Ruffy is currently in the Manga of One Piece on Egghead Island and is facing a dire situation – literally. One of his opponents is stepping it up and conjuring something that could be the most powerful hurdle on Ruffy’s path to becoming Pirate King.
Attention, Spoiler: This article discusses the events from Chapter 1109. If you want to read the chapter spoiler-free, come back at a later time.
Which opponents are we talking about? The Five Elders are the ones in question. Saturn is one of the members and has already traveled to Egghead Island to get the situation under control. However, he didn’t anticipate Ruffy’s Gear 5 power: The rubber man slams Saturn and throws him around like a frisbee.
But Saturn returns and begins to perform a summoning. Suddenly, four gigantic black pillars hit the ground. Sanji exclaims that this phenomenon also occurred when Saturn appeared.
Since Oda added the hint “The planets are aligned,” it is assumed that Saturn is summoning the remaining members of the Five Elders. They stand (after Imu) at the top of the World Government and will engage in the most intense battle with Ruffy that he has ever faced.
The Egghead Island Arc has received a new opening that you can listen to here:

What the Five Elders can do in One Piece
What are the capabilities of the Five Elders? The Five Elders consist of old men named after planets. Their names are:
Shepherd Ju Peter (Jupiter)
Topman Warcury (Mercury)
Marcus Mars (Mars)
Jaygarcia Saturn (Saturn)
Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro (Venus)
The remaining planets Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are the namesakes of the Ancient Weapons. It seems that the Five Elders do not age. Their appearance has not changed in 20 years.
The Five Elders have hardly changed in appearance.
The Five Elders possess the greatest political power. Their word is law, as they stand at the top of the World Government. However, they are not only politically powerful but also formidable in combat. In one chapter, it was already shown that the Five Elders can transform into dark figures.
The only one of the Five Elders who has already shown himself in battle is Saturn. He can transform into a large demonic spider with six legs and two horns.
He is immune to other devil fruit powers like that of Jewelry Bonney and has high resistance. With his clawed legs, he can impale others. Moreover, just his gaze is enough to injure others.
If all Five Elders were to enter the battlefield, it would be tight for Ruffy. Only Imu could represent an even greater threat on the side of the World Government. The resolution of who Ruffy’s opponent will be may come in the next chapter, which will be released on March 17, 2024.
With the latest update and patch, a lot has changed in Baldur’s Gate 3. Specifically, the romances have received some updates. Now, players have discovered how the strict Drow Minthara reacts when you are not angry enough with her. And she has some strong words for you.
Who is Minthara? Minthara is a dark elf and paladin. You can encounter her in Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3 when you roam through the goblin camp. She is one of the leaders there, alongside Priestess Gut and Hobgoblin Dror Ragzlin.
The three are planning an attack on the Emerald Grove, the druids’ camp near the crashed nautiloid. Additionally, they are recruiting followers of the Absolute for their cult at the command of their superiors.
If you support the ruthless Drow and stand with her against the Emerald Grove, you can trigger a romantic scene with her as early as Act 1. Instead of partying with the tiefling party during a good run, you will now celebrate with the goblins, and she will visit you at night.
Things get serious with her in Act 2: There, you will meet her again in the Towers of the Moonrise, where you must rescue her from a precarious situation. If you succeed, nothing will stand in the way of your romance.

Once not angry enough, and your relationship ends: Dumber than I thought
At which decision does she break up with you? If you play the Origin character Dark Urge, in Act 3 of Baldur’s Gate 3, you will face some tough decisions. If you are in a committed relationship with Minthara at that time, this triggers a pretty intense dialogue with her, at the end of which she always breaks up with you.
Warning, heavy spoilers for Act 3 ahead!
In the Sanctum of Bhaal, the Dark Urge discovers that he or she is the child of Bhaal. You now face the decision of whether to accept or reject Bhaal as your father. If you refuse, Bhaal will kill you.
The living skeleton Lazarus, whom you already meet in Act 1 at your camp, reveals himself as Jergal, the old god of death. You make a deal with him and can continue to live – but with consequences.
How does the dark elf react? One of the consequences mentioned is that Minthara breaks up with you. She is explosive and furious. She cannot believe that you would simply reject so much power. She literally cannot understand the world anymore. For her, there is nothing more important than power. How can her lover reject exactly that?
You have four different response options to her speech. But no matter what you say, she dismisses your words:
If you ask her if your love isn’t the greatest power, she replies, if you really believe that, you are dumber than I thought. If you remind her that she is only alive because you did not kill her when your urge tempted you to, she laughs: It would have been a mercy – then I would at least have been spared this drivel.
On reddit, you can listen to the full dialogue in English. User BardMessenger24 posted the interaction there in the sub:

Minthara reacts quite stubbornly to your decision. She doesn’t give you any opportunity to explain and simply leaves you behind. Do you think this is completely in character? Or do you think she is overreacting? Feel free to leave your comments on that.
Players have discovered a bug in Last Epoch that allows you to equip both a two-handed weapon and a secondary item. This is not supposed to work. According to the current patch philosophy of the developers, players claim that the bug will not be fixed for some time.
What kind of bug is this?
Currently, through crafting, it is possible to equip a two-handed weapon alongside a shield or a secondary catalyst.
Now fans are considering whether the bug should actually be a talent for Voidknights, who currently rank at the bottom of the Last Epoch tier list.
That’s why it’s so powerful: Logically, you need both hands to wield two-handed weapons. These weapons usually have better stats than one-handed weapons, but you forfeit another equipped item.
With the bug, you can now enjoy the advantages of both. This is particularly helpful for several reasons:
You can equip shields in your off-hand for better defensive stats or catalysts for more damage, so more options are available.
With the additional slot, you can equip a Legendary with a special effect and thus play completely new builds.
Through crafting, the second item becomes particularly powerful when you enhance it with runes and glyphs to reach its maximum potential.
Unlike in Diablo 4, there is no class in Last Epoch that can simply carry multiple weapons or weapon sets and benefit from their stats. However, due to the bug, something similar is now possible.

Last Epoch: Faction of the Merchant Guild or Circle of Fate – These are the advantages
“This will not be fixed until the next Cycle”
In the comments, fans are discussing what they could do with these new possibilities and quickly come to the conclusion that the “bug” should actually be a talent for Voidknights. Voidknights are a mastery of the Guardian, just like Paladin and Anvil Warden.
Voidknights draw on the power of the Void to use it for the greater good. With their abilities, which often combine attack and defense, they would be predestined for such a talent. And it would make them at least a little stronger.
The players on Reddit are certain that Eleventh Hour Games will not fix the bug for now. In the recently released Patch 1.0.2 with the major gold nerf, the developers explained how they plan to proceed in the future.
They stated: “Our current stance is that we do not make balance changes in the middle of the Cycle,” unless it is a bug causing crashes or performance issues. Both are not the case with this bug, players believe.
The explanation regarding the bug fixes has met with some discontent in the community. Many players wish that bugs would be fixed immediately. Others argue that situations like this are the reason why other developers interact little with the community.
Necromancers are one of the strongest classes in Last Epoch. With the “Wraithlord” build, you summon a massive ghost that tears apart all enemies for you. MyMMO explains the build and details skills, passives, items, and loot filters.
What kind of build is this? As a Wraithlord Necromancer, you summon numerous spirits that fight by your side and cover enemies in necrotic damage. It is a variation of the Specter build, one of the best builds in the Tier List of Last Epoch.
However, through the unique or legendary helm “Wraithlord’s Harbour”, you instead summon a ghost lord – a kind of gigantic and significantly more powerful version of the companions, bringing along two additional ghosts.
You then buff this lord with your abilities into a true monster that simply mows through the enemies. You yourself can comfortably watch.
The build first appeared on Last Epoch Tools in English, and we have translated and expanded it. The ARPG expert Raxxanterax also plays a version of the build (via YouTube).
Pros
Enormous damage, perfect boss killer
Pets do everything for you
Easy to play
Giant ghost lord!
Cons
Requires a specific item to function
Can lag a bit with very many enemies
The lord is not particularly bright (mediocre AI)
For the build, we recommend the Circle of Fate, whether you’re going solo or in a group. This way, you simply get your most important item faster. You can find everything about the factions in Last Epoch in our guide and a summary in the video:
Start video
Last Epoch: Faction of the Merchant Guild or Circle of Fate – These are the advantages
Skills and Passives for the Wraithlord Build
You need these skills:
Summon Ghost
Terror Shadow
Inferno Shadow
Bone Curse
Transplantation
You need these passives:
Acolyte
Necromancer
Lich
The most important items, best stats, and loot filters
For the build, the helm “Wraithlord’s Harbour” is absolutely necessary. Without it, you can’t summon any ghost lord at all. Before you have the helm, we recommend the regular Specter build (via maxroll.gg). Other important items are:
Exsanguinous (chest)
Last Steps of the Living (boots)
Death Rattle (amulet)
The experimental affix “Protection per missing life”
Reach of the Grave or Chronostasis (weapon)
Note: Currently, there is no German database for Last Epoch, and we have not found the items ourselves yet. Once we can source them, we will translate the names into German.
For the rest of the gear, you should focus more on the stats than on specific items. Your most important offensive stat is, of course, servant damage (not pet damage!). The most important defensive stat, apart from resistances, which you should definitely cap, is life, as the build relies on you slowly bleeding out. You have little life yourself, but a tremendous amount of protection. Other stats to look for in your gear include:
Intelligence
Necrotic damage / Necrotic damage from servants
Necrotic penetration / Necrotic penetration for servants
Critical avoidance
Protection per second
Here you can find matching loot filters for the build to import:
You can either carry 4 large and 4 medium idols (more defensive version), or 2 huge, 4 large, and 2 small (more offensive version). The important stats here are:
Huge (4 slots): Armor through Bone Armor and increased cooldown recovery speed through Transplant
Large (3 slots): Life, chance for death seals on servant hits, and protection decay threshold
Medium (2 slots): Increased life and resistances
Small (1 slot): Protection decay threshold and life
You build your blessings in the same way. Life is your most important stat, along with servant damage and resistances. Otherwise, you take blessings that increase your chances of helmets to get “Wraithlord’s Harbour” faster:
The Black Sun: Memory of Light
Ending the Storm: Sea Resonance
Dragon’s Dominion: Humanity’s Resolution or Dragon’s Dominion – Here you can hardly go wrong
The Age of Winter: Grael’s Determination
Spirits of Fire: Command Virtue; here you can decide freely which resistance you need more
Fall of the Outcast: Fortunate Winds or Mental Strength (for leveling)
Argentus Arrogance or Conquest Right, depending on which item you are missing
The Stolen Spear: Formosus Cruelty or Clan Enmity, depending on which weapon you choose – We recommend the staff
Fall of the Empire: World Decay or Initial Hope, depending on whether you are looking for general prefixes or want to improve your weapon
The Last Ruin: Heart’s Bastion or Elder’s Remains – Or for whatever slot you still need shards
The gameplay of the Wraithlord build is very straightforward: You summon your ghost lord with its ghosts. Then you buff your lord with Inferno and Terror Shadow and curse your enemies with Bone Curse.
Then you can watch everything die and teleport across the map with Transplant. While you do that, you’ll also reduce your cooldowns. You don’t really do anything yourself, just ensure that your ghosts remain strong.
While playing, you will continuously lose life, but that’s not too tragic because you get back a multiple of that as protection.
However, it is important that you resummon your lord every time you change the map. There is currently a bug that can cause your buffs to not apply correctly. Resummoning fixes the issue.
Mark Hamill once recounted in an interview about a line he was supposed to say in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. However, he begged the director to cut it.
As Mark Hamill, the actor of Luke Skywalker in the “Star Wars” films, recounted in a 1977 interview, a line was removed from the 4th film because he felt it was so bad that he did not want to say it.
Here you can see a trailer for Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope:

“Sometimes I dream about that line”
As Mark Hamill shared in the The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson , there was a line in the film that haunted him so much that he even dreamt about it and likely will never forget it for the rest of his life:
“Boy, I’ll never forget that as long as I live,” said the actor. “I sometimes dream about that line.”
You can watch the interview yourself, jump to 3:46 to get to the anecdote:

Then he played out the situation that had bothered him so much. Harrison Ford aka Han Solo said in the scene: “Listen, kid, I’ve done my part of the deal. When I get to an asteroid, you, the old man, and the droids will be dropped off.”
To which Luke was supposed to reply: “But we can’t turn back, fear is their greatest defense, I doubt the security there is greater than on Aquilae or Sullust, and what is there is probably geared towards a large-scale attack.”
At that moment, the actor internally died and only thought: “Who talks like that, George?”
So he begged the director George Lucas to remove the line, and indeed it was taken out of the script for Episode 4.
Did you know that there was a version of Star Wars where the Jedi and Sith repeatedly go to get a cold beer on the side? However, the director of the films did not like that at all. You can read more about it here:

The beta of WoW: Cataclysm Classic has started! Find out if the third expansion of World of Warcraft is as bad as its reputation. Those who want to follow the call will find information about registration and the already available beta content here.
What do I need to know about WoW: Cataclysm Classic? This is the Classic reissue of the third WoW expansion, which was originally released in December 2010. The launch is planned for summer 2024. The beta phase for Cata Classic has now begun.
Similar to the previous Classic versions of Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm Classic will offer a detailed adapted version of the original expansion (more on that shortly).
The announcement trailer of WoW: Cataclysm Classic is bold:
If you are invited by Blizzard for the beta, you will receive a corresponding email and can then download and install the corresponding WoW version “Cataclysm Classic Beta” under “In Development” in the Battle.net app.
Currently, the focus of the beta is on the leveling phase through the heavily revised continents of Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms. The following features cannot yet be tested (via official WoW forum):
Why is it worth taking a look at Cataclysm Classic? Looking back, WoW: Cataclysm is among the least popular expansions in WoW history. The reasons for this are manifold.
Due to the focus on the redesign of the old world, the endgame particularly suffered. There were large content gaps. Various originally announced features were scrapped. The raid finale was disappointing. Small guilds faced tangible disadvantages. The talent trees were smaller and more restrictive. The heavily criticized raid finder debuted.
With Cataclysm Classic, the Blizzard developers want to specifically address some of these weaknesses. They are considering the removal of the LFR tool, strengthening the guild system with a view to small communities, and expanding the endgame with a new dungeon format (similar to the titan run dungeons from WotLK Classic).
Furthermore, the update cycle will be significantly snappier than it was back then – similar to the previous Classic versions. Moreover, there will be many small improvements, such as account-wide transmogrification and a significantly improved auction house.
But is all of this enough to make the Cataclysm content enjoyable almost 14 years after the original release? Those who want to find out exactly that should register for the beta. The author of these lines has already sharpened the daggers and packed the saddlebags. But maybe you belong to the numerous players who are not excited about WoW: Cataclysm Classic.

Actually, the FC Fantasy Heroes have no direct influence on their upgrades, as they can no longer shape events on the real football pitch due to their career endings. However, one player in FC 24 Ultimate Team is the exception. She has her path to becoming one of the best defenders in the virtual trading card game firmly in her own hands.
This is the situation:
EA Sports released the second team of the FC Fantasy promo last Friday, which included not only active professionals but also improved hero versions. Just like with the traditional fantasy special cards, these are live cards that can still increase their values.
One of these fantasy heroes is French left-back Sonia Bompastor, who, with a market value of nearly 900K, is considered one of the best defensive players. With the help of the upgrades, she could even become the best in her position.
Fantasy heroes can receive a total of two upgrades if their assigned club in real football meets the requirements. In Bompastor’s case, the women’s team of Olympique Lyon must secure two wins in their next four league matches and score at least eleven goals in total.

EA FC 24: How the new dribbling mechanics work
And although the 43-year-old is no longer on the pitch, she still has a significant influence on how strong her card in FC 24 Ultimate Team can still become!
Sonia Bompastor on her way to becoming the best left-back in FC 24 Ultimate Team: How she helps herself
This is why she has such a significant influence: Although the former national player has hung up her football boots, she has remained in the industry and is now working as a coach at the very club where she celebrated her greatest successes as a professional.
The Frenchwoman thus directs her team off the pitch and can make the right decisions to ensure her team performs well enough to earn both upgrades for her own special card.
Here are the chances: In the current season, Bompastor and her team have been performing exceptionally well so far. Olympique Lyon feminine is leading the table of the highest French women’s league after 15 wins in 16 matches. Two wins in the next four matches should definitely be possible.
Furthermore, the club currently holds a record of 59:9 goals this season, which averages more than three per game. Mathematically, the chances for both upgrades are extremely good. However, the truth ultimately lies on the pitch.
However, patience is still required until the first match day that counts. Bompastor’s team will be in action again on Friday, March 15.
The news shocks the anime world: Akira Toriyama has passed away at the age of 68 due to an acute subdural hematoma, that is, a brain hemorrhage. The creator of Dragon Ball died on March 1, 2024, but the news was only released now so that his family could mourn in peace and hold the funeral.
What was Akira Toriyama known for? His probably most famous work is Dragon Ball. He is responsible for both the original and the sequels Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Super. He also had a hand in video games related to Dragon Ball.

In addition, there are many other works that originate from Toriyama or in which he contributed:
His first published work is Wonder Island from 1978-1979. This consists of 2 one-shots.
One of his first more well-known works is Dr. Slump. The stories featuring Arale were published from 1980 to 1984.
His latest work is Dragon Ball Super. Here, he only outlined the main points of the plot, while Toyotaro was responsible for the drawings and the gaps between the important plot points.
Toriyama also contributed to several video games in the Dragon Quest series and Chrono Trigger.
The mangaka was also involved in some anime. Besides Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump, he worked on character design for Blue Dragon.
His probably last work on an anime can be seen in Dragon Ball Daima:

The world mourns Akira Toriyama
How are other industry figures reacting? Just a few hours after the news of his death broke, many mangaka have spoken out. This includes Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece, and Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of Naruto. Toriyama is considered a pioneer in the manga industry and paved the way for many younger colleagues who are now mourning.
Oda writes that he admired Toriyama since childhood and is filled with sadness:
I was one of those who took the baton from the days when reading manga made one foolish, and he created an era where both adults and children could enjoy reading manga. He showed us the dream that manga could be spread worldwide. It was like watching a hero advance.
Kishimoto finds it noticeably harder to find the right words for such sad news. He struggles with the words and instead shares how he perceived Toriyama:
Even if I had a bad experience, watching Dragon Ball weekly made me forget it. It was a relief for me, a country boy who had nothing. Because Dragon Ball was really fun!
Many are struggling to find the right words. The CEO of CyberConnect2, Hiroshi Matsuyama, is also visibly affected. The company worked with Toriyama on different video games like Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. He writes on Twitter that the company will therefore be closed out of grief:
Although I was shocked by the news of Akira Toriyama-sensei’s death, I always live by the motto “No despair.” So let’s turn this sadness into strength and work harder in manufacturing! I thought, but it was impossible. Some time ago, I cried during an online meeting with another team, and the meeting was no longer held. […] As a game company entrusted with the work “Dragon Ball”, CyberConnect2 will temporarily close today out of grief.
How are fans reacting? Many fans on social media are shocked by the news. Their reactions are just like those of many manga artists. Their hearts are broken, and some even write that they cried at the news.
Here are some voices from the community on reddit:
JKKIDD231: “My friends and I used to sit in front of the TV at 6:00 PM during our childhood to watch the latest episode. It was a routine. Memories that last a lifetime. Rest in peace, legend.
moeshaker188: “His influence on the anime world is legendary. Rest in peace.”
Japhet0912: “My heart is broken. Celebrity deaths usually don’t affect me, but this death hurts a lot. Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama.”
I also have many beautiful memories from my childhood that I owe to Akira Toriyama. I remember the afternoons when I played outside with the neighborhood kids. Just as Dragon Ball was about to start, one of the parents called us kids that the anime was about to begin. Suddenly the yard was emptied as everyone ran home to watch the latest episode of Dragon Ball.
Of course, I also supported Son Goku with his Genkidama by raising my hands. Regularly, I would transform into a Super Saiyan in front of the mirror and anyone who annoyed me would get a Kame-Hame-Ha! fired at them. Of course, that didn’t have a big effect, but the memories still make me smile today.
Thank you for your works, for paving the way for the manga industry, and for all the beautiful memories you’ve brought to people around the world. Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama.

EA has re-released a bunch of classics from the past on Steam and is now offering the games directly at a steep discount. Among them are all titles of the famous strategy game series Command and Conquer.
What kind of games are they?
Command and Conquer are strategy games with base building and large battles. They are considered one of the cornerstones of the genre.
The series can be roughly divided into 2 branches: Command and Conquer, where fictional forces fight over alien resources and Red Alert, where powers like Russia, the USA, and Japan wage war in an alternate timeline.
The new bundle also includes the shooter Renegade and the spin-off Generals.
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 + standalone expansion “Uprising”
Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight
Additionally, the bundle includes the shooter Renegade, which somewhat resembles the early Doom titles or Unreal Tournament. For the bundle, you get a 50% discount and only pay €9.88.
So far, the ratings for the games are almost exclusively somewhere between 90 and 100% positive.
Additionally, EA has other classics in the new offer, such as the construction game Populous, SimCity 3000, or the 4X game Alpha Centauri. Here you can get to the EA sale on Steam.
A personal recommendation from the author is Kane’s Wrath, possibly the best part of the series:

Command and Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath – The trailer with gameplay of the strategy game classic on Steam
C&C is finally on Steam, but an important feature is missing
Command & Conquer is especially known for its exciting campaigns and battles against the AI. I myself played the games extensively earlier and hardly played any strategy game as long as the C&C series.
What makes Command & Conquer especially appealing to me were the battles at LAN parties – you know, back then when a dozen nerds met with PCs somewhere in a basement. C&C still offers a LAN mode today.
However, no Steam multiplayer has been added for the Steam version of the games. This means you have to either build complicated workarounds for games with friends (which never really worked properly with EA Origin), or you just have to play solo.
EA has left a lot of potential here. That it works is shown by the C&C Remaster from 2020 or the Stronghold Remaster. Unfortunately, still, under €10 is a good offer for the games, of which I personally especially recommend Red Alert 2 and 3 as well as Tiberian Wars and Kane’s Wrath. And if you wait a little longer, you can soon play the remaster of a true classic: Age of Mythology is coming back!

In a few days, a massive sci-fi series called 3 Body Problem from the creators of “Game of Thrones” will launch on Netflix. Today the final trailer was released and excited the community.
What kind of series is 3 Body Problem? The Netflix production is based on the famous Chinese book trilogy The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu and is adapted by the two “Game of Thrones” creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
In addition, 3 Body Problem is the most elaborate Netflix series to date, boasting a gigantic budget of 200 million euros, as you can read here from our colleagues at Moviepilot.
Here you can see the final trailer of the Netflix series in German:

Final Trailer for the Netflix series 3 Body Problem
How is the community reacting to the trailer? On YouTube, there are numerous positive user comments praising the trailer.
Not only is the outlook on the series positively rated, but especially the trailer as a whole package: with editing that does not reveal too much of the plot and suitable background music that creates a gripping atmosphere.
In addition, several users hope that the two “Game of Thrones” creators behind the series can deliver well again after the polarizing series finale. However, the trailer is already very promising.
Here we have gathered some comments for you:
@brycewinningham2791: “That’s how you edit a trailer. No revealing of the plot, just fascination. I got goosebumps.”
@jesserobkin: “Maybe it’s naive, but I’m confident that D&D will make it this time since they will only be adapting existing texts. GOT only crashed so much when they ran out of source material.”
@spoismael: “The best trailer so far in 2024.”.
@DressedRunner: “Sigh, it’s time to repeat it [the trailer] a thousand times until the series is released.”
@kelloggsflakes2286: “This soundtrack is exactly the type I listened to while reading the trilogy.”
What is 3 Body Problem about? Humanity has made contact with aliens on the planet Trisolaris. But then the alien life form wants to invade the blue planet to leave their own inhospitable planet behind – a conflict arises.
When does 3 Body Problem start: From March 21, 2024, the series will be available on Netflix and will consist of a total of 8 episodes.

Fortnite presented not only the upcoming skins for the Battle Pass with its new trailer for Chapter 5 Season 2, but also powerful abilities that you will be able to use from the gods of antiquity. You can find all the information from the trailer here.
What skins can I expect? In line with the Server Down, the trailer gives you a brief overview of what skins will await you in the Battle Pass. Additionally, new powers are demonstrated that you will be able to use from the gods. The following skins are known:
Fortnite Battle Royale Chapter 5 Season 2: Myths & Mortals showcases battles with gods
Divine powers and major changes to the map
What else happens in the trailer? The trailer first gives a brief insight into the new setting of the season. Many familiar skins from Fortnite cross the Styx, a river of the underworld, but then Aphrodite appears and flies with her wings up to ancient temples where her divine colleagues are waiting for her.
Various skins from the Battle Pass are then shown in action, demonstrating their powers. Zeus hurls fierce lightning bolts, while Hades can collect three souls from the Styx and carry them as projectiles over his shoulders. He also swings a special chain around him, which can draw opponents closer.
A collaboration cannot be missed, so the Battle Pass also includes the avatar Korra, who proves her strength in combat as a water bender.
In addition, various shots of the new locations from Season 2 are highlighted, including divine temples, ruins, and even Hades’ underworld.
When does Season 2 in Chapter 5 start? We cannot say exactly. So far, many fans of Fortnite are waiting for the upcoming update, but Epic Games has not yet released anything. We will keep you updated and estimate that the new season will start around noon, between 12 and 2 PM.

In 2003, student Mike Rowe created an online presence to advertise his side job as a web designer. The address of his website was MikeRoweSoft.com. This did not please the Windows developer Microsoft at all.
Large corporations do not take lightly the defense of their name rights against use by other companies and individuals. This experience was also faced by Canadian student Mike Rowe over 20 years ago.
Due to the name of his website MikeRoweSoft.com, the company founded by Bill Gates, Microsoft, felt compelled to respond. The student did not want to give up without a fight and reached out to the public to move Microsoft to relent.

Microsoft demanded the student hand over his website
What kind of website was it? Over 20 years ago, the Canadian student Mike Rowe had the idea of creating his own website. The then 17-year-old had a part-time job as a web designer and wanted to advertise it online.
In reference to the software manufacturer Microsoft, he chose the address MikeRoweSoft.com, as his first and last name, when pronounced together, sounded like the first two syllables in the name of the Windows developer.
How did Microsoft react? It took several months for the hardware and software manufacturer to contact Mike. A letter from Microsoft’s lawyers suggested that he hand over the address of his online presence to the Windows developer.
The student did not want to simply hand over the address to the corporation and demanded compensation. The lawyers offered him at that time about 7 euros for the handover. This corresponded to the original costs that Mike had paid for the registration of the address.
Was the offer fair? No, from the student’s perspective, Microsoft’s reaction was anything but fair. Disappointed with the small amount, he decided to offer them MikeRoweSoft.com for a settlement of almost 7,000 euros (via web.archive.org).
How did the dispute end? In the meantime, Mike turned to the public. By spreading his story through the press, the student received a lot of attention. Microsoft was now willing to relent and to make the compensation larger (via web.archive.org).
Besides covering the full costs for a new website, the Windows manufacturer also enabled him to participate in various internal programs. Additionally, Mike received an Xbox console with several games.
Anyone who types the address MikeRoweSoft.com into their internet browser today is automatically redirected to microsoft.com.
Mike Rowe at that time demanded about 7,000 euros from the Windows corporation for the handover of his internet address. Significantly more has now been paid by a bidder on eBay for a very special special edition of the first Xbox from Microsoft, even though it is defective: A broken Xbox from 2005 is so special and unique, it was recently sold for over 9,000 euros

The PS5 is now over 3 years old. But is it still worth buying a PS5 in 2024? MeinMMO discusses the pros and cons of the Sony console and explains what you should consider if you’re thinking about making a purchase.
The PS5 was released on November 12, 2020, and since then numerous versions and new editions of the PS5 have been released. But is it even worth buying a PS5 almost 4 years after its release?
MeinMMO looks at the pros and cons of the PS5 and explains the reasons for or against buying a PS5.
Accessible and easier entry: Basically, a PS5 offers a relatively easy entry into gaming. Games start immediately, the console handles many settings by itself, and you only have to worry about playing. The hurdle is significantly higher with a PC.
DualSense controller: The PS5 comes with the new and improved DualSense controller, which features several exciting options like haptic feedback and special triggers. There is also the excellent DualSense Edge for the PS5 with additional paddles on the back.
Upgrade from PS4 to PS5: Another reason why a PS5 might be worth it is if you’re still using a PS4 but want to play new games. The new Banishers, for example, is not coming to PS4:

What speaks against a PS5 in 2024?
PS5 Pro: Not yet announced, but the PS5 Pro is expected to come at some point. Nobody knows when it will arrive, but it should be kept in mind when considering buying a PS5 now. Sony has already stated that the PS5 is reaching its end cycle. A new console is therefore more than likely.
Price and follow-up costs: The PS5, at 549 or 449 euros (Digital), is not exactly cheap. Additionally, you need to keep in mind that you will have to pay for PS Plus (multiplayer) and for games as well. Full-price titles usually cost between 70 and 80 euros. And the discounts in the PS Store are generally worse than promotions on Steam or in the Epic Game Store.
Lack of exclusive games: The PS5 had a limited number of exclusive games at launch, which disappointed many players. Although more exclusive titles have been released in recent years, the PS5 library is still not very extensive, despite some excellent exclusive titles.
Sony has also started releasing exclusive titles for PC as well. With enough patience, you won’t need to buy a PS5, but can simply wait for a PC release. Sony has already stated how long PS5 games will remain exclusive before they appear on other platforms.
Noise: Players often criticize that their PS5 is too loud. However, it depends on which model you “get.” Depending on the model, Sony uses a different fan. It’s a matter of luck whether you get a loud or quiet model. This doesn’t necessarily have to be a negative point, but it can annoy some players.
Alternatives to the PS5: Xbox Series X|S or Gaming PC
The Xbox Series X: The Xbox offers you almost identical hardware compared to the PS5: The SSD of the PS5 is slightly faster, but the chip of the Xbox runs at a slightly higher clock speed. However, both systems use the same combination chip (APU) from AMD. The Xbox Series S as an alternative has a slower chip installed.
On both platforms, you can play almost the same titles. Both platforms have a few exclusive titles (Halo on Xbox or Spider-Man on PS5) in their lineup.
Gaming PC: On first glance, the gaming PC is less user-friendly than a game console, but it offers you almost endless freedom regarding settings and possibilities. Additionally, you can upgrade or modify a gaming PC at any time, provided you have the budget. This is also the biggest drawback of a gaming PC: the entry price is significantly higher than that of an Xbox or a PS5.
Basically, the PS5 in 2024 is a much more accessible and attractive offer than at launch when scalpers bought every available console. However, scalpers are now stuck with the PS5 consoles. Apart from that, the PS5 offers you a vast library of games with many strong titles.
Nevertheless, there are also reasons against a PS5. Especially with exclusive titles, the PS has by no means been as strong as it once was, as more and more titles are also being released for PC. A possible PS5 Pro could also argue against the purchase.
What speaks for or against a PS5? In the end, it also depends on what you expect or want:
If you are looking for a straightforward and accessible gaming experience, then the PS5 is still a very good console.
However, if you want to get the most out of your games, then a gaming PC could be the better long-term choice, as it offers more options.
If you have a tight budget, the PS5 is also the better choice than a gaming PC, as you can easily bridge the next few years with the PS5.
If budget is not a concern for you, then you could also get a powerful gaming PC with a great OLED monitor.
Some specific titles are still exclusively reserved for the PS5, but those could also be released for PC in the future. This is not certain but quite likely.
More on gaming: Many players are considering whether to buy a gaming PC or a console. But what do PS5 and Xbox do better than a proper gaming PC? MeinMMO presents the advantages of consoles: 6 things where PS5 and Xbox are simply better than a gaming PC

What can be seen is a stone hand that is glowing and wrapped in chains. The chain holds a chest that is locked. Another model shows the chest in an open state. It is possible that the chest is the box of Pandora, which also appears in mythology.

Last Epoch has been playable in version 1.0 on Steam for a few weeks now and has attracted hundreds of thousands of players. However, many of them have now reached the endgame and say: There’s really no goal there at all. Diablo 4 has had to deal with the same accusations.
This is the endgame in Last Epoch:
You can play in Last Epoch up to level 100. However, the endgame already begins after the campaign, around level 50.
Besides Monoliths, there is also the endless arena with a leaderboard, on which our tier list for Last Epoch is based, as well as dungeons that you need for specific goals.
Why is there a lack of a goal?On Reddit players are currently discussing why exactly one should farm loot. There is no real goal to pursue by getting better and better. There are really only two reasons for better gear:
A higher rank in the endless arena
More corruption in the Monoliths
For many players, the Monoliths are just about finding a point where they can farm comfortably. After that, it stagnates a bit, the build is exhausted, and there are not many improvements left.
The arena has an even bigger weakness: it takes too long. To even make it onto the leaderboards, you have to survive hundreds of waves, each of which takes forever – mainly because individual enemies stand around somewhere, and you have to find them first.
To appear on the best lists, where only the top 50 players are displayed, you not only need to be extraordinarily good but also invest many hours. It wouldn’t be worth it.

Last Epoch: The ARPG Showcases Classes, Battles, and Challenges in the Launch Trailer
Diablo 4 has removed that, and many were happy with it
What is criticized in Last Epoch about the arena also annoys at least a small group of players in Diablo 4. The new leaderboards of Diablo 4 are merely a challenge for a few, while the majority of players are never at the top anywhere.
There is also criticism regarding the dungeons of Last Epoch in another thread on Reddit. Dungeons have the problem that random walls can block paths here. This leads to players often having to “backtrack” and search for paths for a long time.
Diablo 4 had the exact same problems at launch and shortly after. Here there was a quick complaint: Diablo 4 has no endgame at all, because there’s no content that you can actually farm.
However, the community still believes in many respects that the endgame is more successful than in Diablo 4, mainly due to an important topic: loot. Many find it simply better in Last Epoch. There are two reasons for this:
Loot filters that hide useless loot before picking it up
At the same time, however, some believe that crafting is a problem. Because one only hopes for the same items to squeeze out a few better stats since everything else can be determined by oneself. This previously led to the feeling of: What’s the point of all this?
Whether the endgame in Last Epoch and Diablo 4 is really such a big problem is up for debate. A player says, for example: For him, it’s fun enough just to smash monsters. That is fun, and if it shouldn’t be the case anymore, he will just take a break. Even the creators of Diablo have already advised this: Blizzard wants you to stop playing Diablo 4 when you’ve had enough: ‘Play something else – we do too’

With Season 2 Reloaded, a new weapon came to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, with which you can defeat the most annoying enemies, because: The “Soulrender” has a strong attack against riot shields.
What kind of weapon is this? The “Soulrender” is a melee weapon that allows you to slash your opponents. Especially against riot shields, the knife is supposed to be quite strong, as its powerful attack ensures that the shield no longer offers any protection.
How do I unlock the weapon? You will obtain the Soulrender in Sector B21 of the Battle Pass. You do not need to purchase it. The sector consists of five fields, with five rewards. You unlock the individual rewards by completing tasks. Once you have completed all tasks in the sector, you will receive the knife.
You unlock the Soulrender in Sector B21 of the Battle Pass.
The following rewards and tasks are included in the sector:
JAK Burnout Upgrade: Achieve 5 operator or special zombie kills with throwing knives
Emblem “Bone Dome”: Achieve 10 operator or special zombie melee kills
Double XP Token: Achieve 15 operator or special zombie kills with frag grenades or Semtex
Camouflage “Grave Robber”: Achieve 5 operator or special zombie kills by striking with the rifle stock
Weapon “Soulrender”: Earn all sector rewards + Achieve 10 operator or special zombie melee kills while crouched

“Soulrender” counters riot shields – Developers say: That’s how it has to be
Why is the weapon suitable against riot shields? Basically, players with riot shields are the most annoying opponents, because: Very little can get through the shield.
This means specifically that you either have to hit the enemy’s feet under the riot shield with a firearm, gain a height advantage, get behind them, or throw grenades and/or thermite to win a fight against the shield bearers.
However, the strong attack of the Soulrender rips the shield from the enemy in an animation and takes him out. You perform the attack by holding down your left mouse button briefly and “charging” the strike.
On X (formerly Twitter), the “Call of Duty” news account “DETONATED” posted a clip of the new melee weapon on March 7, stating: “The melee weapon ‘Soulrender’ goes THROUGH riot shields! Probably a bug, the ‘Soulrender’ can take out pesky riot shields! – it will be 100% fixed soon.”
In response, the developers said: “This is not a bug! The heavy attack of the Soulrender is, similar to the JAK-Limb Cutter and the JAK Purifier, an intentional counter to riot shields.”

How is the new melee weapon being received? The new weapon seems to be well received. Many players appear to be looking forward to testing it against enemy players with riot shields. In the comments on a post on X by “CharlieIntel”, one user expresses happiness that the developers are introducing weapons that can counter other weapons.
Another user comments: “Thank goodness, these ‘turtles’ are at the end now.” Someone writes: “Surely we all agree that the riot shield [players] deserve this.” And one user comments with a laughing emote: “Imagine if you could use the sword and the shield at the same time – that would be funny.”
In one comment, a user notes that he ran at the riot shield bearer with the knife, and he thought he was hacking because the attack “went right through him.”
How the knife will perform and whether it can also be useful in Call of Duty: Warzone remains to be seen.
In Warzone, not only players with riot shields are annoying, but especially campers who barricade themselves in buildings and surprise you with their shotgun or sniper.
