Jason Momoa’s character “The Garbage Man” in the movie about Minecraft could be heavily inspired by a well-known influencer, according to fans. However, a clear answer as to whether this is true will probablynever exist for good reason.
Which influencer is being referred to? Fans who have seen the new Minecraft movie see several clear parallels between the character “Garbage Man” Garrett Garrison played by Jason Momoa and the Twitch streamer DrDisrespect, also known as Guy Beahm. That’s why they believe that Jason Momoa’s character is based on him.
However, these parallels are not without problems: In summer 2024, it was revealed that DrDisrespect had received a ban on Twitch for sending inappropriate messages to minors. This information was only published after the main filming of the movie had been completed a few months ago, making any subsequent changes very difficult.

“It is absolutely impossible that Garbage Man is not at least partially based on DrDisrespect”
What parallels do fans see? In various threads on Reddit, fans share their theories about the parallels between Jason Momoa’s character and the streamer DrDisrespect. For example, Garbage Man is known as the video game world champion of 1989. In this regard, DrDisrespect has made his title as the blockbuster video game world champion from 1993 to 1994 a substantial part of his personality. Additionally, both wear distinctive clothing and have a very similar style.
User TR1CL0PS also shares his observations via Reddit: “The gaming championship of 1989, Pitviper sunglasses, long hair with facial hair, boastful demeanor, one-liners, and sometimes speaking Spanish. It definitely felt like they were inspired by Doc.”
DepravitySixx opens his thread on Reddit with the words: “It is absolutely impossible that Garbage Man is not at least partially based on DrDisrespect” and also cites the aforementioned points, as well as a flashy red car as a status symbol.
Although she is one of the most popular companions in Baldur’s Gate 3, many players curse Shadowheart’s spellcasting, especially in the early game. However, some players feel this is unfair, explaining what she is doing wrong. Apparently, many simply do not understand how spells work.
What is Shadowheart’s problem?
The cleric has several cantrips at her disposal, which she can use when she can’t cast other spells. For spellcasting classes, these cantrips are essential to avoid being completely helpless.
However, that only applies in theory. On Reddit, a player complains that Shadowheart also constantly misses with Toll the Dead. Veterans jump in and explain: you are simply choosing the wrong targets.
You don’t want to play Shadowheart as a cleric? Here’s how to reskill her:

“Shadowheart is a meme in Act 1”
The problem with Toll the Dead is that the spell requires a Wisdom saving throw. Now, one might argue that an Owlbear cannot be particularly wise. However, in D&D, “wisdom” does not only represent the life experience of older individuals.
Wisdom also reflects instincts and awareness, things that contribute to survival. Consequently, many wild animals in Dungeons & Dragons are very “wise.” Rolls like Perception are thus based on Wisdom.
However, one user once calculated what the probabilities actually are by trying different percentages 150 times (via Reddit). His result: the probabilities are indeed lower than indicated.
In another comment, it was mentioned that one could forgo Toll the Dead and instead take Chill Touch. This uses a spell attack roll with Wisdom and is more reliable. Otherwise, you just have to choose the right targets. You can also “examine” opponents to see their stats.
The soulslike Lords of the Fallen recently struggled with low player numbers on Steam. Now a major update has been released that has led to a significant increase in active players.
What is the state of the game? Lords of the Fallen was released in 2023 and is the loose successor to the 2014 title of the same name. The game shows significant influences from FromSoftware’s Souls games, thus resembling Dark Souls or Elden Ring. It was a top seller on Steam, despite mixed reviews.
While Lords of the Fallen had around 43,000 players at release on Steam, this number rapidly declined in the following months (via steamdb.com). A month after release, only just over 4,000 users were playing, and that number has since dropped even further.
Just a week ago, the game was languishing with weak numbers of 100-500 users. However, a major update has now been released that gives Lords of the Fallen the version number 2.0. This quickly led to a significant increase in player numbers and an improvement in reviews.

Lords of the Fallen: Trailer for the Major Update 2.0 for the Action RPG on Steam
Co-op players have reason to rejoice
What does the update bring? Version 2.0 is not just a small patch, but brings changes that are certainly prompting some players to give the game another chance.
Especially co-op players can look forward to this. The centerpiece of the update is a new cooperative mode, where both participants in a session share progress. The only requirement: they must be in the same New Game and have defeated the same number of bosses with a tolerance of one boss difference.
Additionally, the update introduces the possibility of using the “Friends Pass”. In this case, only one of the two players needs to own Lords of the Fallen, while the other can simply join the game.
This and several other fixes, such as improved movement in combat, are resulting in a huge rise in players. At least in relation to the last few months. Just a week ago, a maximum of 500 players were online; last weekend, thanks to the update, Lords of the Fallen reached a solid 11,000 users (via steamdb.com).
The CEO of the publisher CI Games thanked for the sudden interest on x.com:
10,000 concurrent players, 18 months after launch. Just a week ago we were about 500. This means a lot to us. Thank you very much to everyone who believed in us, supported us, and joined us. We will always be there for you.
In the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, players level the first class with the main story, while the secondary ones mostly involve combat. One player has now brought a class to level 100 without using any of its abilities.
What happened? The Reddit user Catfish017 shared a post showcasing his gunblade at level 100. The character still wears the starting gear but has a relic weapon from Endwalker, which can be redeemed through quests and Allagan stones.
In the post’s title, the user states that he did not use a single ability while leveling with the tank. He reportedly achieved this by farming experience points through Khloe’s Adventure Album. In a comment, he mentions that it took him a total of 1.5 years from the starting level 60.
In the comments, players praise Catfish017 for his effort but also express mild cynicism and exchange additional tips for leveling without combat. For specifics, you can read under the video.

Level 100 without abilities? I’ve had worse tanks
How does the community react? Some players find the idea really great. One writes that he is afraid of tanking and wants to use the new leveling technique to complete the role quests (via Reddit). Another specifically states, uh, I’ve had worse tanks (via Reddit).
Reddit user KingBanhammer has even had such bad experiences that he trusts Catfish017 more than random players now. Dragon_Yeti (via Reddit) has likely had a few bad tanks as well: […]the level [of a character] is not even remotely an indicator of a player’s experience and skill.
Overall, players regard the achievement very highly. At the same time, there is also dissatisfaction about bad teammates and the unexpectedly easy farming of the last relic weapons.
Can you level other classes this way? Besides sharing opinions, players are also exchanging tips on how they can level their classes effectively. Catfish017 states that he leveled entirely using Khloe’s Adventure Album. But there are also experience points for completing quests related to the relic weapon.
Other commentators point to the PvP mode Front. Here, the hotbar changes so that players can no longer use regular abilities.
The top commentator talks about leveling the gathering class Fisher to 100 without catching a single fish. His trick was to exchange fish bought daily from his Grand Company at the market board for experience points.
In the “Campfire Chat” livestream, the developers gave an early glimpse of Season 8 of Diablo 4 – including new features. One of them allows you to take on the powers of defeated bosses and enhance your builds with them.
Update, April 22: The article has been adjusted and updated. Since Blizzard has made changes to the boss powers, we have revised the listing and replaced values with X to maintain currency in case of potential changes. You can find concrete details about the boss powers at Blizzard.
What is this feature? The new mechanic in Season 8 is the boss powers. You receive the special powers of the hideout bosses after defeating them for the first time. You can then use these skills for your builds. According to Blizzard, there will be a total of 24 different bosses whose skills you can take on.

The new boss powers in Season 8 of Diablo 4.You can take down enemies even with Lilith’s skill.
Belial as the new “Pinnacle Boss”
From whom do I receive the powers? You will receive the powers from all hideout bosses you defeat in Season 8. There are a total of 24 different bosses, divided into three categories:
World Bosses, such as Knorzer and Ashava
Hideout Bosses (formerly “Ladder” bosses), such as Duriel and Andariel
Event Bosses, which spawn during a seasonal event that can regularly appear throughout Sanctuary
For the hideout bosses, you need to be at a torment level, while the world and event bosses can essentially be approached during early leveling. The hideout bosses are also divided into three tiers: Candidate, Greater, and Exalted. The greater ones include Andariel, Duriel, and the Messenger of Hatred. The exalted hideout boss is Belial, who is said to be quite a formidable opponent.
Three new bosses in Diablo 4: Urivar, The Messenger of Hatred, Belial
To summon them, you no longer need boss materials – but you can use them to open chests after the boss fight for more loot. The new bosses are expected to remain in the game, along with the new classification of hideout bosses into levels and the changes to the summoning system.
On top of that, the bosses will have more health so that they won’t just fall over easily at high levels when you fight them with strong builds. Currently, the most powerful builds, such as the bloodwave necromancer, can one-shot the toughest bosses easily. Some players are currently intentionally opting for less powerful builds: Player plays Diablo 4 with a weak build, stating: “This is how the game should be”

Just a few days ago, there was the first gameplay of Dune: Awakening. Of course, the question now arises as to when the Survival MMO will finally be released. We asked the developers themselves.
Accordingly, the question now arises about the release of Dune: Awakening – there were already early rumors in 2019. Developer Funcom invited MeinMMO to an event on the occasion of the Direct, where we specifically asked the developer about the release plan.

Dune: Awakening Release Date – What the Developers Say
Is there already a release date? Currently, no specific release date for Dune: Awakening is known. It can be assumed that the game will be released in 2024. However, there is currently no guarantee for this.
What do the developers say? MeinMMO was invited by Funcom to an event regarding the new gameplay. During this event, we were able to ask the developers some questions.
The game’s Creative Director Joel Bylos stated that the team wants to take all the necessary time: They want to develop the game they have set out to create. And if they need more time for that, then so be it.
But we also wanted to know specifically if they could say anything about the release plan – whether the game is supposed to be released in one or two years, for example. Natascha Röösli, the Senior PR Manager at Funcom, shared the following with us:
I mean, we are not talking about several years of waiting. But: This is the gaming industry. So let’s knock on wood.
As Joel [Bylos] mentioned: We have already had some betas, and they are running at full speed, and we are constantly adding new players. It really depends on the feedback we get from the players. If they are really satisfied with something we are currently testing, that means we can move it to the next development phase.
I mean, we now have a lot of players in the current beta that we just recently started. So we are expanding our tests, and so far it looks good.
Natascha Röösli, Senior PR Manager at Funcom, 27.02.2024 in Los Angeles
In closing, she also thanked the players for their interest in the game. Anyone who wants to support the team at Funcom in development can do so by participating in the closed betas and via the game’s official Discord.
Have you already had a look at the closed beta of Dune: Awakening? Will you sign up for it? Or are you waiting for the release for your first impression? We look forward to your comments.
A new game on Steam is aimed at MMORPG fans who do not have time to rely on the plans of others. This is very well received by players – 93% of the reviews are positive.
What kind of game is Erenshor? Erenshor is a “single-player MMORPG”:Since the term stands for “Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game,” it initially sounds quite paradoxical.
However, if you take a look at Steam, the influence of classic MMORPGs like RuneScape and EverQuest is hard to overlook.
You can watch the trailer for the game here:
Start video
Erenshor: Trailer for the Singleplayer MMORPG on Steam
The game world of Erenshor is shared with so-called “SimPlayers”:These are simulated players who have their own personality and motivation. They even use chat to communicate with you. With them, you form guilds, trade, and complete raids, where you also argue about the loot dropped by the boss – just like in the classics.
The other players are supposed to remember how you treat them and adjust their behavior towards you accordingly. The game is designed from the ground up to be played alone. Therefore, there is no plan for multiplayer in the future.
MMORPG sim impresses players on Steam
Players are already very fond of the single-player MMORPG:About 93% of the roughly 550 reviews on Steam are positive.
“I’m now in a strange parasocial relationship with ‘Blademan.’ He is the most toxic tank I’ve ever encountered,” writes Poorstacy, jokingly adding: “There are no simulated players in this game – it’s just the dev controlling each one of them.” (via Steam)
Jaarka writes: “Erenshor is a love letter to the early MMOs of the late 90s and early 2000s. It has simple mechanics that remain engaging, and the SimPlayer concept is really fun and makes the world feel ‘lived’ by imaginary players.” (via Steam)
Erenshor is the “MMORPG” for anyone who is a fan of the classics but wants to play on their own terms. Those with little time to play regularly will not be kicked out of every group and won’t fall behind.
Still, GTA 6 is one of the most anticipated games of all time. Not much is known about the title, but an insider has allegedly discovered that Rockstar is preparing for the release, even with the construction of a new building.
Where does the information come from? The X user Detective Seeds has reportedly found out that Rockstar is building a massive data center. According to a comment on X, he himself has even been on the construction site. Detective suggests that this data center is intended solely for GTA 6, emphasizing the scale of how huge the release of the upcoming title is expected to be.
The exact location of the data center and the construction site has not been disclosed by the insider, only that there might be difficulties with cooling, but Rockstar is working on that and may also consider alternatives.

Dedicated data center offers advantages for Rockstar
What are the benefits of this building? A data center is there to allow a company to manage its data efficiently. It’s primarily about storing and processing the respective data. As in the past, Rockstar is not exempt from leaks with GTA 6.
However, with its own data center, the studio can better control its data and thus further minimize the chance of a data leak – though it cannot be completely ruled out. Since GTA 6 has no release date yet and is still in development, Rockstar could thus utilize the center for its upcoming title in the future.
If the team takes longer, this building would be the perfect place to secure the game’s data until the right moment arrives to share more information with fans.

Monster Hunter Wilds: Capcom shows the hunting horn in action
What is the best build for the hunting horn? For the hunting horn, the best build should primarily focus on high damage and affinity while incapacitating the monster. However, your songs, which you can transform into buffs, also take priority. Depending on the weapon, you can adapt situationally and even have access to two hunting horns to benefit from different buffs.
Weapon
Omiltika (Artian weapon) or alternatively, the Sounding Galahad
Armor

How to build the best Artian weapon for the hunting horn
What do I need to craft Omiltika? When crafting Omiltika, you should ensure you choose three attack infusions for your materials. The element should be paralysis to quickly incapacitate your target in battle.
However, if you prefer other elements, you can switch to fire or dragon. As a secondary weapon, it is advisable to use a second hunting horn—in this case, the Sounding Galahad—and fully focus on buffs.
Which enhancement bonus should I focus on? When enhancing your Artian weapon, the following bonus is particularly important:
Attack
Which decorations are important? You can be more flexible with decorations and choose the following options:
Sound/ KO-Jwl 3
CritStatus/ KO-Jwl 3
Critical Jwl III 3

Which armors are important? In our choice of armor, we focus on the following equipment and effects:

Set bonuses
Gore Magalas Tyranny
Black Darkness I: Triggers frenzy against large monsters in combat
Zoh Shia’s Pulse
Super Recovery I: Health slowly recovers up to maximum, even when there is no red section.
Which decorations should I use? In the armor, it is mainly about selecting decorations that support your frenzy, affinity, and raw damage. You should equip the following:
Helmet
Challenger-Jwl 3
Powerful Jwl 2
Reason Jwl 1
Chestpiece
Challenger-Jwl 3
Armguards
Powerful Jwl 2
Reason Jwl 1
Leggings
Powerful Jwl 2
Armor Boots
Challenger-Jwl 3
How does the strength of the build unfold?
The build relies on maximum Savle and Harasser levels to increase your damage and thus inflict more damage on the monster. To increase your crit damage, maximum power at level 3, as well as Harasser and Antivirus, are utilized.
With the Corrupted Mantle, you can further increase the crit damage and exceed 70%. It’s important to rely on two hunting horns for this build so that you can access different buffs, allowing you to deal more damage and provide support for your teammates.
It’s essential to just hit hard, play songs to provide buffs, and then potentially switch weapons if you need other buffs for your crew. If you keep getting interrupted while playing, you can counteract this with the Defiant Mantle.
On Easter Saturday, the Twitch streamer Tanzverbot attacked his ex-girlfriend Lola and Twitch streamer SkylineTV in a video on YouTube. The internet has been on fire ever since. Both influencers are being harshly insulted. However, there are also voices of moderation, albeit from an unexpected direction.
This is what Tanzverbot said: In a video on Easter Saturday, Twitch streamer Tanzverbot described his own desolate situation, which sounds like a depressive phase. He no longer leaves the house, sleeps until the afternoon, and has to cry multiple times a week.
The relationship with Twitch streamer Lola has robbed him of a lot of will to live, says the 28-year-old. Lola had, while still living with him, gotten involved with streamer SkylineTV. Tanzverbot says he found out when he helped Lola move into her new apartment. This hit him extremely hard and was the craziest thing that could have happened to him.
He knows that SkylineTV is well-connected, but he needs to get this off his chest, Tanzverbot said. He cannot stand that he is being confronted on social media about what a great woman Lola is, whom he treated so poorly. The truth is entirely different.

Intense backlash against Lola and SkylineTV
How does the situation escalate? Tanzverbot is a popular streamer with many fans who immediately believe him and harshly attack those he accuses on social media. Some will do this out of sympathy for Tanzverbot, while others might simply be flame tourists who enjoy seeing chaos unfold.
The Instagram accounts of Lola and SkylineTV are being flooded with nasty comments. Especially against Lola, comments are being made that go way below the belt.
MontanaBlack and Knossi call for moderation: Calm down
Who are the voices of reason? The “older” Twitch streamers MontanaBlack (37) and Knossi (38), who both know Tanzverbot but are also friends with SkylineTV and have employed him as a cameraman for IRL streams and events, are both calling for moderation.
Knossi states that we don’t know anything here, just that both parties need to talk to each other. People should calm down (via tiktok).
MontanaBlack says that people tend to take sides. But he does not want to take a side at this point and wants to wait and see what Lola and SkylineTV have to say. There can be no winners here (via tiktok). If Tanzverbot is right in his accusations, it would be a scandal – if he is wrong, it would be just as big.
Tanzverbot and Lola have frequently appeared together, giving many fans fodder to speculate about a relationship whose details have now come to light. (source: YouTube, 2022).
A user wondered on X (formerly Twitter) how much money OpenAI has already lost on electricity costs because people say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ to ChatGPT. This question was answered personally by tech billionaire and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
How much does user behavior cost? On X, user @tomieinlove asked in his post how much money has already been wasted by users saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ to OpenAI’s AI. To this question, the CEO of the company behind ChatGPT personally commented: ‘Dozens of millions of dollars well spent.’
He adds that while one can never know for sure, his answer is not unlikely. Every query or message to the AI chatbot consumes vast amounts of electricity.
In a Washington Post investigation (article is behind a paywall), it was found that composing an email of about 100 words with AI consumes around 0.14 kilowatt-hours of electricity.
If one were to send such an email once a week for a year, they would use 7.5 kilowatt-hours, which would correspond to the electricity consumption of 9 households in Washington D.C. for one hour.

Now, considering how many queries are entered into AI chatbots like ChatGPT every day, it quickly becomes clear that the energy costs must be immense. According to a calculation by energy analysts, AI chatbots account for around 2 percent of global energy consumption (via INDEED).
Therefore, if users input only ‘Please’ and ‘Thank you’ or other polite expressions, it consumes a lot of electricity. Thus, the CEO’s statement that it costs millions of U.S. dollars is likely.
Out of Politeness to AI?
Why do users say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ to the AI? In a study conducted by Future in December 2024, several reasons for this user behavior towards AI were identified (via techradar.com):
While artificial intelligence can bring many advantages, it cannot entirely replace humans in many positions and aspects of daily life.

Twenty years ago, the first Guild Wars was released. To celebrate the anniversary, which falls around Easter, the player counts on Steam are skyrocketing again.
What kind of game is this? Guild Wars is an online role-playing game developed by ArenaNet, released on April 26, 2005. On Metacritic, Guild Wars has a metascore of 89/100 points. The user score for the game is also very good at 8.2/10 points. This game was followed by several expansions and a sequel in 2012.
Here you see a trailer for the Guild Wars expansion “Eye of the North”:

Guild Wars hasn’t had this many players on Steam in a long time
The first Guild Wars is still supported by the developers: Therefore, there is also a special event celebrating the 20th anniversary. For many players, this is a reason to take another look at the game:
Guild Wars can be played not only through its own launcher but also through Steam – however, only about 200 people were playing simultaneously there in recent years. (via steamdb.info)
Since April 15, player counts have surged significantly: the game has now reached a new peak of almost 700 simultaneous players on Steam.
Thus, Guild Wars does not break the player record from 2011 – back then, there were about 1,300 simultaneous players on Steam in July. Nevertheless, this represents a significant increase compared to previous years.
The anniversary celebration takes place in the monastery of Shing Jea as well as in outposts across Tyria: Talk to Captain Li Sah to participate in a game of dodgeball in the dragon arena. Alternatively, you can approach the beetle trainer to try your luck at the beetle race.
During the celebration, there are special items to collect and a new ranger animal companion, Balthazar’s hunting dog. To get the latter, speak with Ceira, the fire sworn.
The festivities for the 20th anniversary began on April 15, 2025, and will run until May 6. The anniversary celebration is a separate event and will start on April 22, but will also continue until May 6.
Have you already participated in the celebrations for 20 years of Guild Wars? Feel free to share your impressions in the comments. If you’re new to the MMORPG genre, the Guild Wars series is a great place to start: Guild Wars 2 is one of the 5 best MMORPGs for newcomers.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, there are some common tactics in the community that have solidified over the years among monster hunters and have developed into unwritten rules. Inexperienced players often cause frustration in the community – especially because their behavior costs valuable damage.
What behavior is being referred to? When monsters are injured, they often retreat to their “nest” and lie down to sleep in order to recover. They can also fall asleep if players attack them with the “sleep” element. Hunters then have the opportunity to regroup and prepare, as the beast won’t run away.
Attacking a sleeping monster would bring several advantages, if not many, especially inexperienced players, would carelessly wake the monster from its sleep and continue the fight.
Players therefore turn to Reddit to reach out to their fellow players, urging them to pause when the monster retreats. Because hunting is a community project, and taking a moment to wait can bring significant advantages.
Start video
Monster Hunter Wilds shows its first title update with a new monster
“Please do not poke sleeping monsters!”
Why is this a problem? When monsters retreat to sleep or fall asleep during a fight, they remain there for a good amount of time. They do not run away and present no threat. This gives hunters time to set up explosive barrels, sharpen their weapons, take buffs, and regroup.
The main point is that the first attack on the monster when it is sleeping deals double damage. This makes it all the more aggravating when someone shoots a single arrow instead of placing bombs or allowing someone with a heavy weapon to strike, which would deal significantly more damage.
Players therefore reach out to their fellow hunters via Reddit to raise awareness in the hope that the problem will come to an end in the long term. Because in this case, a few seconds of patience can bring valuable damage and contribute to group cohesion.
Lockfin asks in his Reddit thread his potential teammates: “Please do not poke sleeping monsters! […] It’s great to hunt with so many new faces, but being new means not knowing important things. Important things such as what Sleep Bombing is.”
“PSA: A sleeping monster is a community event. […] Hunts already last on average only 5 minutes. Can we relax and respect the old traditions?” writes user ProNerdPanda in his Reddit thread.
Fellowship plays a significant role in the community of Monster Hunter Wilds. Because the chat itself is rarely used, especially relying on emotes and shortcuts, these unwritten rules are particularly emphasized, which new players need to learn about.
In the latest episode of the podcast Henke’s Corner, the Twitch streamer Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris talks about why he is annoyed by aging and why he thinks he has experienced too little in life.
What has MontanaBlack achieved? MontanaBlack is one of the most successful Twitch streamers in the German-speaking area. On Twitch, he has over 5.5 million followers and reaches an average of 31,864 viewers in his streams (via sullygnome).
Considering average viewers and excluding the event channel BALLERLEAGUE, MontanaBlack ranks first in the German-speaking area (via sullygnome). Additionally, he has a successful YouTube channel with over 2.9 million subscribers and several highlight channels where the best moments of his Twitch streams are uploaded.
Furthermore, the Twitch streamer has his own beverage brand GÖNRGY and can afford several sports cars with his wealth, including a Mercedes-AMG and a Porsche.
MontanaBlack is often criticized for his driving behavior:

Why does MontanaBlack think he has experienced too little? In the latest episode of Henke’s Corner, the interviewer Henke asks him if aging annoys MontanaBlack. The Twitch streamer responds:
I think the aspect that annoys me about aging is mainly that I have spent my entire youth and early adult years stoned, drunk, and high. I feel like I haven’t really lived my youth. That annoys me the most. I haven’t lived my life in my young years.
He further explains that he only really started to live when he began with YouTube. In the 12 years that he has already been active in YouTube and Twitch as a profession, he has only been on vacation 2 or 3 times. He says: “I feel like I have experienced too little” (via YouTube).
This feeling often comes when he watches documentaries. Just recently, he watched a documentary about Rio de Janeiro and became nostalgic. He feels he has traveled too little, in his opinion.
Even though he has the financial means to travel, for some reason he wouldn’t do it.
He also says that he definitely has a “great life” but has missed a lot of life before YouTube.
The question now is whether he has enough time to catch up on all of this, as he himself does not see the point where he can slow down. MontanaBlack also addresses other things from his past in this podcast. He talks about how he thinks about his previous remark ‘Women are like dogs’: Twitch: This is what MontanaBlack says today about the comparison of women and dogs

MMORPGs are extensive, complex and full of systems. Which online role-playing game should you best start with in the genre? MeinMMO presents you with 5 MMORPGs from 2025 that beginners can check out for their first time.
Modern online role-playing games are not as ruthless and potentially frustrating as they were in the old pioneer days. Nonetheless, getting into an MMORPG can literally be overwhelming due to its enormous scope, complex systems, and the freedoms of an open world, especially when trying an online RPG for the very first time.
Therefore, we would like to recommend you 5 representatives of the genre that we currently consider to be the most beginner-friendly MMORPGs on the market. It was important to us that
there is some sort of tutorial or understandable introduction to the basics, plus additional systems or features that make getting started easier
the MMORPG provides a red thread from the very beginning, leading through the quest and leveling experience
the difficulty of leveling and questing is suitable for genre newcomers as well
even genre newcomers can handle the combat system without any issues
you can get to know the game at your own pace before you have to or should team up with other players
the MMORPG is still actively played by enough players so that you can ask questions, trade or find connections to groups or guilds if needed
there is a way to try the game for free
If you know of any other MMORPGs that meet (almost) all of these points, feel free to drop them in the comments. Every list can be expanded after all.

Star Wars: The Old Republic
Setting: SciFi | Developer: formerly Bioware, now Broadsword | Platform: PC | Release Date: December 20, 2011 | Model: Free2Play | Rating on Steam: 89% Positive
What kind of game is this? SWTOR is a highly story-focused MMORPG set in the popular Star Wars universe. It places a strong emphasis on the story and interesting characters and requires moral decisions that can lead you towards the light or dark side of the Force. The dialogues are fully voiced.
The game uses classic tab-targeting. In addition to the story, the MMORPG impresses with the companion system, exciting endgame raids, housing and PvP content. You choose from 8 classes, of which 4 belong to the Republic and 4 to the Empire.
Start video
Star Wars: The Old Republic zeigt Grafikupdates im Trailer
Why is the entry here easy? After character creation, you will encounter a tutorial where you begin your personal story, learn the first mechanics, and become a bit familiar with the universe. Your class’s story then guides you fairly linearly through the leveling phase, so you should always be clear about where to go next.
SWTOR can be played very well alone, especially since NPC companions will join you during the adventure, who can effectively tank, heal, or deal damage. In story mode, you can even master most of the game’s dungeons alone.
The tab-targeting system of the game is somewhat more dynamic than comparable systems of older competitors, yet SWTOR plays significantly more leisurely than modern action MMORPGs. The entry into the game is possible for free.
What is tab-targeting? This refers to a combat system where you can switch between targets by pressing the tab key to select a specific desired target. After that, spells are cast that automatically hit the target.
Is there a catch? Although SWTOR is still among the 10 MMORPGs with the most players on Steam, the active players are spread across a very large game world, which can make many leveling areas feel quite empty. Depending on the time of day, it can also be difficult to get an answer to a beginner’s question in chat.

In the films of Star Wars, there is a detail that many viewers may not immediately notice. If you look at the position of the spaceships during space battles, you will notice that they mostly point upwards. What is the reason for this?
What do space battles in Star Wars look like? The fights between various spaceships in the vacuum of space are among the highlights of every Star Wars film – besides the lightsaber duels, of course. It’s simply fun to see huge tin cans shooting at each other, laser beams flying around, and smaller ships like X-wings performing spectacular maneuvers.
However, what seems a bit strange is that most larger ships always show with the “roof” upwards, meaning they are in the correct position to shoot at the opponent. This is strange because space is a three-dimensional realm, and essentially there is no up and down.
Realistically, each ship should appear on the battlefield in a slightly different position. This would create great chaos, and it would be difficult to hit anything. Some spaceships would be upside down to the opponent, while others would be tilted to the side. To solve this problem, the people in Star Wars came up with a trick.
Why do spaceships face the same direction? For weaker ships, it would even be advantageous to be upside down relative to the opponent. This way, they could not be easily or not at all hit, as the weapons are often mounted on the top.
YouTuber EckhartsLadder refers to a video where he consults the book “The Rebel Alliance Sourcebook.” It was published in 1990 and explains various aspects of Star Wars, including the problem with spaceships. It describes that especially humans and humanoid races find it very confusing to see a spaceship that is upside down. This significantly complicates battles.
Therefore, a tradition has been agreed upon: the ship that joins a battle properly aligns itself towards the opponent without further discussion. This creates order, and the battles closely resemble those of ships in water.
All spaceships fly correctly aligned.
Is the tradition valid for everyone? No, because not all races in Star Wars have the same feelings as humans. Those who feel more comfortable in three-dimensional space can even take advantage of the weakness of humans by deliberately flying upside down or sideways to their opponent.
However, most ships that we see in Star Wars are either piloted by humans or humanoid beings. Therefore, it is not surprising that they are almost always properly aligned and follow the aforementioned tradition.
Aside from that, it simply looks better and clearer for us human viewers in the cinema if spaceships are not flying around haphazardly in space. Besides practical benefits, it was certainly also an aesthetic decision from the filmmakers’ perspective. The creator of Star Wars wanted to do everything right in his film but still had a concern: George Lucas thought his most important film would be a flop

The developer studio Paradox Interactive creates complex historical strategy games on Steam such as Europa Universalis, Crusader Kings, or Victoria. With their new game currently titled “Project Caesar,” they live up to their reputation. A map of Europe is incredibly detailed and elaborate.
What is Paradox Interactive known for? The developer’s strategy games are extremely complex and consist of nested game mechanics to recreate historical processes and events, such as the increasing decadence of the Ottoman Empire or something like the overindebtedness of a state.
In Sweden, people make games that consist only of cards. No one knows how to play them, and people just stare at the maps for hours, watching them change colors.
Because from the outside, it seems as if nothing happens in a game, only the colors of the detailed maps change when a province changes hands. This “map obsession” is now taken to a new level by Paradox.
Europa Universalis IV is one of the biggest strategy games on Steam, and apparently a successor is on the way soon:

Paradox unveils extremely detailed map for Europa Universalis V
This is the new map they show: In a developer blog about “Project Caesar,” which will likely be Europa Universalis V (via paradoxplaza), Paradox now presents a map of Europe that appears extremely detailed and shows the fragmented Europe of 1337, meaning players will start around 100 years before the time where Europa Universalis IV begins.
Especially Germany is still divided into countless small states here.
On reddit, it is already being said that it seems like Europa Universalis V will be the most complex game from Paradox Interactive – in both a good and a bad sense.
What do you do in the game? The games by Paradox Interactive are sandbox games: players set their own goals. There are two main ways to play:
If you “build up high,” you limit yourself to a small amount of land and develop it as strongly as possible.
If you “build a blob,” you aim to conquer as much land mass as possible and “color the map,” thus establishing a large empire.
What do we know about this new game? Officially, nothing yet. The project is currently called “Project Caesar” and has not yet been officially introduced as Europa Universalis V.
However, there are already extensive developer blogs for the game.
The world of Warhammer 40,000 is filled with absurd and cruel methods of warfare. One strategy surpasses all others, at least in the human arsenal: Exterminatus. And several weapons in the imperial armory can trigger such planetary annihilation.
In the grimdark future of the 41st and 42nd millennia, a constant war rages between the Imperium of Man, Xenos, and the forces of Chaos. It’s not just about dominance in the galaxy, but also quite simply about survival.
At the center of most power struggles is the Imperium of Mankind, the currently dominant culture and the second strongest power in the galaxy. To ensure it remains this way, humanity has devised many means over the millennia.
From genetically engineered superhumans and fanatical warrior-priests to walking, armed cathedrals, everything is included. However, there is one weapon that is worse than anything else in the human arsenal: Exterminatus.
This high Gothic term for the annihilation of a world is the absolute last resort that the Imperium can undertake – and yet it has become widely known.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader – The release trailer for the role-playing game
The annihilation of an entire world to prevent something worse
An Exterminatus can only be requested by the highest-ranking organizations of the Imperium, such as the Inquisition, the highest Space Marines, Lord Admirals, or the Lord Commander himself.
The obliteration of an entire world means that all life on it is exterminated, rendering the planet uninhabitable for millennia. The decision is only made when there truly are no other options left to save the planet, such as when:
the corruption from Chaos has grown so great that it can no longer be contained and could spread to other worlds
an alien species resides on the planet that is deemed too dangerous
the necessary resources to reclaim the world greatly exceed the benefits
Essentially, an Exterminatus is only requested when it comes to preventing something worse than the loss of an entire world – such as the loss of even more worlds or a total military defeat.
Virus bomb, Cyclone torpedo, Lance strike – How do you destroy a planet?
“Exterminatus” is the term for the destruction of a world in general. However, the Imperium has several means to bring about such annihilation. Over the millennia, humanity has developed various weapons that can classify as Exterminatus, including:
Virus bombs that release a virus which spreads in seconds and can even penetrate seals. It turns all living things into a “bubbling mass” within moments, releasing combustible gases that can then be ignited.
Bioweapons (“Heraclitus”) that stimulate the growth of the planet’s flora and fauna to such an extent that they can grow over kilometers within seconds and consume nutrients and oxygen in mere moments. A few weeks later, nothing will be alive.
Precise “lance strikes” that hit a critical target, leading to a chain reaction that cracks the planet’s crust and transforms the world into a volcanic landscape.
Various torpedoes, including:
Melter torpedoes that burn hotter than any nuclear weapon and turn even great cities into a pile of molten metal and rock.
Cyclone torpedoes that either trigger a chain reaction that ignites the planet’s atmosphere or drill into the planet’s core to destabilize it from within.
Where the infamous Death Star from Star Wars merely blows up a planet with its laser, an Exterminatus sustainably destroys everything that ever was on the world. This is crucial because the ravenous Tyranids could still extract biomass from parts of planets, but not from a completely annihilated world.
The different organizations of the Imperium have their own “preferences” when it comes to Exterminatus. However, this decision is never made lightly.
Even the dictatorial Imperium tries to save worlds whenever possible. Usually not because of the negligible human lives, but because of the important infrastructure and resources on the planet.
When the bug aliens feast on a world, there is theoretically the possibility to make the planet habitable again through terraforming once the technology is available. An Exterminatus makes the world uninhabitable for millennia, often even permanently.
The Twitch streamer Killian “Tanzverbot” Heinrich has made a comeback with a video on YouTube on the evening of Easter Saturday, April 19, after a six-month break. He talks about his current state and his relationship with the streamer QuiteLola. He claims that Lola had something going on with the Twitch streamer Adam “SkylineTV” Wolke while she was still living with him. That had “broken” him.
Tanzverbot had a friendly but also romantic relationship with the Twitch streamer QuiteLola for years – there were apparently harmonious phases, but also recurring tensions. For some time, it was said that the relationship was over, they were “just friends” and asked fans to respect their privacy and let the topic rest.

Twitch streamer Tanzverbot talks about his difficult past, still regrets his lack of education
Tanzverbot explains the desolate state of his life, cries multiple times a week
This is what Tanzverbot says now: In a video for Easter Saturday, Tanzverbot has now made his comeback (via youtube). In the first half of the video, the 28-year-old explained that his own condition is desolate. He doesn’t know if he is depressed but suspects that he might be. He hasn’t left the house for months and cries multiple times a week; afterwards, he feels better.
The situation he describes sounds serious:
Tanzverbot has totaled his car
He has to leave his apartment due to the landlord’s need for personal use
Since he is not working as a streamer, the tax debts, which he had partially paid off in 2024, have accumulated again. The tax debt is as high as it was at the end of 2023, and he doesn’t know what to do
He says he only hangs out in front of the PC, is in VRChat, and sleeps until the afternoon
The Twitch streamer QuiteLola is known for her IRL content, such as travel streams.
Tanzverbot describes Twitch streamer Lola as inconsiderate
This is what he says about his relationship with QuiteLola: In the second half of the video, Tanzverbot holds his ex-girlfriend QuiteLola partly responsible for his current situation. She acted inconsiderately towards him. Although Tanzverbot repeatedly says that he is to blame for the situation, he describes in detail Lola’s misconduct, which he refers to as his “OnOffOnOff” girlfriend. This misconduct has taken away much of his will to live.
He says he has been quiet for a long time. But he can no longer stand that people on social media explain to him what a wonderful woman he let go and how good she was for him.
In reality, it is different. But because he is so impulsive and Lola so nice and composed, it always appears to outsiders that he is the “bad one” in the relationship. But “this person,” referring to Lola, has demanded a lot from him. However, because she is so professional, it always seems different to outsiders:
You all don’t believe what has happened. And I can’t stand this: Oh, that poor girl, she didn’t deserve that – I can’t hear it anymore. You don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes. Of course, I look like the bad one from the outside when she stands here next to me, with a plate of fruit.
Tanzverbot says:
QuiteLola had lived with her ex-boyfriend for half a year at the beginning of her relationship with Tanzverbot and slept in their shared bed
Then, against his will, she moved in with him, even though the apartment was so small
Adam SkylineTV Wolke – he is considered a world leader in IRL streaming because he guarantees extremely high quality in outdoor streams as a solo individual. He accompanies many Twitch events and streamers.
Tanzverbot says he got drunk and apologized to Adam
How did the situation escalate? The key moment for Tanzverbot was apparently an Instagram event where he had too much to drink. Tanzverbot says that Lola and SkylineTV spent a lot of time together at the event and mostly ignored him. He then sought a clarifying conversation while tipsy:
Then I went to him that evening. […] I got so lovingly, because when I’m drunk, I don’t become needily affectionate, but I don’t want to have a fight. I don’t become aggressive; I get all full of love. And then I told him: I know, Adam, you’ve probably noticed this as well. I’m really, really sorry for dragging you into our relationship drama.
After his apology, QuiteLola and Adam left the party together.
Tanzverbot only found out that something had actually happened between them when he helped Lola move into her new apartment.
This is really the craziest thing anyone could have done to me. It has taken away so much of my will to live.
Tanzverbot says that Lola also hit him in the face, and he had to lock himself in his apartment because she sometimes lost control during arguments.
The streamer says that the relationship with Lola has been “officially” over for a while, but they only finally separated on January 12, 2025.
On Easter Saturday, the video was hotly debated on social media:

What’s next for Tanzverbot? Tanzverbot says he is at a loss. He is on the verge of losing everything he has left and does not know how to move forward.
Under the video, Tanzverbot receives a lot of support from fans. They wish him strength.
What’s next for the others? SkylineTV and Lola are now being bombarded on social media with many questions and nasty comments on Easter Sunday morning.
On SkylineTV’s Instagram, comments say he is KnatterTV, FremdgehTV, and should be ashamed.
Regarding Lola, comments say it’s probably good for her IRL streams to have contact with the inventor of IRL, they should cancel her, and one asks if Adam is serious about her?
However, there are also some comments posting popcorn memes as a sign that they are sitting back and enjoying the drama.
Update 10:31 AM: In a statement on YouTube, SkylineTV has responded. He says that Tanzverbot previously referred to himself as highly jealous and told his community for over a year and a half that he was separated from Lola. Thus, he apparently lied to his community.
SkylineTV states that at the event, he only spoke with Lola and accompanied her to the taxi. In fact, Tanzverbot bombarded him with messages while drunk, but nothing happened that evening.
The accusations against him are unfounded. He would never start anything with a woman he knows is in a relationship.

In League of Legends there are 170 champions, and more are always being added. Not every champion can be popular, and this is also evident in the skins. One of the least popular champions has now set a new record that other champions can only dream of.
Which champion is it? League of Legends is full of interesting champions that you do not see regularly. One of the least popular champions is Skarner. According to op.gg, he is currently ranked 2nd among the least played champions, even though his remake made him more popular last year. Currently, only Rek’Sai is less popular (as of 20.04.2025, 12:00).
The fact that Skarner is not a popular champion can also be seen in his skin selection. As one player shows on Reddit, Skarner has set a sad record.
Start video
Das ist LoL – Einmal richtig ehrlich erklärt
A Sad Milestone
What kind of record is this? The user bladeofarceus posted a statistic on Reddit that deals with the time gap between new skins of many champions. Since 15.04.2025, Skarner holds the record for having at least 1000 days between all his skins. In total, he has only 5 skins, even though he was released in 2011. As the user Irini- (via Reddit) explains, Skarner received 2 skins at his release, meaning he has received only 3 skins in 14 years.
For comparison: Lux was released in 2010 and has 20 skins, soon 21. In contrast to Skarner, Lux is ranked 4th among the most popular champions. Other champions who have been waiting a long time for skins are:
Udyr (Release: 2009, only 6 skins)
Zilean (Release: 2009, only 7 skins)
Taric (Release: 2009, only 7 skins)
Urgot (Release: 2010, only 7 skins)
Rumble (Release: 2011, 6 skins)
Looking at which champions are popular, one notices that they tend to have more skins, even though they are not that old. Jhin was released in 2016, is currently the most popular champion, and has a total of 11 skins.
What is the reason for this? There is no official statement on this, but hypotheses can be made. On one hand, skins are meant to generate money in a free-to-play game. If a popular champion receives a skin, it is more likely to be purchased than if the few Skarner mains could buy a new skin.
Another possibility could be the design. The most popular champions are human or humanoid characters. From a design perspective, it is probably much easier to design a skin. For example, any human can be designed for the pool party theme.
Monsters like Rek’Sai or Skarner as a scorpion have a harder time. More creative ideas are needed to make them appealing to fans. Hardly anyone likely wants a simple color change. A creative idea is, for example, Pool Party Rek’Sai. They turned her hunting kit into a classic shark.
There is also no point in forcibly releasing a skin that fans will not buy because it is not creative.
