Fortnite: Patch 32.11 – What do leakers say?
What can I expect with the upcoming update? Primarily, Epic Games might still upload some important files for the upcoming live event. Season: Remix is soon coming to an end, and the finale will be celebrated with a concert by Juice WRLD.
Additionally, Epic Games has released a blog post (via fortnite.com), in which they have presented their new collection of shoes. According to the post, these are set to be released on November 22 after the release of Update 32.11.
What could happen at the live event? Regarding the live event, Juice WRLD will hold a concert – like the one from Travis Scott back then. His skin will perform various songs and entertain the players. What songs those will be and whether Juice’s concert can top Travis’s is still unknown – but we will keep you updated.
In mobile games, the issue of money plays a central role – as it does with the newly announced mobile offshoot of Final Fantasy XIV. In an interview, producer Yoshi-P has now revealed that FF14 Mobile will explicitly refrain from a common approach.
Shortly thereafter, fans expressed concerns about how the game would be financed. Many feared the introduction of gacha mechanics to generate revenue (via reddit.com). Producer Yoshi-P has now provided reassurance in an interview (via X.com).
Here you can see the reveal trailer for the mobile game:

“I would be happy if you just enjoy the game”
What does Yoshi-P actually say? The producer mentions in the interview that there should be a focus on ensuring that every player can enjoy the game for as long as possible, while monetizing as little as possible.
He specifically rules out gacha mechanics as a potential means of financing. It is important to them that as many players as possible can access the game without having to worry about high costs.
We primarily had one thing in mind when designing the mobile game: How long can a mobile user play this game? We want every single player to enjoy FFXIV for as long as possible. Therefore, our goal is to allow as many players as possible to play the game while we earn only a little money from monetization.
How is this received by the community? The fans are relieved by the announcement (via X.com) and are discussing possible alternatives. It is conceivable that monetization will primarily occur through cosmetic in-game purchases or via a subscription fee, as is the case with the main game of Final Fantasy XIV.
However, some players are skeptical and do not believe that the mobile offshoot of FF14 can keep these promises. For instance, they worry that the chosen approach may not generate the desired revenue or that other entities within Square Enix might not approve of these plans.
What is a gacha mechanic? This is a game mechanic that usually requires the spending of in-game currency. The name originally comes from “Gachapon,” which is the Japanese term for capsule vending machines that dispense toys and similar items at random.
Gacha is a common variant in mobile games to generate revenue. Players can usually earn the in-game currency needed or purchase it for real money. For this currency, players then receive a “draw” in which they can get random rewards.
This mechanic is problematic primarily because it possesses various gambling elements. These can quickly become addictive and lead players to invest large amounts of real money to obtain desired items.
Destiny 2 has many years behind it, giving players the chance to accumulate items and achievements that are now considered rare. Therefore, we show you the rarest things from the loot shooter. Do you have any of them?
What are these items? This is a small collection of various items in Destiny 2 that players could obtain, but are no longer available. You had to either be there from the beginning or engage in the most difficult activities at the time to even have a chance at these items or things.
Primarily, this concerns armor, weapons, and cosmetic items. We will show you which items these are and what you had to do to get them.

Faction Fight Armors
What are these items? These are the armors and ornaments of the faction fights. This event started in Season 2 and 3 and had Guardians compete against each other in the name of the three available factions:
Future War Cult
New Monarchy
Dead Orbit
Unfortunately, the event was unpopular and caused fans to grind in a dull manner for faction tokens in countless Lost Sectors and other grindy activities. The event never returned, and so the opportunity to obtain these ornaments faded away.

What are these items? When the Trials of the Nine replaced the Trials of Osiris, there were three sets of ornaments that players could obtain. Parts of this armor were only awarded to those who had achieved a Flawless Ticket (9 wins without a single loss) and then won additional matches.
All Flawless ornaments from the Trials of the Nine (via. DestinyTracker)
The armor is a real eye-catcher, and anyone who sees it knows that they had to sacrifice a lot of nerves to obtain a set. Unfortunately, the armor can no longer be earned because the mode was replaced by the Trials of Osiris.
Items from the Leviathan Raid
Which items are meant? The Leviathan raid offered various variations of its encounters, as well as different loot. However, some of these items are rarer than one might think. Especially the emote “Luxurious Toast” from the Eater of Worlds or the ghost shell “Adept Shell” from the normal Leviathan Raid is considered very rare due to their low drop chances at the time.
But the special challenge armor from the Eater of Worlds is also a sign that you faced the most difficult activities back then and emerged victorious.

Redrix Claymore and its Ornament
What kind of weapon is this? Redrix Claymore should not be confused with Redrix Broadsword. The pulse rifle from Season 3 could be obtained by Guardians from the Crucible, when they reached the fourth glory rank “Famous” in Competitive. If you then achieved the “Legendary” rank, Shaxx would grant you the super-rare ornament “Glory and Honor”.

Items from the Revelry and Crimson
Which items are meant? The Revelry (Spring event) and Crimson (Valentine’s Day event) are both events that have been removed from the game. Both had a lot of cosmetic content that fans could obtain according to their themes. If you still have these in your collection, you’re lucky, as they will not return (as of November 21, 2024).

With the Kone II Air, TurtleBeach has introduced another mouse within the Kone series.MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann has taken a close look at the gaming mouse and explains in the test whether the gaming mouse is worth it for your own desk. Because in the all-rounder category, there is tough competition from Logitech, Razer, and SteelSeries.
What device is it about? With the Kone II and the Air variant, TurtleBeach has introduced a new gaming mouse for all-rounders. In terms of design and structure, it is very much inspired by the Kone XP Air (to the test) and the old Kone AIMO Remastered from Roccat. Roccat has been discontinued by TurtleBeach and the peripherals are now published only under the TurtleBeach brand.
In my test, I took a detailed look at the Kone II Air. In the test, I explain what the mouse does well and whether this model can be recommended. The predecessor, the Kone AIMO Remastered, is still one of my favorite mice, aside from the annoying mouse wheel. This is mainly due to the excellent ergonomics of the old Kone AIMO Remastered.
I now own over 20 gaming mice and have tested over 15 keyboards. Privately, I now also have over 10 sets of in-ear headphones. At MeinMMO, I have been testing hardware for our readers since 2019. In addition to the PC and the PS5, I am also using the Steam Deck now.
Our review sample was provided to us by the manufacturer.

Scope of delivery, design, and construction
What does the scope of delivery look like? In addition to the gaming mouse, there are also USB-C cables, a transmitter for the wireless connection, grip tape, and a printed manual in the box.
How is the mouse built? You can currently buy the mouse in black or white, I use the white model in the test.
On the top of the mouse are the main buttons and between them is the mouse wheel. On the top in front of the mouse wheel are two additional buttons: With one button you can change the DPI, and with the other button, you can set whether the mouse wheel should scroll stepwise or continuously.
On the bottom, there is a slide switch that allows you to turn the mouse on or off and switch between Bluetooth and wireless connection. You can also plug the transmitter into the bottom of the mouse to prevent it from getting lost.
The mouse is permanently sealed; you cannot replace the built-in battery.
The Kone II is available in both wired and wireless versions. The wireless version can be recognized by the “Air” in the name.
Interestingly, TurtleBeach has omitted a charging station for the Kone II Air. Such a charging station was still available with the Kone XP Air. Razer also offers a similar charging station for its high-priced mice, such as the Basilisk series.
By the way, the old charging station of the XP Air is not compatible with the Kone II Air, as the connection for it is missing on the bottom. Therefore, you can only charge the mouse wirelessly.
In terms of design, a similar lighting as with the old Kone AIMO Remastered has been chosen: Two glowing stripes on the top and a gentle lighting for the mouse wheel. Overall, the design looks sleeker and more modern than the translucent design of the XP mice.
TurtleBeach Kone II vs Kone II Air
The similarities: Basically, both gaming mice feature the same technology: the same switches under the buttons (optical Titan switches), the same lighting, and the same sensor (Owl-Eye sensor with 26,000 DPI).
What are the differences? The Air variant is a wireless version of the Kone II. This means you can connect the Kone II Air to your computer via a wireless adapter or Bluetooth. The standard Kone II is only wired.
The wireless mouse is heavier due to the battery than the wired model: The Kone II weighs 90 grams, while the wireless Air version weighs 110 grams.
Another difference is the price: The standard version costs around 70 Euros, while the Air variant costs 60 Euros more (129.99 Euros).
TurtleBeach Kone II Air (middle), Kone XP Air (left), and Roccat Kone Aimo Remastered (right)
Processing
The Kone II Air features a sturdy plastic chassis. In the shaking test, you only hear the mouse wheel softly rattle, otherwise everything is secure and stable.
In the past, I had annoying problems with the mouse wheels of former Roccat and now TurtleBeach mice. During my almost 6-week testing period, the mouse wheel has not let me down so far. If that should change, I will update my test article accordingly.
Software
TurtleBeach continues to rely on the software “Swarm II” for its Kone II Air. We are now at version 1.0.0.15. In general, I have to praise TurtleBeach for continuously improving the software in recent months.
What I like: Overall, it can now convince me:
All important features and functions of the mouse are quickly and clearly laid out on one page.
The software and drivers can be easily and quickly updated via Swarm II.
The menus are understandable and in German, and each menu item has a tooltip with additional explanations. That’s commendable!
Also good: TurtleBeach refrains from aggressive self-advertising or marketing for products or events. This keeps the software slim and focused on what matters.
What doesn’t convince me: Menus cannot be freely arranged and can only be scaled to a certain size. Also unfortunate: The white-gray color scheme of the software cannot be changed. This is especially annoying if you are colorblind, as the software offers little customization here.
For Swarm II, I would at least wish for an additional color alternative, and the font could also be a bit larger and bolder in some places.
Swarm II: Basically okay, but only available in one color. White on gray is readable, but not perfect. The font could be larger in some places.
Weight, ergonomics, and battery life
The weight: The Kone II Air weighs 111 grams on my kitchen scale without the cable and transmitter inside. This means TurtleBeach is again moving away from mice that weigh significantly less than 100 grams. For comparison:
The Razer Basilisk Ultimate (to the test) weighs about 107 grams. By now, there are several newer variations of the Basilisk, all of which weigh similarly.
The wired Kone II also weighs “only” 90 grams and is otherwise technically identical to the Air version.
TurlteBeach Kone II Air (middle) vs Logitech G502X (right) vs Basilisk V3 Pro (right)
The ergonomics: I have very large hands with a size of 19 centimeters. What stands out to me is that the mouse has become a bit wider compared to the XP. I am only talking about half a centimeter, but as a result, the hand rests much more comfortably in a palm grip than it did with the XP.
Compared to the XP, the mouse has also become longer (13 vs 14 centimeters), which makes palm grip even more comfortable. This means that the heel of the hand rests much better. In my eyes, a step in the right direction.
Battery life: The manufacturer states the battery life is up to 350 hours. However, you can only reach this if you use the mouse via wireless connection and also turn off the lighting. Otherwise, it lasts about three to five days for me, depending on how extensively I use it.
This means that especially Logitech and Razer have the edge in battery life while SteelSeries lags slightly behind with its Rival 5.

The mouse buttons, mouse wheel, and sensor
The mouse buttons: Under the buttons, there are optical Titan switches. These no longer sound as hollow as they did with the “Kone XP” series, but they do sound very sharp. This makes the clicks feel much more solid than the dull “thunk” of the XP. Overall, I find the sound more pleasant than the metallic ringing that can be heard with the G502X Lightspeed.
The mouse buttons are definitely not quiet, but are quite audible. You must like the loud clicking.
The mouse wheel: TurtleBeach uses a 4-way mouse wheel, and you can also set how you want to use the mouse wheel: free-running or stepped. This works just like the mouse wheel on the G502X Lightspeed. A feature that I have enjoyed using with Logitech. By the way, this works just as well with TurtleBeach. You can also find this feature with Razer in the Basilisk series.
The mouse wheel is always a concern with TurtleBeach and Roccat mice. After all, the mouse wheel of the AIMO Remastered and the Burst Pro became a complete failure at some point, but the Kone II Air is still working perfectly so far. Problems, however, usually did not arise until after 6 months.
By the way, a Logitech mouse (G Pro X Superlight) has now experienced the same defect with its mouse wheel, where you can no longer scroll smoothly. This is therefore not a specific problem that you will only find with TurtleBeach.
TurtleBeach Kone II Air and Logitech G502X Lightspeed
Sensor: The mouse features TurtleBeach’s proprietary Owl-Eye sensor. Roccat already used this sensor in their mice, and it also appears in the newly branded TurtleBeach models.
I tested the sensor on a standard cloth mousepad. The sensor causes no problems in the test, and the measurement results are within the normal range. Only with very fast and sweeping movements, which hardly anyone does in everyday life, there are a few sensor errors that deviate from the normal curve.
In comparison, look at the sensor of another mouse, also at 1,600 DPI. You can clearly see here: The sensor of the Kone II works much cleaner and better than the sensor in the other mouse.

Conclusion: Great ergonomics, good battery life, high price
For whom is the mouse suitable? With the Kone II Air, TurtleBeach aims to offer another alternative in the Kone series. Compared to the Kone XP, it appears much less playful and more focused on the essentials, which benefits the mouse significantly. In particular, the fact that the mouse is half a centimeter wider than the XP makes it ergonomically much more attractive and resembles the old Kone AIMO Remastered strongly again.

However, at 129.99 Euros, the Kone II Air is not necessarily the most price-attractive mouse. The wired variant (without Air) is better positioned at 69.99. However, I assume that the Kone II Air will settle around 100 Euros, and here it could become quite attractive. Especially compared to the rather expensive Basilisk.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
What alternatives are there?
The Logitech G502X Lightspeed is, in my opinion, the best alternative: a long battery life, a design that is almost understated for a gaming mouse, and good software. You can regularly get the mouse for under 100 Euros. However, the loud switches under the buttons may take some getting used to.
The Basilisk V3 Pro is very expensive at around 150 Euros (RRP: 179.99), but it offers the best sensor and an extensive feature set. Weighing 112 grams, it is just as heavy as the Kone II Air.
The SteelSeries Aerox 5 is another good alternative that you can regularly buy for about 80 Euros. It is significantly lighter than the competition at 74 grams, but the ergonomics is unfortunately not perfect (sniper button). The battery life is okay but cannot keep up with the competition.

Many characters from Ranma 1/2 suffer from a transformation curse because they fell into a cursed hot spring. MeinMMO reveals to you which are the coolest transformations from the anime and manga.
What are these curses? In Ranma 1/2, there is the Jusenkyo. This is a legendary training ground where poles protrude from a field full of hot springs. However, the springs are cursed.
Whoever falls into such a spring transforms into the being that drowned in that spring upon contact with cold water. This can be an animal or another person. Only upon contact with hot water do they regain their original form.
MeinMMO has selected the coolest transformations that exist in the anime and manga. The rankings are completely subjective and based on the opinion of MeinMMO editor Jasmin Beverungen. If you disagree, feel free to write it in the comments!
Warning, spoilers: Place 4 only appears in the manga of Ranma 1/2. So if you plan to read the manga and don’t want to get spoiled, read Place 5 and go directly to page 2.
Ranma 1/2 is currently celebrating a re-release of the anime:
Start video
The anime of Ranma 1/2 is getting a reboot in October 2024
The 5 best transformations from Ranma 1/2
Place 5: Pantyhose Taro
He transforms into a wild mixture of animals.
First appearance: Episode 121 of the anime
Transformation: Yeti-bull-crane-eel-octopus
The probably most curious transformation must be endured by Pantyhose Taro. He is one of the villains in Ranma 1/2. He has had his curse since birth, as his mother gave birth to him right next to the Jusenkyo springs. Happosai, the master of Ranma’s father, accidentally bathed the newborn in a spring where several beings had already drowned.
Since then, Pantyhose Taro transforms into a hybrid creature of several beings. He has the head and legs of a bull, but his upper body is that of a yeti. He has the wings of a crane growing on his back, and his tail is an eel. Thus, he combines many useful traits from several animals that he can use to his advantage.
Place 4: Rouge
So far, Rouge has only appeared in the manga.
First appearance: Chapter 334 of the manga
Transformation: Asura
Rouge appears when she is searching for the character in our 4th place. She is a girl who fell into the source of Asura. In Buddhism, these are powerful demigods, and Rouge becomes one of them. In this form, she gains a total of 6 arms and 3 heads.
However, simultaneously with her form, she gains incredible powers. She can fly, summon lightning, spit fireballs, and create a protective shield. Thus, she becomes the ultimate weapon and would probably have landed in 1st place in the ranking if it were only based on strength.

The pack points in Pokémon TCG Pocket are a good way to obtain missing cards. However, you cannot save them indefinitely.
What are pack points? Every time you open a booster in Pokémon TCG Pocket, you receive 5 cards. With a bit of luck, you can even hit a God Pack and score 5 rare cards. In addition to the cards, you also receive the so-called pack points corresponding to the booster series with each booster.
You can use these to obtain cards that are particularly difficult to find in boosters. You exchange the pack points directly for the corresponding card. Depending on the rarity of the card, the cost for this is higher or lower.
But you have to be careful – because pack points are not everlasting.
Start video
Here are the 3 best decks for Pokémon TCG Pocket!
With the booster series, the points also disappear
When do pack points expire? In Pokémon TCG Pocket, just like in the real Pokémon trading card game, new booster series are released over time. According to the developers of TCG Pocket, even a new booster series is set to release this year.
While in the real Pokémon trading card game older boosters eventually stop being printed and thus automatically disappear from retailers, there will also be an expiration date for booster series in TCG Pocket. When a series disappears from the game, the pack points will also expire, and you will not be able to exchange them for cards anymore.
You can find a corresponding notice in the game when you click on the “i” in the pack points menu.
Is there already a specific expiration date? No. As of now, there is no specific date known for when the first booster series will be removed from the game and your pack points will expire.
It is assumed that Pokémon TCG Pocket will inform players in advance and will not suddenly remove the series from the game.
Nevertheless, you should keep in mind that the points do not last forever, and therefore you should use them before they expire. You should also spend them when you have already collected 2,500 pack points, as this is the maximum and you cannot collect any more points.
Diablo 4 is in the middle of its sixth season and due to a bug, the Spiritborn leaves the other classes far behind in terms of damage. Now there is a new bug that helps other classes. But Blizzard wants to fix that right away.
What kind of bug is this? The new bug in Diablo 4 brings real joy to players: When the Elixir of Antivenin is used, players are flooded with health points, turning their character into a damage sponge.
Normally, the elixir increases maximum health by 15% for the next 30 minutes of gameplay. However, due to the bug, players not only receive the extra 15% but suddenly have millions of hit points. A Reddit user shows his Barbarian who suddenly has over 2.1 million hit points. Even 400,000 hit points would normally be a lot.
With the new bug, it leads to the damage of the Spiritborn going negative (via Reddit). This is obviously not intended, and Blizzard is responding.
You can see what Diablo 4 looks like in the current sixth season in the trailer:
Start video
Diablo 4: Der Gameplay-Trailer zur 6. Season, der Saison des aufsteigenden Hasses
Class Nerfs in the Season? No. Unwanted Buffs? Yes.
How is Blizzard responding? In a post on X.com, Adam Fletcher speaks up. The Global Director of Community for Diablo states that they want to respond to the reports regarding the Elixir. Specifically, Patch 2.0.5a is expected to come as a PC patch, as well as a server hotfix. This will likely reduce the effect of the Elixir of Antivenin back to the maximum 15%.
In a reply tweet, he states that more information will be shared in the live stream on November 21, 2024. He also announces a PTR for Patch 2.1.0.
Why is this significant? Blizzard’s patch policy actually states that bugs are only fixed during a season if they can impact the experience of other players. OP builds remain in place; the Spiritborn, for instance, will not be fixed until Season 7.
Accordingly, the announcement that they want to quickly fix the Elixir bug is raising eyebrows in the community. Under Fletcher’s post, there are some cynical comments:
Let me translate. If it’s not a bug with the Spiritborn, then get lost.@Nixor_QQ via X.com
Just leave it until the end of the season. There’s no reason to take away the fun now. There are only just over 6 weeks left. Let us enjoy it and you focus on the upcoming PTR and class balance for Season 7.@tacticalgh0st via X.com
You should let the potion bug stay, just like you did with the Spiritborn. That’s the only thing saving the other classes right now while the balance is so skewed. Why not vote to keep this bug like your beloved Spiritborn? I’m tired of spending gold to have Spiritborn run hell for me.@MightyMouth2009 via X.com
According to a user on Reddit, this bug actually represents a larger problem. The negative numbers indicate an Integer Overflow, where a value exceeds the space allocated for it. Specifically: Instead of 264 damage, you see -263.
Presumably, the Diablo 4 team will address the situation again in tonight’s live stream. Whatever else is announced, you will also read about it on MeinMMO. By the way, the last major mid-season patch lets you collect more embers again. However, a large part of it cannot be used.

The regularly occurring Timewalking events in Azeroth take you back to old dungeons from the World of Warcraft. There, you’ll encounter not only high-level veterans but also characters that are still green behind the ears. Thanks to level scaling, that’s not a problem!
Why is the community celebrating a tank? The WoW player Scrumshiz was lucky enough in his recent Timewalking runs to come across a very good tank. This tank is said to have led the entire group at a high pace through several dungeons – which is always a stroke of luck.
After all, you want to waste as little time as possible fulfilling the associated quest that requires you to master five current Timewalking instances.
How well-equipped is this tank? Scrumshiz dared to take a look and was so surprised by what he saw that he immediately took a screenshot of the tank’s character window and posted it on Reddit.

The Vulpera warrior was only level 11, skillfully focused on Fury, and rather poorly equipped – with just three epic items and otherwise only rare ones. However, that’s enough to get the talent Titan’s Grip and to arm himself with two two-handed shovels along with a lifesteal enchantment.
WoW community praises small tank for big performance
How does the community react to the tank? Many commentators celebrate the Vulpera player, and the post on Reddit has received over 2,800 upvotes.
TheWorstDMYouKnow writes on Reddit: “This is what top performance looks like.”
HeirOfRhoads recalls (via Reddit): “Lol, that must be the same guy who helped me level my twink to 80 with his level-11 Fury, but he was playing as a dwarf. The best part is that he did it for free, but I sent him 20k gold to thank him anyway. :)”
HaroerHaktak explains on Reddit: “I love running into these people. You get dragged along like a wet sock stuck in your boot, bringing nothing but inconvenience and the smell of two-day-old mold while they slaughter bosses before you even arrive.”
WoW has been declared dead several times. This video addresses three of those points:

Experts exploit level scaling to race through dungeons
Various players are also discussing the level scaling of the Timewalking dungeons, which makes such things possible in the first place.
Warcraft_Fan writes on Reddit: “The scaling is terrible, a level 11 can almost go it alone, everyone who comes with Timewalking just cleans up behind the tank.”
Lamumba1337 recalls (via Reddit): “I had a similar guy with level 10. He dealt 90% of the damage. I just ran along beside him and tossed a few heals his way.”
Not just warriors can do this, explains Adm_Piett on Reddit: “Had one of those in my group another day, a level-11 monk who cleaned Zul’Farrak in 5 minutes with his Crane Kick. His damage was over 300 million.”
If you want to try something like this, make sure your character stays under level 20. From that point on, the level scaling in the Timewalking dungeons is supposed to weaken significantly. In the capital cities, you can activate the XP stop at the experience eliminators. By the way, since Patch 11.0.5, there are also classic WoW dungeons as Timewalking.

In 2023, several new MMORPGs have been released that we want to introduce to you in detail. What kind of games are they and whom are they interesting for? And how do they perform in 2024?
What kind of MMORPGs are they? In this list, you will find games that were released in 2023. However, they must have had a full release or an Early Access release. Titles in Alpha or Beta have not been included.
The article was originally created by Alexander Leitsch, who was the MMORPG expert at MeinMMO for a long time. From now on, the article will be updated by his successor Karsten Scholz, who has been editorially involved with the genre of online role-playing games almost daily for 15 years.
The last update is from November 21, 2024. We have mainly updated the respective “How is it performing currently” sections.

Setting: Medieval | Developer: Black Eye Games | Platform: PC | Release Date: February 7, 2023 | Model: Buy2Play | Servers offline: October 31, 2023
What kind of game is this? Gloria Victis is a sandbox MMORPG where you have to seek your own content. The medieval game world is dark and brutal. PvP is an important element:
The game does without classes. Instead, you level up skills.
It uses an action-packed combat system reminiscent of Mount & Blade, where you have to aim yourself.
There are PvE content like group quests, events and raids.
Crafting with 15 different professions plays an important role.
In principle, PvP is possible everywhere in the game. There are 3 nations, and you can join one of them. These players are your friends, and the other two are your enemies. In most areas, there is a “No Loot” rule. However, in some regions, you can lose one piece of equipment per death to another player.
Additionally, there are 1v1 arenas to prove your own skill.

MMORPG Gloria Victis – Gameplay Trailer
Who is it interesting for? Gloria Victis is primarily aimed at PvP and medieval fans who do not place a big focus on graphics. While there was a graphics update in 2022, you can still see that the game is developed by an indie team from Poland.
How is it performing currently? After the release, the number of players first rose noticeably. Previously, around 500 people played simultaneously during peak times, but a few days after the release, it was over 4,100. However, the trend did not continue.
Setting: Fantasy | Developer: Com2us | Platform: PC, Android, iOS | Release Date: March 1, 2023 | Model: Free2Play
What kind of game is this? In Summoners War: Chronicles, you choose one of three playable characters, the so-called Summoners, each of whom has a unique role and brings their own skill set.
Who is it interesting for? Those who have already played other games from the “Summoners War” series will feel right at home here. Even some characters from other titles can be found here. Otherwise, the MMORPG is primarily aimed at people who enjoy collecting characters, like in Genshin Impact, but with a greater focus on multiplayer.
Additionally, you need to have a fondness for constant rewards and pop-ups. There are rewards for daily logins, daily playtimes every five to 60 minutes, achievements, level-ups, daily and weekly challenges, seasonal events, and two battle passes.
How is it performing currently? The MMORPG launched strongly on Steam with nearly 40,000 concurrent players. Almost four months later, around 8,000 were still logging in simultaneously at peak times. Currently, the daily peak is approximately 1,600 active players simultaneously
The reviews are 77 percent positive with around 11,618 opinions submitted. The 40 reviews from the last 30 days are also at “Mostly Positive” with 77 percent positive ratings. The main criticisms are directed at the payment model, the gacha elements, and the noticeable mobile game roots.

When the upcoming Minecraft movie showed its first teaser, fans were skeptical. The new trailer is now received much better, but everyone agrees: With Twitch streamer Gronkh it would be even cooler.
What is up with the trailer? On November 20, 2024, the first full trailer for the upcoming Minecraft movie was released. After the teaser was too childish for many in September, this version is now receiving much more approval. However, everyone agreed: With Gronkh it would be much cooler.
And indeed, the Twitch streamer has a surprise for his fans.

What role does Gronkh have? The Twitch streamer will apparently take on the role of the narrator. He announced this while playing Minecraft with the “Who’s Who” of the German scene as part of the Craftattack project. Gronkh can’t reveal much more, as the cheers from the creators around him are so loud.

Why were people hoping for Gronkh? Many viewers, as well as some of the people who are now among the biggest German-speaking streamers, grew up with Gronkh and his Let’s Plays – especially with Minecraft. Therefore, a Minecraft movie without him is hard to imagine for many German Minecraft fans.
One of the top comments under the German version of the trailer on YouTube with over 300 likes reads: “Instead of Jason Momoa, they should have used Gronkh.”
The Twitch streamer Papaplatte also announced in his reaction to the new trailer (via TikTok): “Yeah, somehow the trailer is more exciting than the first one, right? […] I don’t find it that utterly terrible.” High praise from someone who has spent well over 1,000 hours in Minecraft alone on Twitch.
Papaplatte mused:
What would be crazy is if they included Gronkh as a voice actor in the German version for something.
As “crazy” as the idea is: Apparently, the producers of the movie thought so too.
Data from Pokémon GO is used by Niantic to train an AI. And it has quite specific areas of application.
Artificial intelligence (AI), is a major topic in the public eye, especially since the release of ChatGPT. Many companies are working on their own AI models for various applications.
Niantic, the studio behind Pokémon GO, is also one of them. For their in-house AI, they utilize data from the trainers of Pokémon GO among other sources.

Scan PokéStops to Train Robots
What kind of data does Niantic use? According to their own statements, Niantic primarily uses data from players of Pokémon GO and Ingress to train their AI. In the case of Pokémon GO, this involves field research where you need to scan a location and receive rewards for it.
This data then contributes to their AI called “Niantic Visual Positioning System” (VPS). So far, they have been able to fully capture over 10 million scanned locations in this way, of which over a million of these locations are already part of the AI. Additionally, Niantic receives over a million new scans of locations weekly.
How is the data used? While AI models like ChatGPT are what are called “Large Language Models” (LLM), which use millions of data from texts to train the AI, Niantic’s model is different.
They call their model “Large Geospatial Model,” thus translated as large geodata model. Instead of generating texts, this AI is intended to be used for navigating computer-assisted systems through the real world.
This includes applications such as AR glasses. The abbreviation AR stands for “augmented reality” and describes the visualization of virtual objects in the real world – like in Pokémon GO.
Robots and other autonomous systems also belong to the application area that is expected to benefit from Niantic’s AI. They should be able to navigate through the real world independently using this data.
The AI is also expected to be used in their games to enable new features. A current example is the Playgrounds in Pokémon GO, which are currently being tested.
In addition to rewards for scanning PokéStops, there are many other contents in Pokémon GO where you can be compensated with special rewards. Most of the time, you will find strong content in the game’s events. You can also find an overview of the current events in November 2024 in Pokémon GO with us as well.

A player worked unpaid for a company for 2 months. In the end, he was rewarded for his work with a gaming PC that he also had to assemble himself.Many people from the community say they would also like to have such an employer.
A player tells on Reddit that he received a powerful gaming PC from his employer. He did an internship at an unspecified telecommunications company for several months for a course at college. However, he did not receive any payment for this multi-month internship.
After the internship, the company eventually hired him and asked him to build a gaming PC for the office and then present it. And then came the surprise. This is how he tells it on Reddit:
Yesterday they told me to present it in the office and in the end, they said it belongs to me for the unpaid work I did.
He explains that the PC represents a significant upgrade from his old system: Previously, he had a computer with a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti and an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G. The RTX 3060 Ti is an entry-level graphics card that is still sufficient for Full HD gaming if you can forego ray tracing.
How long did he work unpaid? He explains in another post that he worked for 2 months, 2 days a week at the company. So about 16 days.
What can the new computer do? The new computer is a high-end setup. With the AMD Ryzen 7 7800x3D, he has the currently best processor for gaming, and with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090, he can’t find a faster graphics card at the moment.
CPU: Ryzen 7 7800x3d
GPU: GeForce RTX 4090 gaming x trio
RAM: DDR5 6000mhz Dominator
Mainboard: AORUS x670 ELITE ATX
Case: Lian Li 011D Evo
For just the processor, you would currently have to pay at least 479 euros, and for the GPU (RTX 4090), at least 1,900 euros. In total, it is roughly estimated that the gaming PC must have cost around 3,000 euros.

Appreciation Instead of Pure Profit Motive
How are the reactions? The Reddit post has received over 25,000 upvotes within 14 hours. This also shows that many are excited about the gesture from the employer or at least view it favorably.
For example, someone comments under the post that he has to pay for parking at work and use his own MacBook Pro just to get his job done. His employer does not offer any friendly gestures in return.
Another user explains that it is not really about the powerful gaming PC. The company shows that it is not just about mere profit but also about appreciating the work of its employees. And that is really rare in a world where everything is geared towards profit and gain (via Reddit.com):
Aside from that, work studies are a great tool for students, as they allow them to gain real-world experience and make real mistakes from which they can learn with minimal investment, which is incredible. You knew what you were getting into, and they did too. And then they give you more than you expected. That alone is great. A top-notch gaming PC is just hard to come by for a college student, I would dare say almost impossible.
If that happened to me, the company would have earned my loyalty simply by being so kind. I would go through hell for good managers who value me more than just the profit I bring to the company. With motivation and support, you turn hard-working people into loyal employees. Basically, it is just human compassion.
During the Corona pandemic, many companies were forced to shift to remote work and let their employees work from home. But now many companies want their employees to return to the office. The head of an IT company recently forced an employee to return to the office. But the “revenge” came when the employee used a legal trick: Employee is forced back to the office by the boss – he gives in, later has his moment of triumph

SUPERVIVE has entered Open Beta and is available for everyone to play. After the demo was successful at the Steam Next Fest, the new version is also likely to find many fans.
What is SUPERVIVE? The game is an unusual mix of various genres. On one hand, you view the battlefield from above like in a MOBA, for instance League of Legends. However, you control the various heroes directly and aim with the mouse – similar to a shooter. In terms of modes, the game follows the Battle Royale principle, or offers an arena mode.
The wait is now over, and SUPERVIVE can be played by everyone. However, the game is not yet finished; the current version is a beta. Nevertheless, interested players can try it out for free.
Here you can see the trailer, which already gives a good impression of the game:

SUPERVIVE: Trailer for the Mix of MOBA and Battle Royale on Steam
More content than in the demo – Here’s what’s included
What does SUPERVIVE offer? If you enjoy fast-paced and action-packed battles, the genre mix could be something for you. With one of 16 selectable heroes, you will compete against each other in teams while being quite mobile, running, jumping, and gliding around.
Although the game is still unfinished, it already offers various modes and features that have been somewhat expanded compared to the demo:
Battle Royale in team mode (4 players per team)
Battle Royale in duo (i.e., two players per team)
Arena (4 against 4 players)
Special event modes that are unlocked depending on the occasion
Numerous powers and equipment items that can be combined
According to the developer, the heroes and the numerous customization options during matches allow for exciting games. It should be possible to turn around matches that were thought to be lost even at the last moment.
How can you participate in the beta? SUPERVIVE has been released on Steam, and interested players can simply take advantage of it there. The game can be downloaded for free from the official shop page.
A proud number of players have already done so. The game was only released on November 20, 2024, but has already reached a player peak of over 23,200 concurrent users (via steamdb.info). This is remarkable for a game of this magnitude.
How is the game received? On Steam, the first players have given their reviews, resulting in a “very positive” rating. The mix of various genres is particularly praised, which feels fresh and new. SUPERVIVE takes the good elements of the genres and leaves out the bad ones. Moreover, the game runs smoothly.
A player has achieved what many collectors in Pokémon TCG Pocket are currently striving for. He has collected every single card from the “Unbeatable Gene” booster. Along the way, he reveals interesting facts that give other players insight into what one needs to invest for the complete collection.
What experiences did he have? The player likely did not just collect the cards by opening his daily 2 booster packs. He reportedly spent a whopping 1,423 euros to acquire the last card. For the basic cards, only 190 euros would have been spent.
Before he had all the cards, he would have had to open 1,741 packs and collected 8,582 cards. During this time, he pulled 4 cards of the rarest tier, but unfortunately not one of each Pokémon. One card, Pikachu-ex, he would have needed to buy with the pack points earned from opening booster packs.
The most difficult to collect for him were the last 3 Full-Art cards of Venusaur, Gengar, and Machamp. His last card that he needed to collect was of Machamp.

Other players in TCG Pocket are glad there are excessive collectors
What else has he discovered? In addition, the collector shares other interesting facts that are exciting for trainers who do not want to invest so much money:
When all the cards are together, there is supposedly no special reward for it.
The lack of a reward could stem from the fact that not all Pokémon are included in the game yet. The collection of collectible Pokémon is gradually being expanded, making it nearly impossible to collect all the pocket monsters.
What do other players say about this? In the comments of his associated Reddit thread, some users congratulate the collector. Many players express their gratitude that he invests so much money and that there are such “whales” like him. This could allow the game to continue for a long time.
As one user writes, in mobile gaming, 1% of players are responsible for 58% of app revenue. This could also be the case for Pokémon TCG Pocket. This is from a report by the statistics website Gitnux.
Due to the many duplicates, the collector can at least look forward to the trading feature that comes into the game in January 2025. What new features will be waiting for trainers in the coming weeks, the development team revealed with a small roadmap: Pokémon TCG Pocket reveals first roadmap, bringing new boosters, trading, and events

The fourth season of 7 vs. Wild has recently sparked various discussions. The highly requested uncut material will not be released. Much to the disappointment of the community and Fritz Meinecke himself.
What kind of decision is that? As the fourth season of 7 vs. Wild is slowly coming to an end, the community is wondering whether there will be uncut material for this season as well. Fritz Meinecke has now denied that, but hinted that he himself is not completely satisfied with this decision.
The reason for this is a conflict that has built up over the course of the show’s episodes.
The Twitch streamer Trymacs was a contestant in the third season of 7 vs. Wild. We introduce him to you in the video:

Uncut material could provide clarity
Why is the uncut material important? In the fourth season of 7 vs. Wild, tensions steadily developed over the course of six episodes between Stefan Hinkelmann and the other contestants. Especially the survival expert Joe Vogel repeatedly found himself in conflict with his colleague.
These tensions were not only felt within the show but also continued on to the live reactions on Twitch of the two participants. Here, Stefan claimed that the editing misrepresented him and that many events unfolded quite differently than portrayed. He insisted on the uncut version of 7 vs. Wild (via Twitch).
The other contestants countered in their live reactions. The uncut or additional material would clarify things once and for all and show what the truth looks like.
Fritz Meinecke seems disappointed
In a clip on Twitch, Fritz Meinecke expressed his disappointment that the team of 7 vs. Wild decided against releasing the uncut material. He says:
I have a slightly different opinion. I would have liked to see that again
He further explains that the decision is not only up to him, but is a matter for the majority. Many spoke out against the release to avoid stirring the conflict theme again.
How is the community reacting? The community is also visibly disappointed about the lack of uncut material.
Kallisto616 (on reddit) says: “I understand the reasoning on one side, but on the other hand, there is still a person who has twisted the truth so much that it could almost be damaging to the reputation of other participants and still refuses to back down. (…)”
Especially regarding the conflict surrounding Stefan, many see a need for clarification. SplaTTerChef says on reddit: “Well. And so the good Stefan gets away with it in his own world again. Great.”
There are also reactions against the team of 7 vs. Wild, who suspect there is more behind the withholding of the material:
Aluniah (on reddit): “It only makes sense if the organization has guided the entire content through their storytelling in editing quite significantly. And one could have gotten a completely different impression with the overall material. (…)”
ThinkFoundation8488 (on reddit): “Probably because the organization has also edited it a bit spicy.”
Those who buy new RAM for their gaming PC will notice: There is RAM that is actively advertised with XMP or EXPO. But what does that bring, and does it matter whether I choose XMP or Expo?And what is AMP or X-AMP, which can only be found with AMD?
You have purchased new RAM and have probably stumbled upon abbreviations like XMP or EXPO. Behind them are a technology from Intel and one from AMD. What exactly this is, we will explain to you in the following article. We will also explain how you can activate it and which one is better.
What is XMP? XMP stands for “Extreme Memory Profiles”. In simple terms, it refers to overclocking profiles from Intel for memory (RAM). XMP uses a chip on your RAM (SPD) to provide higher frequencies and faster timings for your memory. Your memory then retrieves the appropriate profile to correctly overclock it.
XMP 2.0: Version for DDR4 memory. Offers two XMP profiles by default.
XMP 3.0: Version for DDR5 memory. Offers up to three XMP profiles and two additional customizable user profiles by default.
What is EXPO? EXPO stands for “Extended Profiles for Overclocking” and is AMD’s counterpart to Intel’s XMP. Like EXPO, it is also about overclocking profiles for memory. EXPO also provides profiles to extract more performance from the memory, which are then automatically retrieved.
To activate XMP or EXPO, access the BIOS of your computer. To do this, press the key that is specified. This may vary depending on the manufacturer; usually, it is one of the F-keys or the Delete key.
In the BIOS settings, look for the setting for XMP, EXPO, or memory speed. The name of the setting may slightly vary depending on the manufacturer.
You activate XMP/EXPO, save the setting, and finally restart your PC. Usually, the BIOS will ask you again if you really want to apply the setting. Then you will also see if you accidentally changed something else.
I can’t find XMP and EXPO in the BIOS: Some manufacturers offer a “simple” mode and an advanced mode in the BIOS. Often, XMP is hidden behind the advanced settings.
Note: Any form of overclocking and other adjustments can lead to an unstable system and crashes. This applies not only to RAM but to all installed components. The use of XMP and EXPO is therefore at your own risk.
XMP vs EXPO: Which should I use?
XMP or EXPO, which is better? Simply put: Expo is optimized for AMD, XMP is optimized for Intel. If you buy an AMD CPU, you should ideally choose RAM with EXPO, and for Intel, it is better to choose memory with XMP.
Neither is better, just better optimized for the corresponding platform. If you want the best performance, buy the right product for your platform.
Is XMP compatible with AMD or vice versa? Yes, fundamentally, you can also use XMP with an AMD CPU and a compatible motherboard. After all, they are just profiles stored in the RAM module. However, there is a small chance that RAM with XMP does not run with the best performance.
Conversely, it works as well: you can also use RAM with EXPO profiles with an Intel CPU.
Our tip: If you are buying a new motherboard and compatible RAM, pay attention to the manufacturer’s indications. Typically, it also states whether, for example, your new AMD motherboard supports XMP or your Intel motherboard is compatible with EXPO. This information is usually found on the packaging of the RAM as well.

In Germany, there are over 400 USB sticks protruding from walls – What is the ‘Dead Drops’ project?
XMP and EXPO: Is it worth it?
The English-speaking website Techspot has conducted the test and tested 13 games with XMP and EXPO activated. According to the testers, the performance varies significantly:
AMD and Expo:
The very fast Ryzen 7 7800x3D benefits little from EXPO, with gains of about 4% in comparison when the profile is not activated.
The older, slower Ryzen 7 7700X, on the other hand, has around 12% more performance with the same RAM than without EXPO.
Intel and XMP:
The Intel i7 14700K benefits from only 4% more performance with XMP activated.
The older i7 12700K, on the other hand, achieves around 12% more performance with XMP.
Is it worth it? Techspot itself explains that it entirely depends on the CPU, and depending on the processor, an activated profile can provide significantly more performance. However, for it to be worthwhile, you also need to buy very highly clocked memory. Typically, this comes at an additional cost of 30 to 40 euros.
Purchase of the suitable graphics card: If you want to get more out of your gaming PC, consider buying a new graphics card. But does it even matter whether I ultimately choose AMD or Nvidia? MeinMMO presents the similarities and differences between AMD and Nvidia and explains what you should consider before your next graphics card purchase: How important is it for a graphics card whether I buy AMD or Nvidia?

In the “Rated 18” game Stellar Blade on PS5, a lot revolves around the characters, showcased with revealing skins and wobbly physics. However, one character has had enough of you and fights back fiercely.
Who is it about? The “Rated 18” game Stellar Blade indulges in fan service on a grand scale. The characters are repeatedly showcased through revealing skins, wobbly body parts, and suggestive animations and poses.
The actual game is a mix of Soulslike and action RPGs like NieR:Automata or Devil May Cry, where you must cleverly defeat opponents in battles by dodging attacks and striking at the right moment. Throughout the game, you unlock new abilities.
While controlling your character through the action game, you can also receive new outfits. However, one character has now had enough of you and doesn’t want to be looked under her skirt anymore.
Here you can watch the trailer for the collaborative DLC between Stellar Blade and NieR:Automata:

Eve fights back against your looks
What does the character do? The main character Eve can be outfitted with various revealing outfits. Since the new DLC, which brought characters and skins from NieR:Automata into the game, Eve’s wardrobe has been further filled.
One of the new outfits from the DLC leaves Eve with very little fabric on her body. A transparent dress, thigh-high stockings, boots, and a bow over the protagonist’s bottom – there isn’t much more to wear.
Some people like to let the camera wander. But those who do quickly receive a kick from Eve. The protagonist doesn’t appreciate it at all when someone wants to look under her skirt and appears angry when kicking against your camera. On X.com, you can watch a video showing the outfit along with the kick.
To provoke the kick, you really have to aim for it – an unintentional camera pan probably won’t be enough.
Why does the character fight back? It’s not new for the characters in Stellar Blade to resist your gaze. If you have stared too long at your character’s body so far, she starts staring back at you.
There was also such a function in NieR:Automata, the game from which the aforementioned outfit originates. Here, the main character would turn around by herself to shield her body from the players’ gazes and directly stare back at the player.

In League of Legends, T1 seems to be at the top in terms of popularity as well as success. The current roster has built a large fanbase. However, the team is now changing, and T1 is getting a new top laner. We introduce you to Doran.
What is the current status at T1? The team that is present at Worlds 2024 will not exist in 2025. Although the contracts of Gumayusi, Keria, and Oner have been extended, Zeus’s contract is expiring. Zeus will leave T1.
However, a replacement has already been secured, as announced on x.com. For the next season, player Doran will play the top lane for T1. Doran is not a young talent, but a well-known professional. What he has achieved will be explained to you.

Who is the top laner Doran? Choi Hyeon-joon is 24 years old and known as Doran in League of Legends. His first major game was at the Esports World Championship for Team Seoul. In 2018, he joined Team Griffin as a trainee. He also played in the main roster in 2019, partially as a substitute for the top laner Sword. In 2019, there was an incident with a coach who allegedly choked Sword.
At that time, Doran was already regarded by fans as a better player who should not just be a substitute. Doran moved to DRX (then still DragonX) in 2019 and then to KT Rolsters in 2020. In 2021, he signed with Gen.G, where he played for 2 years.
There he achieved several successes. Together with Gen.G, he won the Summer Playoffs in 2022 and 2023. Both times, they defeated T1 in a 3:0. In international tournaments, Doran and Gen.G fared worse. At the Worlds 2022, they placed only 3-4, and at the Worlds 2023, they were even 5-8.
What do the fans say about Doran? In a reddit post on the topic, it is clear that many users consider Doran to be the inferior top laner who will now become T1’s weak point. Users like Transhumaniste even clearly call it a downgrade to Zeus.
However, some users are also on Doran’s side and hope that he does not receive too much criticism from fans who are disappointed that Zeus is not staying.
As for Zeus, it must be said that there are few players who currently perform better on the top lane than him. His only major competition might be Bin, who currently plays for BLG. How Doran fares with the well-known team will be seen from January 15, 2025, in the LCK Cup.
