Overwatch 2 will bring back 6vs6, but the DPS players are the problem

Finally, Overwatch 2 is talking about the elephant in the room: 6vs6 is being discussed again, but the DPS players need to change something.

The release of Overwatch 2 has been a while now. Promises like the PvE mode have been broken, and especially the switch from “6vs6” to “5vs5” has alienated many and continues to be a topic of discussion to this day. A few days ago, it was announced that they finally want to have a discussion about it and share the developers’ views. That has now happened.

One of the main reasons for switching to 5vs5: the DPS characters.

The current season in Overwatch 2:

What has changed in Overwatch 2? Until the end of Overwatch 2, there was a “2-2-2” format. So 2 tanks, 2 DPS characters, and 2 supporters. Overwatch 2 then switched to “1-2-2” – meaning only one tank per team.

As Aaron Keller, the Game Director of Overwatch 2, now explains on the Overwatch website, this was done for several reasons. One reason was that 2 tanks often ensured that the game never really progressed and it often felt like a match came to a standstill at the first turn or choke point. When 2 tanks with 2 supporters in the back rotate their defensive abilities and shields, a battle can almost only be decided by ultimates.

The second, and probably more important reason: Too many players want to play DPS. There are simply not enough people who want to play tank. This is not because Overwatch 2 generally lacks players, but the ratio between tanks and DPS characters is extreme.

The problem was this severe: To show how drastic the problem was, Keller showed a statistic:

Overwatch Que Times Statistic
Queue times improved for all roles – but especially for DPS.

In Overwatch 1, DPS players had to wait 7.6 minutes in the role selection to find a match. In Overwatch 2, this time has dropped to 2.9 minutes. The effect is thus stronger than a halving of the waiting time.

If we were to simply return to a 6vs6, it would be like flipping that switch again. The waiting times for DPS fans would explode again, significantly hindering the enjoyment of the game.

Will 6vs6 ever return? That is uncertain. However, the developers want to experiment with some modes and adjustments in the coming seasons to find out whether and how to bring back the 6vs6 mode. There is a lot to consider in this regard, as they do not want to drastically worsen waiting times or alienate those fans who prefer the 5vs5 format.

Additionally, Overwatch 2 offers better graphics and shows more details on screen. 2 more characters per match could lead to the game not running well on older hardware, and that should also be avoided.

This is how the community reacts: Even though the community is generally at odds with the developers of Overwatch 2, this long statement from Aaron Keller is receiving much praise in the Overwatch subreddit. There is repeated recognition for going into such detail and openly explaining many connections and thoughts. For some, understanding the shift from 6vs6 to 5vs5 now seems greater, and a discussion has erupted on how to solve the tank shortage problems.

Whether Blizzard will ever return to a permanent 6vs6 mode with Overwatch 2 is questionable. But the developers are clearly willing to try it and then discuss the findings and results with the community. But just to keep it from getting too positive: Overwatch 2 is currently selling a weapon skin for €80.

All 14 X-Men and Deadpool Movies Ranked

Even before the MCU, there were superhero movies and also a franchise of several heroes. Back in 2000, you could see the mutants fighting on the big screen. With the release of Deadpool 3, MeinMMO editor Nikolas Hernes gives you a ranking of all the movies.

How was this list created? This list is a ranking of all the movies that actively address X-Men or mutants. We also count Deadpool in. Movies that include mutants as a cameo or in an end-credit scene will be ignored.

Series like the animated series or Legion are also excluded from the list. If you have a different ranking, write it in the comments.

14. The New Mutants

Release: 2020

A horror movie in the X-Men universe sounds really exciting, especially in the superhero mush. Unfortunately, The New Mutants is not a good movie. The effects are poor.

There is never any horror, and the story doesn’t work either, even though there are cool mutants like Magik or Sunspot.

13. X-Men: Dark Phoenix

Dark Phoenix – Trailer for the finale of the X-Men prequel trilogy

Release: 2019

The second failed attempt to bring the iconic Phoenix saga to the screen. The film tries to tell too much in too little time, which means that the tragic story of Jean Grey never gets to breathe.

The humanity of the various X-Men never gets the attention it deserves. The film tries too hard to be an MCU spectacle.

12. X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Release: 2009

The first solo film of Wolverine is also his worst. The tragedy of the character is completely ignored here, to create a mediocre superhero film by the numbers. It attempts to tell the rivalry between Wolverine and Sabretooth, but that doesn’t work.

Seeing Deadpool portrayed in the film still hurts today.

This has turned into a new video game featuring the iconic Batman villain played by Arnold Schwarzenegger

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has received its second season and with it a new playable villain: Mr. Freeze. Or more precisely, Mrs. Freeze, as the well-known supervillain appears in the game as a lesbian woman. Although her gameplay is said to be quite good, the choice and appearance of the character are causing confusion.

What kind of game is this?

This is new in Suicide Squad: On July 25, Suicide Squad received its second season. The new hero or villain here is Mrs. Freeze, a “gender bent” version of Mr. Freeze, a villain with ice superpowers.

Mr. Freeze, whose real name is Doctor Victor Fries, is one of the most recognizable supervillains in the Batman universe and was portrayed in movies by Arnold Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger even reprised the role at the Oscars in 2024, albeit only as a gag.

Mrs. Freeze in Suicide Squad is a copy of the villain, just in female form and homosexual. The whole idea behind the character is roughly that she uses the ice powers to save her terminally ill wife, Nora.

Along with Mrs. Freeze come several other contents into the game, including new skins, battles, and a battle pass. However, Mrs. Freeze is receiving harsh criticism. You can find the official trailer on YouTube.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League – Gameplay Trailer

“I thought Suicide Squad was a tragedy – Now I understand, it’s a comedy”

On Reddit and in the comments under several YouTube videos, there is confusion regarding the choice of Mrs. Freeze as the new villain. If a female villain with ice powers was desired, one should simply have chosen Killer Frost. At least she is canonically part of the Suicide Squad. Alternatively, Nora Fries is a choice.

To change an established character like Mr. Freeze in such a way feels like it is “intentional.” Nobody can seriously expect that this decision would be received well.

With Mrs. Freeze, even the effort seems lacking. She has a stereotypical look with short hair and masculine features, something that lesbian characters in games are almost always represented with.

On Steam, there have been significantly more negative than positive reviews since the update. The player count has increased from about 60 to about 600, but that’s far from being a peak position.

At least the gameplay of Mrs. Freeze is partly good. She moves by creating bridges of ice for herself, which is clearly more fun than with other characters. What doesn’t fit is that she has fire attacks for some reason. For a frost villain, that is questionable.

Mr. Freeze is firmly associated with Arnold Schwarzenegger as the actor who lent the villain his voice and appearance for many Batman fans. To see the character changed so drastically apparently does not please the fans much. However, the Batman universe is often delivering downers lately: The new Batman game is the sweetest disappointment in 10 years: A great trailer for nothing

WoW expert expresses concerns: “I expect a buggy launch”

The release of WoW: The War Within is coming soon. But the criticism is growing louder: The game is not finished, at least according to the streamer Bellular.

A few days ago, there were concerns that the launch of The War Within could be in jeopardy. Many would even prefer a delay to address the pressing bugs and problems, including YouTuber and streamer Bellular. However, with the release of the new cinematics, the launch date seems to be further set in stone.

WoW: The War Within – Shadows Beneath the Surface

This is the current situation: In World of Warcraft, the pre-patch 11.0 of The War Within was released a few days ago. It brought a lot of changes to major systems, such as the warthrong, new talents, faster leveling, and also an adjusted scaling. However, this came with numerous bugs that are still plaguing the game even 5 days later:

  • Disconnects in dungeons with movement abilities.
  • Warthrong bank is disabled.
  • WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria is oddly scaled between levels 40 and 70, making leveling difficult.
  • Some talents are malfunctioning or not working at all.
  • Some classes deal more than double the damage compared to others.
  • Raid bosses are bugged and can hardly be defeated.
  • Cross-realm guilds do not allow access to the guild bank.

Accordingly, the situation is currently tense in World of Warcraft. More and more people are expressing concerns that WoW: The War Within is not ready for release yet and that Blizzard may need a few weeks or even months.

This is how Bellular sees it: YouTuber and streamer Bellular deals extensively with World of Warcraft and continuously analyzes mechanics, incidents, and the overall state of the game. He also currently expresses significant concerns and suspects that the launch of The War Within, based on the current state, will not go smoothly:

The first impression is very, very hard to fix. And when you look at the last 6 years of WoW: WoW needs to make a good first impression. […]

If it is not released in a good condition, then it doesn’t matter how cool the healing plunge or the story is. Because the problems will just overshadow that. […]

I expect that this will be a pretty buggy launch.

What happens next? Even though Bellular emphasizes that it is good that many bugs are already noticeable with the release of the pre-patch and can therefore be fixed, the state of the contents of The War Within is also a cause for concern. Because here, some classes are simply “not finished”, as if the developers ran out of time to implement the revisions for all specializations.

The dungeons and the depths (“Delves”) are currently still in a catastrophic state in the beta. The dungeons have significantly more mechanics than previous dungeons and seem overloaded to many, while Delves are extremely challenging for some classes and easier for others – especially ranged attackers seem to struggle alone in the higher-level Delves.

It is to be hoped that the developers can get all the problems under control. Because if The War Within launches and many bugs cloud the gaming experience, it would be a serious problem: After all, there is no second chance for a first impression. And it must be outstanding at the beginning of a three-part saga.

Once Human tempts to grind, but a player advises you: Relaxed gameplay is more fun

The survival game Once Human on Steam attracts numerous players venturing into the post-apocalyptic world. A player says: Once Human respects your time and you can play at a relaxed pace. The grinders can only laugh about that.

To craft better weapons and armor in Once Human and further expand the base, it is necessary to farm certain resources. There are various areas for that. You first have to get to “Chalk Peak” to find aluminum ore. And for some resources, especially at the endgame, a bit more grind is required.

Why is relaxed gaming more enjoyable? “agonzalez1990” shares on Reddit that he has never felt the need to rush in his 14 hours of gameplay. He writes that he has seen many posts from people who have exhausted the content and can no longer look forward to anything. In contrast, he has just reached the third area and is enjoying the quests.

He thinks it’s cool that he can explore the world at his own pace. The game respects his time, he notes. He also hasn’t had to start a “crazy resource factory” so far; he has never experienced a lack of acid. He thinks he must be doing something right so far. He states: The game is simply not for grinders.

Is it worth starting with Once Human when the reset is coming soon?

What do other players say? On Reddit, there are a few users who agree with “agonzalez1990”. “ColboltSky” writes in the comments: “I found that most of the grinding I had to do was about 10 minutes of collecting ores. After that, I was well supplied for a while. That’s great!”

And “SamIamGreenEggsNoHam” notes that he has set up four “Elemental Youth” mutations at his base that collect ores for him. “I haven’t farmed ore in over a week, lol,” he writes.

“sigh1995” has a similar view: “That’s the main reason I chose this game. I am tired of playing games that don’t respect your time and force you into a long, pointless, boring, repetitive grind before you can enjoy the challenging ‘endgame’ content with your friends. […] The moment this game becomes grindier, I’m out; I can’t tolerate that anymore.”

“If you want to do everything, you have to grind”

Are there other opinions? In the comments, there are also users who see things a bit differently. Many of them write: Just wait. “bossdark101” states that he has 86 hours of gameplay and has reached level 50. He explains: “It’s not a heavily grind-focused game, but there is grinding if you want to participate in all the content it offers.”

Several users write that particularly the lack of acid only becomes an issue in the endgame of Once Human. “EmpireStateOfBeing” explains: “I had to laugh when [the poster] said he has no acid problems after he stated he just got into the third zone.”

The user “Apprehensive-Top-530” elaborates in his comment:

The acid shortage occurs when you actually reach the end of the story and start crafting tier-5 gear and weapons. Tungsten and aluminum (the metals from the tier-4 and -5 areas) require acid for smelting. Bullets require acid if you want to use tungsten […]. Basically, everything requires acid.

Now, is it as big of a problem as people make it out to be? No. But it requires constant maintenance to keep everything else you are doing in order. Fuel is also another issue, especially for primary wars, just like the stardust source if you plan to tune a few builds per season.

And “simao1234” believes that games should be fun for everyone, and if you enjoy the game at your own pace, then go ahead. However, he also points out that the game has seasons. If you’re playing at a slower pace, you might not be “finished” when the season resets.

On the servers in Once Human, there are various scenarios that function like seasons. Each scenario lasts six weeks – or “phases” – before it resets. What you lose and what you can take with you can be read here: Once Human: Do you lose all progress? Here’s how the server reset works

A character in Two and a Half Men was supposed to disappear after just 2 episodes, but she was simply too good

Two and a Half Men is the story of Charlie, Alan, and Jake, who all live in a house and couldn’t be more different. Another character in the house is Berta, without whom you can’t imagine it all. However, she was originally only intended for two episodes.

What was the original plan for Berta? In a 2014 interview, Conchata Ferrell, who portrayed Berta, spoke with The A.V. Club about how she ended up getting the role. She shares how she was actually supposed to audition with an Eastern European accent.

During the audition, however, she said she would like to play the role without an accent. Chuck Lorre, the creator of Two and a Half Men, reportedly just laughed and allowed her to do so. Of the 32 women who auditioned, by her own account, she was chosen. Lorre developed the character further based on Ferrell’s performance and turned her into an old hippie.

The original plan for the character Berta was that she would leave the house after two episodes because Alan and Jake were moving in. But the grumpy housekeeper was so good that we got to see her for a full twelve seasons.

Even after the unpleasant departure of Charlie Sheen, you could see her as Bertha:

From a brief guest to a relevant supporting character

Ferrell explains in the interview how she went home after filming her second episode and told her husband: Boy, I hope they think what I think, because I really fit in there.

She was then called to do more episodes. By the second season, she became a regular supporting character of the series because she fit into the concept of the show as Berta and impressed everyone. She herself liked the character a lot because Berta had the courage to do things she wouldn’t do herself. She also spoke positively about the relationship between Bertha and Charlie in the series.

And I really enjoyed working for him. I liked his lifestyle, I liked the fact that he lived the way he lived, and he said what he said, and he did what he did. I liked him because he was a more stylish version of me, I thought.

Even after Charlie Sheen’s departure, Berta was still around. From the 9th season onward, she became the housekeeper of Walden Schmidt, played by Ashton Kutcher.

What does Conchata Ferrell think of Ashton Kutcher? In the interview, she is also asked about the then-current status of the series. She states that Ashton Kutcher saved the show and that everyone was still working because of Kutcher. She describes the seasons as a completely different show, which she enjoyed. Before Kutcher got the role, there was another desired candidate: Two and a Half Men: An actor was supposed to receive over €650,000 per episode, but he declined

Diablo 4: The 7 Evils in the Power Ranking

The evils have been the great adversaries since the first part of the Diablo series. But which of them is actually the strongest? MeinMMO dares to enter the hells and puts all the demonic lords in a power ranking.

This is how we created the ranking: For our ranking, we only consider the “evils”, meaning those seven beings that directly originated from the prime demon Tathamet. Therefore, you won’t find some well-known characters, such as Inarius and Lilith, the parents of Sanctuary.

For their place in the ranking, we considered the following criteria for the evils:

  • How great is their pure strength in direct combat?
  • What abilities do they possess aside from pure combat strength that they can use to their advantage?
  • How likely is it that they would emerge victorious in a war of the hells?
  • What weaknesses ensure that one evil would succumb to another?

The ranking refers solely to the strength of the evils in the lore of Diablo and not to how difficult they are to defeat in the game.

Rank 7: Duriel

  • Type: Lesser Evil
  • Domain/Title: Master of Pain, Lord of Maggots
  • Appears in: Diablo 2, Diablo 4

Duriel is driven by pain – regardless of who it comes from. Consequently, he tortures humans, demons, and angels alike, and when he can’t find anyone else who screams loud enough, he tortures himself. His iconic weapons include poisons and diseases.

That makes him the weakest evil in our ranking because he cares little for true power as long as someone is suffering. Moreover, his strongest weapons have little to no effect on numerous demons and angels and are only truly effective against humans. He would likely have no interest in ruling over the hells.

In Diablo 4, Duriel appears as a boss and can be defeated by the protagonist without much trouble. He simply returns at some point to torment others.

Rank 6: Andariel

  • Type: Lesser Evil
  • Domain/Title: Mistress of Torment, Demon Queen
  • Appears in: Diablo 2, Diablo 4

The only female evil is considered Duriel’s “sister” and ranks just above her brother. Similar to Duriel, she primarily wants to cause suffering, but unlike the Master of Pain, Andariel focuses primarily on mental torture.

Consequently, she would not harm herself just to satisfy her greed, and her weapons are somewhat more universal. In the battle for the hells, Andariel would at least be superior to Duriel, but all other evils still surpass her.

In Diablo 4, Andariel appears in a bound form and can still defend herself better than Duriel. She manages to free herself from her chains, thus demonstrating in a certain way more strength than her brother.

Rank 5: Belial

  • Type: Lesser Evil
  • Domain/Title: Lord of Lies, Master of Deception
  • Appears in: Diablo 3

The Lord of Lies from Diablo 3 relies primarily on cunning and intrigue – and is also an extremely formidable fighter. With his deceptions, he manages to seize an entire realm of humans, demonstrating that he has the potential to gain great power unnoticed.

Since he is a master of deception, one can never really say whether they have truly defeated him or if his apparent defeat is part of Belial’s plan. This makes him a dangerous opponent. Nevertheless, he only ranks 5th, as other evils can still surpass him even in his domain.

Arms billionaire and Oculus founder got stuck in his 6.3 million dollar mega garage – now he’s heading to court

The Oculus founder Palmer Luckey loves expensive cars. However, his new luxury garage for his precious toys has now become his downfall.

The title image is a symbolic picture.

Who built a garage for 6.3 million dollars? Palmer Luckey is a 31-year-old American billionaire, whose fortune is estimated by Forbes at 2.3 billion US dollars. He became known in the gaming scene primarily for founding the VR company Oculus. However, he is now mainly working in the defense industry.

However, for this particular circumstance, a hobby of Luckey’s is crucial: his love for historic luxury cars. His new mega-garage for his favorite toy in the form of luxury vintage cars is impressive.

Start video
The “Deep Dive” is supposed to immerse us into MMORPGs deeper than ever before – What is it actually?

What kind of garage is this, please? His collection of fine cars from the past decades has grown so large that he decided to build another garage opposite his approximately 12.5 million US dollar luxury villa in Newport Beach, California. This was also reported by Forbes.

He purchased a house and the land for about 3.8 million US dollars and had the property completely renovated for another 2.5 million US dollars. For the total of 650 square meters of floor space, four gigantic elevators for the cars are installed. The sole purpose of the building is to showcase and store his vintage car fleet. But after completion in late summer 2023, reality set in.

After Getting Stuck Comes the Lawsuit

What happened to Palmer Luckey in his luxury garage? The elevators for the cars tend to get stuck. The billionaire himself was reportedly unable to get out for more than ten minutes at least once, as the huge cabin was stuck between floors.

Such incidents are said to be occurring frequently. This would be a central problem for the house, as it would render the million-dollar construction virtually unusable or only partially usable for Luckey.

How does Luckey respond? The billionaire has filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of California County of Orange against the construction company responsible for the renovation as well as against the elevator designers. Among other things, it is claimed that the car elevators were not built by hand as promised, but were cheaply purchased in China as mass-produced goods.

Both parties being accused deny the allegations and refer to the successful acceptance of the building in August 2023. However, at least one of the four elevators might have a problem, which the head of Custom Cabs, the elevator designers, should know.

According to Luckey’s lawyer, he was in the elevator when the billionaire himself was trapped there in his giant toy garage as a prisoner.

An elevator also plays a central, ongoing role in the US series Big Bang Theory. The illustrious nerd crew surrounding physicist Sheldon constantly has to take the stairs because the elevator in the apartment building is broken. But why? An answer to this question is provided in the following article: In The Big Bang Theory, the characters had to climb stairs for 12 years – but the explosion in the elevator is not to blame

Steam takes 30%, but a developer says “I’d still prefer it if you buy on Steam”

At Steam, developers are pushing a lot of money to Valve, namely 30%. However, one developer says it’s still the best that is possible.

Steam is considered an unavoidable platform in the minds of many gamers. Most games can be found here, the interface is easy to use, and everything is conveniently located in one place. However, at the same time, Steam, or rather Valve behind it, is seen as “greedy” because they keep a hefty 30% of the revenue from game sales. Some fans are concerned that developers would be left behind in this situation.

A developer now explains why this is not so bad – and that he actually prefers you to buy his game “Cosmoteer” on Steam, even if he has to give up 30% of it.

Start video
Cosmoteer: Starship Architect & Commander Trailer

Which game is it about? It is about the developer of Cosmoteer. Cosmoteer is an early access game. You have to design your own spaceship – from scratch. You determine how many decks the ship has, where individual machines and weapon systems are placed, or what shape the ship should have. Every decision affects how well your crew manages on the ship and how long the ship can withstand in battles.

What did the developer say? In the Steam forum, “Walt Destler”, one of the developers of Cosmoteer, was asked if he ever considers selling keys outside of Steam. These could then be redeemed on Steam, and he wouldn’t have to give up 30% each time. Destler responded:

It takes significant effort to build a store of my own and to maintain the site. For some stores, I would even have to negotiate contracts that cost me time and money for lawyers. And even if I do all that, Steam would probably still surpass the sales on all other platforms by x100. Honestly, it’s just not worth the effort, except maybe for really big games.

Yes, Steam takes 30% of the revenue. But when someone comes to Steam and buys the game, Steam usually rewards the game with free advertising on Steam, which more than compensates for the 30%. So honestly, even if you could buy Cosmoteer keys elsewhere, I would still prefer if you bought it on Steam, because in the long run, I believe I make more money from that.

Why is Steam so lucrative? The advertising aspect is likely to hit here particularly hard. New games on Steam are not only prominently displayed on various pages, but also wishlists and even friends lists serve as marketing. After all, players are informed when their friends are playing a certain game – and just that generates indirect advertising and attention that one might not have on other platforms.

Although Steam seems quite expensive from the outside with its 30% and that was even an argument from Epic Games for why one should switch to their launcher and platform, many developers seem to be more than satisfied with Steam. In the past, some have stated that while the 30% looks like a lot on paper, due to the size of Steam, the reach, and the attention that the Steam store brings to a game, this “loss” is outweighed in most cases.

Mortal Kombat 1 presents new characters – Soon you can fight again as Arnold Schwarzenegger

After the first character pass with Takeda was completed, Mortal Kombat 1 presents the new content for the 2nd year. This includes not only new characters but also a story mode and a new type of finishers.

What is the status of Mortal Kombat 1? In September 2023, the latest installment of the Mortal Kombat series was released under the somewhat confusing title Mortal Kombat 1. Alongside many familiar characters, a character pass was, of course, announced. This contained six characters, including guests like Peacemaker, Omni-Man, or the widely known Homelander, who has captured the hearts of fans.

The last character, Takeda, has now been released, and in a new trailer, Mortal Kombat 1 shows what is coming for fighting game fans in the future. And it’s a lot.

Old acquaintances, Ghostface, and yet again Arnie

What does the trailer show? The first part of the trailer introduces a new chapter of the story mode. At the end of the main game, a powerful Havik variant was already hinted at, and now we see that he threatens the entire multiverse.

We also see the first new characters that are already familiar from previous installments of the series. On Havik’s side is the fan-favorite Noob Saibot, who was playable in Mortal Kombat 11. Along with him come Cyrax and Sektor, two fighters equipped with a kind of Iron Man suit. These too could be played in previous installments.

Much more exciting are the other three DLC fighters. On one hand, Ghostface from the Scream series is coming. Once again, there’s Arnold Schwarzenegger, this time as Conan. And once again, there’s a Terminator, this time the T-1000 from Terminator 2. Schwarzenegger was already playable in Mortal Kombat 11, back then as the Terminator.

A horror movie character is nothing new for the franchise either. For example, Mortal Kombat X already featured Jason, Leatherface, and the Xenomorph (Alien).

Virginia

Start video
Trailer for the surreal tip ‘Virginia’

Genre: Adventure/Walking Simulator | Developer: Variable State | Platform: PC, macOS, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S | Release: September 22, 2016

What kind of game is this? In Virginia, you play as a young FBI agent visiting the town of Kingdom to solve the case of a missing boy.

What starts innocently quickly develops into a surreal journey through the American small town, through the protagonist’s dreams, and into her past. Virginia is primarily a walking simulator and has very few gameplay elements. It’s more of a playable film in beautiful, minimalist graphics.

Virginia only lasts about two hours and will stay with you. The story poses puzzles and doesn’t explain itself. Fans of David Lynch and the series Twin Peaks will be fully satisfied here thanks to numerous allusions.

Journey

Genre: Adventure | Developer: thatgamecompany | Platform: PC, PS3, PS4, PS5, iOS | Release: March 14, 2012

Start video
Excursion into the desert in the trailer for ‘Journey’

What kind of game is this? Journey takes you to the desert. You play a small figure that can fly high into the air and glide over the dunes thanks to its scarf. There’s hardly any story here. Your goal is a distant mountain, and along the way, you discover the ruins of a lost civilization.

What exactly has happened must be pieced together by you. As you get closer to the mountain, you simultaneously dive deeper into the mythology of this world.

What’s special about Journey is the multiplayer aspect. Without any announcement, the game throws other players into your world. Even 12 years after release, you can still find some. This way, you can continue your journey together and communicate with sounds at the press of a button.

Or you can forgo that and enjoy the roughly two-hour journey alone. Either way: Journey offers a fascinating experience that can be very emotional with minimal means.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

Genre: Action-Adventure | Developer: Starbreeze Studios| Platform: PC, PS3, PS4, PS5, iOS, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Android, Amazon Luna | Release: August 7, 2013

Start video
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons moves to tears in the remake with new graphics.

What kind of game is this? If you don’t want to sit alone on the couch or in front of the PC, but rather spend a cozy co-op evening, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is highly recommended. It’s about two brothers who search for the water of life to heal their sick father.

The special thing: You control both brothers with just one controller. This allows you to have each brother controlled by a player. This makes the adventure easier as you often have to perform different actions with both brothers at the same time. In the remake version of the game, there’s additionally a “real” co-op mode with two controllers.

After about three hours, the game is already over. Thanks to the captivating story, the dense atmosphere, and the high emotionality, you won’t easily forget Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.

Scrubs: Elliot and J.D. should never actually get together, so that the series doesn’t become like Friends

A common thread throughout all seasons of Scrubs is the relationship between Elliot and J.D. The constant on-off between the two created interpersonal chaos alongside the medical storyline. Originally, the creator of the series did not want to focus on such a relationship.

What is Scrubs? Scrubs aired from 2001 to 2010 and followed the careers of J.D. and his doctor colleagues over 9 seasons. With its daydreams and lovable characters, the series gained a cult status.

While Turk and Carla were largely the dream couple of the series, the relationship between J.D. and Elliot was a significant back and forth. The show’s creator, Bill Lawrence, originally did not want them to get together because he had a different focus for the series.

One of the funniest characters in the series is the janitor. Zach Braff agrees: Scrubs: Zach Braff explains which actor made him laugh the most

A special spot for Scrubs fans was featured during the Super Bowl. And with Jason Momoa:

Scrubs should not be like Friends

In an interview with Premium Hollywood, Bill Lawrence discussed the relationship of Elliot and J.D. in the series during the 8th season. Lawrence is asked whether there was ever a consideration to give the two a happy ending, but with other partners.

He explains that the network wanted a romantic story to be told with Elliot and J.D. from the very beginning. However, Lawrence did not want that. Scrubs was supposed to focus on medicine and the dynamics in the hospital.

Nevertheless, he tried several times to tell a back and forth of the two based on his own experiences. When they realized it was becoming too much, they tried to destroy the relationship between the two.

He was afraid that with such a storyline, the focus would shift solely to a relationship between the two main characters and not on the actual theme. He mentions Friends. Here, the premise is already designed around the relationship of Rachel and Ross. However, he did not want to lose focus on medicine.

Why did Elliot and J.D. still end up together? The blame lies with the actors of the two, Sarah Chalke and Zach Braff. According to Lawrence, the two were so good that they always conveyed a certain subtext or tension outward. He also explains that he enjoyed writing romantic comedy as well. In Scrubs, things did not always develop as planned. This is also true for the janitor: The biggest enemy of J.D. in Scrubs was not supposed to exist, but the show was too good

Steam game has to close: “The funniest reason why a game disappears”

A game on Steam had to shut down for an absurd reason. The developers lost the most important thing: The source code.

The title image is a symbolic image.

When a game disappears from Steam, it’s often because the developer is bankrupt or promises couldn’t be kept. However, there are also curious stories now and then, like in the case of Quantum Lock. Because even though the game wasn’t particularly successful, the developer was actually doing fine. Nonetheless, it has now vanished from Steam with a curious explanation:

The developers no longer have access to the source code of the game.

Start video
Quantum Lock Release Trailer

What kind of game is Quantum Lock? At its core, Quantum Lock is a type of “cat and mouse” game. At the beginning of the game, players are divided into 2 groups. The so-called “Rogue Programs” that try to hack the computer and extract as much data as possible. However, one person becomes the “Anti-Virus” and must try to catch and isolate all the malware to keep the PC free of viruses.

Each character has different abilities and each program belongs to different “classes”, allowing for various playstyles.

The game is played in short, snappy rounds that rarely last more than a few minutes. Quantum Lock describes itself as “carefree fun with non-violent competition”.

What has happened now? In a new post, the developer announced that the game will no longer be offered for sale on Steam starting now. The reason: They have lost access to their own source code of the game:

Hey everyone,

Quantum Lock was our first game and although it was a milestone for us, it was created at a time before we understood software version control. We no longer have access to the source code and cannot make any fixes or changes to the game. Therefore, we have decided that copies of this game can no longer be purchased.

The community finds it hilarious: In the Steam subreddit, people are having a good laugh about the incident and say: “This must be the funniest reason I’ve ever seen for a game to shut down.” Many comments join in and also find the whole thing extremely entertaining, resulting in over 17,000 upvotes:

  • “Anyone looking for an ‘authentic indie studio’ game has found their home here.” – cavalier24601
  • “Honestly, I would want to buy the game now to support the developers, lol” – TwixxleFuzz
  • “At least they are being honest about it. That’s a big plus for me.” – TowerRough

As funny as it may seem from the outside, for the developers this is probably quite a disaster. Losing access to their own source code must be a crushing event for any developer. However, one thing can be said for sure: Such a mistake will not happen to this studio a second time.

The 10 best 7 vs. Wild participants in the power ranking

Before the 4th season of 7 vs. Wild starts, let’s take a look back at all the past contestants. MeinMMO author Cedric lists who he believes were the top 10 contestants of 7 vs. Wild from all seasons.

7 vs. Wild has evolved over the years, and the participants have also become increasingly diverse. While in the beginning it was only friends of founder Fritz Meinecke, participants from all sorts of backgrounds have taken part since then.

Many contestants who were criticized before the airing of a season surprised the viewers with their skills. Our “7 vs. Wild” expert Cedric has created a ranking of the 10 best contestants from 7 vs. Wild, which mainly focuses on their performance in the show and is, of course, meant to be taken with a wink.

Did he make it into the top 10? Jens “Knossi” Knossalla has already participated in 7 vs. Wild twice:

Place 10 Papaplatte

  • Participation: Season 3
  • Rank: Winner of the season

Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller is a surprising winner of the 3rd season of 7 vs. Wild, just like his teammate Reeze. His perseverance and mental fitness helped the content creator to win the season.

The skills he learned in preparation he tried to implement as best as possible, and he not only motivated his teammate to win but also to not just lie around in the shelter all the time.

Place 9 Joris

  • Participation: Season 2 via wildcard
  • Rank: 2nd place

Joris “joris_rdy” entered the format through the wildcard for viewers. He promised in advance to explain a lot to viewers, and he did so in his total of over 21 hours of footage. Almost uncut, you can find this in the uncut format of the series on YouTube, in case his explanations in the show were not enough for you.

Even though he had difficulties starting a fire, he completed the tasks without any problems. He performed so well that he ended up in 2nd place ahead of founder Fritz Meinecke. In the wilderness itself, he seemed to have little trouble. His mental state was probably his biggest opponent in 7 vs. Wild.

Place 8 Survival Mattin

  • Participation: Seasons 1 and 3
  • Rank: 2nd place in season 1, eliminated on day 3 in season 3

Martin “Survival Mattin” Rudloff has the word Survival right in his name. In season 1 he simply sat around for 7 days and didn’t even attempt many of the tasks. Nonetheless, he successfully secured 2nd place and survived the 7 days, albeit not without mental and health issues.

In season 3, his performance alongside Fritz Meinecke was rather poor. Even before the search for water, health issues hit him hard, and when the water was missing, he was not eager to move on to find new water.

WoW has released the cinematic for The War Within – And it’s really funny

The new cinematic for World of Warcraft: The War Within has been released. It makes you crave more – even though some are asking, “Wtf was that?”

Almost a bit secretly, World of Warcraft released the new cinematic for the upcoming expansion “The War Within” on a Saturday morning. The video gives a first taste of the expansion’s release, provides a glimpse of various characters, and shows the places we will visit in a few weeks when The War Within celebrates its release.

Start video
WoW: The War Within – Shadows Beneath the Surface

What can be seen in the cinematic? The cinematic “Shadows Beneath” features swiftly changing cuts showing different people and cultures from the areas we will see in “The War Within.”

  • An Earthen Dwarf operates a massive forge that crashes down with seemingly unimaginable force, while molten metal is being shaped into something still unknown.
  • A Paladin of the Arathi prepares for war, and we see her and her followers lined up, apparently ready for a battle.
  • A Harronir performs a ritual dance, shaping nature.
  • The Queen of the Nerubians stands before a dark, eerie mixture, while in the background, tentacles with eyes from an Old God or a Void creature are visible.
  • Finally, there is a close-up of Xal’atath, who appears amused and quite satisfied, laughing.

Some parts of this cinematic were already seen in a previous trailer.

WoW Neruber Old God Tentacle with eyes
Nerubian in front of a tentacle of the Old Gods – quite disgusting. And cool.

This is how the community reacts: Reactions to the cinematic are quite mixed. While some very much like the look, there is also a lot of criticism. The lack of dialogue or portrayal of conflicts leads some fans to bewilderedly ask, “Is this now WoW or Diablo?” while others believe that it “just doesn’t set the vibe.”

The somewhat disjointed showing of various characters that many simply do not know (yet) often leads to puzzled faces. The cinematic seems to be missing something that makes the spark ignite for many, as the comments on YouTube show:

  • “Did someone tell the Crusaders that they are in the wrong game?” – KushanGaming
  • “What the Avatar was that?” – kierthas6351
  • “The Paladin looked like something you’d see in Destiny. The troll came from Avatar? The only thing that looked somewhat like WoW was the dwarf, lol.” – Vikturus22
  • “Somehow something is missing, without Xal’atath revealing a grand plan or something…” – YetiUprising

Although predominantly negative opinions dominate the comment section, the video is generally rated positively. As of now (27.07.2024, 10:30 AM), the video has around 80% positive ratings and 20% negative ratings. The vast majority seems to like the video well, even though the negative voices are the most visible. For comparison: Under the video on the German WoW channel, the ratio is nearly 95:5 – much more positive.

What do you think of the new cinematic for World of Warcraft: The War Within? Did you like the design, and does it make you excited for the new expansion? Or do you agree with the critics and feel that something is simply missing in the video?

LoL: Riot will make it harder for players to constantly play with new accounts – Changes the requirements for ranked mode

The most important mode in League of Legends is ranked play. Currently, there are only a few requirements to play for your rank. Riot wants to change that to combat smurfs.

What do you need to play ranked in LoL? Currently, there are two requirements to be able to play both Ranked Solo/Duo and Ranked Flex. The account must be at level 30, and you need at least 20 champions, as 10 will be banned and then 10 must be picked.

Smurf accounts simply need to level up their account. This usually happens in bot or ARAM games. Riot is no longer interested in this and wants to introduce a new requirement with the next patch: New accounts must now also play 10 matches in Summoner’s Rift, meaning Draft or Quick Play, in addition to the previous requirements.

If you are not interested in the stressful MOBA gameplay, then you should check out the new mode:

A step for beginners and against smurfs

On X.com, RiotPhroxzon announced this change. He explains that the change has been planned for a while, but some adjustments needed to be made. He also talks again about the reasons for the new restriction.

They have problems determining the skill of new players when they only play ARAM or bot games. At the same time, this should also help with alternative accounts that are otherwise placed too low and completely overwhelm beginners and new players.

Riot Phroxzon mentions in the tweet again that they want to continue to combat purchased and boosted accounts. Vanguard is also there for this purpose. Vanguard has already caused hardware bans.

They also want to closely examine players who consciously try to misrepresent their skill so they can play with worse players. How exactly the measures against this will look is not mentioned in the tweet.

How does the community react? On reddit, the majority of the community is responding positively to the announcement, even if some are calling for even stricter restrictions.

  • comfortreacher: Good change, it didn’t really make much sense to play ARAM/bots and go straight into ranked
  • WoonStruck: Based. Their matchmaking algorithm could actually start placing people properly now. It should probably be 20-30.
  • Zyver87: A good change that should have happened years ago

What do you think of this change? Is it good, or should Riot take even tougher action against smurfs and purchased accounts? Let us know in the comments. Smurfs seem to be a big issue for Riot in 2024, as they are trying to combat them using various methods: LoL is adopting the best change from Dota 2 in recent years and wants to ban annoying teammates

Secret OP build in Diablo 4 excites fans – expert makes it even better

Barbarians are the top class in Diablo 4 and have many powerful builds. An expert takes on a secret OP-build that will soon be nerfed – and makes it even stronger.

This is what the build is about: We reported on the barbarian build that the community calls the “Frog Build”. Some say: It is approximately “the craziest build” seen this season. The build is based on one skill: the leap. With this, you hop around and stomp your enemies.

Diablo expert Rob2628 is known for his OP builds in Diablo 4. With one of them, he dealt over 1 trillion damage in Zir’s slaughterhouse and made Druids top-tier.

Now Rob tackles the frog build of the barbarian and presents his variant in his YouTube video.

The Spiritborn, which we have already tested, is also a lot of fun. It appears with Vessel of Hatred:

Start video
This is how the Spiritborn plays, the new class in Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred

“How fast do you want to move? – Barbarian!”

How does the build work? In principle, you move across the map with your jump and stomp on enemies while doing so. It is important for this that the cooldown on the skill is as low as possible, so you can almost spam it. Specifically, this means:

  • You focus everything on the skill “Leap”.
  • Reduce the cooldown of leap as much as possible and push the ranks for the skill through skill points and gear. Rob recommends a cooldown that’s close to 4 seconds and around 14–15 ranks for the skill.
  • Cooldown reduction on brawler skills through hardening, to which the leap belongs, is also useful here.
  • To push the cooldown and skill ranks, use the crafting systems “Hardening” (imprints new affixes on items) and “Completion” (improves the affixes).
  • The critical hit damage should be in the range of 5,000%.
  • As a weapon, Rob uses the Uber Unique The Grandfather. The 2H sword increases your critical hit damage, your damage, and your maximum health.
  • The coveted Harlequin’s Crown (“Shako”) is also helpful here, as it gives you additional ranks on your skills.
  • The Uber Unique Tyrael’s Might is also a good option if you find the chest piece because: It unleashes a barrage and damages your enemies when you are at full health.

Rob says in the video that the build is “pretty cool” and is suitable for anyone who is somewhat bored with their whirlwind barbarian. “How fast do you want to move? – Barbarian!” Rob answers himself while jumping across the map with the barbarian. You can find the detailed build planner with all skills and the Paragon board on d4builds.gg.

These are the skills used by the build:

  • Leap: Jumps forward and slams down, dealing 32% damage to nearby enemies upon impact and knocking them back.
  • Battle Shout: Lets out a powerful battle cry that increases your damage dealt by 15% for 8 seconds. The damage dealt by nearby allies is increased for 4 seconds.
  • War Cry: Lets out a war cry that increases your movement speed by 50% and resource generation by 30% for 6 seconds. The movement speed and resource generation of nearby allies are increased for 3 seconds.
  • Challenging Shout: Taunts nearby enemies and grants 40% damage reduction for 8 seconds.
  • Iron Skin: Fortifies you and grants a barrier that absorbs 50% of your lost health for 5 seconds.

In October, the first expansion for Diablo 4, Vessel of Hatred, will be released, bringing the new class “Spiritborn” into the game. Some experts were allowed to preview the class and test the skills. Among them was our in-house Diablo expert Benedict Grothaus.

Palworld: Finding and Breeding Ragnahawk

In Palworld, the Pal Ragnahawk is a versatile companion and an excellent choice as a flying creature. We at MeinMMO explain where you can find this Pal and how to breed it.

In Palworld, you fight your opponents and catch Pals that not only help you in battle but also perform useful tasks in your camps or serve as flying creatures.

Ragnahawk is a good choice as a flying creature for many players. Aside from that, this Pal is also a great companion in battles and very useful in the base. We at MeinMMO explain where you can find and breed this Pal.

Finding Ragnahawk

Where can I find Ragnahawk? You can easily find Ragnahawk in the open world of Palworld. However, it usually has a slightly higher level, so you should be well-prepared before attempting to catch it.

You can mainly find Ragnahawk on Mount Obsidian. The Pals there typically have an average level of 30 to 40. Additionally, it can get quite hot in this area. If you choose this path, you should ensure that you are appropriately equipped for this region.

Breeding Ragnahawk

How do I breed Ragnahawk? Most existing Pals can also be obtained through breeding. This is especially practical if you haven’t reached a high level yet, as you can get Pals that would typically be too strong for you to catch in their respective areas.

When breeding, you need to ensure that one of the Pals is female and the other is male.

These Pals are suitable for breeding Ragnahawk:

  • Nitewing and Elizabee
  • Nitewing and Quivern
  • Nitewing and Pyrin
  • Azurobe and Relaxaurus
  • Cinnamoth and Relaxaurus
  • Nitewing and Warsect
  • Tombat and Blazamut

You can find more known breeding combinations here.

What do I need to breed Pals? To be able to breed Pals in general, you need to have reached at least level 19 and unlocked the breeding farm in your tech tree. For building this farm, you need the following resources:

  • 100 wood
  • 20 stone
  • 50 fibers

Additionally, you also need a cake to make the breeding of Pals possible.

You can find a detailed guide on breeding Pals here.

Palworld was very successful at its release but soon faced significant losses in player numbers. Even though player numbers have increased again with the new update, they are no comparison to the numbers right after the release. Read here why the community manager asks not to discuss player numbers: Palworld asks players to ignore a discussion about Steam that makes them look bad
