At E3 2019, a big new update for the mobile MMO The Elder Scrolls Blades was announced. The patch is already online and fans love it.
What’s in the patch? The Elder Scrolls Blades, Bethesda’s mobile MMO with great graphics, received its first major update at E3 2019. In it, you get among other things:
A new questline featuring a dragon that wreaks havoc
New jewelry
Solo arena battles
New jobs
Leveling up beyond level 50 to level 100 (However, you won’t receive any attributes or skill points after level 50).
Additionally, there were a number of bug fixes and minor adjustments.
„Finally a studio that listens to feedback“
This is how the changes are received by fans: Usually, after updates, there is a lot of complaining in the community of any game. And especially The Elder Scrolls Blades had some dissatisfied players who were unhappy with the rocky launch of the game and some design decisions.
This is how the new update was presented at E3 2019.
However, the new update seems to reconcile many players on Reddit and address issues that had been problematic:
Okay, it looks like you fixed everything that was wrong with the game… and then some! Damn good job, Bethesda! I was already surprised by what you packed into a mobile game and now I’m even more surprised at how you’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in mobile games.”
Such a huge update! Thank you, Bethesda!”
“Wow, this is the first time a studio resolves its problems as suggested in the feedback!”
“Finally, there’s action with dragons!”
What isn’t going over so well? In fact, most players are overall happy with the update. But one thing seems to be causing issues. Those wanting to enter the “Abyss” to acquire fat loot are likely to experience many game crashes.

And this, despite the Abyss having received some bug fixes and allowing for fewer exploits. It seems that something got accidentally broken in the patch.
“The Abyss crashes more often than I can play it!”
“Almost every time I enter the Abyss, the game crashes!”
“Hopefully, a follow-up update will come soon”
Still, players are not letting the joy be taken away from them and are optimistic that Bethesda will close this gap soon as well.
The Chinese company Drodo Studios, which published the mod and mobile version of Auto Chess, is now bringing the game back to PC. It will be available in the Epic Store and will compete with Valve and Riot Games.
Why is the mobile version returning to PC? Originally, Auto Chess was released as a mod for Dota 2 and was thus only playable on PC. However, the Chinese developer created its own version for smartphones and dispensed with the licenses from Dota.
Auto Chess Mobile has become so good that Drodo Studios apparently also wants to return to PC. Their standalone Auto Chess is set to be exclusively released in the Epic Store following an announcement at E3.
The goal of the developers is that anyone, regardless of the device, can play Auto Chess. The only differences should be in the engine. The PC version runs on Unreal Engine 4, while the mobile version uses Unity.
How is Valve responding? The company behind Dota 2 has now recognized the hype and wants to work on Auto Chess themselves. In May, they announced their own version, which will likely be unveiled in August.
But not only Valve is interested in the game mods.
Auto Chess is very successful, even Riot Games is getting involved
One of the most successful games in the world, League of Legends, is now also getting its own Auto Chess version. The game mode will be called “Tactical Teamfight” and was presented in detail yesterday:
How well is the Mod Auto Chess performing? Almost 9 million users have subscribed to the Dota 2 mod in the Steam library. Auto Chess is also becoming increasingly popular on Twitch.
Just on May 28, around 21,000 new Twitch users followed the game category, as Sullygnomes shows. This is by far the highest number of new followers for Auto Chess.
At its peak, 60,338 others watched Auto Chess being played on May 21.
What is the future of the Dota 2 Mod? The future of the mod for Dota 2 is currently unknown. However, several updates have already been released in June, which included new characters, balance adjustments, UI modifications, and even special events.
According to Valve’s own statement, the discussions with Drodo Studios in the past were always positive. Nevertheless, it was agreed that they would work separately on projects.
Many games are now being released exclusively for the Epic Store. What are the chances in the battle against Steam?
Last week we saw the new era of Destiny 2. But much more striking was the new era of Bungie. They broke with old structures and first started with a little troll of the community, at the expense of Epic.
So they thought it would go: When the live stream for Destiny 2 Shadowkeep started on Thursday, fans actually expected Community Manager DeeJ to appear and then greet two developers from the second row on the couch in the studio.
That’s how Destiny streams have been known for years.
So it really was: But this time, the two top guys from Bungie, Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy, appeared in good spirits. The two have been considered the A-Team of Destiny since “The Taken King,” even though they didn’t hit the mark with Destiny 2 and hadn’t been seen for almost a year and a half.
Noseworthy was not interrupted much by this and announced the switch from Destiny 2 PC to Steam, while Smith apparently seemed quite pleased with himself and grinned.

That’s probably just a small thing, but the clip has now over 115,000 views and is apparently going down really well with the fans.
A lot is changing, some things remain
That was different: It seems that Bungie has taken the criticism of the past years to heart and changed a lot about the presentation of the stream, although some things have also remained the same.
Different is:
the location – from the sterile studio to an “improvised outdoors”, where you feel: They really work there
the overall mood: Clearly more relaxed and loose, also a bit cheekier and self-ironic
Datto (right) is probably the most well-known Destiny YouTuber. He was there as a guest moderator and interviewed the developers at Bungie.
That has remained the same:
Bungie is still very frugal with information and only releases piecemeal what they have to say – Datto’s questions fell on deaf ears
the clichés have remained, one has their “fate” in their own hands – and “that’s a conversation we’ll have another day”
The ViDoc has hardly changed, everything still looks awesome – although this time it was more about the workplaces of the developers. Apparently, they want to convey more the image of how much work goes into the game
But the “new era” of Destiny 2 was clearly visible in the stream. More clearly than many players and even we at MeinMMO had expected before.
Both improvised a dialogue while standing, while in the background you could see other people. Somehow everything seemed strange, improvised, different. Not at all like Bungie.
Luke Smith then said: “Someone said we need an epic partner.” He was clearly alluding to the Epic Games Store, which is not exactly popular among many fans.
Noseworthy was not interrupted much by this and announced the switch from Destiny 2 PC to Steam, while Smith apparently seemed quite pleased with himself and grinned.

The big GO Fest of Pokémon GO starts in Chicago on Thursday. Now there is information about the layout, the entry and the special trades. We will show you what is known and what is important for the Dortmund GO Fest.
When does the GO Fest start? It kicks off this Thursday, June 13, and runs all weekend until June 16.
What about the special trades? It has already been announced that players at GO Fests will be able to make multiple special trades in one day.
What Niantic says about the trades
This has now been confirmed again, and at least in Chicago, players can make up to 5 special trades on the day they attend the GO Fest.
It can now be assumed that 5 special trades will also be possible in Dortmund. After all, previous information on the GO Fests has been very similar.
This is what players have already received: The medal awarded for participating in the GO Fest has already been given to players. This can be a good indication of whether the ticket purchase was successful because if so, one should already have such a medal.
This is what the medal for the GO Fest looks like. Source: Reddit
The medal for the Dortmund GO Fest has not yet been distributed. However, it can be assumed that this medal will also be distributed a bit earlier here.
This is what the layout shows: There is now a plan that shows the entire area in Chicago. There you can also see the different habitats that you can visit.
Similar habitats are also expected for Dortmund. If they are the same habitats, then many different Pokémon can be expected. Niantic itself mentions over 70 different Pokémon in Chicago. It could look similar in Dortmund.
This is what the layout for the GO Fest looks like
How does the entry process work? There will not be long waiting times in Chicago. Trainers will be automatically admitted on the day their ticket is valid.
The system is likely to work similarly in Dortmund, but the Westfalenpark in Dortmund is a closed park. You will certainly have to identify yourself as a trainer somewhere before you can enter the park. It may take a little longer here.
What else is there to discover? The GO Fest in Chicago has many other attractions to offer. There are:
A place to compete in PvP battles
A Pokémon Center where merchandise is available for purchase
Several autograph sessions with well-known YouTubers
Similar attractions will also be available for Dortmund. Several YouTubers have already confirmed that they will also be available for photos in Dortmund.
Maybe a missing Pokémon from Generation 4 will also appear there:
Some fans suspect that a spicy detail from the press conference of the E3 2019 by Bethesda was fake: The fans’ reaction was way too strong for what was shown.
Some critics even believe that one rather spicy thing during the presentation was simply “faked”: the reactions from the audience.
Image did not match the sound
What is being claimed? Reddit user Uesugi took a small clip from the Bethesda press conference that made him skeptical. After the presentation of “Orion”, there is long, sustained applause from the audience.
However, the camera scan over the crowd shows that a large part of them is sitting relatively quietly. You can watch the small clip here:

The incident is also hotly debated on Twitter. For example, one “Matt” says:
I am convinced that 80% of the audience is fake or that it is canned applause. Something just seems weird about that. I know people love Bethesda but… come on.

At least one fan may have been more enthusiastic than most. He shouted out from the crowd with nearly every sentence of each developer, which also brought smiles to some:

Placement of microphones in the audience: One theory is that microphones were deliberately placed among people in the audience who were instructed to clap extensively and too much, called “clappers”.
This makes it sound in the stream as if the whole crowd is applauding, even when in the video only a very small part of the audience seems to be really enthusiastic.
The people just had more fun than your grumpy asses
Players defend Bethesda: However, there are also some fans who see it differently and dismiss the criticisms as “conspiracy theory” or have logical explanations. Many viewers would have paid for admission and sacrificed their free time for it. They would rather get caught up in a hype than sit on a convention feeling dissatisfied and grumpy. User Itz_Jolly writes on Reddit:
I would probably choose to just have fun instead of being angry, even if Bethesda deserves a lot of anger. I’d rather cheer sarcastically than resort to booing.
Others find it only logical that a group claps particularly enthusiastically. After all, the audience also includes developers and family members who, of course, participate with more enthusiasm than skeptical fans.
What really is behind this matter is hard to prove. However, it is clear: For many viewers, the image and sound did not match, and the positive reaction of the fans to so many mobile games in a row certainly didn’t match either.
What is your opinion on this matter? Did Bethesda clearly manipulate the fans’ reactions? Or is it just an unfortunate camera angle that does not capture the group that is actually clapping?
Square Enix released the launch trailer for the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers at E3 2019. The trailer showcases a special twist in the story, as well as new enemies and villains.
What can be seen in the press conference trailer? The launch trailer provides a deep insight into the story of the new expansion Shadowbringers. Until now, it was only known that players must travel to the world of The First to stop the flood of light.
Now the trailer gives more information about the story and especially about the roles of the two gods of FFXIV, Hydaelyn and Zodiark. It seems to confirm one of the theories that FFXIV players had about the gods.

What were the players’ theories? For a long time, theories have circulated in the community about who the goddess of light, Hydaelyn, really is.
The behavior of some NPCs and their dialogues led many to suspect that she is not as nice and benevolent as it appears to the player throughout the story.
With the expansion Shadowbringers, this suspicion is now confirmed: Hydaelyn is referred to as a Primal. Primals are typically enemies of the player character and their NPC friends.
The goddess Hydaelyn appears in the form of a talking crystal
They influence the thoughts of humans and force them to worship the Primals to gain more power. These humans then lose their own will forever. This drastically changes Hydaelyn’s role within the FFXIV storyline.
Is this theory really true? The statement that Hydaelyn is a Primal, however, comes from one of the Ascians. These are the main antagonists of Final Fantasy XIV.
Yoshida stated, however, that in the Shadowbringers expansion, the truth about Hydaelyn and Zodiark will come to light. Therefore, it is highly likely that he meant this Primal statement.
One can be curious about what players can expect in the next expansion. Here you can read an interview that provides more details about the story of Shadowbringers:
Almost 10 minutes of gameplay footage for Moze was released during E3 2019, one of the Vault Hunters from Borderlands 3. With Moze, there is non-stop action, as the video shows.
During E3 2019, a lot of information was revealed about many games. Borderlands 3 also received a bit of spotlight with new details released. All players of Borderlands 2 can now play a new, free DLC.
But fresh gameplay footage was also shown for the upcoming Borderlands 3, featuring one of the Vault Hunters. The tough Moze was introduced in detail and got 10 minutes of gameplay dedicated to her.

What can be seen in the gameplay? In the nearly 10 minutes of gameplay, we can see the Vault Hunter Moze blasting her way through a large camp of psychos and fanatic followers of the Calypso twins. In addition to some tactical elements, such as destroying a cryo canister that freezes and slows enemies, there is mainly a lot of wild shooting, with dozens of psychos, fanatics, berserkers, and tinks losing their lives.
Moze – the tough woman in Borderlands 3
How does Moze play? Even though the player in the shown gameplay moves the crosshair in a way that seems almost mechanical, Moze appears to be based on hardcore weapon action without pause. She charges forward, throws grenades at her enemies, and regularly switches weapons to heat things up for them. If the odds become too overwhelming, she simply hops into her mech and continues the shooting spree diligently.
The weapons that the mech has can be modified through talents. As long as Moze is in the mech, she consumes fuel. Once it runs out or her mech has taken too much damage, she gets out, and the cooldown must recover first.
Moze’s talents in the skill video
All talents of Moze revealed: For those who have already fallen in love with Moze and want to plan their talent tree with her, they should take a look at the following video. All of Moze’s talents are presented in detail and briefly discussed. However, be aware that the details may change by the release in September.

Other big names like Ninja, Myth, or NICKMERCS are not there. They all failed in the qualification.
Fortnite World Cup without big streamers – Why?
Who qualified instead? Many players who also stream are participating, but they have not yet reached the massive follower numbers like the streamers. They focused more on eSports than on entertainment and growing their channel.
The Brit benjyfishy has qualified for Solo and Duo
Among the players who qualified for the World Cup is benjyfishy, for example. The 15-year-old is becoming increasingly popular, so his mother already took him out of school. For many Germans, Issa should also be a familiar name. The professional from Ghost Gaming is frequently featured by German YouTubers, which has increased his recognition.
He may not be among the top 50 streamers on Twitch, but he is also likely well-known worldwide: Mongraal, who gained attention as the Fortnite prodigy.
Why are the big streamers failing? There is not just one reason:
Many professionals complained about stream snipers, players who hunt the streamer in the lobby because they are following him live.
Ninja will not be participating in the Solo World Cup
Another reason is likely the intense competition. When Fortnite became popular, and along with it the successful streamers, there was little competition that could really keep up. Now the World Cup attracts professionals from other games with numerous millions in prize money. Everyone wants to try their luck.
Many streamers are successful because they make spectacular kills and want to offer something to their viewers. However, this contradicts the playing style at the World Cup. Here, players play passively, and whoever can hide the longest also goes the furthest. Simply eliminating opponents is not important here.
Myth recommends playing the strategy game “Getting Over It”.
TSM_Myth, on the other hand, now sees it more lightly from a distance. He writes on Twitter: “If you feel bad because you didn’t qualify, just play “Getting Over It” and finish it. I feel like a new person and I’m ready to take on the hunger of the world!”
What do you think? Will the Fortnite World Cup be good even without the well-known streamers?

At the Ubisoft press conference at E3 2019, there was new information about the movie adaptation of The Division. The film is being produced for the streaming service Netflix and features two real Hollywood stars.
At the press conference, it was officially announced that the Division film would be produced for the streaming platform Netflix. However, a release date has not yet been announced.
At the fair, two actors were also announced, who will bring the story of The Division to life: Alongside Jake Gyllenhaal, for whom rumors had been circulating for a while, Jessica Chastain will also take on a role in the film.
However, nothing is known about the characters that the two actors will play so far.
What is the story? The film will apparently closely follow The Division 1. Players find themselves as sleeper agents activated after an epidemic in New York. Many people are severely ill and dying from a virus that spreads through infected banknotes during the Christmas season.
As a member of the Division, players must now prevent the complete collapse of society and restore order to the nearly deserted New York as best as they can. Additionally, it must be uncovered who is behind the virus.

Don’t miss any news about E3 2019 with our schedule and highlights:
At the E3 2019, Ubisoft gave a glimpse into the upcoming co-op game Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine. In the game, you team up in threes to battle a mutated alien parasite.
What is Rainbow Six Quarantine? Quarantine takes place in the same universe as Rainbow Six Siege. Players dive into battle in teams of three against a mutated alien parasite – with familiar operators from Siege. The parasite infects humans and the environment and is described as absolutely deadly.
Players are expected to experience exciting, chaotic, and completely unpredictable missions in each round and take the full risk with their squad when entering quarantine.
The tactical shooter was even inspired by its “big brother”: The idea for Quarantine came from the Outbreak event of Siege from last year.
When will Quarantine be released? A specific release date for Quarantine was not mentioned during the presentation. However, the co-op shooter is expected to be released in early 2020.
What can be seen? Unlike Watch Dogs Legion, there were no gameplay scenes shown for Quarantine. Instead, viewers were presented with a dark cinematic trailer that is supposed to show a bit of the setting.
The video shows a character lying on the ground, dragging himself into a corner with his last strength. In front of him on the opposite wall, the shadowy outlines of ghastly creatures can be seen.
Lines crawl along his left arm towards his hand – seemingly the character has been infected by something. A device on his wrist likely indicates the infection and injects an antidote when the parasite has progressed too far.
After some time, team members come in and first deal with the enemies. Then they must rescue their fallen comrade from the quarantine zone as quickly as possible.
Surprise at the E3 2019: Ubisoft is creating a comedy series about the biggest (fictional) MMO in the world – Mythic Quest in collaboration with the “Always Sunny in Philadelphia” crew.A star of the series presented it at E3 2019.
So Ubisoft surprised many at E3 2019: Ubisoft is participating in a comedy series for Apple TV Plus. For this, they have teamed up with the original crew of the popular US series “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” as well as its cast.
The actor Rob McElhenney, who takes on a central role in the new TV show, presented his new series on stage and in a trailer.
What is the new series about? Mythic Quest, the name of the TV series and the game, takes a good-natured jab at today’s MMO culture, the entire surrounding scene, as well as the developers of this genre.
The biggest MMO in the world is getting its first major expansion, Ravens Banquet, which causes all sorts of chaos.
Here you can watch the trailer for the upcoming TV show:

What do you think of this series?
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
At their press conference for E3 2019, Ubisoft officially introduced the third installment of Watch Dogs. In Watch Dogs Legion, you can recruit multiple characters, but you must also fear permadeath.
What is Watch Dogs Legion? Watch Dogs Legion is the next entry in the Watch Dogs series. The setting is London, where the entire city seems to be rebelling. After Brexit, a totalitarian government has turned the city upside down, and the hacker group DedSec is standing up against it.
What is special? In Watch Dogs Legion, you can rely on a range of characters. You should indeed be able to play as absolutely any character in the city.
The various NPCs are recruited by you and added to your roster once you have completed their loyalty quests. This way, you can simply continue your objective with a different character, even if one of your people meets their demise.
When is it coming out? The release of Watch Dogs Legion was stated during the presentation to be on March 6, 2020.
Why is the gameplay so special? Ubisoft has dug deep into the gameplay box and shown a lot from Watch Dogs Legion. This stands in stark contrast to the presentation by Microsoft, where many games were shown, but only a few real gameplay scenes were visible.

What is visible? In the trailer, the character Ian is seen trying to recruit a drone expert. However, things are not going well for Ian, and he must succumb to his opponents – permadeath!
But don’t worry. You have more characters available for your hacking work. Like the spry grandma who just fed some pigeons.
What multiplayer options are there? According to the Ubisoft store, Watch Dogs Legion will offer not only the campaign but also co-op missions for up to four players. You can take your own characters online.
There will also be endgame challenges and daily events.
Warframe was featured at the PC Gaming Show press conference at E3 2019. Instead of new information, there was advertising for TennoCon.
What happened? A presentation by Digital Extremes, the creators behind Warframe, was announced for the PC Gaming Show at E3 2019. It was said that there would be a look at the upcoming space battles. These are planned for the Empyrian update. Players will get their own combat ships and can fight with them in coop.

The trailer only contains previously known footage of the space battles. There were no new updates or information about the update or space battles during the entire presentation.
This is how the event was promoted: At the end of the trailer, there is a note that the full reveal of Empyrian and the space battles can be seen at TennoCon (on July 6, 2019). TennoCon is Warframe’s own fan convention, which takes place in Canada.
At the end of the trailer, the full reveal of Empyrian is announced to be shown at TennoCon.
There is also a note that everyone who watches TennoCon live on Twitch will receive the Warframe Nekros Prime for free. This is the only new information from Warframe’s presentation that will surely make many players happy.
The E3 trailer from 2018 was a real highlight at the PC Gaming Show.
Why this is unfortunate: The developers at Digital Extremes are likely working hard to finish the update and make it presentable for TennoCon. After all, the space battles are supposed to be gigantic, and there will surely be more big, surprising reveals at the convention.
However, this presentation at E3 2019 was disappointing. Especially when comparing the trailer from 2019 with that from 2018. This presentation came off as just an advertisement, which is unfortunate because Warframe is a game that is always full of surprises.
At the E3 2019, a new Zombie Army game was announced with a crazy trailer – Zombie Army 4: Dead War. It’s about fighting Nazi zombies led by an undead Hitler in co-op.
Rebellion Developments, the creators of Sniper Elite 4, presented a new game at the PC Gamer Show during E3 2019 – Zombie Army 4: Dead War. However, the shooter is different from what most fans would expect.
This is shown in the trailer: No real gameplay from the spin-off of Sniper Elite can be seen yet. This will be shown on June 11. However, the cinematic trailer clearly shows what the game is about – namely the fight against Nazi zombies.
At the end, the obvious leader of the zombies can be seen – an undead Hitler, who laughs shamelessly. He will probably need to be sent back to hell (again).

What’s in Zombie Army 4: Dead War: Alone or with up to 4 heroes in co-op, players will face gigantic Nazi zombie hordes in Zombie Army 4. The resistance has defeated Hitler and sent him to hell.

Do you play it while drunk? During the presentation at the PC Gaming Show, Tripwire President John Gibson and Steve Piggot from Torn Banner explained that players play Chivalry while drunk. “We know that at least half of our players play the game drunk.”
It is unclear where they got this data.
What is it about? Chivalry II is a multiplayer game played from the first-person perspective. You can expect epic medieval battles.
The combat system of its predecessor has been completely overhauled. Players will recognize it in Chivalry 2, but everything is designed to feel smoother and more natural.
Matches can be played with up to 64 players. Set villages on fire or clear your way with catapults.
If you want, you can grab a sword or other weapons. Horse riding is new and has been requested by many players.
What makes it special: The battles are set to be particularly epic. In an interview with PC Gamer, Steven Piggot from Torn Banner Studios reveals that Chivalry 2 has been specifically designed for the chaotic and intense style of medieval battles.
Also interesting is how much you can customize your characters. You give them personalized phrases to say in battle. So you can quote Shakespeare while stabbing an opponent in the face with a sword.
When is the release? Chivalry II is set to be released “early 2020” on the Epic Games Store. There is no specific release date yet.

However, every player will have access to the full game, not just the BR mode. This means each player can:
We recommend that for a better experience, you find a handful of friends with whom you can explore Appalachia together – or experienced players who will surely be happy to help you. Fallout 76 can also be enjoyed alone.
What is “Nuclear Winter”? The playable update “Nuclear Winter” is the second of three major updates that Fallout 76 is set to receive in 2019. “Nuclear Winter” includes both the new mode and Vaults 94 and 96 as raids, as well as more story. However, the raids and the new story will come at a later time.
