How does ESO help the user? Especially when she has phases where she is not in the hospital, user Jasmyn always enjoys being able to log into ESO to immerse herself in another world. She is grateful to be able to escape to a world where she has a capable body, with which she can, for example, run, even if it’s just for a few minutes a day.
In summary, she tells the community in her post that she simply wanted to say “thank you,” as the game has significantly enhanced her quality of life.

The user responds to many comments under her post, which seem to touch her visibly. She writes under one comment on Reddit that it warmed her heart.
Season 4 has been running in Diablo 4 for a month now and is doing many things right. Blizzard is already announcing Season 5 – and you can again test it in advance on a PTR.
In a post on the Diablo 4 forum, community manager Adam Fletcher announced on June 13 that the next update for Diablo 4 would be the Mid-Season Patch. However, this time there will not be the usual livestream for the patch. Instead, the team will talk about Season 5 in a stream. A PTR is also planned.

Season 5 will have a PTR
What do the developers announce?In the forum of Diablo 4, Adam Fletcher writes that there will be a stream on June 21, where the team will talk about Season 5. Fletcher specifically states that the upcoming livestream will be a “Season 5 PTR Campfire Chat.”
So we now know that there will again be a PTR (Public Test Realm) for Season 5, where you can test the new content in advance. However, according to Fletcher, the patch for the Mid-Season will come first, which will include “a lot of significant updates for the game, class balance, and more.”
When can I test Season 5? Nothing specific is known so far. Diablo expert and Twitch streamer wudijo suspects in his post on X that June 25 or July 2 could be possible start dates for the PTR for Season 5. In both cases, that would be a Tuesday. Also, the PTR for Season 4 started on a Tuesday, April 2, and ended a week later.
When will the Mid-Season Update come? The team initially planned to release the Mid-Season Update after the completion of the PTR. However, it is “better for all players” if it is released before that. Blizzard will publish the patch notes on June 14, and the update itself “sometime next week.”
As justification, Fletcher writes in the post:
Well, the PTR for Season 5 would contain some of these changes from the Mid-Season Update, and we didn’t want to put players in a “whiplash” situation when they switch back to Season 4 after the completion of the PTR. Therefore, we believe it’s best for everyone to deliver the Mid-Season Update earlier.
In the world of Sanctuary, “a lot is happening,” Fletcher notes. Here’s what we already know:
On June 14, the patch notes for Patch 1.4.3 will be released
On June 21, the “Season 5 PTR Campfire Chat” livestream will take place
On July 18, a stream about the new class, the “Spiritborn” will take place, where players will get a “deeper insight” into the class according to Fletcher
Season 4 is expected to end on August 6 – at least that is what is shown in the character selection in Diablo 4. Season 5 will then follow.
In the coming weeks, the Diablo 4 team will provide more information about Season 5, the PTR, and the specific stream times. Recently, Patch 1.4.2 was released, which included not only adjustments to drops and bosses in the dungeon but also surprisingly brought companions into the game: Diablo 4: New patch brings companions just the way fans have wanted them since release

Twitch-streamer Trymacs regularly plans larger projects, to which he invites other streamers. On June 8, he started a scooter tour from Milan to Munich, which he livestreams on Twitch. And already on the first day of the tour, there was an accident.
What kind of tour is this? Twitch streamer Trymacs continually plans larger projects, inviting other streamers to join. Most recently, he started a fitness challenge with his colleagues – his goal is to become more athletic again.
On June 8, Trymacs started a scooter tour that begins in Milan and leads back to Munich via Lake Constance, covering a total of 600 km. He captures the whole experience in his streams on his Twitch channel, allowing his viewers to participate in this experience. Also joining him are streamer colleagues such as Nooreax, noahzett28, and Zarbex.

“This shows how important a helmet is”
Who had an accident? Even though Trymacs is organizing the scooter tour from Milan to Munich, he is not the one who got injured right at the beginning of the tour. It was his Twitch colleague Nooreax who fell, as seen in the video on YouTube.
Trymacs seems to believe that Nooreax was quite lucky. Apparently, the group is watching a video of the accident together, and Trymacs comments that he could have broken his arm as well. “This shows how important a helmet is,” notes Trymacs. After the accident, Nooreax is still able to ride normally, as the helmet likely prevented worse injuries.
Below you can see the first day of the scooter tour in the YouTube video. The accident happens at 10:15 minutes:

How did the accident happen? The accident apparently occurred due to a sudden stop by one of the participants. Trymacs, who was riding close behind Nooreax, braked harder, according to Nooreax’s statement, which caused him to make a full stop. He then fell forward and hit the ground with his helmet.
Recently, the new Doom: The Dark Ages was revealed at the XBOX Games Showcase. While the trailer consists almost entirely of gameplay, the players’ interest is almost more focused on the crazy weapons. Now, a developer has spoken about it.
What kind of weapons are they? The new “Doom: The Dark Ages” trailer thrilled fans of the series. ID Software showcased nearly two minutes of gameplay in the trailer. However, the viewers also focused on the three different weapons that were featured in the trailer.
On YouTube, the following comments can be found under the trailer:
@renehoidal: “A shotgun that crushes demon skulls as ammunition – brilliant!”
@ColorblindMonk: “A machine gun with skulls as ammunition is exactly what I want from Doom”
@ChristianHuye: “Doom with a chainsaw shield is what I needed to see today”
The weapons in the new installment of the Doom series not only look brutal, they also have equally fitting names.
Here you can watch the trailer for Doom: The Dark Ages.
Start video
DOOM: The Dark Ages – Announcement trailer of the new hell shooter
“We are very good at naming.”
What are the names of the weapons from the trailer? Three weapons stand out in the trailer, which Doom’s creative director Hugo Martin comments on.
He says that the studio has made it their mission to “design the weapons in a way that they feel like the most powerful ones you have ever held in a Doom game, like the Skull Crusher you saw in the teaser.”
The Skull Crusher crushes skulls to fire at enemies. A weapon that probably only exists in Doom. The studio was creative in naming the weapons. “It’s called Skull Crusher because it crushes skulls,” he chuckles in an interview with Gamesradar.
Even with the other weapons, the creative director stays true to himself. The shield with the built-in chainsaw is called Shield Saw. “Then we have the Shield Saw, because it’s a chainsaw and a shield,” says Martin in the interview.
The last weapon from the trailer is a kind of spear thrower that quickly shoots long bolts. “The Rail Spike Gun is also shown in the teaser – we call it that because it shoots massive spikes,” says Martin. He believes the team is “very good at naming things.”
When is Doom: The Dark Ages supposed to be released? The release of the new Doom title is scheduled for 2025. The game is set to appear on PS5, XBOX Series X, PC, and in the Gamepass. This will make the new Doom one of the first games from Microsoft that will also be released on the Playstation. As the name suggests, the game sends you to the Middle Ages.
A new update from Helldivers 2 has been released that is supposed to improve many things at once; you will finally receive the information you need to defeat your enemies.
What kind of update is this? The new update for Helldivers 2 was released even before the new Warbond “Viper Commandos,” but the Warbond was not delayed. The new patch should delight players because this time almost nothing was nerfed, and actually, everything that was previously not so strong received a fresh coat of paint.
A new feature for the world map will also help you work better with the General Orders.
You can see the new Warbond “Viper Commandos” here in the trailer:
Start video

Map update makes coordination easier
What is this new feature? The world map of Helldivers 2 has received a new feature. You can now see the supply lines, or the reinforcement lines between the planets, in the game. This allows you to cut off the opponents from supplies and conquer the galaxy more easily.
But not only was the hub on the spaceship modified, but also the balance and fairness were tweaked. The planet modifiers and hazards like fire tornadoes or the thorny plant have been revised to provide you with fairer rounds.
What has changed regarding the balance? In Helldivers 2, the new update has practically changed everything. There were few nerfs and many buffs, especially for equipment, weapons, and stratagems that were previously rather weak.
In a detailed report on Steam, former CEO Johan Pilestedt took time to explain almost every change in detail. Regarding the patch’s goal, he writes: “With these balance changes, we wanted to enhance some of the weaker stratagems to make them more viable and bring more variety to the equipment.”
Weapons like the AR-61 Tenderizer, the PLAS-101 Purifier, or the R-36 Eruptor rifle have been buffed. Additionally, weapons that fire small calibers now deal a bit more damage to enemies.
As for the stratagems, the sentries received a buff; they can now withstand more. Furthermore, the “Machine Gun” sentry and the “Rocket” sentry received a buff to distinguish them a bit more from the “Autocannon” sentry and the “Gatling” sentry.
Many have unintentionally acquired Baldur’s Gate 3 – without knowing it. The developer doesn’t mind much and even gifts the game to them.
When gaming companies accidentally give something away, the mistake is usually rectified quite quickly. A free DLC, an incorrect unlock – a quick patch fixes such quirks. But Larian is different and says about Baldur’s Gate 3: It’s fine, you can keep it.

What was the problem? Those wanting to buy the physical version of the Collector’s Edition of Baldur’s Gate 3 had to wait quite a long time. In many cases, it has just been delivered and is reaching people now.
However, buyers had already received a key in advance to redeem, with which they could unlock the Collector’s Edition DLC – which includes some cosmetic goodies.
However, the code on Xbox actually unlocked the entire game.
Those who noticed this were able to use their DLC code to obtain Baldur’s Gate 3 or simply pass this code on to a friend or acquaintance.

What has Larian done now? In a message to the community, Larian has explained that they have now acknowledged the mistake. However, the people who wrongfully possess the game will not have it taken away. They are allowed to keep the full version, even if the code was not supposed to unlock it.
Additionally, those affected will receive another DLC code to finally unlock it.
This is how the community reacts: They celebrate Larian’s approach. They believe others should take a leaf out of this book. Because other companies, according to some fans, would have turned this into a huge PR disaster and either deactivated the versions or taken additional money from fans in other ways. Larian’s good handling of the community simply shows that they know how good their game actually is.
The fact that Larian does exactly that and instead says “It’s fine” makes them a hero in the eyes of many.

Pax Dei is known to combine a colorful mix of the best elements from survival and MMORPGs in a sandbox. Now the developers challenged streamers to get everything out of the game – with success.
How did the fortress come about? From June 7 to June 12, 2024, the so-called “Preview” week took place in Pax Dei. During this time, streamers and some viewers had the opportunity to try out the game.
To keep the players busy, the developers provided them with 4 challenges. They named the challenges on Discord as follows:
The Great Expedition: Explore Pax Dei and hunt specific creatures.
Gallic Herbarium: Collect a list of resources scattered throughout Gallia.
Para Bellum: Equip yourself for battle, defeat some named enemies, and enter the PvP zone – at your own risk.
Villa Extravaganza: Build the most beautiful house, village, or castle with your clan.
The “Villa Extravaganza” challenge is likely the most exciting. In just five days, the streamers and their followers were to show how well one can build in Pax Dei. The best structures have now been awarded, and the results are impressive.
Here you can find out everything important about Pax Dei:

How did the challenge end? The “Villa Extravaganza” challenge likely exceeded the developers’ expectations, as instead of announcing one winner, they crowned four winners.
The four winners and their entries were shared along with four additional honorable mentions in the Discord. We show you what the players have built:
Calek (via Twitch.tv) and the Lynnwood Clan built a little town.
Nina96 (via Twitch.tv) and her friends built a small cozy hamlet that would likely quickly become a guest favorite on Airbnb.
SpaceGoatOne (via Twitch.tv) erected a small square to celebrate together.
Dobrodziej (via Kick.com) built a massive fortress on a mountain.
The challenge was not only the building and the creative implementation of ideas, but also that the materials had to be farmed first before building was allowed.
What is the status of Pax Dei? The MMORPG Pax Dei will soon go into Early Access on Steam. Since June 4, 2024, you can secure different founder packs to play the Early Access version without restrictions. The more money you spend, the more character slots, building plots, and exclusive recipes you will receive.
Sailor Moon is back and one of the most popular animes in the magical girl genre. This summer, you can watch the two-part finale, Sailor Moon Cosmos, on Netflix. MeinMMO reveals the details.
Anime fans around the world can look forward to a magical comeback as Sailor Moon, the iconic heroine of many childhoods, returns with new adventures. Netflix has officially announced (via X), that both parts of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos: The Movie will be available worldwide on the streaming platform starting August 22, 2024. These two films were already shown last year in Japan and are finally coming to us with a delay.
Unfortunately, there is still no German trailer for Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos. However, you can already watch the official Japanese trailer for the first part here:

The Final Battle of the Sailor Warriors
What will the movies be about? The Sailor Moon Cosmos movies continue the legendary story that began with the rebooted series Sailor Moon Crystal (a total of 3 seasons) and evolved with films. The story closely follows the original plot of the manga by Naoko Takeuchi and offers fans a deep narrative of the adventures of the Sailor Warriors.
Sailor Moon Cosmos specifically adapts the final battle of the Shadow Galactica storyline from the original manga. The films are a direct continuation of the two-parter Sailor Moon Eternal released in 2021.
Sailor Moon Cosmos brings back beloved characters, but also introduces new ones like Sailor Heavy Metal Papillon, who has only been known to manga readers so far. With the two films, the long-running story will be told in full – perhaps this is really their last adventure?
What else is known? Directed by Tomoya Takahashi, known for his work on the Marvel anime. The scripts are by Kazuyuki Fudeyasu and character design has been taken over by Kazuko Tadano, who has previously worked on the designs of the Sailor Moon adaptations. The music is composed by Yasuharu Takanashi, who also composed for Naruto Shippuden. Did you know? The American version of Sailor Moon was so horrible that it was canceled after one episode

What were the results? 65% might initially sound tight, but looking at the results, it becomes clear that the winner was distinctly chosen. You voted and his name is Cayde-6, the old Hunter Vanguard with the loose tongue. A total of 1,674 Guardians (as of June 13) participated in the survey. The results are as follows:
Cayde-6 (65 %, 1,080 votes)
Mara Sov (5 %, 90 votes)
The Nomad (5 %, 77 votes)
Shaxx (3 %, 46 votes)
14th Holy (3 %, 44 votes)

Dominus Ghaul (0 %, 4 votes)
Calus (0 %, 4 votes)
Xivu Arath (0 %, 3 votes)
Clovis Bray (0 %, 2 votes)
Eramis (0 %, 1 vote)
When comparing the second and third place candidates, it is clear that Cayde won decisively. In second place is Mara Sov with 90 votes, and in third place is The Nomad with 77 votes. Following them are Shaxx with 46 votes, the 14th Holy with 44 votes, and even The Witness and villain from the Light and Darkness saga with 36 votes.
Why is Cayde-6 the winner? Anyone who has been playing since Destiny 1 knows that Cayde is just Cayde. He is funny, charming, loves to improvise, and is honest with the Guardians. Especially the development from Destiny 2: Forsaken touched many Guardians’ hearts.
Bungie let one of its most beloved Guardians die for the story, which brought tears to many fans’ eyes. Many players are looking forward to meeting the jokester again in The Final Shape to be entertained by his dry jokes once more.

It would be nice if they finally added tags for friends. I use nicknames as tags, but there’s only so much information you can fit there, says another trainer on Reddit

Still, only 20 gifts can be opened per day, notes another trainer on Reddit.

Changes, Improvements, and Bug Fixes
Problems with low “storage space” or “too many buildings nearby” can be resolved as follows:
Low storage space: Try to reduce the overall number of buildings, the number of different buildings, or the number of items and creatures. Leaving densely built areas or exiting and re-entering the world can also help. (Note: The storage space available to you depends on the platform you are playing on.)
Too many buildings nearby: Try not to build your buildings too close together. You should also use larger building pieces instead of several smaller pieces to achieve a similar result. Building at another location or removing buildings you no longer need can also be helpful.
Villagers in the rebel village no longer count towards your worldwide villager limit.
The display of the worldwide villager count in the village center now shows the correct number of villagers.
Skeletons now spawn with a lower chance in villages.
Rubies can now also be found in lava caves on Star Wars Islands.
Animals can now better avoid campfires.
Wolves have now learned to swim.

There, the game has received 86% very positive ratings from over 200,000 reviews. At the current price, this definitely suggests giving the strategy game a try.
Monster Hunter Wilds is supposed to be the new spin-off of the game series. In an interview with IGN, the developers talked about the game and how it compares to its predecessors. Wilds is supposed to be bigger and more extensive, but players are concerned about the coop.
Where did the information come from?IGN was able to talk with the developers of Capcom about their latest game at the Summer Game Fest. The main topics were the innovations of Monster Hunter Wilds, its size, and the beloved coop mode.
However, what really sparked conversations in the community was the coop mode of the hunter simulation. Already in its predecessor, Monster Hunter Worlds, players had to complete things like missions and cutscenes before they could go hunting with friends. This is said not to have changed, but the developers have implemented a new system that should facilitate cooperation.

Players are once again fearing a coop debacle
What did the developers say? In the interview and during the preview of the demo for Monster Hunter Wilds, it became clear that the maps of the individual areas are supposed to be twice as big as those of the predecessors. Additionally, loading screens are to be reduced. You are now allowed to switch areas without annoying waiting times and can immediately dive into the action. The hunters’ home base is also supposed to be located on the map.
Your Palico now also has a real voice that is supposed to warn you about things on the battlefield. According to Director Yuya Tokuda, the change was important because a lot happens in the battles and changes in the areas.
The coop is also said to have changed compared to MHW. According to Tokuda, you will be quickly grouped with your colleagues when you can start a quest. You will then be able to return seamlessly to the multiplayer gameplay, but there are sequences that must be experienced solo. Players are already worried that the developers have once again created a hindering coop experience.
What are players concerned about? The coop mode from Worlds is considered a favorite feature by players. Hunting colossal monsters with friends and emerging victorious is fun. However, in Monster Hunter, there is one thing that disrupts immersion, and that is missions and sequences that must be experienced solo. Players are also complaining about the recurring issue here on Reddit.
Reddit user Apollo779 states: “We had multiplayer cutscenes on the 3DS and also a few in Iceborne, where they only show the leader as the hunter. It’s so strange that they still have this problem.”
User MumrikDK also does not understand why this issue remains, even though the developers know how important coop is for the community: “Considering how cumbersome World was in this regard, it’s incredible to read that they didn’t completely redesign this aspect.”
Over the course of the expansions of Final Fantasy XIV, many new classes have been added. At the same time, existing classes are repeatedly revised and, above all, simplified. Now, the Director and Producer promises more individuality for the jobs.
Why is the community concerned? With each expansion, Final Fantasy XIV receives two new classes, also known as jobs. In addition, there are always major adjustments, sometimes even complete overhauls of existing classes. Two examples:
The Astrologian was a complex healer at release with a deck of cards. These had to be assigned to the correct group members for buffs. One had to think quickly to use the deck correctly. Meanwhile, the class has become far less complex after several fundamental revisions.

Final Fantasy XIV: Here are the 2 new jobs in Dawntrail – Pictomancer and Viper in under 2 minutes
With the release of the upcoming expansion Dawntrail in July, the Dragoon will also have major adjustments. This class will also be much easier to play, as the position buffs from the single-target rotation and two of the three jumps will be removed.
MyMMO editor Sophia Weiß has played the two new jobs and the revised Dragoon. You can read her conclusion here:
In addition to the simplifications of classes, the developers have focused heavily on the single-player experience during the patch series in the current expansion Endwalker. However, Square Enix has already announced that they want to bring the MMO back into MMORPG in Final Fantasy XIV.
Accordingly, players are concerned about the future of their beloved class. They expressed this in a survey on Reddit. Now, Naoki Yoshida has spoken out.
It can’t get any easier, says the boss
What does Naoki Yoshida say? In an interview with the colleagues from Gamesradar, the Director and Producer of Final Fantasy XIV, Naoki Yoshida, talked about the classes. Specifically, he addressed concrete changes to the classes, aka jobs, in the game – including the Samurai.
Naoki Yoshida says that the jobs, as they currently are, cannot be simplified any further. Jobs such as the recently revised Samurai will not be made any easier.
At the moment, he is also concerned about the overly simple playstyle of some jobs. At the same time, he is also aware that there are players for both complex and simple classes. As with many topics in Final Fantasy XIV, he has to master a balancing act here.
In general, Yoshida says that every player should have the opportunity to showcase their techniques and abilities. This is currently not possible yet. However, the team is working on a solution for patch 7.2 and beyond:
We will look at the jobs and offer more individuality for them.
Whether the changes mentioned by Naoki Yoshida will come and what they will look like is yet to be seen. However, it is certain that Naoki Yoshida and the development team of Final Fantasy XIV will continue to keep an eye on community reactions. By the way, for Dawntrail, they have also added a completely new dungeon feature to make it easier for you: Final Fantasy XIV changes one thing about dungeons and makes them much better

Many fans are longing for another Warcraft movie. But what is behind the rumors? Is it even realistic?
Since the Warcraft movie came out in 2016, there have been many rumors and discussions about it. Is there going to be a sequel? Is Blizzard working on a continuation? Or is there even a reboot with a different story? Is it worth bringing World of Warcraft to the big screen?
World of Warcraft: The War Within – Cinematic Trailer
How did the first Warcraft movie perform? The movie “Warcraft: The Beginning” was rather a flop in American theaters. It was only slightly better in Europe. However, the film was quite successful in China, allowing the costs to be recouped.
This gave rise to the rumors: A second film could very well be in the works.
What about the rumors? The rumors have been around for a long time – but none of them come from a reliable source. Often, they are just fan trailers uploaded to YouTube that claim to show supposed scenes from a new movie.
Currently, there are no concrete clues from trustworthy sources about the development of a new Warcraft movie. The other, less reliable sources can all be quickly exposed as fakes.
Will the film ever get a sequel?
What facts are there? For a possible continuation of Warcraft, there are basically only two statements that are really reliable.
Duncan Jones, the director, said on Twitter in June 2018 that things don’t look good regarding a continuation.
In 2020, there were reports that Legendary was working on another Warcraft film. But there were no details on whether it would be produced under Universal Pictures or under Sony, Warner, or Netflix. There have been no updates on this for 4 years, suggesting that the idea has been abandoned.
Is it completely impossible? No, of course not. Even if it seems unlikely that Blizzard will pick up the Warcraft narrative as a film again, there are other media. Especially in recent years, many gaming franchises have shown that adaptations as series can work wonderfully. Just think of Arcane (League of Legends), Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077, or The Last of Us. All these series have been well received and can be considered successful.
However, nothing has been confirmed in this regard yet. If anything is in development, it is likely still years away, and if anything at all, we would probably hear about it at the earliest at BlizzCon 2025. One should always keep in mind that there were a whopping 10 years between the first announcement of the Warcraft film and its release.
Where can you watch Warcraft: The Beginning? Currently, the 1st Warcraft movie is mainly available for streaming on Netflix. But it can also be rented on all other major platforms, such as Amazon, Sky, or Apple TV, for a fee.
Would you be interested in another Warcraft movie or series? If so, which part of the storyline should be highlighted?

The item is food for your buddy, which allows it to gain more hearts. Additionally, the distance your buddy needs to find candies is halved.
You can use the Max Potion to heal your Pokémon. Unlike the smaller potions, which have limited effects, the Max Potion heals all hit points of your Pokémon.

When you now open the game, you will find the two items in your item bag. If you check your journal, you will also find information here that you have received the items.
Amazon regularly provides such bundles, which allow you to secure rewards in Pokémon GO. When the next one will come and what it includes is not yet known.
What do you think about the Prime Gaming Bundles? Do you regularly claim them, or do you not own Prime? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments. If you want to know which events are coming up in Pokémon GO in June 2024, we have an overview for you.

Blizzard changes the rules of WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria. From now on, everything goes much, much faster – because you will get more Bronze and Power.
For almost a month now, WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria has been available. In this game mode, you not only level up your twinks super fast, but you can also earn almost unlimited power and a lot of cosmetics. Now a new buff has become active that makes everything even faster and ensures that you collect Bronze at nearly double the speed.

WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria – All Features at a Glance
What has changed? A new buff has been active for a few hours in the WoW: Remix game mode. If you look at your buff list, you will now see the strengthening effect “Timerunner’s Mastery,” which has two different effects:
Bronze from all bronze chests will be doubled.
Threads from all Eternity Spools will be tripled.
What does that mean exactly? In plain language, this means that you will collect Bronze much faster in the future when playing content that rewards bronze chests. This mainly applies to raids, which grant a bronze chest for every boss on normal or heroic difficulty. But the daily quests from the Eternal Dragonflight camps now also grant double Bronze – so 2,500 Bronze per quest instead of the previous 1,250.
Overall, raids should now be significantly more lucrative than before, as the Bronze per hour has almost doubled.
At the same time, your character’s power should grow much faster, as the power gain from all Eternity Spools (of every quality) has tripled. Where a legendary spool previously granted 180 threads, there are now a whopping 540 threads. Also remember to complete your special scenario every day to become really strong quickly.
Why is Blizzard doing this? Blizzard has closely examined the feedback from the last few weeks and wants to make the next 2 months even more enjoyable for the community.
The original plan was to reduce the upgrade costs for items in Remix and to reward all players who have already upgraded their equipment retroactively.
However, this did not work due to some technical issues regarding how WoW Remix interacts with Dragonflight. For this reason, they decided to implement these buffs instead, from which everyone benefits – whether one has already spent a lot of Bronze or is still at the beginning of the journey in Remix.
Community reaction: In the community, the buffs are generally received positively. Most are pleased that Bronze can now be obtained much faster. Some forward-thinking players had already suspected such a buff and saved up many bronze chests. They proudly show off their screenshots of dozens of bronze chests that they will now redeem.

However, there is also a part of the community that is somewhat dissatisfied. Many have played Mists of Pandaria very intensely in the first few weeks, poured all their Bronze into equipment, and farmed extremely hard. They feel a bit burnt out – and believe they would not have played so much if it had been clear in advance that Blizzard would massively increase the acquisition of Bronze and threads afterwards. At least farming Bronze is now significantly faster.
What do you think of the change? A good thing to unlock everything? Or a bit unfair to those who have already invested a lot?

The company behind the Raspberry Pi started with a huge success on the stock market. Thousands of investors were eager to acquire the new shares. But why is such a tiny computer, costing around 30 euros, so popular?
When was the IPO? On June 10, 2024, Raspberry Pi went public. The company was founded in 2012 as a commercial entity by the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
The IPO was a huge success: Raspberry Pi shares rose by up to 40% in early trading, before slightly retreating around noon to 3.85 British pounds (around 5 euros), which was still about 38% above the initial price. The IPO valued the startup at almost 542 million pounds (650 million euros). This was reported by our colleagues at CNN.com.
Raspberry Pi has a large fan base, especially its affordable price made it a hit
What makes the Raspberry Pi so popular? The Raspberry Pi is not much larger than a credit card and is a single-board computer. Theoretically, you don’t need more than an SD card with an operating system, and you can already use the mini-PC. Today, the mini-computer is used in numerous systems:
From screens to power control systems to smart speakers and robots, the board is used almost everywhere. Additionally, the small computer has a huge fan base and community and is purchased for thousands of DIY projects.
Another advantage is the low price: For a long time, the Raspberry Pi cost no more than 50 euros, and entry-level boards can be found for around 30 euros. However, since the Raspberry Pi 5, prices for the single-board system have also significantly increased.
What’s next for the Raspberry Pi? The company behind the Raspberry Pi plans to invest the money raised into the development of its products and the expansion of its educational activities. The latest model, the Raspberry Pi 5, was released in October 2023. Therefore, it is unlikely that a successor will appear anytime soon. The current model costs around 70 euros in the 8 GB version, which is quite a bit for a Raspberry Pi.
And some have been criticizing for some time that the company, which primarily grew through the community, is no longer taking the community seriously enough and is more interested in large customers and their money. The inexpensive models from 4 or 5 years ago are now a far cry. Back then, they promoted low prices because they primarily targeted schools and institutions with the Raspberry.
