[craggy ore]

too much physics stuff for it to be worth it, imagine the desync

split screen is planned and does work though

[granite trench]

oh ye desync

[bleak iris]

Anyone know when gore will be added? If I remember correctly it should be any day now but I can’t find the faq

[brazen cloak]

when the devs are finished

no time specified atm

[bleak iris]

Thanks

[brazen cloak]

np

[silver estuary]

yo someone said i can play on chromebook and its not working

[desert turret]

whem is the playtest going to end

[silver estuary]

so it wont be free no more?

hello?

[pallid halo]

Hello, how much will the game cost after playtest?

[little verge]

I think you may have been mislead.

[pallid halo]

Will there be regional prices?

[little verge]

Still in early development pricing is to be determined.

[stray garnet]

Space Program confirmed

[proven lily]

Oh-

[worn heron]

bring him back

[silver estuary]

well he said

[polar scaffold]

I'm so glad I have the playtest it is so fun

[gusty kestrel]

getting jumped

[bright belfry]

why sometimes when i use free cam the camera freaks out

and like enters the shadow realm

both playtest and demo

[gusty kestrel]

slightly dead

[gusty kestrel]

idk 🤷‍♂️

[weak roost]

Dude the first one is a banger

[tranquil ginkgo]

thank youu good sire!

[thin stump]

Rondel!

[thin stump]

Speaking of, since we have the awesome musician of the game, where can i listen to the main menu theme of the early itch io demo of the game?

[tranquil ginkgo]

hii, thanks for the support! all of the songs are mine except that one hahahh there was another musician who made that song; but he is no longer related to HS

[thin stump]

Awww thats too bad, you are definitely in my top 5 game music soundtracks. And i mean that genuinely

[floral birch]

the music goes hard

after 10 hours its still a pop

[tranquil ginkgo]

ooo, thank you ❤️ hard game needs hard music hahahh

doing my best to fill the shoess

[thin stump]

Im surprised you didn’t make the menu music in the early itch io demo

Its so you as well

[floral birch]

on a real note, thank you guy so much for making such a cool game

guy's*

[thin stump]

El monte is a good replacement LOL

[trail pivot]

hope the music journey for half sword isnt over and we will get more new soundtracks, possibly for the other maps

[tranquil ginkgo]

its a team effort and its giving fruits 🙂

[tranquil ginkgo]

hahahah ❤️

[tranquil ginkgo]

oooo, more songs will come 🙂

[thin stump]

Man its so awesome seeing your instagram stories

Where you sort of show how you create the songs, each instrument by itself is a bop as well

[tranquil ginkgo]

ooo love to hear it! the music spoilers are always there hahahh

[trail pivot]

jesus that was brutal

[coarse hemlock]

what does body density do in half sword

nvm

[little verge]

I saw that.

[solid axle]

how do yall play that verson of the game

[little verge]

Request access on the steam store page and then you will be accepted shortly after.

[torpid berry]

Why is there a blood setting but no blood when I stab people?

[little verge]

#faq

[torpid berry]

ok

[torpid berry]

ahhh ok that makes sense

Although when does Tokyo Game Show end?

[little verge]

That wasn't intended as a response to you.

There is no blood in the playtest because there needed to be a gore free build for in person showcasing, Tokyo Games Show had all the ID verified booths full when we gained entry.

The blood settings is just a holdover from the demo UI.

[little verge]

The final day is Sept 29th.

[torpid berry]

Ok so just a few days, thanks.

[solid axle]

im hella excited to play this game i been seeing it all over tiktok

[loud river]

Blood might not be added immediately after the TGS, we just might get some further info.

[little verge]

Please note, just because TGS ends does not mean the new gore will be ready to be implemented.

[little verge]

Tik Tok has certainly brought in a decent number of people.

[torpid berry]

Yeah I understand. Game development isn't fast or easy, but I can wait until the next update is ready!

[little verge]

At least you understand!

[torpid berry]

Yes, my Dad has been in the industry for over 25 years at this point, so I have some knowledge and a lot of appreciation for game development. I've tried UE5 and Unity before, and done some very basic stuff but it wasn't easy. I think I'll stick to HTML and CSS for now.

[rare mountain]

are a select few able ot do the playtest or everyone is able to?

[torpid berry]

Everyone can enter!

[rare mountain]

alright

[torpid berry]

Read this.

[rare mountain]

ah i see ty

[torpid berry]

Might take a little while for you to get it. At least it did for me.

[rare mountain]

hopefully not to to long

[torpid berry]

Indeed.

[chilly siren]

Is it just me, or is the third and fourth tier the only REALLY exciting tiers

[torpid berry]

Yes they are my favorite!

[chilly siren]

I only really play the top tiers to do the last stand

It would be really cool to select whatever gamemode whenever

[torpid berry]

Mhm.

[little verge]

Check your steam library.

[loud river]

I love tiers 5-6, perfect ratio of armored to unarmored, and the best collection of weapons!

[chilly siren]

I enjoy the War-cleaver esc swords and bucklers

[loud river]

I’ve never liked the falchions for some reason

Bucklers do go hard though

[chilly siren]

I like the small skirmishes with longswords, it would be really neat once they balance bodyweight/balancing so we could reliably grapple

it would make the later tiers much more bareable

[loud river]

Longswords SLAP

[chilly siren]

Or add stomps

[loud river]

Kicks are coming!

Remains to be seen how they go, but they are.

[chilly siren]

yeah, it would be cool for grappling but that might be asking for too much

Just bc its a physics based game and collision is already a tad jank

[stray garnet]

If it's in the open, WIllies, if John has cover, John Wick

[remote crypt]

well, big spiky stick is no longer a problem. Who was talkin' shit that they couldn't?

[quiet gulch]

THE POSE!

THE PRESENCE!

[calm ivy]

VERY nice parries!

Some of the kills in this clip remind me of the fights from The Raid or The Night Comes For Us! Chopping a guy in the leg to hobble/drag him, then cleave the chest, THEN the head!

Plus, I feel like this is the first time I chopped a guy in the ribs(?) hard enough to hear bone BREAKING 😮 lol

ow.

god i love this render mode fo the camera

[remote crypt]

Axes are always my favourites. But swordplay has been just 👌

[calm ivy]

Same, I'm starting to like the swordplay, too! 😛

[remote crypt]

💯

[remote crypt]

just took this to the bank

[gusty kestrel]

no armor gameplay is so fun

[weak roost]

Yes

[remote crypt]

I gotta figure out how you get the flowy shirt + hat and greatsword

[gusty kestrel]

yeah thats gonna be unfun, i cant even open the sav in an online save editor

[thorny canyon]

this gotta be the shallowest stab I think I've ever gotten that's killed https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iKS7ysBdTibQWvIeN/d1337qkVHovS?invite=cr-MSx4YUUsMjU4MTgxMzM2LA

Awesome cam shot!!

[worn heron]

totally not on my innocent buhurt teammate while he was chilling aimlessly

[crude shale]

How much do yall think the game will be on launch?

My guess is like 30

[signal rain]

Any more than 30 for a physics based melee game is asking for less than 1,000 players on release

[median depot]

[worn heron]

ion know man but i spooked him apparently

[soft raptor]

dayum

bro right then n there

https://tenor.com/mw1l2HL3V35.gif

[smoky quail]

why don't we get a Zweihänder tho, even if it's just for the full plate class

[worn heron]

zweihanders with the ricasso on them (the spikey bit) are out of the time period of the game unfortunately, the best we got are greatswords

[opaque creek]

no in bed

sorry for virus

[solar pivot]

i love this game but the performance isnt the best once theres multiple opponents

[opaque creek]

mine goes in half

on 3v3

[solar pivot]

yeah

[opaque creek]

but still playable

[jolly gorge]

what's the name of this soundtrack

[solar pivot]

the worst performance is on the armored 3v3 matches

[opaque creek]

we will see no large battlefields

duel game

[solar pivot]

idk its too short for me to know

literally 4 seconds of sound lol

[jolly gorge]

the most recognizable part of the song though

also don't answer if you don't know dude lmao

[soft raptor]

got a shwored shoved up me's arse

[narrow trout]

when gore?

[solar pivot]

we have to wait another 20 years for processors to be strong enough to simulate full physics battles with thousands of soldiers

[opaque creek]

hurry up taiwan

[solar pivot]

i dont think even the computers at nasa rn have the strength for half sword on full graphics with 100 knights fighting at once

[soft raptor]

my pc was fine when I was on cinematic

but like slightly laggy when i went 3v3, full armor

[soft raptor]

?

[solar pivot]

lucky boy

[worn heron]

do not

[soft raptor]

..

[worn heron]

cinematic badd

known to cause issues

[soft raptor]

it looked like high graphics

not much of a change beside shadows, weather, more closer detail 🗿

[solar pivot]

cinematic is super high performance

and on 3v3?

[soft raptor]

ye it ran perfectly when i went on

[crude shale]

First person needs to be optimized

[solar pivot]

bro has a good pc

[worn heron]

its essentially not a software made for gaming, its used for taking photos and video in unreal engine, so devs are thinking of phasing it out

[soft raptor]

yeah, full armor. 3v3, cinematic and it was slightly laggy

[worn heron]

epic quality is the same quality just without the supreme shaders

[soft raptor]

yeah

overall i tried smth

lowest resolution, lowest graphics

[worn heron]

well, your resolution depends on your monitor

You wanna set the game to match

[solar pivot]

i have to turn my pc to medium for good performance on 3v3

everything else is fine

[soft raptor]

lol

[worn heron]

yeah buhurt is known to cause a strain on the physics

[solar pivot]

i can easily play cinematic on 1v1 though

[solar pivot]

shame because its very fun

[soft raptor]

only issue i had when i went on cinematic and 3v3

[solar pivot]

also last stand is fun

[soft raptor]

like the weapons kept glitching outside my hands slightly

and like a slight stutter

[worn heron]

Try changing between fullscreen and borderless, you may find a difference between the two in performance and graphics.

I wouldn't recommend running fullscreen in cinematic on dx12, that tends to cause crashes

[soft raptor]

alr ima go drop caseohs out my ass

[solar pivot]

what does dx11 look like

i need to check

[alpine lynx]

convergence is today right?

[worn heron]

it's pretty standard. Dx12 is severely unoptimized, and will crash on most rigs. If you're running it on dx12 with success, you're one of ye lucky few

[worn heron]

Yup! Check the pins for the time

[alpine lynx]

its at 11 pm for me guh

[solar pivot]

actually dx11 is pretty much the same just better performance

[worn heron]

Perrff. Some people say dx12 gives you better graphics but tbh I can't tell

Dx11 runs better for me so I just use that

[solar pivot]

from far distances i guess it looks better but the arena is like 20 feet wide who cares

[opaque creek]

dx12 instability for me

not only with cinematic

[solar pivot]

im looking at videos and you guys are better than me 100%

i try to make diagonal swings and it always either goes veritcal or horizontal

[opaque creek]

Move in the direction you hit him in

Cos the momentum just kills them sometimes

And sometimes Willie forward steps and hooks me at the perfect time

[opal sundial]

Damn. Nice. I can only go up to epic (to play at around 120 fps). Cinematic is playable, but I feel like it’s a bit sluggish for me

[alpine lynx]

i can only play on medium

[opal sundial]

Dang

[opal sundial]

UE5 is pretty hard to run, so it makes sense

[opaque creek]

Cinema gives me 24 fps average

On a duel of course

[opal sundial]

Yeah it gives me like 40 fps, but terrible input lag for whatever reason

My cursor just feels floaty and sluggish

[opaque creek]

Input lag is the main put off

And with latency I’ll dread queuing games with it

[opal sundial]

if ever

[opaque creek]

Hopefully even if it’s horrible

Just so it can be experienced

[opal sundial]

I mean we’ll be getting split screen soon. Coupled with steam remote play, it’s basically online

[opaque creek]

Yeah that’s the play for the next decade

[arctic cradle]

Wait, split screen mode?

How the hell Is that gonna work?

[opaque creek]

In the old times you have two people playing on the same device

On the same screen usually

[arctic cradle]

Memories of black ops zombies intensifies

[opaque creek]

Ikr

[opal sundial]

You could just get a friend. Or use steam remote play, to play locally without desync issues

[opal sundial]

*a friend in the same room

[loud river]

Hook up a controller, or a second mouse and keyboard

Ezpz

[main solar]

Any intention on having larger "buster swords"?

[opal sundial]

I’m not well versed in medieval weaponry, but I doubt those actually existed.

[main solar]

No.

Most likely not

But. They are exceptionally cool.

[opal sundial]

The devs are going for period-accurate weaponry and armor. It’s doubtful they will officially add “buster swords”

[smoky quail]

why does the peasant axe have a bigger blade than the Knight's axes

[main solar]

Wood cutting axe obviously. Battle and combat axes are mean't to cut through flesh and be as light as possible for mobility sake

[opal sundial]

Late October or later most likely.

[supple cedar]

@worn heron

[soft raptor]

gang I fell asleep in the shower 🗿 so sigma fr that on god

[sacred compass]

Whoa, doing hobo carnage and I stabbed a guy straight through the forehead and he survived for way too long lmao

Pretty sure in the demo they'd just instantly die

[quick birch]

I think punching is the most 'broken' aspect of the game iv seen so far. I assume it's being tweaked and fixed but feels really flimsy throwing punches yet the AI throws machine gun punches.

Not sure if it's just timing I need to improve or not

Only other method is throwing one big left hand constantly

Anyone got any tips?

[stone musk]

It's definitely timing, u can have the same exact power and effect AI have, however, the way the AI is coded makes them extremely fucking good with punches

[quick birch]

Raising my mouse sensitivity might help with speed but I usually play on lower sensitivity just because I feel I have more control and accuracy when using weapons that way, plus you don't need big strikes half the time.

[stone musk]

Yeah that's what i was suggesting in feedback

[smoky quail]

how hard actually is it to stab a spear through armor? So far I've only done it once because Willie kinda ran into it

[stone musk]

The main problem of the combat system is that if you're toofast with ur mouse, it registers the shortest path or idk

But often u try to slash left to right or right to left and it just goes completely over for some reason

[idle crane]

It's not supposed to happen. It's a glitch that causes clipping. Unless you mean gaps in armour then it's decently difficult

[quick birch]

Yeah I can see videos of people playing max sensitivity thinking it's the play but it's always really messy and exaggerated strikes

[stone musk]

I think the best thing they could do is add just a little bit of script in the slashes just to make them more accurate, not an aimbot but a thing that sends ur strike in a realistic logical path

[sterile mist]

me fighting demons

[stone musk]

Stabbing is very fucking hard

All across the board

I never use spears

[smoky quail]

isn't it historically accurate that stabbing spears were able to pierce through armor tho

[idle crane]

Like a small hole not all the way through to damaging the person

[stone musk]

Reinforced tip were intended for it, now everything depends on the individual spear and individual piece of armour

[smoky quail]

it takes some practice but it's possible, just use the thicc spiky stick so it's less punishing when you miss because it can still hit with the small spikes

[quick birch]

I haven't really had a problem with accuracy once you figure out the weapons weight and the way it can flow etc

[stone musk]

Yeah the goedendag is so fucking goated dude

[quick birch]

On higher sensitivity it's near impossible but on lower end you can feel the way it wants to hit.

[smoky quail]

just accept the fact that not all weapons are equal and some are just straight up upgrades to others, like the 2 versions of the Billhook

[quick birch]

Bill hook is the only weapon I cannot manage for the life of me

[stone musk]

Idk for me the problem is that when u press LMB, and it semi-locks ur camera

That's actually practical

[quick birch]

Are you locking on to the Enemy with F?

[stone musk]

But switching between free and locked cam to adjust slashes and stabs is not refined enough for now imo

[stone musk]

Yeah but i move around a lot

[smoky quail]

Roncone supremacy

why use the non spike tipped version of the Billhook

I also like using the 2 handed mace in armored classes, but the game just refuses to give to me so I end up rerolling for it for several minutes

[quick birch]

The Halberd is fun

[stone musk]

I'm a huge sword enjoyer

Especially fully armored

[smoky quail]

Vouge also has 2 versions but it doesn't really affect its stabbing and slashing properties

[quick birch]

I think fully armoured sword fights just become a slapping contest

[median depot]

agreed

as cool as armored fight is its not very fun

[quick birch]

Or end up half sword brawl

[smoky quail]

it do be accurate that blunt weapons are more effective against full plate

[quick birch]

I'd rather fight with a polearm in full Armour.

I'd only go full Armour with a sword if I'm doing a brave stand against peasants lol

[smoky quail]

though with swords, you can still try to go for the armpit

[median depot]

because of the knight being autistic and wobbling forwards with no control its impossible to aim

you just gotta jab them on the floor or get lucky

[stone musk]

The thing is the weight and balance of the great sword allows you to really swing it around and get absolutely crushing head blows

The thing is it's very versatile

[smoky quail]

it's kind of a known bug where Willie stumbles forward if you're holding a heavy weapon and you turn your camera downwards too much

[quick birch]

Hold shift and your guy stands abit better, steadier and is quicker to move.

Anyone get the bug at the beginning of a match if your holding shift you just stand there or it's like 1 foot is stuck in the ground?

[stone musk]

Nope

[smoky quail]

ye just let go of shift and press it again

it does ruin your plan if you were trying to go rush your opponent with a half sword grip

it's not as bad as when you're using a spear type weapon and your arms literally go behind your back

[median depot]

yes

and then you get stabbed immediately

because no weapon to defend yourself

because your knight is busy using it as a seat

[smoky quail]

proof that spears are effective

[flat stirrup]

Hopefully we will get a gore update news soon TGS is on now

[quick birch]

Apparently it was a myth that they intended to add gore after the TGS

Which is sad

[flat stirrup]

I saw the dev say it wil return with development switching over to the demo build

[stone musk]

Saint Michel

[idle crane]

Oh new sticker

[brittle robin]

https://media1.tenor.com/m/KbKoKuVm5ZUAAAAd/off-to-hang-myself-harm-to-self.gif

[tough yew]

me getting armed [its the half sword devs actually]

[flat stirrup]

Been addicted to sm2 but still thinking about this game and how fun it is with full armour and gore in the demo with mods, really looking forward to playing it in the main build with effects, its just really hard to see how hurt you are or your enemy currently

[smoky quail]

proof that this weapon actually is broken

[smoky quail]

Willie enjoying the view

bro's literally The Mountain

[loud river]

That sallet on the left is triggering me

[loud river]

what

[loud river]

Was an raunchy jape my liege

[tough yew]

Yea, Im very sure it’s ivans old sallet as I remember him making a silly SOON video with it

[polar palm]

question. will the full game have a sort of sandbox option where you can choose how many eneimes to spawn and what gear they have?

[idle crane]

🤷‍♂️

[tough yew]

It isn’t very clear.. we got mixed answers

[polar palm]

noted. i trust that the devs have their vision.

[tough yew]

The trello says there’s a “sandbox” mode on the roadmap but galaxy denied the idea later

[tropic sequoia]

theatre mode please

[tough yew]

would love that

[tropic sequoia]

need to hit those sick clips bro

[idle crane]

trello is also rather outdated

[tough yew]

yeah

[tropic sequoia]

imho more games need theatre modes

[tough yew]

for sure

[quick birch]

Is multilayer on the road map?

Would be a sin if not

[tough yew]

Its somewhere there but not actually on the planned stuff

[quick birch]

Also what is the actual game going to be?

A tournament brawler?

[tough yew]

Three game modes we know of so far, Adventure mode, Arena Mode, and the classic abyss.

[quick birch]

Adventure mode?

Is that a planned single player campaign or some sort of free roam style sandbox?

[neon mantle]

Unknown at current time. Adventure mode is adventure mode.

[quick birch]

I imagine it will be some kind of single player career mode.

Start with nothing and win fights to buy better gear etc

[polar palm]

[fleet stump]

pvp couch coop 1 v 1 drawing attenion hehe

if your friends beats you, what's cool is, you can rage on them and hit them with your controler to rematch irl

[trail pivot]

instead give them training swords for them to rematch irl with a duel

unless thats the idea

of the irl rematch

[tough yew]

ivan's looking reall fashionable [unless if that's someone else heheheh]

[idle crane]

Hell yeah

[alpine lynx]

is that the convergence thing

[fleet stump]

that's Tokyo game show

[idle crane]

TGS I think

Yep

[alpine lynx]

oh right its the 26th

[idle crane]

This game is actually perfect for splitscreen because you can't cheat by looking at your friends screen at all

[stiff helm]

is there a slow mo in the play test

[idle crane]

No

[last silo]

that's a great question i will ask him

[solar pivot]

Campaign would be a good idea for showing new players how to play

[last silo]

or just a tutorial 👍

[solar pivot]

The best tutorial is one that doesn’t need to tell you what to do

Apart from basic controls of course

Kind of like what the first demo does with making you fight unarmored foes with peasant weapons

[last silo]

i will be honest there's nothing hard to learn

you can learn yourself its pretty easy

[solar pivot]

Anyway Campaign would be fun

[last silo]

i actually talked to galaxy

[solar pivot]

[alpine lynx]

well there is something similar

[last silo]

stap

[last silo]

cyber bully reported

[alpine lynx]

and the first version of half sword had a dungeon thing that might be added

[topaz plaza]

does anyone know when or what time the Tokyo will be showcasing the game?

[alpine lynx]

its open for business today

[solar pivot]

I played that version so much

[last silo]

i would like to cut that face

[alpine lynx]

it will be public in 28th

[alpine lynx]

half sword dungeon?

[solar pivot]

I couldn’t get past the 4th boss without reducing player damage

[alpine lynx]

itch io didnt have it

[topaz plaza]

ok sweet

[alpine lynx]

dude im talking about the ancient versions

not demo

[last silo]

he gave me a hint (it will release in 2030)

[alpine lynx]

the first ever version had a dungeon

[alpine lynx]

Soon™️

[quick birch]

There are quite a few hidden mechanics that aren't immediately obvious

[alpine lynx]

just check controls

[quick birch]

The more you play the more you pick up

[solar pivot]

[quick birch]

Controls don't tell you about the block box etc

[alpine lynx]

the block box?

tf is that

[polar palm]

who are you and what are your connections..

[last silo]

i'm a greeneye you should know the rest

[solar pivot]

A lot of mechanics that are not explained

[alpine lynx]

tf is a block box

[quick birch]

There is a smallish area in the lower middle of your guard when you move your mouse around there your guy will angle his weapon in line with the enemies guard.

There is a point where you switch from a guard to a striking stance

[alpine lynx]

is there like a video explaining it

[quick birch]

Ye hold on

[solar pivot]

Yeah there a guy that talks about a lot do tactics and mechanics

[quick birch]

https://youtube.com/@ovrdth?si=gRU8Q7rzLBMYIYYS

[last silo]

i got real life experience (i dont know shit)

[quick birch]

Watch this man's videos

[solar pivot]

Also grappling is a very useful tactic

[quick birch]

He does some talking about parrying etc

[solar pivot]

You can drag and throw your opponent to the ground in some situations

[last silo]

i think i'm the best shield user in half sword

[solar pivot]

Heart over death I think is the most advanced player so far

[quick birch]

Another thing I think most people don't realise is that stabs can be aimed.

When you hold alt you point your sword out but if you move the mouse left to right you see the tip of your weapon change it's stabbing angle

when i get annoyed i move like this

https://tenor.com/view/ember-sword-ember-sword-rpg-mmo-gif-26157965

[quick birch]

Also it can be a good tactic to mix stabs with slashs

For example you stap into the guard of a shield and slash away to break their guard for a second

The aura of this pic is unmatched good lord

[last silo]

roleplay in half sword would be very funny

[solar pivot]

I like the way the guys speak when they surrender or when you win

[last silo]

when they beg for mercy just stab their neck 20 times it should help

[quick birch]

Does anyone know if there a way to stop the AI jumping you on the ground and let you back up instead

I know when you hold G they start to back off but not long enough to let you up haha

[last silo]

you realise this is how its supposed to work

[solar pivot]

They sound like late middle English from 1500’s

[halcyon flame]

they speak gibberish

[quick birch]

Well an honourable duel would be a nice option to have

[halcyon flame]

bro thinks he is zuko

[idle crane]

They speak middle English like the dude above you said

[halcyon flame]

im sorry my hearing is impared to the undelightful noises of their mouths

[polar palm]

i found a source that calls this a "Swiss morgenstern" and no pictures of goedendags look like the one in game. am i missing something?

[last silo]

well, yes i agree

[solar pivot]

No they speak clearly Middle English

[halcyon flame]

which version?

[solar pivot]

When they surrender they say “ be not the cause of my death, but let me live for penance” and stuff like that

[solar pivot]

Play test version 0.3

Do you have the demo or play test version

[halcyon flame]

yeah nah, mb. i meant the demo demo, not the play test where its normal

the play test is less fun tbh

[polar palm]

up to prefrence. i think the playtest will be peak once it evolves a bit

[halcyon flame]

yeah, though slicing through 7 people in 2 mins is fun, hopefully it will be in play test

[solar pivot]

The demo where you are in eternal darkness i like less because each time you die you have to start all over again with nothing

[halcyon flame]

but its pretty easy tbf

[solar pivot]

After a few hours of playing I had enough of it completely

It’s easy but all it takes is one slip up and you die and start all over again

[halcyon flame]

without touching sliders i can beat the second final boss

[solar pivot]

I’ve only won the full thing once

[hallow swift]

🥴

[halcyon flame]

thrice, once with easy damage, normal damage, working on high damage

[solar pivot]

I think it was the the third one I couldn’t get past for a while

[halcyon flame]

the red trio?

[solar pivot]

Nvm fourth

The guy with two swords

And full armor

[halcyon flame]

oh mr blue guy

[solar pivot]

I had to increase damage on him because I spent like 5 minutes trying to bash him with my mace and he just wouldn’t die

[halcyon flame]

i forgot what he looks like (armour wise) but Im pretty sure you can just knock him and smash his face for 10 mins

too much tbf

[solar pivot]

He is regular armored but he has so much health

[halcyon flame]

no throat slitting?

[solar pivot]

His helmet blocks any throat slitting

[alpine lynx]

just headlock him silly

[halcyon flame]

headlocks are harder than me penetrating armour

slitting the neck is easier than heaedlock

[solar pivot]

The best is it just try and trip him and either bash his head with a mace again and again or get him between the tiny slits in his armor

Either way takes so long

[halcyon flame]

i usually shield bash or use a giant machete

[worn heron]

can't wait for convergence today!

[solar pivot]

So true …

[halcyon flame]

convergence?

bro what convergence is you talking about

[worn heron]

The stream of Tokyo Games Show! Check the pinned messages for the times

[smoky quail]

what even is the lore between these 2 scary spiky sticks? One looks like it was made by an actual weaponsmith with a larger tip and organized barbs, other one kinda just looks like a normal spear that someone shoved a bunch of extra barbs onto

[echo pawn]

just a goedendag

[halcyon flame]

they are like naily bats, not good, spiky, looks like a hedgehog

[polar palm]

that brings me back to my question earlier.

[halcyon flame]

are the spiky sticks good?

[polar palm]

@worn heron you kinda started the goedendag thing what's your two cents?

[smoky quail]

extremely good

[halcyon flame]

overrated

[polar palm]

against a soft target they're incredibly good

[worn heron]

Its not called a Goedendag, we found this out about last week. It's a French weapons called a Plaçon á Picot

[solar pivot]

Dutch militia men would kill any French people they met at the side of the road with spiky sticks like that

[cinder stone]

I feel silly asking but do the shoes in the abyss demo have tiers or are they all the same?

[halcyon flame]

but armour just deflects it

[worn heron]

I was mistaken when thinking it was a type of Goedendag

[cinder stone]

functionally-wise

[halcyon flame]

the same

[cinder stone]

ah

[solar pivot]

They would say goedendag and if the French person said bonjour they fucking smashed their skull

[halcyon flame]

gluten tag

👌

[solar pivot]

Pretty based if you ask me…

[cinder stone]

they make for really funny willie reactions when they run into the spikey end by themselves

[halcyon flame]

ohh

[cinder stone]

"OH NO HOW DID THIS TRAGEDY OCCUR"

[worn heron]

Indeed there is texts that say the Flemish soldiers did this. No proof, but but loose texts, like most medieval transcripts

[smoky quail]

it's heavy enough to also act like a club tho, so it also works against armored enemies

[cinder stone]

flails, ded

[worn heron]

big bonks ftw

[polar palm]

and so what? "oh this weapon isn't good because if you use it against a tank it will bounce off" like keep in mind context here people. stop powerscaling random shit.

[solar pivot]

It’s funny though, therefore it should be true

[polar palm]

thanks boss 👍

[solar pivot]

[worn heron]

big agree

[alpine lynx]

Plançon á Picot

🤓

[halcyon flame]

too long, why not use an axe, mace, or short sword, but whatever floats the boat

[worn heron]

yes, spike plank

[worn heron]

or as this translation says...

[cinder stone]

I forget, what century does the game cover?

[worn heron]

15th, 1440-1470

[cinder stone]

ah

[halcyon flame]

def before 1600s

[smoky quail]

because long heavy spiky stick is broken since it has the 2nd longest range in the game, only beaten out by the Billhooks, and even if you miss a thrust, the mini spikes can still get you a hit in

[solar pivot]

Btw that is some insane gore

[worn heron]

Have you seen the in development gore tech yet?

Check out #1279922212421505149

[halcyon flame]

much rather shield bash, jousting aint my thing

[cinder stone]

I was pondering how a french willie insulting another would sound like in 15th century french lol

[solar pivot]

Will be badass when they add that after the Tokyo festival

[alpine lynx]

why are yall obsessed with gore

[halcyon flame]

exactly

[solar pivot]

Because it’s gnarly af and cool

[alpine lynx]

edgelord

[halcyon flame]

overrated, it makes you feel cool ig when you slice the abdomen

[cinder stone]

oh! has there been a price tag for the proper game release when it's done? o:

[worn heron]

not at the moment, but we have discussed possible prices

[solar pivot]

And makes you feel like a medieval knight killing filthy peasants

[alpine lynx]

real

[cinder stone]

also even without gore I have plenty fun with how the enemies react in the playtest

[worn heron]

Likely gonna end up in the 20-30 range

[cinder stone]

it may not be gory but it's still plenty violent

[cinder stone]

cool!

[worn heron]

Yeah like watch this shit

Actually shocked me
https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iK3aThDuVPCGVzFOK/spok?invite=cr-MSxTdmgsMjAxMzQ4MTMyLA

I took away all of his motor functions

[polar palm]

to me it's just ooga booga monkey brain like the thunk of man falling over

[worn heron]

bro couldn't even scream or beg poor Willie

[alpine lynx]

that happens when you use the handle thing of a spear

a few break sounds play and you win

[worn heron]

Yeah but I've never seen a single hit halt Willie's entire motor functions including screaming 😱

I sent it to galaxy and even he was shocked lol

[cinder stone]

hell it reminds me a bit of goldeneye, sorta https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzqXZiKVu-4

like even if the blood was removed in goldeneye the death animations would still be pretty hardcore

[alpine lynx]

yeah he shuts up too

try the long candlestick in spoilance it does that easily

[halcyon flame]

hey guys, if youre gonna slice someone, always go for abdomen, back, armpits, shins, neck. best way to kill in this game

[worn heron]

Well that just murders them I don't know if that counts..

[worn heron]

[cinder stone]

and considering that this game had (early) mocap for its animations, it's a testament to the quality of half-sword's own animations

[trail nacelle]

Dropping weapons and throwing hands with the willies is fun turns into a wrestling match on brave last stand.

[severe seal]

he was probably having issues breathing beacuse you literally ykno

fucking disabled every part of his body

[halcyon flame]

willie live, or will he die?

[cinder stone]

mace, face

good way to end a fight quickly

especially with the spikey maces

[halcyon flame]

stab n scab is the way to go

[trail nacelle]

Willie is banished from death. Each time he falls five more willies spawn

[native wolf]

do we have any idea how long after showcase we can expect an update?

[cinder stone]

mace, throat also works pretty well

[trail nacelle]

Late November or early December is my edjimicated guess. Otherwise next year some time.

[alpine lynx]

false...

[cinder stone]

😮

[trail nacelle]

It was a guess.

[native wolf]

This makes me exceedingly joyful thanks

[halcyon flame]

greatsword headlock on armour right?

[cinder stone]

the great sword's the giant sword you can't sheathe right? that's a decent one too

[worn heron]

[halcyon flame]

huh? you can sheath everything that doesnt have a long wood pole

willie

a rock

a chair

[worn heron]

nah you can't sheath the greatsword

[severe seal]

WHERE YOU GOING!

[worn heron]

That would break your wrist if you tried to pull that off your back

[halcyon flame]

dang pls show me it

[trail nacelle]

You can sheath the greatsword in another Willie

[worn heron]

I would if I was on, I just woke up

[cinder stone]

it's gonna sound morbid but I kinda wish it was possible to sacrifice an inventory slot to carry a dead willie's head, especially if it added a psychological aspect to the enemy ai and made them scared easier or something

[worn heron]

You just drop it if you try to sheathe it

[severe seal]

boy why you so i just woke up 😭

[halcyon flame]

bro i swear i sheethed it

[worn heron]

I think we all have wanted this once or twice

[severe seal]

its just excuses fr

[halcyon flame]

bro ima see if i can sheeth it

[cinder stone]

yessss, I was so disappointed when I started running away holding a head and then poof, it disappeared

[worn heron]

you probably had one of the larger longswords, the greatsword is a bit larger

[severe seal]

we need the option to literally sheath every single thing

[alpine lynx]

intestines as a whip when

[cinder stone]

the great sword is what the fully armored 5th boss is wielding

[worn heron]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1234992989080780870/1252942665142501407/gag.gif

[halcyon flame]

does the hilt have a ball or circle?

[worn heron]

There's a couple different styles Im pretty sure. At least in the playtest

There's one with a ball, last one I used. Bright gold hilt

Very thick blade

[halcyon flame]

yeah even in the demo, i can hilt most swords

thick balde?

OH YOU MEAN A GIANT MACHETE?

[worn heron]

Yeah in the demo you don't get the greatsword till the 5th boss

[severe seal]

i did something to willie

[worn heron]

No you're thinking of the falchions

[cinder stone]

y'know, there's something I've watched about that; turns out that intestines don't just hang out like sausages and are held together by tissue and stuff, so instead of the guts flying out like that they're more likely to just push out of a sufficient gut wound, ripping the flesh in the process, and appear as mostly one single mass

doctor mike taught me this

[alpine lynx]

i knew that before yeah

[cinder stone]

o

[idle crane]

Hello blueb. I thought you could sheathe it

[worn heron]

they need something more to distinguish the greatsword, as it's just "a bigger sword" ATM lol. The way you hold it in the loading screen would be nice

[halcyon flame]

is this it?

[worn heron]

not the greatsword no,

[cinder stone]

is that a secondary grip?

[idle crane]

Sad

[alpine lynx]

funny thing is i also learned it from that guy i think

[severe seal]

barbute gameplay is peak

[alpine lynx]

from a video

[cinder stone]

lol

[alpine lynx]

third person supremacy

[halcyon flame]

do you mean that sword from berserk?

[worn heron]

I wish they had that kinda greatsword in the game. Those spikes on the blade are called the "ricasso", and they were made to halfsword and stab, but they were developed in the 16th centur-

You bastard

regular sword

[severe seal]

its big but its also big

[worn heron]

yeah it's not absurdly large, it's just a thick blade that needs two hands to use effectively

due to its weight

[dusky drift]

I just got here, what is happening and why is it so big🧍‍♂️

[worn heron]

sord

[severe seal]

its big but not bigger than the amount of people asking for gore

Typically knights that carried these back in the day, had little Squire boys called swordhands who would follow them around, and their only job was to carry their big ass sword or polearm around

[halcyon flame]

bruh ok

yeah they were those kinda people

"carry my shit, little man"

[halcyon flame]

lol

ok i dont get it

[worn heron]

[worn heron]

[halcyon flame]

yeah i did

[worn heron]

[polar palm]

it would be fun ass hell. i get to travel around and the only cost is carrying shit and handing big boss a sword now and then?

[worn heron]

Its only available in the very top class in the playtest, fyi

[halcyon flame]

should i end my 10000 streak to show you a recording i suspect of me sheething the great sword?

[worn heron]

In the demo, you get it from the 5th boss

[halcyon flame]

what colour is he?

[worn heron]

nah, do whatcha wanna do man

[halcyon flame]

they are colour coded and thats all i know of their weaponry

[worn heron]

I'm pretty sure he's got two red goons with him, and he's heavily armoured

[halcyon flame]

oh the red trio

[worn heron]

he's got a large sword, and his teammates got hammers I think

Yee

[smoky quail]

round starts
enemy runs at me
gets smacked in the neck
already on the ground flailing around
somehow get spear jabbed into my knee
I die before he does after getting his neck smacked by a Vogue

[halcyon flame]

OH THE GREATSWORD!

[halcyon flame]

Are you looking for brave stand or spoilance specifically?

They only pop up in certain classes

[native wolf]

Yeah I know just wondering if there isnt some dev console or sothing I don't know about to change it. Thank you tho. And yeah I just want to play brave stand its fun mogging peasents while I'm fully armoured.

[worn heron]

No worries! Yeah brave stand only pops up in the top 2 armoured classes I think. It might show up in the third from the top, but I'm not certain.

thats just a longer sword, powerless told me its bigger, and i quote "big big"

it gave me the impression that the sword had a wider build

[gaunt sigil]

Bro I am proving your point

[halcyon flame]

yeah ik

[worn heron]

[gaunt sigil]

That is literally named a "great" sword

because tall

Like T A L L

[halcyon flame]

just telling powerless THAT ITS TALLER NOT A 6 PACK BIG BOX OF BEER

[worn heron]

bro

[floral birch]

i thought it was because its like really good

[worn heron]

high school beef

[severe seal]

no its big big stupid

[floral birch]

like a great sword

[gaunt sigil]

I don't think high schools beef is about swords

[storm osprey]

They say, I have the biggest, bestest swords....

[worn heron]

you two are fishing for a mute at this point

[halcyon flame]

BIGGER MEANS WIDER, LONGER, BIGGER. SCALED UP. NOT LONGER

[idle crane]

Sword definitions are made up anyway. Medieval people didnt care about naming that much

they just called anything anything

[gaunt sigil]

Uh you just said longer twice

[worn heron]

they whine back and forth about pointless babble

[halcyon flame]

big big my ass if it's wider, not just tall

[worn heron]

No difference

[severe seal]

im not even being serious lmao im just saying its big big

[gaunt sigil]

Wait I'm confused now

[storm osprey]

por que?

[idle crane]

Where is militus to share clips when you need him

[storm osprey]

no hablo ingles

[gaunt sigil]

Who is saying what in this?

[floral birch]

I WANNA YELL TOO

[halcyon flame]

IM A DEFECTIVE MIND, DO YOU NOT HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TO DESCIBE A BLADE? mb for getting it wrong btw

[worn heron]

at this point, I am going to start dishing out mutes for this pathetic argument if you don't drop it

[gaunt sigil]

Who are you talking to because I can't keep track of this

[fleet stump]

they got 1 v 1 to work smoothly

[worn heron]

Not you, don't worry

[floral birch]

ME?

[gaunt sigil]

ok :)

[storm osprey]

holy guacamole

[worn heron]

finally something worthy

[halcyon flame]

i dropped it on mazdas porch, mb for being too disabled to understand that monkey

[tough yew]

is this frank enjoying his own game!

[fleet stump]

aye

[storm osprey]

what is that fit

[severe seal]

franky had enough so he had to put the no gore screen

[worn heron]

he's dripping out the wazoo

[tough yew]

average infantry swiss guy from the 15th century

[floral birch]

yessir he dripping

[idle crane]

If you cant enjoy your own game your not making a good game.

[worn heron]

/rob @idle crane

[storm osprey]

if you cant hate your own game youre not making a bad game

[worn heron]

[idle crane]

all my money is in my bank you have nothing to rob

[floral birch]

i think i have an addiction, i discovered this game yesterday and steam says i have 10 hours in the demo and 6 hours in the play test

[worn heron]

[storm osprey]

youll end up just like me

[tropic hawk]

half sword on a controller is crazy

[storm osprey]

congraturations

[fleet stump]

Controls for game pad are apparently very satisfying

[worn heron]

Das how one splits a screen

[worn heron]

Did they manage to add the missing keybinds, do you know?

[idle crane]

I got 111 hours on playtest and 51 hours on demo

[idle crane]

good question

[storm osprey]

i bet its satisfying using the joysticks to swing, more so than on mouse

[tough yew]

I wouldn't doubt that they did. pretty silly not being able to use the alt guard on the demo

[main vector]

i got a fatal error an hour in the demo

[worn heron]

[tough yew]

pretty common in the demo, sadly

[main vector]

any idea on how much the game is gonna cost on release?

looking to buy it

[storm osprey]

six hundred pesos

[worn heron]

Undetermined at this point

[floral birch]

its just so good, like at first you just hack and slash randomly, and then you discover you can actually shield bash to create an opening for a good axe hit, it just so satisfying

[worn heron]

but it'll be worth it, that much will be sure
