Diablo game level seeding

Great read into how a Diablo speedrunner player, got caught cheating, years after having the Guinness World Record.

I also never though of how random level generation works. By using a timestamp as the seed, you can make sure that each run is unique.

This quote in the comment killed me:

So based on reading this, had his run been legitimate then there existed not only a “god seed” but a specific point in time when the that run could be completed naturally.
Imagine buying a game and it came with a label:
“This game best completed on May 11th at 10am, 40 years after publishing.”
