Chiv-style gameplay
Really gotta get back into Chiv, thanks for the reminder
😬
No
It isn't worth it bro
Thankfully i've just found out i haven't got enough space to download it
i dropped a spare torso?
Knocked him so hard that he started thinking about his decisions in life
Ow
was playing it as I I saw this lol
Dude wants to be a Jedi SO BADLY 😭
not even going to pretend I saw that coming, but a cool block nonetheless
these kids are weirdos grabbing all the tiem
I love kicking my willie

we come in swining with fist not kinifes
are these palyers or ai
the disarming features in this game is one of my favourite mechanics in gaming
Brutality
I dont get why the AI have super strength
just had a bardiche guy literally throw me 15 feet into the air after getting under my leg
Its quirks with physics usually.
I threw me hammer
How do you use first person ?
v
Anyone know if there adding multiplayer at some point ?
Thanks
its a long ways away
But confirmed ?
soft confirmed i would sya
Nice
couch co-op was demonstrated a while back apparently
What’s that
2 people on the same system
Fighting eachover ?
so not online, in person. Yes Fighting eachother
I think that it kinda has to happen, otherwise the game might fizzle out in my opinion
afaik they really want to have online multiplayer but are kinda doubtful they can do it in a way they'll be satisfied with. Splitscreen multiplayer is basically guaranteed though
ive come to make an announcement
multiplayer in physics heavy games vs animation heavy games is hugely different apparently. Supposedly the connection has to be orders of magnitude more robust and some methods of doing that are very expensive or pose serious security vulnerabilities. ig it's the reason why games like exanima still don't have online multiplayer
Yeah would definitely be difficult would love to see it
Willy blocked a headshot from a shield, One throw atleast
how do i send my video?
You can send it in https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1047194231875321856 for now. There’s a level system for permissions, just keep chatting for a while and you’ll get them soon
thanks
how do you get up faster
Ketamine

when they gonna add multiplayer? i cant wait more to beat the ass of my friend
I both love and hate this game like a bipolar
not happening for awhile
but if your looking for something out right now there is gladio mori it just has more complex controls and isnt free
exanima is better
just play that though
thats not the point, he was asking for a game like halfsword but multiplayer
examina is peak though
I get you were answering him I was just adhd'ing a lil
Very nice!
How in game can a enter the boss fights mode? Is that gamemode available in the demo?
tip and tutorial vid was amazing, i may be getting better at strikes
❤️ thank you
Looks great, still very chiv coded but I mean it works 
i mean there is one solution..... https://github.com/massclown/HalfSwordSplitScreenMod
gonna try out demo again after 18 hours on playtest
F
the game doesnt even launch anymore what 😭
fr??
ive played it before but it only works with demo
no virusv
and you will havbe to use parsec, or steamremote play everything
no virus its made by massclown
he also made trainer mod
go to #modders-guild-hall to learn more
it have delay?
as much as your internet has
it should be p2p but idk
ty friend❤️
As the host it’ll be ok for you but for anyone connecting to the host it’ll be kinda unplayable
not true
only if you havbe bad interent or connection issues
if you set it up correctly and you and your freind are in the same country/region and have good wifi you guys should be fine
like all online games
it is hard on the pc though
it does work though one time i played with my freind and i cut him up and picked him up and carried him like a briefcase
Lawlz
Does anyone know if they plan to make this game go to console
not right away
Thank you
yooooo that was wicked cool
poor willie is gonna eat wood
no grabbin me lol
Yooooo
The Rat is back
the square goes in the square hole

shot a ton of arrows at him
that was rad as fuck
How’d u get arrows-
yeah im on the playtest
Any idea why my game crashes and says fatal error
no, sorry man
Specifically a left hook
maybe put it in feedback
Alr your good thanks tho
How do I that?
wait nvm
you already have a post in playtesting that works
I’m trying something rq if that doesn’t work I’ll jst view the integrity of files
Wym
I got idea
go to your settings and change directx to the one with 11 at the end
see if it works idk
With gauntlets?
What if you could use that one sword technique where you hold the sword by the blade like a pick axe by pressing m2 then double clicking m1
Common bug, no fix for it
I don’t think
Well start thinking!
Just give him two right hands I’m sure it’ll work
weird never had issues with gauntlets
Trying it rn
It doesn’t always happen but it’s frequent enough I’d say it’s pretty common. It’s specifically punching with gauntlets
Though that’s a fix for a lot of crashes it won’t fix the punch crash
Would me changing my character help or
Just don’t box with gauntlets
Alr
is it only a certain tier of gauntlets are is it all
the power of alt punch
Afaik it’s just any gauntlet, though more specially on a big hit
guess im just lucky
good work Silly Head
Axes should be able to cut into armour a little
arming sword and buckler is kinda fun
Mordhau should definitely be added
Honestly special holds for some weapons would be great
guys
do you think there will be an update as big as blood update
i love this weapon combo i can't believe i avoided it for so long
Update to the playtest? Probably not, supposedly they’re considering one more update before they do the early access release but I think I remember them saying it wouldn’t be too big an update if any update at all
is early access gonna be free tho?
Hotel you should try out buckler and arming sword its so fun
the slashes are nice and the little jabs you can do are also quite fun
I’ve heard rumors that it won’t be but I don’t remember hearing anything from a good source
oh thx
I like how the jab is more protected, cool stuff
im dying most of these rounds but is still pretty fun
Same for me with any new weapon lol
As long as you don’t become a door shield user I think I can forgive you
Love the shield punches with that shield
they are kinda hard to do but when they work it is amazing yeah
Door shield is funny tbh.
he is so blue : )
Clean fit damn
gooberish
Its literally the WORST shield because of how much protection you get. It's detrimental to most attack vectors.
i love this loadout
That’s exactly why I hate it, as a polehammer guy most doorshield Willie fights are simultaneously boring and take so long 
They cramp my mojo without being a challenge
hotel what do you think about this shield ?
Personally I don’t use shields, I’m more a fan of long swords, but when I do use them I typically go for either the buckle or punch shield when applicable
i love longswords but lately (as in the last like hour) i've been on a bit of a shield binge
i always kinda looked down on them but they are insanely useful
Aye I agree, they’re most certainly useful, but I’ve gotten better at parrying and blocking with just one weapon, however I will indulge in a bit of bloody shield to hand combat
Tasteful colors and pattern
i think if i had gauntlets and maybe some shoulder protection this would be absolutely busted
cause like the only part of me that gets hit is my hands and sometimes shoulder
Looks like an outfit blueberry would be proud of
i've been meaning to ask you this so im gonna before i forget, is there any way to preserve color? or did you just kinda brute force it like i did for the 🟦 lad?
for the pole hammer lad you showed off in vc
the method i use rn is to just keep saving over and over again with different pants until i get right colors
and then deleting the ones i dont want
Mostly brute forcing but there’s a weird jank to the color coordination I’m still figuring out. You can kinda nudge it in certain directions but I don’t fully understand how yet
i think i might try to get brute force staying blue and getting some shoulder armor and gauntlets
i wanna see how op it becomes
cause like the only areas of me that can get hit are my shoulders and hands, sometimes head so i might need a helmet also
behold
this is a nice shield
it is big enough that it protects me while still being small enough that i can attack without it getting in way
yes
i think i might enjoy this build more than i enjoy using longswords
I wish the blood spatter had collision so you could get your enemies blood on you and vice versa
i believe this is a thing with higher graphics. on dx12
i saw a video about a month ago where a guy had willie ontop of him and willies blood was pouring from his neck onto the guys face
In my experience I've never seen it occur, I could be wrong though
behold (2)
is there a way to make custom loadouts or is that not a thing yet?
either graphics or quality of life mod
OVRDTHs loadout mod
ok thanks
I shaved his face off
so why is it that the game will kill me before i die
i will be standing tall but wounded and then it bullshits me with the death screen
i stay on the screen and my character is still standing
dont get hit?
not a hard game
fore you
just tested it out, tower shield fucking sucks
like oh my god that thing is awful
its funny
i had a fight with me and the willie having tower shields
fight was literally like 3 minutes long
just me and him wacking eachother's shield and hoping for the best
the should would be kinda nice if it had like twice the weight
f u n n y
it like twirls around if it gets hit at the very top or bottom
it is fucking huge yet feels like it weighs maybe a pound
Watch Sass is necessary and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
So what's with in the controls menu the x2 RMB for thrust when it seems to do nothing
my boys
That's mixed up for some reason lol, its LMB that you're supposed to double click. There's a couple options to stab. You can double click, or you can use alt/click and move your mouse.
Here's this
When stabbing with alt (with swords), pull your weapon in closer to your body as opposed to extending your elbow out. It's much more accurate and stable.
Alternatively If it's a two handed weapon it is recommended to hold right click first, then drag your mouse to aim the weapon. Then from there double click and hold left mouse (you can try alt a little as well but clicking is more stable)
This is a much more stable and accurate stabbing pose, and a proper halfsword thrusting stance.
To practice your aiming, there's two different ways you can keep your FOV.
Third Person- with Low FOV, so you get a closer view.
or alternatively;
First Person- with High FOV, so you get a wide view of your weapon and it's positioning.
-# note, this works best for polearms or two handed swords
[Watch This Clip to see it in action!](#game-footage-🎮🎥 message)
blueberry do you like my blue boys?
right now im trying to brute force this guy into being fully blue
cause when you save them they change color
so i just keep saving over and over until i get a full blue boy
any tricks for getting unstuck a sword in the void?
I smashed a head against the fence
i really like the bevor plus kettle helm
Oh thanks i have been finding the alt click method to be a bit difficult to use and was confused by the double RMB I'll give it a try when I get home thanks
No worries! I find better success with alt personally when you disable lock-on with F. When Lockon is enabled, it will pull your stabs more center mass towards the enemies waist.
It's best to tap F briefly in between when you're going for stabs, imo
Wuh
trying to get all blue
i know it is possible because i had it before i saved but like
its been about 30 minutes of just loading, equipping new pants, saving and repeating
i dont understand why it is that literally none of the mods that let you make custom outfits are able to save color
its absolutely insane
I got so many good clips today I made a small little comp lol
Shameless repost
would love to see a hand cannon in this game (like how kingdom come deliverance 2 did it) i think it would work if it locked onto your enemy instead of having to aim it though. (this has probably been suggested many times, that’s why im not putting it in the suggestions channel.)
Like stuck in the sheath?
If it’s stuck in the ground, its genuinely lost at that point
yeah died anyway
I wanna thank u guys for ruining gore / sword fighting in any other game for me 👍🏻
Sometimes you can your arm unstuck by switching hands but sometimes you’re just doomed
Real, no hate but animation based slashers feel so weightless to me now

cheers man
And this with a keyboard, imagine the crazy ass moves you'll be able to pull off with an actual controller once the game gets proper controller support.
They got murdelated
I've used it without issue, the source code is there and no one else has reported anything wrong with it

The Scythe is a good weapon. So far, could only go to 2,5k points in the Abyss.
That is if I could beat the Scythe wielder in a timely fashion
Is this all AI or pvp?

Finding this a really nice way to thrust (i try to use this in the first move)
Can’t explain how satisfying a clean cut is
what do you do?
i wanna try it
Just half sword then go to the side and then half-sword again and move your mouse to the right or up
Wanted to put this in the "i kinda wanna learn some" thread since i said i have a couple tactics and stuffs of my own i'd like to share

First clip. It feels like sex
Its a jousting shield imo. Very good.
To me. Perfect coverage and its mechanics as a strap over a buckler good af.
i will try it out
Ive used knife/shield. Sword/shield
i really like the one i use
Both get value even in low armor
it covers almost all of you with basically zero effort
Ik. Its a good one. Did u know if you swap hands it becomes a punch shield?
Instead of a strap
it paired with a helmet, shoulder protection and some like greaves makes you almost untouchable
I raise you. Mace.
this lil guy?
Ye
so how do i use it
i know that is a stupid question but like
i have no idea how to use this thing 💀
Feeling butcherous
this shield is a weird little guy
andruw this shield is gooberish
i give it like 7/10, second favorite shield
Its fun
Head empty moment.

This was in the Demo game files. Anyone have any idea?
my brain is a tool that i don't like using
Is there any chance the game will be in the quest vr someday?
this games too addictive
I've been playing it for like 3 hours straight and I didnt even realize
Tower is funny
Its best thrusting around and planting it down on the ground
Try running the tower and planting it in the ground. Stab and slash around it.

Dang
about a foot above it
maybe a little more, but it is like and a really weird angle leaving my upper torso exposed
damn after 3+ hours of playing i finally got a Fatal error and the game crashed randomly 😦
Ty willie.
the best way to fight with it is to simply drop it
Incorrect. Thats only with 1h spear. Holster that puppy on your back.
Holstering a shield creates armor essentially.
A buckler on your side can stop a fatal blow.
Same with a shield on the back.
I have tested it.
I'm such a goober on discord tbh.

i use the trainer mod on github and ovrdth's selector on nexus, you use trainer to spawn items in, equip them and then press ctrl L and then immediately open ovrdth's and save it in there, just don't get used to the colors you have because it doesn't save them for some reason. there are guides to install them on youtube and also prolly in #modders-guild-hall

you'll learn easily dont worry it took me an hour to lmfao
it depends from person to person's understanding and learning capability but i'd say im pretty gifted
Ok so I've literally a "lore" for the game thanks to my playthroughs
The main two houses are the Longswords and the Spikes. The Longswords notoriously use the longsword, while the spikes use that pike with a shitton of spikes or nails or whatever. These two houses hate each other, but are otherwise extremely honorable fighters, knights and nobles. Thus comes the tournament, and the 'rules' in this lore are pretty simple:
The player either plays a Longsword {using a longsword} or a Spike {using that spikey monstrosity}
When they fight, they can not hurt a surrendering opponent, and should try to cease fighting when possible. HOWEVER
IF ITS THEIR RIVAL HOUSE
Even if they surrender, the game doesn't end either until the Spikes detach some limb, or the longsword decapitates the Spike
Total war
surrendering doesnt work on me i kill them brutaly
spike being plancard
yeah i fuckin hate the plancard i suck at getting past the guard of polearms to begin with and that thing is cruel and evil
If only the truth were so simple, what lies beneath the skin of a Willie is not as it appears. The man in front of you every match is no man at all
he is merely a collection of vectors.... a robot with a mans skin....
In part, yes. You’re beginning to see his true nature
Okay....
do you guys ever just unlock ultra instinct in this game
https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/jDPZ07jrFq0vb8Gk9?invite=cr-MSxxdHcsMjAxNDg5MDU0LA i did once
Watch unlocking ultra instinct in half sword and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
I had to get a vertical mouse after injuring my wrist at work to keep playing this game.
Why have one weapon when you can have two!
crazy headbutt combo but cmon dawg record at like 60fps at least
idk why it was so laggy
to be fair i was streaming my half sword to a friend AND watching his stream so that probably put a bit of strain on my pc, wasnt actually that laggy while i was playing
if u did the slow-mo thru medal its just slowing down the fps
i did the slowmo via medal yes
obv gonna be hard to make a solid slow mo clip w/o recording at a super high fps thats not super noticable unless u slow it down
but youtubers like ovrdth who get those sexy clips with slowmo in post probably record at like 144 if not more
i wonder how i can raise my fps or even see my fps because i should in theory be able to run at 144fps max because my monitor is 144Hz
https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/jDPVQPiezVOIIgPch?invite=cr-MSwyUDcsMjAxNDg5MDU0LA heres another cool dodge, this time no medal slowmo tho
Watch dodge into singleleg and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
Can confirm
medal is pretty convenient but it compresses clips quite a bit and its not ideal
ack!
if u have a nvidia gpu u can use shadowplay
personally i set up obs to have a replay buffer that way i can easily keep stuff like youtube audio out of the recordings even tho ill never use them for anything
whats the r key's purpose ?
i have an nvidia gpu yeah, 1070 tho so it isnt the greatest by any means (tbf this pc was built in like 2018 so)
u should have shadowplay if the overlay isnt already bound to alt+z you can enable it in the nvidia app
only concern w stuff like shadowplay is that it locally stores the clips so if you don't have a lot of storage u may run into trouble down the line
can i not change the directory for the clips
you can
its pretty intuitive to use not quite on the same convenience level as medal but its fs more powerful
Have you tried testing dx11 vs dx12?
im on dx11, i havent tried dx12 since the whole memory leak thing when it was first implemented
if its just the clips that are coming out like that and not the gameplay its probably medal being fucky tbh
Yeah just saw you say your using a 1070 I would not use dx12 at all.
probably medal just being fucky yeah
Three things you can do.
First, make sure vsync is on. That's usually the first issue.
Then, you can see if the game is in dx12, for me, it tends to lag when taking clips in dx12. But dx12 is fine.
Finally,
Check your encoding path in medal, and change it. Usually that helps all around.
i think my vsync is off, thats probably not good
not necessarily a bad thing but if its causing your pc to throttle or wtv can hinder performance in other applications
I use Medal for all my clipping in games and I play a lot of halfsword, I notice you usually have to be on fullscreen with vsync on for best performance.
(in clips(
alr ill keep that in mind
guess it didnt register the throat was cut in the first swipe
if u have the storage to use something other than medal and are confident in your ability to do some stuff w software settings id advocate for that
v worthwhile in my experience but in all fairness i havent used medal since like 2020 and im not sure if its improved
Half sword doesnt support DLSS?
Yeah, I‘m good at half sword
-# see above
Miscalculated cut for sure lol that should have been a beheading.
i think the actual severing node in the neck is lower down, must of just squeaked by it
I've done beheading and it only doing partial skull being lobbed off
Granted it crashed my game once
No more nodes it is dynamic remember. This is why the duplicating severed limbs bug started miscalculated cuts made the computer decide to make 2 outcomes.
nice mouse movement on that one
swords in this game are the best at clubbing someone, strangely.
Stinky dragon
man, would love to see some caved in skulls from blunt weapons
i know its probably not the most realistic, but would really add some weight to the blunt class i think
There are things planned for this.
hell yeah
ngl the only thing i want from this game is just an option to only allow willies to spawn with swords
otherwise is fucking perfect
I want the option to fight the alien from the movie alien
true
i'm certainly not complaining, the gore system is awesome already
Should add crossbows
You know rat the alt stance for swords works really well against shielfs
*shields
Especially if you can get the pommel behind the shield you can get it out of the way
i win for armbar
are there any like, sword and board guides?
or what would be the most efficient way to use sword and buckler? playing around passive parry still? do I try and swing with the sword and shield at the same time?
ohhh
How do i get access to the music channel and stuff
i have dabbled it sword and buckler a bit but im still learning, from what i've experienced the guards shown in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM-CVWhvdOk this video are pretty good most of the time
Using Historical Sword fighting techniques in Half Sword
Sources used: Fiore dei Liberi's Flower of Battle and the Royal Armouries Manuscript I.33
Time Stamps:
Arming sword guards - 00:00
Basic arming sword attacks - 00:39
Arming sword with buckler - 02:50
Combining the techniques - 03:39
the one at 3:20 is one i have most success with
followed very closely by 3:31
i guess the thihng im struggling with most is mouse movements. do i hold left AND right slick for these? When i swing do i release right click or not
i tend to hold both, dont use my sword until they strike and hopefully hit the buckler, at which point i try to strike them, buckler will move which leaves you open but if they are recovering from a strike you should have time to give them a quick one two
cause like in this video he has his shield held straight out, but I cant seem to get it like that
you just hold right mouse button and it should go out gimme a sec to remember
gonna go play with bucklers rq to try to get my memory going
this might be kinda good example of what im talking about
hold your buckler out and wait for them to strike, once their strike and are recovering it try to lunge forwards and put a hit or two
if they dont die after two retreat because it is not worth taking the chance
but just holding the right mouse button until the hit, and then switching to left mouse button to swing like you normally do
also hold shift all the time to move quicker
appreciate it big dog
it just feels like they recover so fast for me
perhaps i jsut need to practice is all
sometimes they do, just practice a bit and eventually you will be able to kinda just know when you have a chance
it goes from being like an active decision in your mind to just being instinct after a bit
being able to spot an opportunity i mean
most of the time with this weapon combo i do get injured, i still haven't really gotten used to it fully
only a minor cut on the foot and hand though so not that bad
when the edibles hit
hit me with the ol razzle dazzle
new breathing hole acquired
just in beat:)
A NEW HERO HAS BEEN CREATED FOR THE HALF SWORD CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: IRON CHEF!!!!
iron chef but he doesn't have kitchen knives 😔
He has 4 butcher knives, instead!
Hedgeborns get COOKED
He always starts with his meat tenderizers, though, before escalating to more lethal methods
How you personalize the characters? Or... play against lowest armor chars? D:
I've downloaded the Quality of Life mod from Froid & The Ghost, alongside the OVRDTH Mod:

Thank you! ❤️
You're welcome!
i feel like i'm addicted to slitting throats, should i be concerned?
The hold and stab strat is way more satisfying
SHATTERS LEG
COLLAPSES LUNG
BREAKS IN TEETH
"we have no problem with thee, nor thein kin"
REAL
so real i got "there is not need for bloodshed" after cutting bros face off
I broke both arms on him n one of his legs n then said that
i hope at one point i end up beheading a man by accident and then i say somethin like "We have lost enough already, why lossen more?"
He called me a “cuckold” I think it’s well deserved
fair fair
He also grabbed me
Why lossen more limbs more like
normally i try to deal as little damage as possible but if i get grabbed THAT ARM WILL BE OUTSIDE THE RING
True, my dagger WILL be within the general confines of thine skull
what are the Damage to Player / NPC levels for?
Mollywopping willie
Depends, you wanna be semi-invulnerable (more than one limb being cut off makes it significantly harder to kill or uncon), if you want to make fights last longer or quicker, or if you’re a masochist and want the chance for a feather to kill you
And making sure he doesn't mollywop you
i like lowering the player damage but not the npc damage so i get to feel like some kinda revenant
I prefer having equal levels on the slider otherwise I feel bad
Semi invulnerable is sorta not true except for simple slashes
Any stab/upper torso grab by a billhook or whatever is pretty much still insta death
bludgeoning, slashing, and stabbing to non-vital areas will basically do nothing to you
so it's pretty much true
don't downplay my boi immortality like that
is there a way to unbalance the match? such as fighting as a full armor against a "peasant"
yes
Mods
can you tell me which ones?
Loadout selector and playtest trainer. Go to nexus and/or #modders-guild-hall pinned messages
bro thinks hes Guts
Would yall rather have neck armor or back armor?
Trying to get a very specific t7 loadout with the rng
But for some reason it rlly doesn't want to give me both of those how I need it to
neck armor is way more important in 1v1
especially against the swords
keep gambling for it ig
I figured as much I just keep getting hooked around the back by 2h axes 
wonderful
try to parry em idk
with ur weapons or Shift+strafe
idk what else to say
True, I've only been playing like a week so am still gitting gud.
Maybe it's time for QoL mod just for drip
whats that
I've seen ppl on reddit talking about it but it's for the playtest and let's you spawn whatever
Then save it with ovrdth selector
Dum question I never figure out how to access the photomode photos
Like saving them for outside use, can't find where to access it
button
No
Uhmmm I feel like I've found it before but can't remember fuuuk
lemme check it rq for ya
Ty boss
There we go
Depends
I noticed that too, this is my first time actually chilling in the server. It seems like other channels allow media
I believe some armor just isn't given for some weapons and vice versa for balancing reasons
@naive holly steem/steamaps/common/Half Sword Playtest/ Version Test54/ Screenshots
Ah so the in-game screenshots go to steam folder too? Ez
I don't see t6 upper leg armor for voulges
Dm me
Except maybe if you get no splint limb armor
its that ez
Leveling system, level 2 for image perms which takes around 2 hours of chatting
Or post freely in #photography📷
Honestly cool feature, especially since some channels have the perms by default so no one's locked out
Just if you wanna post where you want to post you gotta establish yourself
Yeah helps prevent bad actors for sure. People are less likely to post stupid shit when they had to “grind” for the ability to do so.
what was this made for ?
That timing lol
now i see
We had a lot of stupid people posting gross/hateful stuff so things had to be limited as the server grew
makes sense
damn i gotta clean my clips folder asap
100+gb of clips is insane
💀
yay i found it
is that goku lmfao
Shit builds up so fast I literally made a subreddit and an alt just to store clips 💀
When I'm over here with like 15 minutes of footage, then cutting out all the worthy clips
sounds complicated
Nah I just post to the sub with the alt, which is easy to switch between,
Then save whichever clip I need off reddit when I want to post it.
Not too complicated, just some planning
i just delete
B-but mah digital hoarding
I'll probs get tired of the process eventually and stop caring lol
now that you mention it thats one of the reason i post on youtube, so i can delete all without feeling like im gonna need it in the future
lol true
Thats the better rout fucka subreddit. I've just never posted on YouTube in two decades of using it almost lol
Playing KCD2, I love it so far. But OMFG THE COMBAT IS SO BAD. Really difficult to go back to this shit after playing Half Sword!
a couple months ago i deleted almost 330 gb just of my tf2 clips
and the worst part was they all were mid
shanked
yeah i saw kcd combat and just kinda went "ew" and then went back to halfsword
I've got like 600 hours in chiv2, half sword has literally spoiled it for me. No amount of multikill deep dopamine shots do it anyone
i use streamable.com
in youtube videos upload 2 slow
Not functionally similar games at all, i just have a new itch lol
im a big fan of midage games, got 500+ hrs in mordhau (i fucking hate this game)
and when i found half sword
damn its awesome
Literally I just be sneaking 10 minutes here and there while I'm doing chores lmaooo
Is youtube pretty intuitive to post to? I'll go find out myself but, just yapping
watchamean?
yes very easy, high quality
Like when I have other stuff to do, and am not committing to gaming for an extended period
Sweet imma check it out tysm
Guys what do u think about this one?
is he alive here?:)
posing for the gram after a spin kick
yea it was a spin kick went wrong :))
why is goku making that Michael Jackson pose
goku walking the opps down
and bro on the left is making the Dracula pose
wtf is going on there
xddd
blackscreen clip
wait few sec
ayw
did it loaded?
nah
😦
ig its the clip and not me
loaded for me
Do you use steam to get clips?
now mostly steam, but before i use nvidia
okay this is gonna make me crash out why do we have a gamefootage channel but embeds dont work
skill issue

Steam clips don’t like discord sometimes for whatever reason. They work on discord mobile for me but not on my desktop
why cant u use gamebar
Win+G i mean
never tried is that good?
yeah
gamebar’s video quality was terrible for me, not sure why
u can change it in the settings
ik, I messed around with it a while but couldn’t get rid of these weird stutters
who is better?
✌🏻 ✌🏻🫰🏻 🤏🏻 🖖🏻 🤙🏻 u hear me homie
people in ussr used to have these typo things on they're walls
fuck
red
Which one is better?
I’m torn I liked 1 at first but now I like 2 more
Damn
Ok 1
These are hard wth
U have to choose 🙂
Probably 1?
Literally just uploading from my phone like any other app. So easy. Thanks m'lord.
and second one looks cooler cuz looking around this dude u can kinda see the story
hungry for more rat clips
me?
yuh
i can't play halfsword rn i got a cat on my mousepad
i got cat on lap
my boy is hanging out with me
now its a catpad
true

my boy likes to be the center of attention at all times
also can yall check the vid i sent in game footage and tell if yalls character has done that before
Sometimes i have 1 scene and i make like 2 to 6 pics, after that its so hard to choose something for photos xd
oh yeah i have that happen sometimes
its goofy
I've heard there's a mod that lets you choose your loadout, anybody know the name?
i still lost after clipping that but that looks so sick
its messed up
i see the 1 frame only
waiting
ovrdths
trainer mod or quality of life mod
