Former Head of Path of Exile Criticizes the New Class in Diablo 2, Finds That Content is Missing: “A Strategic Mistake”

Cedric Holmeier 20. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The former head of Path of Exile has commented on Diablo 2 and its birthday update. He believes that the developers made a clear mistake that he had to learn himself.

Who is it about? Chris Wilson is one of the former heads of Path of Exile and was for years the face of Grinding Gear Games for the fans. Some time ago, however, he left the company and has since been sharing his analyses of video games on his YouTube channel.

In his new video, he talks about the birthday update of Diablo 2. Here, with the Warlock a new class was introduced via Shaddowdrop and surprised the fans. However, for the expert, the patch was missing the most important thing.

Here you can see the new class from Diablo 2:

The content is missing

What does the expert criticize? The ex-head of Path of Exile is well-versed in attracting players back to their own ARPG with new patches. Thanks to his decisions, Path of Exile developed over the years into a constant success on Steam.

However, it is clear to him that Blizzard forgot the content with the update. He explains in his video that while the developers sparked the players’ interest with the new class, there are no new things to explore.

Quality of Life-updates, like the improved inventory, are nice features, but without real new areas, they hardly motivate anyone to return. Moreover, Blizzard made the mistake of showing the class beforehand already at the absolute endgame, which led many fans to feel that they had already experienced everything.

I think that could have been a strategic mistake […] My problem with this update is that it essentially comes down to a new character class, some quality of life features, and some new endgame content without an Act.

What should Blizzard have done, in his opinion? For him, it is clear: Diablo 2 should have received a new Act for its birthday alongside the new class. With new places to explore and bosses to fight, many more players would have returned.

He is sure: “A new Act would have almost guaranteed that everyone who had the opportunity to engage with Diablo 2 again would have bought and played the update.”

But Chris Wilson also has a theory about why Blizzard did not add an Act. The developers would have clearly received the birthday as the release date, while a new Act would have required an “additional year of development.”

But the price of the DLC also caused discussions among our readers: Fans of Diablo 2 defend the price of the new DLC after a strong start on Steam: “A bargain”

Shortly before the raid, Sauercrowd loses its bard and a mage who needed 6 attempts to level 60

Karsten Scholz 20. February 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

“Something very bad has happened” – When the experienced WoW streamer Sieglinde starts a clip with these words about Sauercrowd, all fans of the hardcore project know: There have been bitter losses for the Twitch guild.

Who got hit? Just before the first raid of the Sauercrowd guild in the Molten Core, two scheduled participants were caught in the dungeon Upper Blackrock Spire: Jan Hegenberg and Vassilly. The two mishaps happened during the fight against the final boss General Drakkisath.

What happened to Vassilly? The mage was tasked with pulling the boss and kiting him out of the room so that the rest of the group could safely fight the boss’s minions. The streamer had never performed this important extra task before, so the details did not go smoothly.

For example, he didn’t stand at maximum range during the pull, and the first Blink came a bit too late – which was probably crucial considering mishap number 2.

Start video

WoW: Guild loses 30 characters on a hardcore server – And it wasn’t even a boss fight

Autoplay

When mages pull the boss’s threat, they cast – if the group gives the okay – Ice Block, so the boss returns to the group. Depending on the distance, the duration of an Ice Block may not be enough for Drakkisath to be collected by the now-free tank. Then the mage must reset his Frost cooldowns with a spell and cast Ice Block again.

The latter was apparently not on Vassilly’s mind. After his Ice Block expired, he wanted to run back to the group and suddenly stood in front of the dragonkin. The boss first hit him and then unleashed a fire attack called Fireball, which deals high damage over time and leaves the victim staggering for several seconds with no chance of survival. Without a nearby healer, one cannot survive this.

An analysis of the two hardcore deaths can also be found on the YouTube channel of WoW veteran Sieglinde:

Bad luck at the wrong moment

What happened to Jan Hegenberg? Before Drakkisath left the room to chase Vassilly, he briefly stood still to leave a Flame Burst for the group (which is a harmful area on the ground where one should not stand). He also cast Fireball on Jan Hegenberg’s rogue – who unfortunately was still standing in the Flame Burst at that moment.

A lot of damage hit the rogue in a very short time, who, due to loss of control, could not run out of the damage zone.

The healers now faced the challenge that Jan Hegenberg needed a massive amount of healing for ten seconds, while the tanks also received significant hits from the elite guards (with one even having a healing-reducing effect on him).

Prioritizing the tanks in such a situation is understandable. Especially since Jan Hegenberg should never have been able to receive a Fireball – it always goes to the highest on the aggro list, which is usually the tank.

How could this have been prevented? Vassilly should have cast Frostbolt twice from maximum range, then Counterspell, and then as quickly as possible cast Blink to minimize the chance of the boss stopping briefly. With two Ice Blocks in a row, the mage would also have surely lost the boss’s aggro.

Additionally, one minimizes the danger by allowing the tanks to first securely gather the two elite guards while the rest of the group enjoys the show from a safe distance and only then attacks when Drakkisath has gone and the minions are positioned. However, the truth is that the Fireball on Jan Hegenberg was ultimately just bad luck.

More about Sauercrowd:

Sauercrowd sets the 40 Twitch streamers for the first raid, Metashi and HandOfBlood play it safe

von Karsten Scholz

Why are the two hardcore deaths so bitter? For several reasons:

Both level 60 characters had an incredible amount of playtime and progress invested.
On February 22, the first raid of Sauercrowd will take place, and Jan Hegenberg and Vassilly were firmly scheduled for the day.
Jan Hegenberg is the bard of the Sauercrowd project and a living legend within the WoW community through his songs. Seeing him in the Molten Core would have been really great. He would surely have provided great entertainment here and there.
Vassilly worked hard to reach level 60 and get into the raid. It took him 6 attempts. Time and again, he suffered fatal mishaps during so-called AoE leveling (where you gather many enemies and blast them with the mage’s frost spells).

According to MeinMMO reader Brati, Vlesk and Ray will take the places of Jan and Vassilly on Sunday in the raid – thank you for the tip!

How to use Super Mega Raids?

The Super Mega Raids will be a new, challenging experience in Pokémon GO. The key points:

The raids will be difficult; the Pokémon GO team announces that you need at least groups of eight for this. Legendary ones may require even more.
Every trainer should deploy a Mega Pokémon in battle.
The Super Mega Raid Pokémon can go into a rage and use shields.
Every trainer can only break one shield. Therefore, you need many people.
Mega Pokémon can break the shields more easily.
There are more rewards, such as more Mega Energy.

During the Kalos Tour: During the Kalos Tour, Super Mega Raids are expected to bring you an increased shiny chance for the defeated Pokémon and a higher likelihood of strong values.

How can I participate? Info on Link Charges and Pass

The new Link Charges will be a resource that can be used for the Super Raid participation.

On-site, you have a choice:
- Use Link Charges
- Or a Premium Battle Pass, i.e., the usual Raid Pass
As a remote raid, you must use a Remote Raid Pass and Link Charges.
Link Charges can be earned through weekly challenges, gifts from friends, or community meetups.

What does the new Super Max Level bring?

This new Mega Level represents an enhancement of the previous three Mega Levels.

For the new Mega Level, you need to use Mega Energy. Therefore, one must earn it first.
Your Pokémon will receive significantly increased CP at the Super Max Level.
The candy, XL candy, and XP bonus when catching Pokémon of the same type will be increased.
The Mega cooldown period of your monster will be reduced to 24 hours. This means you can Mega evolve it once a day without energy costs.
Apparently, the Super Max Level will not be available for all Mega Pokémon from the start. The debuting Mega Sarzenia and Mega Calamanero will have the option during the Kalos Tour.

WoW admits to having “lost something” because dungeons are too much e-sports

Cortyn 20. February 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

Dungeons in World of Warcraft have lost some of their magic, and that is due to Mythic+. But something new is supposed to fill this gap.

Dungeons in World of Warcraft are no longer what they once were – for better or worse. Especially in the endgame, “Mythic+” is mainly about performance, skill, and speed. The dungeons are quite linear and designed exactly for that. But this doesn’t have to last forever, as not everyone likes this e-sport aspect of the dungeons. A gap that Labyrinths are soon to fill.

Start video

WoW Cinematic with Liadrin: Everything Holy

Autoplay

What are Labyrinths? Labyrinths are a new type of content coming in Patch 12.1.5 – that is, later in the course of Midnight. They are basically “Mega-Depths” that are divided into many large areas and are not reset between visits within a week. Anyone who wants can play through a labyrinth continuously, but that will likely take several hours. Those who prefer a different approach can tackle the labyrinth piece by piece alone or with friends. That’s exactly what should bring back a feeling that has long been lost in WoW.

Labyrinths are supposed to bring back the old dungeon feeling from Classic

What was said? In an interview with PCGamer, Blizzard talked about what the upcoming “Labyrinths” are supposed to be and how they are meant to bring back something that may have been lost over the years. Dylan Barker from the WoW team (Encounter Designer) explained:

Depths have shown us that there is a great hunger for them. Not just for something that fills small time slots, but something you can go into alone, where you press the buttons, feel your class, fight a few real monsters, and be rewarded with real loot.

Paul Kubit notes that there used to be something similar in dungeons back in the day.

If you remember back in Classic, we had dungeons like Maraudon, Blackrock Spire, and Blackrock Depths, where we had around 20 bosses in a dungeon. That’s not something that happens now – dungeons mostly have 3 or 4 bosses and maybe we have lost something in the process. (…)

Perhaps, with the aim of the specific ‘Mythic+’ mode, we no longer have those ‘weekend projects’ where you just get lost in a cave with a few friends and clear it completely.’

However, it should be noted that these huge dungeons from Vanilla WoW were also so large because the developers designed them with the expectation that all players would only play them once.

Nevertheless, this is a feeling that they want to bring back in the future:

This fantasy RPG feeling of getting lost in a big dungeon no longer exists in the dungeons – but it could come back to life in Depths when you look at something like the Labyrinths. So this is something that Labyrinths are supposed to achieve on an emotional level.

Is it really Mythic’s fault? Basically, one has to say: No. Because large, confusing dungeons where you could lose yourself for hours have not existed long before the introduction of Mythic+ either. Already in the first expansion, The Burning Crusade, many dungeons were divided into “wings” that represented their own dungeons. Just think of the 3 instances in Zangarmarsh or the dungeons in Hellfire Citadel on the Hellfire Peninsula. So Dungeons were already reduced to smaller areas with only a handful of bosses in The Burning Crusade.

At the same time, Mythic+ now also makes it difficult for developers to deviate from this system again. Because now every dungeon is developed directly with “Mythic+” in mind, so large dungeons with a confusing design almost never occur anymore. The only exception here are the “Mega-Dungeons” that come into the game from time to time – but even they have become more linear.

New players, meanwhile, have entirely different problems in World of Warcraft that will become even more apparent in a few weeks. Because if Blizzard does not drastically revamp the early game, returning and new players could be massively deterred: “They will think the game is a joke”

If the Emperor from Warhammer 40,000 existed in Fantasy, he would be Karl Franz – Who is this powerful human?

Ody 20. February 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

No matter if 40,000 or fantasy: An empire of men from Warhammer is nothing without its emperor. In fantasy, this role falls to a man named Karl Franz, but who is he actually?

A major source of inspiration for the empire of men from Warhammer Fantasy was the Holy Roman Empire. For this reason, a small excursion into history:

The Holy Roman Empire existed from the Late Middle Ages until 1806 and was a union of numerous territories in Central Europe.
This empire was ruled by an emperor who was elected by the electors of the individual countries in the empire – the office was not directly hereditary.

The empire from Warhammer Fantasy is very similar: It is located in the center of the Old World and consists of many smaller provinces. The empire is constantly in turmoil – whether due to external threats like marauding orcs or electors vying for the emperor’s throne.

Not only politics but also the names of the provinces, cities, and figures of the empire are German-influenced. The full name of the current emperor Karl Franz is, and this is really no joke: Karl-Franz I of Holswig-Schliestein.

In the trailer for Immortal Empires for Total War: Warhammer 3 shows Karl Franz his skill as a diplomat:

Start video

Total War: Warhammer 3 – Launch Trailer Immortal Empires

Autoplay

Chosen of Sigmar, Warrior and Diplomat

And here we are again with the man of the hour: Karl Franz is the elector of Reikland, a province in the center of the empire. There lies also Altdorf, the largest and richest city of the empire and its capital. Karl Franz ascended the throne in the year 2502 of the imperial calendar, with year 0 marking the founding of the empire by Sigmar Heldenhammer.

Karl Franz is not only emperor but also Sigmar’s chosen one. The legendary founding father is currently worshipped as a god during Karl Franz’s time. His powerful warhammer Ghal Maraz, a gift from the Dwarves, has become the symbol of his cult (and over time also of Warhammer Fantasy).

By the way, Sigmar’s hammer is the same weapon with which Karl Franz goes into battle – a sign of his authority as ruler. His mount of choice is a mighty griffon named Deathclaw. He raised this creature himself when it was still a chick.

This may all sound as if Karl Franz rules the empire through sheer strength. And he is undoubtedly a powerful warrior who prefers to fight at the front with his troops. But in a world where there’s constantly only war, he also recognizes the value of diplomacy. Many say that Karl Franz is even the best statesman and diplomat in the entire Old World.

A Defender Until The End

The final days of Warhammer Fantasy were also spent by the emperor protecting his people from dangers from outside. First against the undead of Sylvanian in the east, then against the great hordes of chaos that came from the far north.

When Karl Franz later fell in battle against a powerful champion of Nurgle, he was revived by Sigmar himself. In the process, he eliminated any corruption from the chaos god of pestilence and drove off its champions. 6 crazy chaos champions can be found in our list.

Shortly before the end of the world, Karl Franz even received a power-up from Azyr, the blue wind of magic. This wind influences the weather and allows skilled wizards to summon storms and even comets. But even with the power of Azyr, Karl Franz couldn’t stop the downfall of the world.

The world of Warhammer Fantasy is ancient, thousands of years older than Karl Franz and Sigmar. Many powerful beings existed long before them. Which among them are the oldest, you can find out here: Mystical beings have created the world of Warhammer Fantasy, but there are 3 “people” that are even older.

With these 6 tips you can improve the atmosphere of your sessions in Dungeons & Dragons without having to pay much

Caroline Fuller 20. February 2026 Reading time 8 minutes

Compared to video games, a campaign in Dungeons & Dungeons in tabletop does not come with pre-made music, visuals, or cinematic cutscenes. Here, the imagination of the players and the Dungeon Master is especially required to fully immerse into the adventure. MeinMMO editor Caro presents you 6 tips to enhance this imagination with some helpers – and they don’t even have to be cumbersome or expensive.

In Dungeons & Dragons and other TTRPGs, one primarily relies on one’s own imagination and creativity when the group embarks on the adventure. Whether it’s cool combat maneuvers, an intense conversation between friends or foes, or simply a strong setting presented by the game master: All this is played at the table but mostly takes place in the mind’s eye. It’s no wonder many players say their campaigns feel like a true movie or series in their head.

To support this feeling and make your sessions even more intense and atmospheric, there are various “immersion helpers” that can assist you. My D&D group and I have discovered over a year and a half what things can actually enhance the atmosphere.

Of course, there are examples like Critical Role, Dimension 20, or other famous D&D groups, who create particularly slick immersion through their livestreams. However, they usually have higher expectations and a correspondingly higher budget than a regular friends group for their D&D sessions.

However, that does not mean one must completely forego a nice atmosphere.

In this list, we present 6 tips that can enhance the atmosphere of your D&D sessions, as well as budget-friendly ways and personal tips that have already excited my group.

When gathering in person to play Dungeons & Dragons, you can quickly create a suitable mood through the design of the room.

Many imagine the famous role-playing party basements, tabletop tables, and converted screens that one yearns for on social media. However, it is also possible to set the right atmosphere much cheaper and with less effort. Only the fewest groups possess all these resources, let alone the space for it. Many groups rely on their living room or, as in my case, the kitchen as a play area. Yet, there are many ways to create more mood here.

Light sources, intensity, and color

Light is a significant factor in creating mood, no matter the occasion. And likewise for D&D. Perhaps you already have a dimmable lamp or even one where you can change the color. But even candlelight feels different immediately than a bright ceiling light, which, at the right moment, can be even more effective than a flickering fire.

With the right lighting, you can quickly transport yourself to a cozy tavern, a dark and cold dungeon, or a chic and bright ballroom.

Personal tip from Caro: An unexpected light or color change immediately draws attention and brings even the most distracted candidates back into the game.

Everyone knows the Hulk, but hardly anyone knows what he really is

Niko Hernes 20. February 2026 Reading time 3 minutes

The Hulk is one of the most iconic and oldest heroes of Marvel. After all, he made his first appearance 64 years ago. But he is more than just a green monster.

Like many of the legendary Marvel heroes, the Hulk was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby. The superhero first appeared in the comic The Incredible Hulk No. 1 in May 1962.

Those who know the movies are likely aware that an explosion transformed scientist Bruce Banner into the Hulk. But there is more to it than meets the eye.

The Gamma Energy Comes from a Horror Being

How was the Hulk created in the Marvel universe? Bruce Banner is a nuclear physicist who primarily studies gamma radiation. With options running out, he worked for the government in a desert in New Mexico. There, he researched the gamma bomb, comparable to the atomic bomb, but with gamma radiation.

One day, a test of the gamma bomb took place. However, a civilian sneaked into the base. Banner asked a colleague to stop the bomb’s countdown, but he did not. The Soviet Union agent intended to kill Banner with this. Banner saved the civilian, but was hit by the bomb. Thus, the Hulk was born.

For a long time, this was the story behind the Hulk, but with the entity “The One Below All”, gamma radiation was given another layer. This is basically the dark form of the god “One Above All”, who created the multiverse and everything in it.

After One Above All learned that Vinruviel, the mother of all horrors, exists even though he did not create her, he attacked her. However, she managed to attack him back and infect him with her dark energy. He transformed into One Below All, killed all of Vinruviel’s children, and imprisoned them in a void from which they cannot escape (Source: Marvel Database).

One Above All transformed back, but his dark side continues to exist.

After 63 years, Bruce Banner is no longer the Hulk in Marvel, and his successor is even more terrifying than you can imagine

Green Doors and Avatars

What does the One Below All have to do with the Hulk? In the Marvel universe, gamma energy is a form of radiation that only exists thanks to One Below All. As Screen Rant describes, it is a mix of divine power and the dark energy of the mother of all horrors.

After One Above All transformed back, his dark alter ego did not disappear. The entity One Below All exists in the Below-Place, the lowest edge of reality. This place is connected to the real world through Green Doors. These are closely linked to gamma mutants, beings like the Hulk.

When Bruce Banner was struck by the gamma bomb, such a door opened, and he actually died. But through the place, he was revived and became the Hulk. However, the entity’s goal is not to create strong heroes and villains.

One Below All cannot act itself, only in the form of avatars connected to its place. It exists for one purpose: to destroy everything that exists.

While the lore explanation for the green hero is already intriguing, it is also worth examining the sources of inspiration for the Hulk.

Famous Literary Figures as Inspiration for the Hulk

How did Stan Lee come up with the idea for the Hulk? In an interview (via YouTube), comic legend Stan Lee revealed that he wanted to create a monster that is actually the good guy, but nobody knows it. For this, he drew inspiration from Frankenstein’s monster and the novella The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde from 1886.

Frankenstein’s monster comes from the novel Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, which was published in 1818. In the interview, Stan Lee specifically mentions the actor Boris Karloff as an inspiration, who portrayed the monster in the 1931 film adaptation.

Frankenstein’s monster is a creature that was never meant to be created and is feared by all, despite being innocent. This parallels the Hulk. He is a different consciousness from Banner with his own feelings. He is useful when it comes to defeating villains, but outside of that, he is feared for his strength and unpredictability. This contradiction is addressed in the comic series Planet Hulk.

The Hulk is lonely, and though he has superhero colleagues, he still seems like an outsider.

On the other hand, there is The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It tells the story of Dr. Jekyll, a clever and respected scientist. However, he has a dark persona in the form of Mr. Hyde, which he can bring out with a serum. Hyde is violent and evil (Source: bbc.com). While Jekyll initially has control, he gradually loses it throughout the novella.

This is the parallel to Banner. When he is the Hulk, he usually does not have control, but it is his anger that transforms him into this “monster”. This raises the question: Is the Hulk really a separate identity, or is it a suppressed personality that has always been dormant in Bruce Banner and was unleashed by the gamma bomb?

New face of 7 vs. Wild wants to make the series better again: “The last seasons weren’t that great anymore”

Cedric Holmeier 20. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

A survival YouTuber was approached for 7 vs. Wild and addresses his viewers in the video, as his opinion is divided.

Who is it about? Johannes is one of the creators of the YouTube channel “Real Life Guys”. The channel primarily features outdoor content, which now revolves very much around the creator himself.

Thus, the channel belongs more in the category of bushcrafters like Survival_Mattin or “7 vs. Wild” founder Fritz Meinecke, who, in addition to mere survival in extreme situations, also build cabins in the woods, grow their own vegetables, and conduct self-experiments.

Now the creator has been approached by 7 vs. Wild for the new sixth season of the survival show and is asking his community for advice.

Knossi has naturally become the face of 7 vs. Wild:

The Fritz Problem

Why is he asking his viewers for help? In a new video, the outdoor YouTuber explains that the production of 7 vs. Wild has invited him to the new season. He emphasizes that this has been a dream for him for several years. However, he did not like the last seasons where Fritz Meinecke was not present as a candidate or was not involved at all.

The thing is, I think a lot of you will agree with me that I didn’t find the last seasons really that great. So, I think it was no longer what it once was. […] I also have to admit that I haven’t watched the last seasons at all, so I actually wanted to decline. But I thought it would be really a shame because I would have loved to be part of the first seasons.
Johannes from The Real Life Guys

Especially the solo isolation seems to bother the creator. He emphasizes that for him, the format was exciting only because of the solo isolation. Accordingly, the participant already wanted to decline but told the responsible person that he would be willing to participate in a season that would be like the initial one again.

How did the officials react? The officials of 7 vs. Wild explained to the YouTuber that the upcoming season 6 is supposed to be exactly how he wishes it. According to the YouTuber, they have acknowledged the criticism and want to return the format to where it originated.

However, it is still unclear whether this only pertains to the solo isolation or further fundamental changes. Nevertheless, the YouTuber has communicated some of his wishes to the production. These include:

Solo isolation for a longer time than two days
7 items that the participants could choose themselves
Communication regarding the season
More participants from the bushcraft and survival sector who can carry out construction projects

At the same time, he encourages viewers to write their own suggestions for the project in the comments, which the creator would like to go through with the makers of 7 vs. Wild in a video.

HandOfBlood wanted to collaborate with another streamer, but he was afraid of getting involved in a scam

Johanna 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The Twitch streamer HandOfBlood and Ludwig Ahgren entered into a special kind of collaboration: they played games produced by each other. However, Ludwig was afraid that HandOfBlood might pull a fast one on him.

Who collaborates with whom? The streamers HandOfBlood and Ludwig Ahgren are both big names in the Twitch sphere. A collaboration is nonetheless unusual, as HandOfBlood is famous in the German area while Ludwig is more known in the US but also generally in the international sphere.

In October 2025, the two came together nevertheless, albeit only indirectly. They agreed that they would each play the other’s produced game in their stream. For Ludwig, this meant: he plays Deadly Days: Roadtrip, published by INSTINCT3. HandOfBlood was supposed to play Aethermancer, published by Ludwig’s company offbrand games.

Playing Deadly Days: Roadtrip turned out to be more challenging for Ludwig than he thought. At first, Ludwig forgot the name of the game and then also forgot the name of HandOfBlood.

In a stream, HandOfBlood reacted to a clip of Ludwig (highlight on YouTube) and found it delightful. HandOfBlood then shared a bit more about the contact between Ludwig and himself.

“That’s Ragebait.”

What kind of scam was Ludwig afraid of? According to HandOfBlood, Ludwig was afraid that the German streamer could trick him. In Ludwig’s alleged fear, HandOfBlood would wait for him to play Deadly Days: Roadtrip but would not return the favor.

HandOfBlood tried to assuage Ludwig’s concern with a direct message on Discord, in which he wrote that he did not want to scam him. Ludwig supposedly only said “Hello” 1 to 2 days later, and the next thing HandOfBlood saw was the stream in which Ludwig plays Deadly Days: Roadtrip.

Once in the game, Ludwig initially wandered almost endlessly in the game’s lobby before he even properly started the game. The confusion shocked HandOfBlood, and the shock grew when Ludwig shortly thereafter – despite having looked at the map – wondered where he was. Finally, HandOfBlood commented on the whole thing: “That’s Ragebait.” (Source: YouTube).

Bethesda’s Head Crushes Hopes That Fallout Could Be Released as a High-Quality Remake

Jasmin Beverungen 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

While the Fallout series has just received a season 2, the prospects for a new video game in the Fallout franchise are currently bleak. Todd Howard from Bethesda explains in an interview that even the older titles are more likely to be released as remasters rather than remakes.

What about a remake? In a video on the YouTube channel of Kinda Funny, Todd Howard, Executive Producer at Bethesda Game Studios, discusses remakes and remasters. He explains that he personally has more of an anti-attitude towards remakes:

I am rather against remakes. I respect other remakes, but I really believe that the age of a game is part of what makes it, its personality and what it stood for when it was released.

Instead, he mentions The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion as a good way to re-release a game for modern audiences. There, the team tried to create the best version of the game, as if the original game had been given countless patches.

Howard himself respects remakes, but he is personally more in favor of remaster versions. This crushes the hopes of many players concerning a new addition to Fallout, as seen on Reddit.

What does this mean for Fallout? Howard also addressed rumors about possible reboots for Fallout. He confirmed that the most investment would be made in Fallout, including the series. Behind the scenes, several Fallout projects are being worked on. However, most of the focus is currently on The Elder Scrolls 6.

Thanks to his previous inclinations, we know that if there are reboots for Fallout 3 or New Vegas, they will be more in the style of Oblivion as remasters and not as completely newly developed remakes.

What is the difference between remaster and remake? A remaster takes the original game and adapts it for modern hardware. This includes improving both the visuals and enhancing comfort. An example would be the Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

A remake means a complete redevelopment of a game. Usually, a more modern graphics engine is used. The idea and the world remain the same but are interpreted as a new game. An example of this is Final Fantasy VII Remake.

The drama surrounding Highguard forces Palworld to confirm that there are no secret investors

Jasmin Beverungen 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of Palworld repeatedly counter their haters in a funny way. This time they have to defend themselves against accusations that they are only successful because they have secret investors.

What are these allegations? The origin of the accusations came from Highguard. The game was announced in the last slot at the Game Awards, which is traditionally reserved for promising blockbusters. However, the shooter flew under the radar of the players, and the studio had to lay off the first developers just 3 weeks after release.

Recently, reports surfaced that Highguard was secretly funded with money from the Chinese tech giant Tencent (as read on Game File). This led to wild speculation on X: Highguard only got the coveted spot at the Game Awards because Tencent’s Vice President Steve Ma sits on the board of the Game Awards under organizer Geoff Keighley.

As part of the conspiracy theories, Palworld was also mentioned. According to some players, its massive success is also supposedly due to secret investor money, possibly even from Tencent, the fans said on Reddit. Geoff Keighley has posted so much about Palworld because he is involved with the game.

But the developers do not take this sitting down and have responded to the claims.

Developers of Palworld defend against accusations

What do the developers say? The Head of Publishing & Communications at Pocketpair, John “Bucky” Buckley, once again defends against the accusations. He has had to dismiss other criticism in the past and counters with a direct manner.

He clarified on BlueSky:

I never thought that Palworld would be involved in any way. Palworld has no investors, no backers, no sponsors. Geoff and no one else has shares or stakes in Palworld. We are 100% independent and self-financing. I believe Geoff is just enjoying the excitement around our launch!

What is the connection between Palworld and Tencent? If you think of a connection between Palworld and Tencent, it is probably this one: Tencent has apparently commissioned several studios to develop a game like Palworld. The goal is to create a better game than the inspiration.

Additionally, Pocketpair uses Tencent Cloud for Palworld (as read on prnewswire.com). This is the server division of Tencent, where they are supposed to maintain huge multiplayer servers stably. However, this has nothing to do with the funding of the game.

The last series of Game of Thrones is not even over, and the teaser for the 3rd season of House of the Dragon is already coming out

Johanna 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

The last “Game of Thrones”-series has just ended, and the teaser for the 3rd season of House of the Dragon is already here.

Which “Game of Thrones” series is currently airing? Currently, the spin-off series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is airing on HBO Max. The series tells the story of Ser Duncan the Tall, Egg, and their adventures.

It has a much more humorous tone than the main series Game of Thrones. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms takes place between the main series Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

The sixth and final episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has not been released yet and will not come out until February 23, 2026. While fans still want to finish watching this spin-off, the first teaser for the other spin-off series House of the Dragon has already been released.

You can watch the teaser here:

What is shown in the teaser? So far, the teaser does not reveal too much about the plot of the 3rd season. However, what is definitely hinted at is the further escalation of the conflict between Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower.

Rhaenyra plans her further military moves from Dragonstone, while Alicent is mostly afraid of her dragons. Too many plotlines can’t be determined from the teaser yet; they will probably only come in the official trailer.

How is the community reacting? Overall, the comments under the teaser on YouTube seem to be positive. After the 2nd season of the “Game of Thrones” series evoked rather mixed feelings in the community (read more on IMDb), anticipation for more time in Westeros seems to have risen again.

Attention: The following section contains spoilers for the 5th episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

The top comment highlights the seemingly quick release of the teaser after the not-even-finished conclusion of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: “The grave of Baelor Targaryen is not even cold, and HBO has already decided to release the trailer for HOTDS3.”

This refers to the death of the character Baelor Targaryen, who met a tragic end in the 5th episode.

Monster Hunter Wilds: Sealed Dragon Cloth – How to Get This Fluttering Equipment Piece

Alexander Mehrwald 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

In Monster Hunter Wilds there is a piece of equipment that makes you the most daring hero of all time: the flowing Sealed Dragon Cloth α. What you need for it and how to get it will be explained here.

Where do you get the scarf? To own the scarf and use it as decorative armor for your perfect outfit, you need to complete the event quest “Running Wild” and gather enough materials.

The quest has been permanently available in the game since February 18, 2026, so you can complete it whenever you want. Here are the requirements and tasks you need to fulfill:

Have reached at least Hunter Rank 21
You must be able to visit the Ruins of Wyveria
Hunt a Guardian Fulgur Anjanath during the quest

Whether you catch it or slay it is entirely up to you. Also, whether you play the quest in online or offline mode is up to you – both are possible.

Upon completing the quest, you will receive the material “Sealed Dragon Cloth.” You need exactly 4 pieces of this material to craft the item. What else you need and how to quickly gather the materials will be explained in the following paragraph.

With these tips, quickly get the coolest scarf from Monster Hunter Wilds

What do you need for the scarf? Fortunately, it may be enough to complete the event quest “Running Wild” a few times. To craft the scarf at Gemma in the forge, you need:

4 × Dragoncloth Scarf
- Can only be obtained in exactly this event quest
3 x Guardian Fulgur Anjanath Nose+
- Can be obtained when you defeat a G.-Fulgur-Anjanath in high rank
2 x Guardian Blood
- Can be obtained from all Guardian monsters
5 x Robust Guardian Bones
- Can be obtained from Guardian monsters with some luck

You can also obtain all materials in the event quest itself, as the Guardian Fulgur Anjanath can supply all the required items if you have some luck.

How can you obtain the materials with minimal effort? The easiest way to increase your loot chance is to eat the appropriate meal that grants you the buff “Lucky Meal.” This causes you to receive more materials at the end of a hunt. As a result, you will also get more of the rare materials that require some luck.

You can either prepare such meals yourself, consume them at Kunafa, or exchange them for vouchers at the Great Site.

Then join ongoing quests and help other hunters complete the quest to save time. This tactic is also worthwhile for all other materials you want to farm.

Creators of DayZ on Steam know a cheat code for better games, but only the fans can use it

Cedric Holmeier 19. February 2026 Reading time 2 minutes

No gamer would say no to better games. The boss of the legendary survival game DayZ on Steam believes that players have the cheat code in their own hands and just need to use it.

Who is it about? DayZ was originally a survival mod by developer Dean Hall, who transformed the military simulation Arma 2 into a zombie game. Today, DayZ is one of the enduring hits on Steam, with over 50,000 players at peak times during the day.

Its creator Dean Hall released his next game, “Icarus,” in 2021. In line with the console release, he recently discussed his work as a developer in an Ask-Me-Anything. He also explained how players can get better titles.

Here you can watch the trailer for DayZ:

Start video

This is DayZ – This Is Your Story

Autoplay

The cheat code is in the hands of the players

What kind of cheat code is that? In the format, the developer explains that players can take charge of getting better titles. The trick is to make it clear that they don’t care about delays and that a better product is much more important.

The gaming industry is currently geared towards meeting release dates at any cost. This leads to unfinished features being left in the game, and the titles simply do not achieve the quality that was planned. That was likely the case for him too:

I believe that most delays arise because the quality is not achieved […] And even when developers want to deliver quality, they don’t have the money to achieve it. So they try to hide or ignore it. This happened with the release of Icarus, and we paid for it with mixed reviews on Steam.

When the studio had more financial security, we tried to break this cycle. But it’s hard. We play the game before release like a consumer (without cheating). Then we hold “Go/No-Go” meetings where we discuss whether we have achieved the quality we aimed for.
Dean Hall

He further explains that there are many different points that justify a delay of video games. These can also be petty, such as too few missions, unworthy loot, or too many bugs that spoil the game.
