Twitch streamer kneels before Gabe Newell because he is no longer allowed to spend money on Counter-Strike 2 – begs for mercy

Twitch streamer talks about how she almost lost an important job because others created disgusting content about her

Can this be proven? Platforms like Twitch and YouTube can’t reveal their cards that easily. However, Josh Strife Hayes’ explanation gives an interesting insight behind the scenes.

It is clear: How much a creator earns on YouTube depends on several factors. In addition to the number of views, the length of videos also plays a role. For instance, it could be that a musician might receive over 90 million views with a video, but doesn’t earn that much money from it.

The viewer demographics mentioned by Josh Strife Hayes are another piece of the puzzle. This also makes it clear that the success of influencers is often not as random as it may seem, as there can be significant calculation behind it.

The MMORPG expert, however, has very different advertising concerns: In the course of a collaboration with World of Warcraft and Pinterest, Josh Strife Hayes released a series of shorts on his channel. Fans raised the accusation that the YouTuber sold out, which he vehemently denied.

With these 3 options you can try Warhammer without having to sell your kidney

Benedict Grothaus 29. March 2026 Reading time 5 minutes

Warhammer is considered a sinfully expensive hobby and scares off potential fans just with the high prices of its figures. However, there are some offers that allow you to test whether the hobby is suitable for you at a low cost. MeinMMO presents three options for (relatively) little money.

This is how you start with Warhammer: Before buying a box with figures, you should consider which system you actually want to play. The world of Warhammer is divided into three worlds that differ significantly from each other: Warhammer 40,000, Age of Sigmar, and The Old World.

While the systems share the name, they are not connected in terms of story. You will find a detailed explanation in our special article about what makes Warhammer 40k, Age of Sigmar, and The Old World.

However, consider that The Old World was only released a few years ago as a replacement for the discontinued Warhammer Fantasy. There are still no affordable starter sets available.

[toc]

This basic equipment you need: You definitely need tools and glue, as well as paints. The latter are included in some of the sets, but for most you will need to buy them additionally. You will need the following basic equipment:

a small side cutter for crafting purposes or a scalpel (which is more dangerous to handle)
a deburring tool or flash remover – they are more expensive, but also better for their purpose than scalpels and similar tools.
plastic glue, you can use the one from Warhammer, one from Revell, or cheaper brands, as long as they are specifically for plastic
brushes, a small set from Amazon is sufficient for starters, you don’t need professional brushes
possibly a painting handle to hold miniatures while painting
if you are sure you will be painting more, an investment in a wet palette is also worth it
dice, a game board (which can also be improvised), and a measuring tape if you want to play

Paints and primers are usually cheaper when you need them than those from Warhammer, for example from Vallejo. How you paint your minis is up to you, but with the official app, you get the colors you need to replicate specific orders and regiments. Overall, you will likely pay around 50-70 euros for the basic equipment, depending on the number of colors.

45-55 euros: The starter sets with brushes and paints

You will likely get one of the best deals with the starter sets. They include a small selection of various models from two factions, a rulebook, dice, a side cutter, a measuring tape, a game board, and a brush. With the sets, you can start playing small rounds right away.

The special thing about the starter sets is that you don’t need glue. All models can be assembled without any additional equipment. However, the sets are only available for Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar, not for The Old World:

The starter set of Warhammer 40,000 comes with 16 models (5 Space Marines and 11 Tyranids) and costs standard 55 euros
The starter set of Age of Sigmar comes with 25 models (5 Stormforged Eternal and 20 Clanrats of the Skaven) and costs standard 55 euros

The Skaven are probably the coolest faction from Warhammer, by the way:

One of the coolest races from Warhammer you will never get to know if you only play Warhammer 40,000

A new setting makes Crimson Desert even more immersive, and we show you how to set it up

When buying, be sure to get the “starter set” and not the “beginner set” – the latter lacks colors and tools. You can also find cheaper offers at Taschengelddieb, Fantasywelt, or other providers, sometimes for 20% less.

However, consider that Warhammer 40,000 will receive its eleventh edition in June 2026. Current rules will still apply for a while but will soon be replaced. You can normally still use the figures. If you want to wait (and probably spend more money), a new box will come with the edition: Warhammer 40,000 returns in the new edition to the planet where the greatest wars in history took place

Crimson Desert: Recipes for Colors – How to Mix Your Ingredients Even Without Experience

Christos Tsogos 28. March 2026 Reading time 5 minutes

In Crimson Desert, fashion is a big topic. Armors and fabrics can be dyed in various colors, but in order to do that, you need to mix different ingredients. The selection is crucial, so we show you how to get colors even without knowing the recipes.

How can I mix colors? To mix colors in Crimson Desert, you need a cauldron, which unfortunately is not so easy to find in Pywel. You can find one in Hernand at the Celeste house.

Another method is to talk to the furniture seller at the Timberham Sawmill and buy a cauldron from him – note that this purchase is very expensive, but it may be worth it in the future. Then place the cauldron in your camp to always have access to it.

Do I need recipes for crafting? Not necessarily. Recipes make it easier for you to craft various items as they show you in the crafting menu which ingredients are the right ones. But you can also craft various items without recipes using the “Improvising” button.

As long as you know in advance which ingredient combination is the right one, you can mix everything together and succeed even without a recipe. However, if you make a mistake, instead of your color or potion, you will end up with a mysterious brew.

So that you don’t have to search for recipes for a long time, we show you the right ingredient choices for each available color shade. With our directory, you can also quickly jump to the individual color shades if you are looking for a specific one:

With a trick from experts, you will become better role players right from the start of each D&D session

Caroline Fuller 28. March 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

A group for Dungeons & Dragons uses a kind of warm-up program in their streamed sessions to better immerse themselves in role-playing at the start. This method not only reveals more about their characters, but it can also make you better role-players.

The streaming group “Bards of New York” is, similar to Critical Role, a group of actors and artists who stream their D&D campaigns live for their fans. Due to their artistic background, the group places great importance on collaborative role-playing, the narratives, and the found families of their characters that they embody in the campaigns.

That’s why they have introduced a method at the beginning of their sessions that helps them to better slip into their roles. A kind of “role-playing warm-up program”, as they call it. Here, a player from the group poses a question that one should answer regarding their own character.

This not only helps to dive into the mentioned character at the beginning of a session. It also gives the heroine or hero more depth, little traits that would otherwise not come to light, and allows fellow players a glimpse into the inner emotional world.

In this clip on YouTube, you can see what a typical role-playing warm-up program looks like:

The question “What is the item or object with the most sentimental value that your character possesses or possessed” is just one of many different examples that can instantly put players into the mindset of their character. A method that can not only stimulate the Bards of New York to think but also all D&D groups, including yours. And the group already offers a lot of material for this.

Character development can happen with heavy but also light questions

In the various sessions of the Bards of New York, many questions have already been used that can be utilized in your own sessions with friends to deepen your characters and get into role-playing. And even if you do not place much value on collaborative role-playing, they can help you give your character more personality.

Here are a few examples that you can directly adopt and that show how serious or silly they can be:

What does your character smell like?
What did your character want to be when they were little?
Tell a joke from your character’s perspective.
Which of the seven deadly sins does your character embody the most?
How does your character express love and how do they feel it?
Is your character jealous of another person in the group, and what does this jealousy refer to?
What is your character’s morning routine?
What trait or weakness does your character fear the most that it gets attributed to them?
If your character were to get a tattoo, what would they get and where would they get it?
Name something that your character admires about each of the other characters at the table.

On the official Fandom page of the Bards of New York, there are many more questions that would exceed the length of the article. However, you can find more examples here.

The Appeal of Role-Playing

Besides the “mechanical” aspects of Dungeons & Dragons, such as the choice of race and class, leveling up and combat, many players desire to better establish role-playing, but it is not always easy to do.

Especially for newcomers, a certain shyness might hinder the liberating feeling that arises from a strong back-and-forth between characters.

Even MeinMMO editor knows this feeling well:

Role-playing in Dungeons & Dragons is what ultimately led me to D&D. I stumbled upon Critical Role, the great character dynamics, and emotional moments, and thought: I want to do that too!

The realization is just: I am neither a trained voice actress nor an actor, and neither is the rest of my group. At the start, we were almost all newcomers, and what we imagined strong role-playing to be simply did not reflect our reality.

However, over time, we recognized how much fun one can have when they dare to truly step into their character. Often, it takes the initiative of a player to convey to the rest of the table: Okay, I can jump in here and join the conversation!

I personally have the privilege of playing with friends I trust, which has greatly helped me during my first clumsy attempts at role-playing. However, such things can also develop over time.

Even though we have already accomplished great battles, it is mainly the shared moments between characters that stick in my memory. I have also written more about this in my article about my clichéd warlock.

One of the best LoL teams throws out pro who will be banned by Riot forever

Nico Scheibel 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

In the professional scene of League of Legends, just like in normal matches, there are some players who manipulate their teams. Now one of the best teams in the world has been caught doing so and is taking actions regarding their jungler.

Which player and team is involved? The Chinese jungler Naiyou has been playing for Top Esports since November 2025. The team was able to achieve 3rd-4th place at Worlds, although Naiyou was not yet playing for the team at that time (lol.fandom.com).

With the new roster, in which Naiyou also played as a jungler, they are represented in the Chinese league, the LPL. During the matches, Naiyou exhibited unusual behavior, after which Top Esports sent a report to the LoL management. Riot subsequently created a task force to investigate the case of Naiyou.

What was found during the investigation? On March 27, 2026, Riot announced that Naiyou had committed significant rule violations in several instances. These affected the fairness of the competition. The penalties for the rule violations are as follows:

Naiyou is banned for life, effective immediately.
He loses any claim to official honors and awards.
Moreover, he is prohibited from participating in any capacity in professional or semi-professional competitions worldwide organized by Tencent, TJ Sports, or Riot Games.

Additionally, Naiyou has been released from Top Esports effective immediately. Outstanding salaries and prize money will also be withheld for the time being. Top Esports will further implement stricter controls to prevent future incidents.

Naiyou appears to have engaged in match-fixing

What is match-fixing? Match-fixing refers to the manipulation of matches in esports by a player to gain a personal advantage. According to the official rules, match-fixing is strictly prohibited and undermines the fairness and excitement of the competition.

What might have triggered the investigations into Naiyou? In the subreddit for League of Legends, the rule violation and ban of Naiyou were discussed. The top comment notes that Naiyou caught attention for apparently buying the wrong item during a match.

According to the Reddit user, Naiyou played against only one magic damage dealer and repeatedly bought magic resistance against a strong physical ADC. The site esportsinsider.com also reports on this match, where Naiyou noticeably purchased a lot of magic resistance. However, the exact reason for the investigation remains unknown.

With 20,057,456,271 euros in debt, your best friend in Resident Evil 4 will have to take on multiple jobs – and we are the reason

Niko Hernes 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

In Resident Evil 4, Leon must face many dangers in Spain. However, he also has support. This is not always cheap, but as Capcom has revealed, Leon is not the one who suffers.

Who is the best friend in Resident Evil 4? Both in the original and the remake, there are several characters who are not hostile towards Leon. For instance, there is the president’s daughter Ashley, the agent Ada, or the local Luis.

However, the best friend of the player is probably the merchant. He not only provides Leon with new weapons, upgrades, and equipment. When players encounter him, they know: Now I can breathe.

Even when we pay him with earned Spanish pesetas, he is a kind businessman, for as Capcom revealed, he is pretty deep in debt.

Math is not his greatest strength

How much is the merchant’s debt? Capcom celebrated the 3rd anniversary of the Resident Evil 4 remake on x.com with a crazy statistic. They reveal how much money the merchant has made in the game and how much he has given back to us:

Players spent 39,914,290,699,099 pesetas (about €239,889,718,467) with him
However, players received 43,251,570,618,389 pesetas (about €259,947,174,739) from the merchant

According to Capcom, the merchant has thus lost 3,337,279,919,290 pesetas (about €20,057,456,271) and has gotten into debt because the money has to come from somewhere. For comparison: If you want to buy the rocket launcher in the game with infinite ammunition, you need to spend 2 million pesetas (approximately €12,020).

How can that be? In Resident Evil 4, you can find treasures in the game world that you can sell to make pesetas from the merchant. What exactly the merchant does with the treasures is unclear, so it may be that he resells them.

Unfortunately, the merchant himself was never seen again. In Resident Evil 8, there was a new merchant called Duke, and in Resident Evil Requiem, technology took over the task. There, Leon can acquire weapons and upgrades through a box.

Former Valve employee criticizes Epic Games CEO over layoffs: “Gabe can do it better than you”

Niko Hernes 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The massive layoff wave from Epic Games is leading to criticism in the industry. Now, a veteran who worked for Valve for a long time speaks out on the topic and criticizes Tim Sweeney directly. He explains why Gabe Newell does everything better with Valve.

Who is the Steam veteran? In a YouTube video, Chet Faliszek spoke out after Epic Games announced on March 24, 2026, that it would lay off 1,000 employees. He was a writer for various titles from Valve, such as Half-Life, Team Fortress 2, and Left 4 Dead.

In the video, he harshly criticizes Epic CEO Tim Sweeney for the layoffs and praises Valve CEO Gabe Newell and Steam to the high heavens.

You no longer care about creating things

How does Faliszek criticize the Epic CEO? In his seven-minute video, he starts off quite strongly. First of all, he wonders why anyone should still work hard at Epic Games. He directly attacks Tim Sweeney, saying that he has developed to only make one game and invest all his time in it to make as much money as possible.

This is where the comparison with Gabe begins. Faliszek says: And I guess well, hey, Tim, Gabe’s better at that than you. I don’t know what to tell you, man, because you stopped caring about making things.

He continues to say that he doesn’t know if he would have the motivation to work hard at Epic or any other large publisher (he mentions EA as an example) if he can just be laid off, even if a game is successful.

He again praises Valve significantly. Faliszek explains:

I could retire, I worked my ass off at Valve and could retire today. I made more money than I will ever make. And the money I made is dwarfed by the people who were there longer than me or before me.

In this context, he describes that he felt connected with Valve back in the day and worked hard. His projects meant a lot to him, as did the people he worked with.

Later, he attacks Tim Sweeney again and criticizes that he first raised the V-Buck prices and then laid off 1,000 people. For Faliszek, this shows why the industry is in its current state.

According to him, the industry is losing care and passion. This scares him.

Developers behind Crimson Desert are dedicating themselves to a new rival of Pokémon after the great success, which was announced 7 years ago

Nico Scheibel 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The developers behind Crimson Desert want to continue working on their rival to Pokémon. It was announced 7 years ago and could now be released in a few years.

What kind of Pokémon rival is this? In 2019, the developer behind Crimson Desert, Pearl Abyss, announced the new game called DokeV during a presentation. It’s an open-world game where a bunch of creatures has to be captured (youtube.com).

Originally, DokeV was intended as an MMORPG but was later developed into a single-player RPG (via gamesradar.com). For many years, there was little news about the Pokémon rival until now, when the CEO of Pearl Abyss has commented on the game.

Here is an older trailer for DokeV. What it will look like in the final version is unknown:

After the success of Crimson Desert, the focus is on DokeV

How successful was Crimson Desert? On the first day, 2 million copies of Crimson Desert were sold. Within the first four days, the number rose to 3 million. During a meeting, the CEO of Pearl Abyss, Heo Jin-young, announced that the studio would soon be able to report 5 million copies sold to the shareholders (via videogameschronicle.com).

The focus is now on DokeV: The site gamesradar.com reports on another meeting with shareholders. There, the CEO states that the core team of developers at Pearl Abyss will be working on DokeV in the future.

Furthermore, Heo Jin-young mentions a rough estimated timeframe for the completion and polishing of the open-world Pokémon-like game. According to him, the team will increase the pace of development, and in 2 or 3 years, DokeV should be finished and polished.

5 Vaults in Fallout are pure luxury, even making the post-apocalypse a vacation spot

Christoph Waldboth 28. March 2026 Reading time 5 minutes

The Vaults from Fallout have a bad reputation. This is due to some of the cruel experiments that were conducted in many bunkers. However, there are also positive examples that show: Life in the Vault can also be very pleasant.

Vaults serve in the world of Fallout – contrary to initial assumptions – not to protect people from the post-apocalypse, but to conduct perfidious experiments underground. Some of the worst we have presented in a separate list on MeinMMO.

Today, however, we want to look at Vaults that are the exact opposite: namely places where one can live pleasantly and even in luxurious circumstances. For various reasons, there are no or only “good” experiments on the residents, and instead a livable environment – which in the wasteland is pure luxury.

Vault 81

Known from: Fallout 4

The first Vault on the list shows what could have been if the Overseers had not followed their orders. This bunker was also intended for experiments by Vault-Tec. They wanted to create a cure that would help against all kinds of diseases.

The residents of Vault 81 were to be the test subjects for this. But when the Great War began and everyone retreated underground, Overseer Dr. Olivette suddenly had a guilty conscience. She shut down the system responsible for releasing the diseases that were to be researched.

At the same time, three scientists were locked away in a secret part of the Vault, where they conducted experiments on animals away from the people. The actual Vault residents lived quite a normal life on the other side. There was running water, electricity, and generally good supplies.

In the year 2277, the then Overseer opened the doors to make contact with the outside world. This was to obtain food and spare parts for repairs.

This showed how much the Vault residents had gotten used to their comparatively luxurious life: They reacted to strangers with great skepticism and showed them no trust. The fear that an intruder could disturb the peace was too great.

Rich player receives ban in Path of Exile, loses 1,500 items and the community celebrates

Nico Scheibel 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

Path of Exile is still one of the most played ARPGs on Steam. A wealthy player has now been banned and is losing a lot of items. The community finds this quite good.

Which player is involved? The PoE player Jenebu is not an unknown figure in the scene. He is the head of the Discord server The Forbidden Trove (TFT), which has been serving as a trading platform for items for several years.

Over 700,000 players meet there and exchange PoE items with each other. Jenebu himself says he owns 1,500 items, some of which are no longer craftable today and therefore increase significantly in value.

He also offered a service where he received the so-called “Mirror of Kalandra” from players and could copy his strong items with it. He then traded the copy back to the player and was paid a small fee.

Jenebu was finally banned by the developer Grinding Gear Games on March 26, 2026. In Discord, the wealthy player wrote a longer message about his situation. He does not mention the reason for the ban. Regarding the ban, Jenebu says: “This is the worst day of my life.” (Source: reddit.com)

Community celebrates the ban of the player

What does the community say about the ban? On Reddit, his message from Discord was also posted. One player from Path of Exile commented that this league, i.e., the season, is the best.

Another player writes something similar and refers to the ban of Jenebu as the highlight of the season. Both comments have over 1,000 upvotes (as of March 28, 2026, at 9:40 AM).

Why are players celebrating the ban? In the comments of an other Reddit post, a player explains that The Forbidden Trove was required for high endgame content for a while before direct trades and currency exchanges were introduced into the game.

There are also allegations that the platform would engage in RMT, i.e., Real-Money Trading. This refers to exchanging in-game items for real money and is not allowed in most online games and is a reason for a ban in Path of Exile. However, this allegation cannot be confirmed.

Another Reddit user adds that while he was neutral towards TFT, he is glad that the developers have intervened now because interacting with the platform was not fun.

Borderlands 4 receives its first major DLC for 30 euros, fails at what its predecessors did so well

Niko Hernes 28. March 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

Borderlands 4 has received its first story pack. Along with new story missions, weapons, and enemies, there is also a new vault hunter. However, the DLC is not well received on Steam.

What kind of DLC is this? With Story Pack 1: Mad Ellie and the Jammer Chamber released on March 26, 2026, it is the first major story DLC for Borderlands 4, bringing more content than previous vault hunter packs. Included are:

C4SH as a new vault hunter
A new area
New main and side missions
New collectibles
New bosses and mini-bosses
New gear and cosmetics

The entire story pack costs €30 if you don’t have the vault hunter pack or purchased the Super Deluxe Edition. Although this looks like a full DLC on paper, it hasn’t been well received on Steam and by many fans.

This is by no means worth 30 dollars

What is the problem with the first major story pack? On Steam, the DLC currently (as of March 28, 2026, 09:30 AM) has only 34% positive out of 202 reviews. Thus, the game is rated mostly negative. Looking at the reviews, the length of the DLC is particularly criticized. Some users mention that you can finish the main story in less than 3 hours.

Another negative factor seems to be the price. Even the positive reviews criticize the price of €30 for a game that costs €70 without discounts.

As user Tricylce Enjoyer writes in his review: This is by far not worth 30 dollars, lol. It feels shorter than a BL2 DLC campaign, and those had at least one, if not two raid bosses. C4SH is great, and the level cap increase is nice, but compared to the other outstanding DLCs of the series, it feels … okay?

Like Tricycle Enjoyer, other positive reviews also praise the new playable character C4SH. However, you cannot buy him separately and must purchase the entire story pack.

Did the DLC manage to increase player numbers? Looking at the player numbers on SteamDB, you can see a small jump. While the player numbers previously ranged between 2000 and 4000 players, it peaked at up to 14,800 concurrent players in the last 24 hours.

The previous bounty packs could not achieve such an increase. But even the small increase achieved is still far from the 300,000 players that Borderlands 4 celebrated at launch.

DLCs were a highlight in the predecessors

What does MeinMMO editor and Borderlands fan Nikolas Hernes say about the response to the DLC? To see the DLC received so poorly makes me a bit sad. For me, the DLCs in Borderlands 3 and especially in Borderlands 2 were the major highlights, surpassing even the main titles.

When I think of the pirate DLC in 2 or the western DLC in 3, I realize how great DLCs Gearbox has delivered. The DLCs in the predecessors were not just small new contents; they were improvements for the main game, and the first story pack for the 4th part seems unable to achieve that.

I am happy that C4SH is well received, but since he is only available with the story pack, the negative response casts a shadow over him.

I hope that Borderlands 4 can recover well with upcoming updates because it has the potential to be a really good loot shooter that just needs a bit more love.

But what do you think? Have you played the DLC, or have you completely turned your back on Borderlands 4? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments. Another loot shooter is also making a comeback with a new mode: The Division 2 has created a masterpiece with a new mode and I wish that it were its own game

The 5 most absurd YouTube videos by HandOfBlood

Johanna 28. March 2026 Reading time 4 minutes

The content creator Maximilian “HandOfBlood” Knabe was known for absurd Twitch videos before focusing on YouTube.

The popular content creator HandOfBlood was previously more focused on YouTube before his current Twitch era. With his team, he selected different games and brainstormed costumes, props, and his own storylines for them.

Although the gaming videos were mostly just simple Let’s Plays, HandOfBlood and his team always went the extra mile in the videos. His Let’s Plays were enriched in a very special way and gained a reputation in the YouTube community for being very elaborate.

Start video

HandOfBlood: The most important thing about the YouTuber and Twitch streamer in under a minute

Autoplay

What is this list about? The entries of this list were made based on popularity in views on the YouTube channel HandOfBlood and the author’s subjective assessment of the absurdity of the videos.

In HandOfBlood’s video library, there are some classic Let’s Plays that have made their way into the hearts of the community. Without wanting to extend the framework of this list, we have noted down some “Honorable Mentions”:

Hitman 2 – Since there were various scenarios in this contract killer simulator, HandOfBlood was able to use the most diverse costumes and props. These Let’s Plays thrive on the costume changes and how the creator discovers the funniest ways to commit murder.
Cooking Simulator 2 Pizza DLC – To date, this video is the most successful on HandOfBlood’s main channel. The YouTube video has over 8 million views, in which HandOfBlood tests the limits of his PC. He discovers a bug in the game that spits out an infinite number of olives.
Police Helicopter Simulator – This Let’s Play is the birthplace of the meme That didn’t go so well yesterday. HandOfBlood struggles with this game, which doesn’t tell him what he’s doing wrong but just punishes him by constantly aborting the missions. He is trapped in an almost endless loop where his superior says this sentence.
Highway Police Simulator 2 – It would probably be easier to describe what is not absurd about this Let’s Play: The story, the character creator, or HandOfBlood’s reactions to the sometimes rather strange game.
Thief Simulator – The most iconic aspect of this Let’s Play is probably how HandOfBlood repeatedly wears a balaclava that doesn’t cover his face most of the time.

For this video, HandOfBlood’s team put in a lot of effort. The creatives built a huge green screen background on which a kayak was then placed. Wild.

Some employees of HandOfBlood then donned green suits to unnoticeably rock the kayak back and forth. This was synchronized with the movements in the game.

HandOfBlood controlled the kayak with a paddle. A controller was attached to it, which reacted to the movements of the YouTuber, sometimes more accurately, sometimes less.

Getting Over It

The already absurd game Getting Over It became even more absurd when it became clear that HandOfBlood sat half-naked in a cauldron like the character in the game. Here, the control was supposed to be done with the prop, in this case, a hammer.

This became somewhat more difficult with this setup. The control is already complicated when using just a mouse and keyboard. With a hammer that was often not recognized correctly, the difficulty level increased noticeably.

Sword Art Online is considered a pioneer of animes with questionable content, now the creator presents his new work

Jasmin Beverungen 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The mangaka Reki Kawahara is the creator of one of the most well-known and first Isekai series ever. Now, his next story is being adapted into an anime, and the premise may sound familiar to you.

What kind of anime will this be? Since 2022, the author has been writing the story of Demon’s Crest. There is both a light novel and a webtoon, as well as a manga. Once again, it is about teenagers getting pulled into a virtual game:

The story takes place in the year 2031. Sixth grader Yuuma Ashihara participates in the beta test of the world’s first full-dive VR MMORPG, Actual Magic, along with his twin sister Sawa.
After the group defeats a dungeon boss, Yuuma’s avatar is suddenly enveloped in red light, and he loses consciousness. A normal logout is no longer possible as it was in Sword Art Online.
Yuuma comes to and finds himself in a mixed reality where the video game and the real world have merged. Here, too, a fight for survival begins once again.

Unlike Kirito, who was the protagonist in Sword Art Online, Yuuma discovers a classmate from the real world. Sumika is actually the sweetest girl in the class, but in the mixed world, she suddenly looks like a terrifying monster.

There is also a first trailer for the anime.

New Anime from the Creator of Sword Art Online

What do the two animes have in common? The premise that a student is irreversibly pulled into a virtual world to fight for their life is the same in both animes. Additionally, both series are set in a future setting.

As in Sword Art Online, the protagonist in Devil’s Crest is reborn into a new world. Sword Art Online was one of the first Isekais and a pioneer of the genre. This led to many series where increasingly bizarre premises occur, such as a person being resurrected as a vending machine in another world.

When is it supposed to be released? According to the trailer, the anime is set to be released sometime in 2026. At least it was not included in the winter and spring seasons now, so it can be assumed that it will premier either in summer or in fall.

Tarkov expert plays ARC Raiders for the first time without PvP, tests on Twitch if everyone in the ‘PvE lobbies’ is really friendly

Dariusz Müller 28. March 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

A Twitch streamer tested how friendly the Friendly Lobbies really are in ARC Raiders and found almost a completely new game.

Who is the Tarkov expert? The Swiss content creator SirHansVader participated in a Twitch stream on March 27 and took on a test in ARC Raiders: He wanted to find out whether he would really enter lobbies where no one engages in PvP if he doesn’t shoot at enemy Raiders.

SirHansVader is primarily known for Escape from Tarkov. On his YouTube channel, he publishes tips and guides or discusses the news around the shooter from Battlestate Games.
On Twitch, he shows other games alongside Tarkov, with a focus on shooters. Over the past six months, besides ARC Raiders, titles like Battlefield 6 and Marathon were featured.

As a hardcore Tarkov expert, he usually plays a lot of PvP in ARC Raiders. The game guides him into lobbies where players rarely greet each other friendly. However, he wanted to see for himself if ARC Raiders can indeed be as friendly as many say.

Start video

ARC Raiders has an incredibly peaceful community – Even the developers are surprised

Autoplay

What was the test like? SirHansVader created a new account and played ARC Raiders with a character that had never participated in a match before. His mission was:

Not to shoot at any player, show no aggression, and see if there will still be Raiders who shoot at him.

Even in the first rounds, a clear picture emerged. The Raiders simply walked past him, not seeing him as a threat at all. They greeted him amicably, turned their backs to him, and fought together against the ARCs.

In 10 raids, he encountered 25 friendly Raiders and only one player who shot at him in the elevator. This black sheep was the only PvP encounter during the test.

How did the test continue? The content creator opted for the ultimate test on Stella Montis, the possibly PvP-focused map of the game. Here it would show how friendly the lobbies truly are.

To play Stella Montis, he had to complete 25 rounds on the account. Due to time constraints, he chose to complete part of the rounds by “abandoning” a raid.

On Stella Montis, he could hardly believe his eyes. No one fought against each other, players helped each other against the ARCs, and everyone was friendly. He stood next to other Raiders, played the flute, and even received loot as a street musician.

Even when he stole loot from other Raiders after they destroyed a Bastion, everyone remained friendly. It was almost like another game for him.

He explained that if players prefer PvE, they will more likely be matched with equally pacifistic players in a lobby. Players who engage in a lot of PvP will encounter other PvP fans more often.

Several weeks later, Virgil Watkins, the lead designer of ARC Raiders, added that the game can determine who shoots first. While the shooter does not recognize intent or morality, it does recognize who lands a hit on another Raider first.

Fan prints 1,752 individual parts in 20 3D printers for a life-sized statue of Horus from Warhammer 40k, takes 5 months for it

Benedict Grothaus 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

He is the namesake of the greatest tragedy in the history of humanity: Horus Lupercal. The son of the Emperor nearly caused the complete downfall of the world from Warhammer 40,000. Now a user has dedicated a statue to him that does not fit in any house.

This is the statue: Already in December 2025, we reported that the user “HammerDoris” or “The Imperial Saint” is currently building a life-sized statue of Horus Lupercal.

Doris is quite well known in the community for her cosplays. You can find her projects on Instagram.

Back then, only the legs were finished. Now the statue is almost completely finalized on… these legs. Only the iconic claw on the right hand of the traitor is still missing. In a thread on Reddit, Doris lists some facts about the statue:

The statue measures 4.4 meters from the lowest to the highest point – only 3.6 meters up to the head. That fits, Horus was supposed to be about 3.5 meters tall in his armor.
The entire duration for the project so far is 5 months. She has forgotten the claw so far. Since this is a hobby project, Doris is not putting herself under pressure, she says.
A total of 1,752 individual parts have been used so far. Just the legs needed 594 pieces back then.

At this point you will find external content from Reddit that complements the article.

Link to the Reddit content

How did Doris manage that? For the actual printing, Doris says she ran 20 3D printers to produce the individual parts. However, some details had to be adjusted, such as cutting off part of the leg armor so that the arms would fit.

Arms and shoulder pads are held in position with rods. As she shows in another video on Reddit, she needed a forklift and tension straps for the assembly. The latter could at least already be removed. Now Horus can stand on his own.

The storage, on the other hand, sounds a bit complicated. Due to the enormous size, the traitor lies in separate parts in the garage and completely blocks it, writes the user. What all this has cost, she wants to reveal in a later post.

Horus Lupercal is one of the most important figures in Warhammer 40,000

In the comments, there are some remarks about how such a statue well represents the absurd conditions of Warhammer – and how much larger Space Marines can be compared to humans.

Space Marines are bred super soldiers and are already a good bit larger than “normal” humans. Primarchs, the ones from whom Space Marines descend, are even larger since they are the direct genetic sons of the God-Emperor himself.

A user notes that Horus with such dimensions would not even fit into a normal house, which probably would not pose an obstacle. At least not for the house. Considering how powerful Horus actually is.

Horus Lupercal is known as the ultimate traitor. He questioned the Emperor and his ways and triggered the “Horus Heresy”, the great brother war in which half of the Space Marine legions fell to Chaos.

The following conflict nearly destroyed holy Terra, and Horus himself nearly killed the Emperor. Since then, the ruler of humanity has been bound to his golden throne, which keeps him alive.

But although Horus is regarded as the greatest traitor, he is not the first heretic. In fact, there is even a person who can be blamed more than anyone else for what Chaos has done and continues to do in the galaxy: A man in Warhammer 40,000 is responsible for turning the two greatest traitors evil

User changes his graphics card, realizes: AMD is not as bad as everyone says

Benedikt Schlotmann 28. March 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

Many players swear by Nvidia. One player bought an AMD graphics card and does not regret the purchase to this day. Because the issues are minimal. Moreover, he was able to save a considerable amount of money by opting out of Nvidia.

One user bought a new graphics card and had to choose between AMD and Nvidia. After much back and forth, he decided on a 7900 GRE from AMD. According to him, he does not regret the decision to this day.

The alternative would have been an RTX 4070 Ti Super with similar performance, but he would have had to pay 200 US dollars more for that, which he claims he simply could not justify.

After three months: Regret nothing

The user explains about his purchase and the decision for the RX 7900 GRE:

I had the 4070 Ti Super in my cart twice. In every test, it says it’s the safer choice, better drivers, DLSS is great, blah blah. But at my local Microcenter, the 7900 GRE cost about 380 US dollars compared to 580 US dollars, and I simply could not justify that. The money I saved at Stake, I set aside for a better power supply and an NVMe, which I wanted to save on anyway.

After three months, I do not regret it at all in terms of performance. In Cyberpunk with maximum settings and 1440p, I reach about 78 FPS without Path Tracing, which is more than enough for me. The games I actually play the most run perfectly.

Everything, according to the user, is not perfect. There are mainly minor issues, but they are limited to two games: Forza Horizon 5 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. However, he managed to resolve those issues.

When it comes to pure raw performance (rasterization), AMD can easily compete with the comparable card from Nvidia.

AMD struggles with prejudice about poor software

What’s behind the accusations? Anyone looking to buy a graphics card and deciding between AMD and Nvidia will stumble over a prevailing prejudice:

The drivers and software from AMD are said to be so poor that the hardware is hardly usable. This discussion is also recurring on MeinMMO, where users claim that AMD has technical issues.

On MeinMMO, we also have users who repeatedly state that the severe problems are a thing of the past. For example, Peachbob explains:

I do not know anyone [who has problems]. Anyone who really has a card from AMD can attest that the driver problems are far in the past. Using that argument today simply shows ignorance.

Even when comparing AMD and Nvidia graphics cards directly, the software is still a topic when one has to choose between the two manufacturers. AMD has made various changes and improvements in recent years, but has not always shown good judgment: When it comes to CPUs, AMD has simply not been able to shake off a problem for months.

MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann has relied on the new Radeon RX 9070 since 2025; problems occurred only to a limited extent: With the next update, the problems were mostly resolved and resemble the examples mentioned in the user’s Reddit post.

A new co-op game moves away from overpowered heroes, instead aims to remind you of your first tabletop sessions with friends

Caroline Fuller 27. March 2026 Reading time 5 minutes

After working on titles like the Battlefield series and Star Wars: Battlefront, a few developers decided to dedicate themselves to a completely new project: Wyldheart, a cooperative action RPG that feels like the first Tabletop sessions of friends playing D&D. MeinMMO editor Caro spoke with the team and has already gained some initial insights into Wyldheart.

A few former DICE developers, primarily known for AAA shooters like the Battlefield series, shared a side hobby: tabletop RPGs.

Wyldheart, from Studio Wayfinder, is a new co-op action RPG for PC, developed by veterans from DICE, Mojang Studios, and Embark Studios. Among them is studio co-founder Dennis Brännvall, who has worked as Creative Director for Star Wars: Battlefront.

Together with his partner Fia Tjernberg and other motivated colleagues, the team is now turning away from firearms and gunfights toward something entirely different: a rustic fantasy experience for friends who want to embark on their own virtual tabletop campaign in co-op.

I’ve already had a chance to get a first look at Wyldheart and chat with both Dennis Brännvall and Marketing Director Erin Bower about their game and their shared love for TTRPGs. My takeaway so far: Wyldheart could be a great fit for those who are tired of min-maxing and just want a relaxed evening with friends and a casual tabletop session.

Say goodbye to the idea of being “the chosen one” with the ultimate build

Wyldheart blends various genres like dungeon crawling, sandbox gameplay, and a player-driven RPG experience. You can start a campaign alone or with up to three friends to embark on adventures together. Solo players are also meant to have a balanced experience, though the game is primarily designed for the shared co-op experience.

During character creation, RPG veterans will notice right away: there are no traditional classes. Instead of class progression, you use earned XP to unlock more skills related to adventuring, survival, dungeon exploration, combat arts, and magic.

Right from character creation, it quickly becomes clear: You aren’t meant to start as daredevil heroes here—at first, you’re just some random, perhaps even slightly underqualified, folk.

Players can choose from various fantasy races as well as a background, with a total of 18 variants available. These include more classic examples like an outlaw or a mercenary, but also some more unusual candidates like the butcher, the drunk, or the rat catcher.

In Wyldheart, it’s less about finding a powerful build and becoming increasingly formidable. Yes, there are level-ups and better equipment and weapons to be found in the game. But anyone longing for intense powergaming and min-maxing will find themselves in the wrong place with Wyldheart.

Instead, Wyldheart prioritizes the shared experience among friends—a collective gameplay experience that isn’t just about tactical combat. Alongside the dungeon action, Wyldheart simply feels deeply reminiscent of gathering around a table for a tabletop session:

There is no minimap. No matter where you go, you simply head out and explore.
The camp isn’t just a place to skip the night; it’s a spot to prepare meals together, repair gear, and simply chat—with appropriate emotes, of course.
If a character dies permanently because their Hope has completely vanished (yes, that’s an actual mechanic), it doesn’t mean game over for the player. You can create a new adventurer and—if you so choose—look for a way to revive the fallen hero with your party, or simply move on.
Alongside combat and exploration, skills like eavesdropping, deciphering rumors, and interacting with NPCs are also vital.
The design also leans into this: When traveling long distances, the characters hop across the map as tiny, miniature-style figures.

Wyldheart shines in co-op and aims to be accessible accordingly

A campaign works like a shared save that the group continues to progress through. However, not all participants need to be present to keep playing the campaign. This allows someone who typically has more time to go on solo exploration tours and gather XP in the campaign, even if the rest of the group isn’t there.

When the others eventually rejoin, they also benefit from the diligent player’s motivation and receive the same experience points. This is a huge help for groups of friends with different work schedules, hobbies, or other commitments who still want to be part of a shared story.

In the same way, everyone can pursue the activities they enjoy most—be it dungeons, chatting with NPCs, or looting as many bodies as possible. No player has to sacrifice their preferred playstyle, and they can even complete the tasks that others might not really feel like doing.

Tabletop role-playing games have many facets, and these in particular play a vital role in Wyldheart

I wanted to ask studio co-founder Dennis Bränvall what he especially loves about role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons and how that translates into Wyldheart. I was surprised by just how much his perspective aligned with my own:

Well, personally, I enjoy the role-playing aspect the most. I’d say tactical combat and overcoming tough challenges come next. But above all, I love the spontaneous craziness of tabletop RPGs and the fact that anything can happen. I usually play very thematic characters, not necessarily highly optimized ones.

[He laughs as I joyfully throw my hands in the air.]

I also love it when I have to manage my food, keep an eye on the condition of my armor, and things like that. And I think you’re going to see a lot of that in Wyldheart.

Despite the rather down-to-earth and relaxed-sounding approach of a “rustic” RPG, Wyldheart still offers plenty of challenges. However, these aren’t always found in combat.

“For us, ‘rustic’ doesn’t just mean playing as a simple peasant rather than ‘the chosen one,'” Bränvall explains when asked about the exact definition. “It also means your gear breaks, you run out of food, and your Hope fades—and it’s raining, which really sucks. But that’s exactly what I love about it! It’s not just the monsters that can hurt you, but other things as well.”

Even though I’ve already gathered some initial impressions with the developers, I’m excited to see how Wyldheart feels in co-op with my own friends. That should be a completely different experience.

During our conversation, however, it sounded like the team has plenty of other ideas they could implement in the future, such as various campaigns, potential one-shots for shorter sessions, and more. For now, the focus is on the actual release and a bit of polishing before Wyldheart can become a new regular hangout for groups of friends.

The story of the Bridgertons continues in Season 5 of the series on Netflix. MeinMMO tells you everything about the trailer, release, and cast.

What kind of series is Bridgerton? At the center of Bridgerton is the eponymous noble family from early 19th century England. Mother Violet Bridgerton tries her best to marry off her eight offspring as profitably as possible. However, the (somewhat grown-up) children should not just marry anyone – it should be a love match.

In the currently in-production fifth season, the third daughter Francesca will take the lead role. In the 6th book of the same name, she falls in love with Michael Stirling, the cousin of her recently deceased husband John.

This article will be continuously updated as new information becomes available. You can find the table of contents here:

Since the series has not yet been released physically, it can be assumed that there will also be no release on DVD or Blu-ray for Season 5.

Bridgerton Season 5: All information about cast and plot

Who is in Bridgerton Season 5? So far, there is no official list of actors returning for Season 5, but it is quite likely for some performers.

Masali Baduza as Michaela Stirling

Possible returnees:

Ruth Gemmell as Violet Bridgerton

Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Bridgerton
Luke Newton as Colin Bridgerton
Jonathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton
Simone Ashley as Kate Bridgerton
Yerin Ha as Sophie Bridgerton
Florence Hunt as Hyacinth Bridgerton
Will Tilston as Gregory Bridgerton

What is the plot of Bridgerton Season 5? In Season 5 of Bridgerton, the story revolves around Francesca Stirling. In Season 4, she lost her husband. 2 years after this event, Season 5 is set to take place. Francesca wants to remarry, but the return of John’s cousin Michaela brings emotional chaos and the question of whether she should follow her new feelings.

Season 5 is based on the 6th book of the series by Julia Quinn. The character Michaela already differs significantly from the book in the Netflix series, as Michaela is not a woman there but Michael, the cousin. Thus, Season 5 also tells the story of the first queer main couple in the series.
