There are many dungeons in Diablo 4, but not all of them are easy to access. You will learn where to find the dungeon “Flooded Depths” here.
In Diablo 4, there are dungeons that are hidden behind strongholds and therefore do not initially appear on your map. You may notice this when you want to activate nightmare dungeons through their seals, and the message “You do not have access yet” appears.
One of them is the dungeon “Flooded Depths”. We summarize which stronghold you need to complete and how to find the dungeon afterward.
By conquering strongholds, you collect XP – so don’t forget to activate an elixir. With a quest, you can even use two elixirs and stack the bonuses.

How to find the Flooded Depths
Where can I find the Flooded Depths? The dungeon “Flooded Depths” is located in the far north in the area “Scosglen”, north of Cerrigar. You reach the area by walking/riding north from the waypoint “Marowen”.
In the area, you will find the corresponding stronghold “Glimmer of Hope”, which you must occupy. Once you have conquered the stronghold, the dungeon “Flooded Depths” will appear in the area.
The dungeon “Flooded Depths” is located at the stronghold “Glimmer of Hope”.After you conquer the stronghold, the dungeon “Flooded Depths” appears.
How do I conquer the stronghold? Glimmer of Hope is located with its lighthouse on the coast of Scosglen. When you enter the area, your character wonders why the lighthouse’s beacon is not lit. You will encounter some tide changers and deckhands there.
To find a way into the lighthouse, you first need to activate the winches and, because one of them is broken, search for a missing part. Inside the lighthouse, you will face the tide witch Ne’Gana. Once you have defeated her, continue up and activate the flame of the Glimmer of Hope. Then, activate the “Shrine of the Wanderer” to conquer the stronghold.
What is the benefit of all this? Strongholds are reset with each season, meaning you can conquer them repeatedly. By conquering a stronghold, you often gain new waypoints that you can fast travel to and also receive 100 renown points towards your regional progress.
In general, it is worth completing the regional progress because: you receive important bonuses for every new character (in the same mode). Dungeons also earn you renown points. Additionally, you level up your glyphs in the nightmare versions of the dungeons, which provide you with certain bonuses. Here you can learn how to farm and level glyphs most effectively.

In spring 2023, Twitch banned the streamer “Real_Bazzi” aka “Bazzi”. The ban was supposed to be permanent, but a year and a half later he is back – thanks to support.
Which streamer is it about? Bazzi is a German streamer who built his career with roleplay in GTA 5. However, in 2023 he suddenly started showing gambling – Twitch brought down the ban hammer:
Bazzi grew his Twitch channel from an average of 20 viewers to over 34,000 in just a few months in 2021.
The streamer benefited from the hype surrounding roleplay in GTA 5 and his brilliant idea: with his character “Marcel Heris” he parodied one of the biggest German streamers, MontanaBlack – real name Marcel Eris.
However, on February 20, 2023, Bazzi suddenly started with casino streams on Twitch, despite previously stating that gambling addiction had already destroyed his life once. After just about a week, the streaming platform banned him – seemingly permanently.
In June 2024, however, Bazzi celebrated his return to Twitch.
The gambling category slots was huge on Twitch for a while. Even the then biggest streamer xQc showed the so-called “casino streams”:

Why is the streamer allowed to return? Bazzi’s surprising return seems to be thanks to a court ruling. His casino buddy Scurrows celebrated the comeback on X, formerly Twitter: Bazzi must be glad about attorney Nik Sarafi, says Scurrows.
How is he doing so far? Bazzi held his comeback stream on June 3, 2024, with an average of 3,772 viewers – that is not a bad result, considering how long the streamer had disappeared from the scene.
In fact, Bazzi even had more viewers than before the ban with his last streams without gambling (via SullyGnome). However, it seems Bazzi is not fully trusting in peace yet, as he frequently jokes about when the next ban will come in his streams.
In the comeback stream, an old acquaintance also dropped by: MontanaBlack donated 100 subs, prompting Bazzi to shed a few tears of joy:

The long wait has finally come to an end. The alpha of The War Within is over, and the beta has finally begun. From now on, you can dive into the latest chapter of World of Warcraft and check out the new content – at least if you have a beta access. We will explain how you can obtain it and how to download the client here.
The new trailer for the beta of WoW: The War Within – featuring smirky Xal’atath:

How can you join the beta? There are two ways to participate in the beta. First, you can classicly apply for beta access. To do this, go to the official Blizzard website, log in with your Battle.net account, and indicate that you are interested in the beta. With a bit of luck, you will be invited to the beta in the coming weeks.
You will have guaranteed access if you pre-order the more expensive “Epic Edition” of The War Within. In that case, you will get direct access to the beta and can start playing immediately.
How do you download the beta client of The War Within? It’s simple and works the same as with other WoW versions.
Simply open your Battle.net client and select the entry for World of Warcraft.
On the bottom left, you can expand a tab with various WoW versions under “Game Version & Account”.
Under “In Development,” multiple entries will appear. If you are in the beta, you will see “The War Within Beta” listed there. Select this entry.
You will then need to click on “Install” or “Update” to start the installation.
After that, you can participate in the beta via the “Play” menu item.
If you want to switch back to the retail version, you need to close the WoW client and switch the version back to the current WoW version in Battle.net.
How do I know if I am in the beta? If you receive an invitation to the beta, you will generally be informed via email. However, you don’t need to click on any links. A look into the Battle.net launcher always provides certainty. If you find the entry for the beta of The War Within there, you can participate. If you want more information about The War Within, we have all the details here.
Will you jump into the beta of The War Within immediately? Or would you rather wait and avoid as many spoilers as possible?

It’s nothing unusual for streamers to face the toughest bosses in hardcore mode of Diablo 4. However, a PC company recently made a tough bet with one of them – and the entire community helped the streamer.
On May 31, the Diablo expert and Twitch streamer DarthMicrotransaction (short: DM) reported on YouTube that his sponsor Starforge had made a bet with him. If DM can defeat the boss Uber Lilith under certain conditions, he can raffle off a “really good PC” to his community. DM accepted the bet and prepared for days.
Start video
Diablo 4 Season 4 “Loot Reborn” in the gameplay trailer
“Everyone wants this free PC”
What were the conditions? DM must defeat Uber Lilith in hardcore mode. He is not allowed to use any “assists,” such as a scroll that protects him from impending death by teleporting him away. Specifically, this means:
DM must play in hardcore mode until Lilith dies – or his player character
Without a scroll of escape
He must defeat her on the first attempt
DM summarizes the conditions in the YouTube video and notes: “That’s probably the point where [the Starforge employee] might not realize it, but he messed up.” Because many witnessed the bet in the stream, according to DM “about a thousand people.” Everyone wanted to win this PC and the reactions were “quite funny.”
How did his community react? On his Discord server, various players immediately posted “Immortal Builds” for the Sorceress, including video clips. The general tone was, according to DM: “We can do it, guys.”
Individual players offered to help him test the builds against Uber Lilith in softcore mode before he tried it in hardcore mode. It was “super funny,” as everyone immediately banded together. In the livestream, DM then prepared for the bet.
How did DM prepare? He created a “clone” of his Sorceress in softcore mode to test the builds. He leveled the character to level 100, farmed the right gear, and went to the “Echo of Lilith.” His plan was: If he can defeat her multiple times, he would switch to hardcore mode and face the bet.
The video begins with the caption: “Starforge PC made a mistake.” There you can see his preparation and the final fight against Uber Lilith in hardcore mode starting at 10:52 minutes:

How did the bet go? On June 3, the “final day” arrived and DM faced Uber Lilith in hardcore mode. For skills, he equipped Firebolt, Flame Shield, and Firewall. In the video, you can see the community cheering the streamer in the chat with “Let’s Go!” messages. Starforge interjected: “And a bug is coming soon.”
According to the timer, DM defeated Uber Lilith after almost 34 minutes. He then said: “So Starforge, now that I’ve destroyed you in a competition, what’s next?” Then he turned to his community: “We should be able to take something else from them.”
During the fight, DM joked that the streamers wudijo and Raxxanterax were probably leveling their characters to level 100 by the time he defeated Lilith. While they weren’t quite that fast, the two streamers, along with two others, actually reached max level in hardcore mode within four hours. And they also faced Uber Lilith. Here you can find out how that turned out.

Destiny 2: The Final Shape was released on June 4, 2024, and had – not surprisingly – a rather rough start. MeinMMO shows you how the launch went and what the first reviews look like.
On June 4, 2024, The Final Shape, the highly anticipated story conclusion of the saga of Light and Darkness, was released. We at MeinMMO kept you updated with our ticker about the launch difficulties of the DLC.
Now, almost 24 hours later, the situation should have calmed down enough to take a look at the first reviews.
Start video
Destiny 2 shows the launch trailer for The Final Shape
High player influx at launch, but no record
How did the launch go? The Final Shape had a pretty tough start. Apparently, the servers could not quite keep up with the influx of players: Many players received error messages that the servers were offline, although others had no trouble logging in to the game.
Server issues are to be expected at such launches, but with such an important DLC, they must be particularly frustrating. After all, this is supposed to deliver the epic finale that has been in the works for 10 years.
Despite all the problems, Destiny 2 reached an impressive 220,000 concurrent players on Steam, minutes before the servers were even online. The numbers climbed in the following hours as more and more Guardians got into the game.
However, the next problems arose: Error messages, especially CURRANT errors, prevented players from traveling in-game or starting or completing missions. Particularly tricky: Those who get kicked from a mission due to a CURRANT error might miss important story cutscenes.
These problems likely contributed to Destiny 2 narrowly missing a new player record at launch: Just before the errors started to pile up, over 314,000 players were simultaneously in-game on Steam – the most since the release of Lightfall. In the end, however, the new record was missed by almost 2,000 players.
While it is possible that Destiny 2 may still break the record by the weekend if everything works, the difficulties have nonetheless dampened the hype around the important expansion for now – as evidenced by the first reviews.
Players mock: The Final Shame
What do the reviews look like? On Steam, The Final Shape currently holds 43% positive reviews from just over 1,300 ratings, categorized as “Mixed” (as of June 5, 6:15 PM). The main game also felt the frustration of players: there were only 211 positive reviews and 300 negative ones on June 5.
More negative than positive reviews in one day is rather unusual for Destiny (via Steam)
In the reviews, many players vent their frustration. Steam user 3than quips:
The best 40 bucks I’ve ever spent and the best two hours of my life… My favorite part was when Cayde said: “Destiny 2 servers are not available.”
Another player cynically praises the “loading screen simulator” as a pre-order bonus for 50 euros. There are also numerous more or less creative puns surrounding the name of the DLC.
However, other players urge to give The Final Shape a chance: They praise the expansion and argue that server issues at launch are just normal, and one shouldn’t immediately write a negative review.
The following aspects are particularly praised:
The story
The voice acting
The new weapons
So it might be worth waiting a bit longer for the final rating. Given the relatively low number of reviews compared to the number of players, it also seems that most veteran Destiny players are doing just that. The overall rating could change significantly in the coming days.
The characters from Dragon Ball fight either with full body effort or energy attacks. But what would it look like if Son-Goku and the others were equipped with weapons? A YouTuber came up with a crazy thought experiment and created images with the help of an AI, in which the Saiyans become operators in Call of Duty.
What do the characters look like? The YouTuber created a total of 20 different images with the AI. In them, we see the familiar characters from Dragon Ball, whose design comes from mangaka Akira Toriyama.
But instead of their usual tracksuits, the Dragon Ball characters wear chest armor and submachine guns. Many characters have the lettering “Call of Duty” on their equipment. Even Piccolo and Vegeta are depicted as CoD operators. At the end of the video, some characters even appear as Super Saiyans.

Dragon Ball: Crossover with Call of Duty fits perfectly
Does the crossover fit? Although Son-Goku and Co. mainly throw around with melee attacks and KI attacks, the military gear suits them incredibly well. The characters look as if they have spent years doing nothing but fighting with weapons, given their physique and expressions.
The images prove that Toriyama’s characters would be great as operators for Call of Duty. They would fit perfectly in a crossover with CoD, where the characters are available as skins.
Shooter competitors like Fortnite have already proven with crossovers with Dragon Ball and Naruto how well anime characters would work in a shooter. In Fortnite, it fits particularly well due to the comic look, but we can also imagine the warriors in Call of Duty.
Is such a crossover likely? So far, there have been many operators in Call of Duty who are more based on “real figures”. These include rappers like Nicki Minaj and Snoop Dogg or well-known soccer players like Neymar. Anime characters have so far left fans waiting in vain. But that could change in the future. Call of Duty seems to be opening up to the anime sector. The title has now announced a collaboration with Gundam, one of the biggest animes ever: Call of Duty is now collaborating with one of the biggest animes – players say: They come back for this

The Legend of Zelda is celebrating its 38th anniversary this year. A modder is modernizing it with Unreal Engine 5 in the form of a remake. New gameplay from it excites with unmistakable charm and stylistic confidence.
Which Zelda title is the modder recreating? The YouTuber Lloyd Empty has been working on a remake of the very first installment in the series: The Legend of Zelda for several years now. The game is the originator of the legend that began on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
What distinguishes the Zelda series from the crowd? What started in 1986 with The Legend of Zelda has expanded to over 20 main games and numerous smaller spin-offs to this day.
The latest installment is Tears of the Kingdom (TotK) for the Nintendo Switch. Its predecessor, Breath of the Wild, is the best-selling, with around 29 million copies sold. TotK follows closely with nearly 20 million. In 2018, The Legend of Zelda as a series was inducted into the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame, as noted on the website of the initiative founded in 1996.
If you enjoy the Zelda series and also celebrate Stardew Valley, you should take a look at Kingsgrave; we have a trailer for you here:

What can be seen? In his latest gameplay video, Lloyd Empty shows several minutes of classic Zelda gameplay, including the overworld, a dungeon, a conversation, battles, and more.
What does the graphic style look like? In terms of visuals, Lloyd Empty’s work is comparable to the 2019 Switch remake of Link’s Awakening. The modder explicitly refers to this work by Nintendo as the main source of inspiration.

Is the Zelda remake available for free download? No, there is no way to play the current version in UE5 yourself.
Will it ever be released? Here, the best answer that can be given is a maybe. Below the video, he names his goal for this project as practicing creating a Zelda-like game in Unreal Engine 5.
What does the community think? Lloyd Empty’s creation excites the fans. Many praise the style and atmosphere in over 1500 comments under the YouTube video, with many feeling transported back to their youth. The longing for another classic 2D Zelda is palpable in the comments under the video – but unfortunately, so is the fear of Nintendo. The legal department of the Japanese gaming giant is known to be a modder’s nightmare.
In this regard, the user Dr.Frogerston seemingly sums it up for many, as nearly 3000 upvotes suggest:
[I’ll watch the video] before Nintendo shuts the project down.
And matt92hun agrees wholeheartedly: Yes, it looks too good for Nintendo to just leave it alone.
On Lloyd Empty’s YouTube channel, you can also find some other gameplay clips from the fan remake, some of which are significantly older but still worth watching today.
The games in the Zelda series can indeed be very time-consuming. If someone really wants to see everything in them, he or she may have to invest hundreds of hours. All side quests, collectible items, and other activities go far beyond the usual playtime for a run. A fan of the latest installment, Tears of the Kingdom, however, experienced some disappointments on the way to 100 percent. He was ultimately frustrated when he discovered that his save file was still functioning.

Gold Road, the new chapter of Elder Scrolls Online, takes you to a region of Tamriel that you may already know from Oblivion. The return to familiar places not only awakens nostalgic memories, many players are also excited about the attention to detail of the time travel.
What does Gold Road do really well? The new chapter of Elder Scrolls Online sends your hero to the Westgroves since June 3, 2024, a zone that fans of the franchise could already explore in parts in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion – only that there are nearly 800 years between the two games.
The new chapter, on the other hand, takes you to the Gold Road and to Skingrad, another imperial city known for its wine and the nearby castle. And just like in Blackwood, the developers manage once again to successfully transform the iconic locations into a modern guise while conveying a sense of “familiar yet distinctly different.”
The launch trailer of Elder Scrolls Online – Gold Road:

What does the community praise in detail? In several threads and posts on Reddit, many players specifically praise how well the developers at Zenimax have managed to bring the city of Skingrad to life in Elder Scrolls Online.
Nayrael writes (via Reddit): “Yes, I think this is Zenimax Online Studios’ best work so far regarding ‘nostalgic cities’. It really looks like an older version, not just because some parts have not been built yet, but also because it feels … well, it feels a little more early medieval than the TES4 version.”
oh_ataraxia raves (via Reddit): “I was really happy just walking around … the small alleys, the clutter, the decorations, everything looks great.”
championoffandango makes a comparison (via Reddit): “I love it and it is a much more realistic representation than what they did with Solitude. Cities constantly change and shift, even if their core remains the same. Having a city that remains unchanged for nine hundred years is kind of ridiculous.”
The images from Reddit user Thorolhugil underscore how closely the developers of ESO have stuck to the model from Oblivion:

In a post under the images, Thorolhugil added many details that stood out, such as the fact that the northern area of the city has not yet been developed in ESO. There is still farmland in Gold Road. However, some low fortifications already indicate the high defensive wall that protects the north side of the city in Oblivion.
You can find a specific image comparison between Oblivion and Gold Road below. In the images, you see the chapel that stands in the center of the city and has successfully withstood wind, weather, and conflicts over the centuries.
The chapel in Skingrad from Oblivion.The chapel in Skingrad from ESO: Gold Road.
How is Gold Road being received otherwise so far? The new chapter of the MMORPG had quite a difficult start. Even before the launch, visitors from the public test server were frustrated that the Westgroves would be smaller compared to regions of other chapters .
Even more serious, however, is the feedback so far about the new system of scriptwriting, which allows you to individually adapt skills from various skill lines to your own needs. There are a total of eleven new skills, and more than 4,000 combination possibilities are claimed to be feasible.
However, since only the Tamriel heroes who possess Gold Road have access to the new skills, the accusation of Pay2Win arises. At least if the new skills turn out to be the clear best choice for PvP.
In addition, the grind to earn the skills with all customization options across multiple active characters is very time-consuming. It certainly doesn’t help that the quality of the quests related to scriptwriting is also criticized.

With the Quantum 360P, JBL has introduced an affordable entry-level headset for under 100 euros. MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann has tried out the gaming headset and reveals how it performs in the test.
With the JBL Quantum 360P, there’s a new, lightweight gaming headset available for less than 100 euros. The headset emphasizes broad compatibility with multiple platforms (PC, PlayStation and mobile) and aims to impress with good sound and surround capabilities.
However, JBL is not alone in this idea. In the 100-euro range, there are several models from different manufacturers. And in my opinion, this is also the biggest problem for the JBL headset.
I have a fondness for hardware and tech and now own over 20 gaming mice, along with several keyboards and controllers. For MeinMMO, I have been testing hardware for our readers since 2019. Besides PC and the major consoles, I now also game on the Steam Deck.
The device in question is a review unit provided to us by the manufacturer for testing.

Design and Build
What is included in the package? The gaming headset comes with basic equipment. A charging cable, a detachable microphone, and a USB dongle for wireless connection are included.
Build of the headset: The design of the 360P is heavily based on Sony’s PlayStation 5: The headband and ear cups are in white, black and blue. If you are an aesthetics fan or looking for a headset that closely resembles the PS5, similar to the official PS5 headset (review), then you will get exactly what you expect.
However, the colors are not all successful. For instance, the symbols on the buttons of the headset, such as for powering on or muting, are also in white and therefore hardly visible.
The ear cups can rotate but are not adjustable, and there is no headband or stretchy component for the head.
The symbols on the headset are hardly recognizable. Not surprising, as white on white is simply not visible.
Processing
The headset seems almost cheaply made and does not give a truly valuable impression to me. The entire model is made entirely of plastic, with no metal reinforcements or other high-quality materials. Due to the abundance of plastic, the headset remains very stiff overall and lacks flexibility. How this will hold up in the long term during an extended test, I cannot say after about 4 weeks of testing.
At least the plastic has one advantage: The gaming headset is very lightweight due to the plastic. The model does not weigh more than 254 grams. More on this below.
Software
The headset can be configured with the Quantum Engine. The roughly 250 megabyte software can be installed on Windows with a few clicks, and the headset is subsequently ready for use quickly. Driver updates are then managed through the Quantum Engine.
The software is simple and understated. Through the equalizer settings, various profiles for music, games, or other areas can be created. Several profiles can also be saved within the software. This is straightforward and intuitive, and the software consistently performs well in tests.
Unremarkable, but intuitive and clear. The software can score points.
However, the surround sound promoted by JBL does not convince me in the test: This can be activated in the software, but it sounds very artificial and unnatural.
Comfort, Weight and Battery Life
What does my head look like? My head circumference is about 58 cm, so I have a rather smaller head. Generally, the headset fits well on the head. The ergonomic options are overall very limited: The ear cups only move horizontally and not diagonally, there is no headband, and the body of the headset is overall very rigid.
On my small head, it is usually comfortable, and as a glasses wearer, I have no difficulties. However, I can imagine that people with larger heads might have problems. Already with my test head (see pictures), the maximum of the headset was reached.
Weight: At 254 grams, the Quantum 360p is not a very heavy headset and sits well on the head.
Battery Life: The manufacturer states the battery life between 22 (wireless) and 26 hours (Bluetooth). In general, I have no trouble getting through two and a half to 3 days with the device – depending on how intensively I use it. Thus, the JBL Quantum 360P is in the midfield of the competition and approximately on the level of a SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7, which offers a few more hours (about 30 hours).
Ergonomically, the Quantum 360P is good, but for large heads like in the picture, it gets tight.
Sound
In terms of sound, you can tell the headset is a budget model. The sound is particularly bass-heavy and at times overwhelms the rest of the sound. It is worth making some fine adjustments in the equalizer to reduce the bass a bit. Otherwise, you will hear a lot of bass and few other details.
In my opinion, this is the most frustrating problem with the JBL 360P: You essentially get really good sound for the money, but you have to make several adjustments before the sound truly fits the game or situation. If you don’t want to bother with that, a lot of potential is lost that the headset could theoretically offer.
At least: Locating footsteps or enemies usually works well, which is a strong plus point for competitive gaming.
The “3D Surround Sound” mentioned by the manufacturer, which can be activated in the settings, rather falls short in testing. The artificially created three-dimensional sound space feels very artificial, and voices suddenly sound far away. In practice, it feels like I am sticking my head into a thick ball of cotton and the sound isn’t quite so close to my ears anymore.
Microphone
Unfortunately, the microphone is only below average and sufficient only for simple, quick conversations. The main problem is likely the wireless connection. My voice captured by the microphone is heavily compressed by the headset to be sent over Bluetooth or wirelessly to the computer. This adversely affects the voice quality. With a proper table microphone or a wired headset, you are usually better off.
At least the microphone is detachable. Therefore, you can easily combine the JBL headset with a table microphone. I did that and was satisfied with the compromise.
Conclusion: There are better and more sensible headsets for 100 euros
For whom is the headset suitable? The JBL Quantum 360P offers a multifunctional gaming headset for many platforms. However, in the test, the device only stands out to a limited extent in the competitive field, mainly due to strong competition:
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S not only feels significantly more valuable and robust, but it also offers a significantly better boom microphone and a more refined sound tuning. And with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3, you also get a robust and very comfortable gaming headset for under 100 euros.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
What alternatives are available?
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S for around 100 euros offers very good build quality, good sound, and a strong boom microphone. However, the headset is wired, unlike the JBL Quantum 360P.
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 is also a good alternative for less than 100 euros. Excellent comfort combined with decent sound and a reasonable microphone. However, the software is a bit overloaded.
With the Logitech G433, you also get a wired gaming headset for around 100 euros. The model offers good sound and is generally very comfortable, but with glasses, the headset can press on the ears.
More gaming headsets in all price ranges from 50 to 300 euros can be found in the buying guide on MeinMMO:
In June, the new MMORPG Tarisland will be released and aims to build on the success of World of Warcraft. However, fans of the genre are missing a feature that WoW has had for many years.
Update from June 5, 2024: The article has been fundamentally revised – originally it could be understood that users could only achieve appearance changes through spending real money, which serves as a substitute for a Pay2Win system. The gear system is now better explained as well. We have also incorporated more diverse voices from the community to present a more balanced perspective on this topic. A statement from the developers about the visual progression system has also been requested.
With a western setting and colorful graphics, Tarisland visually resembles World of Warcraft intentionally. The game was originally intended to replace WoW in China after it could no longer be offered there.
Meanwhile, we know: WoW is returning to China, but Tarisland will still be released. When it comes to appearance, however, Tarisland remains more limited than its predecessor.
Here, Tarisland explains again how they want to make money:

Tarisland explains the economic system of the MMORPG in the video
Skins and outfits in Tarisland are rare
What about the outfits and skins in Tarisland? In World of Warcraft, when you defeat a boss and finally get the desired piece of equipment you’ve been waiting for, you usually equip it immediately. The first look then falls on the character, who now also wears something new visually.
This “visual progression” is partly missing in Tarisland. The equipment items you receive do not change the appearance of the character. For that, you need “cosmetic items” (via Tarisland Discord). To obtain these cosmetic items, Tarisland offers various ways:
You can earn skins and mounts through quests, leaderboard rewards, achievements, and trading in-game currency for premium currency from other players. However, the easiest way to get new skins is through the real money shop, which constitutes the main business of Tarisland.
All games with visual progression either charge fees for expansions or require a subscription; Tarisland is a free-to-play game whose main business is that people spend money on skins and mounts.
Tarisland had promised to remove Pay2Win from the game, and now there is a monetization strategy that focuses entirely on skins and battle passes. By forgoing Pay2Win content, the new MMORPG is now financed through skin and mount sales.
Those who want to stand out from the crowd without spending real money can do so through small icons above the character’s head, which are available for achievements and from quests; MeinMMO author Cedric experienced this himself in the last technical test. For example, he received an exclamation mark and a mouth with an “X,” which stands for “Muted.”

Mounts are also available as rewards for various reputation events, and those who belong to the crème de la crème and make it onto the leaderboard will receive additional rewards for this. It is thus possible to change your appearance even without in-game purchases.
Several users on Reddit report that there is a visual progression in Tarisland when reaching certain levels in gear score. However, we have not been able to confirm this yet.
How is it perceived by fans? Fans have mixed opinions about the direction Tarisland is taking. Some find it really dumb, while others say they don’t care much. On Reddit, players express their opinions on the topic.
Under the post on Reddit, MongooseOne comments: “This is the same reason why I stopped going to the gym.” suggesting that progress would likely not be visible.
Hemperbud finds the whole situation not so bad on Reddit: “I actually don’t care as long as the gameplay is fun and the PvP is good. The older I get, the less I care about what my digital character looks like and the more I care about the time I spend in the game.”
Menu_Dizzy notes on Reddit that other MMORPGs have largely avoided this system in recent years: “Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t BDO and LA largely do the same? Skins change the appearance and not much beyond that?”
Wild Bastards is a new first-person shooter that stands out mainly with an interesting art style. A trailer has now revealed the release date and shows gameplay in various areas.
What game is this about? Wild Bastards is a new first-person shooter that you can play in single-player mode. The game is being developed by Blue Manchu, who have already received very positive reviews for their other shooter Void Bastards on Steam.
A trailer has now revealed the release date and lures with colorful gameplay in a cartoon-like world:
Start video
In Wild Bastards you play the deadliest gang in the galaxy
When will it be released? The game is set to launch on September 12, 2024, on the PS5, on Steam, and on the Xbox.
What can you expect? You start with the last two survivors of a deadly galaxy gang, fleeing to your home and simultaneously searching for your deceased members to revive them.
In total, there are 13 outlaws for you to play. Each one brings their own skills, weapons, personalities, and relationships.
As a player, you must maintain and manage the relationships of the gang members. Because traveling with enemy outlaws is quite difficult.
With resources, you can heal injured members and level up your different characters.
A mix of shooter, strategy, management, and roguelike
In Wild Bastards, a plethora of gameplay mechanics await you, wrapped in a colorful, procedurally generated world that feels as if you’ve been dipped into a cartoon.
In the Wild Bastards galaxy, several planets await you with different parameters such as gravity, terrain properties, and weather conditions.
A mix of first-person shooter, strategy game with thrilling battles, detailed management systems, and roguelike campaigns is promised to you.
Before you land on a planet, you must decide which gang members you want to send into battle. You should consider the terrain, enemies, and the characteristics of your characters.
In the trailer, you can take a look at the design and gameplay of the various characters, as well as some of the different planets.
How is it received? The reactions under the trailer (via YouTube) suggest that players are mainly curious about Wild Bastards due to its standout art style. “Visually distinctive, I must admit,” writes a user in their comment. Some others write that they find the style interesting and unique.
The Twitch streamers Trymacs and MontanaBlack have created tier lists in their streams by estimating the wealth of themselves and their colleagues. However, neither of them sees themselves at the top.
What is this tier list about? Currently, there is a trend among German Twitch streamers to estimate their colleagues based on their wealth. This trend has been joined by many streamers, including the big names MontanaBlack and Trymacs.
In their streams, they have recently estimated themselves and their colleagues based on their wealth.

Who is included in the tier list? In addition to heavyweights like Gronkh or Papaplatte, smaller streamers are also part of the list.
For example, streamers like CrunchyCupcake or Baso are also included, who may not be known to every active Twitch viewer of Trymacs and MontanaBlack.
For this reason, MontanaBlack also added the point I don’t know in his list. There, he accordingly placed all the streamers he does not know.
How do Trymacs and MontanaBlack rank themselves? It is probably not very surprising that both streamers rank themselves quite high. However, neither of them sees themselves at the top. In his video on YouTube, Trymacs says that he finds it very uncomfortable to estimate whether he has more wealth than a Fritz Meinecke.
Ultimately, Trymacs ranks himself above Fritz Meinecke, but states that he cannot compete with Gronk. MontanaBlack also ranks himself above, but sees the YouTuber Paluten at the top.
MontanaBlack also ranks himself very high but does not see himself at the top. He hesitates to place himself in the highest category, while he does not have to think long about content creators like Unge. He also mentions that all streamers within this list earn very good money.
In Genshin Impact, version 4.7 launches, and with it, a new character banner awaits you. With a new trailer, Hoyoverse wants to get you properly hyped for this.
Today marks the launch of version 4.7 of Genshin Impact. With this, the current character banner is disappearing, giving you the chance to obtain a new 5-star character. The first two banners in this version will introduce Clorinde as a new character and Alhaitham as a returning character.
A trailer now focuses on Clorinde and significantly heats up the excitement for Genshin Impact fans:

Through the two banners of the 5-star characters, you also have the opportunity to obtain the new 4-star character Sethos, whom you may have already encountered in a story quest. We have even more information about the new version for you here:
How is the community reacting to Clorinde? The reactions under the trailer clearly show that many players are looking forward to Clorinde as a new character and are hopeful for lots of luck to quickly add her to their teams.
In particular, they express their enthusiasm about a really well-done trailer, as many players find. “The graphics, the colors, the movements, the editing, everything is sooooo incredible!!!!!!! The best demo ever,” writes a player in his comment.
With this opinion, the user is definitely not alone. Many express their excitement about the action the trailer delivers. You actually only see Clorinde hunting an Anemo Hilichurl. But the execution of these scenes along with the music seems to convince.
Moreover, the trailer clearly shows that you get a tough huntress in Clorinde, who misses no detail, however small. As the trailer shows, an ambush is likely to be futile. “You can run, but you can’t hide,” writes a user in his comment as a possible motto for Clorinde.
In another video on YouTube, you can take a closer look at Clorinde’s abilities now.
What else stands out? A small detail has also caught the viewers’ attention. Some write that the Anemo Hilichurl sounds quite “human”. This leads many to wonder whether there is a connection to a Hilichurl from the world quest “An Unfinished Comedy.” Many players wonder why Clorinde is bullying this one. Whether there really is a connection will likely be revealed.
Roblox is a sandbox game that is particularly popular among underage players. Within Roblox, you can create your own games or test the works of the community. The possibilities are nearly limitless: There are shooters, racing games, puzzle games, and much more. And now you can even work at an Ikea in Roblox.
What is the job about? The furniture store IKEA has opened a shop in the sandbox game Roblox. For the company’s Roblox branch, the corporation has also published an official job advertisement (via thecoworker.co.uk).
A total of ten employees are to be hired to work in the IKEA store in Roblox and get “a taste of what it is like to pursue a career in a real-life IKEA.” There is also a real salary of 14.80 euros per hour.
Within the Roblox IKEA, there are expected to be different work areas, including the showroom and the bistro. Employees will have tasks such as helping customers choose furniture and serving meatballs.
You can also visit a furniture store in another game, but here you can expect monsters instead of meatballs:

Who can apply for the position? Unfortunately, the position is only open to individuals who live in the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland. Therefore, German, Swiss, or Austrian Roblox players have no chance at the job.
Additionally, applicants must be at least 18 years old and should not currently be employed at a (real) IKEA.
Moreover, applicants must fill out a form that asks for typical information such as name, date of birth, and phone number, as well as social media accounts like TikTok or Instagram, if available.
Applicants will also be asked three “interesting” questions:
What do you think about being turned into pixels?
If you were a pixelated IKEA piece of furniture, which one would you be and why?
What would you do if we ran out of pixelated hot dogs in our bistro?
On the streaming platform TwitchTV, shooters and PvP games dominate the rankings. But what are actually the most popular MMORPGs on Twitch? We from MeinMMO will tell you.
What’s it about? In this article, we would like to introduce you to the most popular MMORPGs on Twitch. For this, we looked at the average viewer count over the last 30 days and created a ranking (via Sullygnome).

Rank 5 – Oldschool Runescape
Setting: Fantasy | Developer: Jagex | Platform: PC, Android, iOS | Release Date: January 4, 2001 | Model: Free2Play
What kind of game is this? Oldschool Runescape is an alternative version of Runescape, based on the state of the MMORPG in 2007. It is now more successful than the “real” Runescape and is still played by many people 23 years after its release.
In the MMORPG, you level up a character and its skills, living from its sandbox idea, where you can always set new goals for yourself. To this day, stories from the game keep coming to light, highlighting particularly dedicated heroes. Even when someone spends 149 hours gathering fruits to get a raccoon.
Also popular, especially on Twitch, is the so-called Hardcore-Iron-Man mode of the MMORPG. In this mode, your character is deleted if it dies. Additionally, you are completely on your own and are not allowed to trade with other players.
Oldschool Runescape experienced a significant upturn in recent times and can still attract more than 50,000 simultaneous players today, which is an impressive number for such an old MMORPG.

How does it stand on Twitch? In the last 30 days, Oldschool Runescape had:
On average 5,382 viewers (Rank 58 of all games)
3,875,395 watched hours
On average 142 active streamers
The numbers for Oldschool Runescape are comparatively stable. In November 2023, the game experienced a brief peak but otherwise remains around the mentioned numbers, regularly achieving ranks between 40 and 60 on Twitch.
What’s worth watching? RuneScape streamers often start crazy challenges to captivate viewers. For example, a “speedrun” in just 711 hours, in which the maximum skill level was reached. But daily life and grinding are also often showcased on Twitch.
In Destiny 2, every player wants to reach the pinnacle power level to push their Guardian to the maximum power level. In The Final Shape, there is also a new limit set at 2000. Here, you can find out how to reach it quickly.
What is the power level? In Destiny 2, your Guardian has a value that represents your power: the power level. Depending on how high this value is, challenging content becomes easier to play. This includes raids, dungeons, and even nightfalls.
The power score of your Guardian consists of the average value of your equipped gear. So, if you equip gear with a higher level, your power level automatically increases. Therefore, it is important to grind for new levels through powerful gear at the start of each DLC. We will show you how to do this in The Final Shape.
Start video

How to quickly reach power level 2000
How can I level up quickly? To know how to level up quickly, you need to first understand the level limits of “The Final Shape“. The following limits are known:
Power floor: 1900
Soft cap: 1940
Powerful cap: 1990
Hard cap/Pinnacle cap: 2000
Every Guardian starts with 1900 points. The “Soft cap” up to 1940 power can be easily increased with normal activities and loot from any source – it drops randomly. However, to reach the Powerful or Pinnacle cap, you need Primus engrams or Pinnacle gear. Without these, you won’t get higher items that boost your Guardian.
The first step to quickly surpass the “Soft cap” is to complete the new campaign on Legendary. Upon completion, you are guaranteed to receive a new Exo from “The Final Shape” and a complete armor set with a power level of 1960.
After you have completed the campaign, you need to seek out activities that provide you with Primus engrams. Since the new DLC, you no longer receive rewards for a certain number of completions from Gambit, the Vanguard, and the Crucible.
Instead, the new “Pathfinder” system supplies you with Primus engrams, EXP, and Glimmer dust. Therefore, you should initially focus on the Pathfinder for the ritual activities and the Bleached Heart. Once you have claimed all the rewards, you should secure Pinnacle gear from Pinnacle activities. These include: raids, dungeons, and exotic missions. This way, you should quickly reach the limits.
What should my power level be for the upcoming Day One of the new raid? The required power level for the contest mode on Friday is 1965. So it is perfectly sufficient if you complete the campaign on Legendary with one character and then take part in one or two Pinnacle activities for a small boost.
It is important to note that the mechanic behind the shared fireteam power will not be active for the contest mode. So you will have to grind on your own.
Do I have to level each character individually? No. Since the latest update, all your Guardians share the power level progress. This means that if your main Guardian reaches level 1960, your other two characters will also receive items that are at level 1960.
The Twitch streamer Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris is known for his love of fast cars. However, during a nighttime drive, the 36-year-old found himself in a precarious situation – the community’s reaction may be different than expected.
What’s going on with MontanaBlack? MontanaBlack is currently causing a stir on X, formerly Twitter, not only with difficult hints about free speech but also with his driving behavior.
In a story on Instagram, the streamer reported a critical situation on the highway where he felt his life flashed before his eyes. Instead of sympathy, there is frustration and mockery from the community.
MontanaBlack is not known for his calmness and occasionally loses his composure:

Near-Accident at 260 km/h
What happened with the accident? As MontanaBlack reported in his story, he was driving at night on a two-lane highway without a speed limit. The Twitch streamer apparently stepped on the gas: According to his own statements, he was traveling at 260 km/h when he spotted 2 cars in the right lane.
MontanaBlack says he wanted to alert the cars to his high speed and therefore used his headlights – this is completely legitimate and legal, as the streamer emphasizes. However, one of the other drivers immediately pulled onto the left lane right in front of him, forcing MontanaBlack to “virtually slam on the brakes.”
The streamer complains: Everything in his car flew around, even the iced tea fell over, and his heart sank into his pants. The other driver, however, did not apologize when MontanaBlack finally overtook him and then seriously “gave him two honks.”

Streamer Unintentionally Becomes a Poster Child for Speed Limit
What is being discussed? Although MontanaBlack emphasizes that his behavior was absolutely legal, many users on social networks criticize his driving style. Some users criticize that the streamer was driving so fast on a two-lane road at night or at least should have braked in advance when he spotted the other cars.
Moreover, there is widespread discussion about the meaning of the headlight signal: Some users believe the taxi driver might have understood it as a signal that he could overtake.
Some even go so far as to say that MontanaBlack’s behavior is the reason we need a general speed limit (via Reddit). Others simply mock: “Not the iced tea!” (via X)
However, there are also users who find MontanaBlack’s behavior perfectly fine and defend the Twitch streamer. The heated debate at least earned the 36-year-old a spot in the trends: There are supposedly more than 34,000 posts on X regarding the term “Monte.”
It should be noted, however, that not all posts refer to the streamer, as the term “Monte” also appears in other languages – think of the Count of Monte Cristo. Nevertheless, the sheer volume of posts gained MontanaBlack’s attention, prompting him to share a screenshot on Instagram – but without any comment.

Raid fans in World of Warcraft are dissatisfied. Because actually, there should be freedom from now on – but Blizzard has changed something.
Even though many are currently spending time in WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria, Season 4 is underway in Dragonflight. The final season of the expansion offers awakened raids and new challenges – and should actually provide more freedom starting today (June 5, 2024).
But that is not the case, as the weekly rotation of raids remains in place. Much to the dismay of some fans.
WoW: The War Within – All the major features of the new expansion
What was announced? The original plan was for the three raids of Dragonflight to follow a fixed rotation for only the first six weeks. After that, it was intended that all raids would be available at the same time in an “awakened” state, allowing raid groups to freely choose which raids they want to tackle that week.
What did Blizzard say now? With the end of the weekly maintenance, some players quickly noticed that the rotation is still active – only the Vault of the Incarnates is currently live again. However, in the official WoW forum, Community Manager Kaivax spoke up and explained:
We have reviewed the process again and can confirm that the 1-raid-per-week rotation is intended to remain for the rest of Patch 10.2.7.
With the launch of the pre-expansion patch for The War Within, all three raids will then be awakened at the same time.
When the pre-expansion patch goes live is not yet known. However, many suspect that it will coincide with the end of WoW Remix. That would be around mid to late August.
How the community is reacting: Although it is disappointing for many that Blizzard has deviated from the original plan, the change is certainly being discussed controversially.
On one hand, there are many who would have preferred more freedom. They want to choose each week which of the raids they visit. This would give them more and easier access to various upgrade badges without relying on “Mythic+”.
On the other hand, the change is also welcomed. Many are convinced that having all raids permanently active at the same time would have created a lot of pressure. Raid guilds could easily see it as a necessity to tackle all three raids each week – which would amount to a significant time investment.
Currently, there are pros and cons to this decision. However, most agree that Blizzard should have communicated this better in advance. It seems that this was simply overlooked. At least there is a consolation, as the beta of WoW: The War Within starts soon and should provide the necessary distraction.
