A caring mother set up a valuable investment for her child 25 years ago. She didn’t just open an account or invest in the stock market; she started collecting Pokémon cards.
What kind of collection is this? A mother began collecting the very first 151 Pokémon in different variants as cards 25 years ago. On Reddit, the mother’s child proudly displays the collection, which consists not only of the standard variants but also cards that were only distributed for the first Pokémon movie or dark versions of the first 151 Pokémon.
The pictures of the collection folder show, for example, 3 different Charizards and 4 Raichus:

However, the cards were not meant for playing, but only for collecting. As the child recounts, the mother didn’t even let him touch the cards, and he would still hate her for it. But actually, he should worship her for it when we look at the value of the collection.

If we assume that all the cards are Grade 10 (in perfect condition), the following prices for some of the most expensive cards would result according to Price Charting:
This would result in a total value of approx. 60,500 €. However, it should be mentioned that the value drops drastically if it is not a Grade 10 but a Grade 9. For example, a Charizard drops from around 15,000 Euros to just 770 Euros.
Since the cards are not completely sealed, it is even possible that they are not rated at the very highest rank regarding their received quality.
But either way, the child can tell a good profit with the cards. Back then, booster packs with the cards shown here cost between 8 and 10 DM, or about 4 to 5 Euros.
In Pokémon GO, the Environment Week starts with Salanga, Tentagra, and a costumed Galar-Corasonn. But how do you catch the three? And what else is included in the event?
When does Environment Week start? Environment Week starts on April 14, 2026 at 10:00 AM. It ends on April 20 at 8:00 PM.
What’s in it? Many of the contents revolve around exploring the environment and walking routes. The highlights are the debut of Salanga, which evolves into Sanaconda, as well as Galar-Corasonn with pink sunglasses and the appearance of Tentagra as a Shiny.
How do I catch Salanga? It won’t be that easy, as Salanga will primarily appear in areas with desert biomes. This is similar to Schligda, which only appeared on beaches. The biomes in Pokémon GO can be recognized by the backgrounds that appear in the catch screen. Currently, there is a lack of deserts in this country. We will keep you updated when it is clearer how the release works.
How do I catch Galar-Corasonn? Galar-Corasonn appears everywhere in the wild at first. You will have an increased Shiny chance for the Pokémon when hatching 7 km eggs. It can then hatch with a higher probability as a Shiny.
How do I catch Tentagra? The Plant Tentacha appears in forest areas and meadows. These are more common in Germany than deserts. So, you can try your luck well in the local forests. There is no increased Shiny chance, but at least there is an opportunity to get it as a shiny.

In ARC Raiders are some of the most important items the Hornet Drivers. You need them for construction projects, missions, and even for upgrading your workbenches. However, they are not easy to find, so we will show you a way to quickly get them.
Where can I find Hornets? The best way to get Hornets is to visit the Spaceport while the “Hidden Bunker” event is active. Now head to the center of the map and try to climb one of the many roofs.
Hornets often patrol in various areas of the maps, together with Wasps or Rocket Gunners. If the Spaceport is not for you, you can also visit the Swamp of the Dam Battlefields. This area often has smaller groups of flying ARCs, and one of them might also be a Wasp.

ARC Raiders brings new Flashpoint update – there are rumors brewing in Speranza
Destroy Hornets and find Drivers
How do I best destroy Hornets? The Hornets are moderately armored flying units that attack you with a kind of “Taser” and shock you for a short time upon hit. For this reason, you need to react quickly when you see them.
Firearms like the Anvil are particularly suitable as weapons. Focus your fire mainly on their thrusters located on the side of their chassis. Just two shots are enough to destabilize them. When they no longer have enough lift, they will crash to the ground and explode.
If you are not particularly accurate shooters, you can also resort to homing grenades like the Wolfpacks. You just have to throw them once into the air, and the rocket will take care of the rest, bringing them down with an explosion.
How do I get the Hornet Drivers? After defeating each Hornet, you have a certain chance of receiving a Hornet Driver when looting the remains. A drop is unfortunately not guaranteed, so you will need to invest some time farming to get the quantity you need.
What can Hornet Drivers do? The Hornet Drivers can shock your opponents, whether human or mechanical, when thrown. Besides that, you can also use them for upgrading your workbench. Some NPCs also require a few Hornet Drivers in order to complete their quests. Additionally, those who possess the blueprint for the Showstopper can build shocking grenades with the Hornet Drivers.
That was all the important information about the Hornets you need to find, defeat, and loot them. Do you have any good tactics to deal with these pests?

In Crimson Desert you will encounter puzzles where you need to place white and black stones. How to solve it and obtain the teleporter and the artifact is explained here in the guide.
This is how you solve the puzzle: To unlock the boundary stone as a teleporter and obtain the artifact, you need to form a line of 5 stones of the same color. You can either swap some stones by simply picking them up and placing them somewhere else.
Alternatively, you can defeat monsters that block certain spots and place corresponding stones in their place. We will show you here how we completed the whole process in just a few steps.
Select a MMO video…
This is how you complete the puzzle in just one move
This is what you should do: Go to the southern side of the field so that you can see the boundary stone to your left. Then take the white stone that lies next to some black ones directly in front of you and place it one row further ahead between two other white ones.
It should look like this:
With this row, you solve the puzzle with just one single step.
You don’t have to place the stone exactly straight, so don’t spend too long on that. As long as it is somehow in a line with the other white stones, it’s fine.
If it is positioned such that the game sees it as a line, you have already solved the puzzle and can collect your artifact at the boundary stone to the left. From now on, you can also use it as a teleporter for your fast travel.
Crimson Desert is a game that does not really hold your hand. Much will be explained little or not at all. While this encourages experimentation and puzzling, it can also quickly become frustrating.

The Boys goes all out in Season 5 right from the first episode, showcasing action and dramatic scenes. A character finally steps up after several seasons and shows the main villain just how ridiculous he really is. This is how he makes up for his biggest mistake.
Attention Spoiler: In the following article, we spoil events from the 1st episode of Season 5 of The Boys.
The 5th season of The Boys is the finale of the Amazon series, and with that, many characters finally find their closure. Directly in the 1st episode, there is a dramatic situation where a character finally embraces their heroism.
With a death in the episode, the series not only grows beyond the comics once again, but it also shows that it is not just a simple parody of superheroes.
Start video
The Boys shows in the final trailer for Season 5 how far Homelander has come
7 years later, A-Train tries to make amends for his biggest mistake
Which character is it about? Even in Season 4, A-Train showed that he is not just a ruthless supe on Homelander’s side. While saving MM, he realized how good it feels to finally be a real hero. And in Season 5, he lives in exile, hiding himself and his family from Homelander’s minions.
He is asked by Starlight to help rescue Hughie, Frenchie, and MM from a prison camp. At first, he refuses. When conflict arises later in the episode, and Hughie and MM are about to be killed, A-Train appears and saves them both. Afterwards, he flees again, with Homelander hunting him.
While fleeing, a woman suddenly stands in the street, and A-Train swerves. He crashes into the woods and is captured by Homelander. Instead of submitting to Homelander’s power, A-Train laughs at him and insults him: What was I so afraid of? You are a worthless nothing. […] A shitty costume with nothing underneath. Without your powers, what are you even? A pathetic, weak, whiny loser.
Even though Homelander acts tough in the scene, A-Train’s words seem to hurt him more than the blows from other opponents. With tears in his eyes, he ultimately kills A-Train, who dies a heroic death after 5 seasons.
On the Vought International channel on YouTube, the creators have used the death for a video:

A highlight right from the 1st episode on two levels
What makes his death so impactful? A-Train’s death is not just a simple heroic death because he saved the Boys beforehand. It is about the manner in which he died.
In the 1st episode of The Boys from 2019, he is the initial reason for the start of the story. He kills Hughie’s then-girlfriend while running through the streets, not paying attention to anything in his high. For a long time, he doesn’t care about this, and until Season 4, he behaves like an arrogant supe, fitting perfectly into Homelander’s team.
In Season 5, he dies while fleeing after saving his former enemies and still dodging a woman. A-Train has changed.
There, he finally tells Homelander to his face what he really thinks of him. Despite his death, it is a disempowerment of Homelander, as even his inhuman powers cannot protect him against the insults. Homelander, as a character, relies on the fear and admiration of people, which is why the seemingly simple words are so effective in emotionally hurting him.
A-Train also stands out significantly from the comics strongly differs from the comics. In the comics, A-Train was a bastard who constantly did evil and abused his powers in every situation.
The series is not just a parody of superheroes; it understands the core idea of a hero and shows that not all supes are evil and that one can always try to make amends for their actions.
In September 2025, Blizzard went to court against the operators of the largest private server for WoW Classic. Now the court has issued a ruling.
What did the court decide? Blizzard won the court case against the operators of Turtle WoW. The court ruled in favor of the company behind franchises such as Warcraft, Diablo, and Starcraft on all counts and obtained a temporary injunction. The key points of the injunction:
Immediate cessation of operations: The defendants must immediately cease all development, maintenance, distribution, and promotion of their private servers.
Ban on “Turtle WoW 2.0”: The ban explicitly includes modified clients and the planned “remaster” project in Unreal Engine.
Financial restrictions: No donations or payments may be accepted for these projects.
No successor projects: It is prohibited to transfer source codes, software, or social media accounts to third parties to enable a “successor” to Turtle WoW.
Apparently, the operators of TurtleWoW have already irrevocably waived their right to appeal or contest this ruling. Instead, they seem to have reached a confidential settlement with Blizzard, but there are currently no details on this. You can find the full ruling from the U.S. District Court for Central California on courtlistener.com.
Can we expect more Classic experiments like Hardcore soon?

WoW Classic: The Hardcore Servers Are Here!
The path for official Classic Plus is clear
What do I need to know about Turtle WoW? Over the past few years, Turtle WoW has managed to become one of the largest private server projects for World of Warcraft with the promise of a free Classic Plus experience, attracting around 50,000 players at times. In September 2025, Blizzard took legal action against the operators for the first time. It took nearly 8 months until the ruling.
Classic Plus represents a version of WoW that builds on Classic and gradually expands that foundation with new content, rather than following the familiar path towards Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, and so on.
While Blizzard has already experimented with a lighter version of Classic Plus through its Classic seasons, it has never gone all-in. However, due to some hints and suggestions, many fans are currently hoping that this year will see a change and that developers will announce a true Classic Plus variant at BlizzCon in September.
It would fit very well to clear the way by removing Turtle WoW, the biggest competitor for such a format. The Blizzard developers had already done something similar with the private server Nostalrius before they first announced WoW Classic. You probably remember – Nostalrius threatens: “Blizzard makes Classic servers or we will do it”

A rather simple level 1 spell from Dungeons & Dragons can be useful in various situations. However, the community emphasizes that being useful is simply too boring, and the spell can be used in a much more creative and, above all, effective way.
Which spell is being referred to? It is the spell Command (Command), which is quite accessible due to its low level and the widespread occurrence of class-specific spell lists. To cast it, the spell caster must speak a one-word command to a creature, which must follow it on its next turn if it fails a Wisdom saving throw, as long as it is able to. Together with an allied Warlock who can cast Hex and thereby make the target’s saving throw more difficult, this is a very effective control spell.
The rules mention actions such as Come Here, Lie Down, Flee, Drop, or Stop, which are all decent approaches. However, the Dungeons & Dragons community believes that these commands are far too boring and could use a bit more flair. This not only makes them more versatile and interesting but also more effective.

Cannonball instead of Fleeing
How can one enhance the spell with the right command? In the Dungeons & Dragons Subreddit, the user Cobra_T intentionally asked about the community’s somewhat “nicher” favorite commands they use for the spell. Many of them turned out to be not only jokesters but also tough strategists, as seen in these examples:
“Silence!” – “I shamelessly impersonated Paul Atreides by commanding people to be silent,” admits Iliturtle.
“Confess!”– “Used in combination with a Zone of Truth, ‘Confess’ works excellently,” reports ElectricD-92.
“Weep!” – “‘Weeping’ made the target simply weep, and the game master decided it couldn’t move and was half-blind,” recommends huhCH13.
“Strip!” – “I like ‘Strip.’ Fighters remove their armor, spellcasters take off their clothes, in which they keep their magical components. Magical capes and robes lose their effect,” writes BrainyCaveman.
However, those who simply crave a bit more flair could achieve that with these commanded actions:
“Cannonball!” – “A guard joyfully jumped into the ditch while the other shouted, ‘What the hell are you doing?’ Both were immediately distracted,” tells afterandalasia.
“Dance!” – “One of my players recently discovered ‘Dance’ as his favorite word. By using a higher spell level, a bandit raid turned into a flash mob-like dance party,” writes Wundawuzi. It reminds me of a somewhat “cheaper” version of the level 6 spell Otto’s Irresistible Dance.
And finally, recommended by itrogue and quickly becoming the favorite of MeinMMO editor Caro: “Vogue!”
What is the catch? The commands reported by the community can strictly only be used by players of the fifth edition who have not yet switched to the 2024 rule set. It states that it no longer has to be a one-word action but is now limited to the mentioned Stop, Flee, Come Here, Lie Down, and Drop.
However, since a game master is not a preprogrammed game engine, that doesn’t have to be a deal-breaker. Game masters are likely to be more cheerful if their players want to add more flair to their actions. Therefore, you can certainly broach the topic early to create cool scenes through Command.
With these commands, you turn a simple level 1 spell into a deeply versatile, funny, but also effective method to deal with your opponents in Dungeons & Dragons. If you want to learn about even more seemingly innocuous spells that can be quite powerful, we have summarized them for you in a list: Here are 5 inconspicuous spells in Dungeons & Dragons that are much stronger than they appear

Players boast that Amazon sends them boxes of hardware. However, sellers despair at the “generosity” of Amazon. Because in the end, the merchants must bear the damages.
While players can rejoice over this “generosity”, the situation is completely different for the merchants. Amazon’s behavior seems to pose a problem for the companies wanting to sell their products through the platform. The Chinese-language magazine hkepc.com spoke with two different retailers. They explained in the conversation that the delivery of boxes of products is a real issue.

Why is RAM so expensive? The current situation explained in 2 minutes
Amazon ships boxes of hardware, but the sellers have to bear the damage
What is the problem? According to sellers, the problem is that Amazon seems to fully transfer the costs of faulty deliveries onto the sellers. So if Amazon sends a box of memory, it’s probably not Amazon that has to cover the damage, but the seller to whom the goods officially belong.
Since Amazon suffers no losses, the company has no real incentive to check or improve the quality of its logistics.
Amazon has long been relying on a special warehousing system called “Fulfillment by Amazon” (FBA): This is a logistics service where Amazon takes care of storage, packaging, shipping, returns, and customer service for merchants. Amazon itself explains this in a dedicated post.
The responsible person of a Taiwanese brand for memory products, who wished to remain anonymous when speaking to hkepc.com, recently explained that the error rate in these warehouses is extremely high: There have reportedly been multiple serious errors: Even though a customer clearly only purchased one item, the warehouse workers directly shipped a box containing 50 pieces.
Although he requested compensation from Amazon, the company has supposedly postponed the matter repeatedly until it eventually fizzled out.
Smaller Packages to Reduce Losses
The responsible person of the Taiwanese brand for memory products explained when asked whether the “wrongly delivered goods” were just a publicity stunt that these are painful experiences.
To reduce risks, they are now forced to change the packaging from originally 20 pieces per carton to 10 pieces per carton to minimize losses from “incorrectly shipped full cartons” by warehouse workers.
Since the existence of WoW, damage dealers and healers have been desperately looking for a tank. All the components for what we consider the perfect solution proposed by a player are already present in the Blizzard MMORPG.
What is the problem? Anyone wanting to take on the role of a tank in WoW and other MMORPGs often needs tough skin. The group isn’t moving fast enough through the dungeon? The tank pulls too slowly and cautiously! Damage dealers are dying due to aggro? Learn2Play, tank! The tank is taking too much damage? Go farm better equipment and use your cooldowns!
Additionally, they must know all boss mechanics inside out and every shortcut. If things aren’t moving quickly enough or there’s a wipe, the random group often disbands faster than one can spell Orgrimmar. Many WoW players simply do not want to deal with such experiences and the accompanying responsibility. Consequently, groups often have to wait a long time for a tank.

A mini-Chrominius tanking? Sooooo cute!
What could the solution be? Over the past decades, Blizzard has tried several times to make the role of tank more rewarding. Almost all classes added after Vanilla WoW (Death Knight, Monk, Demon Hunter) can tank. Only the Caller is limited to healing and damage. Furthermore, extra rewards are available when one signs up for a role that is currently underrepresented in the group search.
These measures have only helped to a limited extent.
According to a player from the community, WoW already possesses all the components needed for the ultimate solution to the tank crisis:
Gnomes
Druids
Pets
The suggestion by Yibby on Reddit: Gnomes could choose the Druid class in the future and take on the forms of their collected pets through their shapeshifts. Instead of being in bear form, Druid tanks would appear as Chrominius, Lil’Ragnaros, Baa’l, or Jiggles in front of their opponents. How cute would THAT be?!

LumiyaSpellsong writes: “I’ve also been advocating for gnome druids for ages! In late 2005/early 2006, I created an image […], to see how the 0.5 tier set for druids would look on my gnome warlock, and I liked it (and the druid) so much that I designed a whole series of ridiculous graphics for an expansion idea […].” You can find the image on Reddit.

It is known that you can also play Crimson Desert as a cat simulator. The fluffy companions enjoy your company and cuddle up to your character. However, in addition to dogs, cats, and rabbits, you can also find capybaras.
Where can you find the capybara? In Crimson Desert, you can find countless different types of animals. While man’s best friends are already waiting for you in the first city, you can also swim with capybaras at the end of the world.
For that, you must first head to the area “Crimson Desert” and go to the place “Wildbloom Springs” at the very bottom right edge of the biome. There, you will find a kind of oasis where a lake lies in the middle of the desert. In this lake are several splashing capybaras leisurely swimming around, undisturbed.

What pets can you have in Crimson Desert? Although there are many different animals in Crimson Desert, very few are suitable as pets. The game differentiates between pets, mounts, and animals that simply follow their own will.
While capybaras belong to the latter category, you can only have dogs and cats as true pets. According to Crimsondesert.gg, there are 18 different types, each with different colors. This adds up to a total of 112 different types of dogs and cats that can join you.
In the mounts of the game, you can ride not only on horses like the legendary Rokade, but also on wild boars, lions, tigers, or bears. And of course, you can also fly through the air with your dragon. In total, there are 72 different mounts in Crimson Desert.

In 12th place on our list is Secret World Legends. A remake of the mystery MMO The Secret World, which has been “modernized”. Dark alleys and forests create an exciting atmosphere with their creepy beasts, and the thrilling soundtrack adds to the experience. Many quests take place on several levels, thus deviating from the dull “Go there, kill 20 creatures, come back” principle. In the combat system, you now aim with the mouse instead of the TAB key.
The contents of Secret World Legends are free; however, if you want to level up your character faster, you can pay for it. Those who do not pay will have to invest many hours of grind for character development.
Secret World Legends has plenty of content, but it is rarely played today. Updates are now released only in homeopathic form. However, the Steam ratings from the past 30 days are 80 percent positive.

8. Blade & Soul – An Asia Hit in the West
Release: 01/19/2016 | Platform: PC | Setting: Fantasy | Developer, Publisher: NCSoft | Download for the Game:To the official B&S website
The Fantasy Martial Arts MMORPG relies on Asian graphics, a wild revenge story, and action, action, action in Wuxia style. The game thrives on an exciting combat system, where the player must choose the right ability in the right situation to chain together combos.
Everything in the game is fast and direct: With just a few button presses, you initiate the instant action, standing with about five others in a dungeon, and the fight begins. In the best moments, the player feels like they are transported into an Eastern.

Acclaimed PvP with many player-versus-player modes like arenas
Many ways to improve your character
Developers regularly enhance engine and graphics

Suitable for: Those who are looking for a mix of beat’em up and MMORPG will feel welcome in Blade & Soul. The PvP system is fair and allows the better player to win. However, one must really enjoy the Asian or Wuxia setting – it is not subtle. And be able to overlook the omnipresent monetization.
7. Lord of the Rings Online – Great Community in Middle-earth
Release: 04/24/2007 | Platform: PC, Mac | Setting: Fantasy, Middle-earth | Developer, Publisher: Standing Stone Game, Daybreak Game Company | Download the Game:To the official HDRO website
Rank 7 in our MMORPG charts belongs to the world of Middle-earth and the Hobbits. HdRO (or LOTRO) thrives on atmosphere, a great community, and an expansive world. From the tranquil starting zones, players gradually venture into a corrupted world threatened by Sauron’s grasp. In doing so, the player embarks on a journey through a nuanced cosmos that breathes the spirit of the books.

Meanwhile, the story has grown beyond the novels, and we experience events taking place after the War of the Ring, such as the wedding of King Aragorn and Arwen. Last year, the MMORPG celebrated a sort of third spring through the premiere of modern servers and the free provision of many contents. This was recently complemented by a modernized user interface.
Pro
Full-fledged MMORPG with a fantastic fantasy world
Great community that welcomes newcomers with open arms – The passion for Middle-earth connects the players
The Free2Play version was significantly expanded in 2022
Contra
The game shows its age, players often complain about weak performance leading to stutters
Difficult endgame situation: You have to grind or pay to unlock more content.
Suitable for: The Lord of the Rings Online clearly appeals to fans of Middle-earth and Tolkien. Anyone looking for an MMORPG and wanting to dive deep into the multifaceted world of Middle-earth will find what they are looking for here. Although the game is not fresh anymore, the developers are not running out of ideas. According to their own statement, they could bring content for the next 20 years.
6. Albion Online – The Sandbox for PvP Lovers
Release: 07/17/2017 | Platform: PC, Mac, Android, iOS | Setting: Fantasy | Developer, Publisher: Sandbox Interactive | Download the game:To the official Albion Online website
Rank 6 is occupied by the sandbox MMORPG Albion Online. The online role-playing game from Germany aims to provide you with a vast world in which you can forge your own path. Whether as a resource gatherer, crafter, or warrior.
The focus is on PvP battles, but more is increasingly offered in PvE as well. Albion Online uses an interesting system where your equipment determines what role you take in the game. With sword and armor, you are a fighter; with a pickaxe, you gather resources.
Free class system where you determine your role through your equipment
Good mix of PvE and PvP
The economy is driven by players
Player numbers are increasing year by year
Contra
Lots of grinding
Open PvP may not appeal to everyone, especially since equipment can be lost in some zones
Graphic style takes some getting used to
Suitable for: Albion Online is an MMORPG for those who want to feel transported back to the time of Ultima Online. You can be attacked by other players almost anywhere in the world, making it an adventure to gather resources.

5. Star Wars: The Old Republic – Great Stories, Tough Choices
Release: 20.12.2011 | Platform: PC | Setting: Fantasy, Star Wars universe | Developer, Publisher: Bioware, Electronic Arts | Download the game:To the official SWTOR website
The MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic was for a long time a worthy bearer of the title “Best Free-to-Play MMORPG.” SWTOR is one of the most innovative MMORPGs ever. It heavily focuses on storytelling and captivates with moral choices and fully voiced as well as filmed quests – and of course with the Star Wars license, which has become much more present in cinemas and streaming in recent years. This has introduced Star Wars to a new generation.
Start video

Since 2023, SWTOR is no longer part of Bioware. The game has been sold to the third-party studio Broadsword. Many of the developers from the team have moved along to continue taking care of their “baby.”
Good storytelling – The game’s story is highly praised by players as a core element
Rich content – There are enough raids and dungeons to keep you entertained for a long while
Excellent for solo players
Will still be expanded in 2025
Contra
The “Free2Play model” offers a large scope but can also be quite restrictive at times.
The combat system could use more dynamism
Suitable for: SWTOR appeals to Star Wars fans and generally MMORPG enthusiasts. Here, the good story is in the foreground and you can immerse yourself deeply without paying.
However, SWTOR has increasingly developed into a solo RPG similar to Knights of the Old Republic in recent years. Whether the game is still worth playing for you, we reveal here: Is Star Wars: The Old Republic still worth it?
4. Throne and Liberty – The largest MMORPG of recent years
Release: 01.10.2024 | Platform: PC, PS5, Xbox Series | Setting: Fantasy | Developer, Publisher: NCSoft, Amazon Games | Download for the game:To the official Throne and Liberty website
The latest online role-playing game on this list places an unusually large focus on the “Massively” in MMORPG – which is unusual by today’s standards. Those who are eager to make a huge game world unsafe together with thousands of other characters and dive into cooperative as well as competitive content involving a large number of other players will have a lot of fun here.
Start video
Throne and Liberty: Trailer shows regions of the Wilderness of Talandre expansion

Many meaningful detail adjustments for the western market
Contra
Hardcore players are frustrated by restrictions on many contents
Those who want to get the most out of the MMORPG need the right guild
Free2Play model plus real money currency tied to the auction house => bots are a problem
Suitable for: Throne and Liberty is clearly aimed at MMORPG fans who want to fully engage with an ambitious guild and dive into castle sieges, raid challenges, and PvP battles. Thanks to a delightful leveling campaign, entertaining dungeons, or the tower challenges, one can also have some fun in Solisium alone.
3. Guild Wars 2 (Core Game) – The Most Innovative MMORPG
Release: 12/28/2012 | Platform: PC | Setting: Fantasy | Developer, Publisher: ArenaNet, NcSoft | Download for the game:To the official GW2 website
Guild Wars 2 was released in 2012 as a Buy2Play MMORPG and the main game remains one of the best genre representatives that you can play today. With the Heart of Thorns expansion in 2015, the base game of Guild Wars 2 became Free2Play, without Arenanet changing anything about the business model like the cash shop.
Start video

Lovingly designed world with many details that MMORPG fans will joyfully explore
Exciting story that can be influenced by your decisions in the game
Dynamic worlds: something is always happening, many quest events in the open world that you solve together with other players
The horizontal progression is perfect for casual gamers
Contra
Content patches and expansions are increasingly smaller or appear less regularly
Fans of PvP or raid content get little love in Tyria
Suitable for: Guild Wars 2 is suitable for anyone who wants to play a high-quality MMORPG, where its F2P factor is not noticeable. Only fans of PvP and raid content might be left wanting. Horizontal progression has its advantages, but not everyone enjoys it.
2. Final Fantasy XIV (Free Trial) – The biggest WoW competitor
For many years, Final Fantasy XIV has been considered the second great subscription MMORPG alongside World of Warcraft. What some may not realize is that you can now play Square Enix’s online role-playing game largely completely free!
Specifically, the base game A Realm Reborn and the expansion content Heavensward and Stormblood are part of the so-called “Free Trial” version of FFXIV. So you have access to 16 jobs even without a purchased version or subscription and may level your hero up to level 70.
Start video

And of course, you are also allowed to dive into the many content outside of the campaign, such as crafting, the mini-games of Gold Saucer, or the optional dungeons and raid challenges from A Realm Reborn, Heavensward, and Stormblood.
Features like the beginner’s arena, the mentor system, or the preferred worlds help you get started in the beautiful fantasy world of Eorzea. And if you enjoy what you play, you can upgrade your version of Final Fantasy XIV to the latest expansion.
Pro
One of the best theme park MMORPGs on the market
Extremely extensive trial version
Content for almost all player types
Players can also find teammates for low-level dungeons and raids via group search
Contra
The start with A Realm Reborn is sluggish and somewhat outdated.
Those who want to experience the full package ultimately need to subscribe.
Suitable for: In the Pro List, it already states: Final Fantasy XIV offers such a wide range of content that almost every type of player can feel at home in Eorzea. Only if you prefer action-packed combat systems might the static brawls of this MMORPG classic deter you.
Rank 1: Lost Ark – Full-Featured MMORPG from the Diablo Perspective
Release: 11.2.2022| Plattform: PC | Setting: Fantasy | Developer, Publisher: Smilegate, Amazon | Download for the game:To the official Steam page of Lost Ark
Lost Ark was released in South Korea in 2019, has steadily increased since then, and is now considered the best Free2Play MMORPG and the most important MMORPG release since 2014.
The game features powerful hack ‘n’ slash action combat like in Diablo, but combines it with deep and sophisticated MMORPG elements. Lost Ark takes place in a strange Asian world where demons coexist with futuristic steampunk heroes, swordsmen, and cowboys.
Start video
Lost Ark: Trailer zur Valkyrie zeigt die neue Klasse in Aktion
The game is praised primarily for its outstanding development over the past three years, the long-time fair payment model, as well as the enormous variety and depth in content. Criticisms mainly focus on the grindy random factor in armor upgrades, the gender lock which is common in Asian games, parts of the content that can be almost too time-consuming, and the high bot population.
Pro
Outstanding strong development
Fluid, exciting combat
New ideas like sailing
Strong visuals
Events happen constantly, allowing quick access to endgame
Contra
Repetitive game content
Cash shop system heavily favors paying players
Bots are a problem
Suitable for: Actually all MMORPG fans. Especially since the developers keep introducing new systems and events to lower entry barriers and make progress less cumbersome until the endgame.
The Asian setting, the unusual perspective, and the grindy equipment progression in the endgame might deter many western players.
We can recommend all MMORPGs on this list. It should be noted, however, that nothing is really “Free2Play”, no matter what the ads or labels promise you. All the games on our list provide countless hours of fun and can also be played into the endgame without ever having to reach for your wallet.
How much enjoyment one can derive from a certain level when the game throws the “Just pay something already” club between your legs varies from game to game. However, downloading these games is definitely worthwhile. Just to get an overview of the genre and see if other designers are also making great games.

The House Stark is one of the most important noble families in Game of Thrones. These ten members have significantly influenced the history of Westeros.
What was the list based on? The Starks of Winterfell belong to the most venerable and important noble houses in Westeros. Their history goes back far and is as old as the Wall itself.
From Winterfell, the Starks rule over the North of the realm. Before Aegon Targaryen conquered Westeros, it was an independent kingdom. All kings descended from House Stark and held the title of “King in the North” or also “King in the Winter”. After Aegon’s conquest, the Starks lost their title as kings, but retained their rule in the North as “Lords of Winterfell” and “Wardens of the North”.
In their nearly 8,000-year-long history, the house has given rise to numerous legends and heroes. We will look at ten members who we believe had the greatest influence on the development of the house and even all of Westeros.

Rank 10: Lyanna Stark
Lyanna Stark was Ned’s little sister and was supposed to become the wife of Robert Baratheon. But then she mysteriously disappeared. In a secret ceremony, she instead married Rhaegar Targaryen. She was expecting a child from the then crown prince, whom we later come to know as Jon Snow.
However, nothing was known about this love affair. Therefore, it was assumed that Rhaegar had kidnapped Lyanna. To seek justice, Lyanna’s brother Brandon and her father Rickard Stark rode to King’s Landing. However, this was not very successful. The Mad King had them burned.
This, in turn, led to Robert’s Rebellion, the great civil war that would eventually overthrow the Targaryens.
Of course, Lyanna’s supposed kidnapping was not the only reason for the unrest in the realm. Long before, Aerys II Targaryen had many enemies who were just waiting for the right moment. Nevertheless, Lyanna was the decisive trigger, albeit more unwittingly. Not many manage to bring down a nearly 300-year-old dynasty with a teenage romance.

One of the big questions about the Netflix version of One Piece concerns the possible ending. Viewers wonder how many more seasons we will see from the actors who portray Luffy and the Straw Hat crew. The producers provide a realistic answer, which should please many fans.
How many more seasons are coming our way? In an interview, IGN was confident that we have seen about 10% of One Piece so far. They asked whether the producers were ready for a series that goes beyond 20 seasons.
Becky Clements, one of the producers, responded that she would love to see 16-20 seasons. However, she stated that this is far from realistic, which is why she sees the ending coming sooner:
I believe he is more realistic than I am. We agree that we have, in my opinion, 8 to 10. The 16 comes from the fact that I just want to do everything.
Netflix shows in the new trailer for One Piece the many new villains of Season 2
Possible Ending of One Piece at a Certain Arc
When could the possible ending be? In a previous interview, Clements revealed that the team already has plans for 6 seasons. The remaining 2-4 seasons would need to be filled in.
What does MeinMMO editor Jasmin say? With the new realization that it could rather be 8 seasons, the storyline is somewhat stretched, which my colleague has planned. However, I come to the same conclusion regarding the final arc:
Season 3: Alabasta
Season 4: Jaya and Skypia
Season 5: Water 7
Season 6: Enies Lobby
Season 7: Thriller Bark
Season 8: Sabaody Archipelago
And that would be great news for all fans, because this means that the best arcs that the anime One Piece has to offer are still included in the Netflix series. If you look in the community on Reddit or also on YouTube, you can see that especially Enies Lobby, Water Seven, and the Sabaody Archipelago are among the most popular arcs.
Thus, the best is yet to come in the Netflix series. Even if the plan for the seasons should be somewhat staggered or stretched, these story arcs are definitely included. Also, the end of the original will probably be settled soon: When does the story of One Piece end?

While many other game studios are laying off employees and closing projects, one company in Regensburg has been following its success strategy for years, benefiting its employees year after year.
What kind of company is this? Behind CipSoft from Regensburg are MMORPG pioneers who were able to publish a genre milestone with Tibia in 1997, which remains relevant to this day. Due to the not only sustained but gradually growing success, the studio has been able to steadily grow over the years, currently employing just over 110 people.
In fact, the CipSoft executives look back on the most successful year in the studio’s history. With 28.32 million euros, they achieved a record turnover in 2025. The previous record from 2020 was 25.60 million euros – at that time, they benefited equally from the Corona pandemic and the introduction of a service that allowed characters to be sold to other players.
Start video
Vom deutschen Jugendzimmer zum MMORPG-Welterfolg – Die unglaubliche Geschichte von Tibia
Enormous success, enormous bonuses
What is special about CipSoft? It is part of the corporate strategy of the Regensburg company to directly involve employees in financial success. Due to strong sales figures in 2025, almost eight additional monthly salaries are on the table this time. In previous years, the bonuses distributed were comparably high.
Therefore, it probably does not surprise anyone that CipSoft was awarded the title of “Germany’s Best Employers 2026” by the Cologne Institute “Great Place to Work” in March. CEO Stephan Vogler commented on the award with the following words:
In 2025, we welcomed as many new colleagues at CipSoft as never before. We are even more pleased to win an award as one of Germany’s best employers, which is based on an employee survey. The award demonstrates that we also benefit from the unique corporate culture we have built together during a growth phase.
The reasons for success: Despite its old age and old-school gaming experience, Tibia remains very popular among many MMORPG fans and can even report increasing player numbers. In 2025, for the first time in a long time, a new class was introduced to the servers, which many players naturally wanted to try. In addition, efforts are constantly being made to improve the onboarding and attract newcomers to the servers.
The second reason arises from the acquisition of the city-building strategy game “Die Siedler Online” from Ubisoft, which now brings additional money into CipSoft’s coffers.
To ensure that the successful path can also be continued in the coming years, Persist Online is expected to help. The zombie MMORPG with Fortnite vibes was announced in 2024 and is currently undergoing pre-alpha testing. MeinMMO spoke with 2 developers from CipSoft about the new project: New PC MMORPG from Germany is more DayZ than Fortnite, like a Tibia in 3D and with zombies

Many players know it: The ugly helmet covers the character’s face, or the armor looks like a mess. But can you change the appearance of the equipment in Crimson Desert to still benefit from the stats? MyMMO reveals it to you.
How do you hide equipment? You can set whether you want headgear and weapons to be shown on the character in the settings under Menu → Miscellaneous → Settings → Language and Game. You have the following options:
Headgear / Helmets
Always show
Always hide
Show only in combat
Hide only in cutscenes
Melee weapons
Everything (meaning: always show everything)
Only selected weapons
This means that only the weapon you are currently using from your selection wheel will be displayed. So, if you are currently using your pickaxe, your sword on your belt will not be shown, and vice versa.
Ranged weapons
Permanent (meaning: always show everything)
Only when using
You retain the stats of the equipped gear even if you hide it. So set the options that you like visually. You can also choose whether you want to see the character’s facial accessories or not.
Update, April 13, 2026: With the update to version 1.03.00, it is now possible to hide weapons. We have updated our guide and show you how and what is possible.
Start video
Here you will find the legendary horse “Rokade” in Crimson Desert
Can you hide other equipment or apply skins?
How can you customize equipment? In Crimson Desert, unfortunately, you cannot currently customize the appearance of your equipment. You can only dye and change the material if you visit a dye house.
So you cannot hide individual pieces (apart from headgear and weapons), nor can you layer the appearance of other armor pieces over your equipped items. You have to live with what you are currently wearing.
Whether such a feature will be added in the future is currently uncertain. So, if you want to go for fashion, you must upgrade your equipment as best as possible or find other ways to cope in the world. Here you can and must be creative and experiment with what works for you.
Crimson Desert is a game that doesn’t hold your hand. Much is explained little or not at all. While this encourages experimentation and puzzling, it can also quickly become frustrating.

The world of Crimson Desert is full of exciting places, secrets, and offers. If you don’t want to miss anything, you can display everything important on an interactive map.
Which interactive maps should I visit? There are now a variety of helpful, interactive maps for games like Crimson Desert online. Most websites are in English. However, we have also found a German version for you:
All of these maps can be used for your search without registration and come with various filters. If you create an account and log in, you can often use additional features, such as saving your progress, leaving your own notes on the map, or checking off found locations.

What does an interactive map bring me? You can comfortably keep an eye on the interactive maps from various websites while playing Crimson Desert, for example, on a second monitor or on a mobile device like a tablet. Thanks to the numerous filter options, you can display the elements you are currently looking for on the Pywel map.
Particularly essential in Crimson Desert are, for example, the locations of fast travel teleporters and Abyss artifacts. However, you can also display all the hidden caves behind waterfalls, specific NPC vendors, all campfires, all bells (for uncovering the map), or enemy fortresses.
In Crimson Desert there are many mounts you can ride. What they are and where to find them is explained here.
What mounts are available in Crimson Desert? In Crimson Desert, you can use various animals, vehicles, and mechs as means of transport.
Some can be tamed, while others must be earned through quests or unlocked in other ways. Some can be permanently secured for your stable and called to you at any time, while others can only be ridden temporarily and require cooldown periods before you can mount them again.
They offer you various benefits and abilities. The permanent mounts can also be leveled up.
You can find out which mounts are waiting for you, how to get them, and what you need to know about them in this guide.

Many gamers are attached to older games that have shaped their lives. A well-known Twitch streamer and YouTuber wants to revive one of his favorite games and is now offering a reward to his fans. They just have to improve the online mode.
Which Twitch streamer is it? Many fans of fighting games are probably familiar with Maximilian Dood (real name Maximilian Christiansen). On Twitch, he has 1.3 million followers and an average of 5,600 viewers (via TwitchTracker). He has been posting videos on YouTube since 2007 and has gathered 1.87 million subscribers to date.
He focuses not only on new fighting games in his streams and videos but also enjoys revisiting older ones. In one stream, he set up a special reward for his community, offering $10,000 (about €8,500) to whoever can improve the online mode of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.

The experience of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 should finally be better
What should be done for the money? In a Twitch stream from April 11, Maximilian Dood talked for about an hour about Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, one of his favorite games (source: YouTube). He casually offered a reward of $10,000 for a rollback netcode for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom.
Rollback netcode is the most convenient form of online system to simulate the experience of an offline match in a fighting game online. When you press a button, it is executed as quickly as possible without waiting for the opponent’s signal because the game itself anticipates what the next action will be.
With rollback netcode, you don’t have to wait for both players to perform an action, which reduces the lag. This is essential for precise and fast games like fighting games to guarantee a strong online experience. Nowadays, many new fighting games utilize rollback netcode.
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, being a game from 2011 (released on Steam in 2017), does not have this system, which is why the normal online mode is not particularly popular among fans. The Twitch streamer wants to encourage the modding community with his reward to implement rollback netcode for the game.
This would make the game more durable in the future as one could have a decent experience online without attending an offline tournament. Rollback netcode would not make the game popular again now, but it would be a way to better maintain the community. Currently, fans of the game often use the application Parsec to simulate local play online.
Maximilian Dood has already helped with a major mod
Maximilian Dood has already shown in the past what a big fan he is of the Marvel vs. Capcom series. The latest installment, Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, was rather unpopular among fans, but in 2024 the mod project Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite and Beyond started. He collaborated with several modders to visually change the game but also to implement new modes and balance updates (via RollingStone).
Previously, in 2023, he offered $5,000 to modders who could implement the possibility of adding new characters as slots in the character selection of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (via eventhubs.com).
