I get it now. They're comparing only trunks because the hash of the trunk wouldn't change.

Because

they save the hash for the full password as well as the hash for the password without the last character. So if you attempt to change only the last character, they can detect it.

is not how hashing works. You can't create a subset hash to compare against the set hash.

Let's say my password is "ILoveUsingSimplePasswords1".

You remove the last character and get "ILoveUsingSimplePasswords".

And then I change the password to "ILoveUsingSimplePasswords2".

Now here are those 3 "passwords" hashed.

  • 5c30739dfd7a5df387f9a3e6c08a026831314e8cc8df4f18e3c2a7baddf30bb2
  • a78cb4f0ddf5513862e97e20fe8f331d08bbb5aacf0ac14c0b6a0f1b036a7b6b
  • 9385bd96fb795abd7204d27990e8c7b2bf929bac772b6f8e3b875e8a313be5cb

Can you tell which of the 3 is "ILoveUsingSimplePasswords" and can you identify where I've added 1 or 2 to the end? You can't because it's not how hashing works.

Are you sure it's all negative? Because on my steam the base game is "Mostly positive". The DLCs are "Mixed" and outside of the The awakened king I can't say much about the DLCs.

As for my short review. I'm not sure what those people think Remnant 1 was about but for me it was unique worlds, unique builds and unique enemies. Those things together give you an unique gameplay experience and Remnant 2 expands on all of those things.

The aesthetic was excellent in Remnant and Remnant 2 continues that by making those worlds even more detailed. There were multiple times where I just looked in awe at what the artists had concocted together. The only time where I felt the artistic vision wearing thin was literally the end of the game. I have vivid memories of all the worlds that are available in adventure mode, the final area ended up being unremarkable compared to everything that had come before it.

The builds in Remnant were pretty unique but I personally felt like the game didn't give you enough tools early game to mid game to really build something out. You had guns, armor, trinkets, traits and mods but it all felt kinda constrained. Remnant 2 expands that by additionally giving you class archetypes, weapon mutators and you can modify the relic (the heart thingy that heals you in Remnant 1) and add relic fragments. All all those things individually are also expanded. Compared to the first game you're going to get more guns, more armors, more rings, more amulets, just more of everything necessary to make a build.

The enemies in Remnant were great, an excellent mix of small enemies, minibosses and big bosses. Remnant 2 expands all of them with an even greater mix of small enemies, minibosses and big bosses. I'm not going to spoil any bosses but I definitely found them fun and memorable. The final boss is the only exception that comes to mind as I remember that being a frustrating fight.

The only objectively negative thing I can say about Remnant 2 was the performance. I don't know if they've released some patches for it, but when I played around the launch of the awakened king it was borderline unplayable without upscaling.

If you enjoyed Remnant then it's definitely worth picking up Remnant 2. Remnant 2 improves on everything that was great about Remnant.

I'm pretty sure the game is enjoyable, but is it really $70 (Or in case of EU 80€ which to be crystal clear is a fucking joke of a price) enjoyable? I thought about buying Doom TDA but when I saw the price tag I decided to buy V Rising instead. I'm pretty sure for more than half the price I'm getting as much enjoyment out of V Rising as I would out of Doom TDA.

My issue with the increase of premium pricing is mainly pragmatic. There's no reason to pay that price when you could get just as good or better games cheaper.

Best example of character growth in all of media.

There's no reason to look at Steam numbers because the biggest extraction shooter isn't on Steam, yet.

While the qualis are always good in Monaco points are awarded for racing not qualifying and races themselves are generally a snorefest.

I can appreciate qualis but I watch F1 for the racing. If I want watch something time trial style then I'd rather WRC than F1.

If you take 1kg of steel and 1kg of water, which is heavier? That's right, steel is heavier.

What do you think the show worked towards and established prior to the ending? Because in my eyes what the show did up to the ending was in service of the ending.

I'm willing to eat my words but I doubt I need to. In a world where Clair Obscur costs $50 I don't how see how BL could be $30 better than one of the best games released this year.

She's not just the main character towards the end, she is the main character of the story. We play Geralt, who is a side character in Ciri's story.
