[frail heron]

LOL

[ember quartz]

It's more about where in your swing you can shift.

[slow cipher]

Bro what happened after April Fools like god damn

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REVIEWS OF THE GAME

[proven verge]

My attempt 😄

[ember quartz]

People got mad.

[slow cipher]

How mad

What is even added

[jolly gorge]

I did too ngl

I was only upset until they added free mode

[slow cipher]

Cause everything looks the same

[ember quartz]

I was just happy my favorite game got an update. 🤗

[soft osprey]

Play and find out

[slow cipher]

Nuh uh

[ember quartz]

They were pissed you had progress to get tiers in free mode.

[slow cipher]

My DM's was plagued to keep the playtest

Idk why

[slow cipher]

Okay and what do you get at the end?

[true thorn]

bad to the bone

[ember quartz]

Baron.

[jolly gorge]

They included me

[slow cipher]

What does Baron have?

[ember quartz]

Just play and you'll see.

[soft osprey]

Roughly $750,000 after taxes

[jolly gorge]

Say no more

[slow cipher]

Bruh I ain't playing bro cause I am hella confuse

[ember quartz]

Yeah, I bought a house after killing Baron.

[slow cipher]

Especially people PREACHING me on keeping the playtest version

[soft osprey]

What’s there to be confused about

[slow cipher]

🧍‍♂️

[proven verge]

Its a demo of a early access 6 months away anyways so it wasnt supposed to have reviews anyways.

But they reworked blood and gore, added skeletons with bones that break, gauntlet progression mode, some new weapons, and more.

A lot of new people were mad that the game made you do the gauntlet to unlock the tiers, they also changed the weapon physics and it feels a lot smoother, polearms are held different, weight of weapons are more accurate, etc.

You're your own person, make your own opinions. Its 2 gigabytes, you dont have to uninstall the playtest, and its free.

[ember quartz]

You can keep playtest and download the demo too for your own opinion.

[slow cipher]

This gotta be the longest April Fools

[slow cipher]

Thank you

Getting info was never this hard to get

[grim nacelle]

im keeping it

[slow cipher]

😭

[grim nacelle]

but how to run it

[slow cipher]

ANYWAYS

Idk

[swift dock]

what will the fully released game be like?

[proven verge]

#faq games not even 5% done yet we dont know

[ember quartz]

Right click play test, properties, files, UE54.exe

[soft osprey]

Hard to get? #announcements #updates every bit of info you could want to know is right there lol

[proven verge]

Run it from the exe

[normal dragon]

Abyss would be so cool if it was even marginally optimized

[slow cipher]

That sh was vague af imo

Didn't help me as much

[proven verge]

I mean its kinda cause its a demo, its meant to be tried so you can judge it yourself.

[soft osprey]

It told you exactly what was added

[glacial chasm]

easter hop in vc im getting executed

[slow cipher]

So the same with a new gamemode... and a Baron

🧍‍♂️

[soft osprey]

I’ll miss you

I guess

Eh

[proven verge]

You can also change willies height now, there's bosses that are 7 feet tall and have huge weapons at the end of each tier. Id say the highlights are the new physics, bone breaks, and slow mo.

[grim nacelle]

THAT WAS the worst idea

now its telling me i won 500 times

[glacial chasm]

wow

thank you

[soft osprey]

A true champion

[jolly gorge]

The veteran boss is so easy with a polearm

[timid imp]

any boss is easy to beat with polearms

polearms are literally the best thing ever

[soft osprey]

No you are

[jolly gorge]

Yes but the veteran especially

Bro is literally open domed

[ember quartz]

Halberdier is the only exception to that rule.

[timid imp]

omg thank you

[timid imp]

i forgor which one he is

i found all of them really easy to beat after i got my polearm in t4

[true thorn]

chat rate the drip

[timid imp]

10/10

[true thorn]

(i definitely have pants on i promise)

[timid imp]

good shit nice polearm

[ember quartz]

The boss with the long ass pole arm. Like... Loooooong long.

[slow cipher]

Does not help me what I am getting or what I should be aware of and I like specifics

[jolly gorge]

Fire

10/10

[timid imp]

oh yeah him i just rushed and got a bit past his sharp part and then bonked him and he dropped

and then i cleaved him a few times and it was all over

[slow cipher]

THANK YOU

[timid imp]

that unironically scared the fuck out of me

[soft osprey]

Now I know you’re being purposely uh…

You know..

[timid imp]

i was not ready for that at all holy shit easter 😭

[ember quartz]

Yeah, Plancon is the best weapon for the tier by far.

[rancid dune]

yo, just to check, is the last level suppose to be without weapons? seems kinda insane to beat it

[timid imp]

oh i didn't use plancon

[true thorn]

you get weapons and armor off the dead enemies

[ember quartz]

At least because of the boss.

[grim nacelle]

they didnt specify that you could become baron if u finished gauntlet mode

[slow cipher]

🧍‍♂️

[timid imp]

i used the weird one that is long but not a billhook

idk what it is called

[slow cipher]

This is some crazy aaa server

[ember quartz]

:•|

[slow cipher]

I should've stayed quiet

LMAO

God damn

[soft osprey]

You’re right sorry, they should’ve specified every possible detail lol

[proven verge]

Kind of a surprise, it blew our minds on release.

[soft osprey]

You’re asking for information. We’re giving it to you. Don’t be so sensitive lol

[grim nacelle]

yeah true

[slow cipher]

You are with the most absolute vaguest information, so you are right

[proven verge]

pshhh

[slow cipher]

But anyways ima go

[grim nacelle]

@soft osprey is it normal that i lose baron tier if i play gauntlet again and earn a level

[true thorn]

-1 point for having blood on your face

[soft osprey]

Jesus man people have told you every detail possible now. Just play it or don’t

[proven verge]

You wont ever catch willie lacking though naw mean

[jolly gorge]

When are they gonna add giant warhammers

[grim nacelle]

@soft osprey

[true thorn]

i dont think bigass mauls were really a thing

[urban jackal]

anyone else here suck at the game?

[soft osprey]

Not sure I haven’t had many opportunities to play it yet so I haven’t gotten baron

[jolly gorge]

Maybe not

[jolly gorge]

Halfback Mountain

[stiff raven]

It's the kinda people who'd play this game

Very niche

Very silly

[grim nacelle]

you can just go to settings and make yourself invincible, takes like 20 mins max

[proven verge]

Closest thing I see would be some carpenter sledge

[soft osprey]

I don’t wanna cheat!

Though I will cheat and save file copy

[proven verge]

https://tenor.com/view/office-no-man-nope-gif-7299197

[analog stream]

And what about the polehammers? Are those not enough?

[dapper geyser]

whats baron?

[proven verge]

The final tier of gauntlet

[ember quartz]

Gold knight at the very end.

[dapper geyser]

oh

true

[jolly gorge]

Bigger hammer = bigger bonk

[dapper geyser]

always wondered what they would put in the grey'd out section

surely they change it to a guy that has a musket or smthing

or a big warhammer with spikes

[jolly gorge]

Flintlocks in spoilance

[dapper geyser]

you serious?

[jolly gorge]

No but its an idea I had

[dapper geyser]

oh 😭

[turbid topaz]

nah I almost cried ngl #game-footage-🎮🎥

[dapper geyser]

they should make the baron guy have this tho

[jolly gorge]

💔

[neat abyss]

guys

[turbid topaz]

how did that even happen 😢

[neat abyss]

is there anythign special about the baron

what do you get if you reach that rank

[jolly gorge]

Willie being made of butter

[proven verge]

No muskets or flintlocks yet. Devs said theyre basing it around 1450 germany, so these babies are all we'd get or closest to it.

[jolly gorge]

Either Willie being made of butter or all of the blades are razor sharp

[dapper geyser]

what about a warhammer

[proven verge]

We got warhammers

[jolly gorge]

Doesnt mean they cant add those…

[dapper geyser]

we do?

[jolly gorge]

https://tenor.com/view/birdman-hand-rub-thinking-dance-gif-17449632

[true thorn]

yeah

they just dont spawn very often for some reason

[dapper geyser]

oh right

no those are too tiny

[true thorn]

massive mauls werent used very often

[dapper geyser]

fair enough

[jolly gorge]

If they add a grip strength mechanic Ill cry

[dapper geyser]

ig with a physics based game the character wouldn't be able to life a big ass hammer

[true thorn]

yeah itd be hard

the long candlesticks are close enoughanyways tbh

[jolly gorge]

Willie would flip over it on the first swing

[proven verge]

Its just impractical as hell. No doubt once workshop comes into play when they add it we'll see all kinds of weapon mods.

[shy slate]

i wonder how would ranged weapons work in this game

[dapper geyser]

that'd be sick. Can't wait

[jolly gorge]

They should add nature maps

Like battles in grass fields

[proven verge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_mI0VHowsc
Probably close to the arrow combat here.

[last totem]

GUYS my game crashes whenever i die, can I fix this somehow?

[still brook]

Whats the name of the new (i think) weapon thats like a pole hammer but flat cylinders/disks with little spiky bits at the end?

[last totem]

Warhammer?

[true thorn]

those are just polehammers

[last totem]

close enough

[proven verge]

Judging from the #work-in-progress carpet previews, I think early access or next update will have the interior room you can see on the steam page screenshots.

[still brook]

Thanks !

[jolly gorge]

Sweet

[still brook]

I love how long and mean they are

[jolly gorge]

Awwweee

[jolly gorge]

When will they add winning by making your opponent fall in love

[frigid folio]

whenever my game crashes from the void the game actually acts like a virus
doesnt let me leave the tab, doesnt let me alt+4, doesnt let me close it from the taskbar
only way i could close it is my using ctrl+alt+del, or by making a new desktop and opening taskmanager there before it can pull me back

[proven verge]

I wasnt the one who fell in love, but it stopped me in my tracks ❤️

[jolly gorge]

Awe

[true thorn]

this is unironically so fucking cute

[dapper geyser]

where do I find photos taken in game?

[proven verge]

In your game directory youll find screenshots under versiontest54

[dapper geyser]

alr thx

[tardy sphinx]

Oh yeah! This might be a good place to report this:
I had this recurring issue while playing in the gauntlet mode where every time I specifically die past the Beggar stage, the application starts using up memory like crazy from what I've seen on the taskbar and I'm forced to terminate it with the taskbar manager.

Going unconscious nor giving up don't cause it. Just dying.

[tall dagger]

They were plotting his death.

[still brook]

is there any way to stop flopping over when tryin gto grapple someone?

[tall dagger]

Wdym??

[still brook]

lots of times when i try to grab a willie my willie will just fall on top of him and release his grip

[tall dagger]

Yeah the gripping is weird… I find you can only hang on to certain parts of Willie.

Try to keep yourself from bashing your head into him when you grab

[jolly gorge]

Dude fr

[proven verge]

They need to be off balance before you start the grapple or theyll just knock/pull you off your feet, initiate with a kick first or strike. Make sure youre holding shift too so Willies feet are spread to maintain balance.

[still brook]

ah im probably not shifting enough then

[true thorn]

false

he his defending his lover

[light storm]

holy fucking shit i hit the motherload

[drowsy lava]

Quick question, is there any way to instantly unlock the Baron tier for free play? I swear I won the fight fair and square literally 11 times, but right at the final wave or when the boss himself appears I just get the fatal error and it instantly closes my game

[tall dagger]

why cant i get this kind of luck after dying on the final challenge?? i get left lookin like this at the end

no pants bruh

[light storm]

AHAHHA

[timid imp]

i only know one person who might know how to fix it with file magic but they are currently sleeping, what i can suggest is trying turning gore off and lowering graphics and setting dx thing to dx11

[fallow kite]

I just keep running around without killing anyone once i get to the stages where real armor spawns in untill I get a full set

[tall dagger]

turn down your blood slider. and once you beat the baron, save you gauntlet save file in appdata > local (or local low)

like breh. no shirt

[jolly gorge]

You can save?

[tall dagger]

the game saves gauntlet progression automatically

[jolly gorge]

Huh

[tall dagger]

but if you restart the gauntlet you can use baron in freeplay anymore

to avoid this you can make a copy of your gauntlet save file

AFTER winning

or right at the tier 9 boss fight if you choose

[jolly gorge]

Im only gonna play the gauntlet once

[tall dagger]

could be restarted accidentally. its very easy to do

[jolly gorge]

Not playing it more than I have to

[timid imp]

yeah dont touch it again unless you intend on completing the baron rank gets locked again if you start a new run

[tall dagger]

he had a little tumble

[drowsy lava]

I have unfortunately suffered beating the final challenge 11 times, just to get cucked

[magic vector]

can i keep baron on free mode forever?

[timid imp]

you should've seen what happened to poor m00

[jolly gorge]

This game is moving like a ubisoft production

[tall dagger]

you can aslong as you dont restart gauntlet which is why i advise saving your gauntlet progression file

[primal sail]

The devs have to fix baron mode bro it keeps bugging out (sometimes my character has no armour and sometimes i have to redo gauntlet mdoe because it says i havent done it yet)

[magic vector]

thx

[tall dagger]

everything was added not long ago. aslong as we keep testing all the bugs and putting in feedback they will work everything out

[magic vector]

where is the save file?

[tall dagger]

gotta remember its jsut a free to play demo

[tall dagger]

for me its in appdata > local > halfswordUE5 >saves

for others it might be in LocalLow

[timid imp]

the man suffered through like a fucking bajillion crashes, finally got the baron rank, i told him about the bug that locks it when a dev was in the chat and he said he would fix it, the bug was not fixed so m00 lost the baron rank and had to redo the gauntlet, made it to the very end right before baron and got poked in eye and sent to abyss, did all of abyss and then instead of being send back to the final fight was reset as a beggar, redid all of the gauntlet again and got to the final fight, crashed unironically about 30 times but finally managed to get baron back

and each of those crashes was literally like right before the baron drops, at one point it literally crashed right as the baron spawned

lifting him over your head was diabolical

[drowsy lava]

Yeah I feel that pain well, mine was literally screaming "Mercy good Si-" and then it crashes

[timid imp]

it was both extremely funny and also honestly soul crushing

the man was like fucking sisyphus pushing the boulder

every time he got to the top it crashed and he had to start over

[drowsy lava]

Wonder if I can just modify the file somehow, I really r e a l l y don't want to redo the gauntlet for the 12th time in it's entirety

minus 3 if you add the abyss returns

that I managed

[tall dagger]

Just redo it with your blood slider off and save the file

[timid imp]

and also turn graphics lower

and no gore

[tall dagger]

Then bam. Never have to worry about it again

[timid imp]

and min max dmg sliders

to speedrun it a bit

you've already done it before just fucking cheese it

[coarse copper]

ouch?

[timid imp]

oh god

that is gross

[dapper coral]

second time its crashed on last challenge for me... bruh

[proven verge]

Ive heard turning off blood completely can help

[proven verge]

@timid imp

[dapper coral]

It is off 😭
Took so long to get there too

[timid imp]

oh my god man

that is fucking vile dont do that to people 😭

[wary mica]

guys i have an question. How i get the crosshair?

[dapper coral]

Why did I get facepalmed for my game crashing

[tall dagger]

There is no actual crosshair like there was in the previous demo

[wary mica]

oh

i cant send images here look your dm

[storm kettle]

Lvl 3

[tall dagger]

Centered crosshair makes your controls start in the middle of the screen rather than the right side (I think right side…)

[proven verge]

😄

[tall dagger]

That crunch makes me want to vomit…

[storm kettle]

Bro why aren't my videos loading

[jolly gorge]

I broke the Peasant boss’s leg

[drowsy quartz]

is the faster kicking faction any good?

[sand elm]

[tall dagger]

@proven verge care for a friendly challenge?

[abstract hamlet]

Hey what happens when you beat baron mode?

I've gotten there a good 4 times and just have never got it

[tall dagger]

you get the baron for free play mode

[abstract hamlet]

Cool

[storm kettle]

You get Barron (I'm pretty sure)

[still brook]

oh my god i just broke a willies bone for the first time

[still brook]

poor guy was just limping away in my game

[solar jackal]

hey so suggestion what about a long axe should be the height of a persons chest at minimum

[drowsy lava]

@timid imp Got em, this time it didn't crash and I finally got the tier Like I was supposed to 13 tries ago

Now, I'll try to find the save file

[short marsh]

Does anyone else notice how trash to new progression system is?

[tall dagger]

No?

[serene tulip]

seems okay to me

[short marsh]

bro, litteraly have to start from beginning if you die

[serene tulip]

yeah, that's intended

[tall dagger]

Yep… it says you will lose your character if you leave the void

That’s the whole point of the gauntlet mode. It wasn’t meant to be easy

[short marsh]

didn't expect this game to become STALKER Anomaly on ironman mode

[proven verge]

Free mode is there...you can still just mess around.

[tall dagger]

There’s still the sandbox mode for yall.

The game was never intended to be a sandbox.

[shrewd sierra]

oh well nvm then

[proven verge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_mI0VHowsc Does anyone else follow this?

[tall dagger]

Did you uninstall the playtest?

[shrewd sierra]

it made me

couldnt play it

[tall dagger]

You didn’t have to do it

The playtest could still be launched from the games local files

[proven verge]

It did not make you lol it just had the button, you can launch any game you have installed through the the exe in game files

[shrewd sierra]

bruh

[tall dagger]

lol

Just give the demo a chance. You’ll warm up to it

I know I have. And I’ve sunk over 300 hours into the peaktest. I mean playtest

[shrewd sierra]

nah i js figured smth ive been playing the gauntlet thinking it was free mode bc it said free mode on the side

god im dumb...

[tall dagger]

Eh. It’s easy to miss. You’re not the only one

[shrewd sierra]

quick question no wierdness whats the age limit on this server

[tall dagger]

Idk. 13 probably

What ever discords standards are

pwease

[fiery nexus]

bro just turn the damage u take all the way down, the damage the npcs take all the way up, use swords until u get to armored people, use blunt things on armored people

takes like 20 mins

[tall dagger]

I would advise against asking someone for that or taking files from anybody

[mossy trail]

i have paid antivirus

[tall dagger]

😐

[shrewd sierra]

this dude

[tall dagger]

How long did it take you to set that up???

[shrewd sierra]

i used the enhancer so like a minute

i js grabbed and dashed with him and he flung

[late remnant]

any idea on how to make the game run better without making it super blury?

[mint bear]

im crashing alot rn is there a reason for that or is it js gonna happen to everyone

[tall dagger]

Turn down blood slider

like all they do is flail their arms around then get oneshotted

[lusty oracle]

well discovered is a big word, i died and won at the same time so now my willie is naked

[snow gulch]

WHO bit an apple out of bro 😭

[tall dagger]

Lookin like the damn Apple logo

[lusty oracle]

oh its a known bug, disregard me

[tall dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/apple-logo-itunes-imac-macbook-gif-20184593

[snow gulch]

true

[light stirrup]

Old clip (warning; annoying and loud music)

[snow gulch]

almost looks like he has a shaved beard to me cause of the bruising

[mossy trail]

LOL

YO IVE FINALLY BROKEN SOMEONE'S ARM

[onyx ginkgo]

idk why but he kinda looks like a dog stung by a bee

[snow gulch]

yo wait i see it 😭

[mossy trail]

why is his

nose so big

[mossy trail]

oww

[zenith comet]

It's sad in the new update how nerfed roundhouse kicking is now, literally the best fun in fist fighting is near useless now

[tall dagger]

Turn damage up just a little bit. I’ve gotten some pretty good kicks in

Now you can utilize the slow mo for even more devastating kicks

[mossy trail]

i never tought of that

wow

[zenith comet]

I would but I'm sick of losing limbs to daggers in the higher tiers while in the gauntlet

[tall dagger]

just turn up npc damage lol

[zenith comet]

It could just be a skill issue idk, it's just a hard adjustment from 100 hours in the playtest to the new demo

[worthy hare]

Just had a fun moment that the commoner boss sword got my leg and killed me as soon as the screen turned white from the abyss

[mossy trail]

best weapon for knight??

[tall dagger]

oh i definitely get it. the demo takes alot of warming up...

[tall dagger]

one of the big swords. they do alot of blunt damage with decent reach

[mossy trail]

too late :c

[urban jackal]

how do i throw stuff

[mossy trail]

e

or q

q for left hand e for right hand

[urban jackal]

i see videos of people throwing weapon at the enemies

do i swing before dropping

[tall dagger]

Yep

[mossy trail]

yeah of course

[urban jackal]

alr 👍

[urban jackal]

chopping off their head feels satisfying

and the noise it makes

[gaunt burrow]

what is this

[tall dagger]

final challenge

[gaunt burrow]

interesting

[mossy trail]

i like breaking bones more

[urban jackal]

chopping off all the limbs is funny

[tall dagger]

real

[urban jackal]

i wish i could upload

i finished a carnage in 20 seconds

[urban jackal]

is your sensitivity high

my hits feel very slow and inaccurate

[tall dagger]

at the point of this recoring, yes

[fluid coral]

i started a throwing bombardment

we have three more throwers

the army grows

[shrewd patio]

maybe i just suck at this fucking game

but it literally feels like a rage game

[urban jackal]

nah im the same

[shrewd patio]

i keep dying at the higher ranks and have to go all the way through the abyss 😭

[urban jackal]

getting up pisses me off so much coz of how long it takes

[unkempt wraith]

have u guys made thrusts work reliably?

[urban jackal]

i forget i can thrust

[unkempt wraith]

when the stars align my thrusts actually hit clean lol

[shrewd patio]

yeah before their guard is up lol

w + m1

lol

[modest geyser]

WHY TF DOES THE GAME CRASH SO MUCH

[urban jackal]

my weapon is stuck in this guys leg

so annoying

[autumn dome]

it takes practice and also depends on the weapon

i will NEVER hit a thrust with a really long weapon but otherwise just go slomo and use your feet to line up the shot

[mossy trail]

im gonna

kill someone

irl

BECAUSE

I KEEP

FALLING DOWN

BECAUSE

MY WILLY

CANT CARRY HIS OWN WEIGHT

ouch

that sounded weird

[brazen ice]

this game

became dark souls

kill the third boss feels so hard

[mossy trail]

dude said third boss

[urban jackal]

the first one is almost impossible

[mossy trail]

im at the last one 🙏

[mossy trail]

just punch him?

[brazen ice]

well

[tall dagger]

are you guys so fr rn????

[brazen ice]

the second one is fucking hard

[urban jackal]

i get axed every time

[tall dagger]

....

[brazen ice]

but the third one...

[tall dagger]

parry the axe...?

[brazen ice]

bro his sword is strong as f

[urban jackal]

second is easy

[tall dagger]

block it...?

like cmon now

[brazen ice]

did u join swordsman school?

because i look more like a peasant

parrying

[mossy trail]

wait him to attack u then rush and punch him

[tall dagger]

literally just bait him into an overhead swing. ez game from there

[urban jackal]

well im new to the game so i dont know much

[mossy trail]

ong

[warped apex]

This boss is so easy you don't even need to attack lmfao

[mossy trail]

@tall dagger how the hell do i beat the knight boss

[warped apex]

Which one

[mossy trail]

the knight boss

[tall dagger]

You get lucky and hit him u til he finally falls down

[warped apex]

which knight boss

[mossy trail]

this dude

[warped apex]

oh easy

[tall dagger]

There’s only 1 knight boss…

[mossy trail]

^^

[mossy trail]

elaborate

[warped apex]

Do this

[autumn dome]

i can never get past #4 tbh #3 is my limit

[warped apex]

I've beaten the gauntlet 11 times

[tall dagger]

Bro STILL fell over 😭

[warped apex]

I was about to beat it a 11th time and it crashed

[mossy trail]

yo what

[agile jacinth]

I like half swording greatswords into his armor gaps, I've managed it two or three times.

[mossy trail]

ON GOD

I CANN NOT

[warped apex]

I mean 12*

[mossy trail]

GET UP

[warped apex]

Or do this to him

I like to bully him

[mossy trail]

??

gang

what

i have the great sword

[jolly gorge]

omg

[tall dagger]

Every time I try that he just barely grazes any part of my armor and I fall over

[jolly gorge]

i got to ultimate challenge then my game crashe

[agile jacinth]

Make sure to half swording it.

[mossy trail]

omg js

[jolly gorge]

can i go back to ultimate challenge or do i have to do the whole gauntlet again

[mossy trail]

join vs

and see how im struggling

[agile jacinth]

His being taller than you makes it easy to get it up into his armpit.

[mossy trail]

vc

[mossy trail]

wait

lemme

put on my mic

[astral crypt]

wanna see someone's neck snap

[shrewd patio]

i just got reset for like the 18th time today

some knight put me to rest by half swording his polearm and stabbing me in the neck

and then i got clipped by a damn pitchfork in abyss

[coarse copper]

is there a mod that makes them never give up unless they die

[stiff raven]

I just don't give up until they die

If they choose to no longer hold a weapon that's their fault

[mossy trail]

they dont give up until they die anyways

[thin dew]

anyone else getting crashes all the god damn time? it happens when i connect a hit with someone wearing armor and only during the late tiers

[coarse copper]

when they beg for mercy?

[mossy trail]

they mostly dont

[coarse copper]

well im always beating them up with fist so most of the time for me yes

[paper cosmos]

Been playing on steam deck and it’s running well on medium settings😎

[coarse copper]

like get up bro

[unique vale]

Why tf is the first boss to hard to beat?

You need the same weapon as him to even kill him.

[urban jackal]

nobody here thinks he is, i think hes hard too

[coarse copper]

i just get up closs to where he cant hit me

[unique vale]

That is how I die

;-

;-;

[urban jackal]

everytime i do that his axe just sticks to me and rips off my limb

[unique vale]

It one shots me every time

[mossy trail]

@jovial lichen

[unique vale]

cool

[urban jackal]

get lucky with a long ranged weapon

[unique vale]

:\

[astral crypt]

eye blinding

[unique vale]

my eyes burn

[astral crypt]

lobotomy over there

[mossy trail]

this is how it looks to others

when i screenshare

[astral crypt]

also the neck snapping is horrifying

[cerulean cloud]

i find that a candlestick to the neck works pretty good against the first boss

the little point

[charred moth]

oops

[tall dagger]

god damn the clip farming has been good today

[cerulean cloud]

mans broke his neck with a spin kick

[charred moth]

idk but the farmer and the no armor swordsmen do the BEST kicks

been that way since the playtest

[cerulean cloud]

roadhouse type shit

[cerulean cloud]

probably because no armor

[tall dagger]

Baron is crazy too. All that heavy armor plus his size. His kicks are explosive.

[charred moth]

i mean they do the best even compared to the peasant

it feels like the perfect balance of shoes and heavy ish leggings

[cerulean cloud]

how do you even get to move your mouse that fast

do you just set the dpi up super high

[charred moth]

i mean

mines normal

and with slow mo its easy

[tall dagger]

Yeah high DPI and sensitivity. + holding shift lets you spin faster

[cerulean cloud]

what DPI do you use

if i set mine up to the max i literally get no accuracy

[tall dagger]

5000

for spin kicks

2400 for swordplay

[broken smelt]

hi

im new

[elder meteor]

let him swing and then keep hitting him in the side

he takes forever to wind up so if you just repeatedly get hits in he cant do much

[broken smelt]

cool clip

[elder meteor]

and most the time after you get a series of hits going he wont be able to swing since youre stunning him repeatedly

[unique vale]

I tried, but I only end up with short range weapons that don't do much damage in the first place

[broken smelt]

woah what

is this the game

[unique vale]

yea

[elder meteor]

best weapons to use against him are like candle stick

axe

the paddle looking thing

shovel

[broken smelt]

thats uhh

[elder meteor]

also the stool works good too

[unique vale]

wooden weapon, is ass

[broken smelt]

gory

[elder meteor]

its surprisingly not

if you keep spam hitting he really cant do anything

[unique vale]

Gory gory, what a helluva way to die!

[unique vale]

ok

[spice dawn]

the game keeps crashing for fucks sake , i tried to complete the final level 5 times and it crashes everytime

[jolly gorge]

Turn off blood

It should help

[hidden zephyr]

Why does the AI Half Sword so much?

[spice dawn]

maybe cause of the name of the game

[cerulean cloud]

armor

[normal remnant]

for the funny

[tall dagger]

They do it more depending on the tier.

[spice dawn]

what's the point of the game then

[jolly gorge]

Whatever you wanna play it for i guess

[urban jackal]

fighting

[tall dagger]

What a weird thing to nitpick…

[normal remnant]

willie broke he neck 😦

[broken smelt]

yo i got a kill

[drowsy flint]

i just cut off the soldier bosses foot in abyss and he was walking on it just fine lmao

[tall dagger]

Sick. Did you break his leg?

[broken smelt]

cut him in half

[tall dagger]

Vertically?

[broken smelt]

yea

[jolly gorge]

Sometimes I cut Willie in half with a hoe on peasant

[broken smelt]

how to send pic

[urban jackal]

has anyone died from their own weapon

[broken smelt]

me

[cerulean cloud]

one time i skined their whole face with a hoe

[jolly gorge]

#game-footage-🎮🎥 message

[urban jackal]

yeah i cant get mad when it happens

[tall dagger]

The hoe is so buns bro

[broken smelt]

go see it

[urban jackal]

wow that sucks

i tripped and fell into mine

[cerulean cloud]

hot like how that footage but i've cut my foot off a couple times by dropping my sword

[urban jackal]

i learned to never run into someone holding a spear

[broken smelt]

i just won a 3v1

[tall dagger]

garbage weapon

[broken smelt]

wo ho

[jolly gorge]

You can you just have to strafe out of the way or smack the spear away

[cerulean cloud]

just round around them

[urban jackal]

its an instant win when you do

[jolly gorge]

What I usually do is go in short grip on my weapon (I prefer polearms), shove it away and hit their leg/lower torso

[urban jackal]

just kick them

[urban jackal]

yeah same

[broken smelt]

guys how to spin kick

[drowsy flint]

any polearm apart from the plancon, the key is to get past the pointy bit and pin them

[urban jackal]

i prefer using swords and axes

[jolly gorge]

I love the glaive

[jolly gorge]

Against the plancon I run in and pray if I dont have a polearm

[urban jackal]

i actually hate that weapon

good thing i dont go against it much

[tall dagger]

I’ve learned how to trap the plancon.

[broken smelt]

how do i spin kick

[tall dagger]

Spin and kick..

[broken smelt]

uh ok

[urban jackal]

i also hate going against shielders so much

[broken smelt]

uh no?

[urban jackal]

man boss 3 is so easy

[broken smelt]

doesn't work

[tall dagger]

You literally just hold shift, spin, and kick

It takes practice

[urban jackal]

i unlocked militia why cant i play it

[tall dagger]

Pick a faction

[jolly gorge]

Pick the eagle

[urban jackal]

oh whoops

[jolly gorge]

The one with the eagle

[broken smelt]

i did it so thx

[jolly gorge]

The black two headed eagle

[urban jackal]

why

[jolly gorge]

Its the best

[urban jackal]

i thought it was albania flag

is it?

[jolly gorge]

[urban jackal]

are you 100% sure

[tall dagger]

how to deal with spears

[urban jackal]

is that how you deal with everything

[jolly gorge]

Yes

[tall dagger]

It’s the only method to success.

[urban jackal]

yo i got the plancon

[jolly gorge]

To live is to be able to spin kick in half sword

[urban jackal]

easy wins now

[bold briar]

Do you guys hold down left mouse button 100% of the time, or just when attacking / parrying?

[urban jackal]

depends

[tall dagger]

Always wanna be ready to parry

[urban jackal]

get 2 monitors instead

[pulsar igloo]

i have 3
one on my right and one above the main
i just cannot imagine playing that shit @thorny perch @tall dagger

[urban jackal]

unfortunately one of them is smaller than the other

[jolly gorge]

[astral crypt]

[unkempt wraith]

im trying to apply both of those but yea it keeps backfiring lol

[pulsar igloo]

no need to technique here

[tall dagger]

[pulsar igloo]

bronze 1 gameplay

[cursive folio]

why is bone breakage so rare? i feel like it should happen more often

[pulsar igloo]

should have been better imo

[stiff raven]

Fighting the boss going well so far

[tall dagger]

[tall dagger]

What graphics preset you running?

[hidden zephyr]

Ayways, wish me luck in the Abyss

[fallow stone]

would be nice if you could have different physiques in this game rather than just being taller or shorter, wonder will it be added in future

[pulsar igloo]

you are going to fail

[random loom]

i ran epic, then ran high since i saw better frames

[tall dagger]

Ig epic is supposedly really unstable

[stiff raven]

I'm forgiving as well I guess

[pulsar igloo]

i just want more gore
i do not like that the gore slider only means more dismemberment
i want crazy shit
show me they guts falling out
show me him begging for mercy as his right eyeball is hanging

[tranquil rampart]

just had a bug where i held q, i grabbed my own dick, and proceded to slam myself into the ground at mach10

[pulsar igloo]

not a bug, realistic gameplay

[tranquil rampart]

i feel like that would take a lot of resources

[pulsar igloo]

i do not care

[ornate frost]

wait I just noticed smth. Is Willie’s face modeled after Vladimir Putin?

[tranquil rampart]

i mean like computer resources, might not be playable

[tranquil rampart]

i always see elon

[pulsar igloo]

they need to listen to a random discord user or their game is FINISHED

[flat trout]

Is there a way to bring baron into 2nd or 3rd teir? I feel like bullying some low-armor lol

[fallow stone]

make it an option for richer gamers

[ornate frost]

He looks very much like Putin

[tranquil rampart]

(factual)

[pulsar igloo]

yeah its always elon or putin

[ornate frost]

I’ll make a side by side in the morning

[tranquil rampart]

maybe if they had a gay mpreg baybe that went back in time and cloned himself. yeah. that makes sense. lore.

[stiff raven]

I've changed my mind

[honest cloud]

boutta vomit venom because i just made it to the ult challenge and the first guy i sliced in half suddenly expanded like the thing or something and this crazy stretched monster instantly sliced me in 2

i can't get through the ultimate challenge without crashing

it's been like an hour of trying

[tall dagger]

turn down everything and try again

[tranquil rampart]

can we get a lore confirmation on this devs ⁉️

[unkempt wraith]

being warmed up is a good feeling in this game lol

[hidden zephyr]

Ok, I am still alive in the Abyss, and there are already knights

[lunar oxide]

I always need to get like 3 or 4 matches in before I feel like I'm preforming at my best.

[hidden zephyr]

at first I thought the slow mode might be op

but after using it a bit more and seeing the stamina drain

It's fine actually

[simple path]

Hello, I'm new here, in the demo of the game I have a problem with being able to select, when directing the pointer it doesn't allow me to select the option

[red tendon]

tragic

i was gonna follow that up with a funny kill video but i cant find it now my b

[dire tide]

what are you trying to select? please elaborate

[simple path]

For example, when I want to select play demo I must press on settings to be able to select

[jolly gorge]

The half sword space program at it again 💔💔

[novel spear]

patience is the key

grapple your axe to his neck and he'll surrender

because he's losing oxygen

👍

[mint wadi]

Have a full fight vs a shield guy. I hate these guys. Watch to the end to see the new Leg Space Program.

[cerulean cloud]

do body types change fighting

[mint wadi]

The height of characters certainly changes what height swing will be at by default, which can impact how well you get over or under shields.

[cerulean cloud]

being short would probably be better then

just because you can hit legs easier

[summer pollen]

being a baron is cool and all but i wanna play as a different boss, especially the soldier boss with that nice halberd

[mint wadi]

I understand why leg hits are so good, but I really get tired of hitting them tbh

[cerulean cloud]

thats why i prefer playing with no armor

just because i can stab people or cut heads off easy

[mint wadi]

The armor is fine. The big-ass shields are annoying.

[astral crypt]

ok wait

how do i get THAT

?

[tall dagger]

i really want to use the scythe. i would main that shit

[mint wadi]

Beat the gaunlet fully, including the ultimate challenge.

[astral crypt]

nah gg

i lose

[cerulean cloud]

yea i hate that its locked to the one boss

[sharp fox]

my game keeps getting a fatal error on the ultimate challenge

[tall dagger]

and it doesnt last long enough in the abyss to satisfy me

[hidden zephyr]

GET AWAY, WILLIW

[tall dagger]

turn down blood and gore. dont run graphics on epic

[cerulean cloud]

he just wants a friend
