOTW 31 – with Griezmann
This is the TOTW 31: The new Team of the Week offers cards with high ratings like Griezmann (90), Dubravka (86), and Kimpembe (87), but surprisingly, top strikers like Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi, who shone in the last two matchdays of real football, are missing.
However, FUT players with slightly cheaper teams might discover one or two strong cards in the TOTW for their team.
TOTW 31 starting eleven:
GK: Dubravka (86)
CB: Kimpembe (87)
LB: Alex Sandro (86)
CB: Niakhaté (84)
CM: De Paul (86)
CAM: Klaaasen (84)
CM: Claude-Maurice (84)
ST: Griezmann (90)
LW: Oscar (85)
RW: Malinovskyi (84)
ST: Yilmaz (84)
TOTW 31 bench:
GK: Bravo (81)
CB: Evans (83)
CM: Hector (81)
RM: Tsygankov (83)
ST: Payet (84)
ST: Wood (82)
ST: Embolo (82)
CAM: Evander (80)
LM: Puado (79)
ST: Armstrong (79)
RW: Santos (78)
ST: Grigg (75)
The most exciting 3 cards in TOTW 31
We take a look at the most interesting players of the new Team of the Week, which are particularly suitable for budget teams.
The Inform card of Oscar (85) makes a really good impression. It receives a position change to the left wing and has strong stats in almost all areas. It shouldn’t be too expensive, as the Chinese league is a bit harder to link.
Moussa Niakhaté has earned a strong center-back card, which can particularly impress with pace (85) as well as defensive (86) and physical stats (87). Thanks to the TOTS event, the card should not become too expensive.
Alexis Claude-Maurice may look a bit inconspicuous at first glance, but the extreme speed (97) and outstanding dribbling stats (89) make the card a dangerous weapon in midfield.
