Hi guys! Today I will recommend to you, anime that are coming out in the Spring Season of 2020 that I think you should check out. This list will contain 7 anime with no particular order. Now let’s begin:
1. Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Kan
It’s the third season of the popular anime. For those of you that haven’t heard of this anime before, the story follows Hachiman Hikigaya an apathetic high school student with narcissistic and semi-nihilistic tendencies. Hachiman believes that joyful youth is nothing but a farce, and everyone who says otherwise is just lying to themselves.
As a punishment for an essay that he wrote in class, mocking modern social relationships Hachiman’s teacher forces him to join the Volunteer Service Club. The club aims to extend a helping hand to any student who seeks their support in achieving their goals.
Hachiman is one of the most well-written anime characters I have seen and I wholeheartedly recommend you give this anime a chance.
2. Sword Art Online: Alicization – War of Underworld 2nd Season
I don’t believe that there is a single anime fan that has never heard of Sword Art Online before.
War of Underworld 2nd Season concludes the Alicization storyline and so far I believe the Alicization storyline is the best storyline of Sword Art Online since the original first season of the anime.
Sword Art Online is an anime that brings controversy since anime fans will either love it or hate it. I personally like this anime and I would recommend it to anyone that likes anime.
3. Shokugeki no Souma: Gou no Sara
You may know it as Food Wars! One thing is for certain Shokugeki no Souma is one of the most popular anime series right now and this spring its fifth season will be released.
For those of you that don’t know the plot, here is a short summary.
Souma Yukihira ever since he was a child he helped his father in his restaurant cooking amazing dishes. He dreams that one day he will own his family’s restaurant as its head chef.
Things don’t go as planned since his father decides to close the family restaurant in order to test his cooking abilities in restaurants around the world and he decides to send Souma to Tootsuki Culinary Academy, an elite cooking school where only 10 percent of the students graduate.
In this Academy, his cooking abilities will be tested since the Academy is famous for its “Shokugeki”, where students face each other in intense cooking fights.
4. Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle
This is the first anime in this list that isn’t a new season of an already known anime.
Here is a Synopsis:
A long time ago, there is an ancient legend revolving around two figures, the White Maiden of the Sky; represented by the White Cat, and the Black Prince of Darkness; represented by the Black Cat. At the same time, a war between the demons and the guardians of light took place, with the demons led by the Black King of Darkness attacking the lands in the sky. The Black Prince however, despite the wishes of the Black King, defied his orders and falls in love with the White Maiden, in hopes that their union would end the war. Both were not meant to meet and love each other as the war ravaged the world around the land and the skies.
Several millennia after the war, in a world consisting of numerous isles, a young hero from the Astora Isle encounters the adventurer Kyle and follows him on an expedition on the isle. They meet a mysterious girl named Iris and a talking white cat named Catra, and together they make their way to the isle’s ruins, where they find a flying island. Kyle becomes consumed by darkness there, and the party resolves to travel to the ends of the world on the flying island in order to find the seven “Great Runes”, following Kyle’s words before he disappeared.
Upon their adventures towards finding the Runes, both the hero and Iris start to fill the pieces, meeting friends and enemies and discovering their true identities.
That’s it for my list. I hope you found some good anime here. Do you think there is an anime that should be on the list? Which is your most anticipated anime for this season? Write your thoughts on the comments below. See ya in the next article.

Before I begin this article, I would like to say that everything here is my personal opinion and I believe every single word I say. I will not sugarcoat anything. If someone feels that this offends him then I can’t do anything about that.
The Players
League of Legends has one of the worst communities in gaming and there is a good reason for it. The game makes people toxic with how it is structured. It forces players in a team with 4 strangers, some of them being trolls and you are stuck with them for at least 15 minutes.
If someone goes afk then too bad for you. You will lose not only 15 minutes of your time or 20 since 4 people agreeing to surrender is rare so early even with afk on the team but you will also lose LP and your MMR will drop.
Now don’t get me wrong. I am ok with losing to a better team and I won’t consider this a waste of time since you can learn something from that kind of loss, but losing a 4vs5 game with afk or losing a game with someone on your team trolling serves no purpose and gives no value to you.
You just get stomped and there is nothing you can do about it. Riot doesn’t care about this and has done nothing to solve this problem. On the contrary, it punishes people with bans when they talk bad to people that want to waste their time and the trolls get 0 punishment except if they do this every single game.
As long as Riot doesn’t do something to fix this the players will keep being toxic.
Champion Updates
This is another problem for me. Champion Updates are bad most of the time and some times they are so bad that Riot reverts them all together. Visual Updates are good and should happen, but Gameplay Updates are a real problem.
Gameplay Updates change a champion so much sometimes that it plays nothing like before. Some of my favorite champions got Gameplay Updates and I rarely play them now because they don’t feel or play the same.
For me, Gameplay Updates should have a minimal impact on how the champion plays, because if you change the thing that people picked the champion for then it’s not the same champion anymore, and the only thing that remains the same is the name.
[adinserter block=”1″]
The Punishment System
The League of Legends Punishment System sucks. First of all, it’s automated meaning that if you just get many reports you will get punished automatically even if you didn’t say something bad enough to deserve punishment.
Second, when you try to make a ticket to explain the situation Riot, you feel like they don’t care at all about what happened they will just say it’s your fault and behave better next time. I actually have a story about this.
In my first Ranked game this season I had a Nunu in my team that went jungle and had no smite when the game started. At this point, I should mention that when someone goes jungle the game automatically switches one summoner spell to smite so for someone that went jungle to not have Smite they have to manually change Smite to another spell.
I played Kassadin in the midlane at that game. When the game started Nunu decided to come to my lane to farm without asking me. I told him many times to leave my lane since Nunu is literally the only champion in the game that can farm in jungle without any problem even with no Smite since he has an ability that works even better than Smite and can help him survive in jungle with no problem.
Nunu didn’t care about what I had to say and continue to steal my farm in the lane for the duration of the laning phase. I had Kassadin, a champion that needs to farm and needs to level as fast as possible to be useful in a game and having someone stalling that process is devastating.
At some point, I got so frustrated about this that I said some minor insults to him. Here is my chat:
StunyG: no duo StunyG: I am late game StunyG: we lost StunyG: I cant scale StunyG: scale StunyG: scale StunyG: you are nunu StunyG: go jungle StunyG: doesn’t matter StunyG: we lose 2 lanes now StunyG: go afk StunyG: you destroy my lane StunyG: can’t play like this StunyG: I am tilted StunyG: with that nunu StunyG: leave StunyG: now StunyG: reported StunyG: pls report nunu StunyG: I won’t help you StunyG: typical first ranked troll in my team fuc**** my lane StunyG: do jungle StunyG: jungle StunyG: you are NUNU StunyG: OMG StunyG: you have an ability that is basically smite StunyG: go farm StunyG: jungle StunyG: let me scale StunyG: yeah have someone distracting you in lane StunyG: and play good StunyG: then StunyG: is this bronze StunyG: I play a super late game champ StunyG: and I cant farm StunyG: go JUNGLE StunyG: OMG StunyG: GO StunyG: you are level 7 for gods sake StunyG: go jungle StunyG: and farm StunyG: doest matter StunyG: you still get exp StunyG: and gold StunyG: yes fuc* my lane StunyG: and then talk StunyG: are you really so stupid that you don’t get that I need to farm StunyG: to be useful StunyG: draven focuses support StunyG: you are reported StunyG: troll StunyG: you fuc*** my lane to oblivion StunyG: both reported StunyG: toxic StunyG: you don’t have smite StunyG: smart guys StunyG: hahaah top carried him StunyG: and he talks StunyG: 3/5/8 StunyG: lol StunyG: thank draven and top nunu StunyG: you cant back door them StunyG: wait 5vs5
For this I got 20 games chat restriction. I barely said any words that can be considered verbal abuse to Nunu which he completely deserved and still got chat restriction. This was the final nail in the coffin for me. A few weeks after that I gave up on League of Legends because I had enough of this.
I have to say I actually feel better now that I finally left this frustrating situation where you are powerless when someone decides to ruin your day.
For me, there shouldn’t be a punishment for verbal abuse since you can hear worse things in the street than in the game. I completely agree to punishment for racial insults but to get a ban for saying the F word is a joke. If someone doesn’t like the way you talk to them they can always mute you.
That’s it for my article guys, I hope you liked it. I said things that I thought about for a long time now and finally got around writing an article about them. This was my opinion and you can agree or disagree with what I wrote above.
I will never compromise my writing ethic to be more loved by the audience. I will always write the truth and my 100% honest opinion for the things I write about. See ya in the next article.

Just to be clear, I’m talking about tabletop TCGs, not digital.
TCGs are the most popular tabletop getaway for gamers and casual players alike. Be it from casually playing among friends to huge international tournaments, TCGs are an integral part of the gaming world.
But are they worth getting into? Should you play any TCG, whether casually or competitively? Let’s start with:
The Basics
TCG stands for Trading Card Game, which means that TCGs are practically that; a card game.
Usually, the company that releases new cards will release them in the form of Booster Packs, which contain a number of cards.
Usual gimmicks include different rarities among cards, different playstyles and deck archetypes and some preset rules like number of cards in a deck or maximum number of the same cards in any deck.
If there are different rarities, then Booster Packs will probably feature a chance to get some of the limited copies of the rarest card(s) of the set.
Usually, there are more expensive and quite larger packs that aim at helping newer players build a deck. These usually contain a preset basic deck of some specific playstyle or archetype.
These packs have some great individual cards that can also help older players. Though usually, these packs tend to be very weak on their own and serve as an introductory deck for new players.
There can be event packs as well, on anniversaries, or if a new season of the game’s anime version is released, among other things.
Your goal is to build a deck that is viable enough to stand in the current meta and its rules.
Most TCGs have many ways of winning a game, but the classics are reducing your opponent’s HP (life, health call it whatever) to 0 and your opponent is unable to draw cards.
The most popular TCGs are Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon TCG.
The Market
Since we’re talking about physical products, it’s rather obvious that each and every card will have its own value. Rarer or more limited cards tend to be the more expensive cards on every new set.
Older cards, or cards unable to be used at all but have some form of error in their text, or alternate art, or even is just plain old are worth way more.
Finally, card strength in the current meta is usually a criterion to price but is the least priority.
The prices always fluctuate depending on the players, the meta and new releases.
That’s the first problem with TCGs. Since some cards are bound to be much more expensive than others, that means that at some point, players who can afford to pay more are going to have an advantage.
As with most markets, if you are experienced (or wealthy) enough, you can collect cards, and when (if) their price skyrockets due to anything like new releases, new balance changes, etc, you can sell for a profit.
But we’re not here to talk about how to make money from TCGs, it’s pretty pointless anyway, the point is to lose money and have fun (like gambling which I do not endorse).
[adinserter block=”1″]
Balancing
TCGs must be balanced by their respective companies.
Else, you have an optimal strategy that anyone who can afford it will play and win.
I mean, of course, there are going to be optimal strategies and decks, but at the very least, they should be beatable by some other powerful decks.
The meta should have about 2-4 dominant decks, as well as up to 5 strong decks that can compete with the dominant ones.
Among the strong and dominant decks, usually, you will be able to build a plethora of non-meta decks for fun.
There are 2 main ways that TCGs are balanced, and both have their problems.
The first is by a banlist. A banlist is a list that dictates which cards can be played and how many times.
This way, if something is too strong, you just ban it or reduce it at least. Of course, this can always be used to make players force buy new cards by banning the meta but who am I to point it out?
The second way to regulate things is by creating formats. Essentially, this means that most new cards can be used and old cards become obsolete. This also means that most official tournaments will be held using this format.
Of course, when playing casually, the players make the rules.
The 2 above regulations have both positives and negatives.
The banlist has the positive of ensuring that players can keep their decks as long as they stay relevant, and since you only ban outliers, you ensure that the only way to shake up the meta is by introducing new archetypes and decks that are interesting.
The negative is split into 2 parts.
The first is that if a company gets too greedy, they’re gonna release intentionally OP generic cards for everyone, and, due to its power and age, it will become very expensive.
Thus, most players who play competitively will be “forced” to buy them. And since the banlist exists, and this is an obvious outlier, it will get banned, and the next big thing will be introduced.
The second is known to everyone; powercreep.
Now don’t get me wrong, powercreep can be a problem without a banlist.
In fact, many games, TCG or not, suffer from powercreep.
Before I get into this further, I will explain powercreep.
Essentially, powercreep means that with newer releases, old cards become literally obsolete.
When someone talks about powercreep, they mean that a company is intentionally creating stronger and stronger strategies (and in this case cards), in order to “force” players to buy the newer cards.
A banlist can further help with powercreeping, as the company can just release anything they want and correct it afterward with the banlist.
Now about the format system.
The positives and negatives should be obvious. The positive is simply the fact that every tournament will be different than the last, with new decks and strategies to go around.
The negative is of course the fact that you’re gonna have to keep paying to be relevant in any officially supported format.
Epilogue – Pro Play
Most gamers have probably dreamt of going pro one day. Has anyone wondered why it’s so hard to do it?
There are 2 main reasons here. The first is a pro’s ability to be emotionally detached. This means that he won’t favor 1 strategy (or deck) over another due to personal preference in type, art, concept, etc.
He is able to ruthlessly choose the most optimal strategy and execute.
The second is their mentality.
Any gamer thinks that becoming pro is “so awesome and cool ’cause you get to play games all day!”
It’s not.
Being pro means (like any other job) spending hours over improving yourself and/or your strategies.
With these in mind is it worth pursuing a professional career in TCG?
I don’t think so.
A pro in any digital game only has to practice, practice, practice.
In TCGs, pros will have to always spend some of their money on newer cards and releases. Not only that but with the way TCGs are structured, you can literally be the best, only to lose to something you weren’t supposed to just because of a bad draw (simply put, RNG).
In the end, I don’t think that becoming pro in TCGs is that much something anyone should aspire unless they have tremendous talent, but even then, RNG still looms over the horizon.
Epilogue – Casuals
Now to the casuals.
I guess if you enjoy the respective product and any animated shows or games they produce (simply put, if you are a fan), there’s no harm in playing TCGs.
If anything, they offer something fun to do with (hopefully like-minded) friends.
But know this; if you are to become a TCG player, you will lose money.
And it’s not optional.
Do you play TCGs? Which is your favorite? What don’t you like about your favorite TCG? Leave a comment below.

Before I begin this article, I would like to say that everything here is my personal opinion and I believe every single word I say. I will not sugarcoat anything. If someone feels that this offends him then I can’t do anything about that.
I can feel the rage from the WoW fans even before I begin writing this.
The Players
The player base of WoW today is around 5 million. This means that 5 million people pay 15 dollars per month to play WoW.
The thing I don’t like about this is that the players feel like this is a fair price for what they get and this for me isn’t true at all.
They get a game that looks like it came out in 2010 and even though they pay 15 dollars a month they still have to pay every 2 years for the new expansion. The latest expansion called Battle for Azeroth costs 50 dollars which for me is laughable when they already have a monthly subscription of 15 dollars and 5 million, players paying. The expansions shouldn’t cost more than 35 dollars like Final Fantasy XIV does which has the same subscription system.
I really can’t understand how a logical person finds this fair.
Blizzard
They showed that they had no interest in what their fans wanted. I mean who could forget what happened with the announcement of Diablo Immortals.
“Don’t you guys have phones?!” This quote will never be forgotten by the gaming world.
They have so much revenue from their games and yet they don’t want to spend even a fraction of that for the games they make to make them good.
Take Warcraft 3 Refunded Reforged for example. They did the bare minimum to improve the graphics. It looks like a 2008 game and it is full of problems. Most people even accuse Blizzard of false advertisement.
I would expect that from a company that doesn’t have a lot of money and tries to get people to play the game but Blizzard has a net worth of billions of dollars and still, they can’t make a half-decent game because they aren’t willing to spend some of those precious dollars for their games.
The Graphics
A game that is considered to be the best MMORPG right now has no excuse having this kind of graphics. It’s 2020 and the game looks like it was made in 2010.
Blizzard makes around 75 million dollars every month only from monthly subscriptions and every 2 years they get even more money from the new expansions. They could easily afford to update the graphics but they won’t even bother. Why would they bother anyway? Their audience won’t mind since they are brainwashed at this point. They say things like “I love these graphics” and “I don’t want better graphics”.
Either they are blinded by nostalgia or they are so addicted to the game that it doesn’t matter to them anymore. Those of you that want to say graphics don’t matter, I will answer to you that is bs and graphics matter as much as the gameplay.
I wouldn’t compromise, a game should have good graphics and good gameplay. It’s not 2000 anymore. I would expect the best graphics possible if I was paying 15 dollars every month plus buying the expansions every 2 years.
[adinserter block=”1″]
The Payment System
I am not against the monthly subscription payment system when I feel that the game and the studio that made the game deserve this. World of Warcraft is a game that should not have a monthly subscription.
15 dollars a month plus buying new expansions isn’t worth it for this game. Gamers should punish the developers with actions when the developers are greedy as hell.
Unfortunately, the players of WoW don’t do this and as a result, we get games like Warcraft 3 Refunded.
That It Is Still Considered The Best MMORPG
If you search for the top 5 or top 10 MMORPG in most lists you will see World of Warcraft at the top. That for me is totally unfair, because there are games like Guild Wars 2 and Final Fantasy XIV that truly deserve this title.
I tried to start WoW 2 years ago and as soon as I made the character and started the game I was speechless with what I saw. I couldn’t believe that a game that looks so bad has 5 million people paying for it 15 dollars every month. It was unfathomable for me.
I will say it again. I never compromise in gaming. I want games to have both good graphics and good gameplay especially if I have to pay 15 dollars every month to play.
That’s it for my article guys, I hope you liked it. I said things that I thought about for a long time, but I never thought of making an article about them. I am the kind of person that gives credit when it’s due if you have read my past articles you will know this, and WoW doesn’t deserve credit.
I will never compromise my writing ethic to be more loved by the audience. I will always write the truth and my 100% honest opinion for the things I write about. See ya in the next article.

Shin Budokai – Another Road is a dbz game released on PSP. It is influenced by Budokai 3 and that is a good thing as you will see later.
Shin Budokai – Another Road is a 2D fighting game that has a decent story and a good amount of characters to play with to keep you engaged for a lot of hours.
Of course, the game being released on portable console has its drawbacks, which means not so great graphics.
If you don’t mind the graphics and still want a good 2D fighting game, then this will be a nice addition to your PSP collection.
9. Dragon Ball Online
I have had a lot of fun with this game. It’s an MMORPG with a good story. Xenoverse and Xenoverse 2 stories were based on the Dragon Ball Online story.
In Dragon Ball Online you can choose between 3 races, Humans, Namekians and Majin. You can also gather the Dragon Balls and wish for Shenron to unlock the Super Saiyan transformation, but only if you are human (that is because in the time period that the game takes place, all humans have some Saiyan genes and they have the potential to unlock the Super Saiyan transformation).
If you are Namekian you can unlock the Super Namekian transformation and if you are Majin you can become Kid Buu.
The fighting skills that all the races use are based on character moves from the anime like the Kamehameha or the Special Beam Cannon or even the Instant Transmission.
The game was pay to win when it was originally released but since then, the servers were shut down and it was abandoned.
Nowadays fans have received the game and you can play it again without the pay to win elements.
If you want to play the game now search for Dragon Ball Online Universe Revelations.
8. Dragon Ball Z: kakarot
This is the latest Dragon Ball Z game that has been released. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot tried to do a lot of things but it didn’t manage to fulfill all of the fans’ expectations.
Nevertheless, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot had amazing graphics, and it also covered the entire story of Dragon Ball Z with the best animation and cutscenes that we have seen in a Dragon Ball Z game until today.
The combat is decent, it’s not great, but it’s not horrible either. This game could have been a lot higher on this list if the developers did a better job with the RPG elements of the game.
7. Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit
Burst Limit is another 2D fighting gaming with good graphics and solid gameplay. It has a decent roster and anime like fights in the game.
There really isn’t much to say about this game because it is similar to other Dragon Ball Z games just not quite as good as Budokai 3 and Fighter Z.
[adinserter block=”1″]
6. Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2
Raging Blast 2 is a 3D fighting game with very good character graphics, but the scenery feels a little sluggish and the gameplay is similar to Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
Some might say that Raging Blast 2 is better than Budokai Tenkaichi 3 but for me, that isn’t the case. Raging Blast 2 has some What-If transformations like Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta and Super Saiyan 3 Broly. Combos are harder to pull off.
If you are a hardcore Dragon Ball Z fan then I highly recommend this game for you.
5. Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team
Tenkaichi Tag Team is an amazing game that was released for PSP and is very similar to Budokai Tenkaichi 3. It is basically the same with fewer characters and a 2 vs 2 mode, which I think is awesome.
I have played this for a lot of hours and trust me, you won’t be disappointed. The only reason this game isn’t in the 3rd and 4th position is that it is on a portable console and it doesn’t have as much content as the games below.
If you liked Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and you have a PSP or an emulator you should get this game.
4. Dragon Ball FighterZ
Dragon Ball FighterZ is a game that is considered by many one of the best fighting games ever made.
The story mode of the game is fun and entertaining. Especially the character interactions. Seeing Cell roast everyone is a sight to behold.
FighterZ and Xenoverse 2 can be compared with each other the same way you can compare Budokai 3 and Budokai Tenkaichi 3. It all comes down to 2D vs 3D. I personally prefer 3D and that’s why I placed FighterZ in the fourth place and Xenoverse 2 in the third place, but someone else could have done the opposite and I would be fine with that.
If you love 2D fighting games then you will find that this is a game for you.
3. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
When the first Xenoverse was announced I thought that I would see a game that is similar to Budokai Tenkaichi 3 but with better graphics, character creation and online gameplay. It didn’t go as I expected it.
Xenoverse 2 is a good game and a worthy successor to Xenoverse but for me, the fighting mechanics aren’t as good as Budokai Tenkaichi 3. There is no Ki Blast collision like Tenkaichi 3.
Clothing doesn’t get destroyed when someone hits an ultimate on you. The character animation isn’t what I wanted. The character view seems bulky to me.
I would prefer it if they improved the Budokai Tenkaichi 3 animation style rather than making something like what they have now. Had they used similar animations to Ultimate Tenkaichi I would be fine with that.
Finally, the combos and fighting doesn’t feel as anime-like as Budokai Tenkaichi 3. The fighting moves feel slower in Xenoverse and there are no cutscenes on certain moves, something I adore in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
Xenoverse 2 is a great game that many people love but for me, it doesn’t hold a candle to Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
2. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3
Now this game is the biggest contender to Tenkaichi 3. Many lists have this in the first place and many others have Tenkaichi 3 instead.
For me, it comes down to preference. If you prefer 2D fighting games, then Budokai 3 is the best choice for you. If you prefer 3D fighting games, you should pick Budokai Tenkaichi 3. I personally prefer 3D. Budokai 3 has very good fighting mechanics though the graphics are a little dated.
Still, fans have this game in their hearts and consider it one of the best Dragon Ball Z games and rightfully so.
1. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
Budokai Tenkaichi 3 is, in my opinion, the best Dragon Ball Z game ever made.
It has the biggest roster of characters, more than any other Dragon Ball Z game ever made so far.
The story mode is big and contains What-If scenarios too.
The graphics look amazing even to this day and the fighting mechanics are fun and make you feel like you are seeing a fight from the anime. Some say that some character moves feel the same as some other character’s and I agree to an extent but that doesn’t change much.
A lot of fans of Dragon Ball Z still ask for a Budokai Tenkaichi 4 or a remastered edition of Budokai Tenkaichi 3. I have spent hundreds of hours playing this game and I have no doubt that you would enjoy it too.
If you don’t have a ps2 then a ps2 emulator is the only way to play the game for now. I have played this game on PC and it’s even better with an emulator!
That was my list. I hope you enjoyed the article. Tell me in the comments below what is your favorite Dragon Ball Z game or if your favorite Dragon Ball Z game wasn’t on this list, and as Goku said: “See ya later guys!”

The old method(which is described in this article) still works but you have to download an older version of Cemu to do it and when you finish you can then update to the latest one. With the new method, you don’t need to download an older version.
Hi guys! Today I will teach you how to use a mouse and keyboard to play games on Cemu. It probably won’t work on all games, but one game that it will surely work on is BotW. This process is tested and if you follow every step to the letter, I guarantee you that it will work out.
Before I begin I have to warn you THE GUIDE DOESNT WORK FOR CEMU version 1.26.0 or later (probably the “later” part since I don’t know if something changes in the future) so you have to go here https://cemu.info/changelog.html and download cemu v1.25.6, create the controllerProfiles folder in Cemu location manually and do the rest of the process as I show in the guide. You can update to the latest version of Cemu after you finish the whole process I show in the guide since the controller profiles won’t be affected.
What you will need:
Besides Cemu, you will need to download two files from the same website. The website is safe and the files don’t contain any viruses.
From the first link, you will need to download this file: mouse2joystick_Custom_Cemu.zip
From the second link, you will need to download this file: vJoySetup.exe
Now that you have both files let’s begin the process.
First, you need to extract this file: mouse2joystick_Custom_Cemu.zip
Here is what you will get after extraction:
Next, you need to double click the vJoySetup.exe(the first file I told you to download) and install vJoy. You don’t need to change the installation settings just click Next all the time till Install button appears and then click install.
After you finish with the installation open the Windows search bar and type configure vjoy and open the Configure vJoy app.
When you open the app a window will pop up. Copy all my settings exactly as shown in the image below and click apply. Then close the window.
Now I want you to go to the folder that you extracted before from mouse2joystick_Custom_Cemu.zip and open controllerProfiles folder.
This is the folder:
Inside the folder, you will see 4 files. Right-Click on the file named vJoyDevice_GamePad.txt and click Copy.
This is the file:
Now I want you to go to the location you have Cemu on your PC and find controllerProfiles folder. If you have a Cemu shortcut on Desktop you can right-click on it and click on Open file location so that you can find the folder easier.
This is the folder:
Open the folder. Right-click in the space inside the folder and paste the file you copied before.
Here is what the end result will be:
Now I want you to open Cemu.
In the menu at the top of the window click on Options then click on Input Settings.
On the window that will open up, in the Profile setting click on the arrow to the right and choose vJoyDevice_GamePad, in the Emulator Controller setting choose Wii U Gamepad, in the Controller Api setting choose Direct Input and in the Controller setting choose vJoy Device. Then click Load and close the window.
Here is what the window should look like before you close it:
The four arrows are the four settings I mentioned above.
Now I want you to go again to Options then click again Input Settings and open that window again.
After you open it below the Right Axis you will see an option named Range, set that to maximum percentage. If in the Profile setting says <profile name>, click on the arrow to the right and choose vJoyDevice_GamePad. Then click Save. If the Profile setting changes to <profile name> again, it’s ok, just ignore it and close the window.
This is the image just before I clicked Save.
This is the image after I clicked Save.
Now I want you to go to the folder that you extracted from mouse2joystick_Custom_Cemu.zip right-click on mouse2joystick_Custom_CEMU.exe and then go to Properties. Then I want you to go to the Compatibility menu. Make sure Run this program as an administrator is checked. Then click Apply, then click OK.
Here is the image of the file.
Here is how it should look like before you click Apply.
After you click OK. I want you to double-click mouse2joystick_Custom_CEMU.exe. If it is running then you should see this:
This program should be running before you open a game with Cemu in order to be able to play with mouse and keyboard. If you right-click on that icon and then click Settings you can change a lot of things like sensitivity or the key bindings that you will use to play games. Ask me in the comments below if you have any questions about this. You can change the sensitivity of the camera because it is a little slow in some games.
To change key bindings go to the menu I show below, you can find it on mouse2joystick settings(right-click on mouse2joystick icon from the taskbar and then click Settings), after you go there, click on KeyList Helper to change key bindings:
To change the script activation key from F1 to another key go here (you can find it on mouse2joystick settings, to go there right-click on mouse2joystick icon from the taskbar and then click Settings):
Also, I would like to mention – is M on the keyboard. It doesn’t show it in the image.
Now on to the last step. Open whichever Cemu game you want. Once the game window opens up press F1 on your keyboard to activate the script in order to be able to play with mouse and keyboard. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, DON’T FORGET IT SINCE IT WON’T WORK WITHOUT IT. In order to deactivate script press F1 again.
When you press F1 to activate the script the mouse cursor will disappear from your screen. Don’t worry. This is because the script is running. If you press F1 again to deactivate the script then the mouse cursor will appear again.
Some games might require gyroscope/motion controls. For those games watch this video:

Almost any PC gamer has a Steam account, and probably dozens of games with it.
However, not many users seem to bother building up their profile and leveling it.
I don’t know whether it’s because of people not caring about it or not knowing how, but I’m aiming at both audiences with this guide.
To the first, I want to show you that a personalized Steam profile is awesome to have and fun to build.
To the second, I will take you step by step on everything you need to know.
Without further ado:
The Basics
To check the basics on your profile, the first thing you do is hover over your profile name on Steam’s menu up on the left, and then click “Profile”.
There, you will see your profile overview, as seen by other players who visit.
On the top, there is a block that contains your profile image, your username and any personal information you may add (location, real name, a brief description).
On the far left of that block, you will see your level and featured badge (if you have any). There is also the option to edit your profile just below.
As you move down, you will see your showcase(s) (don’t worry if it’s empty, we’ll get to that later.
To the left and below the level and featured badge, there are links to all your badges collection, your owned games, your inventory, screenshots, videos, workshop items, reviews, guides and finally, artworks.
Each of these categories will be filled as you get more into it.
The important thing to know here is your showcase(s). You might not have one, and even if you do, you may notice that others have many more.
The general rule is that you can have 1 showcase for every 10 Steam levels.
Leveling Up
To level up, you need to gain experience.
You can only get experience with badges.
Steam offers quite a lot of badges and therefore experience, as well as the badge you get for owning more and more games and the one that renews every year on the anniversary of your account’s creation.
I guess you can go the free route and just gain experience just by buying games and being active in various events.
However, the main way to gain experience is by crafting badges. You can craft badges for any game you own that has Steam Trading Cards (you can check that in the game’s Steam page).
Most Steam games have a certain amount of cards that can drop (usually half the number of the set rounded either up or down). The rest you can buy or trade.
There will be a more comprehensive trading section in a while, but let’s focus on the badges for now.
Should you gain the full set for any given game, you can craft its badge. The badge will give 100 XP, as well as a random emoticon and background from the game’s pool. There is also a chance to gain a random sale on a random game (but don’t get your hopes up for this, you won’t get anything popular or outright good).
Every badge can be leveled up to 5 times, each time having a new appearance. Each game with trading cards also has a foil badge.
A foil badge only has 1 level and is essentially a more fancy badge. To get it you must have a full set of foil cards. You can also get these by trading or buying them, but you cannot get them from regular drops.
You can also randomly get a foil card from a booster pack, but again, more on that later.
Badges can be used to
You can check any game’s badges, foil badge, cards, emoticons, and backgrounds, as well as prices for each on this website.
If you want to level up, mastering the art of trading is a must. But gem crafting is another thing you must keep in mind.
Let’s start with trading now, shall we?
[adinserter block=”1″]
Trading
By going to your badges page, through the link in your profile mentioned earlier, you will see a list of all your badges.
You can also see above your level and the required experience to level up.
There are also links to your booster pack eligibility and the booster pack creator but we’ll ignore these for now.
For every badge you have, you can see some of the cards you have, how many card drops you have remaining for that game (you get card drops by playing), and if you unlocked it, you can see when you did it.
By clicking on any one badge you can see more details on which cards you have and which you are missing.
Lower on the page, you can see a prompt to buy every remaining card on the market, something I recommend if you can spare the money, or make it by selling from your inventory.
Lower, for every card you are missing, you can check the market for it individually, or visit the trade forum.
The trade forum is an excellent way to gain missing cards, provided you have some duplicates. However, as you’ll see, there are many people who offer to trade 2 random of your cards for one of theirs.
If you really want that badge, I guess it’s worth it.
Anyway, when I first got into a trade forum, I was overwhelmed. I saw all the post titles and I couldn’t figure out their language for the life of me.
Luckily, I’m here to explain it to anyone who feels the same:
Let’s get the basics out first. [H] means [H]ave, which means that [H] is the cards someone who starts a discussion owns.
When someone says [H] 1, it means they own and want to give the first card of the set.
[W] means [W]ant, which is practically the user’s demands.
In the above-circled example, [W] 1:2 or offers means that he’s willing to give his 4th, 8th, 10th or 14th card of the set for any 2 random of your cards (hence the 1:2), or offers, which means, if you offer him something that is expensive or rare or one of your foil cards, he will consider it.
Of course, by going into the discussion, he’ll probably give further explanation for the offers part.
This second example is much more simple.
He has a spare copy of card number 10 and is willing to give it for any of the mentioned cards in his title (1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13).
You might notice some closed discussions. That means that the users that created these discussions had their wishes fulfilled.
Inventory
Again by hovering on your name, or through your profile, you can access your inventory.
This will display your owned items. We are interested in your Steam items only, not anything you might have from other games.
For every Steam Card, background and emoticons, you can see its price in gems, in the market, and how many were sold during a small period till today.
Sometimes, you might want to sell some of your belonging to buy a game, more cards, or just plainly don’t want it.
However, don’t get too excited about the prices.
You see, when a card costs, for example, 0.07€ (like the above), you put that into the Buyer pays box, and with taxes, you will gain less (0.05€ to be specific).
You can put more or less, and there are advantages and disadvantages to both practices.
If you put less, you guarantee your item to be on top of the list, thus selling faster. This is especially good if the item you’re selling isn’t very popular, and doesn’t sell well. Obviously the negative is the less money you get.
Contrariwise, selling a popular item higher means that you might not sell immediately, but as soon as all the items that are listed with a lower price are sold out, you will sell. The negative is the waiting time.
(All of the above apply when buying as well.)
Now to the important part:
Gems
As I mentioned quite often, many items can be turned into Gems. But what are they actually?
Years ago, the gems could be used for various purposes. Now, their only use is badge crafting.
The gems can be used to craft booster packs. All you need to do is go to the Booster Pack creator accessed from your badge page.
Notice different booster packs have different gem costs. Some are more efficient and some just aren’t.
A booster pack gives you 3 random cards from its game. If you’re really lucky, you might get a foil. Nevertheless, it’s your best chance of finishing a badge without needing to buy any cards.
If you get duplicates, you can just trade them with other users.
There is one very important thing to know here.
A pouch of 1000 gems can be found and bought in the community market. They cost about 0.30€ but that fluctuates.
However, it’s a good average to keep in mind. If so, that means that 100 gems cost 0.03€, and 0.01€ gives you about 33 gems. You should keep these values for reference before you buy anything.
If you do want to go the efficient route (booster packs for card selling) I suggest using this site. You can see which of your eligible booster packs is the most efficient to make if you want to sell all the cards.
Finally, something about their drop rate (yes… booster packs can drop randomly). You are eligible for a booster pack drop only after you’ve collected all the free card drops.
Booster packs drop randomly to players when other players craft badges for that game. Of course, there is a bad luck barrier, so each game does get a booster pack drop even if no one is crafting badges.
The point here is, that every 10 levels on your account boost your chance of getting a booster pack by 10%!
The bonus is multiplicative though and not additive. That means that if your base chance is 10% and you are level 10-19, you have 11% of getting it (10 + (10% of 10)).
[adinserter block=”1″]
Personal Tips
There is a trading practice I’ve learned while trading.
When you have spare cards (from events, or if you get a booster pack on a game that you have full badges on), while selling or turning in to gems is very good and typical, you can actually profit from them.
If these cards are from a game with an active community, you can actually do the 1:2 trade we saw earlier. Here’s the trick:
You ask for a 1:2 trade, 1 is yours from that set for 2 random cards of their choosing from their inventory. This way you can have 2 cards to sell or turn into gems, or even trade them both for a 1:2!
Just make sure to check the prices of the items given to you so you don’t actually lose money.
To sweeten the pot, you can instead ask for a 1:1 foil that they have or a 1:1 card + a number of gems (20 for example if your card is less than 20). This way you get surefire winnings. Stonks.
Also, if you make enough money to mass buy a badge, it’s not a bad idea, and you also get some refund back in the form of backgrounds and emoticons.
Don’t forget to edit your account and build your showcase. That’s the purpose of this guide after all!
I hope I clarified some things for you. Messing around with your Steam account can be rather fun and if you don’t lose yourself with buying all the badges and mass leveling, it’s a perfect way to spend your extra time between games or work.
If you have any question feel free to ask. I wish you all a happy profile building!

Hey guys! Today I will talk about 8 anticipated games of 2020. I hope you find some games on this list that you didn’t know about. Now let’s begin.
1. Final Fantasy 7 Remake – April 10, 2020
This is definitely one of the most
anticipated games of 2020. Final Fantasy games have a long history in the
gaming world and a passionate fanbase. Final Fantasy 7 is considered one of the
best installments in the Final Fantasy franchise and as you can guess fans
can’t wait play the remake of this game. The game is a timed-exclusive for PS4,
so those that don’t have a PS4 will have to wait to play it on their gaming
system.
2. Resident Evil 3 Remake – April 2, 2020
Another remake of a game from a popular franchise.
I guess you can say this is the year of remakes. The fans of Resident Evil get
another remake after Resident Evil 2 and let’s hope they do as good as they did
with the previous remake.
3. Elden Ring – June 2020
This is my personal favorite from this list
and the game I most anticipate. FromSoftware is known for making brutally
challenging games and their games have created a new gaming genre called
souls-like. This time they up the stakes once again. Promising an open world
experience with a new story created by the author George R.R. Martin. There aren’t a lot of information about the
game. We only know that it will be an RPG and that it takes place in an open
world.
4. Dying Light 2 – Spring 2020
Dying Light was a very intriguing game when
it was released. The concept was parkour with zombies and I have to say it was
a lot of fun. I have a review of the first game so click here if you want to
check it out. We have to wait and see how the developers will improve upon the
first game and if they can deliver an even greater experience.
5. Cyberpunk 2077 – September 17, 2020
CD Projekt Red is well know in the gaming
world for the Witcher games. They were and still are extremely popular and The
Witcher 3 is even considered by many to be the best action RPG ever created.
Cyberpunk 2077 shows a lot of promise in the trailers and knowing CD Projekt
Red, they will probably give us an amazing game.
6. Godfall – Holidays 2020
This is my second favorite game from this
list. Godfall was something that I didn’t expect. The trailer for the game was
breathtaking. Magic with knights wearing cool looking armor. The game looks
amazing, and we know that it will be a loot-driven action RPG, and you will be
able to play solo or co-op. It will also have real-time melee combat.
7. Watch Dogs: Legion – 2020
Watch Dogs: Legion introduces a new mechanic that we haven’t seen in any game before. In Watch Dogs: Legion you will be able to recruit any NPC from the citizens of London and make him/her a part of your team and a playable character. This is a very interesting concept but it’s also very hard to pull off in a way that it works and it’s fun. This sure isn’t an easy task and whether they succeed or not we will have to wait and see.
8. Diablo 4 – 2020
Diablo 4 is a game that fans of the Diablo franchise have been wanting for years. Finally, Blizzard announced that the game will be released in 2020. Now whether Blizzard can meet the fans’ expectations for this game, it remains to be seen.
I hope that you liked my list. What other games are you looking forward to playing in 2020? Write a comment down below and tell me.

Hi guys! Today I will show you 4 easy things you can do to get a few more FPS in games.
Before we begin, do a backup of your PC to make sure you are safe if something goes wrong.
I have to say I do this for years regularly
(I mean I do this every time I restart my PC which is often) and not a single
time I have had any problems, literally never.
For that 0.01% chance though, I
recommend you do a backup.
I warn you to do this on your own
responsibility.
Even though I am 99.9% sure nothing
will go wrong, I just say this so that you don’t blame me if something goes
wrong.
I have also made a Youtube video that shows the whole process that I describe below. The images are from that video. Here is the link.
Now let’s begin.
First Step
Press Windows Key + R. In the window that opens up type: prefetch.
If a window pops up saying that You don’t currently have permission to access this folder then click Continue.
If you have more files than me then
it’s ok, as I said I delete these files regularly.
Now, in the window that opens up select everything (or press CTRL+A to select everything faster) and then right-click on the files and click Delete (or press DEL on the keyboard).
If some files can’t be deleted, then click on the window that opens up Do this for all current items and click Skip after that.
Then close the window.
Second Step
Now, press Windows Key + R. In the window that opens up type: temp.
If a window pops up saying that You
don’t currently have permission to access this folder then click Continue.
If you have more files than me then
it’s ok, as I said I delete these files regularly.
Now, in the window that opens up select everything (or press CTRL+A to select everything faster) and then right-click on the files and click Delete (or press DEL on the keyboard).
If some files can’t be deleted, then
click on the window that opens up Do this for all current items and click Skip after
that. Click Continue if a window pops up like it did just now.
Then close the window.
[adinserter block=”1″]
Third Step
For the last time, press Windows Key + R. In the window that opens up type: %temp%.
If a window pops up saying that You
don’t currently have permission to access this folder then click Continue.
If you have more files than me then
it’s ok, as I said I delete these files regularly.
Now, in the window that opens up select everything (or press CTRL+A to select everything faster) and then right-click on the files and click Delete (or press DEL on the keyboard).
If some files can’t be deleted, then
click on the window that opens up Do this for all current items and click Skip after
that.
Then close the window.
Make sure to Empty Recycle Bin. If a window pops up while you Empty the Recycle Bin then click Continue.
Fourth Step
The last thing that you can do to improve FPS in games, is to find the game’s .exe file (sometimes the .exe has a shortcut on Desktop, but if it is a steam game for example then you will probably have to find the .exe file on your game files).
I will show you an example of where
to find the .exe file if it is a steam game after I explain what to do if the
.exe file has a shortcut on Desktop.
Now if the game’s .exe has a desktop shortcut, then right-click on it and then click Properties.
Then click on the Compatibility Tab (You won’t see this tab if it is a steam game and you will have to find the .exe file, so wait for me to show where to find it later).
Then make sure that Disable fullscreen optimizations box is checked.
After that click Change high DPI settings. Make sure that both boxes in the window that appears are checked.
Then click OK in that window and then click Change settings for all users. Make sure that Disable fullscreen optimizations is checked there, and below that, click Change high DPI settings, and in the window that pops up make sure that both boxes are checked.
After that Click OK in that Window, then click OK again and click OK one more time to close the last window.
Now I will show you where to find the .exe for steam games.
Open Steam and click Library. Right-click on the game you want from the left and click Properties.
Then in the window that opens up, click the Local Files tab.
After that click Browse Local Files. Then open Binaries Folder, then open Win32 folder and you found the game’s .exe.
Right-click on it, then click Properties and do the things I mentioned before.
That’s it for my article guys. I hope you liked it. Did you get more FPS after you did these 4 steps? Tell me how many FPS you got in the comments below. See ya in the next article.
