Life is Feudal offers a challenging gaming experience. Casual gamers will likely struggle with many hurdles. The developers now explain in a video how to survive the first five hours of gameplay.
The survival MMORPG Life is Feudal takes place in the Middle Ages, known for its harsh conditions. You will quickly experience this in the game, as dangers lurk everywhere that can cost you your virtual life. You don’t start as a shining knight in plate armor with a two-handed sword, but rather dressed in nothing more than pants in the middle of the wilderness.
A not-so-simple start
You should spend the first hour familiarizing yourself with the controls and exploring the area. Next, you should build a camp and start a campfire here. Because over this, you roast slain animals, which keeps you fit. The fire also provides warmth.
For the campfire, gather dry branches and find a safe spot. Fruits and berries will sustain you until you can build tools and weapons to go hunting. With branches, plant fibers, and stones, you will craft your first tools and weapons.
In the third hour, you should set out to find other players. Because only together can you achieve more. For example, build houses that better protect you. In a community, it is also possible to distribute tasks, allowing you to progress more effectively. Some players will farm to provide food, others will hunt, while others will gather resources or craft tools. Some may prefer to become warriors and protect the community.
From a small camp to a large city
Your group will grow over time. New players will find their way to you. The small farm will grow into a village and ultimately into a city. But be careful!
Not all players will be benevolent, and you should be careful not to trust anyone too much. Because it might very well be that while farming, you suddenly have an axe in your back. The first five hours of Life is Feudal are therefore not easy to master, but the further you progress, the more you will be able to achieve in the medieval world. The developers show you more about the start in a video.

Your story begins in the ruins of a fallen kingdom. Weakly, you remember a ceremony where you pledged your word to join the elite fighters called “Absolvers”. The task of these fighters is to maintain stability in the world. However, your path from prospect to Absolver is long and rocky.
In gripping battles, you will test your martial arts skills against other players. Each encounter with players is supposed to be different because you never know what your opponent is planning. Fights to the death are not uncommon. You can also ally with others, exchange weapons, or teach each other new attacks.
Teammates can help you in upcoming trials. In ritual combat arenas, you can compete either solo or as a team in ranked matches. In these fights, you must demonstrate concentration and skill to pass the tough trials.
Gameplay: The gameplay system is based on many combat tactics. You can choose from four different fighting stances that determine your position relative to the opponent. This allows for intense real-time melee combat, offering endless, fluid combos.
During your adventures, you will visit various martial arts schools where you can learn tactical moves and unique attacks. Decide on your fighting style, choose a weapon, and modify the attack set in the combat deck. This allows you to fight in your own unique style. The video provides insights into the gameplay, commented by the developers.

Just last month, there were closed alpha tests with community members. The goal was to stress test the servers. If you found interest in Absolver through the game description and the shown gameplay scenes, you can now look forward to the open beta.
On the official website of Sloclap, the developers announced an open beta phase. You can register on the website. Although the title says “Closed Beta”, the developers explicitly mention in the announcement an “open beta phase”. Here is the link to register for the Absolver Beta on Sloclap.com
Absolver is set to be released first for PS4 and PC. For Xbox One, it is planned for “later”. Currently, we do not know which platforms the beta registration will run on.

Groundbreaking innovations do not come with patch 3.57; these are reserved for Stormblood. However, what comes with the last patch from version 3: Improvements for the existing content. No one wants to grind through the old stuff after the upcoming release of the new expansion, so the developers at Square Enix have lifted some restrictions and adjusted the numbers for loot and crafting:
Weekly limits for tokens and loot for the instance Dun Scaith have been lifted
All items required for crafting Anima weapons are now easier to obtain
The weekly restriction for “alexandrian gears” from “Alexander – the Creator’s Soul” has been lifted.
In the epic version of “Alexander – The Creator”, the effect of the power of Transcendence has been enhanced.
You can now play the contents “Hero’s Song of Thordan’s Fall”, “Zenith of the Gods – Sephirot”, “The Song of Nidhogg’s Last Call” and “Zenith of the Gods – Sophia” via the Duty Finder instead of the Raid Search
With these changes, you should be able to obtain any missing items in Final Fantasy 14 faster and thus be optimally equipped for Stormblood.
A new cinematic in WoW makes the hearts of Alliance players soar. It is about Anduin Wrynn, the current King of Humans …
This post is about some important characters from World of Warcraft and their future. Consider this a spoiler warning!
With patch 7.2 of World of Warcraft, the namesake Tomb of Sargeras and the Broken Shore are indeed at the center of events, but there are also a few actions off the islands.
Especially Alliance players can be pleased, as a new questline sheds light on the story of Anduin Wrynn, the current King of Stormwind. On this mission, players accompany Anduin through the streets of Stormwind and share in his melancholy. Anduin still has not overcome the death of his father.
Ultimately, the questline culminates on the Broken Shore, as Anduin sneaks there to visit the place of his father’s death. It is here that he also sees for the first time the horrors brought upon the land by the Legion and the impact of the battle at the Broken Shore.
This all ends in a cinematic where Anduin, Genn Greymane, and Prophet Velen stand on the shore. The complete cinematic has already been extracted by data miners at wowhead and can be viewed here in English:

Ultimately, Anduin manages to overcome his shadow and bear the burden of the crown. In a vision, he sees his father one last time, giving him the advice to “do what a king must do.” Varian originally spoke this sentence after the Siege of Orgrimmar, when the fate of the Horde was decided. At that time, he acted mercifully and allowed the Horde to continue under a new Warchief.
What Anduin’s future will look like is still uncertain. According to the pre-Legion comics, he will probably join the Army of Light and may play a significant role in the downfall of the Legion.
Today, the new For Honor Patch 1.05 is expected on PS4 and Xbox One. We will show you when the patch is available and how long the servers will be down.
The developers have now confirmed that it won’t be long until For Honor’s new Patch 1.05 is released. More specifically, the update for PS4 and Xbox One will be available today at noon. The servers will be down temporarily before you can download the new update.
Update 1.05 – Servers Down on April 19
The new Patch 1.05 for For Honor includes many balance changes and bug fixes that apply to almost all characters in the game. The update was already released for PC players about two weeks ago. The same changes are in the new update for both the PC and console versions of For Honor, so the patch notes are also valid for consoles.
Today, around 2:00 PM, the servers will be taken down for maintenance for Patch 1.05. The servers will be unavailable for about 20 minutes. Afterwards, the new patch will be rolled out and made available for you to download.
The first expansion of Ghost Recon Wildlands is called Narco Road and introduces thrilling races and new missions into the game, as showcased in the video.
Yesterday, the Narco Road expansion for Ghost Recon Wildlands was released, where your task is to infiltrate gangs. First, you gain their trust and then take them down. But this new storyline is not the only thing that awaits you in Narco Road.
There are also new aspects in the game. These include action-packed races with nitro vehicles and monster trucks. In the trailer for the DLC, you can get a sense of how this content works in Ghost Recon Wildlands.

Are you ready to enter the circles of the gangs and then destroy them from the inside? With stylish sports cars, you give the impression that you “belong” and can gain the trust of your opponents at parties and meetings. This weakens them for your later plans to annihilate the gangs.
With the fast new vehicles, you can engage in races packed with action. Use buggies, monster trucks, or other nitro-powered vehicles to dash across the tracks. Those who prefer something a bit more extreme can jump with the souped-up cars over ramps down the mountains.
If two wheels are enough for you, there are also cool new chopper motorcycles in the DLC that bring a biker club feeling. Can’t do anything with cars and motorcycles? Then grab the new airplanes designed for acrobatic maneuvers.
Have you had a chance to try out the Narco Road content? If so, how do you like the DLC? The DLC will be released on April 25 for players without a premium pass.
In the lead-up, the Ghost Recon Wildlands DLC “Narco Road” received a lot of criticism from fans of the tactical shooter. “We don’t want a GTA DLC”

In the MMO shooter Destiny this week, there are three strong vendor weapons. What else do Banshee-44 and the vendors offer?
First Xur was the star of Destiny, then Banshee – now it’s the faction vendors
The times in Destiny have changed. For a long time, it was all about the exotic dealer Xur, then with Banshee-44 a new “super vendor” appeared. He took orders from the Guardians and then could bring strong legendary weapons.
Banshee-44 has now fallen from grace – most players simply have all the weapons he can offer. Xur is also not as exciting as before since Guardians get their weapons through the “Three of Coins” and quests. Players are no longer reliant on Don Calamari and his squid mafia.
Vendor weapons are the new hot thing in Destiny
The “new hot thing” in Destiny is the very ordinary vendors. They used to have a rigid repertoire of weapons. It only changed every six months or so.
That is now different. Since the “Age of Triumph,” vendor offerings change weekly. Every Wednesday, specialists scour the vendors in search of THE weapon, the “God Roll.” That’s what it’s called when a weapon embodies the “perfect perks,” carrying the best traits it can have.
We presented all the God Rolls back in January.
Automatic Rifle with special configuration: Extremophil
This week, an automatic rifle is on the brink of godliness. It’s the Extremophil 011. You can get it at the Dead Orbit.
The automatic rifle comes with the perks: High-Caliber Rounds, Perfect Balance, and Stability Adjust. On Reddit, the weapon is already being celebrated.
Players have erected a small altar for it and are dancing around it chanting its name, much like the people of Israel did around that golden calf. You may have heard of it.
Back to the weapon: The double “Stability Boost” is a rare and sought-after combination. Especially with automatic rifles, one can stay on a target particularly long and inflict devastating damage. Its followers say of the weapon: It melts everything away. It is a total face-melting machine.
The current perk configuration is the combination considered the God Roll for the Extremophil in PvP.
Scout Rifle: The Wounded
Also worth a look is the scout rifle “The Wounded” at the Future War Cult.
However, things are trickier here.
The rifle “The Wounded” is available this week with “Full Auto” and the perks Crowd Control and Outlaw. In the world of scout rifles, two philosophies are at odds over what constitutes a God Roll.
Some are keen on “Firefly and Triple Tap” to create a kind of explosion sniper. Others want “Full Auto” on their scouts. They could be happy with “The Wounded” this week.
Rocket Launcher: Dust to Dust 00
This week, the rocket launcher “Dust to Dust 00” is also interesting at the Dead Orbit.
A fierce debate is currently raging about this type of rocket launcher. For some say, it can kill raid boss Aksis better and faster than the previous favorite weapon, the Dark Drinker, a sword.
Dust to Dust comes with the perks: Cluster Bombs, Field Scout, Tripod. It could very well be worth a purchase.
All three weapons cost 150 legendary shards each.
Weapons Day in Destiny – The Offer from Banshee-44
Poor Banshee-44 has become a footnote in the article that used to belong solely to him. But perhaps with Destiny 2 things will pick up again. If only the Cabal aren’t drinking tortoise soup out of his skull by now.
This week, Banshee-44 has a PDX-45 on offer. You can order it. Banshee-44 is famous for being stingy with this pulse rifle and rarely offering it. He hasn’t had it in stock for months.
Other weapons that Banshee-44 is selling this week:
Häkke Arminius-D
Suros DIS-43
Omolon Uffern HC4
Häkke Herja-D
As a particularly neat roll, he is bringing a “DIS-43,” a scout rifle, with him. The version of the DIS-43 features Perfect Balance and Hand-Laid Stock. If you have ordered a DIS-43, you can now pick it up with these perks.
Here’s our article about the God Rolls in Destiny:
The successful update “Octavia’s Anthem” for the online shooter Warframe is now also available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This allows console players to finally compose their own battle music and take down the craziest Warframe mutants, clones, and looters.
“Music is the language of love,” but in Warframe, the dark science-fiction online shooter from Digital Extremes, music proclaims death and destruction for the enemies of the Tenno!
The reason for this acoustic apocalypse is the new Warframe Octavia, who fights with self-composed tunes and with the update “Octavia’s Anthem” is now available on consoles Xbox One & PlayStation 4.

At the heart of the update is, of course, Octavia, a new, crazy Warframe. Octavia is a supporter who fights with music. Her skills use compositions that she can even create herself between missions in something called the “Mandachord”. You can even share the music with other players!
Your creation can be heard when you use Octavia’s skills, for example, by sending out a kind of disco ball that attracts enemies or mows down opponents with sound waves. Especially cool is a buff feature that gives your friends increasingly better bonuses when they move to your beat. For example, by jumping at the right moment, kneeling, or shooting.
Warframe – Octavia’s Anthem – Quests, Weapons, Skins, and Selfies
Along with Octavia comes a new quest that allows you to delve deep into the mysteries of Cephalon Suda. There are also new weapons that fit specifically with Octavia and a bunch of new skins and accessories, like helmets and Syandana scarves.
So you can enjoy all the splendor, you can take cool space selfies with a new “capture feature” and even edit them afterward. So put on your coolest Warframe, get ready, and post the coolest pictures online!
The Amazon Game Studios are looking for a new employee for the MMORPG New World, which is reportedly the only western AAA MMORPG currently in development.
Hardly any large western developer studio is dealing more with MMORPGs. There are various reasons for this. But Amazon Game Studios dares to do what even Electronic Arts and Blizzard shy away from. The new large developer studio is working on a new AAA MMORPG. New World takes place in a fictional past of the Earth, when Spanish conquerors arrive in the “New World,” but are confronted with supernatural beings and magic.
Developers are looking for reinforcement
Not much is known about the game so far. However, it is one of the major projects that the Amazon Game Studios are currently working on. Although we haven’t heard anything about the game for a while, it remains one of Amazon’s top titles.
The developer studio is now looking for a new employee. The job description for the “Player Relations Specialist” mentions a person who must be well familiar with the game mechanics, lore, and history of the MMORPG. He should possess good communication skills and strengthen the community management team.
A new sandbox MMORPG
Also interesting is the description of the game that is mentioned: New World is an open sandbox game world where players find themselves in a hostile land full of dangers. You decide how and with whom you play. You determine your own fate and how you deal with the supernatural dangers. Together with others, it is possible to create entire civilizations. Dynamic weather and seasons will also play a role.
It appears that there will be few or no quests. The focus is clearly on a sandbox. What the game looks like and how it plays is still unclear. Perhaps Amazon will show something about New World at this year’s E3…
Paladins is currently offline and not starting. The Paladins’ servers are being upgraded to Patch OB 48 for PC, which is why the game is not starting.
Update: The servers of Paladins are back online. They were briefly down to implement the new Patch OB 48. They are now running again and have been updated to OB 48.
Original message:
Today (April 19), Paladins’ new Patch OB 48 is being released. This was announced yesterday by the Community Manager “Alyssa Huskey” in a tweet.
Bad news for romance fans in Overwatch. No love from the heroes can compare to their affection for the payload.
Once any franchise with a lot of colorful characters is in the hands of fans, it doesn’t take long for numerous stories to emerge. Fan fictions are a widespread phenomenon and creativity flows abundantly (or reaches some “peaks”) as fans create new pairings among the characters.
It’s called “Shipping” when fans assign romantic and sexual relationships to fictional characters. The first “Ships” in pop culture came from Star Trek: Some wished for a romantic relationship between Kirk and Spock. Later in The X-Files, some hoped for a Mulder/Scully thing.
Overwatch is very popular among shippers
Especially in Overwatch, the phenomenon of “Shipping” is widespread, and some players are eager for new information about the loves among the heroes. Who’s with whom? Since when? Why?
However, Blizzard is cautious with information on this. While there are some concrete details here and there – such as Tracer’s relationship with her girlfriend or the fact that Torbjörn has several children – generally, they prefer to hold back.
Heroes have no time for love, must escort payloads
In an interview with PCGamesN, Michael Chu, who is primarily responsible for the story of Overwatch, revealed the following:
“I think one thing that Shipping shows us is the fact that players have a connection to the characters and the world. It makes me happy that people have such strong feelings for the characters. Shipping – within the universe – isn’t the focus, though.”
The heroes are generally married to their work. They don’t have the time to be making out all the time; instead, they must focus on protecting the payload.
However, in the development of the characters, they won’t let themselves be influenced by fans, no matter which pairing they might want to see:
“We have determined the directions in which the characters will develop. To tell the story, we must do what feels right to us.”
He sees the stories of the fans as “their works” – they have taken a part of the game world and shaped something of their own, which is “really great”.
What do you think about fan fictions and the excitement around the heroes’ relationships? Just unnecessary “blah blah” for you, or something you’d like to learn more about?
A player was bullied due to his disability in CS:GO and was kicked from a match. The community reacted and made him an overnight star on Twitch.
GameStar reports on Adam “Loop” Bahriz. He is 17 years old and a player of the shooter CS:GO. Bahriz suffers from a condition called “Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy” (HSAN). As a result, he is nearly blind and deaf. His face is deformed, and he is missing teeth. To see something, he sits directly in front of the monitor – as close as possible. His voice sounds strange over voice chat.
Bahriz has a small Twitch channel and plays CS:GO in the ESA. When he joins a match, he informs the teammates via chat command about his condition and why his voice sounds so strange.
However, he encountered players in a match who were so disturbed by his voice that they accused him of being a kid trying to troll them while thinking he was particularly funny.
Although Bahriz was only asking about normal, game-relevant things and was playing quite successfully, his team muted him and eventually unanimously kicked him from the match. Bahriz was frustrated about this, he struck the monitor. It feels bad, a terrible day.

Teenager suddenly has thousands of viewers, ten thousand dollars in donations
Another player observed the drama in Bahriz’s stream and didn’t want to let it go. He posted the incident on reddit along with some clips. He said: Basically, he was bullied because of his illness and kicked from the game. Please show him your love. He is a nice guy and is going through a tough time.
The action made a big splash on reddit. The thread received over 8000 upvotes. Players flocked to Bahriz’s stream. They showed solidarity with him. The people who had kicked him out of the group did not represent the CS:GO community.
Professional players from teams like Cloud9 support the action, contacted Bahriz, and played with him.
Donations also started flowing in. Bahriz is raising money for cosmetic surgery to correct his deformed nose for his 18th birthday. After $6,000 was raised and the donation goal reached, he asked for the donations to stop. But over $10,000 came in.
Worst day becomes the best day
According to GameStar, Bahriz was even offered a contract as a professional streaming partner by the pro team EnVyUs.
Hey @FDN_Loop, we want to offer you a contract to stream and represent our team. Let’s do this.
In a teaser, RiotGames showcases a new game mode for League of Legends and two skins themed around Dark Star.
Future content in League of Legends will be dark. This is at least what the new teaser suggests, which League of Legends has published. It features a new game mode and two new skins (Orianna and Kha’Zix) that fit the Dark Star theme.

In the trailer, you can see a game mode that apparently involves pulling or shoving opponents into the void. Visually, the mode fits the Dark Star/Supernova Thresh skin, which is shown several times in the video.
Properly positioning, grabbing an opponent, and then kicking them into the void. These seem to be the main functions in this new mode. It is possible that other champions with hook and knockback abilities will also be involved.
If you look closely, at the end of the video you can spot two teasers that appear to showcase additional skins in the Dark Star theme. The community speculates that these will be new skins for Orianna and Kha’Zix.
Presumably, the mode and the skins will be available to you in the new Patch 7.9. It is expected that Riot will soon offer the mode and the skins for testing on the PBE servers.
The real-time strategy legend StarCraft and the expansion Brood War are now available for free. Those who are not familiar with the games should act quickly.
A while ago, Blizzard announced that they would provide a remastered version of the popular strategy game StarCraft and the expansion StarCraft: Brood War. This remastered version is set to be released in the summer of this year, aiming to offer improved textures and a significantly increased pixel count, allowing younger players access to the origin of StarCraft or enabling older players to experience this strategy gem in a new light.
In preparation for the release of the new versions of StarCraft and Brood War, Blizzard has now made both original games available for free.
Download StarCraft and the Addon Brood War for Free
StarCraft deals with the origins of the three major races in the Koprulu sector of the galaxy. Humans have expanded widely, but repeatedly encounter a new threat in the fringe worlds: the Zerg. These adaptable aliens continuously mutate and adapt to their environment, driven by the mysterious Overmind to consume new targets “for the swarm”.
Together with the expansion Brood War, StarCraft tells the origin story of Jim Raynor, his rise and fall as a simple mercenary. Players also learn how Sarah Kerrigan evolved from a Ghost unit to the Queen of Blades and ultimately experienced her second birth as the feared “heroine” of the Zerg swarm. Oh – the strange Protoss are also involved and hold little regard for both humans and Zerg.
Will you download the original version of the game? Or would you rather wait for the summer and the price of the “remastered” version?
By offering the game for free, it seems that the dream of some community members, that the remastered version could be free for owners of the original, has died – as now basically everyone owns it.

In the embedded trailer, you could already get a few impressions of the new free DLC for Titanfall 2. New maps with tight pathways ensure action in the game, leaving hardly any time for reading the map overview, as the player painfully had to experience in the video. The highlights of the expansion, which will be released on April 25, sound promising and will delight fans of the shooter.
New Map: “Glitch”
This new map has a medium size and is designed for modes with objectives. It was inspired by Captain Lastimosas home planet “Harmony”. The map features vertical differences and long, winding paths. This offers plenty of potential for wall-running combinations, as seen in the trailer.
New Map for Live Fire Mode: “Deck”
There are many visual stimuli on the Deck map for the Live Fire mode. You will find tight interiors and open courtyards there, as well as vigilant drones hovering over you during your matches. In the background, you might spot one or two M.R.V.N.
In addition to these two cool maps, there are other notable contents in the A Glitch in the Frontier DLC. These include:
M.R.V.N. faction
Execution Mode: As a featured mode, you will find Execution at the launch of A Glitch in the Frontier.
Main Menu Update: The menu has been updated and refreshed. There are icons for news and other changes that you should take a look at.
Generation Limit for Pilots Increased:
The new upper limit is now 100
New Gen symbols for your call signs are available. You get a new one for every ten reached gens.
Choice: Choose between Prime and standard executions for Titans
New Execution: The new execution in the DLC is called Get to the Point (Impulse Blade)
Private Games with Live Fire: The private game options now include the Live Fire mode.
What do you think of the contents of A Glitch in the Frontier? Does the DLC resonate with you?

Mass Effect Andromeda caused frustration among many players due to bugs, pancake faces, and bizarre animations, which were expressed in numerous harsh comments. Chief developer Ian Frazier from Bioware shared his experiences dealing with such “feedback” in an interview.
Mass Effect Andromeda was not well received by many fans of the series. The blame was primarily on the pancake faces of the human characters, which were fixed only through a shader update. But also clumsy dialogues, bugs, and a plethora of collectible quests made many players angry.
The result was a lot of nasty comments, flames, and trolling on the internet.
Ian Frazier, Lead Designer of the Andromeda team, read many of the comments and is not exactly happy about it.
Mass Effect Andromeda – “It’s tough!”
In an interview with IBTimes UK, Frazier spoke about his feelings when reading player comments. Frazier wants to receive positive and constructive feedback from players in order to incorporate it into his work and improve the game.
But to get to the valuable information, one must wade through a lot of crap, according to Frazier. The nasty comments from some particularly angry players are therefore not easy to process: “I don’t want to lie, it’s tough”.
Nevertheless, Frazier is not completely disillusioned and frustrated with the players. Rather, he sees dialogue with players and evaluating feedback as an important process in game design: “Don’t get me wrong, I don’t appreciate these occasional low blows, but in return, it’s good that it’s happening. We have a great opportunity to receive fan feedback from such a wide spectrum.”
Mass Effect Andromeda – Game improved with feedback
Overall, Bioware seems satisfied and continues to work on improving Mass Effect Andromeda. The post-launch schedule is on the right track, and depending on the feedback, they will adjust the corresponding priorities and thus gradually improve and develop the game.
What do you think of Ian Frazier’s situation? Do you feel sorry for him, or do you think that the rocky start of Mass Effect Andromeda is indeed a reason for harsh criticism and that developers have to accept such criticism in this case? Let us know in the comments!
In the MMO shooter Destiny , you can find touching and amusing moments in the videos of the week.

Just a mention, but we still put it in 1st place: the video “Guardian Down” – the Italian Guardian GiorgioButon succumbed to his illness after a year-long battle with cancer. His teammates and clanmates say goodbye in a video.
They mourn their friend, but also celebrate the time they had together. They say: He was always the one who shot first, stood up to every enemy, tackled every situation with full commitment, as if he knew his time on Earth was limited.
It’s a great video that shows scenes of a “very normal Guardian life” from the past years. You see how the gear changes, the levels rise, and in the end, the voice says, “We will never forget you.” One of the most emotional videos in Destiny overall.

The actual winner by Bungie’s grace is Defender Bebop. This is a flashy and atmospheric montage, where the melody and sound take center stage. In the background, player noises can be heard. There are chuckles and crackles when something particularly beautiful has been achieved.
A lively, casual video that showcases the beautiful moments in a Guardian’s life. The video proves, that playing in Destiny can definitely have a certain style and swing.

Video three is something completely different, as an artist showcases her work. You can see how a Hunter of the Awoken gains color and power.

For us, this is a very special duo of videos this time (the third one is slightly different). It shows in the videos of Destiny now that the years many have spent with the game lend a certain weight and significance to everything that happens.
Goodbyes to friends, even if you might only know them from the game, are real. Because the time spent together is also “real” life time and not “virtual.”
The upcoming online game Rend aims to do things differently. It is not a classic MMORPG, but offers survival and MOBA elements – as well as an interesting class system.
In Rend, you do not choose a class at the beginning like in a classic MMORPG. Only when you reach level 2 do you get the choice to invest your talent points in four paths.
However, you cannot learn all paths; you must choose two, one of which will be your primary class and the other your secondary class. Depending on which paths you choose as primary and secondary classes, your character plays differently. An Assassin-Soldier, for example, does not play the same as a Soldier-Assassin.
Four classes, from which you choose two
The four classes from which you can choose your hero are:
Assassin: The assassin is known for quick strikes from the shadows and can deal a lot of damage. As you improve your skills, you will deal more damage and become more agile, but your hit points and carrying capacity will hardly improve. An assassin can cloak, but only as long as they remain still.
Soldier: Soldiers are strong and heavily armored fighters. The more points you invest in this path, the more damage you deal and the more you can carry. Your hit points will also increase over time, making the Soldier a fighting machine.
Survivalist: The Survivalist is a class that does not have to worry much about water, equipment, and hit points. Survivalists are the ideal gatherers and crafters because they have high resistance and can move quickly. Survivalists can find food and water even in places where others would starve and thirst.
Mystic: Mystics are a support class that can buff companions. They are ideal for supporting others as they help them survive. They can even conjure light that only group members can use. In a cave, a Mystic can cast light that enemies cannot see, while the group can spot an enemy torchbearer from a distance.
With Rend, an online game is set to appear that does not compete with the big MMORPGs and MOBAs, but mixes the best elements of these games with survival into a unique game.

The voice actor drama around Pharah’s new voice is entering the next round. Now a petition is supposed to reinstate her as an Overwatch voice.
Things are not going smoothly at Overwatch. Just under a week ago, we reported that Pharah’s German voice actor was replaced. In a “Bluepost” on the German Overwatch forum, Blizzard explained that Pharah’s previous voice actress, Ghadah Al-Akel, had been replaced. The reason given was that due to “availability issues or similar unforeseen difficulties,” working with a voice actor sometimes could not be continued.
The catch is: Ghadah Al-Akel stated that she would have loved to continue voicing Pharah, and she is not aware of any reasons why she was replaced. She only learned about it through the community and is accordingly disappointed.
Petition aims to bring Al-Akel back as Pharah
As Buffed now reports, what always happens when “the internet” is not satisfied has been done: a petition on change.org (link to the petition) has been started to reinstate Al-Akel as the voice actress for the German Pharah.
Under the petition, fans describe in some comments why they want the “old Pharah” back, as one user put it:
“The old Pharah voice was always a reason for me to play the game in German, simply because it sounded like an ambitious, self-confident, yet sympathetic woman.”
What is your opinion on this matter? Do you support the petition? Or do you ultimately not care about the voice because you play in English anyway?
Cortyn says: This situation has become quite difficult. While I can understand fans’ excitement, I am more an advocate for the new voice. The new voice is also fitting, and I wouldn’t want an endless back and forth. As for the ultimate reasons for the voice change, to me personally, it is relatively unimportant. It was disrespectful and certainly a mistake if there was never any communication between Blizzard and Al-Akel. Still, ultimately, it is Blizzard’s decision and not that of the community.
