Once Human: All Deviations Overview – How to Find the Mutations

Johanna 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

In Once Human on Steam, you can not only have fun surviving with your friends but also with companions. With the so-called mutations, life becomes easier. We’ll explain the benefits of the companions and reveal the locations of the mutations.

[toc]

What are mutations? Mutations, also called deviations, are small alien-like creatures that you can choose as companions, giving you an advantage in the game. The exact advantage depends on the particular mutation. Each mutation belongs to a higher category but also brings its own individual abilities.

Autoplay

How mutations work

Which mutations can do what? Mutations are divided into three categories:

Combat
Territory
Technology

Combat mutations receive commands from you and assist you in battle. Territory and technology mutations help you collect and process resources. The furniture mutations can assist you in building furniture.

You can collect as many mutations as you want and swap them out at will when you need a different type. This way, you are not stuck with just one mutation forever.

List of all mutations with locations

7 stupid movies about sharks that you should only watch if you have absolutely no expectations

Niko Hernes 17. July 2024 Reading time 4 minutes

The White Shark by Steven Spielberg has shaped film history. Not only because of a legendary film, but it created the subgenre of shark movies. Most of them are pretty terrible. Here are 10 particularly bizarre ones.

How was this list created? For the list, films were chosen in which a shark or shark-like creature plays a central role. We looked at the most bizarre representatives.

Most films on this list are pretty terrible and produced with a low budget. However, they are all worth it for laughs with friends and a silly trash night.

[toc]

7. Sharknado 6 – The Last One

Start video

Sharknado 6 – Trailer for the shark movie with tornadoes and time travel

Autoplay

Of course, the Sharknado series belongs on such a list. As the name suggests, tornadoes with sharks terrorize the protagonists of the series. Of all the films on this list, this series is probably the best produced.

For this list, we chose Sharknado 6, which is originally titled The Last Sharknado: It’s About Time. In this part, the protagonist Fin must travel back in time to prevent the first Sharknado because that is the only way to save humanity.

Fun Fact: In the film Lavalantula (A movie about giant lava spiders), there is an Easter egg with the Sharknado character Fin, who says he must take care of sharks. (via IMDb)

6. 6-Headed Shark Attack

Start video

6-Headed Shark Attack – Trailer for the 6-headed monster movie

Autoplay

What is worse than 2- or 3-headed sharks? Exactly, a shark with six heads. With each part of this bizarre series, the number of heads increases, and apparently, so does the danger, as the shark can even go on land using its heads as legs.

In 6-Headed Shark Attack, a story about difficult couples trying to save their marriage on this island is also told. But to achieve that, the monstrous threat must, of course, be eliminated.

Fun Fact: On Tele 5, the film was featured in the format The Worst Movies of All Time. The format was hosted by Oliver Kalkhoff. In the show, the films were made fun of. (via IMDb)

A gaming headset for under 100 euros is almost perfect for the PS5, if your head isn’t too big

Benedikt Schlotmann 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

With the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max, you are currently getting a very good headset on sale. But only if your head plays along. MyMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann explains why the headset is worth it for you.

If you are not an elite gamer who can’t make anything of Prime Day, then you will find some exciting deals around gaming.

And if you don’t already own a very good gaming headset for the PS5, such as the Astro A50X or the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, then you should check out the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max. The headset is a really fair offer for under 100 euros.

The Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max is a good headset if your head isn’t too big

Why is the headset worth it? In my test on MeinMMO about the Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max, I particularly liked the balanced sound, which convinced me both in gaming and in movies.

Thanks to the USB dongle, the headset can be easily connected to the PS5, computer, or other devices. This is very practical, as the PS5 currently does not allow external Bluetooth devices without a dongle.

The headset is also very robust: a metal frame is integrated into the headband, giving the headset stability. In addition, it has a decent battery life of around 30 hours. The buttons on the headset also feel intuitive and are found quickly.

Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.

What are the downsides? I personally have a rather small head, so the headset fit me very well and I found it comfortable. However, the larger your head is, the more uncomfortable the headset is likely to be for you. This is because the headset casing is very rigid and offers little room for the head. Manufacturers like SteelSeries, which use a flexible headband, have more ergonomic options here.

I also find it unfortunate that the built-in microphone is at best “only” average. This doesn’t bother me much on the PC, as I have an external microphone connected to the computer. A very good microphone is, for example, the JBL Quantum Stream for around 100 euros.

Also not to be underestimated: In summer, memory foam can get very hot very quickly and cause sweaty ears. With fabric cushions like those on the Arctis Nova 7 (for the test), you will be better off.

A company wants to introduce the 4-day work week – In doing so, an employee is exposed who has been doing two jobs the whole time

Benedikt Schlotmann 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

A company wanted to test the 4-day work week. Instead, the boss surprisingly discovered that an employee was working for another company.

The boss of a company wanted to introduce the 4-day work week for his employees. Therefore, he wanted to find out where his employees spent their time so that he could optimize it. Our colleagues at Genbeta.com report on this.

Because the same amount of work should be completed in the future in 4 instead of 5 days. That’s why bosses like to talk about “optimization” so that less time is needed to complete tasks.

What exactly was the approach? To this end, he asked his employees to install the software DeskTime. This is a time-tracking program. In this way, the boss of the company could see where the employees wasted the most time and wanted to help them utilize their working hours better.

One employee, who worked entirely from home, had already caught the boss’s attention. Several clients had complained about his work, and his overall performance negatively affected the entire team. The boss explained in a conversation (via xataka.com): “I had a feeling that he was doing something in secret, but since there was no evidence, I didn’t want to jump to conclusions.”

The employee reveals himself: But then the employee made a mistake: he forgot that he had installed the software. And thus the boss could discover that the employee spent more than half of his day working for a U.S. company, which was recorded in the software reports:

It seems that he forgot about the monitoring software because once it is downloaded, it does not need to be manually turned on and off. I probably would have let him go anyway, but the recorded data was the missing evidence.

To prevent such secret work, some companies want their employees to return to the office again. For example, a boss forbade his employee from working from home, so he had to go back to the office. But he doesn’t just let it sit: Employee is forced by the boss to go to the office – He gives in, has his moment of triumph shortly after

“Maximum Human Inefficiency” – Microsoft explains why we accomplish so incredibly little work in the office

Gerald Wessel 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

The professional everyday life is diverse, but there is a commonality across many industries that consumes time – more than you think: conferences.

What is it that holds us all back? Whether we talk about a conference, meeting, or discussion, it always means the same thing: a gathering of people during the workday to talk about work. And for several years now, we have all been spending more time on it every day than we did in previous decades. A study by Microsoft now shows how drastic the situation really is.

Start video

Chef ruined his company in 59 seconds on Twitch – What happened to him?

Autoplay

The peak of a regrettable trend

In the study, Microsoft compares data collected from 2020 with that of 2022. Here, there is an increase in time spent in meetings of 153 percent, meaning that what used to be one hour in 2020 has become two and a half hours in 2022.

However, the baseline in 2020 was already visibly high: According to a different study from the Harvard Business Review, employees were already spending dramatically more time in discussions around tables than in the 1990s, namely about 50 percent more.

We have reached the point of maximum human inefficiency.
Jared Spataro, Microsoft’s Vice President for Artificial Intelligence and Work Trends

What is the reason? This can be excellently speculated and discussed about, but one reason, according to the researchers, is of course the pandemic. The increase in remote work/home office has led to the preservation of cohesion and, in order to coordinate, to more and longer meetings across the board.

However, the Covid-19 pandemic cannot solely be blamed, because, as mentioned above, there has been a clear increase in conference time since 2016 as well. One suspicion of the Microsoft scientists is that it has to do with a trend that has been observed for some time: companies themselves are to blame.

What has changed in companies since the early 2000s? Microsoft’s study suggests a link between the complexity of companies and the number of conferences being held. Different departments need to coordinate and/or agree separately on an increasing number of issues. The Wall Street Journal calls this the “coordination tax” that must be paid in the form of meeting time.

Jared Spataro further emphasizes that the involvement of employees in decision-making processes also leads to the creation of forums to hear their opinions.

Jeff Bezos, fortunately not a genius? This university lesson paved the way for mega success with Amazon

von Gerald Wessel

A rather specific view of employee deployment is held by a Polish video game developer. The studio wants to limit remote work and have more people in the office. However, the wish has two catches: It applies to really everyone – even from abroad – and the office, according to internal sources, is not at all equipped for this desired influx.

A military simulation has shaped gaming over the last 7 years like no other game – Now it is the big winner of the Steam Summer Sales

Cedric Holmeier 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

The Steam Summer Sale was some time ago, but the big winner of the sale is already 10 years old and has created an entire genre.

Which game is it? The military simulation Arma 3 performed really well during the Steam Summer Sale. As the publisher Bohemia Interactive announced (via Steam), the game sold over 100,000 copies on the first day alone. By the end of the sale on Steam, more than 500,000 new copies had been sold.

The game itself also grew by about 30% in player numbers (via SteamDB). However, Arma 3 is not an ordinary military simulation. There’s much more behind it.

Here you can watch the trailer for Arma 3:

Arma 3 is the founding father of the Battle Royale genre

What does Arma 3 have to do with Battle Royale? While Arma 3 is actually a military simulation that places great value on realism, there is a huge modding scene. It is here that the Battle Royale concept by PLAYERUNKNOWN emerged.

The mod gained more and more attention, and thus the genre took its course. Many of the biggest game titles that exist today grew out of the concept PLAYERUNKNOWN popularized. PUBG, with 3.2 million and Fortnite, with 3.4 million concurrent players, are among the most played online games in the world.

Alongside the standalone Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds, games like H1Z1, Fortnite, Apex Legends, and Call of Duty: Warzone have celebrated their successes with the genre that once broke through in Arma 3.

Baldur’s Gate 3 has cut content – The reason for this is the Ukraine war

Cortyn 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

Content from Baldur’s Gate 3 was never finished. The reason for this is the war in Ukraine – because of this, a studio had to be completely closed.

That some content in Baldur’s Gate 3 was never completed was suspected by many. However, this had hardly been discussed until now. Now, the head of Larian Studios, Swen Vincke, revealed in an interview that some content was indeed cut. The reason: the Russian invasion of Ukraine. One of Larian’s developer studios was indirectly involved, and had to be closed suddenly.

Start video

Baldur’s Gate 3 is coming to PS5 – Trailer prepares for console release

Autoplay

What happened? In February 2022, the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. Larian had a developer studio in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and had to make a quick decision: The studio was closed immediately. Vincke said in the interview with GamesRadar:

I had already thought in advance about what we would do if that ultimately happened. […]

The decision was made immediately: We cannot stay here. […]

We had to relocate people, because the way things were developing, it was already clear that it would end in a mobilization and that would mean: My entire team would have to go to war.

At that point, Baldur’s Gate 3 was essentially in the home stretch of development – after all, the RPG had been available in Early Access for years and had been continuously developed since then.

What did Larian do then? More than 90% of the team from Saint Petersburg was distributed to other studios, which meant that Larian “had to fight with embassies and consulates.”

Although they were able to relocate so much of their team, it still had larger impacts, as Vincke admits:

In a machine as complicated as an RPG, where everything is interconnected, if you suddenly tear out things, the whole thing collapses. Because things that need to be done will no longer get done.

The consequences of this were still felt long afterward: “You could see the aftereffects of that until the end of development.”

Some content was cut that did not make it into the final game. Vincke states that this “always happens” – but it is indeed “very rare for an entire studio to be lost during development.”

von Benedict Grothaus

What about the cut content? There are a whole series of contents that were considered or even partially created during the development of Baldur’s Gate 3 but did not make it into the final game. Many dialogue lines can still be found in the code – for example, concerning a werewolf companion or a playable part of hell.

Particularly curious was an incident a few weeks before the release when some journalists were shown the city of Baldur’s Gate 3 and were told that they could also explore “the entire upper city” – something that was not the case in the final game, as this part of the city is only accessible for the final battle.

Considering that Larian had to close an entire studio and relocate many developers due to a war, it is understandable that not all content made it into the final game. It is all the more remarkable that Baldur’s Gate 3 became the great game it is, winning so many awards despite these circumstances.

The team from Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 explains why you should please, please not play the new game now

The developers of the upcoming third-person shooter Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 ask you not to play the game yet – for a good reason:

Why shouldn’t you play the new game right now? Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 will be released on September 9, 2024, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, letting you play as a Space Marine in a shooter for the first time in over ten years.

Yet, even now, Space Marine 2 is being played by some players, months ahead of the game’s release. A nearly complete version of the upcoming Warhammer shooter has been leaked.

The developers of Space Marine 2 have now commented on the leak and made a clear request to the community: Do not play the new game yet, wait until launch.

They say that the leaked version of the game is almost a year old at the time of the shooter’s release, and they are saddened that some of the biggest fans will experience the game for the first time with this outdated version.

That’s why they also ask everyone to avoid playing the leaked version: “We ask everyone to avoid this unfinished build and not to spoil the game for those who are looking forward to experiencing it for the first time at release.”

You control one of the legendary Space Marines and fight against hordes of the alien Tyranids in various modes, utilizing superhuman abilities. The shooter will feature a cooperative campaign, a 6v6 multiplayer mode, and the PvE mode “Operations”.

However, Space Marine 2 might not only appeal to Warhammer fans, as the success of Helldivers 2 showed in early 2024: Cooperative shooters and PvE action still resonate well with many players: Space Marine 2 looks like a good cooperative shooter – even if you’re not a Warhammer fan

What kind of holidays are these? In Japan, there are some certified and registered memorial days or anniversaries that are based on various animes. These are series that have made a significant contribution to Japanese culture.

The following memorial days exist in Japan:

January 1: Astro Boy Day
February 27: Pokémon Day
May 9: Goku Day
July 22: One Piece Day
September 13: Fist of the North Star Day

Many of the anniversaries are based on a play on words or the start of the series. Goku Day falls on May 9, because the Japanese translation of Goku consists of the numbers 5 and 9. There are also some video games like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy VII that have their own memorial day.

On these days, new announcements related to the respective animes can take place. However, this is not a must: The Pokémon Day 2024 was celebrated this year precisely on February 27, while the One Piece Day in 2024 will be held on August 10 and 11.

On One Piece Day, there could be new details about Season 2 of the Netflix series:

The anime holidays should be taken with a wink

Are the holidays official? The holidays should be seen with a bit of humor. The Japan Anniversary Association has indeed introduced numerous memorial days that are sometimes based on the biggest nonsense. For example, on April 4, the day of yogurt with 0% fat content is celebrated. On August 22, the Japanese celebrate Hair Growth Day.

Accordingly, people do not get a day off on these days. You can think of the holidays like our Valentine’s Day. Although it is not an official holiday, it is recognized and celebrated by many people.

Once Human bans 430 players and publicly shames them

Christoph Waldboth 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

Once Human has been struggling with cheaters since its release. The development studio is now taking action and banning a whole host of fraudsters. However, even players who did not use cheats are affected.

What is the situation in Once Human? The game by Starry Studios is only a few days old, yet it is already plagued by cheaters. Numerous players report that they have encountered fraudsters. This is not unusual for a free-to-play game.

Therefore, the developers, who generally respond quickly to issues, have now swung the ban hammer. In one go, 430 dishonorable players were banned. Most of them are actual cheaters, while others are regular players who simply used one or the other trick.

Cheats and exploits lead to bans

Who was banned? It should be clear that using cheats in a game like Once Human is not allowed. Players who used them were banned and know why that happened.

They were punished severely. The ban lasts not one month or a year, but a staggering 3,600 days. This amounts to almost 10 years.

A smaller portion of the banned players did not use cheats and may have been surprised at first by the ban. In their case, exploiting bugs is the issue.

In a blog post on the developer’s website, they write:

We recently found that some players exploited bugs to gain unfair advantages. This undermines not only the fairness of the game but also affects the overall player experience.
Starry Studios on the Once Human website

Specifically, it concerns a bug that allowed players to enter forbidden zones. Items obtained from this were confiscated by the developers. The punishment for this is significantly lighter than that of the cheaters. It lasts only between 7 and 30 days. Cheats and exploits are not necessary to succeed in Once Human. On MeinMMO, you will find 9 useful tips for survival.

Banned players have been publicly shamed

How does Once Human deal with banned players? A ban alone seems not to be enough for the developers. Therefore, all usernames, the duration of the bans, and the exact reasons have been published in a list on the studio’s website.

This makes it visible to everyone who the wrongdoers are. Perhaps this acts as a deterrent against cheaters or simply informs those who did not understand why they were banned.

The bug along with the exploit that sent some unsuspecting players into a hiatus has now been fixed. It can be assumed that Starry Studios will act similarly with future bugs. Fairness and equality of opportunity are important to the developers of Once Human. An MMO expert has thoroughly tested the game and drawn a provisional conclusion after 160 hours.

WoW: The first raid in The War Within nerfs itself every week

Cortyn 17. July 2024 Reading time 3 minutes

In “The War Within”, the developers of World of Warcraft are trying out a new kind of nerf for raids. Each week, the raid becomes a little easier.

In a few weeks, the release of the latest expansion of World of Warcraft is coming. With “The War Within”, new areas, hero talents, and a story campaign that spans three expansions are waiting. There are also the “usual suspects” in the form of new dungeons and raids.

However, the first raid, the “Palace of the Neru’bar”, comes with a built-in nerf. Each week, the challenge becomes a little easier.

Start video

WoW: Trailer for the release date of The War Within

Autoplay

What is the first raid of The War Within? The first raid in The War Within is the Palace of the Neru’bar. As the name suggests, it involves fighting against the Nerubians, who have allied themselves with Xal’atath. This is not surprising, considering that these spider-like creatures descend from the Aqir and once worshipped the Old Gods.

In the palace, the goal is to overthrow the current queen, Ansurek, while also preventing Xal’atath’s plans with the Nerubians.

How does the raid nerf itself? In the palace, certain items drop from the bosses, known as “Nerub-ar Finery”. You can exchange these with an NPC each week to gain a buff that is active during the raid. The buff “Severed Strands” increases your damage and healing per stack by 3% and can be stacked up to 15 times – for a maximum of 45%.

As of now, you can unlock an additional stack each week, so you become about 3% stronger each week – and the raid correspondingly nerfed.

By the way, this buff applies to all characters in your war band. So if you want to play a twink later, they will already benefit from all the stacks of the “Severed Strands” buff that you have unlocked by then.

However, note that The War Within is still in beta. 45% seems very strong, so it is possible that Blizzard will adjust the exact value.

Why is Blizzard doing this? It is completely normal for Blizzard to nerf a raid over time. This usually happens in several ways.

Manual nerfs: The developers adjust the health points, damage, or abilities of the bosses to weaken them a little. These post-balance changes are usually made when certain bosses turn out to be too challenging.
Equipment: Characters’ equipment improves throughout the season, making raids easier on their own – simply because the heroes have better gear.

The new “Severed Strands” buff is a third method to give characters a small boost each week and nerf the raid “on the side”.

Blizzard does this so that all groups can eventually overcome the difficulty level they choose. In the past, Blizzard only designed raids for a small fraction of players, but now they want to encourage most groups to complete the chosen difficulty level by the end of the season.

WoW hotfixes from April 15, 2026 make raids and dungeons easier, fix annoying bugs

The most successful MMORPG from Germany since Tibia is not only becoming more beautiful but also conquering new platforms

Is this something completely new? No. Similar mechanics have existed in the past, such as in Icecrown Citadel (WotLK) or Uldir (BfA). Even here, additional effects became active after a while, either weakening the bosses of the raid or strengthening the heroic groups. Blizzard seems to have taken a liking to this type of weakening (or strengthening), which is why it makes a return in The War Within.

What do you think of this additional type of “automatic nerf”? A good thing to get a little better each week? Or annoying and disruptive, as it slowly erodes comparability? What you should still accomplish before the new addon, we have explained here.

Pax Dei is the best bad MMO in Early Access for relaxed strolls in front of a beautiful medieval backdrop

Karsten Scholz 17. July 2024 Reading time 5 minutes

Since June 18, 2024, the Early Access of Pax Dei has been running, and the developers are working hard to eliminate annoying bugs and issues from the beautiful MMO world. But how does the sandbox adventure hold up after all these weeks? MeinMMO editor Karsten Scholz provides a mid-term assessment.

Anyone who has read my play article from the alpha test phase of Pax Dei knows: I had my issues with the game. The sandbox MMORPG plays like a survival adventure without survival struggle in the first hours, vital features such as in-game currency or a recycling system are missing, and other areas (like combat) feel very unfinished.

Since Pax Dei changed hardly at all from the alpha to the start of the Early Access phase, I passed on another report in June. However, almost four weeks have now passed, and on the official Discord, update notifications are rolling in one after another. The community has also had ample opportunity to experiment with the fantastic building system of the MMO.

So I dove back into the servers to check the status quo of the game and to look for noticeable improvements in the beautiful medieval world.

Start video

Pax Dei: Trailer for the Early Access launch shows beautiful medieval world

Autoplay

Working on the fundamentals instead of major innovations

Since the start of the Early Access phase, the developers have been working hard to bring improvements to the servers of Pax Dei. However, the focus has so far been on fixing bugs, crashes, and other fundamental problems. The next patch is scheduled to be released today, July 17, 2024, at 12 PM.

However, due to these urgently needed works on the fundamentals, there has been no time so far to implement crucial missing features – such as the previously mentioned currency or a recycling system that allows players to dismantle items created solely for leveling. The combat system still has much room for improvement. And Pax Dei hardly ever feels like an MMO.

The community is working hard

This delay in content and feature updates comes at a price. During prime time, only about 4,000 players are currently online in Pax Dei on Steam instead of 11,500 (via steamcharts.com). On YouTube, Loki464 reports on how challenging it is to continue motivating guild members to log in regularly.

The perfect place for virtual strolls

The amount of time and energy the community has already invested in the first weeks of the Early Access phase of Pax Dei becomes evident as soon as you log in and look into the distance. Majestic castles line up next to magnificent villas, scattered mills, and quaint villages.

Across wide rivers, comfortable bridges suddenly span, their torches illuminating the dark night. Stone fortifications sit atop mountain peaks, casting their shadows over the valley. Sounds great, right? And it looks fantastic thanks to Unreal Engine 5 and the enormous visibility range.

And that is what has brought me the most joy in Pax Dei so far: strolling through the great medieval game world to collect resources while taking in the impressive works of the community. Also inspecting the interior from the basement to the attic for inspiration for my own wooden hut. It’s just a shame that the owners are so rarely online.

Fantastic works of the community of Pax Dei.

Cemetery of construction sites

In the game world itself, I only encounter other players sporadically. I already mentioned above: The numbers are declining; many interested players have turned their backs on the Early Access version or are currently enjoying summer.

Another result of this: among all the creative large projects, dozens of small construction sites are scattered about, consisting of little more than a few workstations, a fire, and some crates. There are also various other plots with unfinished houses, towers, and castles. It’s like walking through a cemetery of construction sites. That has its own charm in a way.

More about Pax Dei:

So my interim assessment is mixed: While the foundation of Pax Dei was refined in the first month of Early Access, crucial features and improvements are still missing. However, the constant patches and updates from the developers also show that the team is motivated to turn Pax Dei into a good sandbox MMO.

However, this will take time. Will the community have that much patience? A game that places such a focus on cooperation to carry out large building and crafting projects needs a large and active player base. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see server consolidations soon.

Diablo 4: Player destroys the best item in the game, “so you can see if it’s worth it”

Nicole Wakulczyk 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

To get an Uber-unique in Diablo 4, you need a lot of luck. A player dismantled one of them to unlock the transmogrifications.

Which item did the player destroy? It is the Uber-unique “Harlequin’s Crown”. The headpiece has fixed properties and is considered the best headgear for almost any build in Diablo 4. Many players also refer to the headpiece as “Shako”.

Those who want to find the coveted Uber-Uniques, especially the Harlequin’s Crown, need quite a bit of luck. One player even got two Ubers in a short period of time. And another player shows on Reddit the transmogrifications that the Harlequin’s Crown brings. However, he had to dismantle the item at the blacksmith first.

Why did he dismantle the headpiece? On Reddit, “rudowinger” writes that you unlock transmogrifications and their colors when you dismantle the Harlequin’s Crown. This means: You can apply the appearance of the item to other items in the category.

However, if you equip the Harlequin’s Crown without hiding or visually altering the headpiece, you cannot change its color. This is different for items whose transmogs you have unlocked.

In the comment, “rudowinger” writes that he dismantled the item and uploaded a screenshot so that other players can see whether the transmogrification and the colors are worth it.

A former beet farmer from Estonia is now working on The Witcher 4, impressed by his hobby

Jasmin Beverungen 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

Developer studios occasionally hire modders from the community to assist in the development of new games. A then 20-year-old beet farmer was particularly fortunate, as he impressed CD Projekt Red so much that he is now allowed to work on The Witcher 4.

How did he accomplish that? The beet farmer named Eero Varendi (via Moby Games), originally from Estonia, worked on his mods in the evenings. He uploaded his works in videos on YouTube. It was there that CD Projekt Red discovered the young man’s work and took notice of him:

There was a video on YouTube about a guy who reshaped the prologue of Witcher 1 into Witcher 3 without any modding toolset at all. I saw the video and thought to myself, “Damn, that’s such high-quality work”.
Pawel Sasko, CD Projekt Red, in a podcast with Flow Gaming

He asked another employee, who also began his career as a modder, if he knew the YouTuber. When the employee answered affirmatively, CD Projekt Red invited him over. The beet farmer submitted his resume and passed the hiring test, which focused on design, with flying colors.

The man from Estonia, who at the time was living in Australia, was hired by CD Projekt Red and brought from Australia to Poland. Pawel Sasko, Associate Game Director for Cyberpunk 2, praised his colleague and stated that he is now a Senior Quest Designer at The Witcher 4. The game begins a new saga and consists of more than one part.

CD Projekt Red even included an Easter egg from The Witcher in Cyberpunk 2077:

Modders are not uncommon at CD Projekt Red

How many modders work at CD Projekt Red? As Sasko revealed, half of the development team responsible for designing the quests in Cyberpunk 2 consists of former modders. Of the total 24 people, around 12 would thus be former modders.

Not all of the modders have previously worked on The Witcher and Cyberpunk. The Lead Quest Designer Błażej Augustynek started as a modder for StarCraft.

To gain a foothold in the gaming industry, Sasko advises young players to start modding. There are so many toolkits like the in-house REDkit modding tool. Some of the best employees that CD Projekt Red currently has are former modders.

How far along is The Witcher 4? In the same interview, Sasko reveals that the fourth installment of the Witcher series is set to begin production in 2024. Currently, 400 employees are working on the game. At the end of 2023, there were still around 300 employees working on The Witcher 4.

The title is intended to be further along than Cyberpunk 2, for which the production phase is still a distant prospect. Thus, estimating a release date for both games is difficult, as it will take several years before they are released.

It is no longer uncommon for modders to be hired for the development of a new game. The team from Starfield also hired a modder who was allowed to place trash in the game: Developer makes such good mods for Skyrim that Bethesda hires her, placed trash in Starfield

Baldur’s Gate 3 introduces Patch 7, brings many features that practically force you to return

Cortyn 17. July 2024 Reading time 2 minutes

The next patch for Baldur’s Gate 3 will be significant – bringing many reasons to dive back into the RPG.

Soon, Baldur’s Gate 3 will celebrate its first birthday after the release, yet new patches continue to appear, introducing new content and meaningful, improved features. The developers have now presented the new features of the major “Patch 7”, which is particularly interesting for fans of split-screen action, but there are also new elements for the Honour Mode.

Start video

Autoplay

What are the highlights? The key points of Patch 7 are:

If you play in split-screen and your characters are close to each other, the two screen halves will now be “connected”, creating a complete picture. Once you separate, the image splits again. This option can be disabled.
Many creatures in Honour Mode now have new, legendary actions, such as Malus Thorm or Dror Ragzlin, who can now command the spiders.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is also releasing the Modding Toolkit, giving mod developers new and improved ways to modify the game.
There are now many longer, evil endings. These were previously very short and often consisted only of a small scene lasting just a few seconds. There are many different variants, whether for the “Dark Desire”, the origin characters, or your own hero.

What else is in the patch? Aside from the highlights, there are many smaller new features and improvements that change mainly details. For example, the kiss animations of many companions have been improved.

However, the interactions between the companions have also been revised. Now, origin characters can talk to each other during the adventure, controlled by two different players – this was not possible before.

When will the patch be released? There isn’t a specific release date for the patch yet. However, the “Closed Beta” for the patch will begin on July 22, so one can assume that it will be a few weeks until the release.

More about Baldur’s Gate 3:

Is this it? Actually, Baldur’s Gate 3 wanted to gradually phase out patches and be “finished” – but it doesn’t look like that yet. The announcement also reveals that “Patch 7 is not the final update for Baldur’s Gate 3”. There are still features to come, such as crossplay, bug fixes, and some performance improvements.

Even though the release of Baldur’s Gate 3 was almost a year ago, the developers are still working on putting the game into its best possible state. A large part of the studio has already dedicated itself to the next big project – and it will not be another Baldur’s Gate.

Amazon gives away 17 games for Prime Day – But to get the best ones, you have to be quick

Christoph Waldboth 17. July 2024 Reading time 4 minutes

On Amazon’s Prime Day, you can secure a number of free games for PC. We show you which ones they are and how to get them.

What is Prime Day? Every year, Amazon has Prime Day, where numerous products are available at discounted prices. Prime Day lasts from July 16 to 17, 2024.

Gaming enthusiasts have special reason to rejoice, as several games are available for free. The only requirement is that you are a Prime member. Then you can choose one or more games on the corresponding page on Amazon.

Depending on the title, they will be added to your Amazon Games library, GOG, or the Epic Games Store. You need to link your accounts with Amazon for this.

Some of the following games are actually only available for free for the limited duration of Prime Day. Others will remain available longer, and we will point this out accordingly.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Official Coop Gameplay

Autoplay

All Free Games

Which titles are available for free? For gaming fans of different genres, Prime Day offers free games:

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

A fairly recent game is already being given away. Suicide Squad was released on January 30, 2024. It is a service game set in the antihero universe of DC. In the city of Metropolis, you fight against various enemies and meet different characters from the comic source material.

You can play the game alone or in cooperative mode with up to three friends. The game was not a success for the publisher Warner Bros. , which is probably one reason why it is already being given away. This offer is valid only for the duration of Prime Day.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

This is the second part of the reboot series of Tomb Raider. The game was developed by Crystal Dynamics, just like its predecessors. You play once again as Lara Croft. The adventure takes you to Siberia, where you are to find the famous city of Kitezh.

You control Lara as usual from a third-person perspective, with gameplay consisting of a mix of exploration, combat, and puzzles. This offer is also valid only for the duration of Prime Day.

Chivalry 2

The sequel to the first part released in 2012 takes you back to the world of the Middle Ages. In the second part, you engage in large battles with 64 players using various weapons such as swords, axes, or bows to fight for victory.

You play from a first-person perspective, providing a good sense of immersion. In addition to your weapons, cavalry and siege weapons are also available. The game was developed by Torn Banner Studios and was released in 2021. The Prime Day offer, like the previously mentioned titles, is valid for only 48 hours.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II

Here, we also have a sequel to a very popular game. While the first part was developed by Bioware, “The Sith Lords” was created by Obsidian, who are also responsible for very good role-playing games such as Fallout New Vegas and Pillars of Eternity.

In Knights of the Old Republic II, you have the choice to play a good or evil character. You can be a hero with impeccable morals – or a nasty villain. The story takes place five years after the predecessor’s story. Nevertheless, you don’t need to know the predecessor, as the storyline works on its own.

You can get this game for free starting now until August 14, 2024.

Call of Juarez and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood

There aren’t many western games, apart from gems like Red Dead Redemption or Desperados. The Call of Juarez series sends you into dusty western landscapes in first-person shooters. Both available games have two protagonists to choose from, each offering different weapons and thus play styles.

You have the freedom to either act offensively or sneakily attack with a bow. The offer is valid until July 24, 2024, for Call of Juarez. Bound in Blood is available for free until August 6.
