As part of a subculture, manga, anime, and games are sometimes considered a small entity because of their strong economic and cultural connections, and this entity has different nicknames in different cultural contexts. For example, in Chinese-speaking regions and East Asia, they are collectively referred to as ACG/ACGN, and in Japan, they are referred to as MAG.
Therefore, you can fully assume that the relationship between the three is very close. Since both anime and games are dynamic, you may sometimes find elements of certain games in some anime - and vice versa.
As a video game that has been popular worldwide in recent years, Genshin Impact’s cartoony art style, rich game plot, and rich and diverse game elements may make you think of this game through similar elements when watching some anime after playing Genshin Impact.
Based on this, we will select 7 of these animes to introduce to you.
As a classic series in the anime industry, the Fate series originated from a famous visual novel game and has spawned many works, including games, anime, and novels. Like Genshin Impact, Fate Grand Order, the Fate game, also uses a gacha system for randomly obtaining characters. However, besides this game, watching the original animation may bring you more unexpected gains.
Since there are so many Fate series, you may not know choose which one as start, but according to fans and some critics, it is recommended to choose Fate/Stay Night as the starting point and then watch more subsequent animations in the order of release.
If you are used to obtaining characters with Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals in Genshin Impact because of their unique charm, the story characters shown in Fate/Stay Night may make you have a similar urge when playing Fate Grand Order.
Of all the anime that have similarities with Genshin Impact, KonoSuba should be the most comedic one. By perfectly outputting many ironic different world metaphors and putting the characters into embarrassing and funny situations, KonoSuba can definitely make you laugh.
The protagonist Kazuma is a clown who always likes to team up with more problematic allies, and the result is that they will jointly present you with a silly adventure that is even more hilarious than the funniest plot of Genshin Impact.
As a game based on Teyvat for you to explore, most popular isekai-themed anime may have similarities with Genshin Impact. In isekai-themed anime, the characters may be transported to another world by accident, or they may be born in another world like your Genshin Impact character, such as Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon?
Also known as DanMachi, this anime has a typical RPG style. The story revolves around a boy with big dreams who gets some unexpected help from a goddess, who also accompanies him to explore the dungeon to help him realize his dream. In a way, this is very similar to the actions of Genshin Impact character teammates who help you win the battle, right?
The biggest similarity between Genshin Impact and One Piece is that they both convey a great and fun spirit of adventure by letting the protagonists travel in their own worlds. Although the overly long episodes may make you feel that it is difficult to stick to watching One Piece, this is necessary to fully show the vast world in it, just like you can only fully explore Teyvat after investing a lot of time.
In terms of specific plots, the story of One Piece revolves around Straw Hat Pirates, each of whom has his own unique personality. They are brought together by a solid bond of friendship, and Captain Luffy regards other members as precious family members and always does everything he can to protect them no matter what difficulties he encounters, just like you do when you encounter danger in Genshin Impact.
When you see the strange creatures in Jujutsu Kaisen, you will definitely think of the mythical creatures and terrible bosses in Genshin Impact, and both your Genshin Impact character and the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen need to fight these creatures.
As an anime that incorporates fantasy combat elements, the characters in Jujutsu Kaisen are unique in their talents and personalities, which has led to the animation’s high popularity. Although Jujutsu Kaisen is slightly darker than the world view and plot presented in Genshin Impact, it is still worth watching.
When your Genshin Impact character completes the main quest, you always need to cooperate with the corresponding character according to the main storyline to defeat your common enemy and move forward. These enemies may be rebellious archons, evil gangs, or monsters that threaten the lives of residents in the area. The main plot of InuYasha is very similar to this combat mechanism.
After the heroine Kagome fell into a magic well, she found herself back in feudal Japan, but unusually, there were many non-human creatures living here besides humans. After meeting InuYasha, Kagome and he needed to team up with those righteous partners to defeat the evil behind-the-scenes boss Naraku.
Unlike other anime, the relevance of Genshin Impact and Bleach is mainly reflected in the various weapons. Genshin Impact uses a unique lottery system, allowing you to obtain various combat weapons randomly, and these weapons are of different sizes, colors, abilities, and designs. Bleach also shows you many unique weapons belonging to different characters.
The weapons of Bleach characters, including Soul Reaper, Hollow, or Quincy, are called Zanpakutō. Each knife has a unique soul that can communicate with the user during training or battle.
After the introduction, I believe you must be more interested in these works, so why not choose one to watch now, maybe you can find more similarities between it and Genshin Impact!
What is the most classic MMORPG in the world? That’s right, it’s World of Warcraft. WOW has become the best MMORPG among all gamers, with its exquisite plot, rich races and gameplay, and a very vast map. But now there is a game that challenges it. It is The Quinfall developed by Vawraek Technology.
The Quinfall is said to have the largest map area in the game. The official data is 2016 square kilometers. Players may not have any idea about this, so you can compare it with other games:
In other words, the map area of The Quinfall alone is equivalent to 10 Azeroth continents! Players must run their legs off in this game.
However, the company that made this game is neither Ubisoft nor EA, which are good at making open world canned games, nor Microsoft or Sony, but an unknown Vawraek Technology. Have you heard of it? Maybe not, because this company comes from romantic Turkey.
Players seem to have never heard of any famous game companies in Turkey, and this is actually true. Turkey is indeed well-known in the game industry, and to some extent, this place can be called a “game desert.” However, just like an oasis in the desert. Turkey has a long history and strong strength, and this country must have the strength to create a game.
In fact, The Quinfall is not the first work of Vawraek Technology. They were developing a game called Kayra Online in 2019, but this game was terminated in 2021, and they started to develop The Quinfall almost immediately.
Their development speed is amazing. In the third year of development, they announced that they would sell it on Steam. However, for various reasons, it has now been postponed to January 25, 2025.
Maybe people who know a little about the game feel that Vawraek Technology seems a bit unreliable. They think The Quinfall may be another The Day Before. However, this time, Vawraek Technology seems to be doing something real for the players.
Despite the one-year delay, it is not that nothing has been done. The Quinfall not only released a trailer but also conducted alpha testing, extensions and beta testing. And they finally decided to release the first-hand experience in January 2025. This sounds a lot more reliable, and they finally did not run away.
Although the game has not yet been launched, players can see what kind of game it is from the videos and early tests it released.
According to the official description, this game not only has a super large map, but players can also explore in five areas with different climates.
Quinfall is very bold in the design of the economic system. Players can not only create caravans but also rob other players’ caravans. At the same time, players can also put their own goods on the shelves in the store, and even open their own stores. Quinfall has designed a very real economic system for players, so that you can also earn Gold very realistically in the game.
In terms of story, players will explore the influence of many gods such as Pelyonas, Greis and Kreas, the dragon gods, on the universe, uncover the deep background stories of dozens of main characters, or observe the daily life of other characters in the kingdom, and find the secret of the cursed crown that changed the fate of Quinfall. Just from the story framework, the text volume of this game will not be too small.
There are also ten professions in the game, each of which is mainly divided by the weapons used, and each profession has two sub-professions. If players are tired of fighting monsters, they can also earn some Quinfall Gold Coins for themselves through fishing, breeding, hunting, etc.
In terms of combat, the scenes where players can fight are not limited to land, but can even fight in the sky and on the sea. What’s more interesting is the world boss crusade and the huge online dungeon for hundreds of players.
Not all players have confidence in it, because the art materials in its previous demonstration are a bit cheap and the actions seem to lack some polish. The most important thing is that Quinfall has such a large map. If the content cannot be filled well, the game will become very empty and boring.
However, the specific content will have to wait until it is actually launched to see its true level. The good news is that it is a free MMORPG, and players at least don’t have to worry about suffering the loss of The Day Before again. It will be officially launched soon, and interested players can try to be the first batch of players to enter the game.
For some time now, EA Sports FC and FIFA before it have led the football genre with few competitors. With the game regressing in some aspects and trying to squeeze as much money out of players every year, fans have expressed the desire to at least try UFL, a free-to-play football game with ‘fun’ at its core.
Since FIFA and FC are deeply rooted in the minds of fans around the world, it is difficult for UFL to occupy a place in the market. To gain market share, UFL must have a good gameplay experience that surpasses or catches up with FC 25 in many aspects. The question is, how does UFL compare to FC 25 at launch? Which football game is the better one? We will find out by analyzing several different key elements of the two games.
Gameplay is the real key. Since UFL is not a game that is released every year, but will be updated regularly, it needs to have a solid gameplay foundation. We saw eFootball struggle with this concept a few years ago, so it’s not an easy task.
Like FC 25, UFL has strengths and weaknesses. The game is a little clunky, with players taking some time to control the ball and turn, and shooting animations not always natural, but there’s a consistency and balance to the game that EA Sports FC can’t match.
The game is also very open, with long balls and aerial shots always an option as long as you have time in the midfield. Whether this is a strength of the offense or a weakness of the defensive design, time will tell, but the fun of UFL is undeniable. If the developers can improve the overall physics, the game will be much better.
Opinions on UFL will also change over time. Gameplay in FIFA and FC games always evolves over time as patches change things and the community learns what’s too strong. The same will happen with UFL over time, and if the gameplay is going to remain impressive, it will depend a lot on how the developers manage it over the long term.
Thanks to UFL, FC 25’s gameplay is the worst ever. While there have always been some overpowered mechanics, like this year’s finesse shot playstyle+ and cut backs in FC 24, the consistency and reliability of moment-to-moment gameplay has never been worse.
Weird player interactions, misplaced passes, and goalkeeper errors pop up in nearly every game. Tackling from behind is overpowered, high-depth plays trigger automatic offside traps, and AI is downright stupid.
That last aspect is the most egregious, as players you don’t control are constantly out of position, both in attack and defense, making the game mode incredibly difficult to put together. Offensive players will run away from open goal opportunities, stay in offside positions, or ignore instructions related to their role.
While it’s hard to prove it, the constant stream of new features is overwhelming the game. Playstyles, roles, and FC IQ have all been added over the years, but gameplay has regressed. Something is wrong, and it’s up to EA Sports to fix it.
This is where UFL falls short. FC 25 was developed and distributed by a multi-billion dollar company with a history of nearly 30 years. UFL is a free-to-play game for the first time, so it’s no surprise that FC 25 looks better. However, the difference between the two is not as big as imagined.
Watching the entire pitch together, it’s hard to tell the difference between the two. Where UFL lags behind is in the overall presentation of match days, with less lively crowds, limited celebrations, and less fanfare at all times.
UFL also falls short of FIFA 25 in terms of player animations. While FIFA 25 is full of physics issues, players do move more smoothly and interact more seamlessly. For now, EA FC 25 wins in terms of graphics and presentation, but the competition is more intense than you might think.
It’s a bit unfair to analyze which game is better in terms of modes. EA Sports FC has had more time to design and launch new modes for players. However, more is not always better.
UFL is essentially the equivalent of Ultimate Team. You let players build their own team and then take that team into online competitions. There’s a weekend mode, similar to Champions in FC, and a ranked mode, similar to traditional ranking modes in shooters. Other than that, the game offers very few modes, although that’s by design.
FC 25 has career mode, Clubs, kick-off, online friendlies, and the various modes of Ultimate Team. Modes like Draft, Moments, and Squad Battles range from boring to abandoned, but there’s definitely a mode for everyone. UFL was designed with Ultimate Team competition in mind, so that’s where we should compare it. If they did branch out into other areas, we’d obviously like UFL to have a career mode, but the idea here is clearly to focus on online competitive play.
UFL is a free-to-play game, while EA FC 25 will cost $60 if you get the standard edition at launch. Also, UFL is designed to last a long time, far longer than the annual cycle of EA series.
EA Sports has started to increase the number of promo packs you can get at any one time like crazy. Often, you can find promotional packs worth hundreds of dollars in stores, but paying for them doesn’t guarantee you’ll get any players. You open the packs with the slim hope of getting something good, but you may not actually get it.
But with FC 25 Coins, players will be able to build their fantasy team with more flexibility, using this virtual currency to access not only rare cards but also exclusive content such as exclusive skills and match passes, injecting more personalization options into the game.
In contrast, UFL’s monetization is more direct. You can get packs of skins by earning CP, which can improve the attributes of the players in your team. In addition, you can use any CP to get any player in the game. Each player has a specific CP price, so as long as you have enough coins, you can spend any currency on them.
While both games have pay-to-win elements, and the money you spend is directly related to the quality of your team, FC 25 is by far the worst culprit. You can clearly know which players your hard-earned money is spent on, which makes UFL far ahead in terms of monetization, and after all, it is a free game.
UFL has two advantages, price and time, as it is a service game rather than an annual paid version. Therefore, the developers can work hard to ensure that it continues to improve over time without players having to pay $60 for those improvements. In terms of presentation and mode, FC 25 is ahead, but it has had nearly 30 years to hone its craft.
But more importantly, UFL puts the fun and consistency of the game first. Since FC 25 is the worst in the series in a long time in terms of gameplay, now is the best time to improve its gameplay as soon as possible to take advantage of its advantages.
The above is a comparison of the relevant content of FC 25 and UFL. Which game do you prefer in your mind? If you are affected by the lack of certain props in the game, you can follow IGGM Discord giveaway channel, where we will regularly release free props information.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 includes many classic modes and features, as well as some exciting fresh additions. However, despite the game’s excellent gaming experience, players may sometimes encounter some technical issues.
One common issue is Hueneme Negev error, which is usually related to your internet connection and prevents players from accessing the game properly. Imagine if you were practicing cool finishing moves to kill your opponents in Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies, but how frustrating it would be to frequently encounter Hueneme Negev error. So, to avoid this problem, check out this guide and we will provide you with some solutions.
First, in order to solve “Networking Failed to Start” error in Black Ops 6, players need to take corresponding measures based on the specific connection type and platform used. Since a variety of factors can cause this problem, including but not limited to network configuration, hardware compatibility, or software settings, it is recommended that players who encounter such problems try the following methods.
When encountering game connection problems, the best thing to do is to check the status of the game server before confirming whether it is really a problem on your side.
Server downtime is common during periods when the development team is preparing to release new content or major updates. This is done to ensure that the new version can be deployed smoothly and provides the best gaming experience for all players.
In addition, during these critical periods, there is a possibility that the server load will be too heavy because of the large number of players trying to access game resources which will affect your normal login process.
Restarting your modem or router can refresh the device, help resolve minor connection interruptions, and ensure that network services are running smoothly. This is especially important if you are playing over a Wi-Fi connection, as Wi-Fi connections are more prone to instability than wired connections. To restart these devices, simply turn off your modem or router, wait at least 10 seconds, and then turn it back on.
If you are still experiencing connection problems after following the steps above, it is recommended that you contact your Internet Service Provider. They have a professional technical team that can help you reset the settings of your modem or router and confirm that these devices are working properly.
Another effective way to solve connection problems is to restart your console or check that its system version is up to date. Any issues with the console or an unstable connection to the Internet can significantly affect your gaming experience. Keeping your console in top working order and ensuring all software is up to date can reduce network outages because of outdated or faulty connections.
In addition, if your console is connected to the Internet through a shared Wi-Fi network, you may experience a decrease in connection stability. This is because shared networks often need to support multiple devices to access the Internet, which increases the possibility of network congestion.
As a common wireless Internet access method, although Wi-Fi provides convenience, its stability is often affected when the network is congested or multiple devices are used at the same time. To improve this situation, users can consider using an Ethernet connection, which provides a more stable and higher priority network experience.
If you are already in an Ethernet environment and still encounter problems, you can try to temporarily switch back to Wi-Fi to rule out whether it is a problem with the wired connection itself.
In addition, you can also consider switching to a different network to determine whether the problem is with your primary network. If conditions permit, using the hotspot function of a mobile device is also a quick way to test.

If the above methods don’t work, another method you can try is to use a VPN service to change your IP address and bypass possible regional restrictions or connection issues. You can keep VPN on throughout the game, or you can choose to disable VPN after successfully logging in to reduce unnecessary delays.
To achieve this, you first need to download a VPN service. When choosing a VPN server, it is best to choose a server that differs from your usual connection route to avoid potential restrictions or interference. However, to avoid delays caused by connecting to a server that is too far away, it is recommended to choose a server that is closer to your location.
Teredo Protocol on Windows PC may cause connection issues, which affects your ability to access games. You can disable Teredo by following these steps: First, boot Windows and log in to your profile. Then press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open Command Prompt with administrator privileges.
And in Command Prompt window, enter the following command - netsh interface teredo set state disabled - and then press Enter. Once executed, enter the command - netsh interface teredo show state - to see the type status displayed as disabled.
If you want to restore the default settings later, just open the command prompt again with administrator privileges, type netsh interface teredo set state default and press Enter.
By following the above steps, most players should be able to resolve “Networking Failed to Start” error encountered in COD BO6.
Last week, the much-anticipated Path of Exile 2 Early Access was finally released. In this brand new sequel, the new game content is certainly enough to attract players, but what makes players most excited is the addition of multiplayer and couch co-op!
The addition of this feature means that you can explore Wraeclast together with your friends or work together to defeat a very powerful boss. Although POE 2 offers a single-player exploration game mode, the pleasure generated by gathering friends and striving for a goal is far from being comparable to single-player exploration.
However, it should be noted that there are some game elements in multiplayer that differ from single-player games, such as the distribution of loot at the end of the battle and the situation of falling into battle. If you have never been exposed to couch co-op or multiplayer games, this guide will give you an introduction to all the processes in POE 2 so that you can call friends to explore at any time.
Multiplayer games, as the name suggests, means that you can explore the content in the game with other players besides yourself. So first, you need to make some friends. This does not mean your real-life friends, but game friends. You can enter Social Screen by holding down your J key or clicking the three-line button in the lower right corner of the screen.
At the bottom of this interface, you will see a Friend Invite box where you can enter the name of other players’ characters. After entering your friend’s name correctly here, press Enter, and he/she will become your game friend.
When this friend logs in to the game online, you will receive a message reminder. Then you can right-click the friend’s avatar on the friend list and select Invite to Party tab at the top of the list that appears to form your party.
Once the player joins your party, his/her avatar will appear on the left side of your screen. When you click the spiral below the avatar, you will be teleported to the location where your friend is locked.
It is important to note that all the loot you get during the exploration process is shared, not double loot. For example, when some POE2 Currency and loot drops on the ground after the enemy dies, there will be a brief window during which neither of you can pick it up, so there is no possibility of it being stolen.
At this time, you can discuss the ownership of specific loot in the party, because some gear is only useful for certain classes. Or you can trade loot with your teammates by right-clicking their avatar and selecting Trade tab. If it is initiated by the other party, you can just click Accept.
In addition, in multiplayer games, the health of the enemies and bosses on your face will be a little higher, but don’t worry too much. They are actually easier to defeat because they need to withstand two attacks each time. Along the way, you’ll also encounter some elite enemies that have names, which means they’ll be harder to defeat and worth your time to learn combat strategies.
Most importantly, in multiplayer, you can only access areas that you’ve unlocked. For example, if your teammate unlocks an area you’re not currently in during an operation, you won’t be able to reach the designated location via the spiral under your avatar. You must unlock that area before you can join it.

The most annoying and camaraderie-testing part of multiplayer is reviving someone when they die during exploration, so it’s important to understand how the revive system works in POE 2.
When your teammate is killed by an enemy, you need to stand in the golden AOE around their body and click and hold Revive button that appears above the body. Remember, you need to hold it down until they revive. If you are attacked by an enemy during the process, the process will also be interrupted, so try to stand in a safe area and use your time wisely.
Unlike forming a team in multiplayer games, Couch Co-op requires you to have two controllers and two characters. This means that you can explore POE 2 with your friends face to face without any network lag.
You’ll need to select Settings tab in the top-left corner of the character selection menu interface, then select Input at the top to switch to Controller. If no controller input is detected at this stage, this tab cannot be clicked, so please check your controller.
Once connected, you can click Controller #1 button and bind it to your first controller. Scroll down to Controller #2 and select Controller Device to bind the second controller. At this time, a pop-up window that says “Couch Coop Mode Enabled” will appear on the screen.
This means that you can now start exploring POE 2 with your friends with the help of this new feature. Remember to save this setting, and after you exit the menu interface, you can see your character and your friend’s character standing side by side in front of you.
There is a very important detail that you need to remember. You will not only share a screen during the exploration process but also share all POE2 Currency you have cultivated, which ensures absolute fairness!
The above is the specific process and matters that need to be paid attention to for multiplayer games and Couch Co-op that you can experience in POE 2. I hope that with the help of this new feature, you can experience unprecedented exploration fun and the rapid warming of friendship. I wish you a happy game!
Thunderstruck is a very popular promotion in EA FC 25, which provides players with a way to earn additional upgrades by collecting Live cards. This means that over time, players can make their cards more powerful by participating in matches or completing missions.
Although these cards are initially ranked based on their ability, they still have the potential to become better over time. However, it is important to note that while these cards can be further upgraded. It does not completely change their role or importance in the game. Below is a guide to eight of the best players.
As a star player for Real Madrid, Valverde has performed very well, and his price is accordingly high. He has been regarded as one of the best midfielders in recent years, and this Thunderstruck version of him is undoubtedly one of the best pre-Team of the Year cards.
Real Madrid links and Valverde’s flexibility to move from CM to CDM or RM make him a must-have card. If you can afford his price and want to be competitive in the higher online divisions, this card is definitely worth the investment.
Kevin De Bruyne’s Thunderstruck card is one of the top cards in FC 25. Not only does this card have excellent technical attributes, it also comes with a powerful play style, Incisive Pass Plus, which allows him to deliver a lethal pass to his teammates with great accuracy. This passing ability is extremely valuable for any player looking to build a smooth offensive system.
However, it is worth noting that De Bruyne’s speed in the game is not his strong point. Compared to many other top midfielders, he is slightly lacking in acceleration and agility. In addition, the price of this card is relatively high, which may be a challenge for players with limited FUT 25 Coins.
Viktor Gyokeres is widely regarded as one of the best strikers, and with his amazing speed and excellent physicality, he is one of the most hard players to defend in FC 25. His 88 shooting rating adds to the brilliance of this card.
Although Viktor Gyokeres is relatively cheap, it is important to note that because of the small number of Swedish players, you will find it difficult to play many Liga Portugal players alongside Viktor Gyokeres, which increases the difficulty of finding suitable teammates to support your striker.
Jules Kounde’s base card is one of the best choices for the right back position in FIFA 25 early on. And compared to Gyokeres, Kounde’s link ability is much stronger, as French player has some of the richest quality teammates to choose from.
Jockey is a great PlayStyle Plus for a right-back, as it allows you to more effectively control the attacking players advancing along the wing while maintaining the ability to change direction at any time. This flexibility makes Jockey an ideal choice for players who want to be solid in defense and actively participate in the front court activities in offense.
Nicolo Barella’s Thunderstruck card surpasses other similar options in this guide with its excellent accessibility, value for money, and overall quality. Although Barella’s various attributes are not particularly outstanding in terms of statistics, he has consistently performed well in the game with excellent on-field movement and superb dribbling skills.
Despite his relatively small stature, this does not make Barella look inferior to his opponents. He has an extremely strong presence in the midfield area and can control the rhythm of the game through flexible position changes and precise passes.

William Saliba is one of the best defensive players in Ultimate Team. Saliba has the special skill Anticipate PlayStyle Plus, which makes him one of the best options in the position. Although he is expensive, if players are willing to invest enough FIFA 25 Coins to obtain this card, then you will not have to worry about your center back position in the coming months.
As play styles change and are updated, players with multiple play styles often have an impact on the power curve. However, during such transitions, a few players like Saliba have been able to adapt well and continue to perform at a high level. Therefore, for players who are looking for long-term stability and reliability, investing in Saliba is undoubtedly a wise choice.
This card has almost all the ideal characteristics that all attacking players dream of. First, Rashford’s link is very easy to activate, and players can flexibly use him in various game modes. In addition, he can also use Power Shot Plus.
Rashford’s speed, shooting and dribbling ability are all over 91 points, and these three key attributes make him almost omnipotent in the field. The only thing that may be considered a shortcoming is that his Weak Foot is not perfect, but this is just a minor flaw compared to his already very comprehensive ability.
Overall, for players who pursue extreme attacking power, although Marcus Rashford is expensive, the value he provides is definitely worth the investment.
In fact, Kylian Mbappe is already one of the top dribblers in the game, and in other aspects, he is almost the perfect attacker. He is extremely fast, and he also has excellent shooting skills, accurate passing ability and flexible dribbling style. These characteristics combine to make Mbappe a hard existence to defend.
Besides the excellent attributes mentioned above, Mbappe also has a special ability, his “auras” and “jam”. When French striker breaks through the defense at an amazing speed, there always seem to be some incredible situations, such as offensive opportunities that should have been intercepted or destroyed but fell to his feet for various reasons and eventually turned into scoring opportunities.
If you haven’t tried to use the enhanced version of Mbappe to experience this almost invincible feeling, then it is strongly recommended that you give it a try.
In summary, the above eight players have their own characteristics, and each player has its irreplaceable value. It is recommended to carefully choose investment players according to your own situation. I hope this guide can help everyone better understand and use Thunderstruck promotion in EA Sports FC 25 and enjoy the fun of the game!
If you like playing games with beautiful graphics like Elden Ring, then you may also be interested in animation. In fact, there are also many games that have been animated, such as Persona 4 and the recent Arcane League of Legends Season 2.
Although these animated works have mixed reviews, at least they were expected by game fans and animation fans before they were released. After all, most of the games that can be animated have a good background world view. The same is true for Elden Ring.
Do you remember how Elden Ring set off a wave of MMO games when it was just launched in 2022? This epic open-world dark fantasy RPG depicts a large-scale power struggle in Lands Between, allowing you to not only earn Elden Ring Runes in various thrilling battles but also read the entire in-depth game story through the plot.
The game developers of Elden Ring have not yet expressed their intention to make an Elden Ring animation, but you will find fans making related animation works on social apps and video sites, and the quality and response of the trailers are very good. So let us introduce this fan animation to you.
According to the fan animation trailer, the final product will be five minutes long, and more effort will be put into post-effects and overall production than the trailer. Although the game world and story settings of Elden Ring are too large to be presented in five minutes, it is enough to portray the core content represented by Queen Marika or Mohgwyn Palace settings.
In addition, the producer Steins Alter also said that he will make more detailed fine-tuning of various aspects of the animation production later. Including adjustments to lighting tones and realistic surface reflections, as well as the adoption of an artistic style suitable for the game world. The fan animation trailer currently includes 4 versions in English, Japanese, French and Portuguese, and the final work is expected to be released in the summer of 2025.
Sometimes the quality of an animation is closely related to the attitude of the creator. Although the popularity of a five-minute fan work cannot be compared with that of a full official series, Steins Alter still made a serious comment on the hasty production of anime in the trailer.
For example, Steins Alter mentioned that the second season of Blue Lock was not perfect because of the change of directors, tight production time, and limited animation resources, so it is normal for the evaluation of the entire animation series to drop.
Although fan animations do not have the obstacles such as limited production time, they may have to face a greater concern - copyright issues. At least recently, Berserk fan animation was canceled because of this issue, and you must hope that Elden Ring fan animation will not encounter similar problems.
If you watch the video released by Steins Alter on March 8, 2024 to announce the production of Elden Ring fan animation, you will find that he hopes to create works with high quality and rich emotions like the best animation studios.

Whether this ideal is feasible remains to be seen, because no matter how popular the final five-minute animation and thirty-six-second trailer are, they can only represent the success of Elden Ring fan animation alone. Reaching similar heights as the well-known animation studios is a distant and lofty goal.
As a MMORPG with a large open world and a complex storyline, Elden Ring gives you many paths to choose in the game. Therefore, from the perspective of an official animation adaptation, it is difficult to guarantee that all the storylines of Elden Ring can be fully presented.
However, a full-length Elden Ring animation series can actually focus on a cinematic retelling of one of the key questlines, such as Ranni the Witch. Her story is fascinating and presents an interesting Elden Ring journey, as Ranni’s orbit also includes wonderful characters such as Blaidd the half-wolf, Preceptor Seluvis, and War Counselor Iji.
However, Ranni’s story is just one of several stories that could benefit from an adaptation, and the backstories of Millicent, Fia, and Alexander the Iron Fist are equally fascinating. But if the game’s official intention is to make a full Elden Ring animation, there is actually a clearer and more explicit route that can be taken, which is to adapt Road To The Erdtree manga directly.
As an official manga, Elden Ring: Road To The Erdtree presents the experience of most players in the game in a comedic form. If you have seen it, you may have a lot of resonance. The focus of the entire comic story is Aseo, a funny but unfortunate Tarnished. The series is drawn by cartoonist Nikiichi Tobita. While perfectly reproducing the game world, it incorporates special humor and is completely worthy of being adapted into a full Elden Ring animation.
Of course, whether the official game animation will be released in the future, you can’t deny the efforts made by Steins Alter as a fan of the game. After all, making animation is not a simple task. Instead of speculating on the official’s thoughts, it is better to look forward to and support this Elden Ring fan anime.
As Grinding Gear Games’ much-anticipated sequel, Path of Exile 2 not only inherits the dark style and complex system of the previous game, but also redesigns many core mechanisms.
Among them, the innovation of Passive Skill Tree is undoubtedly one of the focuses of players’ attention. We will explain to you how Path of Exile 2 passive skill tree works so that you can master this complex system.
Many RPGs attract players through fascinating storylines, satisfying combat, and even the temptation of shiny items. Although PoE 2 has these advantages, its core is your power.
It feels good to slap someone in the face with Mace, but it’s even better to slap someone in the face with Mace and unlock several passive skill tree nodes at the same time. These buffs will amplify the most basic actions.
We have prepared builds for all PoE 2 classes, including Warrior, Sorceress, and even Monk. Because PoE 2 passive skill tree is so massive, knowing where you are headed in this RPG is more important than in most games. As hard as it may seem at first, the web of PoE 2 nodes will be the foundation for your climb to the top.
PoE 2 is a branching set of unlockable character nodes, which can seem daunting at first, with over 1,500 individual passive buffs for characters to use, but PoE 2 goes some way to making this easier to understand. For example, while every PoE 2 class shares the same tree, they all start in a specific section, and all of the nodes in that section are useful to that class.
At the beginning of the game, you can’t go wrong when choosing which passive nodes to unlock. You can get a skill point to unlock a node every time you level up. In the early stage, these skill points will gradually improve your basic abilities.
Things like increased melee damage are always good choices early on. You can take a step forward in the passive skill tree by unlocking nodes, and think of it as a fixed track with branching options as you progress.
If you accidentally go in the wrong direction, or just don't like how your build is going, you have the opportunity to spend some POE2 Currency to reconfigure your passives.
It’s worth noting that although you start in a specific part of the passive skill tree based on your class, you can develop in any direction as long as you have enough points to unlock the nodes.
Three types of nodes constitute PoE 2 passive skill tree. They are Attribute Nodes, Notables, and Keystones. We’ll cover them in more depth next.
Attribute Nodes are an important part of any PoE 2 build, often simply adding some aspect of a character’s attributes. For example, if you spend a skill point to unlock the Skill Speed node, your attack and cast speed will increase by 3%.
These increases stack as you progress through the tree, and as we mentioned earlier, there are a lot of Attribute Nodes that will benefit your character in the beginning, so you’ll want to unlock these early on as much as possible.
You may come across an Attribute Node that gives you a choice of attributes that give a flat bonus, and you can choose the attribute you think will benefit your character. For example, you can choose between a +5 to Strength, Intelligence, or Dexterity, and if you’re playing a class that relies on melee damage, it might be worth choosing Strength increase.
Sometimes, you’ll reach a node that’s a little bigger than a normal Attribute Node, and that’s a Notable. Notables are nodes that are bigger boosts to one aspect of your character, but are usually more subtle. Notables can also tweak the functionality of some of your skills, which can be very useful for players who are starting to lean towards a certain playstyle.
Repeatable Explosives is an example of a Notable. This Notable gives your Grenades a 20% chance to explode a second time. Obviously, if you don’t use Grenades in your build, then Notable is useless. But for players who rely on high burst damage from throwable Explosives, this could be a game changer.
There are other Notables, such as Shrapnel, which gives your projectiles a 30% chance to penetrate enemies and a 30% chance to ricochet onto the terrain. If you have a PoE 2 Support Gem on your crossbow that increases projectiles, and then unlock Shrapnel Notable, you could potentially have a Shotgun-like weapon that can instantly shred hordes of enemies.
Keystones are the largest and most unique unlock nodes in PoE 2 passive skill tree. They offer powerful bonuses, but often come with specific drawbacks. Keystones are nodes that you must build around in order for them to work.
For example, Mind Over Matter Keystone shifts all damage you take into your mana pool before it affects your health, but it has the drawback that your mana regeneration rate is reduced by 50%. For it to work effectively, you have to seek out and unlock nodes that not only increase your mana pool but also increase regeneration rate. Otherwise, you’ll be left with nothing but health but no ability to use.
Some Keystones, like Pain Attunement, increase your chance of a critical strike when you’re low on health, but decrease it when you’re close to full health. While this isn’t necessarily a big adjustment to your build path, it may require you to change up your playstyle a bit. Keystones have a proportional risk and reward, but if you can get any of them to work in your build, they can be incredibly powerful.
Now that you know how PoE 2 passive skill tree works, it won’t be hard to build the most powerful character you can. See you in-game!
