EPIX Loot Detector - P2W for extra quests and experience, costs 2.49 EUR. The quests marked with 🤑 can be completed only if you bought this (you will probably need to find the answers alone, since I am against P2W hence I will not be able to solve them)

The link finished two other quests ("Opening Night Live and chill" & "Temple of Absolute Passion for Computer Games"), but not "Scan the Glam". :-( (what is good though, because just opening the livestream didn't work for me for these quests!)

Scanned the QR code from the livestream and got this link, which completed the scan quest: https://www.gamescom.global/en/epix/epix-15-7963432121344/?utm_source=onl&utm_medium=epix&utm_campaign=epix_2023&utm_content=onl_qrcode
