"Everyone thought it was hilarious": Remnant 2 makes good on 'git gud' taunt by giving stuck players their "3 orange slices and a participation medal"
Back in August, Remnant 2 principal designer Ben Cureton told the RPG's players to git gud. In response to complaints about the RPG's punishing, accurately named Apocalypse difficulty, Cureton argued that, "it's called Apocalypse. It's not called 'I get 3 orange slices and a medal for participation.'"
Well, folks, Remnant 2 will now give you three orange slices and a participation medal for playing Apocalypse difficulty, and it's one of my favorite Easter eggs of the year.
As Cureton revealed in a tweet earlier this week: "I may have been too harsh. In the recent update, we made sure players could obtain three Orange Slices and a Participation Medal for playing on Apocalypse. You do not have to own the DLC, you just need to have the latest build." As a kicker, he teased that you can "use them together for an extra buff."
The resulting in-game items are Dried Fruit consumables that provide a little bit of healing, and a genuinely incredible amulet called the Participation Medal, which boosts your health and stamina by 10, your movement speed by 10%, and – this is the big one – flat damage reduction by 10%. This is basically two or three decent amulets rolled into a great one.
Obviously, I had to find out how this joke came together, and how exactly you acquire these things in Remnant 2.
