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.

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.

League of Legends has countless champions, who not only possess a set of diverse abilities but also sometimes more, sometimes less developed lore and stories. Beyond their gameplay strength, one can hence gauge their power. We present to you the 10 strongest champions according to their lore.
How was this list created? This list is based on the information we can draw from the game’s lore, that is, the descriptions from official pages, games, or other works. The strength in the game itself is irrelevant for this list.
If you miss a specific champion, please let us know in the comments. If you’re not in the mood for classic LoL, check out the new mode; it’s worth it:

10. Lissandra
Release: 2013
Quote:So many secrets, hidden in the ice …
Lissandra is an ice witch from Freljord. Together with her two sisters, she gained an ancient power, which cost her her sight. However, Lissandra was now able to walk in dreams. During a journey, she made a pact with the so-called watchers, who promised her more power.
But her pact did not go as expected, and she sacrificed her sisters to bury the watchers in true ice. Her only goal is to keep the watchers trapped in ice and to hide the legacy of her sisters. Lissandra’s power alone prevents the Void from overrunning Freljord (via League of Legends).
Quote:Two paths stretch before you, but you can only choose one
Soraka is an immortal being that transformed into a mortal shell to help humanity. She wants people to rid themselves of their wicked traits. Her power is so great that her mortal shell burns from within.
During her time on Runeterra, the cruelty of humans and their wars was revealed. Although she realized that she cannot force people to be good, she continues to try to help all beings (via League of Legends).
8. Aatrox
Release: 2013
Quote:I must destroy hope itself
Long ago, Aatrox was a warrior of Shurima who fought against the Void. But when Shurima fell, he and the other sun-born had no purpose and fought against each other. The people feared them and gave them the name “Darkin.” A single Darkin can take on an entire army.
Aatrox is probably the strongest of the Darkin. Aatrox was imprisoned in his famous blade, but once someone takes it up, he can control them. Aatrox becomes stronger with every defeated enemy, and his goal is the complete destruction of the world so that everything, including himself, ceases to exist (via League of Legends).

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.
You can see the very explicit trailer here:

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).
There are also freebies. For fans of the series, the Animalities are returning. Fatalities are the finishers of the series, where the opponent is eliminated in a brutal manner. With Animalities, the characters transform into animals and take out their opponents that way. The characters and the new story mode must be purchased. Animalities come as a free update for everyone.

Virginia

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.
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 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.

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.
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

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.

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.
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.

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.
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?

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.

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.
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.
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.

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.

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.
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.

In a new game on Steam, you can expect fast-paced extraction gameplay and PvE content in a tropical setting.
What game is this about? Surfpunk is a new cooperative game on Steam that promises you extraction gameplay and PvE. There is no exact release date for the game yet, but you can already add it to your wishlist.
Surfpunk lures you into a summery setting with tropical islands, where you take on the role of a battling surfer. The gameplay resembles a mix of the battles from Diablo and the extraction content from Tarkov.

In Surf Punk, you will become fighting surfers
What can you expect? As the trailer shows, Surfpunk offers you action-packed and fast gameplay. The game is described on Steam as a cooperative PvE extraction ARPG, and the first impressions quickly make it clear what that means.
Together in a group with other players, you will hop on your surfboards to explore the procedurally generated islands. There, you can expect not only loot that you want to grab but also plenty of monster hordes. You will fight against them to defend your loot and ultimately disappear safely with your surfboards.
You can see that each character also offers you a different play and combat style. Some attack with large two-handed weapons and slam opponents down with powerful spinning attacks. Others use simple swords or attack from a distance with firearms. Depending on your own style, you should definitely find the right character.
During a session, you should be able to quickly adapt to new situations and constantly develop your strategy, since you should even be able to craft and equip new gear during an expedition.

On August 3, the fantasy role-playing game will celebrate its first birthday. Since then, Larian has won numerous awards and is today often referred to as a positive example in an otherwise shattered gaming landscape, where mass layoffs and studio closures dominate the headlines.
Currently, among other things, a screenshot is being discussed on reddit that shows the Steam player counts for Baldur’s Gate 3. This is related to an article on the website Tech4Gamers, which highlights the phenomenon that Baldur’s Gate 3 still manages to reach over 100,000 players daily on Steam.
This screenshot shocked me.Because for a year, I have been one of those players. I can hardly believe that the adventures in Faerûn have fascinated me for so long. I just can’t let go of this damn game!
How is this possible? Baldur’s Gate 3 is a classic, turn-based RPG that you usually play intensely once and then set aside after a few weeks or even months.
For me, three factors are crucial for the fact that the role-playing game is still visited so regularly by so many people:
Quality
Replayability
Community bonding and engagement
The longer you play a game, the more issues and bugs you notice. After now a year in Baldur’s Gate 3, I’m no different. Of course, I see the quests that run into dead ends or that some characters like Astarion have received much more attention than others like Wyll.
However, I am getting closer to the 1000 play hours with ever bigger steps.
Because despite the shortcomings that Baldur’s Gate 3 particularly shows in the last third of the game, it is simply of high quality. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have achieved a Metacritic score of 96.
Middle finger to the AAA industry: Baldur’s Gate 3 was no coincidence
A hallmark of quality is related to the replayability of Baldur’s Gate 3. It is not an empty promise that you can experience the game in many different ways.
I still remember an interview I had with the lead developer Swen Vincke before the release of Baldur’s Gate 3. We talked about the ultimate evil path and why it is so important to him that the content in his game is of high quality, even if only a very small part of the players gets to see it in the end.
That is exactly what keeps pulling me back into the game. Even when I’m not actively playing, I keep thinking about what would happen if I just did certain things differently. Baldur’s Gate 3 rewards this time and again because I have always been able to find many new dialogues, details, or cinematics.
Who is writing here? Leya has been the editor-in-chief of MeinMMO since 2021. She has loved playing turn-based RPGs since elementary school. To this day, she is waiting for a remake or a sequel to Golden Sun. For MeinMMO, she primarily analyzes service games, which are the focus of the website, and is responsible for the content strategy.
Baldur’s Gate 3 achieves what service games want
But if Larian has understood one thing, it is the topic of community engagement. Never has it been so easy to connect directly with the community across various platforms and to become a part of it.
Social networks have made classic marketing campaigns almost superfluous. Players involuntarily become part of the marketing by sharing memes or their experiences and simply interacting with each other.
This is typically only seen in long-running service games, as these games aim to achieve exactly this longevity. This, in turn, can only be successful with a game that provides the foundation through quality and emotional engagement. Without one, the other cannot succeed.
I only truly understood the actual greatness of Baldur’s Gate 3 shortly before the release with the infamous bear sex scene, as absurd as it sounds. We never planned to cover Baldur’s Gate 3 extensively on MeinMMO. But when I saw that scene and its aftermath, I immediately wrote to the editorial team that we needed to spontaneously change our content strategy for Baldur’s Gate 3 and use all available resources for it.
This studio understood the internet, understood its target audience, the players, and understood memes.
However, I wouldn’t have expected that a year later, it would still be part of our content plan to publish at least one article on Baldur’s Gate 3 every day. By all standards, that should have ended about three months after release.
But here we are. Still more than 100,000 players daily on Steam. Not even counting the consoles.
And I am one of them.

Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins Jr. is extremely popular among a rather young audience on YouTube at the age of 19. He regularly attracts attention with questionable actions and scandals – he was even banned from Twitch for a while because of it. Now he is showing a particularly daring stunt.
Who is the YouTuber? The 19-year-old IShowSpeed seems to be stumbling from one scandal to another, but his hyperactive personality makes him extremely successful on YouTube. He made headlines by barking at small children.

Video shows how IShowSpeed jumps over an approaching car
What kind of stunt was that? On July 25, 2024, IShowSpeed posted a video in which he apparently jumps over his approaching Lamborghini from a standstill, which is designed entirely in the style of his great idol Cristiano Ronaldo.
For many viewers in this country, memories of Samuel Koch are likely to be awakened, who had an accident as a candidate on the well-known show “Wetten, dass..?” in 2010 when he jumped over an approaching car. It is also striking that in both cases, the father of the jumper was at the wheel. Koch has been paralyzed from the neck down since the fall.
After the accident, the show was discontinued, and in the following episode of “Wetten, dass..?” host Thomas Gottschalk announced that the current season would be his last. Although he is still active on television and radio, there have not been any major shows after “Wetten, dass..?”.
However, IShowSpeed emerged from the action unscathed. You can watch the video here:

IShowSpeed insists that the jump was real and even adds more: On his alternative X account, he claims that he did the stunt three times because the camera drone did not record the first two attempts.
The video editor of the YouTuber swears “on his whole life” that the action really took place and provides two additional clips with different perspectives:

The accident at “Wetten, dass..?” led to a discussion about a connection between increasing risk-taking and viewing figures (via Süddeutsche Zeitung). This connection seems to have been recognized by IShowSpeed as well, as his video on X has been viewed 45 million times – that is significantly more than his other posts.
In one of his recent streams, the German Twitch streamer Zarbex reports that he continues to receive invoices for church tax, even though he left the church three years ago.
Who is this streamer? Behind the name Zarbex is 25-year-old Maik from Schleswig-Holstein. His career began in April 2019 on Twitch, where he made content for games like League of Legends, Minecraft, and Rust.
He becomes truly known only in the course of 2024. While he averages 781 viewers in January 2024, this number rises to an impressive 6887 by July 2024.
The streamer makes a name for himself mainly through his open and direct demeanor. He doesn’t shy away from sharing intimate and often quirky details from his life, making him both fascinating and controversial. He also humorously comments on everyday situations, such as the current church tax issue.
Trymacs also started from the bottom and is now one of the most well-known German streamers:

“I had to learn this the hard way”
Why is he upset about the church tax? In one of his recent streams, Zarbex talks about the challenges he has faced since becoming self-employed in 2019, particularly regarding the church tax. “I didn’t know this beforehand, I had to learn this the hard way. […] The more you earn, the more church tax you have to pay,” he explains.
After his first tax return and the unpleasant experience associated with it, he decides to leave the church. However, this process is more complicated than expected.
To confirm his exit, he has to go to the office and pay a fee of 20 euros. “In order to leave the church and not have to pay overpriced church tax anymore, you have to cough up another 20 € on the table,” he recounts while symbolically banging on the table.

What bothers him despite his exit? Even after his departure, Zarbex finds no peace. Although this happened about three years ago, the church continues to contact him.
“I left the church three years ago, […] they regularly come to me and want money from me, and each time I have to say: ‘Dude, damn it, I left three years ago. Here is the receipt. I’m out!” he reports, annoyed.
He adds that the church still wants money from him to this day and that he has to call someone every time to clarify that he is no longer a member. “If I hadn’t kept the receipt, they would still be ripping me off – like a Christmas goose,” he adds.
How does the community react? Many from his community support him by sharing their own experiences. Numerous viewers report similar problems with church tax and other bureaucratic hurdles.

Lukas Metzer writes: ‘And it goes even further. If you and your spouse are of different denominations, meaning you are Catholic and she is Protestant, then you still pay taxes for her after leaving.’

The Season of Discovery has reached its fourth phase in WoW Classic. This game mode changes the MMORPG and brings new possibilities for playing your class. Many dungeons have been revised and can be played as raids. The German pen & paper author Hauke Gerdes is currently having a lot of fun with it, as he says.
Who is the genius?
Hauke Gerdes used to be part of Bonjwa, Kliemannsland, and especially Rocket Beans TV, where he is known as the game master of the pen & paper series Morrington Manor, B.E.A.R.D.S., and T.E.A.R.S.
Hauke currently lives in Tokyo, Japan, and occasionally streams on his channel on Twitch. Recently, he talked about the finished Coreborn project and WoW.
This is what Hauke says about Season of Discovery: In a conversation with his chat, Hauke brings up the topic of World of Warcraft. He says that since living in Japan, he has not really found contact with a gaming group.
Such “communities” would “consolidate” over the years, and it would be difficult to join from the outside. Now he has started Season of Discovery on an Australian server and explains what he likes about it:
This is the old World of Warcraft, into which new elements have been incorporated. You play the game from 20 years ago, but with new abilities, new content, and so on. This significantly changes the balance of the game.
Generally, one can say that you are much, much stronger than you were before. […] The classes are more fun. I find it much more enjoyable than when comparing it with modern game design in how classes are played. You achieve success moments more quickly, you level up a bit faster […]
Not so good, he says, is that some of the old content is somewhat devalued. At level 60, the pace could be a bit slower. He reached the max level three days ago and completed 15 dungeons right away; now he already has his first epic.

“Not what I wished for, but very clever”
Hauke goes on to elaborate that Season of Discovery is the smartest thing Blizzard could have done with WoW Classic. Both casual players and “sweaty gamers” have opportunities to find something for themselves.
However, he does not reveal in the stream what exactly he wished for.
However, Hauke does not accept the accusation that Blizzard simply copied old content here. In response to a user’s comment that the dungeons are not new, the author replies:
I would argue that the design of a dungeon takes one to seven days […] The mechanics, the bosses, and all that is what really matters. […] As far as I know, only the map already existed, and all content, all items, all boss encounters, and all NPCs in it are new.
With Vessel of Hatred, Diablo 4 receives its first expansion and thus a new antagonist: Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred and Lilith’s father. Many of you surely remember the Prime Evil from earlier, but do you also know how important he actually is for the story?
If you play Diablo 4, you will encounter Mephisto quite early in the game. He saves you from a spell, but appears there in the form of a wolf and gives you some cryptic messages along your way.
The further you progress in the story, the more you will deal with the evil. This makes sense: Mephisto is the father of Lilith, the main antagonist in Diablo 4. By the end of the campaign, the Lord of Hatred is even more or less freed.
This is where Vessel of Hatred comes in. The expansion follows the story in which Neyrelle has stolen Mephisto’s soulstone to escape to Kurast.
However, those who have just started with Diablo 4 may not really know this strange skull-headed figure. MeinMMO explains who Mephisto is and why he is more important for the lore of Diablo than any other character.
You can find all the info on Vessel of Hatred in our summary here. In the intro, you can see Mephisto’s evil power:

Mephisto: The First of the Three Prime Evils
Mephisto originated, like the other six evils, from one of the heads of the Prime Demon Tathamet. However, the Lord of Hatred is the first to emerge from the heads of the three Prime Evils (Baal, Diablo, Mephisto). He is the oldest evil. Here are a few details about Mephisto:
His true name is Dul’Mephistos.
He is the “Lord of Hatred,” feeding primarily on hatred—which is abundantly present in the Eternal Conflict between angels and demons.
Mephisto is considered the most intelligent of all evils. He not only has considerable combat strength, but primarily plans and plays his opponents against each other.
For some, Mephisto is seen as the true ruler of Hell. If there were to be one who could lead it, it would be the Lord of Hatred.
To stoke hatred, Mephisto not only creates discord between already hostile factions but also occasionally plays his allies against each other. Where the hatred ultimately comes from is largely irrelevant to him.
He is also regarded as an excellent general. Because many, even powerful demons, bow to his commands and follow his advice, he is seen by some as the leader of Hell.
Supposedly, Mephisto’s influence is so strong that fragments of his power are sufficient to corrupt everything that comes into contact with it permanently. In the game, you first encounter him in Diablo 2. There he can be found in Act 3.
For more background on the lore of Diablo 4 and especially the evils, we recommend the video series by Rhykker, even if it’s a bit older.
Mephisto is More Important for Diablo than Diablo Himself
However, Mephisto is important not so much as an actual character, but mainly as the father of Lilith and Lucion. Without these two, there would firstly be no world of Diablo, and secondly, we would never have reason to fight against the demons:
Lilith stole the Worldstone and, together with her “beloved,” the angel Inarius, created Sanctuary and the Nephalem, from whom humans later emerged.
Lucion led the Triune, a religion that aimed to strengthen the demons’ influence in Sanctuary under the pretense of benevolence.
What is the Worldstone?
The artifact, also known as the “Heart of Creation,” grants something akin to omnipotence. With a thought, realities can be created and worlds destroyed. The Eternal Conflict, that is, the battle between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells, revolves solely around the Worldstone.
Only through his two children does it even come to the point that we must fight against demons (and partially angels) in 5 video games today.
Diablo 4: The First Part of the “Book of Lorath”, the New Lore Series
Without Mephisto, We Wouldn’t Fight Anyone Today
Sanctuary was originally hidden from demons like angels until a few human wizards summoned demons in their hubris. This is how Mephisto became aware of the world.
To gain the world and thus the Worldstone itself, Mephisto pursued a plan. The plan is the Triune, a religion led by his son Lucion.
The reason for the secrecy is that the evils did not want the High Heavens to become aware of Sanctuary. Because the powerful Nephalem and humans were to become his weapon. The Triune knows three “gods”:
Dialon, the Spirit of Determination – the guise of Diablo, the Lord of Terror
Bala, the Spirit of Creation – Actually Baal, the Lord of Destruction
Mefis, the Spirit of Love – Actually Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred
The further a believer delves into the seemingly benevolent religion, the closer they come to its “true” teachings. The Triune slowly corrupts its members, turning them into demon worshippers.
Inarius, who is still roaming in Sanctuary, recognized the plan and, as a counterpoint, founded the Church of Light—also disguised as a prophet who is essentially considered a god by the believers. However, the two religions long existed in a kind of arms race, what is now known as the “Sin War.”
Mephisto’s Children Are the Reason We Can Play Diablo Today
Lilith, Mephisto’s daughter, is ultimately responsible for the Eternal Conflict reaching Sanctuary. After her banishment, she returned to the world she created and there birthed the second generation of Nephalem—starting with a farmer named Uldyssian.
Although Lilith’s plan did not quite work out, Uldyssian rises to power and kills Lucion. In the ensuing dispute over the leadership of the Triune, Lilith appears disguised as Lucion and takes over, only to intentionally plunge the Triune into complete chaos.
Through the story, Uldyssian becomes powerful enough that the High Heavens also take notice of Sanctuary, and the Eternal Conflict eventually reaches the world of humans.
Ultimately, it may not be Mephisto himself, but at least his offspring that allows us to play Diablo today while being quite powerful. It’s even conceivable that this has been his plan all along. We will only find out what happens with him in Vessel of Hatred. You can find more background here: Lilith is the reason we are still alive – Why are we fighting her?

The poison expert Freyna has her strengths in damage over time. With this build, however, you can destroy the bosses in The First Descendant in seconds.
[toc]
What kind of build is this? Freyna’s specialty is dealing poison damage. Therefore, we want to primarily cause damage over time (DoT) with the damage dealer. In boss fights, especially Freyna’s ult is a powerful tool that deals significant damage.
In her ult, Freyna switches to a weapon that fires toxic bullets. To maximize the potential of the ult, we need to enhance weapon stats such as magazine size and fire rate. It is also important to boost our abilities.
The build presented here is based on the recommendations of YouTuber MxgicIQ.
Start video
The First Descendant: Encrypted Safes – What is it and how do you find them?
How do you get the most out of the build? Ideally, you should follow a specific pattern during the boss fight to deal even more damage with the build.
Switch to your secondary weapon “Lost Hope” during the boss fight.
Use your poison skills on the boss to activate the ultimate perk of “Lost Hope” and increase your firearm damage.
Fire a shot with “Lost Hope” and reload to activate the weapon module “Fire Fiesta”.
Switch to the Python – Fire Fiesta remains active.
Shoot the weak points of the boss with the Python.
When the boss goes down, activate your ult (fourth ability: Poison Baptism).
If the cooldown of Fire Fiesta has already expired, you can switch back to “Lost Hope”, fire another shot, and trigger Fire Fiesta once again. If you start Poison Baptism with Fire Fiesta activated, you will temporarily not consume ammunition with the ability, allowing you to deal even more damage.
Freyna Build – Reactor, External Components, and Modules
Reactor: Toxic Mechanic Reactor
Why this reactor? The Toxic Mechanic Reactor is suitable for the Freyna build for several reasons. Firstly, it has the optimization condition that you must equip the ultimate assault rifle “Lost Hope” and thus receive a bonus of 160% to your skill strength. Lost Hope is a good weapon for Freyna due to the special ultimate perk, especially when eliminating mobs.
Additionally, the reactor increases your “Toxic Skill Boost Ratio” and your “Tech Skill Boost Ratio”, which enhances the use of your abilities and further improves the build.
External Components: Metzler Set
Power Source
Metzler Auxillary Unit
Sensor
Metzler Sensor
Processor
Metzler Storage

Metzler Processor
Why these external components? The Metzler set has a set bonus that particularly benefits you when using your ultimate ability “Poison Baptism”.
If you have equipped two components of the set, you increase your ammunition capacity by 8 percent.
If you have equipped four components of the set, you additionally increase your ammunition per magazine by 9 percent, your skill costs by 15 percent, and your skill strength by 26.1 percent.
Thus, through the set effects, you deal more damage with Poison Baptism and can shoot longer with it, as the increase in ammunition per magazine also affects the ability.
Descendant Modules
Why these modules? The modules are designed to deal even more damage with your skills, especially your ultimate ability “Poison Baptism”. Accordingly, a large part of the chosen modules increases your skill strength, skill critical damage, and skill critical hit rate.
Here you can see all the used descendant modules again and what they do:
Neurotoxin Synthesis
Changes the effect of “Room-0-Trauma”: does not spread poisoning, but adds “Damage Reduction” and “Regeneration Weakening”.
Condition Combat
Increases max HP and skill duration.
Skill Concentration
Increases skill critical damage.
Spear and Shield
Increases Evasion and skill strength.
Dangerous Ambush
On successful skill attack while the opponent is not targeting you: Increases skill strength. On skill attack against immobilized enemies: Increases skill strength.
In this Freyna build, you use the two ultimate weapons “Python” and “Lost Hope”. Both weapons synergize particularly well with Freyna’s poison abilities thanks to their ultimate perks and allow her to deal high damage.
Why should you use these weapons? When you shoot a weak point with the Python, the opponent is inflicted with the “Loot” effect thanks to the ultimate perk of the submachine gun. Loot decreases the defense and poison resistance of the affected opponent by 10 percent. This means you can deal even more damage to a boss – especially with your skill “Poison Baptism”.
When you shoot a poisoned opponent with “Lost Hope”, it increases your firearm damage. Additionally, poisoned enemies explode when you eliminate them with “Lost Hope”. This explosion deals additional damage to nearby enemies. Furthermore, nearby enemies are also poisoned by the explosion.
How do you best use the weapons? The assault rifle “Lost Hope” is very effective for taking out mobs. On the other hand, the Python is very strong for boss fights. The two weapons not only complement each other well, but they also combine excellently in a boss fight:
If you first poison a boss with your poison skills, then shoot at them with “Lost Hope” and subsequently switch to Python, the Python also benefits from the boost of the firearm damage from “Lost Hope”.

In Once Human, there are scenarios on the servers that run like Seasons. Outside of that, there is the “Eternaland” – your own island where you can unleash your creativity. We explain where to find it and how it works.
What is Eternaland? Eternaland is your safe haven in the post-apocalyptic world of Once Human. There are no mutants wanting to take you out, but also no cute mutations that help you in your base. Additionally, you are not affected by star dust pollution there. Your buildings are permanent and never disappear. Upon entering, the NPC says “V” to you: It’s as if time stands still here.
Different rules apply in Eternaland:
Buildings have no height and size restrictions. They do not collapse if you remove supporting elements.
You determine who may visit your island and can invite friends.
You can select the weather conditions and the time of day.
You decide whether to allow PvP and which weapons and vehicles are permitted.
You can toggle LP, energy, hydration, and sanity on and off.
The island in Eternaland is not very big – but it belongs entirely to you.
How do I access Eternaland? In Once Human, you receive the quest “Eternaland One” at Level 20, which prompts you to visit Eternaland. Once there, you should go to the building in the center of the island. You enter Eternaland through the game menu by clicking on the small palm in the top right corner. In the main menu, you also have the option to enter Eternaland directly instead of a scenario.
You also exit Eternaland through the game menu by clicking on “Leave Eternaland” at the bottom. You can travel back and forth at any time. In Eternaland, there are “space-time canvases” that allow you to teleport to different locations on your island.

Is it worth starting with Once Human when the reset is coming soon?
Eternaland: Building and Selling
How do I build in Eternaland? In the building menu, you have access to all the elements that you have unlocked in the current scenario through the memetics. In Eternaland, you cannot simply use materials from the “outside world”; instead, Astralsand is required for building. However, you do not have to farm resources here, unlike in the normal scenario.
There are various ways to obtain Astralsand:
You disassemble elements in Eternaland in build mode, such as trees and buildings
You sell items from your backpack (seasonal/Eternaland) in Eternaland
You complete quests in Eternaland
Tasks earn you Astralsand (the currency with the triangle) in Eternaland.
In addition to build mode, there is an island market that you can open with “F8”. There you can sell your collected items from Eternaland, such as berries and seeds. In return, you receive Astralsand. You can also exchange items from your seasonal backpack for Astralsand. In the island market, you can also buy items like fishing rods, bait, seeds, and even rare artifacts for Astralsand.
In the island market, you can buy and sell items.The currency is Astralsand. At the start, you have 50,000.
How do scenarios play out? On the servers in Once Human, there are various scenarios. Each lasts six weeks. During these six weeks, also referred to as phases, new content is gradually introduced into the game. At the end of a season, you can send items to Eternaland via the territory terminal. Items in your backpack and territory storage are automatically sent there. Energy connections turn into Astralsand.
At the beginning of a new season, you receive material points, which allow you to transfer items from Eternaland into the new season. However, various items are also automatically transferred into the new season of Once Human, including star chrome and blueprints. Read more about it here: Once Human: Do you lose all progress?
