health care is free in the UL

UK

[light stirrup]

I'm reading all that in the "chooses combat gear" voice lmao

[fallow sentinel]

3 in the back and once in the shoulder and it was in essex

shoot

i cba with

that

i mean the UK is only trash for the same reason america is trash, immigrants

[rancid sluice]

yeah, so basically exactly like america

or the other way around i suppose

[fallow sentinel]

in the 1700s lmao

our last competent leader was winston churchill

in WW2

[rancid sluice]

i also love whisky

wait was it whisky or rum

maybe it was both

[cobalt egret]

this run made me feel badass

-41

also i thought discord compacted them

is that not a thing

oh

[naive holly]

Bro is gone

[cobalt egret]

well regardless it was a cool run with cool blocks

[cobalt egret]

he lookin straight flabbergasted

[stark hedge]

yikes

[naive holly]

Flabbergasted indeed

[cobalt egret]

me when the dentist misses

[rancid sluice]

me when my sinuses are clogged

[naive holly]

For real what getting numbed up feels like

[lapis wing]

This pic is just fire

[rancid sluice]

There's something so freaky about the skin texture

willy is rugged

[cobalt egret]

it's like leathery

yeah

[rancid sluice]

Dried skin, but yeah

[cobalt egret]

but it's also alot more specific than just skin

[naive holly]

Oh I got angles of this one fr

Welp, and a duplicate oops

[cobalt egret]

the indifference of the attacking willy adds to the lore

[naive holly]

His soul is black like his fit

[cobalt egret]

if anything he looks slightly upset

his fit looks burnt

[fallow sentinel]

KNEEL BEFORE ME STRANGER

gheez

[naive holly]

Charcoal man

Slick as it gets, chief.

[fallow sentinel]

low damage is more fun

[naive holly]

My slick submission

[stark hedge]

what

yes

[fallow sentinel]

yh its how i play most realistic if u ask me

[stark hedge]

what are you using to record?

[rancid sluice]

well yeah, losing a leg isn't gonna kill ya

[cobalt egret]

it is most definitely not

[rancid sluice]

not for a moment at least

[fallow sentinel]

perfection

[naive holly]

Gamebar lol

[fallow sentinel]

it is most of the shit in this game ive done in real life

[stark hedge]

guys, how can i go back to start the gauntlet again, i want to start from scratch

[rancid sluice]

check the pins

it's the top pin

[rose dock]

@chilly pecan My image does not meet the requirements for being put in #photography📷.

[stark hedge]

thank you my lovely knight

[fallow sentinel]

die alot or beat baron and it lets u do it again

[rancid sluice]

yes sire

[junior cairn]

How to fight for a knight against the beggar?

[stark hedge]

so you want to cut down the poor?

[junior cairn]

Yes

[karmic ore]

how do you counter the spiky bat of death in uc

[lapis wing]

Dang

[karmic ore]

when you dont have a spear

[lapis wing]

Dodge I guess

[naive holly]

Yeah you just gotta parry dat shi

Or wait for them to wiff

[lapis wing]

Actually how does aiming your sword work?

[karmic ore]

its just hard cuz like its SO spiky
hard to parry without it stabbing you in the hand or chest

[lapis wing]

I wanted to know that

No like what part of the sword is the control part

Idk how to explain

So what I actually move is the grip?

[naive holly]

You mean like the center of balance?

[lapis wing]

Yes

Ty

[naive holly]

You move your arms hands

[lapis wing]

Ah

I see

[rancid sluice]

i wonder if it's possible to beat the gauntlet using only peasant pitchfork

[naive holly]

So yeah the grip

Center of balance is just above the grip

[rancid sluice]

it's too strong

[lapis wing]

Aight ty bro

Imma try this

[mint nimbus]

does anyone feel like the whole getting up mechanic needs a overhaul or something, its so incredibly slow theres no real point half the time

[cobalt egret]

proof no bal;s

[naive holly]

Not entirely true, but it isn't super easy.

Then again irl you fall, most of the time your dead

I'll find a comeback clip

[rancid sluice]

i get what you mean

unless you're in like the really low tiers where the other willies do not know how to swing their weapons then you're fucked if you fall over

but that's pretty true to life

[mint nimbus]

thats true, but you'd at least try to roll around and do something tho haha

[rancid sluice]

i do think there needs to be better ways to get up maybe

instead of just sort of flopping up

[peak lava]

dont get hit, thats how

[stark hedge]

just... walk around it lol

[karmic ore]

they just point it at me bro 😭

[naive holly]

Definitely agree, quicker movement and more arm action would be ideal. You can use your arms they're just slow.

If you're concussed the current form makes sense but yeah, some more agility at the lower armor tiers

[karmic ore]

ik but ppl keep saying "dodge it"

[drifting mesa]

dodge it then

[peak lava]

its kinda like...you have to dodge it

to not get hit

[rancid sluice]

i know it's not helpful but dodging really is a skill you gotta develop

probably moreso than hitting even

[drifting mesa]

jk i belive in you you got this

heads up

[peak lava]

poke them b4 they poke you.

poke or be poked world

[rancid sluice]

yeah i think that's my problem is that even a fully stable willy takes like 10 seconds to get up

[drifting mesa]

are you playing firstperson all the time?

[peak lava]

I saw 3 inches of steel enter your cranium at the start.

still not high enough lvl to post pics in hereee 🥀

ugh

[karmic ore]

alr thx

[naive holly]

Pro tip to all, kicking while tipping over can help stabilize you.

Same goes for getting up, if you're like halfway up, kick and Willie will do a lil jump and land in his feet.

Not always but often enough

[peak lava]

best counter for everything, pull out a 9 mm

insert ash baby

to broke for gifs 😭

i dont no life this server T-T

i used to be in the vc then they removed them becuz of stupid people doing stupid things

[keen galleon]

Baron be like: I tripped you now I hit you til you die

[peak lava]

I have a really nice kill i put in game footage a while back

slipped a sword right under a spear, then stabbed right in the face

[drifting mesa]

what music are u listening to while playing?

[naive holly]

The ost

[rigid stirrup]

the ultimate challenge is making me want to do the gauntlet all over again

[naive holly]

Not the greatest example but it gets the point across

[rigid stirrup]

this shit is so ass

[peak lava]

the screams of the victims

[drifting mesa]

nice kink

i have enough screams in my head

[peak lava]

generational sell by redcoat bro

[fallow sentinel]

Bonked him good

[drifting mesa]

does someone here know curtain wall?

[peak lava]

"discombobulate" all I heard in my mind as he fell for some reason

[fallow sentinel]

lol

[rigid stirrup]

is there a way to save my gauntlet progress and also start a new one

[naive holly]

Sword is best bonk

[rose dock]

Monty Python skit.

[peak lava]

anything is a mace if youre brave enough

[drifting mesa]

i think i will rewatch now

aight imma head to sleep good night everyone

[peak lava]

blender cube jumpscare?

[stark hedge]

aight guys, ima go eepy sleepy, good night

[peak lava]

gn people on my screen

[peak lava]

that scene in scary movie of scream flaying his knife around

[urban jackal]

bruh

[peak lava]

damn, robbed

[urban jackal]

yes

chestplates are for weaklings

stupid shoulder shields man ☠️

[peak lava]

3 inches away from being a super cool kill in those first few seconds

[fallow sentinel]

Giant dagger bonk

[past pendant]

Guys. Holy moly. I remember seeing this game on my youtube shorts feed a long time ago and thinking it looked gimmicky, it didn't look natural, it looked like some people had bit off more than they could chew in terms of HEMA gameplay. A good while later, I see it on my youtube shorts again, and I think it looks way better. So I played it. This has gotten so insanely good. The combat on this is everything that Kingdom Come Deliverance wanted to be. I'm hooked.

[fallow sentinel]

delete this mess

[peak lava]

hes just yappin about how he likes the game

no harm

[urban jackal]

hes just appreciating the game

[past pendant]

Isn't that what this is for

I just wanted to give good feedback damn

[urban jackal]

nothing wrong

[fallow sentinel]

its like super long for no reason lol

[urban jackal]

though the first part looks like some copy paste

[urban jackal]

doesnt matter, he isnt annoying anyone

[past pendant]

I was just excited to try this game man holy shit.

[peak lava]

hating for no reason in 25

[past pendant]

I'm sorry that I offended you.

[quaint wolf]

Yeah the game is really good

[urban jackal]

ignore him

its fine

glad you enjoy the game anyway

[fallow sentinel]

i didnt hate its just long

[quaint wolf]

what's your problem lmao

way to crush a person for liking the game

professor dumbass

😭🙏

[peak lava]

well at least we know you arent accustomed to long things then

[past pendant]

Anyway I'll keep playing it, you guys have fun

[quaint wolf]

Have fun mate

[urban jackal]

bro probably has short ass attention span

[fallow sentinel]

i hope u know its because it seemed like copy n paste

[past pendant]

Appreciate it :) @quaint wolf @verbal estuary @urban jackal @peak lava

[fallow sentinel]

like it was an add for his youtube

[peak lava]

its over when he discovers full sentences

[naive holly]

Ignore that bro keep on doing you boss baby

[quaint wolf]

Why couldn't you read tho

[rancid sluice]

so you're saying you do have a short attention span lmao

[past pendant]

Hell yeah

[quaint wolf]

💔💔💔

[fallow sentinel]

dyslexic

[quaint wolf]

i know dyslexic people who can still read even with dyslexia bruv

[fallow sentinel]

i can read the beginning just seemed like an advert

[quaint wolf]

Just read the first few sentence

[naive holly]

These were in fact back to back and I'm still slobbering on the first clip

[quaint wolf]

mods, take this person's access to a device and turn him into willie

the queen request thy attendance

[urban jackal]

👍

[peak lava]

how long do yall think it will take moders to figure out how to put miku in this game somehow

[past pendant]

I don't have my own videos I just discovered this game through youtube shorts, I thought maybe other people had done that as well so I thought I should mention it

[quaint wolf]

the developer

[rancid sluice]

willy made this game

[naive holly]

I've just been using YouTube to clipdump lol it's actually really easy and useful

[urban jackal]

so you didnt bother to read the bottom

[fallow sentinel]

i did afterwards

[quaint wolf]

I'd use it on day 1

[balmy briar]

how do you do the gauntlet mode when i chose a class then click challange id doesnt work

[naive holly]

Hard but goated

[rancid sluice]

honestly they probably could do it by now anyway

[balmy briar]

ah

[rancid sluice]

although i'm pretty sure that the miku model has to have like integrated gore

which i'm sure would take a moment

[peak lava]

at this point im just trying to get to lvl 3 already so I can post stuff in here

[fallow sentinel]

look at giant dagger

[quaint wolf]

nudity? dudes just wanna see willie's willy swinging around like a sword 😭🙏

[balmy briar]

what do i do when i chose a class (sorry im clueless)

[peak lava]

"females" whyd that come off so weird to me

[quaint wolf]

play the game

[balmy briar]

ah so i cant use them yet

[rancid sluice]

idk man these fists certainly count as cannons

[peak lava]

I must report that willy in game is swordless T-T

[balmy briar]

ok thank you

[peak lava]

truly devastating ik

[quaint wolf]

Beggers boss lowkey annoying

[naive holly]

You can in free mode, which you select off to the right side

[quaint wolf]

why the hell do I get nothing and he gets an axe

[naive holly]

Hes actually the easiest imo

First two are pushovers

3 is an actual boss

[quaint wolf]

Short candle sticks vs A huge axe

[naive holly]

Everyone else is just polearm fodder

[rancid sluice]

three has got to be the hardest boss

[peak lava]

depends if he doesnt cut you in half with a lucky swing b4 you pick up a weapon

[rancid sluice]

every other boss can be knocked over and chopped up

[quaint wolf]

that's cause he is
dudes a bitch

[naive holly]

Gotta bait him away youre like twice as quick as him

[quaint wolf]

💔💔💔

[fallow sentinel]

how i enter the battle on a bad day

[quaint wolf]

i just wish you don't lose the entire tier cause it's actually annoying to grind all the way back up

[rancid sluice]

i still haven't beaten the gauntlet yet because i suck ass

[quaint wolf]

that's great mate

[rancid sluice]

i don't think i've ever seen an uninjured willy surrender like a bitch like this before

smartest willy i've encountered so far

[peak lava]

love it 👍

so when does the kissing update drop?

[rancid sluice]

willies with willy

[peak lava]

they will figure it out someday

[rancid sluice]

ouch

[peak lava]

moster cheif armor swap aint far behind either

[rancid sluice]

that's an impaling i really don't want to see in this game

[peak lava]

mod that makes blood white when

Chinese censoring

[rancid sluice]

mod that turns willy into winnie the pooh

willie the pooh

[peak lava]

willie emotes when

[tepid geyser]

I'm getting really good at fights against unarmored people

[peak lava]

all I hear is that your really good at punching children

[tepid geyser]

I'm fighting militiamen

[peak lava]

I wonder if muti player will ever be a thing, phys make it impossible ik

[rancid sluice]

splitscreen could work fine

it's just internet multiplayer that would likely be impossible

[peak lava]

yea

to much phys stuff

gladio's muti player sucks, can barely support 10 players wo laggn out the ass

damn realy?

[tepid geyser]

10

fuck

i meant to put 10

[oblique yacht]

how do i get the creator role?

[peak lava]

8/10

[oblique yacht]

i am

[peak lava]

finally lvl 2

so close yet so farrr

[oblique yacht]

im streaming the game right now

[peak lava]

think you gott meet a following requirement b4 they give you the role

lets not, he might just be a little slow, dont tellem to do that

[oblique yacht]

is that the only place i can share the stream? in the creator channel

[peak lava]

I love when I srecording

[oblique yacht]

not a idiot guys come on now

[tepid geyser]

Any tips for fighting godendags?

[peak lava]

im sure its written somewhere

how to get creatorthing

just look around

[cursive fjord]

He is most definitely injured, he's limping.

[dull iron]

hi

[peak lava]

sup

metal is only hard flesh, swing hard enough youll makem bleed

[dull iron]

i've managed somehow to take out the helmet to a willie ¿was that posible?

since when is possible?

[rancid sluice]

idek what was happening i was just landing constant throat-shots

[dull iron]

and is it a way to repeat it? is it like a technique or something?

[amber whale]

hey guys how many times have you beaten the tournament

im at 7 rn

[rancid sluice]

could also be a lot of blunt damage to the head

[oblique yacht]

hey everyone im streaming the game right now where could i link the stream

[amber whale]

im tryna get to 10 tournament wins

[dull iron]

when i play the tournament in the last challenge at the end when the baron arrives mi game crashes says fatal error and closes

i've managed to complete it 1 time but it crashed when the baron was almost dead

[amber whale]

damn

ive encountered a bug twice where even after the baron dies or surrenders the game doesnt give me the win

so my actual win count is at 9

[knotty wind]

just crashed during final trial because an enemy dropped 3 armor pieces at once

[chilly pecan]

who ping me

yeah just use the steam recording feature

[hidden zephyr]

This is so funny

[idle garnet]

“You may be wondering how I got into this situation” ahh photo

[hidden zephyr]

the Willie on the left is looking over wondering what he is looking at

[hidden zephyr]

That other Willie's POV

It got worse

💀

[slate plume]

is there much of a difference between the itch version and steam?

[rose dock]

I did like ages ago.

[chilly pecan]

what for

[rose dock]

This.

[chilly pecan]

skill issue

[hidden zephyr]

real

[rose dock]

Me when the.

I do high and get 80ish FPS.

Reasonable.

the mutation procedure rendered willie sterile

[silk current]

no, the warcrime stick is the stick with all the spikes coming out of it, ive seen people call is both a goedendag and a plancion

[willow linden]

I love that stick

[silk current]

i refuse to use it because it is a crime against god

[serene tulip]

I just have a 4070ti but the 98000x3d probably helps lol

[ocean rune]

I

BEAT

IT

not like that

i won

i have baron

get good

not about the quality of the weapon, but the quality of the user

[serene tulip]

I don't think I wanna fight this guy anymore... I'm a little scared

[rose dock]

Does anyone else think playing on a lower damage is more fun?

[serene tulip]

oh absolutely

[rose dock]

Good.

[serene tulip]

if by lower damage, you mean the NPCs receive less that is

[burnt smelt]

Not a goedendag.

[cerulean cloud]

Thread ripper so ass

[silk current]

yeah i know it isnt, but people have called it that

[cerulean cloud]

Lowerr dmg better for sharp weapons

[burnt smelt]

Thread ripper? You mean just hack and slash their drip

[cerulean cloud]

For blunt I prefer high dmg

[rose dock]

I set it is so both are equal.

[serene tulip]

I used to do that but I've gradually been lowering the damage NPCs recieve to keep the fights much more entertaining

[cerulean cloud]

I just get annoyed when i hit someone 30 times and it doesn't do shit

[silk current]

you can kinda simulate training with fake weapons by setting damage to low and disabling blood/gore

[serene tulip]

discovered willie's heart

[silk current]

ye the gore is gnarly

[tranquil rampart]

i feel like ive hit the skill point with this game where ive started to see the lines between the code of the matrix. im just doing shit now and its working.

[serene tulip]

Longsword suddenly clicked for me and it's been so fun

[silk current]

the longsword is my favorite weapon, but until somewhat recently i didnt know how to parry with it

[tranquil rampart]

ive known that for months,im at the point where i just got to the axe man with only my foot

[past pendant]

Jesus the first boss is so much harder than all the next ones imo

[tranquil rampart]

try kicking him

[past pendant]

I get stuck on that for so long : /

How do you kick? I was looking for the controls for it but i couldnt find them anywhere in the menu

[silk current]

not really, i find the third boss to be the hardest in the first half of the stages

its spacebar

[tranquil rampart]

space bar

[past pendant]

okay i'll try

[tranquil rampart]

that was a joke btw lol

[past pendant]

but i dont even have a weapon

[tranquil rampart]

i will slay him with my toes

[red moth]

[tranquil rampart]

floor

[silk current]

they updated it so that weapons spawn around on the ground in the 1st boss fight

[tranquil rampart]

or just grab em

i always just whack em

[willow linden]

You can press E to pick something up

[tranquil rampart]

i hate running around tryna grab shit

[silk current]

yeah ngl before that update id just run up and punch the hell outta him

[past pendant]

yeah i have beaten him a few times by picking something up but even the stuff on the ground is still way worse than what he has

[tranquil rampart]

its too finicky rn

[past pendant]

theres like a chair

[silk current]

believe in the power of the iron candlestick

[tranquil rampart]

candlestick and stool are the best weapons in the game /gen

[willow linden]

there's always a knife

[past pendant]

ive had the best luck stabbing him with the bottom end of the candlestick so far

[tranquil rampart]

call me a proctologist because i appreciate stool

[willow linden]

ok

[serene tulip]

First boss is easy, just knife tackle

[crude flower]

Axe boss is easy because he has a really big wind up

[silk current]

yeah the knife is also good, hold alt, sprint forward, believe in the heart of the steel, and hope you can stab him before he cleaves you in twain

[crude flower]

You keep distance, go for the hit, he winds up, easy opening to hit him anywhere

[silk current]

a single decent knife stab ends any fight

[crude flower]

And it's slow enough to run away as well

[tranquil rampart]

hold two bucklers, get a helmet and gauntlet and you can punch anything to deaht

[past pendant]

HAHA I DID IT WITH THE KNIFE

i wanted to post a screenshot but i dont have image perms i think

just run at him and stab him in the chest. okay

[willow linden]

you can post in photography

[crude flower]

You gotta be level 3

Just talk more

NO

[tranquil rampart]

that kills most people

usually

would kill me

[crude flower]

only if you use the built in camera feature

[past pendant]

I posted it in the photography channel now

I got him. On the first try.

[crude flower]

You can't post screenshots in photo

[serene tulip]

I believe in stab supremacy, but this guy scares me, I don't wanna fight him. He has mutated to be impervious to stabs

[silk current]

Fun Fact: Did you know that at least 9/10 people are highly allergic to having a sharp steel blade lodged in their chest

[past pendant]

Sorry if I broke a rule

My bad

[crude flower]

Nah it's cool

Just remember for next time is all

[tranquil rampart]

too bad banned for 1 milliongiga years

sent to the little idiot corner for dumb babies

[past pendant]

: (

[silk current]

dont be mean

[past pendant]

I'll figure out the photo mode for next time

It's okay I am a baby after all

[tranquil rampart]

sorry, was sarcasm

[past pendant]

No it's fine.

[silk current]

i consider myself an accomplished half sword photographer, one of my posts once got... 8 upvotes I think?

[tranquil rampart]

i am a very facetious person take nothing i say seriously

[silk current]

well, 7 if you dont count the initial bot upvote

[serene tulip]

I just like the funny pictures

[tranquil rampart]

put my fav axeman kill in #game-footage-🎮🎥

[willow linden]

can you forward it or repost it, I wish to see it

[serene tulip]

I call this one "trying to form a deeper connection with your other part"

[tranquil rampart]

LMAO

[silk current]

not really sure how to link it and i dont have image perms here

[willow linden]

ah

[tranquil rampart]

i love how artistic and purposeful everything in this looks

i kinda wanna draw that

i love the blood spatter

[silk current]

#photography📷 message does that work?

ah it does appear to have worked

[serene tulip]

I call this one "The Destruction and Rebirth of Symmetry"

[tranquil rampart]

@serene tulip do i have your good graces 🙏

[serene tulip]

yeah go for it

just make sure to show me after

[tranquil rampart]

thanks boss <3 if i ever get to it i will!!!

[silk current]

i did this kinda funny one #photography📷 message

[tranquil rampart]

ima try to kick the axeman to deaht and post it here rq

[silk current]

i mean if you wanna see all my photos you can just type from:jarokr in the search bar

[serene tulip]

This one is titled "it could've been worse"

[silk current]

lol

this is one of my best ones #photography📷 message

[willow linden]

I don't really have many good photos, probably because my PC would explode if I went on anything higher than medium

[silk current]

that's pretty similar to how i fight, but i almost always use a low guard with swords

[foggy talon]

gonna try and play on higher graphics

:)

[silk current]

i play on high graphics

i run on high with lag spikes and maybe 30-40 FPS before anything happens, it goes down... quite a lot once people start bleeding

[willow linden]

I run it on low so I can get more frames

[silk current]

thats fair

[willow linden]

And also I get about 20-30 fps on medium

[foggy talon]

i think i literally kicked a guy in the balls

and he died

[willow linden]

I play on a ok laptop

[foggy talon]

dude in armor

[silk current]

i play with an Acer Nitro 5 laptop with a GTX 1050 Ti

[tranquil rampart]

i got a 3060 specifically to run half sword||(and oblivion)||

[amber whale]

i play on intel uhd

720p lowest gameplay

at 10fps

[willow linden]

damn bro

[amber whale]

well actually 20 fps against unarmored

20 - 30

[crude flower]

Are you sure it's gonna run oblivion

[amber whale]

im getting new pc in a few months so it's not all bad

[silk current]

id like to have a better PC some day but im poor

[willow linden]

same

[foggy talon]

FUCK DUDE

thanks for spoilering thats really disturbing

[silk current]

not really

it just looks kinda goofy to me

[silent stag]

Are half sword characters going to stay bald or are they getting hair someday

[foggy talon]

i was being sarcastic

or was i

[silk current]

ah

[foggy talon]

no hair allowed

[silk current]

you see, im only fluent in verbal sarcasm, not text-based sarcasm

[silent stag]

Where when I need to see that, I hope it's willie with a shaggy hairstyle

[deep path]

"Oh sorry. Lemme just grab that real quick."

[willow linden]

lol

[tender quest]

oh yeah? well

[silk current]

damn nice hit

[bronze dust]

I love it when this one bug happens because then I get to do stupid shit like this

it's the simple things that bring me joy

[silent stag]

Half sword would be a better game if we had more maps like in the itch.io, more gamemodes and willie being properly nourished

[silk current]

willie would not be willie without the malnourishment

[bronze dust]

what is willie if not the common peasant

[silent stag]

What about this willie

[silk current]

it is an essential part of his character

[silent stag]

[thorn palm]

Game crashed right as i was fighting baren and almost won

thinking about ending it

[silk current]

that is an unholy crime against god that probably should be burned

[silent stag]

I wonder how old is willie

[rose dock]

I’d say 22-25.

[willow linden]

I was thinking he was mid twenties

[silent stag]

Bro was being aggressive just to inmediately fold himself right after

[silk current]

that happens

[past pendant]

how do i fight a scythe? really struggling with that one

[silent stag]

Close distance and push it to the side

[silk current]

simple. outrange it. if thats not an option, uh... just rush in with a pointy stabby thing and stab him

[past pendant]

okay i did nto really have a charge in and stab weapon

i had like a little farm tool thing

[tender quest]

run in so the sharp bit cant hit you

[silent stag]

I guess he just had a harsh life (dude looks 40 atleast)

Scythe is not even the shadow of what it used to be

[willow linden]

I always try to get the 2 handed axe

[silk current]

the pitchfork is the best peasant weapon and you cannot convince me otherwise

[past pendant]

pitchfork is great. i feel like i can easily win every win

[silent stag]

Long stick with deadly end always win

[past pendant]

just stick it out as far as possible and as soon as they touch it just run forward

easy peasy

[willow linden]

It looks like an axe

So I call it an axe

[rose dock]

Not really imo.

[silk current]

thats because it is an axe???

[willow linden]

oh ok

whenever I use it it slices people into 2 or more pieces

[silk current]

yeah its good at doing that

[tender quest]

I keep telling myself next time i die im going to bed, but i keep ending up doing all nighters...

[silent stag]

Axe isn't that good

[willow linden]

I agree

[thorn palm]

nvm i won the next game

[silk current]

i love half sword, but i couldnt even imagine pulling an all-nighter playing nothing but half sword

[tender quest]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-meeseeks-rick-and-morty-gif-18325280

[silent stag]

Yeah but we're talking about peasant

In the armored tiers we already have better axes

[silk current]

good job

[willow linden]

Pitchfork is undeniably the best in peasant

Not my favorite though

[uncut sleet]

sickle?

[silent stag]

I think thrusting needs to be improved a lot

[past pendant]

yeah like that

[silent stag]

Looks evil but actually does baby dmg in game

[past pendant]

im also struggling a bit with aiming my stabs

feel like theyre all a bit too low

[silent stag]

[uncut sleet]

not very stabby but it is very stick-inny

[silent stag]

Sickle needs a buff

[silk current]

my personal favorite peasant weapon is the weird 2-handed thing with a curved blade on one side and a flat axe-like blade on the back

[uncut sleet]

u can do a gentle overhead and it will get hooked into crook of neck/shoulder

[silent stag]

That's a peasant billhook

[uncut sleet]

can definitely rip someone apart with it

[silk current]

is it really a billhook if its only like 2 or 3 feet long?

[uncut sleet]

imo nothing sharp needs a buff and all cutting needs to be more difficult

duller sharp stuff or tougher skin

[silent stag]

Even this is a billhook

[uncut sleet]

^

they're like a multitoll

[silk current]

what is that tool even called irl

[uncut sleet]

multitool*

[silent stag]

Billhook

[silk current]

theres no way that billhook is the tool's actual name

[uncut sleet]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billhook#:~:text=It is distinct from the sickle. It,an important variety of traditional local patterns.

[silk current]

oh.

i guess the weapon was named after the tool?

[uncut sleet]

billhook as a polearm type weapon was basically just putting a billhook on a long stick

[uncut sleet]

named after or adapted from

[silk current]

welp im gonna head off to bed, goodnight y'all

[uncut sleet]

goodbye bird

[willow linden]

gn

[silent stag]

They did something similar with scythes

It's just a scythe with the blade at 90 degrees

[keen galleon]

I have a new found love for the knife

I love lunging at people and stabing them on the ground until they die

It's close, it's personal

[deep path]

A clean halfsword thrust is one of my favorite things

[tranquil rampart]

was thinking, does anyone think it would be neat if the willies that surrender change their mind sometimes when you turn your back? feels unrealistic how they stare at me like goats...

[keen galleon]

I got in a knife dual

I won

Stab stab stab

[tranquil rampart]

i would enjoy being backstabbeed, retribution for all the willies ive wantonly genocided

huh

wym

[deep path]

But without honor we have nothing

[willow linden]

how many of y'all actually use arrow time

[tranquil rampart]

i have shown these willies no honor, and i deserve none in return

oh ye

oh wait that would be cool

maybe like

the more sportmanship you have and the more honorable you fight the less chance for a feint or backstab

and the more dirty tricks you pull the more likely they are to ufck you up

idk

[deep path]

Fair, I try to fight with honor till someone shows up with a spiked club. Then they get to die

[tranquil rampart]

oh is this idea actually something??

[willow linden]

I just stabbed 3 people to death

[tranquil rampart]

i aws just saying shit

[craggy forum]

I once said plate armour in this chat and got bullied by 3 people. 10/10

[tranquil rampart]

im way too stupid to turn this hsit into a thread

[foggy talon]

just punched a fully armored man in the face for a knockout

[tranquil rampart]

wait i think i can do it

[foggy talon]

i lost my weapon and just starting wailing on him

[tranquil rampart]

shazam

[paper falcon]

I usually use it on the boss fights only, especially the commoner boss

[tepid geyser]

I'm outranging these nerds

[red moth]

my new highscore is 50

PLASMADIC CHALLENGE

• FREE MODE
• VETERAN
• 1 LOADOUT ONLY
• 100 KILLS
• NO DEATHS
• NO MODS

i will still aim for 100

[tepid geyser]

I love axes!

They're so gorey!

[tranquil rampart]

idk if i added all the stuff you thought of but i made the thread

:3

looking at halfsword gifs accidentally clikced one </3

[frail forge]

https://tenor.com/view/me-too-kid-gif-19596970

[tepid geyser]

I love axes cause they delimb well :)

One good swing and BAM

They're DEAD.

died to a hoe

Do commoners get a axe weapon?

[tranquil rampart]

axes were my friend until i found pitchfork,,, the allure of abusing momentum

[tranquil rampart]

you can use the previous class to fight the commoner battles

thats what i do

you get +1 point to

*too

[tepid geyser]

nice

Went up against a hoe. Binded against him.
Half sworded; slit his FUCKING THROATNECK.

[frail forge]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/677001514375446567/1364417835669131365/cool.gif

[bronze dust]

throatneck? mfer thinks he's a skaven

[frail forge]

how i feel when slit throatneck

[median haven]

'ultimate challenge' where the ultimate challenge is to not have the game encounter a fatal error and crash randomly

[frail forge]

brother how are you so strong

[median haven]

the chromatic aberration makes my eyes hurt danm

your willie or npc willies

[ember ledge]

Because fps is tied to the physics engine

[ember ledge]

I hope by God they’ll change that

[willow linden]

i only have 11.5 hours in half sword, i got the game 3 days ago, is this good or not

[frail forge]

good to know

[median haven]

not enough

[willow linden]

ah

ill spend another 5 ingame tonight

[median haven]

oh yeah well i have infinity hours

i have infinity x2 plus 1

[pearl ferry]

i discovered a never before seen weapon and it has a black hole ability

[median haven]

damn

[median haven]

half sword analog horror 😱

new scp just dropped

you do not recognize the willies in the abyss

i think there might be a channel for these types of in game photographs

[minor oasis]

photography channel right down there lol

[median haven]

good point, but i think a photo-worthy moment happens about that often

[hidden zephyr]

idk why, but my game runs fine normally, but instantly crashes when I enter the abyss

[median haven]

game's just like that

which directx version are you running

[hidden zephyr]

directx?

[median haven]

it's in the settings

[hidden zephyr]

lemme check rq

[median haven]

for some people changing the version of directx fixes some bugs

the game is in early access so expect these kinds of issues

[hidden zephyr]

I have to open Half Sword rq

[median haven]

k

you can also verify integrity of game files on steam in case something's wrong there

[rose dock]

Based.

Challenge mode blows.

[median haven]

how come

[hidden zephyr]

RHI_DXsubscriptII

[median haven]

i agree i just want to know hear problems with it

[median haven]

try changing it

[hidden zephyr]

ok

[median haven]

that might work

but it probably won't

check task manager; does it do anything weird when you enter the abyss? when it crashes, is there an error message?

[hidden zephyr]

uhm, is there a way to change it back without opening the game?

[median haven]

you have to be in game, change the setting, and then reopen the game

[hidden zephyr]

oh. . .

[median haven]

something happen?

[hidden zephyr]

My PC Doesn't have a graphics card 😄

[median haven]

ohhhhh

[hidden zephyr]

so I get this

[median haven]

hm

i think the issue is with your lack of graphics card

[hidden zephyr]

yeah, lol

[median haven]

yeah what video settings were you running before

[hidden zephyr]

All default

And I use medium gor and blood

[median haven]

so first of all just some performance tips

blood is absurdly taxing on your computer

i have it at like 20%

and the framerate cap you choose will affect performance

[hidden zephyr]

I run very smoothly with a time slow mod

[median haven]

are you sure the issue isn't with the mod then?

[wide yarrow]

just change it to dx11

[hidden zephyr]

it isn't. i have been having the issue for a while

[hidden zephyr]

It was before

[median haven]

what operating system?

[hidden zephyr]

Steam

[median haven]

i'm grasping at straws here i don't really know how to help

operating system is like your whole computer - think macos, linux, windows

[hidden zephyr]

oh, Windows

[median haven]

i don't really know what the issue is then

try verifying the integrity of the game files through steam

[hidden zephyr]

I will do that, but right now I am just reinstalling the game to set it back to default settings

So I can open the game

[median haven]

that also works

achieves the same effect

[hidden zephyr]

real

Basically turning it off and on

[median haven]

when the game crashes in the abyss, does it display an error message?

[hidden zephyr]

fatal error

[median haven]

hmm

[hidden zephyr]

sometimes a it lenghtier, but it tpically says Fatal Error

[median haven]

when it's lengthier, what does it say

[hidden zephyr]

unsure, I have only seen it once

I will attempt to trigger it so you know

oh, shoot, it didn't reset the settings to default

[median haven]

people often encounter the Fatal Error when they're playing in the ultimate challenge; the message is vague though, so it might just be a general crash notice. #1047240101152960525 has a thread where you can report crashes, you might want to check that out

[median haven]

uh oh

try removing it from your library?

something like that

look up how to do it i'm not sure

[hidden zephyr]

Ima try that

[dusty sparrow]

server

give unto me your wisdom

[hidden zephyr]

so. . that didn't work either. . .

[median haven]

oh

my apologies

it's probably some config file stored on your computer

might be in the appdata folder?

[hidden zephyr]

hmm, and how will I know what I am looking for?

[verbal mantle]

Does anybody actually spare the NPCs when they surrender?

[median haven]

i'm not sure, sorry

[median haven]

yes

saves time

[verbal mantle]

Y'all out here speedrunning???

[median haven]

no i mean

[hidden zephyr]

welp, my Half Sword is unplayable until I can get a graphics card ig

[median haven]

when being chased by many men

[median haven]

an experience i often encounter

[verbal mantle]

I take them all out and ritualistically execute them one after another

[median haven]

sometimes the blood god has had enough to drink ok

[past pendant]

any tips for when you get in just a straight wrestling match? seems like whoever goes to ground always loses but in most of my grapples its just a 50/50

[median haven]

pray

[past pendant]

okay so it is just 50/50

[hidden zephyr]

hold LMB/RMB, and move your mouse left to right rapidly

[past pendant]

okay okay

[verbal mantle]

Pray the NPC has received more brain damage than your guy

[hidden zephyr]

and punch em to death

[median haven]

that usually results in tiring yourself out

i often grab them with the right hand

does smth to their ai makes them pause

let my left hand go down and then do a sudden left hook

for some reason it does a ton of damage

like you want your hand to go from your side to a hook immediately, not the fighting stance

[past pendant]

with the bosses with long weapons i wanna get in close but if i dont kill them right away, we end up grappling. and the bosses are so tall they usually end up winning that

[median haven]

you get more movement

[paper falcon]

Left hook has always been OP for some reason

[median haven]

yes, it’s bogus

main strategies are: polearm to the groin

that’s it

and the worst part is that willie can’t hold a stick straight to save his life

literally

[hidden zephyr]

I like half swording their face, grabbing their hand with my left hand, then slowly dragging the sword out of their eye socket

[hidden zephyr]

And doing this :d

[median haven]

haha i’d do that if their gamebeson didn’t absorb all of my hits

oh yes

my favorite was getting two little candelabras

and hugging my opponents to death

lord tier’s halberd is crap

replace it with big candelabra

[median haven]

mouse detected

illegal

[hidden zephyr]

What I do to cranky people who want my money

Body Pile 😄

[median haven]

foursome

[mint wadi]

Hey halfsword chat. Another slow motion for you here.

It's very dramatic. Music and all.

[median haven]

6/10 they should have kissed

[mint wadi]

Did you not see them kissing

[median haven]

also being in the opposite guard gave me anxiety

[mint wadi]

They were definitely kissing.

[median haven]

must be a sad kiss

they couldn’t look in each others eyes

what's the mod for slow-mo?

[hidden zephyr]

My favorite guard is Fools' Guards

[hidden zephyr]

I use HS Enhancer, unsure about him

[median haven]

until i misjudge the distance and get slashed in the throatneck

[median haven]

where doth one obtain this HS enhancer

nexusmods?

[hidden zephyr]

nexusmods

[median haven]

k

[hidden zephyr]

I also use it to summon my big Candlestick to all of my knight fights

[mint wadi]

Half Sword Enhancer by TheGhost590 on Nexus Mods.

[median haven]

that's mid!!1

[hidden zephyr]

I still have no idea how to make myself big

[median haven]

uses a bajillion stamina

weird filter

[hidden zephyr]

yes, but costs stamina

[median haven]

not even that slow

[dusty sparrow]

Slow mode deadass cheating

[hidden zephyr]

With HS enhancer, you can slow it to .01 speed

[dusty sparrow]

they gotta remove it and the abyss

make the game unfathomably hard

[median haven]

easy, but not that useful in my experience

[dusty sparrow]

make death uninstall the game permanently

[hidden zephyr]

NO

[dusty sparrow]

also make it so every reinstall is a 100 gb of buffer files

[median haven]

they're joking

[median haven]

just the april fools video on repeat

[hidden zephyr]

Cinematic shots

[median haven]

it looks cool

[dusty sparrow]

the only april fools update that stayed

https://tenor.com/view/fade-away-oooooooooooo-aga-emoji-crumble-gif-20008708

[median haven]

i've played the game enough to the point that parrying isn't really a problem

my main issue

is that willie's controls are finnicky and unresponsive

like i'll slash in one direction and willie just doesn't

or i'll aim downwards and miss the guy sitting right there

[hidden zephyr]

I don't know how to enter any guard other than Fools'

[median haven]

hold left click

[dusty sparrow]

none of the other guards are useful

[median haven]

i use it to do spin kicks and then trip and fall and die immediately afterwards because it uses all my stamina

[dusty sparrow]

They need to let me zwerchcopter

[hidden zephyr]

I mean idk how to use them

[median haven]

play blade and sorcery

[dusty sparrow]

i do actual hema on saturdays

[median haven]

no i trip over them

because i have no idea how to spin kick

exactly

yeah

[dusty sparrow]

they should add jumping

let me jump

i wanna dunk on a mf

[median haven]

critical hit

[dusty sparrow]

hell yea

[hidden zephyr]

Got it back to 11

[past pendant]

Holy shit I think i just pole vaulted over somebody with my spear

I ran into them and my spear was shoving their head into the ground

[median haven]

directx?

[dusty sparrow]

j

just

use 12???

[median haven]

they can’t

[hidden zephyr]

yup

[dusty sparrow]

oh

[median haven]

their computer physically does not allow it

[dusty sparrow]

That’s very unfortunate

Sorry for your loss

[median haven]

what’s so good about directx 12

[hidden zephyr]

No graphics card 😮‍💨

[rose dock]

Dx12 is a pain in the ass.

[median haven]

never bothered to change

[dusty sparrow]

better

[rose dock]

Nothing at all, it is worse.

[dusty sparrow]

more efficient for me man

works good

[median haven]

3 to 1 here

[dusty sparrow]

jesus had worse odds and he stood tall.

[median haven]

i’m not christian so respectfully i do not care

[rose dock]

The main thing with Dx12 is that it allows for raytracing and as such has worse performance than Dx11.

[hidden zephyr]

I changed it back to 11 by doing this btw

[dusty sparrow]

wait dx12 causes crashing

[median haven]

so that’s why my game struggles with dx11, and kills itself with dx12

[dusty sparrow]

i…

wow.

my pc has been having errors stemming from SOMETHING in my PC

[median haven]

yeah i thought maybe something with the launch options would work but didnt bother finding out how

[rose dock]

It is also entirely unusable with some ReShade addons that I need for photos so another reason to avoid it.

[dusty sparrow]

i hope it isnt dx12

[hidden zephyr]

I used google

[median haven]

what if it is??? and the spirit of dx12 haunts your computer ooooooo….. spooky

[rose dock]

What?

[dusty sparrow]

my pc actually bricks

[median haven]

so am i

[dusty sparrow]

like frequently blue screens

[remote ferry]

anyone else use mouse and controller

[rose dock]

Bruh

[median haven]

how old this computer

[median haven]

that actually sounds like it could work

[dusty sparrow]

7 years

[remote ferry]

its my setup for exanima and it works here too

[hidden zephyr]

I have only blue screened once

[median haven]

what os

[dusty sparrow]

windows 10

[remote ferry]

i have outer ring on left stick set to shift so i can still dodge

[dusty sparrow]

next pc i make is linux

[median haven]

i applaud your ingenuity

[dusty sparrow]

fuck windows 11

[median haven]

just install linux now my friend

[dusty sparrow]

how

[median haven]

uninstall windows

install linux

go to any linux distro’s website

[dusty sparrow]

give me a step by step instruction man

[median haven]

they have a guide

[dusty sparrow]

write me a manifesto

[median haven]

google search “how to install Linux?”

[dusty sparrow]

nah i want you to do it

[median haven]

okay one moment

[dusty sparrow]

im gonna go take a nap @ me when he’s back

[median haven]

https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/install-ubuntu-desktop#1-overview

all me

i wrote that

[boreal merlin]

Has anyone else ever had the glitch where you pick team buhurt and the willies on the enemy team all start fighting each other

[median haven]

yes

it’s quite silly

[dusty sparrow]

nap broken

and for WHAT?

[mint wadi]

STANDING HERE, I REALIZE

I like non gauntlet more.

Gives a more human vibe.

[median haven]

is there a setting to disable willie’s ai and make him just stand there

while you realize

yes that’s what i mean

get the greenscreen health overlay from the game

[mint wadi]

Like this.

[median haven]

and superimpose it onto halfsword

[dusty sparrow]

I hope they can mod in crossbows

[median haven]

it might actually look more faithful to the original if you do third person too

[mint wadi]

He is off to see his people...as a head...

He looks....He kinda looks like that guy from that imaginary circus cartoon lol

[feral sundial]

make the king 20 dollars to play in online matches

[mint wadi]

Bro this looks like it belongs in Amid Evil or some shit lol

[median haven]

the possibilities for half sword ARG are increasing by the minute

halloween update maybe?

spooky……

[rose dock]

S+ tier shot.

Bit over sharpened and bright but really good.

[median haven]

put that in photography it’s good

[rose dock]

I have been mag dumping shots in #photography📷 since I joined. xD

[mint wadi]

Thank you thank you.

am now heading to bed.

Have a good night halfcord chat.

[median haven]

good night john

[crude flower]

https://tenor.com/view/funny-gif-13671029827782786753

Funny bug

[summer pollen]

bucketed

or basketed ig

[pallid isle]

Yo why did they make another physics engine like 90% of the bugs are because of this new engine

[serene tulip]

when you ask the barber for a little off the top

[hidden zephyr]

I JUST DELKIVERED MY FIRST DECAPITATION!

[serene tulip]

How was it, how did it make you feel? Did you desire... more? Did you think it wasn't enough? Should all be cut up and filleted?

[hidden zephyr]

yes

[split pulsar]

me when i finally have an advantage but i step on someones old weapon and it breaks my leg.

[hidden zephyr]

real

[split pulsar]

i've been attempting this gauntlet

for

weeks

[fossil drift]

how do i play that gamemode caseoh is playing? the one with multiple waves that keep spawning

in the arena

[hidden zephyr]

That is the final level of Gauntlet

[fossil drift]

ohhhh ok

[hidden zephyr]

Go dual axes

[woven coyote]

i just want to mod this game and add a katana so its practiacl meanming no double edge only the main edge works-

[rare hearth]

i mean, if you can figure out how to mod a katana into the game, go for it #modders-guild-hall

[dire relic]

I am half swording itttt

[errant glade]

I beat the Baron in the abyss, so I finished the game? I saw came new enemies next his death

[stiff belfry]

oh hell naw why is there a house in the abyss

[calm quarry]

[scenic narwhal]

Yes, all willies who use those have lost all good in them.

[edgy jacinth]

fuck a plancon

[long grotto]

Anyone else experiencing frequent crashes?

[bronze dust]
