Oda has shown fans just how powerful Joy Boy was, confirming expectations of the first pirate in the world of One Piece. Joy Boy wasn’t just skilled – he was incredibly strong, enough to genuinely frighten the World Government.

The Forked Tower: Blood raid, first introduced in Patch 7.25 along with the Occult Crescent, is a large-scale encounter for 48 players. It’s only accessible through the South Horn field operation. While not required for the main storyline, the raid—named after a dungeon from Final Fantasy 5—provides difficult challenges and special rewards, like the unique Demon Haul mount. However, it received some criticism because its mechanics could heavily penalize the entire raid team for a single player’s error.

As a long-time Destiny 2 player, I remember how excited everyone was when it launched back in 2017. Even though it’s free-to-play now with all the expansions, there’s been some drama behind the scenes. Last year, a writer named Matthew Martineau actually sued Bungie, saying they’d used ideas from his work in the Red Legion storyline and The Curse of Osiris expansion.

Thankfully, it looks like everything’s been settled out of court now, which is good to hear.

Let’s look at some games where it’s fun to experiment and see what you can uncover.
