Reading the new "walkthrough section," I can see that the PC's password part near the end is not that well designed because there is no actual hint that you need to change the "Format" of the passwords to solve them (for example having a pasword being just plain numbers of values that can also be expressed by words (the date) and the one where you also have to include the University ) There were 2 extra password puzzles before those ones, and both of them used the joke "PASSWORD 123" + extra, which is misleading.
The new segment should make it clear about the formatting of the new passwords in some way.
Either way, I will continue playing the game to see what's next.
