[restive barn]

buster sword

[west eagle]

how do i get out of the abyss

[restive barn]

buster sword v2

[mortal granite]

halfsword just crashed like 3 minutes into the final challenge they don't want me to win

[thorny iris]

How do I stop the gauntlet from resetting every time I quit the game?

[wise canyon]

Mmf, that's a nice table

[wise canyon]

Yes, more table please

[restive barn]

big falchion

https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/71

[wise canyon]

Oh I was hoping it'd look like this

[restive barn]

haha, no

[wise canyon]

Why the laugh? This is more accurate

[restive barn]

i know but its boring

[wise canyon]

Boring? It's way more interesting than that big fuck off anime sword you've got instead

[zenith lichen]

how do i play free mode?

[restive barn]

its literally a falchion wth a knucklebow

[zenith lichen]

the onlu option i have is abyss

[wise canyon]

Press the freemode button

[wise canyon]

Yours is just a thick flat steel bar

[restive barn]

fine u want a historical bustersword?

[zenith lichen]

i do that and it lets me chose a character type , but how do i start the game? the only option in the bottom middle is still abyss

[wise canyon]

That's exactly what I'm not asking for

I wanted a historically accurate two-handed falchion

Also unrelated, my half sword keeps getting fatal error on launch suddenly. What do

[zenith lichen]

do you have to reach a certain score in abyss before you can use free mode?

ahh

[wise canyon]

What no

I've never beaten the abyss and I had access to free mdode day 1

[zenith lichen]

like i said , i can choose a character but when i try to play it just takes me to abyss with a naked player each time

kill the character in the menu same thing

[wise canyon]

Well killing the character in the menu sends you to the abyss anyway

[zenith lichen]

i dont have a start battle button

i have an abyss button in the middle and thats it

[wise canyon]

It's the Play Demo Button

[zenith lichen]

ahhhhhh

[runic karma]

The risks of an unprotected hand

[wise canyon]

Ah, so much better, thanks. But wheres the table?

[restive barn]

oh eight

right

hold on

[wise canyon]

eight?

[astral tiger]

Does it count damage to an already severed limb ?

[restive barn]

2H falc

[wise canyon]

yis

[wise canyon]

Cut off a limb and keep hitting it and see if the other fighter reacts

[runic karma]

Did I just hit bro with my sword aura, not a single drop of blood on my blade

Even willy is using tunnel effect

The knee violator

(Bro got hit like a chisel)

[spark cloud]

if i already beat the gauntlet mode can i go back and redo it? what happens if i play as an old rank and lose?

[glass orbit]

How do I save my progress in gauntlet

[runic karma]

Didin't even cut through its just willys strength

Is this supposed to be tuff🥀😭

[dapper trail]

it was kinda sarcastic

🥀 🥀 😭 🪫 🥀

[small dove]

bonk

[cursive fjord]

Oh... That's peak...

[vernal osprey]

how tf do u get a table

[small dove]

if one bonk doesnt suffice, attempt to bonk twice

[winged moon]

im so fed up of crashing over and over when im doing the final rober baron challenge. my graphics are low, blood is off, everything updated i just dont know anymore bru

[vernal osprey]

guys when i open halfsword enhancer why does it say that it detected some trojan virus or sum and it even got deleted from my whole pc

[thorny iris]

Emphasized

[supple burrow]

can someone help me with something

[waxen lance]

stop dying in gauntlet

[small dove]

fork

[wise canyon]

I think you attempted bonk roughly 47 times

[small dove]

and i only got a good hit twice

uppercut of removal

[wise canyon]

Yes but you tried like 47 times

[small dove]

bonkus

[waxen lance]

psst

jump scae3r

[wise canyon]

ahh

[waxen lance]

correct me if I'm wrong but the little folds here of the armor protruding deflect blows, no?

[wise canyon]

Yeah they stop thrusts and swings from glancing off the shoulders and into the head

[small dove]

clean bonk?

[waxen lance]

it annoys me that they dont have collision ingame...

most helmets actually lack proper collision tbh

[wise canyon]

Something I'm sure will be fixed soon. The devs attentionn for detail and passion for historical martial arts is pretty clear. They'll sort that if/when they're able to

[waxen lance]

yeah, hopefully

I really want those helmets without the rear neck protection to be death traps if I get a blade behind their helmet, I want to actually be able to hook under their helmet...

[wise canyon]

Need more gorget's

[waxen lance]

yes

[small dove]

can you DIE

[waxen lance]

I personally added secondary neck protection to my EMPEROR loadout because the armet has a gap near the base of the helmet where theres no armor

(collision bug, probably)

[waxen lance]

this is with the neck chain things

[wise canyon]

You mean maille?

Also when maille is attached to a helmet it's called an aventail

[small dove]

yaa

[waxen lance]

yeah

theres a gap where it meets

[waxen lance]

I fight the baron sometimes in my offtime

I win though

[stark moss]

why are axes like twice as strong as swords

[waxen lance]

canonically accurate

[stark moss]

even poking them cuts an arm off with low npc damage

[waxen lance]

swords are precise instruments

axes

are not

[stark moss]

like ref DO SOMETHING

me when i kill someone and their secondary sword gets lodged into my heart

dude i physics bugged someone and they genuinely took off like a helicopter

why is the small square sword so much stronger than the big one

[waxen lance]

the what

the falchion?

[stark moss]

idk what its called

this fuckin thing

[restive barn]

falchion

[stark moss]

its really strong for some reaosn

it chops off limbs like its butter

[waxen lance]

falchion.

yes.

its an axe blade.

[latent moon]

if you can do a specific move into another specific move to do a ridicoulus move
does that mean we have kcd combo strikes in half sword?

by ridicoulus move i mean like the reverse grip stab that i somehow did twice by now

[dense mantle]

just so you guys know. submissions actually work lmao. get fuckin armbarred wilhelm

actually more of a kimura

[rare hearth]

enemies tend to surrender when they can't get up so yeah it does work

also cool submission

you can also hold your arm in front of their neck while they're on the ground they'll give up

[restive barn]

js give up gng

[elfin abyss]

i just hit a clip i didnt record

threw a pitchfork at the greatsword boss and it one tapped him in the leg

[sacred mason]

Is it possible to win in fist play with damage to npc all the way down, ive been fighting this dude for 45 minutes atp

[elfin abyss]

hit him in the head

[gaunt sundial]

aw man i really need to start recording

just had a very meme worthy scene, i disarmed one man with a glaive, to then cirlce around, grab the dropped glaive and try to hit the second willy with the glaive (it spawned 2 at once) whose weapon was currently tangled with the disarmed willy, and just as my swing was falling, his glaive got untangled and proceeded to snap right into my skull splitting it in half :p

[sacred mason]

i have pretty much only done headshots

i usually can knock the npc out in like 1-2 hits

idk if i just got a glitched npc or if the damage level in settings being all the way down just makes him a tank

[elfin abyss]

...bro if its no damage he's going to be more than a tank

[shadow yew]

chat, i found a somewhat consistent way to cut through an armored opponents arms

i managed to literally disarm 2 dudes with overhead slashes using a greatsword

literally cut off an armored arm with one slash

veteran been easy since the moment i picked up the longsword there

it's literally just slower and clumsier and people charge at you more recklessly

[serene tulip]

For some reason the AI always leaves their shoulders open on Veteran, and that's one of their least armored spots with easy access

[shell bronze]

shii i leave my shoulders open too

[serene tulip]

I can win most battles with a single strike to right shoulder instantly lol

[heady vault]

can someone pelase make a batman reskin mod and put it up on nexus

[serene tulip]

I rarely dispatch my foes with half sword stance since I find it kinda boring usually, but on ocassion it hits just right

[shell bronze]

i never half sword unless i'm being wrestled with tbh

[serene tulip]

I usually keep my arms high and pommel strike their head and shoulders until they let go of me, but sometimes I'll half sword back during a wrestle

[vocal patrol]

Half sword is useful when your opponent has a polearm in less armored tiers

[serene tulip]

overheads are some of the most satisfying things

[urban jackal]

any mods for a more detailed anatomy?

[shell bronze]

this veteran shi easy

[urban jackal]

i would like a brain model

[vocal patrol]

I'm begging the devs to add dismemberment from blunt damage (shattered skulls)

[shell bronze]

whenever ai tries to half sword me they always do it at the worst time and in the most ineffective manner

[urban jackal]

id like to see shattered bones

would be very cool

[vocal patrol]

Yeah currently attacking limbs with blunt weapons is very underwhelming

[urban jackal]

bone cracking noises

thats the best part

[vocal patrol]

That neck crunch when you hit the jaw just right is peak

[serene tulip]

@shell bronze check this shit out

[shell bronze]

nice

that's more militus esque

[serene tulip]

idk what that is. I don't know any historical moves, I just move with the momentum of my weapon and my opponent

[urban jackal]

i love winning before bleeding out

[shell bronze]

no like

the playstyle is more similar to his

[vocal patrol]

I may be on the floor writhing in pain but the screen says I won

[serene tulip]

Ohhh right. I know who you're talking about. Used to seeing his name in the fancy characters I guess lol

[urban jackal]

doesnt matter if you die after

a win is a win

[serene tulip]

I started using the great sword recently. It's definitely a learning curve, but quite fun.

[shell bronze]

honestly i'm much more at home with commoner

any tier above militia is too easy

[shell bronze]

i treat it like a polearm that you hold like a longsword

not much agility to be had with it and by the time you get to it there's too much armor to do anything cool

[urban jackal]

does anyone else half sword to parry when they do an overhead

[shell bronze]

it's cool and fun to do

i usually just swipe it away in regular grip if i want to actually counter attack

[serene tulip]

For me I just have to visualize my trajectory a bit more. If I can manage that, I can work it pretty well.

I usually use it as kind of a brawling weapon, hilt and pommel strikes in the mix a lot, as with that clip I posted. The shove with the hilt was a beauty

[urban jackal]

parrying another sword user is difficult cant lie

guess i just need to play more

[shell bronze]

honestly to beat other sword users efficiently the best thing to do is to not go for parries at all

[serene tulip]

If you can't get it, definitely try Arrow Time to help with practice

[urban jackal]

i love doing shit like this

[shell bronze]

just fight with footwork and timing

parrying is for style points

[urban jackal]

i actually try to do real techniques

[urban jackal]

very effective

[urban jackal]

charge into them sword pointing at them

5050 but oh well

[shell bronze]

footwork > parrying

[serene tulip]

Well I can't help with real techniques. I just do what works for Half Sword

[shell bronze]

i say this as someone who would rather parry for fun than actually kill the damn guy

unless it's the commoner boss

then he gets to die a horrible death

[serene tulip]

Oh yeah footwork is everything. Which makes the persistent flamingo leg bug infuriating for me

[urban jackal]

i dont know what its called, but

[shell bronze]

ain't parrying his ass

[urban jackal]

theres a technique where you parry, then strike

kills them

[vocal patrol]

Peak (turn volume down maybe)

[serene tulip]

a riposte?

[shell bronze]

riposte

[urban jackal]

yep

[urban jackal]

if i fail, i just swing my sword until i land a hit

[serene tulip]

Riposte is my primary style of fighting, from an enjoyment perspective

[urban jackal]

doing this is satisfying to me

especially first try

[urban jackal]

clean cut

i wish there were sound mods out there

[shell bronze]

me and my silly little parries

[urban jackal]

so i didnt need to hear the same screams for the 50th time

i got double teamed and died

[warped apex]

I found willy

[vocal patrol]

Nooo! Haer gott my plea, and thy gottness grant me leave to live! Nae! Mercy good sire! Let not thee hands be heavy upon me!

[urban jackal]

i love this axe

[serene tulip]

Veteran may be easy, but funny shit happens in it pretty often

[shell bronze]

the headbutt of agony and dismemberment

[shell bronze]

i was very close to overheading this guy because he tried that half sword bs on me

but decided to continue the fight honorably when he did

[north glade]

itd be nice to have an unarmored tier with better weapons, i enjoy T3 but i get tired of fighting low quality bastard swords

[vocal patrol]

The humble militia:

[shell bronze]

play militia lmao

if you're worried about the helmet bring your commoner into militia like i do

fun and easy

[north glade]

militia is a decent in-between but id like something without the gambesons and helmets

[shell bronze]

lowkey i really don't feel a difference between gambeson and normal stuff

they all slice and die the same

[urban jackal]

id like to see them add a quarterstaff

[shell bronze]

even veteran tier dies the same

[north glade]

i mostly notice the gambesons help a bit more with blunt damage

but everyone is incredibly squishy in general

and all the weapons are ludicrously sharp

[urban jackal]

did they update?

[shell bronze]

yeah they lowkey don't really die to maces unless you're a headshot master

[urban jackal]

go for the arms and legs

[verbal crane]

enemies in this game never know when to mf quit

https://streamable.com/yaw9n5

[north glade]

personally id like to see sharpness toned down across the board, especially on the spears

[shell bronze]

look at this 1 minute of uninterrupted very inspiring very exciting and engaging mace gameplay @north glade

[verbal crane]

sharpness is always really low or really high in my experience

[north glade]

ITS PEAK!!!!!!!

[shell bronze]

and wonder why maces rank lower than any other weapon in this game for me

[upper urchin]

or just lower your damage to the npc

[shell bronze]

fuckass clubs, unless you have your damage to npcs on max maces ain't shiet

with literally any bladed weapon that dude would've died first 3 swings

[verbal crane]

like either my sword literally bounces off the enemy willie

[north glade]

i already have global damage lowered, but it doesnt help with a crappy hammer finished tier 3 weapon somehow being able to pierce a gambeson with a light tickle

[verbal crane]

or i'll gently tap the enemy willie and he falls in half

[north glade]

im sure itll be improved upon in the future though

[verbal crane]

the same applies to enemies' strikes against me

[summer brook]

were you on max gore

[verbal crane]

yea, but i play on minimum damage to npcs + myself

[summer brook]

the gore determines the dismemberment rate

so that doesnt have to do with the damage

[verbal crane]

and somehow i'm still cutting off arms with glancing blows lol

that's kinda weird

[summer brook]

turn the gore down

[verbal crane]

hope they change that

[verbal crane]

rn maces are the most unthreatening weapon in the game

like if u really need a blunt weapon

[shell bronze]

bruh i have not lost to a mace user in recent memory no matter tier

[verbal crane]

pole-hammers are better in every single way

[north glade]

the commoners with a mace and buckler would be better off unarmed

[shell bronze]

just use the wooden parts of any given polearm lmao

[verbal crane]

i always feel a little bad when i run into a mace enemy on commoner

[shell bronze]

literally 0 reason to fear mace

[verbal crane]

any short weapon user on commoner tbh, but the maces the most

[shell bronze]

or any one handed weapon user

[verbal crane]

like i've fucked up fighting machete guys before and gotten my legs hacked off, but i can't remember the last time a mace killed me

[shell bronze]

on god

[verbal crane]

even when i made serious mistakes lol

[shell bronze]

falchion guys at least punish you for messing up

[verbal crane]

average mace fight

[north glade]

the falchion is a femur eviscerator for some reason

[shell bronze]

but usually i make sure they die horrible deaths anyways

[north glade]

they cut through my thigh bones like butter

[verbal crane]

i usually don't fuck around when fighting falchions, even when i have a longsword

[verbal crane]

things lowkey scare me lol

[shell bronze]

lowkey one handed weapon users ain't shit

[verbal crane]

onehanded weapon users when you hold down alt:

[shell bronze]

on god

i have so many clips of one handed weapon users dying horrible deaths before they even get more than a swing or two off

[wise canyon]

Called a falchion

[urban jackal]

buff this axe

70% of the time it doesnt even cut

[verbal crane]

one-handed weapon users r good for learning how to manage distance

https://streamable.com/siusnl

[shell bronze]

the falchion user who never gave up

[verbal crane]

and precision cuts to the throat, hat, and other vitals

[shell bronze]

that's pretty much it i fear

[verbal crane]

i only actually practice parrying against other longswords tho

[shell bronze]

it's harder to parry one handed weapons because they don't follow the same RoM

better to manage distance and just use your reach to insta kill them

but it can be done

[graceful nebula]

wsp guys

why cant i acces the play test no more

[shell bronze]

it's a demo now

download that

[graceful nebula]

the tech demo?

[shell bronze]

same thing just different game on paper

half sword demo

[graceful nebula]

ah ok thx

[shell bronze]

that's how i do it

lot of fun to be had toying with other longsword users

[verbal crane]

by far where the most fun in the game is to be had, imo at least

this + speedrunning brave stand

[north glade]

turned his plancon against him

[upper urchin]

plancon top 1 weapons

in game

[tiny root]

hello halfsword people

[sharp oyster]

can i reset my progress once i complete gauntlet mode?

[tiny root]

yeah

it resets it for you and unlocks baron

[loud stone]

kinda wish you could just access the final showdown in sandbox mode

instead of beating the entire gauntlet just so you can do it again

[tiny root]

i'd rather just not, hate that challenge lmao

i got split in half by the butt end of an axe

[loud stone]

if you open the willies head, you can see that there is nothing in the willies head.

[scenic isle]

got my arm cut off but can still move like i have my arm

[tiny root]

snapped his neck in a kick

[loud stone]

i got a picture of that

[tiny root]

what

oh ok

[loud stone]

imagine if you could strangle the willies

[tiny root]

discord embeds are kinda weird sometimes

especially on mobile

[tiny root]

would be cool if necks had choke hitboxes or something

[loud stone]

the video took 4 seconds to get its gears turnin

[tiny root]

yeah discord bandwidth being weird

[loud stone]

i remember decapitating a willie's head and he was SOMEHOW holding his stump

[tiny root]

my friend drove a pike through a willie's forehead and he was still fighting lol

it was sticking through the back of his head and he kept swinging at him

[loud stone]

the willies have more endurance then wolverine bro istg.

[tiny root]

sometimes i one shot them and other times theyre fighting with every bone in their bodies broken

[shell bronze]

genuinely broken

fuckass weapon

[upper urchin]

no cap i finished the gauntlet once i got it with it

[shell bronze]

to fight it you need to employ devious techniques

[upper urchin]

didnt change class

[shell bronze]

but to use it it's literally just

[upper urchin]

at all

[tiny root]

if i went for that parry it wouldve broken my guard and split my head open

[upper urchin]

🤩

[shell bronze]

bullshit ass weapon

[upper urchin]

best weapon oat

[tawdry void]

will the game ever have a multiplayer mode?

[simple vale]

is this steve chat ?

[tiny root]

i just think the swords are fun

[night storm]

I always make sure to kill anyone using it

[tiny root]

probably after full release

[night storm]

they don't deserve a second chance or honour

[shell bronze]

i specialize in fighting other weapons with commoner longsword and the plancon is the most difficult

[tiny root]

those and pitchforks

[upper urchin]

if plancon doesnt get banned in multiplayer yo

[tawdry void]

This game with multiplayer would be crazy

[upper urchin]

gonna crash out

[loud stone]

"1v1 me in medival fighting simulator n00b!"

[shell bronze]

1v1 me as two peasants in the field of battle

[tiny root]

i struggle more against any weapon + a shield i think, but that might be skewed because i just tried beating the game without killing anyone

[shell bronze]

shield people are actually notoriously easy to bully

[tiny root]

problem is i was trying not to kill and usually i just wait for an opening and throat slash

[shell bronze]

don't need anything but a longsword

[shell bronze]

that's probably why

[tiny root]

yeah

[tiny root]

didnt even beat the challenge because the game started cheating

lost in level 8

[shell bronze]

all that armor and all that shield for nothing 🥀

[night storm]

I have escaped

The willy has breached containment

[tiny root]

cruel and unusual punishment

[muted dew]

The injury was sustained when he was still a combatant and threat. if it was done unto him after his surrender however

[tiny root]

cruel and unusual point of targetting

[urban jackal]

uncruel and usual punishment

[tiny root]

average halfsword kill

[muted dew]

Welp sucks to suck. either surrender before I try to protect it

[urban jackal]

i cant even see whats happening in the video

stupid video player

[tiny root]

he stabbed him in the balls and ran him down with the pike

[muted dew]

I stabbed a knight in the willie

[urban jackal]

oh

i do the bum

hence my name

[loud stone]

bro why is my willie just stopping dead in his tracks

[tiny root]

theres a glitch where sometimes you just kinda trip and get forced to crouch

restarting the game fixes it

[loud stone]

yea thats happening to me

[tiny root]

restart your game

i think it has something to do with whatever randomly generated clothing or armor you have?

not sure

[shell bronze]

i know what causes it

it's the microcrashes

the stuff that opens the extra window that says crashdump or some bs

[tiny root]

thats what causes it?

[shell bronze]

after those happen spots on the floor start to appear where you get forced to crouch

[tiny root]

then its just a UE5 issue for now

[shell bronze]

yeah they never appear until the microcrashes happen

[loud stone]

so its a UE5 issue?

[tiny root]

seems like it

[supple grotto]

just discoverd that free mode gives points for gauntlet

[fallen star]

Wtf

I can punch him

[desert spear]

:3

[austere salmon]

You wanna see a guy play through the fire and flames on a Lego guitar

[shell bronze]

this came out of nowhere

sure why not

[austere salmon]

https://youtu.be/_lstdv1m7oI?si=sSVlY6Un9cantUX0

[shell bronze]

neat right

[supple grotto]

YEAH\

caps

[austere salmon]

I have horrible adhd and the memory of a coked out goldfish, I bring strange things

[old wyvern]

guys , is it me or the first boss is overcheated ?

[soft osprey]

Overcheated?

[old wyvern]

like

i cqnnot beqt hi;

i cannot beat him, i only killed him like three times

[soft osprey]

He can be tough if you’re new to the game for sure. To put it simply, let him move towards you a bit, circle around him and grab the knife from the center floor. Keep your distance with shift + tapping movement keys to dodge. Bait him into a swing, dash in and stab

[old wyvern]

he's litteraly one shotting me and taking absolutely no damages at all

[soft osprey]

One stab in the gut also puts him down

[old wyvern]

there's no knife 🧍‍♂️

[soft osprey]

It’s in the center

On the floor

[kind vortex]

you can also use the shovel if you want to risk it a lil more,

[old wyvern]

im going to see that

[kind vortex]

it takes MAYBE a bit more but it puts him down easily too

[old wyvern]

i love u

thanks

[shell bronze]

good thing i love dragonforce

that's fire

[shell bronze]

beat his head in with candlestick

or learn timing for the kitchen knife

[old wyvern]

🫶

[velvet pine]

Nah trust me go london mode on all the bosses up to the armored ones

[wind charm]

Lore accurate Willie

[sharp oyster]

how u do that

[trim salmon]

after like a year of playing this game i decided to join the discord today

[serene tulip]

1. Pick up knife
2. Football tackle

[honest thorn]

Simple as

[old wyvern]

how the hell did you do that ?

[serene tulip]

by holding W and Alt

[old wyvern]

alt ? alt is useful ?

[serene tulip]

Alt is the stab grip

[old wyvern]

bro

thanks

[serene tulip]

np

You can always practice stabbing in Beggar Carnage as well, it's a little weird in 3rd person, but that's what I prefer to play as

[velvet pine]

You can also stab by double clicking whatever wrapon hand you wanna stab with, spacebar kicks, control crouches and q and e let you grab stuff

[soft osprey]

Welcome to halfsword prison

glad you could join us

[calm kindle]

hey so im new to the game and was wondering how do i get out of the abyss

becuase i cant find a tutorial or nothing

[vocal patrol]

the billhook might be my new favorite weapon

[vocal patrol]

die or exit to menu

[calm kindle]

yup imin menu rn

oh and then click play demo

yup

[rare hearth]

the billhook is based

[muted dew]

https://tenor.com/view/well-yes-but-actually-no-meme-aardman-the-pirates-pirate-gif-26563702

[vocal patrol]

and yes, it is in fact better than the plancon

[slim meadow]

telling you my meta: longsword-half sword grip-spine-front of the body

and* they just die like flies

no matter the armour

if there is at least a slither of skin beetweeen your armour, i will find it

and* dissect the poor billy or willy or whatever his name is

[rare hearth]

yeah I love going in for the head but i suck at aiming so most of the times i go for the legs

[vocal patrol]

sweeping the legs is valid and honestly way more effective

[tiny root]

wait till you reach the third one

[rare hearth]

but hitting the head looks cooler

especially if you hit his neck with the hook

peak death

[vocal patrol]

hardest boss in the game I swear

[tiny root]

hes stupidly strong but i can beat him pretty easily, i just wait for a top swing dodge and salice his throat

[vocal patrol]

yeah his strength and the weight of his weapon makes parrying absolutely impotent unless you fully swing into it

[rare hearth]

true he is kinda hard

[tiny root]

and then you miss the parry because his sword is massive and you get sliced in half by the lightest blow youve ever seen

[rare hearth]

i mostly try to slash and run, I also mostly get cut in the process

[vocal patrol]

he's cut me in half more times than I can count (I can only count to 3)

[tiny root]

yeah whenever i try to stab and run i get sliced in half vertically

so bait and strike

[broken venture]

i was on a hot streak of just counter attacking and i kept on slashing off the heads

man i died

[rare hearth]

i love counter attacking its so cool

[broken venture]

fr

[rare hearth]

doing historical poses

and techniques

to parry and counter

[broken venture]

ikr it feels really cool, but its also pretty hard to execute right

[rare hearth]

yeah

[broken venture]

im getting a hang of it though

[vocal patrol]

it's like 60% less effective than just flailing like a maniac but it's like 80% more fun so if my math checks out it's 20% better

[rare hearth]

if you want to learn more about sword fighting check out SMUG on YouTube

dude has cool sword fighting videos

[broken venture]

bet

thanks

[rare hearth]

np

[broken venture]

i had so much trouble swinging for the neck but now i do it without thinking

[runic karma]

How to disarm 1st way

And second way

[tiny root]

historical btw

[rare hearth]

the power of spinkicking

[broken venture]

lowkey imagine if the game was like a open world

[tiny root]

snapped his neck in one blow

[vocal patrol]

I've been fighting with the billhook for like half an hour and I haven't died

[rare hearth]

would crush kcd

[broken venture]

whats kcd 😭

[rare hearth]

if it got enough advertising that is

[vocal patrol]

kcd2 is so peak, play it

[vocal patrol]

kingdom come deliverance

[broken venture]

ohhh mb lol

but fr

[vocal patrol]

the second game is better though

[rare hearth]

kingdom come deliverance, a nice medieval fighting game

[broken venture]

it wwould also like, destroy your pc but still

[vocal patrol]

idk about kcd1 but kcd2 is super well optimized

[rare hearth]

ddnt play it yet cause pc sucks

[vocal patrol]

my 5 year old pc can run it on high graphics

[rare hearth]

yeah too many npcs

[broken venture]

it would be like hellish quart but not side to side and way better

[rare hearth]

my pc is worse

it ran 1 on low-mediumish graphics

[broken venture]

i can run it on high but when it comes to liek playing carnage it gets a little low on fps

[rare hearth]

with somewhat stable 60 fps

[vocal patrol]

2 runs better than 1 trust me

[rare hearth]

doesnt it need dx12 to run

[vocal patrol]

no idea

[broken venture]

i kind of wish you were able to use the environment as well

like how in blade and scorcery you can kick enemies into spikes
