In Pokémon GO starts this Sunday, April 11th, with the Community Day featuring Serpifeu. We will show you all the bonuses and tell you how to take advantage of it.
What is a Community Day? This event takes place once a month in Pokémon GO. For a whole 6 hours, a special Pokémon is in the spotlight and you can encounter it more frequently as a Shiny. Additionally, there’s a bonus that makes the event even more worthwhile.
In April, it’s all about Serpifeu. The Grass starter was already available as a Shiny, but now it gets another big event.
Community Day in April 2021 – Start time and bonuses
What? The Community Day with Serpifeu When? On Sunday, April 11, 2021, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM local time. Pokémon of the Day: Serpifeu will appear more frequently in the wild Exclusive moves: Flora-Statue Bonus: Triple Stardust for catching Pokémon Bonus: Duration of incense increased to three hours Bonus: You can evolve Efoserp up to 2 hours after the event to allow Serpiroyal to learn the move Flora-Statue.
You will again have a full 6 hours to take advantage of the event. Since the beginning of the Corona pandemic, there has been this extended Community Day so you can play comfortably from home.
What’s in the in-game shop: For the Community Day, you will find some offers in the in-game shop. These include:
For one Euro, there’s a special research challenge centered around Serpifeu
There’s a Community Day box for 1280 PokéCoins containing 50 Ultra Balls, 4 Lure Modules, and a Premium Raid Pass.
Prepare these items: To play freely during the Community Day, you should stock up on a good supply of balls. We recommend at least 350 balls so you can catch for a while unbothered – even without a PokéStop.
Additionally, you should start with a sorted Pokémon box. If you have little space in your inventory, then constantly sorting will hinder you while playing. Make room for at least 150-200 Pokémon.
These items are worth it during the event: There is triple Stardust for caught Pokémon, so you should definitely use a Star Piece as well. This gives you even 4.5 times the Stardust per Pokémon. A Star Piece lasts for 30 minutes, so you’ll need 12 of these items if you want to play the full 6 hours.
Otherwise, incense is worth it. It lasts a full 3 hours, so you only need 2 of these items to get the full advantage of the event. With incense, you can effectively play from home and do not have to wait for spawns at your doorstep.
Can you also play from home? Due to numerous Corona bonuses and the aforementioned incense, playing from home is very feasible. Just activate your incense and lure a Pokémon every minute. If you play for the full 6 hours, you will catch at least 360 Pokémon.
How worthwhile is the Community Day? The evolution of Serpifeu, Serpiroyal, is one of the weaker starter Pokémon in the game. Even with the move Flora-Statue, it will not be a top attacker in raids. So if you are looking for strong attackers, you can skip the Community Day.
However, Serpifeu also appears more frequently in its shiny form, and if you don’t have enough Shinies yet, you should at least play a little. Additionally, the triple Stardust is always worth it. Stardust is the most important resource in the game, so you can never have enough. When you play, you should definitely take advantage of the Stardust bonus.
This is the story of Serpifeu: The starter Pokémon is considered loyal and well-trained in the Pokémon world. Visually, it resembles a snake, although it has legs and arms. Only in its final evolution Serpiroyal does the snake become clearly recognizable.
Shiny Serpifeu, Efoserp and Serpiroyal
This is what Shinies look like: The Shiny form of Serpifeu is slightly darker than the normal Serpifeu. This color is consistent throughout the evolution line:
How likely is a Shiny? During the Community Day, the chance of a Shiny is about 1 in 25. This is significantly increased, as normal Shinies have a rate of 1 in 450 in the wild. So if you play just a little during the Community Day, you should have good chances for the shiny version.
Are you looking forward to the Community Day or will you take it a bit easier this time? Let us know in the comments!
Lucy tells you to look for Monica for her, who has run away with a Changed. She sends you to the ruins zone.
You need to go here for the next step.
Where can I find Monica? Talk to Jakub to travel to the ruins zone. If the area has not been unlocked yet, you need to complete more story missions first. But that should generally be done by this point.
In the ruins zone, you need to enter the “Remote Farm” area:
enter the tunnel as soon as you arrive in the ruins zone
follow the path to the right through the large metal door to the fresh water sources
clear the path to the next checkpoint
raise your flag and climb the rope up to the right
At the farm, you will find a building that you need to enter. Inside, you will find Monica, who sends you back to Lucy. Return to the lady in Trench Town and you will receive the key to the Outriders’ bunker in the quarry.
Reach the quarry and continue the quest
This is how you reach the quarry: If you play through the quest for the first time, you will not be able to travel to the quarry at this point. Continue with story quests until Jakub brings you to the quarry anyway.
Talk to your driver to begin the journey and take the path directly to your right, up the hill, towards the nesting area. Follow the area to the end, and you will reach the bunker.
If you are further along in the quest and need to go back to the quarry, but can’t, read in the next section further. There we explain how to finish the quest.
If you miss this option with Jakub, just keep playing until it becomes available again. You won’t miss anything.
What happens next? In the bunker, you will find clues about the whereabouts of other Outriders. This time, you will need to go to the forest. However, you can only do this after you have progressed far enough in the story.
Collect the lithium for Dr. Zahedi and head to the forest as soon as you can. To do this, talk to Jakub.
Finish the quest – Cross the forest and return to the quarry
This is how you get back to the quarry: Once you arrive in the forest, your truck breaks down, and you are stuck there for now. However, you can still continue The Legacy of the Outriders by talking to Mercer and completing a task for him.
When you return, the quest ends here for now, and you need to go back to the quarry. However, this isn’t possible right now because the truck is broken, and you still have something to do in the forest.
Complete more story missions until you reach the point where a new companion joins you, and you should be able to speak to Jakub again after the fortress. He will take you back to the quarry where you can complete the next step of the quest.
This is how you finish the quest: When you are in the quarry for the second time, the quest continues once again. You need to advance in the story again to explore the remaining areas. We have briefly summarized the further course for you:
after returning to the quarry, you should head to the gate
you will reach it by continuing to play the story
look for Sarah at the Terrible Sculptures at the gate and talk to her
return to the bunker in the quarry for the third time
open the last door and collect your rewards
A detailed run from start to finish is shown by the YouTuber Sipder:

The side quest is the longest in the game so far and will take you several hours, especially if you are playing it for the first time and have not unlocked all the areas yet. The Legacy of the Outriders is closely linked to the main story that lasts up to 40 hours.
With the guaranteed Legendary, the reward is definitely worth the time investment. Normally, you only find the sought-after items randomly as loot. However, The Legacy of the Outriders is one of the few ways to guarantee such a drop. You can find three more here:
“The Legacy of the Outriders” is one of the longer quests in the new loot shooter. It guides you through various areas of the world – and you first have to unlock them. Many players wonder how to actually get to the quarry. MeinMMO explains how to reach the area and how to complete the quest.
What kind of quest is this? The Legacy of the Outriders guides you step by step through multiple areas. You can accept the quest quite early, but it will take you a while to complete it for the first time.
With a total of 13 steps, you have a lot to do, but in the end, you can reap a big reward.
What do I get for it? If you play through The Legacy of the Outriders to the end, you are guaranteed to receive a Legendary. By this point in the story, it may not be your first, but the effort will be worth it.
You need to check off the different stations in order and unlock them beforehand. MeinMMO explains how it works.
Warning: This guide contains minor spoilers about the side quest and the background of the Outriders.
The Legacy of the Outriders: Accept the quest in Trench Town
Where do I get the quest? You start The Legacy of the Outriders in Trench Town. As soon as you arrive there, you will see a hanged corpse with a note reading “Outrider” stabbed to its chest with a knife.
The first clue leads you to Lucy, one of the easy girls in the red-light district of Trench Town. Turn around and follow the narrow alley directly behind you to Lucy or use the display from the HUD.
Lucy tells you to look for Monica for her, who has run away with a Changed. She sends you to the ruins zone.

The mid-season update of Season 2 of Call of Duty: Warzone has changed quite a bit regarding the weapons. However, while the nerfs to the meta weapons were completely understandable, there was a “change” that few people are likely to understand: Some sights of the best snipers are now so broken that they no longer have scope reflection.
What’s going on? Call of Duty: Warzone has done it again. A mechanic that has worked almost seamlessly since the release of Warzone has been destroyed by the mid-season update of Season 2 – the scope reflection of the powerful sniper rifles from Modern Warfare.
It has been known for some time that there are sniper scopes without the so-called “glint”. Some of the scopes from the sniper weapons in Cold War are bugged. Until now, this was only a minor issue because the sniper rifles from CoD MW are still considered by many players to be stronger than the “Cold War” snipers.
Apparently, the weapons from CoD MW have now caught the bug. Snipers like the Kar98k or the HDR are among the most popular and strongest weapons in Warzone – without scope reflection, sniper players have a significant advantage. MeinMMO shows you the details and what the developers have to say about it.
Scope reflection of the strongest Warzone snipers is gone
Why is the missing “glint” a problem? If a sniper player takes aim at you from a great distance, he can take you out with a headshot. Normally, in this scenario, you would have little chance of spotting the enemy before the first shot.
To mitigate this distance advantage, Call of Duty has the sniper glint. If you look in the direction of a sniper peeking through his sight, the long-range shooter is clearly visible to you through the light reflection of his scope.
When snipers look through a large scope, they are usually easy to spot.
In Warzone, the reflection usually starts at scopes with 4x magnification. However, the “Cold War” weapons have already bypassed this rule. They even offer 6x magnification and other zoom levels without reflection.
Now, this also applies to some scopes of the sniper weapons from CoD MW. This makes it really difficult to spot and counter the attacking snipers. If you’re currently wondering in Battle Royale where the sniper shot came from – then run away. A skilled sniper will take you out before you can even guess where the bullet came from. Here you can find out in detail how the sniper reflection in Warzone is actually supposed to work.
Which scopes give the “advantage”? The Warzone expert and CoD YouTuber “JGOD” has tested many scopes and found that the issue does not occur with all scopes of the Kar98k and HDR. However, the variable scopes are definitely broken and therefore really unfair. We have embedded the English YouTube video with the analysis from “JGOD” here:

Will it stay like this? The developers are working on it. The CoD creators maintain a Trello board where they log issues they are working on. The glint issue is already on the board and has the status “under investigation” (via trello.com). However, there is no timeline. Since it is not exactly a trivial matter, the developers are likely to bring a fix for the problem relatively soon.
Mid-Season 2 has patched quite a bit
In fact, the broken sniper scopes are not the only thing that was affected by the mid-season patch:
Broken Reload Perk: Almost all weapons from CoD MW have the attachment “Dexterity”. Normally, this perk provides faster reloading, but currently, the attachment is completely useless.
Broken Debuff Perk: The weapon perk “Fragile – Wounded” of the “Modern Warfare” weapons is also broken. Normally, the health regeneration of hit enemies should start later – that is currently not working.
Contrary Barrels of the FiNN LMG: The machine gun offers some interesting options for the barrel attachment that greatly increase your fire rate. Not so in mid-season 2 – the “contrary” barrels are all broken and offer the normal fire rate of the FiNN.
Often, little bugs disappear as unnoticed as they appeared in the game. But when such an important mechanic as the sniper reflection is no longer functioning correctly, it causes chaos in the entire Warzone. Hopefully, the glint will quickly return to the powerful sniper weapons.

The MMORPGFinal Fantasy XIV announced on Twitter that an old hairstyle, which was previously available, is now making a comeback. And fans are celebrating, as glamour is the true endgame in FFXIV.
This is the hairstyle: The hairstyle that many players desire is called “Modern Aesthetics – Gambler.” The hairstyle was first used by the NPC M’naago Rahz. She is a resistance fighter who players encounter in the Stormblood expansion.
This is what the hairstyle looks like
Originally, the hairstyle was available during the Gold Saucer Festival in 2017 and was only available for a short time. Players who missed the festival or started playing FFXIV later ended up empty-handed. Now, Square Enix announced via Twitter that the hairstyle will make a comeback in FFXIV.
The new patch 5.5 is coming on April 13 and along with it, the coveted hairstyle will return to the game. You will be able to exchange the item for MGP currency at the Gold Saucer. So it will happen without involving the real-money shop.
Prior to this, some players feared: If the hairstyle returns, it will only be in the cash shop. This fear is not realized.
The hairstyle was very popular at launch, which led to a meme or two poking fun at its popularity.
It felt like everyone was running around with the Gambler hairstyle
Fun Fact: Originally, the hairstyle belonged to the playable character named Sice from Final Fantasy Type-0. She fights with a scythe and has a rather distant and cool personality.
This is what players say: On Lodestone, the official site of the MMORPG, there have been comments and wishes since 2017 about the hairstyle returning (via Lodestone). Now, the joy over the hairstyle’s return is great under the announcement post on Twitter. After all, glamour and stylish character appearances are considered the true endgame of FFXIV.

The tweet from the English FFXIV account has over 6,600 upvotes, a number that in recent days only the news about the next Nier raid has reached. Fans of the hairstyle are especially happy that they do not have to pay extra for it.
The hairstyle was part of a limited-time event and such items usually go to the real-money shop after the event ends. This is not the case for the Gambler hairstyle.
One thing, however, dampens the players’ mood. The races Viera and Hrothgar, introduced with Shadowbringers in FFXIV, still cannot use such hairstyles, which frustrates the players of those races.
Patch 5.5 is the last major update before the release of the Endwalker expansion:
PvP plays a role in the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), but the community is having a debate about how significant that role actually is. Because new updates usually revolve around additional content for PvE. Not everyone is pleased with this.
The last PvP update for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online disabled armor sets in the PvP area Cyrodiil for a few weeks to test the impact on the game’s performance. Performance has been an issue in ESO’s PvP for a while now. But what about new content?
What is the problem with PvP? ESO receives a major expansion each year and has recently had three DLCs. These tell a cohesive story that spans the entire year. In 2021, it was the “Gates of Oblivion” with the Blackwood expansion. The story takes center stage in these updates.
New game areas are added, more quests, and also features that affect PvE. This year, these include NPC Companions, which allow players to tackle difficult dungeons without relying on the help of other players. The NPCs do not play a role in PvP.
However, it cannot be said that nothing is happening with PvP. The new Champion System 2.0, introduced in mid-March with the DLC Flames of Ambition, also has effects on player-versus-player battles. However, exclusive PvP features and content that expand this aspect of the MMORPG ESO are missing.

PvP plays a role in ESO but receives hardly any new content.
PvP or PvE? The ESO community argues
Here’s why the community is arguing: The PvP situation is certainly noticeable to the game’s community. There has been an ongoing discussion for years about how important PvP in ESO actually is. The PvP mode of the MMORPG is completely optional. You cannot be attacked without consent, and you also do not need to participate in the battles around the Imperial City if you do not want to.
Those who enjoy PvP can fight duels, engage in battlegrounds, or participate in the Alliance War to compete for the Imperial Crown.
Honestly, it must be said that it is completely irrelevant for the PvE part who sits on the throne. The Emperor and his buffs only affect PvP.
PvP in ESO is essentially detached from the rest of the MMORPG. It feels almost like a different game. While that’s nice, it’s a bit strange when PvE players don’t even realize what’s happening in the central land of the continent Tamriel and who is allowed to be Emperor.
The fact that there are hardly any innovations to the system raises understanding for the frustration of PvP players who feel that this mode is somewhat neglected by the developers.
What the community says: Since not everyone enjoys PvP and ESO places great value on story and quests, discussions on this topic flare up again and again. Here, we summarize some voices from the community.
Those in favor of PvP make the following arguments:
Ozazz says (via official ESO forum): ‘It’s really time for something to happen here. If ESO could somehow introduce a PvP campaign that goes through the past or could revert skills and balance to the old state […]. Seriously, the game is just not getting better for PvP fans, and it needs something to breathe new life into that aspect.’
Micah_Bayer agrees (via official ESO forum): ‘Has PvP been completely abandoned? It makes me angry that there might be a new siege weapon in PvP, while new dungeons, trials, and so on are coming for PvE.’
cheesypiiza says (via reddit): ‘ESO desperately needs more options. It’s not like every year new PvP content comes out like it does for PvE. Two teams of 10 or 20 players, arena tournaments, battle royale… While that’s not necessarily needed, it would help combat PvP burnout.’
PvP opponents counter with statements like:
jhharvest finds PvP actually good (via reddit): ‘PvP in ESO is a complicated thing. A big issue is the lags. But basically, PvP is fun when it works.’
Jimmy_The_Fixer speaks against more PvP content (via official ESO forum): ‘Let’s not split the player base further. That would be dangerous. Especially open-world PvP needs a large player population.’
Tandor wonders (via official ESO forum): ‘The pure PvP population is a tiny percentage of the overall population, and people have been complaining about PvP since launch, but they are still mostly here. PvP players are still playing ESO because, despite the issues they think it has, there just isn’t a better alternative.’
There seems to be little consensus here. PvE fans want more PvE content in ESO, while PvP players want something new to enjoy. Whether major innovations and changes for player-versus-player battles are to be expected at this time is uncertain. Perhaps the developer studio Zenimax Online will one day address PvP on a larger scale. Currently, however, PvE seems to enjoy priority.
What do you think of PvP in ESO? Do you have enough to do, or are you wishing for larger changes?
The WoW-streamer Asmongold accuses the streaming platform Twitch of double standards. While men face harsh penalties for violations on Twitch, female streamers get away with a lot. This is not right and creates an “anti-women” sentiment on Twitch.
This bothers Asmongold: Streamer Asmongold is particularly annoyed about the treatment of streamer Jenelle “Indiefoxx” Dagres.
The streamer has now received a “3-day ban” from Twitch four times. The last 3-day ban she received was for “selling Twitch services or features”.
According to Twitch rules, for example, it is prohibited to offer viewers to make them moderators for donations. Indiefoxx had a promotion running in her stream where viewers could become “VIPs” for 100 subs and receive a special mark.
Apparently, Twitch sees this as a rule violation that results in a 3-day ban.
The streamer Indiefoxx writes the names of subscribers on her body. Source: Dexerto
Others who receive 4 bans in such a short time would be simply removed from the platform:
“If Forsen had done what Indiefoxx did, Twitch wouldn’t just ban Forsen, they would find a way to shoot him to the moon! They would ban him from the Earth.”
What Asmongold fears: The WoW streamer says that with this clear inequality of treatment between men and women, Twitch indirectly promotes an “anti-women” sentiment on Twitch.
This is simply unfair and not right how Twitch behaves here. Everyone should be treated fairly and equally. Even if this inequality affects only a few people, it has an impact on the entire community, as it creates the sentiment: “Some get away with everything.”

Asmongold says: He actually doesn’t want to discuss this topic, as it attracts the wrong clientele: men who hate women. He wants nothing to do with that.
He states: Some men on the internet have the same relationship with women as Gollum has with the One Ring. When they don’t have it, they desperately want it. Once they have it, they hate it. They are just permanently angry.
But no one talks about the inequality between men and women on Twitch for fear of being “canceled.” Therefore, it is up to him to address it. The situation is simply embarrassing for Twitch.
Asmongold compares some men on the internet to Gollum.
Twitch has a ban problem, not a “women vs. men” problem
The ban policy of Twitch simply seems strange and arbitrary overall.
The phenomenon of big streamers being permanently banned and then unbanned because their community goes into uproar contributes to the impression that Twitch does not follow a clear line in its bans.

The graphics card madness continues. Chinese authorities have now secured a large quantity of Nvidia graphics cards after engaging in a chase with smugglers.
What happened? The trade in graphics cards is currently extremely profitable. Many are out of stock, prices have been high for months. Apparently, it has become so lucrative that criminal gangs are focusing on trading GPUs.
In Hong Kong, a chase at sea occurred due to 300 graphics cards. Authorities chased the smugglers with speedboats and later presented the seized loot. As TVB News explains (via YouTube.com), the seized items belonged to a smuggling ring.
The smugglers were spotted near the airport
This mistake was made by the smugglers: As Kotaku reports (via Kotaku.com), Chinese authorities spotted a fishing boat near “Hong Kong International” airport. The smugglers were transferring crates from this fishing boat to a speedboat at 2:00 AM. When their cover was blown, the men onboard the speedboat sped towards the mainland.
A high-speed chase ensued, as Tom’s Hardware reports (via tomshardware.com). Although the group managed to escape, the police tracked down the owner of the fishing boat. This allowed them to seize some crates.
What was smuggled: The seized goods included typical exotic foods, such as sea cucumbers and shark fins, as well as technical products like smartphones, computer gadgets, and RAM. Surprisingly, the crates contained approximately 300 unidentified graphics cards. According to the police report, the value of the technical products amounts to 2 million HKD (approximately 216,000 €).
A portion of the found graphics cards – source: TVB News on YouTube (via YouTube.com)
Neither stickers nor model names are present on the graphics cards. However, as Tom’s Hardware reports, these are supposed to be CMP graphics cards from Nvidia. Apparently, these are the “CMP 30 HX” cards, which are reportedly being traded at prices of around 600 € each.
These graphics cards are typically used for crypto-mining. As Kotaku notes, however, the “CMP 30 HX” cards are not particularly effective in this area. The fact that they are still being smuggled shows how high the demand for graphics cards currently is.
What else happened? At the end of March, Chinese authorities conducted another significant operation that made waves in the gaming community. They arrested what is believed to be the world’s largest cheat provider. The provider sold cheats on 17 websites.
They made so much money from the cheats that they could afford a whole garage full of luxury cars and sports cars.
Legendary weapons are the most powerful firearms in Outriders and can be very difficult to obtain. We show you 3 locations where you are guaranteed to find a Legendary.
What are legendary weapons? These are weapons with unique effects that can be found in Outriders. Normally, you acquire them through drops from enemies, but this requires a lot of luck. The world tier also plays a role – the higher your world rank, the better the loot that drops.
Regardless of drops, there are some places in the game that will guarantee you a legendary weapon. Here we present 3 spots in the game.
Legendary Weapon through Story Boss – Here’s how it works
Here you can get the weapon: For this, you need to defeat the story boss Chrysalismutant (eng: Chrysaloid). You can find him in chapter six, in the forest, as the fourth boss. Once you have defeated the Chrysalismutant, you will receive a guaranteed legendary weapon as a reward, but only for the first kill.
The weapon that drops, however, is random. You will get a Legendary, but you won’t know in advance which one. Additionally, this drop is only guaranteed on the first victory over Chrysaloid. If you defeat the boss a second time, there is no guaranteed legendary weapon anymore. After that, the mutant is still worthwhile, for farming Titan.
When the mutant falls for the first time, a Legendary is waiting.
The good thing about this is that you can defeat the boss even at world tier 1. So you don’t have to sweat excessively against the mutant; you can even take him down on the easiest level.
Maybe you will get lucky here and receive one of these 10 strong Legendarys:
Legendary Weapon through World Tier 12 – Here’s how it works
Here you can get the weapon: You actually don’t have to do anything but play. Once you reach world tier 12, you will receive a golden chest as a reward, which will give you a legendary weapon. For example, the report about the weapon “The Wicker”. This is a legendary SMG that you can equip directly after the drop. However, there are also other weapons as rewards.
World tier 12 is not so easy to achieve, though. You will need to spend several hours in the game to level up to that point. You level up faster in the world rank if you die less frequently. So if you often bite the dust, you’ll need to be patient.
If you are interested in more about Outriders, this might also interest you:
Legendary Weapon through Quest – Here’s how it works
Here you can get the weapon: For this, you need to complete the quest “Big Iron”. There you have to find 3 weapon parts and eliminate some enemies while searching for them. Once you have found all the weapon parts, you will receive a legendary weapon as a reward. You must then return to Channa after finding the weapon parts to claim your Legendary.
The weapon parts are quite tricky to find, so you will need to search thoroughly. Be prepared to eliminate numerous enemies before you’ve gathered all the parts.
In the end, you will be guaranteed a reward and will not have to rely on a random drop. You will have the choice between 3 different weapons:
Aerie Master: A shotgun
The Landlubber: A sniper rifle
Grim Marrow: A light machine gun
Depending on your playstyle, you can choose one of the 3 weapons and use it to slay enemies in the future.
Outriders can be quite difficult on your own, and these easy methods are not necessarily trivial. Especially reaching world rank 12 can take a while alone. MeinMMO author Benedict Grothaus learned this the hard way:
In Destiny 2 PvP is not doing well. PvE players chronically hate it, and even Crucible enthusiasts are really angry. Bungie is now trying to save it, but is it worth it?
The special situation: The ways players of Destiny 2 spend their Guardian daily life can be very diverse. Casually traverse the different locations and complete a few quests for new exotics. Fight solo or in a team through missions and level up. Or would you rather be in raids or test your loadout for endgame suitability in the Trials.
Guardians can also compete against other Guardians. PvP is played in the Crucible or sometimes in Gambit (PvEvP). The PvP often plays a significantly more prominent role in Bungie’s loot shooter than in comparable games. The Division has the Dark Zone and PvP arenas, okay – but with Anthem, Borderlands, and recently also Outriders, PvP is not an issue. The focus is clearly on the cooperative “let’s mow everything down” experience.
However, this tightly interwoven PvP continually troubles Destiny players. And currently, the fights between Guardian and Guardian are really not going well. MeinMMO wants to hear your opinion on the Crucible and how Bungie should deal with it. Before we get to the survey, we’ll briefly address the topic.
[toc]
The fun mode that has only brought frustration since Destiny 1?
This is the PvE criticism: When a new exotic quest requires a trip into the Crucible, countless Guardians feel stepped on. Specifically, those who primarily play Destiny as a PvE shooter. They hate competing against others and find it unreasonable that Bungie constantly forces them into PvP.
Anyone who wants to save the Destiny universe from aliens, gods, and time-traveling robots is understandably annoyed that for the new super weapon they suddenly have to play a mode they have no interest in. We also read your frustration in the comments on MeinMMO (and that since 2014).
Only because of the alleged fun mode has the entire PvE been patched into the ground, killing the soul of the game.
The second major critique, which we also regularly see in the comments, is that PvP destroys PvE (also since 2014). In order to maintain the balance in the Crucible – which many say doesn’t exist – Bungie regularly pulls out the nerf hammer and excessively weakens overpowered weapons.
Often this resulted in the aforementioned weapon also being weaker in PvE. Instead of a god-slayer, Guardians then held a toy gun in their hands. Here again, the criticism is understandable. A mode that you only visit for quests should be responsible for making your hard-grinded favorite weapon weaker?
Crucible enthusiasts feel like second-class Guardians
This is why PvP Guardians are angry: One might think that only the PvE Guardians are complaining about PvP. But especially the Crucible enthusiasts have recently been the loudest in their protests. In Destiny 2, players are now rebelling against PvP – why?
There have been no new maps for PvP for over a year. With the Content Vault, some have even been removed. While PvE Guardians have recently received treats like a Creepy Ship and a new strike, there is no change in the Crucible in sight.
Especially on PC, cheaters are rampant and the PvP endgame (Trials) had to be canceled twice due to unfair practices in the current Season 13.
The Trials also have other problems that make the mode less attractive for “normal mortal” players. Unless the new super weapon is basically given away.
In the Iron Banner event, stagnation reigns; instead of fresh loot, there are only re-skins of old guns.
A constant issue is also balance. Many of the Guardians who enjoy PvP complain about the new Stasis abilities. For months it was either you play Stasis yourself or you lose.
There is also grumbling about the same old meta. Especially hated are the shotgun slides and jumping with shotguns, which seem to be intertwined with Felwinter’s Lie.
Should Guardians fight each other?
In short: PvP players feel neglected by Bungie. And like the PvE Guardians, they have every right to be angry. Especially now, when the current season has spent a large part of its content load on PvE, the Crucible should actually provide incentives to play Destiny 2 during the dry spell. Or should it …
Bungie commits to saving the Crucible
After a long silence, the Destiny developer has spoken up. In the big plans for 2021, the new head, Joe Blackburn, also addressed the Crucible. Notably, Bungie is now really trying to differentiate between PvP and PvE balance. We can also track the long-awaited wish quite well in the latest patch notes.
What is going to happen or has already happened to save PvP:
Quests for new weapons allow freedom of choice whether to play in PvE or PvP (or Gambit)
They want to address Trials issues (like Three-Peeking) and have already brought some really hot loot.
Providing a Security Team twice as large to make it more difficult for cheaters. Additionally, they are already taking legal action against cheat sellers.
They have already reacted to Stasis. A whole series of patches and adjustments for the nasty ice abilities have now been made.
In the future, the dusty Light classes will be revamped to keep up with Stasis (also in PvE).
In the last Iron Banner, players were used as test subjects for a new algorithm.
The Trials want to lure you with strong weapons and stylish armor
Should experts take care of it? Additionally, it seems that Bungie is now seeking help from PvP professionals from the community. Recently, a secret meeting took place with streamers and content creators in attendance, discussing a “rosy PvP future”. We also read statements like “Bungie is really listening and actually making changes” on Twitter.
What is really behind this remains to be seen. Some of you expressed concerns on MeinMMO that not everyone feels represented well by a professional or streamer. Some even blame the streaming prominence for much of the current state of PvP.
If you were in charge at Bungie, how would you deal with the ongoing contentious issue of PvP? MeinMMO wants to know this from you in a survey.
Here’s how to participate: Each reader has only one vote available. So choose wisely from the 6 options. Be sure to explain to us and the other Guardians why you voted the way you did. You can also post your own ideas for saving the Crucible in the comments.
Have fun with the survey and thank you for participating!

Myth of Empires (PC) will offer you a unique gaming experience. In this sandbox MMO, there are no fantasy elements. Instead, you will engage in massive battles where you can even command an army of NPCs. The first alpha is intended to show how this works.
What is Myth of Empires? Set in 3rd century China, you start as a nobody but can rise to become the emperor. However, you begin like in a survival game. You start with nothing, gather resources, craft basic equipment like weapons, and build a shelter. Along the way, you will have to deal with wild animals, bandits, and hostile players.
Over time, you will become more powerful and can even build forts with other players. It’s possible to recruit NPCs to assist you. They can work for you or you can train them to become soldiers.
Later, you will begin conquering entire territories. You will participate in massive battles where you not only control your own hero but also command your NPC army. As the ruler of a land, you will even have to rely on diplomacy to acquire necessary goods through trade.
Horse breeding is important. Horses play a significant role in battles, and your own horse is a companion that supports you and allows you to travel faster.
The trailer of the sandbox game gives you an insight into what to expect in the alpha:

This is how you can participate: Myth of Empires will enter an alpha phase on April 16. This will last until April 23. The alpha is intended to give you an initial look at the online game.
To participate, you can register now on the website (via Myth of Empires). With a bit of luck, you will be selected and can start playing on April 16.
If you don’t get lucky at the start of the test, the developers want to reassure you. They plan to send out more invitations during the alpha to gradually allow more players.
The alpha will be conducted in English and Chinese. The testing phase aims to try out the features of the MMO, find bugs, and gather feedback. So, you should not expect a final gaming experience.
You can watch livestreams and videos from the alpha, as there is no NDA. Or you can stream what you experience in the game yourself.
When will Myth of Empires be released? The MMO currently has no release date. However, it is said to be released on Steam. The developers have not yet announced whether it will be a free-to-play, subscription, or buy-to-play title. They plan to decide on monetization later.
Trainers are eagerly waiting in Pokémon GO for more Pokémon from Generation 6 in the game. Dataminers now show that something is changing in the code of Pokémon GO. A large wave of Pokémon has been added.
This is what happened: The dataminers from the group PokeMiners have previously revealed many contents of Pokémon GO before their actual release. They have earned trust with their findings. On April 7th, they shared a new discovery with the reddit community. It shows 32 Pokémon from Generation 6.
Here we show you which Pokémon these are and what this finding means for you.
The PokeMiners’ Finding
These are the Pokémon: In the leak, the analysts write, “Another wave of Gen 6 Pokémon has been added.” There is a graphic that shows 32 Pokémon and their shinies. We embed the reddit post here so you can see the new Pokémon.

Which Pokémon are these? If you are not very familiar with Generation 6, we will show you the corresponding names from the top left to the bottom right. If available, we will write the evolutions next to the pre-evolution.
Puponcho
Mähikel -> Chevrumm
Pam-Pam -> Pandagro
Gramokles -> Duokles
Parfi -> Parfinesse
Flauschling -> Sabbaione
Iscalar -> Calamanero
Bithora -> Thanatora
Algitt -> Tandrak

Balgoras
Amarino -> Amagarga

What does datamining mean? Analysts regularly examine the code of Pokémon GO and look for changes. When significant changes are seen there, the dataminers typically compile the new information into summaries or graphics to share with the rest of the players. This allows them to discover what’s happening in the game before the developers make official announcements, what functions are being worked on, and what could happen in the next update.
What does this mean for you?
You need to know: Just because these Pokémon were found in the code, it does not mean that you will all have access to them soon. A release date for these Pokémon is not yet foreseeable.
Partially, the Pokémon families in the shown overview are incomplete. The Pokémon Scampisto, which we know will be released next week with the Rivalenwoche in Pokémon GO, is missing in this overview.
On the other hand, we find some Pokémon from the graphic like Pam-Pam, Xerneas, and possibly also Feelinara on the new loading screen. This suggests that at least a small selection of the shown Pokémon in the datamining could be released soon.
So consider this leak with a certain degree of skepticism. Which of the shown Pokémon are you particularly looking forward to? Let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments what you wish for.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone brought a new sniper rifle into the game with a small update on April 7 – the ZRG 20mm. MeinMMO shows you the first information about the rifle and how you can unlock it.
What kind of rifle is this? The ZRG 20mm is a very slow-firing sniper rifle in Black Ops Cold War. The in-game description states that the weapon has a high bullet speed but a slow rate of fire. Additionally, it deals more damage to vehicles and has a very large one-shot range. A hit to the head, chest, shoulders, or stomach instantly eliminates opponents in regular multiplayer.
The weapon is also available in the battle royale Warzone. It says: “Sniper rifle with bolt action. High damage. Instant kills with head or upper chest shots.”
The base magazine of both variants offers 3 shots. The weapon was already announced through the Season 2 roadmap and has now been added to the game. MeinMMO shows you how to unlock the ZRG 20mm and what features it has.
Unlock ZRG 20mm with Sniper Challenge
How do I unlock the ZRG 20mm? You must earn at least 2 longshot medals with sniper rifles in 10 matches.
So grab the LW3 – Tundra or the Pellington in Cold War and go hunting for kills at a long distance from the opponent. Every 6v6 map offers you good opportunities for this, and you should easily achieve 2 longshot kills with sniper rifles per match. The nasty balcony on the Miami map or the long shooting paths on Nuketown’s outside lane are particularly recommended.
But make sure to complete the matches. There have been reports from players that weapons in Cold War do not unlock even though the challenge counter is full. This is considered a display bug, and it is recommended to always play through all matches where you take on the challenge.
You can also accomplish this well in Warzone, but you will probably need significantly longer for the matches than in Cold War’s multiplayer.
You can also directly purchase the ZRG 20mm in the real-money shop for CoD points. The new bundle “Jackpot Sniper” costs 1,200 CoD points (approximately 12 euros) and offers, in addition to the weapon blueprint, an emblem, a talisman, and a gambling-style sticker. However, keep in mind that you can only play with the attachments of the skin – you still have to unlock the base weapon.
ZRG 20mm interesting after initial tests in Warzone & Cold War
How is the weapon in Cold War? The ZRG 20mm fires slowly and has miserable movement speeds. However, you can take down enemies even with body shots – that’s the hallmark of the rifle. This makes the weapon generally interesting for every sniper player, particularly for beginners in quick-scoping. If you want to see more about the new sniper, we are embedding an English gun guide from the CoD YouTuber “TheXclusiveAce” here:

How does it look in Warzone? Judging by the initial tests of the weapon, it could become a strong competitor to the popular, large sniper rifle HDR. The ZRG 20mm has a high bullet speed, a better rate of fire, and aims down sights about as quickly as the HDR sniper rifle from Modern Warfare. An analysis comparing the stats has been published by CoD YouTuber “JGOD”. We are embedding the English video here:

How and whether the weapon will establish itself remains to be seen in the coming days and weeks. However, with the ZRG 20mm, an exciting sniper option has come to both games, and the chances are good that the rifle will perform well. Let’s just hope that the weapon does not turn out to be too powerful. The battle royale Warzone has just nerfed its best weapons, to bring some deviation back into the game.

Bosses are one of the features that Valheim makes so special among survival games. The fights are cool and challenging, but for some players, they are too hard – for others, even too easy. Which camp do you belong to?
What are bosses? The strongest opponents in Valheim are the mythical bosses, which you first have to summon at their altars. Bosses mark the conclusion of a chapter in the game by granting you access to the next area.
Therefore, you should ideally face a boss only when you have upgraded your equipment as much as possible.
The partly gigantic opponents reward you with items that you need to obtain or process better materials. Accordingly, you need a lot of preparation for a boss fight.
What makes the bosses hard or easy? Whenever we write something about bosses, there are differing opinions in the comments. The boss Bonemass, for example, is considered the hardest boss and was made even stronger after player complaints.
It is so challenging because it introduces proper mechanics like poison and resistances that players must pay attention to. For experienced survival fans and RPG players, this is less surprising.
However, since Valheim also attracts newcomers, they find it harder to deal with such things. Accordingly, opinions about the bosses range from “too easy” to “too hard.” We now want to know from you: How hard do you find the bosses of Valheim?
Are there more bosses? The developers have already promised that each of the new biomes will also receive a boss. A total of nine are planned, plus additional mini-bosses if the opportunity arises. Three more biomes are already known:

Tfue manages to use the word “fucking” 5 times in 60 seconds. He is well above the level of Pulp Fiction: The cult film by Tarantino had only 1.7 “fucks” per minute.
Other movies that Tfue would likely enjoy:
Goodfellas with 2.05 “fucks” per minute
The Big Lebowski with 2.4 “fucks” per minute
The Wolf of Wall Street – the film with Leonardo DiCaprio hits 3.16 “fucks” per minute. Almost Tfue level
Tfue has announced that he will now focus on role-playing in GTA 5. He wants to switch to the No Pixel server. Hopefully, the stress there won’t be too much for him, otherwise, the “fuck” count could keep rising:
This means that the change is not “regularly accessible”, but requires an editor. Technically, this is no longer “Vanilla”, but counts as a mod and was apparently sufficient for disqualification.
Tfue blames “fucking haters”
This is how Tfue reacts: He feels once again cheated out of a deserved success. He says: Whenever he wins a Twitch Rivals fairly, something happens to take that success away from him.
Bro, every time I win Twitch Rivals, someone has to come and complain about something “fucking” that doesn’t even matter.

Turner “Tfue” Tenney (23) is one of the biggest streamers in the world. He and his team have now won the important tournament “Twitch Rivals” in Minecraft , but were disqualified and fell back to 3rd place. For him, it’s clear: The haters are to blame. Nothing is given to him.
What kind of tournament is this? The tournament series “Twitch Rivals” is hosted directly by Twitch. These are well-funded tournaments, especially in games that are popular on Twitch but do not have a real esports scene. The tournament usually does not feature professional esports players, but streamers who are presented and promoted in a show.
The tournament “Twitch Rivals Minecraft Mystery Games” took place on April 6th. The idea was that teams of 4 players had to complete 3 segments in Minecraft, which they did not know beforehand.
The winning team of the tournament receives $12,000, but what is more important for most streamers participating in such events is that they are brought into the spotlight by Twitch itself.
For a Twitch star like Tfue, it’s simply about winning and earning respect. It’s known that Tfue is annoyed about having achieved the biggest reach frequently, but he has never won one of the coveted prizes and awards. And Tfue is ambitious.
Tfue is an outstandingly strong player: He managed to be the only “real Twitch” star at the World Championship in Fortnite in 2019. All other major Twitch streamers failed in the tough qualification.
Tfue rose to fame with Fortnite in 2018 and 2019, gaining over 10 million followers and certainly a lot of money, but has turned his back on Fortnite and is now playing Minecraft.

Due to a detail, Team Tfue was disqualified from victory.
Team Tfue is said to have altered brightness in the files – No longer “Vanilla”
This is why Team Tfue was disqualified: The accusation is that Tfue’s team did not play with the “Vanilla” settings as prescribed, but increased the brightness.
To achieve this increased brightness, it is not enough to just tweak something in the game settings, but one had to go into the files and change something, as a Twitter user explains.

The LoL player Martin “Wunder” Hansen (22) is considered one of the greatest talents in European League of Legends, but his passion for World of Warcraft seems to be getting in his way. After a painful defeat, the top laner of G2 Esports has now promised to train harder. First step: He has uninstalled WoW.
What’s the deal with Wunder and WoW? The 22-year-old Dane makes his living with LoL but has been addicted to World of Warcraft for years. Wunder is known for his love of Blizzard’s MMORPG.
In professional LoL matches, he often urges his team, G2, to “wrap it up quickly” because his raid in WoW is waiting for him. This has become a running gag; when G2 quickly finishes a series with 3-0, it’s said behind the scenes: Wunder must have a raid.
Wunder loses important game in LoL, then deletes WoW
This is the defeat: Wunder plays for the European top team G2. This is nominally the strongest team in League of Legends by far, especially since they snatched the best players from the direct competitor Fnatic, Caps and Rekkles.
But G2 is inconsistent: In the playoffs, they lost an important series against the rival Mad Lions 1-3. Suddenly, Wunder proved to be a weak point: He fell short against the Turkish pro Irfan “Armut” Berk Türkek on the top lane. In the series, Wunder died 20 times in 4 games and only secured 8 kills.
G2 has slipped into the “loser bracket” due to the defeat and now must win everything to still become the champion in the Spring Season of the LEC 2021.
This is Wunder’s promise: After the defeat, Wunder merely tweeted: “Okay, I am uninstalling WoW now.” One could take that for one of the typical jokes for which Wunder is known.

However, his behavior clearly shows that he took it seriously: As DotEsports reports (via DotEsports.com), Wunder played 26 solo games in LoL in the last 3 days and won 17 of them. He is now seriously training his mechanics.
Prior to that, he hardly played privately and only completed 94 solo games, while his colleagues Caps and Rekkles had managed five times as many solo games in the same time.
Wunder has also changed his username to “NoWoWFreeWin” – the defeat seems to have motivated him to play the game he actually makes money from more.
Wunder is a man with clear opinions. He embodies the “For the Lulz” culture of G2 Esports like hardly anyone else. Once, he caught attention for complaining about the official League of Legends chairs and sounded far from diplomatic:
The Viking Survival Valheim has sold millions and fascinates countless players on PC. However, so far only on PC – there are no ports for the major consoles PlayStation and Xbox, nor a version for Macs, Apple’s computers. The Valheim team gave an interesting answer as to why this is the case.
What is it about? The survival hit Valheim is one of the most popular games in recent months. Although only a small team worked on the production, the Viking survival game has sold over 6 million copies (via Steam). And the game is still in the testing phase (Early Access).
However, the game is currently only available on PC and for the Linux operating system. While it is possible to run the game on other platforms – officially there are only the PC and Linux versions. A user on Reddit asked the studio about a version for Mac and received a refreshingly honest answer.
What did the Valheim team say about it? The user “AdministrativePast17” posted the response from his email regarding the Mac version on Reddit:

Translation: “We currently do not offer Mac support because we do not have a Mac computer in our office. Providing support, fixing bugs, and testing would take many hours of development that we do not have at the moment. However, it is possible that Mac compatibility will be added at some point.”
At the launch in Early Access on Steam, only five developers worked on Valheim and apparently there was no die-hard Apple fan among them. Because the main reason for the lack of Mac support is simply the fact that they did not have a Mac in the office, said the employee from the studio “IronGate”.
How did this go over with players? In the Valheim subreddit, the thread could garner over 11,000 upvotes and has more than 1,200 comments (as of: April 7, 6:00 PM). The most popular comment is from “bman_78” and has a remarkable 4,300 likes: “The honesty of this answer is refreshing.” Many users seem to be used to a different kind of communication from developer studios.
A discussion then developed about how the small development studio is evolving with its success, what opportunities arise, and what risks such a sudden success brings.
However, a large part of the comments revolves around the fact that this whole issue is about Mac computers. Time and again, one reads “Mac is not for gaming” and various expressions of surprise about why anyone would even buy a Mac. The Valheim discussion nearly becomes a side topic.
What does Valheim generally say about other versions? In the FAQs of Valheim (via valheimgame.com), the developers explain how ports to other platforms stand:
Question: On which platform will Valheim be released?
Answer: Valheim will be released for Windows and Linux. Adding Mac support, fixing bugs, and testing would require many hours of development that we do not currently have, because we are prioritizing the completion of the Windows and Linux versions. We receive many requests for Mac compatibility, so it is possible that support will come later. As for the console release: we are not currently considering it. But it could be something we look into at a later date.
From the Valheim FAQs
The plans for a Mac version are therefore more concrete than a possible release on consoles. However, there is neither a timeline nor a really firm statement about whether the ports will actually come.
Still play on Mac: There are a few ways to play Valheim on your Mac already. One of them is the cloud service “Geforce Now” (via nvidia.com). You can play your purchased Steam games through the app by streaming them from the cloud. There is a free version, but the premium subscription is $9.99 per month. Here you can find more info about Geforce Now.
If you are a little more patient, you can also take the long route: A petition for the porting to Mac currently has 1,000 supporters (via change.org).
For everyone who has been with Valheim for a while, the Mac port is certainly not an issue. It is probably more exciting to see how you can turn Valheim into a true role-playing game on PC. However, the developers’ outlook that Mac computers and consoles may eventually be supported will surely delight players on other platforms.

The 3 best Inform cards in TOTW 28
We take a closer look at the players with the highest ratings in the current Team of the Week.
Lorenzo Insigne receives his 4th Inform card in FUT 21 this week. The shooting and passing stats have improved, making Insigne a very strong option on the left wing.
Fabinho receives his first Inform card with a strong 88 rating. Owners of his Headliners card can be pleased, as his CB Headliners card is now getting its first upgrade.
For Iago Aspas, it’s already the third TOTW card this FUT year. This fresh Inform card offers an upgrade to an 88 rating and improvements in passing, shooting, and pace.
The Bundesliga and 2. League in TOTW 28
In the current Team of the Week, there are a total of 5 players from the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga.
Benjamin Pavard from Bayern Munich receives an 84-rated right-back card, which has good physical and defensive stats.
A strong option for the left wing is the new Inform card from Kostic, which has a strong rating of 86. The speed, passing, and dribbling stats are particularly convincing.
Stefan Ortega from Arminia Bielefeld receives a strong upgrade of 6 points and now has an 81-rated Inform card at the goalkeeper position.
Thuram from Borussia Mönchengladbach gets a solid upgrade and can now show a card with a rating of 83, which scores with high speed and good shooting stats.
Fans of HSV can be happy about an Inform card from Aaron Hunt (79), which overall does not offer particularly strong stats.
Since the latest update on April 7th, it is now easier to obtain important endgame items in World of Warcraft: sockets. This should especially please players who want to play a twink or switch to a new class.
What kind of grind is this? In the endgame zone “The Maw,” the NPC Ve’nari is located. Players must farm reputation over many weeks to reach the maximum reputation level “Exalted.”
Higher levels are needed for some important items that can be purchased from Ve’nari. Two of them are particularly popular among players who want to get the most out of their character:
Fragment of the Unbound Reality – Upgrades one of your media for soul binds with the lowest item level to item level 226
Apparatus for Spatial Realignment – Adds a socket to a helmet, ring, belt, necklace, or bracers
How the grind is now easier: With the new change on April 7th, the reputation with Ve’nari is now account-wide. This means that even fresh level 60 twinks have immediate access to the items while exploring the Maw.
However, they still need to farm the required Stygia. About 7,200 units of Stygia are needed for the apparatus, which can also take quite a while.
My rogue has not yet obtained the reputation, but can still buy the items. Just missing the Stygia.
Easier grind makes playing twinks easier
Why was the grind so annoying? The reputation with Ve’nari is limited. Each day, the “Eye of the Jailer” watches everything you do in the Maw.
Most activities, such as completing quests or defeating rare enemies, grant reputation with Ve’nari but also attract the Jailer’s attention. The more intensely he observes you, the harder it becomes to survive in the Maw.
The Eye rises to up to five levels, with the fifth level triggering a stackable debuff. This reduces received healing by 10% per stack, and at 10 stacks, you regularly receive shadow damage.
Additionally, starting from level 5, you can no longer earn reputation with Ve’nari. This means that even if you play a lot, you can only farm a limited reputation with the Broker. For twinks, this has always been a significant obstacle.
What is a twink? A twink, also known as an “alt”, is a secondary character. Twinks typically benefit from players having a “main” character that supplies them with gold and equipment.
Twinks are usually played less than the main. They serve as backup characters or are equipped when a player wants to switch classes.
What benefits from the change? Many players enjoy playing secondary characters or want to try out a different class. This has been difficult, especially in the higher tiers of PvE and PvP.
Because the apparatus and the fragment are important for these areas. The media that are enhanced with the fragment are responsible for a large part of the strength of many classes. They enhance various skills through the soul bind in your covenant. The sockets allow for the final bit of power to be extracted from the character with gems.
With the change, it will now be easier to gear up and play a twink, provided the main has already earned the necessary reputation. However, you should hurry if you still want to play Castle Nathria and Season 1.
The MMORPG Tower of Fantasy (PC, Mobile) has already been in beta in China and is set to be released there in 2021. Notably, the graphics have reminded many of Genshin Impact. A major overhaul of these graphics has now been presented, bringing it even closer to the RPG from miHoYo.
What is Tower of Fantasy? This game is an anime-style MMORPG. It emphasizes a large, open world that you can explore with your characters, quite similar to Genshin Impact.
In the game, you can:
complete quests and experience a story
climb, swim, and destroy various objects by throwing them into the fire, for example
face greater challenges in dungeons
talk to NPCs who are supposed to have interesting personalities
In addition to these special features, Tower of Fantasy relies on classic MMORPG elements such as character creation, guilds, crafting, and PvP. Unlike Genshin Impact, it is set in a futuristic world. You play on the planet “Ada”, 300 years after a catastrophe occurred there.
The developer Hotta Studios, a subsidiary of Perfect World (Perfect World, Magic: Legends), has announced a significant graphical overhaul. You can admire this in this YouTube video for a direct comparison:

Tower of Fantasy is getting even more beautiful and resembles Genshin Impact even more
What has been revised? According to the Polish website MMORPG.org.pl, almost all elements have been adjusted, including:
textures
general character models
character movement
user interface
game environment
water effects
With the smoother movements and improved textures, Tower of Fantasy now resembles Genshin Impact even more than it did before.
Is the MMORPG coming to us? So far, there has been no statement on this. Currently, it has only been confirmed that the release for 2021 in China is planned.
However, the game is published by Perfect World. They are also responsible for the publishing of the MMORPG Neverwinter. The company has already released games in Europe and the USA.
This is also supported by the great success of Genshin Impact and the fact that the Western market has a high demand for new MMORPGs.
This is also demonstrated by the collaboration of the Chinese developer Wangyuan Shengtang and the German publisher Gameforge. Because they announced the release of Swords of Legends Online, a successful Chinese MMORPG, on April 7th. More on this here:
You can build these cool VR gloves for little money and even use them in Half-Life: Alyx. We will show you what the parts can do.
What kind of gloves are these? An inventor has been working on VR gloves for a few months. Originally, this was supposed to be just a project for quarantine, he says. But now, over 310,000 people follow the crafter and his project on TikTok.
With the gloves, he aims to make the VR experience even more realistic and provides updates on his progress in weekly videos. Now motors also play a role, making grabbing with the hand more realistic.
This is how the VR gloves work
Why is this cool? With the “normal” VR controllers, you have control through your hands, but it feels unnatural. And controlling each individual finger is often unnecessarily complicated.
As reported by PCGamer, reasonable prototypes of VR gloves likely cost thousands of euros (via PCGamer/roadtovr). The do-it-yourself project by hardware hacker lucas_vrtech looks exciting and costs only about $12 per glove. Approximately 19 € for the pair (then you have to add costs for Bluetooth and Force Feedback). And the parts even have “real” finger tracking. You can control individual fingers in games like Half-Life: Alyx with it.
This is what it looks like: Over 310,000 people have followed lucas_vrtech’s account on TikTok since last December. His videos have been viewed over 4 million times.

On the Hackaday website (via Hackaday.io), the developer writes: “Originally this was just a fun quarantine project to keep me occupied, but 200,000 followers later, this project is now much more than that. My goal now is to spread this project as far as possible and hopefully help more people fall in love with virtual reality.”
From video to video, you can see progress with the gloves. In his prototype #4, the project is already quite impressive. He installed haptic motors, like those from the new PS5 controllers “DualSense”. The motors in the gloves are supposed to create the feeling of actually holding something in your hand when you grab something in the game by the tension of strings.

This is known: The inventor has not yet published a detailed step-by-step guide. However, you can find drawings, parts lists, and an open-source driver for the gloves on the GitHub website (via GitHub).
