[remote crypt]

Honestly

I can understand that

its nice to do at times to confuse the AI too

[elfin frigate]

thats how i always play longsword. i've got pretty good at finding the right angle to swing to do the quickest possible flick to get your sword out and back as far/fast as possible. really helps test your range too if you're not 100% confident you can land a hit anyway

[remote crypt]

true true

I tend to turn failed strikes into feints

[elfin frigate]

lol how do you do that?

[remote crypt]

by not completing the swing

[elfin frigate]

oh gotcha

[remote crypt]

Heading to bed but its super important to always be able to defend after a strike

[fast bramble]

Feints mess with Willie a lot

[elfin frigate]

i tend to overcommit way too often when i try to actually go in for a clean hit

[remote crypt]

I struggle w/ it at the moment

[wind charm]

I struggle with nothing.

https://tenor.com/view/red-aura-shanks-gif-15239642149115408408

[elfin frigate]

another benefit of those "feeler strikes" is when they somehow happen to slip through their guard they look insanely badass

i was practicing trying to do the quickest full range flick i could and one slipped right past a buckler and the very tip of the sword caught his throat. was the sickest kill ive seen and i didnt even do it on purpose

[crude flower]

If he existed today he'd be rebelling lol

[rotund hare]

can crossbows pierce knight armor?

in irl

[woven nexus]

No

A well made well maintained piece of armor itll glance right off of

It has chance to go thru chainmail

But never plate

[wind charm]

Yes, I haven't cleaned or repaired my armour and there is an arrow poking my appendix right now

[whole parrot]

Depends with what arrow and what crossbow

[woven nexus]

^^ thats true

Certain arrows have much higher penetration chance than others

[whole parrot]

I've seen a modern crossbow penetrate the metal riot shields the russian police use

[rotund hare]

Im just wondering how it would play out if they added them to the game

[whole parrot]

Well if willie was equipped with a modern crossbow

Sure he'd penetrate armor

[woven nexus]

^^ at very close range, bolts did have the chance of penetrating armor

Same with longbows

[neon mantle]

I got baited by a halfsword notification

[wind charm]

I was hyped too, we got a wip :D

[neon mantle]

We did and as much as I love how atmospheric the music is, it isn't what I was hoping for

[ivory root]

It depends.

[fringe hound]

I just dropping my sigma TEST edit

[still rose]

I LOVE gore update omg

[hollow mauve]

I have a dump question, what is the physics engine half sword using?

[wispy bobcat]

[fringe cape]

gore update here is crazy

gone now everyone you missed it

dang

[ivory root]

We spread a little misinformation

[still rose]

love to see it

[light storm]

[crude egret]

Hi guys. Loved the demo and im excited to be playing the playtest now (cant wait for blood to be added)

one issue im having is spears

how the heck do i wield them

like how do i do the poking motion lol

[heavy pagoda]

Double click and on the second click hold, it does a stab

[crude egret]

ahh thank you! i couldnt figure it out. So far my stragegy has just been to run at them with the spiky bit lol

[heavy pagoda]

That also works 😭

[crude egret]

lol

[dawn sparrow]

and as an alternative to double click you can hold left alt and use your mouse to thrust. Gives you a bit more control of your attacks. I use double click thrust for charges only

[crude egret]

oh damn

yeah i see that

I'll give it a try!

oooh yeah thats way better at stabbing

[dawn sparrow]

indeed

[crude egret]

That big spiky pole is the bane of my existence

[heavy pagoda]

Plancon?

[crude egret]

Im not familiar with the names sadly but yeah its the one that is a giant pole with big spikes portruding from everywhere lol

[dawn sparrow]

I enjoy this weapon actually

[crude egret]

yeah that one

oh no dont get me wrong. I enjoy USING it lol

being on the other side of it sucks though hah

[heavy pagoda]

A very scary weapon

I scream when it is swung at me

[crude egret]

understandable

[dawn sparrow]

true. you have to be faster while fighting against it

[crude egret]

Its hard not to get hit by a single spike

[heavy pagoda]

Spikey stick beats all weapons

[dawn sparrow]

little bonus: fishing with friends

[crude egret]

thats honestly my only "problem" when im using it

[heavy pagoda]

Guy looks like a bug caught in spider webs

[crude egret]

it keeps getting stuck on the enemies lol

[dawn sparrow]

yeah, it's the one that likes to get stuck

I actually really enjoy weapons that are getting stuck in a body

[heavy pagoda]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hide-sợ-gif-18059060

[crude egret]

me too lol

that's why spears are cool

I hope they add a flail

swing swong bonk

[dawn sparrow]

he never expected that, looks like he lost his glasses and tried to find them after being hit

[heavy pagoda]

When did they add Velma to halfsword

Got hit and went "jinkies"

[crude egret]

the "stun" mechanic is honestly so awesome

[heavy pagoda]

Y'all are making me wanna play when i swore i wasnt getting on my pc today

[dawn sparrow]

I love that the devs improved vertical strikes to the point of pure satisfaction when landed comparing to the demo version

[heavy pagoda]

I LOVE the dust particles, to me its more brutal than blood

Lot more impact

[crude egret]

i like this bonk stick

[heavy pagoda]

Very good bonking stick

[dawn sparrow]

ah yes, the rubber stamp bonker

[heavy pagoda]

When you get a good bonk off with a single handed mace too?

https://tenor.com/view/chefs-kiss-french-chef-perfect-dish-excellent-food-perfection-gif-20341505

Especially from a backhand

[dawn sparrow]

flying helmets and hats

[heavy pagoda]

I hope they add armour dent physics

Not like deep dents but realistic levels of dent

[languid nest]

That weapon manipulation was insane

You had more control than him

[dawn sparrow]

yeah it's been suggested before, we all want the best realism, so who knows, maybe in future?

[open kindle]

Remove helmet and fucking yeet that shit

[crude egret]

Im just trying out the new steam recording stuff and im hoping i did this right lol'

[open kindle]

Steam recording?

[crude egret]

Looks like i did

[open kindle]

Bonked

[heavy pagoda]

If you dent a helmet, it causes a stronger stun

[dawn sparrow]

cheers, no game gives such satisfaction when doing something cool and precise than Half Sword

[crude egret]

I like how i just grazed him but it was enough to make him pass out

[crude egret]

yeah the overlay has its own recording feature now

its pretty sweet

Its a little confusing for someone who hasn't fucked with editing before but looks like i nailed it

[dawn sparrow]

yeah it works out, well done

[heavy pagoda]

Only took them since the release of steam 🤣

[dawn sparrow]

I use my geforce thingy anyways but have to give the steam one a try

[crude egret]

works like a charm

[dawn sparrow]

the cropping part takes a bit of work away because I used simple Windows cropping feature to my clips and suddenly they are coming out very blurry and bright and such, tried to find solution over the internet and tried all the stuff but without effect. Like this:

ah willie and his deflecting the stool throws

[languid nest]

Looking back, Willie has way stronger wrists now

[dawn sparrow]

and much less wonky movement, he's more fluid, true

still, I really love the demo

[languid nest]

It’s very impressive

[heavy pagoda]

Yeah he feels like he has control over his joints now

[crude egret]

I think i broke his arm

[heavy pagoda]

"Eggard!"

[dawn sparrow]

I think you did

[heavy pagoda]

That last bonk was just disrespectful

[crude egret]

He had it coming

[languid nest]

You get a lot of blunt head kos

[languid nest]

Watching it back it seems you didn’t hit with blade, you hit him in the neck really hard. That’s much more brutal.

[crude egret]

BONK

[dawn sparrow]

I guess the weight of the impact did it's job well done 😄

[dawn sparrow]

I was waiting for overhead clip from you with that weapon and I got it 👍

[heavy pagoda]

Crushed windpipe

[crude egret]

I just got hugged to death 😭

[heavy pagoda]

I love how hes swinging into the back of your head 🤣

[crude egret]

Love hurts 😔

no more bleached clips

[dawn sparrow]

bloody Windows and their updates that ruin everything. ig that will do the trick, thanks

windows when they release an update that breaks basic, fundamental features

Me when im in a being impatient competition and my opponent plays half sword

[wooden socket]

Gore will come eventually when its ready

[heavy pagoda]

idk why gore is so needed for people. the combats already brutal

[dawn sparrow]

[restive garnet]

the fatal hits and critical hits will have RDR2 style bleedouts.

[dawn sparrow]

the new blood leaks looks fire, not gonna lie

[heavy pagoda]

thats cool

[dawn sparrow]

so will the game be as much realistic that the blood will will extinguish the candle?

[robust hedge]

I'm gonna be honest

if this game could get good VR support

it might be up there with B&S 🤷

[jolly gorge]

real

i only play that for one

the mods

and two

the boxing

[robust hedge]

I play it so I can be grr man sword

but I want Half Sword VR because it could be a more realistic swordfighting vr game

and the gore mechanics are... amazing?

[shy pulsar]

yo

[robust hedge]

the best and most detailed gore i've seen... ever?

atleast since my liveleak days

has anyone managed to mod Demo gore into playtest?

or do we have to wait patiently like god intended

wait patiently

Demo gore is incompatible which is why they are reworking it in the first place

im excited for gore

because I dont know whether people are dead when i hit them

I just slit a guys throat

I think

he didnt make any noise so i dont know

[robust hedge]

now

[pure shell]

im really excited for this game to be finished

[robust hedge]

we've been saying soon for 5 months

[lone crater]

gonna cum when GORE

[dawn sparrow]

you can complain and be impatient but it won't change anything. you will get a free update when it's ready. we all wait for it. simple as that

[robust hedge]

maybe i will

[pure shell]

real

[lone crater]

don't be rude and be patient. the devs don't owe you shit and we ought to be priviliged for the fact that the devs let us take a VERY deep peek into their development for free with the demo and the playtest. stfu.

[robust hedge]

I do realize this, I may be an idiot but I am not a moron

[lone crater]

will you take me by the hand?

you might just be both

[robust hedge]

Nope

nope I got tested for that one

they said im an idiot

but not a moron

[lone crater]

let's agree to disagree

[robust hedge]

atleast im real 🤷

[lone crater]

at least i'm relevant

[robust hedge]

I mean

[snow gulch]

Jesus is widely agreed to of existed at one point even if you dont think he is who he says he is lol

[robust hedge]

thats debatable, on your side atleast not mine, im irrelevant

[lone crater]

thank you

[robust hedge]

I mean, he existed yea

I don't doubt that he existed

[snow gulch]

are you Christian?

[lone crater]

yeah i don't believe in christianity in any way shape or form and consider myself an atheist

[snow gulch]

oh lol

[robust hedge]

but did he exist in the same capacity from which he is said to have?

[pure shell]

lead you to the land

[lone crater]

but this guy is making some wild statements

[robust hedge]

damn right i am

[lone crater]

get the doctor to do a rediagnosis cause they misplaced a few screws when they made you

[snow gulch]

i believe he did, but i digress, not the time nor place. all i know is that with how much documentation there is on Jesus something had to of happened with him for it

but back to halfsword!!!!!!!!

[lone crater]

yes

[snow gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/watch-yo-tone-blade-and-sorcery-thor-hammer-flying-gif-2273440863141883562

[lone crater]

this is no place for religion this is the place for GORE

[robust hedge]

thats not very kind 😕

[lone crater]

i mean you aren't particularly respectful to the devs so

anyways

get your patience in check and come back later

we cool? we cool.

[robust hedge]

Ehh, im more just twisting my excitement than being genuinely impatient 🤷

i'd prefer the gore to come out in a state of quality

than just being plopped out

[snow gulch]

i do see where you're coming from with the impatience, just gotta remember as of now the devs arent being paid and they're wanting to make it as good as possible

[robust hedge]

they what 💀

[snow gulch]

i dont think so right??

cause like game isnt out

its free as of now

[robust hedge]

i thought there was a kickstarter?!

[lone crater]

well they are being funded

since they have a publisher in game seer

[snow gulch]

wouldnt that be moreso for funding the game rather than money for themselves

[lone crater]

and there is no kickstarter fyi

[snow gulch]

i digress i dont know anything lol

[soft osprey]

They’re an official company now, half sword games. I’m positive they’re getting paid, probably through game seer

[snow gulch]

ah fair enough

[idle crane]

Game seer is paying them

[robust hedge]

Well I may be a moron, but isnt the main cost of game development the employees?

[snow gulch]

turns out i was dead wrong 😭

(and the development tools)

https://tenor.com/view/speed-i-am-speed-lightning-mcqueen-cars-meme-gif-14031708

i'd be willing to pay upwards of 40 bucks

[snow gulch]

when i was actually still playing the game i managed to consistently get slices to the throat in duels which was fun

[snow gulch]

true, but anywhere works fine. just want dramatic finishes lol

[robust hedge]

I was mortified when I saw Manor Lords was 40 dollars for early access

I mean I still bought it

[snow gulch]

gonna hop back into hs just to scratch that itch for B&S cause i dont have access to my headset rn lol

[lone crater]

B&s?

[snow gulch]

blade and sorcery, vr game

[fringe cape]

blade & sorcery

[lone crater]

Ah damn that game makes me wish i had a vr headset but alas i am a student

[fringe cape]

I'm just a freak that gets adrenaline rushes from seeing blood, real or fake. So I mean take all the time they need.

[snow gulch]

yeah so i dont think thats normal 😭

admittedly though sometimes it feels good to see blood splatter in game

[robust hedge]

thats not normal

[fringe cape]

Who said it was?

[robust hedge]

OHHH the satisfaction i get from getting one of those lethal shots in rdr2

[fringe cape]

I freak a little

[robust hedge]

watching the innocent civilians run around screaming with a trail of blood

[fleet heron]

someone come get their cornball

do you punch metal for fun

[snow gulch]

the satisfaction of blowing someones brains out in cyberpunk while they're on the ground

its brutal

[fringe cape]

I was that kid, yess

[fleet heron]

well well well

[robust hedge]

The satisfaction of a clean knockout against a knight with a blunt weapon in HS

[snow gulch]

omg yes

the sound and how it feels is so satisfying

[robust hedge]

or such a clean cut with an axe or a sword you dont even realize you did it untill yo usee them fall over and bleed

[snow gulch]

lmao

[robust hedge]

I did that once in the demo it was so peak

[fringe cape]

at least im not galaxyhighmarshall that makes blood mods for the most obscure games that nobody asked for .....

[fleet heron]

im not tapped in enough to get that reference

[fringe cape]

only blood mods at that

[robust hedge]

oh my

bro is a freak

[fleet heron]

who is galaxyhighmarhsal

[fringe cape]

the graphics guy for half sword lol

[robust hedge]

[fleet heron]

[robust hedge]

BRO IS A FREAK HE HAS MADE 75 GORE MODS FOR GARRY'S MOD

[fringe cape]

RIGHT

WTF

[fleet heron]

but idk when I see blood the genghis khan in me activates and it like im ready. like a primal instinct

[pulsar ivy]

how would i attack a guy with a spear

they just hold their spear out and i cant go near them

[snow gulch]

smack it out the way or move to the side

[pulsar ivy]

how do i smack it?

just.. hit the thing with your weapon

[fast bramble]

Guys we're getting Half Sword blood update

-# eventually

[brazen cloak]

fake

there is no substance called blood

[crude shale]

Forgor this game is supposed to have gore

[honest whale]

no way

[hushed gale]

No longer soon, now it’s eventually, i guess we get gta 6 before gore

[wintry coral]

Crashed on me but overall w game

[coarse hemlock]

heat death before gore

[hushed gale]

Second coming of Christ before gore

[coarse hemlock]

second big bang before gore

[dawn sparrow]

gore before gore

[hushed gale]

The great implosion before gore

[coarse hemlock]

hmmmm

[hushed gale]

There be nothing but black matter in space before gore

[hushed gale]

If gore takes this long to come it better include every organ in the body and every tendon

Screw it let me be able to do surgery

Medieval doctor sim

[coarse hemlock]

soon...

[hushed gale]

After tgs

[dawn sparrow]

when it's done

[coarse hemlock]

soon

[crude egret]

Wow I hate using the half spear and shield

It’s the worst

[fast bramble]

Technically not wrong, we're getting gore 1.5 for free and then gore 2.0 is in early access

Scared myself for a second there, had to make sure that was something that was public knowledge after I posted it lmao

[jolly nexus]

i gave a date that gore would arrive before november 10th but i think i'm totally wrong and i'm putting a new proposal which is that gore will arrive before november 29th. that's the day I'll get my new identity card in my country

[dawn sparrow]

well we all can place our bets

[compact ferry]

what is half sword even about

[soft osprey]

Before Christmas, after November

[royal arch]

Tomorrow my guy. It was revealed to me in a dream

[jolly nexus]

i hope it's not on christmas day because i'll be on the beach and away from my computer for about 5 days

[compact ferry]

thx

[fast bramble]

I was surprised how accurate the AI was tbh, most of the time it just hallucinates a whole other game

[crude flower]

It's pretty awful

[robust hedge]

Dumb fucking idiot

tried to push me over and shove his sword up my backside

i tripped him over and smashed his helmet with my axe

[hushed gale]

To be safe I say gore in 2025

[sharp willow]

why is there no blood

there's a blood slider on configs but there's no blood

[sharp willow]

there could just be an option to disable blood then

the first demo had tons of blood

[soft osprey]

Sigh..you give me a headache

[sharp willow]

why is there a blood slider on configurations then

[soft osprey]

Soley to fuck with you and only you

[sharp willow]

damn

if only I knew

[soft osprey]

Demo gore, isn’t compatible with playtest

Demo was UE5

Playtest is 5.5

So gore wouldn’t even work

[sharp willow]

👍

[soft osprey]

Damn not even a compliment on the music? Bro worked hard on that stuff just to be told someone’s disappointed

Neither is gore

It really isn’t

Brother how many times you think we’ve had this discussion

Quite literally hundreds of times. People here are hema and medieval enthusiasts. Gore means little to most people here

Let me explain like for the other guy real quick

Demo gore was made for unreal engine 5

Playtest is 5.5

And another fuckin gore fiend, great.

You’re a weirdo

Go play blood trail

I just explained

You don’t listen though

[ripe meteor]

Each to their own honestly, I don’t think it’s our place to tell people what they look forward to

If they’re enjoying the game mission accomplished for the devs

[daring wasp]

gore is the main draw of this game

[soft osprey]

Jesus Christ

Y’all are a bunch of weirdos

Go play blood trail if you’re desperate for gore

[ripe meteor]

Frankly I disagree but I won’t change your mind

[soft osprey]

It’s strange to play a game just because it has gore yeah

[remote crypt]

Well from what I understand

they're doing way more than gore for the gore update

[daring wasp]

dont like gore play exanima

[remote crypt]

someone had said something about it being the last free update

[ripe meteor]

They’re adding some armour too aren’t they

[remote crypt]

I don't know

I don't have insider info

[ripe meteor]

I think I’ve heard little rumours abt it

[soft osprey]

Because gore is just a bonus. The game is a medieval combat hema fighting game. Not a gore game. Gore is there to show how brutal medieval combat was. If you’re here JUST BECAUSE the gore, yeah you’re weird

[remote crypt]

I just know someone said something, and I think they might add back demo

[daring wasp]

im excited for playtest updated demo game mode

[soft osprey]

Sigh..this is so fuckin pointless. We’ve had to have this discussion hundreds of times here since playtest.

[ripe meteor]

“immersive physics-based medieval combat simulation”

“Not a hema game”

I don’t care what you like abt the game just listen to urself rq

Yeah, gore is a part of it, but it isn’t the only part

[soft osprey]

So your arguing it’s not hema, it’s a medieval fighting game

[ripe meteor]

The main thing is the combat

[soft osprey]

Gotcha

[ripe meteor]

Otherwise they wouldn’t release the playtest without gore

[jolly gorge]

guys i have early access to blood

[ripe meteor]

woaaaaa

In development brah

[soft osprey]

Ok I’ll say this one last time cause now you’re just fucking annoying with how dumb you’re acting. Demo gore was made for unreal engine 5. Then came in rea engine 5.5, blood was no longer compatible with the game. So they have to redo it over again, better.

[daring wasp]

no gore was bc japanese game festival

[ripe meteor]

People expect the devs to push out 6 new layers of damage, entirely brand new blood tech, and bruising to the game within 4 months

Give them a break

Why would they

[soft osprey]

Ok you obviously have no idea how game development works and at this pojnt it’s clear talking to you is taking to a wall

[ripe meteor]

Well a lot of the community want a more better improved gore

[daring wasp]

yall talkin like ur gonna play the pg playtest when gore comes out

[ripe meteor]

Besides that’d take up more time on working on the actual improved gore lol

[remote crypt]

Tbh if the mechanics are better with the new update whenever that is I'd scoot over

But I'd prefer all hands on deck for game mechanics over gore being soonish.

[soft osprey]

You are absolutely stupid. I said the point of the game isn’t the gore. Your reading comprehension is in the garbage

NEWGENS I swear

[ripe meteor]

Difference between what devs want and what ppl want lol

And as a matter of fact devs are working on what the ppl want

They’re aiming for some time before December

So may be this month

[soft osprey]

Yes, I have a joke in my name. Yes, you are still a NEWGEN dummy

[ripe meteor]

Might not

Who knows

Oh come on

[soft osprey]

I mean the game shows over

[ripe meteor]

Refer to my argument abt then making all that new stuff

[soft osprey]

So there’s still time

Again, reading comprehension

Is not your strong suit huh

[ripe meteor]

Plus they never said it’d come out immedialty after

[soft osprey]

Stop don’t use logic bud

That’s too difficult to understand

[jolly gorge]

galaxies new blood is goated!!!

[soft osprey]

lol bro really thinks you gotta sit in front of a computer all day to not be a dummy

Internet culture 💀

Lmao

You’re a funny guy

[ripe meteor]

Wonder if we’ll get blood oozing out the mouth

In development

[soft osprey]

Read up and find out

[jolly gorge]

thats like getting stabbed or punched 101 im sure its getting added

[ripe meteor]

You’d be surprised how many games lack it

hell even gore 1.0 doesn’t have that iirc

[jolly gorge]

????

[soft osprey]

New gore is gonna be probably the most detailed, advanced gore system in gaming

It is absolutely insane

[ripe meteor]

well that’s a mural
I’m talking abt how the blood works ingame

[soft osprey]

And the guy didn’t even use real life references

Because they’ve been teasing it, there’s an entire WIP section

How fucking stupid can one person be

[jolly gorge]

i didnt mean that

[soft osprey]

Honestly

[jolly gorge]

the game glitched

[ripe meteor]

Considering that it’s gonna be a foundation for future gore builds, I’m gonna hold my judgements for now

[ripe meteor]

Oh shit mb lol

[jolly gorge]

your good lmao

[ripe meteor]

Now you just starting shit for no reason

[soft osprey]

I’m just annoyed that people as dumb as you seriously exist

It’s baffling

Truly

[pulsar ivy]

what are you guys arguing about

[ripe meteor]

You got Him mad just let him seethe and ignore him

[ripe meteor]

The usual

[remote crypt]

Honestly, I wouldn't be. It's life dude

[ripe meteor]

gore

[soft osprey]

I know I know. I shouldn’t be annoyed

[jolly gorge]

dayum

[soft osprey]

Seethe

“Hurdur fat”

[remote crypt]

Right so that's a bit far for most people.

[soft osprey]

Looool

What a clown

[ripe meteor]

relax dude

[remote crypt]

Maybe you sit there dropping common loot

but don't go around going wild

[jolly gorge]

i thought your pfp was a person in a purple hoodie

[remote crypt]

we're still all humans behind the screen'

[soft osprey]

Damn just like that, you managed to show everyone how dumb you are

[remote crypt]

naw, big retrowave nerd

[soft osprey]

That’s a fast turnaround.

[ripe meteor]

it’s a little funny game abt sword fighting no need for all it

[remote crypt]

^

[soft osprey]

I did I said “hurdur fat”

Because as usual, dumb asses just say the same things over and over

[remote crypt]

He's turning you into a lolcow for himself

just leave it.

[pulsar ivy]

when do i use the alt key when attacking

[jolly gorge]

i see why its pretty cool

[pulsar ivy]

i know that

[remote crypt]

You can use it to stab and/or stiffen your swingles

[soft osprey]

It’s more fun to not

[remote crypt]

its really personal preference

[devout axle]

you kinda hold it

and it moves back and forth on either side

[wise halo]

Stop talking to easter, he makes a fool out of you

[remote crypt]

That's fair. I don't think this particular battle is worth it

But that's me.

[soft osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/piccolo-piccolo-posting-piccolo-mad-piccolo-angry-piccolo-disappointed-gif-12922464662232787130

[pulsar ivy]

what does stiffening the swings do for me

[remote crypt]

Can sometimes keep you from getting parried hard

[wise halo]

https://tenor.com/view/dokkan-battle-top-uss-universe-survival-saga-tournament-of-power-gif-1005457228084955108

[remote crypt]

There's not much I can quantify in its good

[devout axle]

like hold ur weapon out like u fixing to swing and press alt

[wise halo]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1086506182090440794/1289757882153308311/moving.gif

[remote crypt]

but it feels good to use alt during swings

[devout axle]

itll snap to center

[soft osprey]

There’s minors in here you fucking weirdo

[remote crypt]

At least use innuendos like half of disney movies do

[soft osprey]

wtf am I supposed to say to that? They’re here that’s what matters

Don’t be fuckin weird

Right, 2 million downloads since playtest im sure devs are worried

Not even a beta. Just a free playtest pre alpha lmao

[ripe meteor]

Same logic as add multiplayer fanatics

[remote crypt]

Multiplayer in this game would be so funny with proximity chat

can't wait to get called slurs all day

[soft osprey]

Split screen will come for sure. Online, highly doubt

Yes split screen

Do you need a definition

[devout axle]

how would that work?

[remote crypt]

There is actually a mod for demo that adds splitscreen

[devout axle]

two mouses and keyboards hooked up or connecting the pcs

[remote crypt]

it's really neat.

[ripe meteor]

It would, but I’m personally an advocate for no multiplayer

[remote crypt]

Two controllers*

[soft osprey]

You get a friend, first step, and sit next to each other

[pulsar ivy]

easter, are you like a dev for the game? you seem to know alot about the future

[remote crypt]

Agreed

[ripe meteor]

Would add heaaaaaaps of problems

[devout axle]

okay

[remote crypt]

but it'd be funny as fuck to finally get my ass handed to me by ovrdth

[devout axle]

im following

[soft osprey]

No I’ve just been here a long time and pay attention to news for it

[ripe meteor]

Tbf when they add split screen you can probs do that with Parsec

[devout axle]

go on bro

[soft osprey]

Yeah no doubt you’ll be able to couch co op, not actually next to each other. They succeeded in split screen at the games show

So it will come to the gsme

[remote crypt]

most likely

[soft osprey]

I know more than you because I actually talk to the fuckin mods and community here. They tease shit constantly and devs talk about the game with us. I get it dude, reading comprehension is nonexistent for you, and you want to make yourself a victim here and yadda yadda quit yapping already

Don’t be

It’s a single player game first and foremost

You’re just set on disputing everything I say without actually knowing anything huh

The devs stated it MULTIPLE TIMES

are you dumb?

I said it’s single player first and foremost

Does that mean no chance of mp?

[ripe meteor]

He’s just trying to ragebait, block him man, not worth it

[soft osprey]

It’s fine, he’s genuinely stupid

[ripe meteor]

Like Andruw said some battles aren’t worth it

[soft osprey]

Again stop talking about private parts

Yes. Don’t talk about sexual things around minors. The fact you know this already and keep doing it means you’re obviously into that

And that’s fucking weird

Yes I bring up the fact kids are here so you stop talking about dicks

[pulsar ivy]

????????

[soft osprey]

You’re such a fuckin creep dude

Beyond our argument now, you’re fuckin weird

There we go you fixed it

Good job little guy

Lmaooo

This has been fun

Ty for being a freak

I’m on mobile

[pulsar ivy]

does the passive parry just by itself save me from hits or do i have to swing at the weapon

[soft osprey]

Yeah it’s 7:15pm and dark out

Weird again

First talks about sexual stuff around minors now moves onto location tracking

Very nice

[ripe meteor]

Passive parry does it by itself I think

[pulsar ivy]

alright

[ripe meteor]

But that’s a certain range it only activates at so you gotta manually parry occasionally

The dudes over at #1263248218297339915 know it better than me

[neon yacht]

jesus people are fucking weird

[ripe meteor]

so you should go check it out over there

[remote crypt]

Gotta use some footwork too

[soft osprey]

lol okok fr though Ty this has been a lot of fun. Every now and then some little dummy like you comes in and gets to be the center of attention

[neon yacht]

that works with or without the comma

[pulsar ivy]

like moving backwards?

[remote crypt]

Or sideways

[soft osprey]

“I may be dumb but I’m not an idiot” ahhh

[wintry coral]

Could help but notice in the middle of the fight does he say the n word?

[ripe meteor]

Says Eggar

[remote crypt]

The more you combine movement and technique the better you'll get imo

[wintry coral]

Kk

[remote crypt]

eggard iirc

[soft osprey]

Damnit Lester

Nobody brought that up in a while

Got a friend who’s a father of two kids at 21 and I’m like your life must be hell

[soft osprey]

Proof of what? You’re asking for his address of pictures of him and his home?

[remote crypt]

I am not a father just yet

hey daniel5904 . . . Calm down

I say again there needs to be a rage bait rule. It can be fun and all occasionally but it happens a lot

dude, they said gore is allowed, not sexual stuff, shut up already

[wintry coral]

I would say I have a nasty left hook in half sword WHY DO THEY TAKE 8 HOOKS TO KNOCK OUT ON THE GROUND

[remote crypt]

good shit

[wintry coral]

in the demo I averaged one

Maybe 2

[remote crypt]

I mean look at the "give willie a pp" threads

hey daniel5904 we people in the 21st century are meant to look at the past and go "hey maybe those guys in the 1400s werent the best at everything they did"

[soft osprey]

I’m sorry

[boreal path]

that we should not do

which is my point

[woven nexus]

;P

[boreal path]

but what you implied is considered by many to be worse

unspeakable even

[lofty lily]

make use of what you have

I don’t get why every day some weirdo comes in here and starts saying the most out of pocket shit like it’s funny

If a fucking video game brings out a bad side of you, you’re just already that awful

does the playtest have gore yet?

no

[untold crescent]

Ok back to my cave

[woven nexus]

Ur just weird.

daniel5904 the court of public opinion finds you guilty of being a weirdo

Weren’t you also just doing the same

yeah because you said "and i can cut off some bits to take home" when referring to raiding a village right after the topic shifted to women

my god dude

dawg just say sorry

it is very simple
