Grim Dawn is the ARPG on Steam for players who enjoy playing offline and place little emphasis on seasons and the ladder. The game is set to receive a new expansion this year, and it’s expected to be massive.
What kind of game is Grim Dawn? In 2016, the ARPG “Grim Dawn” was released by the developer studio Crate Entertainment. The game represents a classic ARPG, featuring its own story, various classes, and the ability to develop intricate builds.
What’s interesting about the game is its approach to filling the genre, as it does not rely on a ladder, which eliminates the need to create a new character every season. Thus, seasons do not exist; instead, there are DLCs that expand the story, introduce new items for builds, and present new bosses.
Even today, the “offline” ARPG stands strong with a 93% rating on Steam and the label “very positive” – many refer to the game as the competitor to Diablo. A new DLC is set to be released, and it represents the largest content update from the developers so far.

What will the DLC contain? The upcoming expansion is called “Fangs of Asterkarn,” and it is expected to bring a plethora of new content to the game. In a developer update, the developers shared small details about the current status of the DLC. They discussed new details (source: forums.crateentertainment.com).
One of the most interesting aspects of the DLC is its size concerning accessible locations. It is said that it will surpass all previous DLCs and have an approximate size of 3.55 km². To fill this area, 54 new bosses will be ready to challenge you.
There will also be no shortage of items, as the developers have created over 380 new ones with which you can expand or refine your builds. For story fans, there will be plenty of content, as there will be 47 new main and side quests, and this number is expected to increase over time as the developers continue to polish the expansion.
When does the DLC launch? Initially, the DLC was set to be released in 2024, but the release date was chosen generously, considering the extent of the expansion. For this reason, the developers have moved the release to fall/winter 2025. So you still have a little while to wait before you can test the DLC. In the meantime, we recommend the following ARPG if you’re looking for an alternative: Players rave about Last Epoch on Steam, but they are sure: Path of Exile 2 should not be like that

The endgame of Dune: Awakening is currently causing discussions within the community. Especially PvE fans feel disadvantaged, while the controversial Landsraad system is also under criticism. Now the developers are speaking up with concrete plans.
What is being criticized?
A large part of the endgame in Dune: Awakening takes place in the Deep Desert. There, players collect the Spice, the most important resource in the world, which is necessary for various things.
The current PvP focus is strongly on aerial combat in this area. Solo players have a hard time here, as those traveling alone often have little chance against organized groups or large guilds.
In a message on the website for Dune: Awakening, Creative Director Joel Bylos is addressing the community now and reporting on the plans for PvE and PvP content. The goal is for PvE players to also experience the endgame and have access to the content.
The Deep Desert will get PvE zones
According to Bylos, they still firmly believe in the vision of the Deep Desert as the centerpiece of the endgame: a location that resets weekly, full of rewards, risks, and variety. It should always be worthwhile to enter “the most dangerous part of the most dangerous planet in the universe.”
What do the developers have planned for PvE fans? PvE players will essentially get their own areas in the Deep Desert where they can farm resources. Bylos specifically writes:
In the near future, some areas of the Deep Desert will be marked as “partial war zones (PvE)” where players can explore testing stations and harvest T6 resources without being exposed to the danger of unwanted conflict. It is important to emphasize that the top gameplay levels are balanced for guilds and groups – so those playing solo will still find it grindy.
Bylos emphasizes that important hotspots, such as Landsraad control points, shipwrecks, and the largest spice fields within this area of the Deep Desert will remain marked as “Assassins’ War (PvP)” and thus as areas with high risk but also with high rewards.
Furthermore, the Creative Director explains that PvP is only supposed to happen if all parties want to fight over the location. Players should always be able to retreat with their collected loot. “Those who are smart and vigilant do not have to fight if they do not want to. Those who flee must interrupt their current task, but it should always be a decision,” he writes.
Additionally, Funcom plans to regularly add endgame content and PvE content. This will be done through free updates and in the form of DLCs and expansions, Bylos writes.

Dune: Awakening: 7 schnelle Tipps, die das Spiel euch nicht verrät
Ornithopters should not dominate battles
Here’s how PvP is being adjusted: Funcom plans to make PvP battles more balanced and is making adjustments accordingly in Dune: Awakening. Ornithopters will always be important for traveling in the desert, but they should not be the dominant force in combat.
Adjustments include:
The speed and agility of scout ornithopters with missile launchers will be reduced
Missiles from scout ornithopters will generate more heat
Boosters will now provide a maximum speed bonus regardless of wings, ensuring that ornithopters with boosters are the fastest vehicles in the game
A new T5 infantry rocket weapon will be introduced to improve the dynamics between vehicles and ground troops
Ornithopters will always be important for traveling in the desert, but they should not be the dominant force in combat
Additionally, there will be changes to mechanics such as respawn times, vehicle storage, hand scanners, and other mechanics that are currently being abused in the Deep Desert
A mechanic that griefers currently exploit is stealing ornithopters from other players when they enter the Deep Desert with them (via Reddit).
Landsraad system as a framework for endgame activities
What is being changed in the Landsraad system? The Landsraad feature is currently the only endgame content that goes beyond pure grinding and does not rely on PvP. You complete weekly tasks to help your house gain supremacy. However, guilds have a massive advantage here and can complete tasks almost directly.
Here’s what Funcom is planning now:
The activities should become more diverse with the expansion of the game world
There should be more dungeons with bosses dropping endgame loot
There should be more quests with specific requirements and more delivery missions with non-stackable components
If there will be raids, there should also be tasks linked to the Landsraad
Essentially, the Landsraad system should serve as a structural framework for all endgame activities
The next Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO is right around the corner. During this, you’ll encounter Furfrou and receive an XP bonus.
What kind of event is this? The Spotlight Hour is a 60-minute event that takes place every week on Tuesday. In addition to a Pokémon that is in focus and appears in very high numbers, there is also a bonus active during the event.
The Spotlight Hour on June 24, 2025, will bring you Furfrou. This Fire-type Pokémon originates from the 1st generation and can evolve into Arcanine. It also has a Hisui form, which, however, cannot be caught during this event.

Spotlight Hour on June 24, 2025 – Start and Bonuses
When does the Spotlight Hour start? As usual, it kicks off at 18:00 with the Spotlight Hour. An hour later, at 19:00, the short event ends.
What bonus is active? If you evolve Pokémon during the event, you will receive double the amount of experience points. It doesn’t matter which monster you evolve: The bonus is active for every evolution you carry out.
If you use a Lucky Egg before your evolutions, you will even receive four times the amount of experience points for each individual evolution.
Can you catch Shiny-Furfrou? Yes. The Shiny variant of Furfrou is also active in the game. If you’re lucky, you can get this variant of Furfrou during the event.
Is the Spotlight Hour worth it? While Arcanine used to be among the best attackers in Pokémon GO, it has since been outpaced by many other monsters. As a Fire-type attacker for your raids, you should rely on other monsters instead.
It’s similar in the battle leagues. Here, neither Furfrou nor Arcanine are suitable. This applies to both the Great, Ultra, and Master Leagues.
The final evolution of Abra, Alakazam, is a strong Psychic-type attacker and is also represented in our list of best attackers in Pokémon GO. If you still need strong monsters here, the Spotlight Hour could be worth it for you.
If you have some evolutions stacked up that you want to conduct, you can optimally utilize the event’s bonus to gain some additional experience points.
The chance of finding a good weapon in Elden Ring: Nightreign is a mix of ambition and a bit of luck. And those who are really fortunate may encounter a weapon in a run that they really shouldn’t leave behind.
Which weapon is being discussed? It is the Grafted Blade Greatsword, a legendary (and therefore quite rare) weapon that one can stumble upon randomly in a run in Nightreign. It is a colossal sword that can deal significant damage, but in this case, that is rather secondary.
Because players who have come into possession of the Grafted Blade Greatsword report an unusual experience in Nightreign. The weapon possesses a passive ability that grows stronger over time.
Here you can see the trailer for Elden Ring: Nightreign:

Legendary weapon makes the health bar explode
What makes the weapon so strong? The Grafted Blade Greatsword has the passive ability “Power of Vengeance”. Through this effect, after each defeated enemy, all of the player’s attributes are increased: After each kill, no matter how powerful the opponent is, the player receives +0.5% to their HP; FP, stamina, and damage, as well as +1% damage resistance and resistance to other status effects.
What are players reporting? The Grafted Blade Greatsword is making its rounds in the player community on Reddit in several posts. The user Curanthir showed in a post what his health bar looks like right before the fight against the Nightlord:

He reports how in his run with Wylder, due to his massive HP, he simply became immortal and could smash the bosses into pieces. He also emphasizes that he didn’t even need to use the sword as his main weapon for the effect; it just needs to be one of the 6 weapons in his inventory.
The Grafted Blade Greatsword is indeed a lucky find, as most players report that they have never encountered the weapon even after countless hours.
The passive ability of the Grafted Blade Greatsword is a very effective method to elevate one’s character to the same level as a boss. This can be very useful, as many of the Nightlords are really tough. Another “weapon” that can be really strong is actually not a weapon at all, but an item with a delightful sound. And it also defeats the most powerful bosses: Player defeats the final boss in Elden Ring: Nightreign with a tiny bell and a lot of patience

Borderlands 4 recently held an event where streamers got to play the loot shooter on Twitch. Fans viewed the footage and noted many of the new features that are important for the release.
What was the event about? On June 21, 2025, during the evening hours in Germany, the “Borderlands 4 Fan Fest” took place, featuring various streamers and cosplayers. Gearbox used the event to present a new story trailer for its loot shooter and gave streamers the chance to test the upcoming game.
The event was streamed by the participating streamers on Twitch. Even though they weren’t able to showcase the game for long, fans managed to catch a glimpse of certain details from the preview. Therefore, we will show you what fans could discover from the stream.

Better presentation for your items
The item cards provide an overview of your weapons when you inspect them on the ground or in the menu. Gearbox has ensured a better overview with Borderlands 4 and has redesigned the layout so that you can better grasp the information regarding the effects and statistics.

Weapon components are now listed, which will describe the effect they have on the weapon. Damage, reload time, and other information about your firearm will now be represented with small icons so you can scan the important information more quickly.
Vehicles to explore the open world
A cool new feature is your vehicle in Borderlands 4. While in the predecessor you could call various vehicles at a Catch-a-Ride, you can now activate your new vehicle at any time and zoom off.
This vehicle, resembling a Sparrow from Destiny 1 & 2, can give you a speed boost, fire projectiles, and even launch rockets. So the vehicle is not just meant as a cart – you should be able to shoot people with it as well.
It is still unclear whether you can modify your vehicle, but in the predecessor, fans could at least make cosmetic and minor weapon adjustments to their vehicles – mods would therefore be conceivable.
New pastime: Fishing
A small but new feature in Borderlands 4 is fishing. Yes, every new vault hunter has a grappling hook on their wrist that you can fire to move more mobile through the map. This hook can also be used for fishing.

How extensive the feature is, we can’t say for sure yet, but it has made some streamers smile. It’s clear you can acquire loot with it.
New movement to be more mobile
As already mentioned with fishing, there is now a grappling hook with which you can move more mobile through the map. You can then aim at anchor points and pull yourself to quickly reach higher positions or seek cover quickly. Borderlands is already known for its fast movement, but with the grappling hook, you will be even quicker on your feet. Additionally, there will also be a double jump and the ability to swim.
Mark weapons as junk immediately
Looting can be appealing in Borderlands, except when you also have to mark the new loot in your inventory. Gearbox understood this and, therefore, provided the possibility in Borderlands 4 to collect weapons and items immediately as junk. This way, you won’t have to painstakingly go through everything again to mark it and can sell your junk at a vendor with just a button press.
This is what the new selection looks like (Source: YouTube)
Moxxi’s “Encore” Machine
Farming bosses in Borderlands has always been exhausting – areas had to be reloaded and that consumed a lot of time for players, plus it was counterproductive if you wanted to farm in co-op. With Moxxi’s new machine, this should no longer be a problem.
With some cash (not Eridium, but cash), players can summon their beloved boss enemy as often as possible at this machine, even in co-op. This is very convenient and will save many players time (Source: Reddit).
ECHO-4: A new companion for all situations
If you paid attention to the trailers, you will have noticed a new cute robot. Its name is ECHO-4 and he is the new loyal companion of the vault hunter, who will help you navigate through the open world.
He can hack terminals, scan the environment, mark loot, and show the direct way to the mission. The interesting part is that it’s an optional feature. If you don’t like him or find him annoying, you can turn him off.
Combat Map + Compass
To assist with orientation, there will also be a new feature, namely the ability to play with a compass and a combat map. Fans were concerned that you would only have to play with a compass, but just recently, the CEO of Gearbox, Randy Pitchford (Source: X), confirmed that there will be an option in the settings to have both activated. The combat map is not intended to show outlines of the terrain but rather to act like a radar by marking the position of enemies that are in your vicinity.
In a new video, Marco Risch from Nerdkulturdiscusses the finale of Season 2 of Star Wars: Andor.
Who is Marco Risch? Since 2015, Marco Risch has been focusing on his YouTube channel Nerdkulturwith news, analyses, reviews, and interviews about current films and series.
In addition, he meets weekly with his colleague Yves Arievich and chats on the Podcast Nerd & Kultur about pop culture film topics like Star Wars, Marvel, and DC.
Both the YouTube channel and the podcast are part of the Webedia network, which also includes MeinMMO.
In a new video on YouTube, Marco talks about the final 3 episodes of Season 2 of Andor, the probably best Star Wars series of all time. You can watch the video here:

Marco from Nerdkultur analyzes the finale of Andor Season 2
The Beginning of the Finale Starts with Kleya, Ends with Luthen
What is so special about the start of the last 3 episodes? Marco begins the video with an observation. Episode 10 starts not only with the character Kleya, but it is also not a pure spy thriller. There is, as in the first episode of the series, a subplot that is told through flashbacks. And the most notable feature: Cassian does not appear at all in this episode.
The episode shows what makes good series, according to Marco. You recognize which characters work better than expected and give them more time. With Kleya, this is particularly significant, as it is the first major role of actress Elizabeth Dulau.
Marco makes it clear that Kleya is not just a simple assistant; she is a central part of the operations that Luthen Rael runs in the background. She is the real boss. Like Luthen, she makes important decisions. Marco compares Kleya’s flashback to a Lost episode.
The last 4 episodes also give Luthen more space. He is more than a ruthless character. Marco quotes Stellan Skarsgård, who described his role as empathetic. In the scenes with Luthen, there are also various visual quotes from other films.
Tony Gilroy’s own Jason Bourne series
Brian De Palma’s perspectives in Mission: Impossible
David Fincher’s crime scenes (example being the movie Seven)
The HUD elements of George Lucas
Profiling referring to Jonathan Demme in The Silence of the Lambs
And also from Quentin Tarantino (example being the movie Inglourious Basterds)
Marco compares Luthen’s eventual death to Game of Thrones. In true Game of Thrones fashion, Luthen dies as he killed: for a necessary sacrifice. He sacrificed others. He sacrifices himself. He misses the promised sunrise of the rebellion.
What happens next in the fight rebellion against empire? The real finale begins after that. With a dead stormtrooper, the later fall of the empire is foreshadowed. Before, Gilroy showed the escalation of the empire with the number of these soldiers, now he turns the tables. He shows a single dead body.
Drawing on the legendary Darth Vader scene in Rogue One, there is a version for the rebels in Andor’s Season 2. The droid K-2SO fights against an imperial unit in a hallway scene, even dominating them.
Another important character finds a temporary fate in the finale of Andor Season 2. There is no way back for Dedra. Krennic punishes her for a mistake, ignoring her other actions. Dedra grew up in imperial custody. She ends up in imperial custody.
According to Marco, you can see how fascism destroys itself through Krennic and Mayor Partagaz, as not only the oppressed suffer, but also those who work hardest for it are destroyed. All this in the white room, where action against the rebellion was also taken.
The End of the Series, the Beginning of the End for the Empire
The camera shows how the rebellion progresses. With the empire, the camera remains calm. With the oppressed, it is hectic and wild, but with the rebels it is in constant motion. This shows how the rebellion continues to move. If there is a brief conflict, that is also represented by the camera.
In the finale, not only is Cassian’s fate in Rogue One hinted at, but also his initial motivation, his sister, is brought up again. Here, however, Marco emphasizes that her absence is more important to the authors than her appearance. An forever unresolved issue.
This shows why Cassian develops as he does. He has a drive to help people because the desire to find his sister triggers exactly that.
The monster of the next Community Day in Pokémon GO has been hinted at. And it could become a really good attacker.
What kind of event is this? The Community Day is a monthly event where a monster is in the spotlight and appears in very high numbers with an increased shiny chance over a period of 3 hours. Other bonuses, such as an exclusive move, are also part of the event.
After the Community Day with Miniras took place last weekend, there is already information regarding the monster for the Community Day in July. And this could be significantly strengthened by the event.

Short video of a small duck
Which Pokémon is it? On the official account of Pokémon GO on X, a short video was posted. In the clip, the legs can be seen, and the call of a monster can be heard.
If you look closely at the legs, it becomes clear that the monster is Kwaks. This monster is a Water-type Pokémon and one of the starter monsters from Generation 9. It can evolve into Fuentente and then into Bailonda.
When does the event take place? Even before the current season, some dates were announced. From these, it is evident that the Community Day with Kwaks will take place on July 20, 2025. Typically, the event occurs on the designated days from 14:00 to 17:00.
What makes the monster strong? Pokémon having a Community Day receive exclusive moves that they can learn, except through the use of rare Top TMs. According to current information on Leekduck, Bailonda will be able to learn the strong Charged Move Hydro Cannon during the event.
Additionally, Bailonda is expected to learn the Charged Move Wave Dance when the event starts. This fits, as it is also the special move of Bailonda in the main games of the series.
With these moves, Bailonda could become a strong Water attacker that can strengthen your teams. Corresponding comments can also be found on Reddit:
“This will be the best water starter attacker, right? Especially in the Crypto variant,” writes EmptyRook
“At the moment yes, but Inteleon should surpass it next year,” replies CapnCal to the previous comment
“Best regular water attacker and as a Crypto monster right behind Kyogre and the Mega Pokémon,” adds OriginPyro_
Next weekend, the big GO Fest 2025 will take place in Pokémon GO. It is the biggest event of the year, bringing you some content. This week, another event prepares you, which brings you 6 legendary monsters.

Jasmium Crystals are one of the most important resources in Dune: Awakening. MeinMMO reveals where you can best farm the crystals.
Where can I find Jasmium Crystals? You can find the associated crystal deposits only in Sheol, a radiated area in the southwest of the Hagga Basin. It is best to approach with an Ornithopter from the air. Aim for the mountain formations in the zone, where you
won’t expect any enemies and
there are radiated water basins.
Jasmium Crystals tend to be located exactly in these radiated water basins.
You should approach Sheol from the air and keep an eye on your radiation indicator.
What do I need to consider in Sheol? You cannot just approach the zone and start farming; you need to prepare. Due to the radiation in the region, you need at least a radiation suit Type 4, preferably Type 5. Iodine tablets can also help.
Also, make sure to get a cutter that can cut Jasmium, meaning at least an industrial cutter Type 4. Additionally, your Ornithopter should provide extra storage so that you can bring back as many crystals as possible from your trip to the dangerous zone.
Colleague Cedric Holmeier has made a nice video on the topic on his channel RoyalBlue Civlov on YouTube, taking you on a Jasmium farming round:

What do I need Jasmium for? If you combine 4 Jasmium with some water and an aluminium bar at least at a medium-sized ore refinery, you will get Duraluminium bars. These bars are needed for almost all Tier 5 recipes, whether you want to craft equipment, machines, tools, or vehicles, both land and air.
In other words: You will have to farm a whole lot of Jasmium.

The 1-button feature in World of Warcraft has been outdone by the community. Blizzard had to intervene immediately and put a stop to it.
A bit of mockery and scorn has been directed at World of Warcraft since the “One-Button Assistant” was introduced. Those who want to, only need to press a single button and no longer need to learn rotations in the game, yet can still achieve “solid” performance.
An interface addon took this as an example – and significantly outperformed Blizzard’s feature in terms of capability.
Start video
WoW mal so richtig ehrlich erklärt
What happened? Just a few hours after the release of patch 11.1.7, a new WeakAura was circulating that was based on the addon Hekili.
Hekili is a so-called “rotation helper” designed to assist with using the right abilities in the right situation.
WeakAuras, on the other hand, is a powerful interface addon that has immense potential. From displaying individual buffs to various calculations, much is possible with it.
The aforementioned WeakAura essentially created macros in World of Warcraft in real-time, based on the current status of the fight. The WeakAura checked which abilities and buffs were currently active and generated the logical next ability, which was written into the macro to be pressed.
In the game, this meant that you only had to keep pressing the same button to achieve (roughly) the best performance.
Why was this a problem? The “1-button feature” that World of Warcraft officially has in the game is meant to provide assistance to newcomers and individuals with disabilities. It aims to enable a “solid performance” in PvE but is not intended to be outstanding. At the same time, it can help focus on other things. Those who don’t have to worry about their own rotation can perhaps learn to be more active with abilities like interrupts or their own positioning.
However, a problem arises when the 1-button feature is taken over by addons and operates without the built-in penalty on global cooldown or adds even more calculations. Because then, even at a very high level, one could play WoW with just a single button.
What has Blizzard changed? Just a few hours after the addon-WeakAura combination became known, Blizzard intervened and destroyed the functionality. The addon now seems to no longer have the ability to write and edit macros during an ongoing fight.
This was likely just a bug, as addons should not have this functionality to write macros during an active fight.
Stronger than the pros with just one button – Blizzard had to intervene.
Community mocks: This is how you lose your addons even faster
This is how the community discusses it: Among the players, this incident is met with mixed feelings. Some argue that they simply took the feature provided by Blizzard and improved it – that shouldn’t be a crime. Others find it absurd that yet again a feature meant for accessibility has been tarnished by addons.
In the long term, Blizzard plans to ban many interface addons in WoW or limit their functions. Due to incidents like this, some believe that this time will come sooner rather than later. On wowhead, this discussion goes like this:
„Thank the Lord. Imagine if such a WeakAura became mandatory in tryhard raid groups. “What? You still play your rotation yourself? Kick immediately because you are intentionally playing worse.” That sounds completely brain-dead and boring.” – Nerdelbaum
Even more clearly stated is Menedude, who is certain that such a feature would not benefit the game:
I understand that the 1-button assistant serves as an accessibility feature, but it should never replace your actual rotation. I have never agreed when people said that WoW is “getting dumber” since people were already complaining about it in The Burning Crusade. But a 1-button rotation that is THE perfect way to play the game would actually make the game “dumber”. If you really want to play such a 1-button game, then download one of those idle games on your phone or something.– Menedude
Even though there are comments bringing up the typical – and somewhat rusty – “Fun Detected” meme, the majority of the community is aware that Blizzard had to intervene quickly here. However, since it is technically a bug fix, the outrage is likely to be limited. There are also macros that have some pretty cool effects – like significantly improving the graphics of WoW.

In early 2025, Blizzard introduced new Loot Goblins to Diablo 4, which can drop various items similar to their counterparts from Diablo 3. However, one of them, Fedric, has yet to be seen by almost anyone: Players now say he might be the rarest enemy in gaming history.
What kind of enemies are they, anyway?
Loot Goblins are commonly known enemies in Diablo. With their greedy giggles, they can be easily spotted, and you can find them somewhere collecting loot.
Unlike almost all other enemies in Diablo, Goblins do not fight, but flee – usually through a pile of other foes. If you defeat them, they (usually) drop valuable loot.
In March 2025, Blizzard introduced 6 new Goblins to Diablo 4 during an event, each carrying special loot. Only one of them is more of a myth.
Which Goblin is so rare? While his siblings drop plenty of gold, gem fragments, crafting materials, or oboluses, Fancy Old Fedric is guaranteed to have a Splendid Spark and a mythical item with him.
Fedric has the same color as Mythics, so purple-pink, and is among the rare Goblins the most elusive. Over the past months, there have been continuous questions from the community about whether anyone has ever seen the Goblin.
Some claim that other players have defeated him on their servers and posted their loot bags as evidence. Another says he saw him, but he escaped. Since then, he has not played again.
However, users do not provide their own images. In a recent thread, users are even sure that no enemy has ever been as rare as Fedric. One even states: Whoever claims to have seen him is probably confusing the Goblin with the similarly looking Murl.

“The Goblin is not meant for the Mythics, even if he drops them”
Users on Reddit suspect it to be a mount. However, according to the description, he is said to have a “strange dog.” So, you likely will find a companion rather than a mount if you can kill him.
Many users wish for a bit more content surrounding the Goblins. Diablo 3 handled this quite well by allowing players the chance to invade the realm of Goblins and kill Greed as a special boss. Such a secret location is still missing in Diablo 4. However, players have apparently gotten a good bit closer to the Cow Level: “Whoever figured this out must have 5000 IQ” – Players find new clues about the Cow Level in Diablo 4

A player buys a new graphics card but cannot install it in their computer. The community explains to him that he first needs to remove the protection.
A player reports on Reddit that he bought a new graphics card, an RTX 5070 from Nvidia. In his post, he explains in detail that he has a problem: the graphics card does not fit into the designated PCIe slot on his motherboard.
He posts two pictures showing his graphics card and his motherboard. But the community immediately knows where the problem lies.

The slot of the graphics card is not too wide, but only protected by a plastic part
What is the user’s problem? The user explains that the PCIe slot of his graphics card is too thick and therefore does not fit in the slot. But the slot of the graphics card is not too wide; it is only protected by a plastic part. The effort to remove this part is minimal. However, the user did not notice this. Accordingly, the community is quite amused.
Some community members affectionately describe this protection on Reddit as “PCIe condom.” This plastic part is supposed to protect the PCIe connection of the graphics card during transport and prevent damage. The user himself finds the whole thing quite embarrassing, as he notes in a post:
This whole project really showed me how stupid I am. Thank you
How does the community react? They are surprisingly gracious this time and explain that such a mistake can happen to anyone. Another person points out to him that he should properly connect the HDMI cable next. A mistake that happens again and again in the community.
And one user has one more tip: the player should also insert his M.2 SSD into the upper M.2 slot, as the lower one is likely limited to “PCIe Gen 3” and would therefore be significantly slower than possible.
Patch 11.2 is the final, major content update for World of Warcraft: The War Within. MeinMMO has compiled all the important details about the new patch.
Although Patch 11.1.7 has just gone live, Blizzard is already working hard on the next major content update for World of Warcraft. To ensure that you are perfectly prepared for the release of “Ghosts of K’aresh”, we have gathered all the important information regarding the patch for you.
Note: The article will be regularly updated as new information about Patch 11.2 becomes available. Currently, the article is up to date as of June 23, 2025.

The most important points at a glance:
There is still no release date for Patch 11.2, but mid-August is likely.
Patch 11.2 is the last major content patch of The War Within, followed by smaller updates 11.2.5 and 11.2.7.

There is a new dungeon, Biocap Al’dani.
There is a new raid, Manaforge Omega, with the Voidlord Dimensius as the final boss.

With Patch 11.2, the 3rd season of The War Within also begins.
When will Patch 11.2 be released? Blizzard has not yet announced a fixed release date for Patch 11.2. However, World of Warcraft reliably releases a new patch approximately every 8 weeks. If this rhythm continues, Patch 11.2 is expected to launch around mid-August 2025.

What is Patch 11.2 about?
Story spoilers: This section discusses the story of Patch 11.2.
After the Heart of Darkness was stolen from Xal’atath’s claws by the Ascendants, we travel to K’aresh to prevent the Ascendants from completing their ritual. They aim to summon the Voidlord Dimensius, who would undoubtedly devour Azeroth afterward.
This necessity also leads to unexpected alliances. For Xal’atath is now our ally and even grants us access to parts of her powers. She enchants the cloak and stands by us in the battle against Dimensius.
Alleria – as well as many others – are skeptical about trusting Xal’atath. However, it seems that Xal’atath does not intend to summon Dimensius. She has likely dropped the title “Herald of Dimensius” and is now pursuing her own agenda.
Rishii Wraps – The new artifact cloak
Very early in the story of Patch 11.2, you will receive the “Rishii Wraps” – an artifact cloak. You will upgrade this over time so that it becomes stronger and grants you more abilities.
The most important ability is “Phase Diving”, allowing you to switch between the normal world and an astral plane. In the astral plane, you will see different enemies and secrets than in the physical world. You can also use new types of movement, such as a network of energy – this will also get you into the Manaforge, which will later be the raid.
The cloak will be upgraded multiple times – but also offers interesting effects.
New raid: Manaforge Omega
The Manaforges from “The Burning Crusade” are back – well, at least in part. Here, the shadow guardians (a faction of the Ascendants) are in the process of resurrecting Dimensius.
Overall, the raid consists of 8 bosses, with “Dimensius the All-Consuming” being the final adversary. Among these 8 encounters, there is also one that is entirely optional. A triumvirate of demon hunters will stand in the heroes’ way – at least if you want to visit them.
As in the liberation of Lorenhall, there will again be a glory path in the Manaforge Omega, where you will automatically unlock various amenities in the raid, such as vendors or damage buffs over time.
The biocaps are coming back – just like the manaforges.
Season 3 of The War Within
With Patch 11.2, the third season of The War Within also begins. This means not only a new raid and new PvP rankings but also a new pool of dungeons that you can play in “Mythic+”. The 8 dungeons of this season are:
Aside from the major highlights, Patch 11.2 also brings a number of minor details. For instance, roleplay fans will receive a new emote that looks pretty cool on Pandaren. Additionally, there are a number of small improvements, including:
Depths now indicate on the world map which variant is active.
Patch 11.2 includes a permanent enhancement rune.
A new potion allows all characters to use the Night Elf ability “Shadowmimic”, aiming to create more fairness in dungeons.
Nexus Princess Ky’veza is the new depth final boss in Season 3.
Dungeons now have clear “checkpoints” in the form of large stones, indicating where you will appear when releasing your spirit.
What content from Patch 11.2 are you most looking forward to? Or have you already set your sights on the next expansion, Midnight, and are wondering how Patch 11.2 will impact the next addon?

The Walking Dead is one of the most popular zombie series of all time, which now consists of several spin-offs. Above all, the deaths of many characters fascinated viewers. But one event would even reverse the great villain of the series.
Since its launch in 2010, The Walking Dead has not only become a popular series but a major franchise. There are now 7 spin-offs:
The Walking Dead ran for 11 seasons from 2010 to 2022
Fear the Walking Dead ran for 8 seasons from 2015 to 2023
World Beyond ran for 2 seasons from 2020 to 2021
Tales of the Walking Dead ran for 1 season from 2022 to 2023
Dead City started in 2023, has had 2 seasons so far
Daryl Dixon started in 2023, has had 2 seasons so far
The Ones Who Live for 1 season in 2024
Some of these spin-offs deal with supporting characters from the main series. Among them is also Dead City, which focuses on Negan, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Maggie, played by Lauren Cohan.
Negan is one of the most famous villains of the series because he was responsible for the deaths of some fan favorites right from his first appearance. But he would change one today.

Would have made both our lives easier
What does Jeffrey Dean Morgan say about it? In a video from First We Feast on YouTube, Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan answered some questions about the franchise and their characters. Right at the beginning, Morgan is supposed to name a storyline from the series that should never have happened.
After some deliberation and joking that the showrunner is watching, he names the death of the character Glenn Rhee, played by Steven Yeun. He explains that it would have made the lives of both actors easier. Although it would have changed the story, Cohan’s character would not have hated Negan so much. Morgan emphasizes that he probably would have died some other way.
What happens with Glenn’s death? The first episode of season 7 (The Day Will Come), which premiered in October 2016, follows a strong cliffhanger. In the finale of season 6, it is hinted that someone from the hero group dies, but it is not clear who. The premiere of season 7 then shows how the villain Negan kills. This was also shown quite explicitly and for a long time.
How was the episode received by fans? The episode itself is rated quite well. On IMDb, the episode is among the highest-rated of the series. However, some do not see Glenn’s death as positively. Under a post on x.com, some users write that the series went downhill after this death.
Also on Reddit there are posts that make such a thesis.
What does MeinMMO editor Nikolas Hernes say about it? I was a big fan of The Walking Dead, but from season 8 on, the series lost me too. But I don’t think Glenn would have changed anything.
The Walking Dead worked mainly through the drama and the constant threat that beloved characters could die. However, that becomes tiring over time, especially with a series that runs for so long. Many subplots simply became unexciting. One became saturated with zombies and drama.
A French regional broadcaster wanted to know how well ChatGPT performs in a high school exam. A teacher was supposed to review the essay in the end. However, the result is far from positive.
Who tested whom?France 3 Hauts-de-France, a French regional broadcaster from France 3 and France Télévisions, wanted to find out how well ChatGPT performs in a real exam. For this reason, the regional broadcaster had ChatGPT write a high school assignment and have it reviewed by a philosophy teacher from Amiens. They used an original exam that students also had to solve.
The teacher who was supposed to review the task was aware that the paper was written by an AI. The topic: “Is the truth always convincing?” The prompt to the AI was to write as a student would, but with the goal of achieving the best possible grade. Furthermore, it was to suggest an introduction, a development, and a conclusion.
However, the judgment of the philosophy teacher is clear: the essay is worth 8/20 and is overall quite difficult to assess. The text has to contend with several problems.

“We have created a monster” – A Spanish model earns up to 10,000 euros a month, yet she is not real
Good structure, but lacking depth in the analysis
What does the AI’s essay look like? Basically, the AI adheres to the requirements of the regional broadcaster: it starts the essay like a student with an introduction and raises certain questions at the beginning. The entire piece is well-structured, clear, and error-free.
The teacher not only gave a grade but also analyzed the work and identified several problems. While the work is perfectly written, it has several shortcomings, including a “too academic” aspect. ChatGPT clearly highlights the outline instead of integrating it into the structure. This creates a series of points.
Moreover, while ChatGPT showed a coherent argumentative structure, the result lacked depth in the analysis and failed to provide any new or original perspectives on the topic.
Another problem with the work: the AI slightly altered the topic of the essay: from the original topic “Is the truth always convincing?” it became for the AI “Is the truth enough to convince?”
Seductive offer, but unmet expectations
Basically, the regional broadcaster explains that while the AI’s result is seductive, the final result did not meet the expectations that one would have for a real high school graduate:
The artificial intelligence has roughly grasped the task’s topic, but its final result does not meet the expectations of a high school graduate. Even if its result is seductive.
However, the magazine also emphasized that the assessment of the work was likely distorted by the teacher’s awareness that the work came from an artificial intelligence.
In addition: the work would ultimately have turned out better or worse if a different prompt had been used or if another AI had been asked for help.
The developers of Fantastic Pixel Castle have introduced the first class of their MMORPG “Ghost”. MeinMMO summarizes what is known about the Dreamblade.
What do I need to know about the Dreamblade? First, note that the “Ghost” project is still in a very early stage of development. Accordingly, much can still change before the final release. Nevertheless, it is exciting to see what class designs the team of former WoW lead Greg “Ghostcrawler” Street wants to focus on.
The Dreamblade is an offensive melee fighter who wears heavy armor and can deal devastating damage with magic and his massive two-handed sword. This archetype is akin to a knight of the round table, an elite warrior of the “ever-sleeping” queen of the Emerald Court.
The responsible developer Brian Holinka (you might already know him from his time at Blizzard, World of Warcraft) was inspired by a trailer for Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle (found on YouTube), in which the impressive antagonist (the Aspiring Lord) fights against the three heroes with his two-handed sword.
The template for the Dreamblade: the Aspiring Lord from ESO.
One of the features of the Dreamblade: The class falls into a magical sleep to train. This allows them to invest more hours in improving their combat techniques than others, and that without physically exhausting themselves.
In the freshly released trailer for the Dreamblade, the developers present the current skills of the knight:
Sleepless Strikes: A sequence of attacks that deal high damage with a final overhead strike.
Intimidate: You sow doubt in the minds of your enemies, causing damage and boosting your passive mana regeneration.
Gladecarver: A swing of the sword that hits nearby enemies multiple times.
Decimate: An attack that has a chance to reset the cooldown of Gladecarver.
Rude Awakening: An attack that deals increased damage to incapacitated enemies.
Reverie: Incapacitates targets with a sleep spell.
Oath Keeper: The ultimate ability of the class damages all nearby enemies and enhances the character with increased mana regeneration; Decimate now safely resets Gladecarver.
You can watch the trailer for the Dreamblade here:

Ghost: Neuer Trailer stellt Klasse der Dreamblade vor
At the end of the trailer, the developers announce a deep dive stream for the Dreamblade class on June 27, 2025.
Old-school combat system, but modern
What does Ghost use for a class and combat system? In Ghost, there are supposed to be the usual roles such as tanks, healers, and damage dealers, but with some special features. In advance, rough ideas like the gunner, a gunsmoke ronin, a gatling gunner, or an axe thrower have already been presented – but without specific concepts.
The combat system is expected to land somewhere between New World and Black Desert on one hand and WoW and Final Fantasy XIV on the other hand – with the tendency, according to Brian Holinka, currently leaning more towards a tab-targeting system with relatively few abilities, which should still feel quite action-packed and dynamic.
All classes are expected to have access to sprint skills and active counter maneuvers that need to be used at the right moment. The perspective is supposed to be third-person, like in WoW and similar games.
If you would like to take a first look at the current prototype of “Ghost”, you can do so! However, note that this is a very early version consisting of placeholders. The actual assets still need to be developed: Former WoW lead shows his new MMORPG after just 4 months of development

A decision in Baldur’s Gate 3 can give you a solid bonus, but it is only available to one character. And for that, he must admit that he learned nothing from his past.
Which character is being referred to? It is the team’s wizard – Gale, who seems willing to allow foreign magic into his body. His constant and slightly reckless ambition has already made him what he is now. A ticking, hungry time bomb.
A rare scene in Baldur’s Gate 3, which can only be experienced with Gale, again puts the wizard’s ambition to the test. Because it lures with a strong bonus that can be obtained with the “right” decision for Gale.
Here you see the animated short film for Patch 8 of Baldur’s Gate 3:

A strong reward for a small price
What happens in the scene? The scene with Gale can only be triggered in the second act of Baldur’s Gate 3 in the Shadow-Cursed Lands. There, you encounter three somewhat grotesque-looking personalities: Gerringothe, Thisobald, and Malus Thorm, the three Thorm siblings, who can become a significant challenge without a charismatic speaker.
If you defeat them and examine them with Gale, he notices that their bodies were corrupted by shadow magic. A player discovered this and shared his experience on Reddit.
When Gale examines the body of Malus Thorm and perceives this dark magic, he is faced with the choice to dissolve the magic before it spreads – or to absorb it into himself. No saving throw or similar is required; it’s purely a decision.
You can see the scene here on YouTube:

What bonus can Gale receive? If Gale absorbs the shadow magic, he receives a permanent extra level 3 spell slot as a bonus, which is separate from his other spell slots for shadow magic and recharges after each long rest.
However, it seems that dark magic changes Gale. His face briefly becomes dark, and the narrator shows what his pursuit of even more power could mean for him:
Shadow magic flows through your body. Where you once felt the light of Mystra, there is now only darkness. Is this the presence of shadow magic or a darkness that was within you all along, waiting to be called upon?
Gale not only has an exciting backstory and many possibilities for how his story could develop during a playthrough, he can also potentially become a significant danger to the group. At the same time, he is also the one most frequently chosen for an Origin campaign among all Origin characters, as a statistic from Larian shows: Baldur’s Gate 3: The most popular origin character is often also the reason why you die

The developers of Star Citizen have released Alpha 4.2 in the live environment of the SciFi MMO. You can expect exciting new content, Launcher 2.0, but unfortunately also some fresh issues.
What is the highlight of Alpha 4.2? The developers introduce a new activity called ‘Storm Breaker’ for the persistent sandbox universe. In light of the current rain crisis, you are to explore a seemingly abandoned Lazarus facility on Pyro 1 to uncover what the ASD has secretly been up to there.
You can transport items from inside the station to the shuttle areas using cargo elevators. But keep your weapons ready: A huge sandworm (Dune: Awakening says hello) is already waiting for your group. A new trailer prepares you for ‘Storm Breaker’:

What else does Update 4.2 bring? With radiation comes a new environmental hazard in the universe of Star Citizen. Anyone wanting to enter radiated areas needs special equipment. Characters who ignore safety warnings and, for example, come into contact with radiated objects or animals without protection can suffer injuries or even die.
Additionally, the new Alpha update includes:
New ships and vehicles for the Wikelo Emporium – Perform a series of favors for this faction to unlock them.
Adjustments on Pyro IV (higher temperature, larger cloud formations)
Adjustments for equipment switching to ensure more comfort when acquiring new gear.
All medical tables now protect players from damage for a short time after respawning.
The processing speed of the refinery has been increased for all types, and full orders can now be loaded onto cargo ships.
Introduction of dynamic rain in various zones.
The missions of the bounty hunter guild have been updated.
The number of Kopions in the acid caves has been slightly increased.
4 new hairstyles.
Update 2.0 for the Star Citizen launcher.
Many more innovations and adjustments for technology, vehicles, weapons, and more.
What does the community say about the new update? Under the trailer on YouTube, many players are excited about the new rainy adventure and the raid-like fight against the sandworm. Demetrius_Ambrose writes, for example: ‘I live in a reality where one of the things I look forward to the most is a rainstorm in a computer space game.’
On other community platforms, some problems that have come with Patch 4.2 are currently being discussed. In a post by mercenarri on Reddit, for instance, the topic is ships that are currently much more difficult to control. In the discussion about the patch notes on Reddit, players are discussing ship components that have disappeared from their inventory.
Since this is still an alpha, such problems are to be expected when a new patch comes out. Keep that in mind when purchasing a version of Star Citizen to play the SciFi MMO right now.
A Chinese Soulslike generated excitement and praise from players last year. Currently, those who were previously skeptical can strike at the lowest price yet on Steam.
What game is it? Black Myth: Wukong was released in 2024. This action RPG shares some aspects with the Souls games from FromSoftware but possesses its own identity thanks to the protagonist.
You control a monkey based on the Monkey King from Chinese mythology. The game’s plot is generally inspired by the novel “Journey to the West.” This book is a classic of Chinese literature and has served as a template for other works of pop culture—such as Dragon Ball.
Black Myth: Wukong is also brutally difficult and offers a variety of different bosses. The concept had already impressed many players before its release. Wukong was at that time the most requested game on Steam and peaked at over 2.4 million simultaneous players according to steam.db .
Currently, Black Myth: Wukong is available on Steam for the lowest price ever.

How much does the game cost currently? Until June 26, 2025, Black Myth: Wukong is available on Steam at a 20% discount. This is the cheapest the title has been since its release on August 20, 2024.
Those who were previously discouraged by the full price of €59.99 might now consider giving the game a chance. After all, the game is quite challenging and may not be for everyone. The focus on boss battles might not appeal to everyone either.
On the other hand, users on Steam are very pleased. They give the game a rating of a solid 96%. This results in the designation “Very Positive.” In their reviews, players summarize what makes the title so good:
“The best game I have ever played in my life. I am now 28 and haven’t been this excited about a video game since GTA V came out in 2012. Every single moment in this game (especially the boss fights) feels like the most epic episodes of a really, really good anime,” writes Don Giovanni.
“I have spent 153 hours with the game and it still impresses me every time I play through it,” reports Cope.
“Great graphics, the bosses were tricky but not absurdly hard,” summarizes Lt. Biryani.
“If Elden Ring is the ultimate open-world challenge and God of War a living cinematic myth, then Black Myth: Wukong lies right between and combines crisp, stylish combat with a rich mythological narrative,” says The Bosmer Overdrive.

On June 23, the Arbites DLC for the co-op shooter Warhammer 40,000: Darktide will be released. Fatshark is releasing premium content for the game for the first time. MeinMMO provides you with all the info on the new content.
The key information about the DLC summarized:
The Arbites DLC will be released on June 23 at 16:00 German time for all platforms (Steam, Game Pass, Xbox, PS5).
You can find the DLC directly in your platform’s shop. The standard edition costs 11.99 euros, the deluxe edition 18.99 euros.
Additionally, Arbitrators use shotguns, grenades, buffs, and especially group control. Your role in a group is primarily to tank, stun enemies, and protect your group. Unlike the Ogryn, you are not just a meat shield; you use abilities to control enemies. If you purchase the deluxe edition, you will also receive:
a unique outfit for you that vaguely resembles the sci-fi version of a hoplite
a fully mechanized skin for your cyber dog
a portrait frame
4 weapon skins for the Arbites shock baton, the Arbites shotgun, the pistol, and the shield
The DLC class is fully compatible with all other content in the game. You do not need to own the DLC to play with other players, and there are no content pieces that you can only see with the DLC – except for the new class.

Everything new on the Mourningstar
The free update, which will be released at the same time, is likely to be more interesting for many players. Many important game features are getting an overhaul aimed at making the entry easier and the story more understandable. The free update is the real star of the DLC.
The main new feature is a campaign. Instead of playing missions loosely, you now have the opportunity to complete multiple missions linearly with cinematics and “debriefings” after the assignments. This will give you more story about the characters and the Mourningstar, the void ship from which you start. Players with characters above level 10 can skip the campaign if they wish.
During the campaign, you will unlock new features gradually embedded into the story, rather than unlocking everything through levels as before. The missions themselves have also been revised:
All missions now have all difficulties available for selection, giving you more missions to choose from
You unlock higher difficulties by mastering lower difficulties (i.e., winning often enough) – defeats slightly reset your progress
In the Mortis Trials, there are a few hidden messages that explain backgrounds about the ship and the shipmistress Sefoni
With the new update “Battle for Tertium,” Warhammer 40,000: Darktide will become even better for newcomers and bring exciting new features even for veterans. If you want to check out the game, now is the ideal time – even if you are not familiar with the world at all. Because Darktide is one of the best games to get into the world of Warhammer.
