never been a fan of fully armored combat, try this on for size
jabbed em right in the throat with that sharp crossguard
Knight tier has drawn my interest more and more since I've kind of mastered Veteran tier and I'm quite decent at Commoner.
It's just different, more about brawling and knowing how to manipulate your entire bopdy like a lever in heavy plate armor
this is fair, i prefer the faster, more chaotic combat of soldier tier
lof, whats your take on this
There is a bit more to the armored combat. For a while when I first started I liked it then got better at aiming and didn't like it again
stabbing needs a rework
swords work fine up until the highest tier
Hilariously brutal, y'all exchanged some gruseom hits
this is my favorite way to end a duel btw
the gaps just become so small youre basically just fighting on hopes and dreams
he got me in the arm a little, but i ripped part of his fucken throat out with this large, shark crossguard
That was intense for sure. My favorite fights on here are the ones where ppl use techniques and bring them to life thru the game
ive got a few good zwerchaus, not on camera sadly
I don't know the polearms technique names but I like the halfswkrd and then use both ends to hit
wait wrong vid
zwerchau is a longsword technique
Those were chained together well@formal chasm
kinda but this vid i just recorded because the guy was bleeding from blunt strikes
like every blunt strike was causing bleeding for some reason
i meant to send this one
i mostly end fights with brutal flenses, instead of grand moves
or decietful false parries
im sorry, but did i just highlander him
grab a thinner sword bro
thin and long = better speed
then you can do hema stuff easier
make me
estoc by far my fav weapon ngl
too bad you cant aim thrusts in this game
im actually practicing with it rn trying to make an infinite swing by doing a tight circle on the x and y intercept of the two overhead plane intersections
indeed
wait you can play with a controller?
no but you can slowly move the weapon around and watch how it behaves as it goes from plane to plane
bigger and heavier = bone breaking and guard piercing
oh i see i see
the weapons in this game have weird rules
the faster you go, sometimes certain maneuvers becomes unavailable
the slower you go, the more often you can switch to defensive stances
so if you hover on that axis while twirling the blade, willie can basically spin the blade forever
you sir are wasting the potential of le glorious longsword
estoc is even more preferable because it means less chance of 1 tap
more cuts = more enjoyment
greatsword is better, more brutal kills
you cant wrap an estoc around someone's neck and snap it, or break their leg and kick their head
no, but then the fun is over faster
i like to take my time
kill, maim, burn, smite the unclean
also, the other part of it is - the more "good" hits i can get in without willie wanting to give up, i count as skill expression
that means no flat siding etc etc
disabling hits are also sometimes -points because if willie cant fight back then its stat padding
he could fight back when he got his knee snapped off, his fault for not hitting me first
im sure he feels the same way, somehow
this guy doesnt feel a whole hell of a lot right now
makes you wonder what it'd be like to suffer the guillotine
if it was a clean cut, what was that last bit of life like?
garden sprinkler POV
mushrooms and stomach down on the floor
dear diary: loadout selector
when are guns getted added to the game? like imagine the sword just isnt "cutting" it so you pull out a desert eagle and go ham
How to stab enemy exactly?
how do i get the playtest version ? instead of demo on steam
I very much enjoy the great sword.
you can no longer get the playtest, only the updated demo with more content than the playtest.
Sounds good thank u !
@wind charm, @gleaming ridge said you're a bingus 🙏
Home
i'm crine bruh why does this game crash at the most random moments
learned today: V can put you in and out of first person
Mfw I accidentally delete a whole folder out of my pooled_saves for ovrdth
what's with ai willie and doing a feigned left strike into a stab
it always ends the exact same way
How do you record?
steam clip saver
Good night everyone. I’m going to bed. Sweet dreams. Hope you had a great day💤
Do not question my ways
i managed to get 500 wins in a row in fist fighting
if speedrun.com page verifiers approve, i'll be #3 on the leaderboard
cool
Perfect victory
nice
thats cool
I wish I was that skilled at fist fighting
REF HE WOUNDED ME WITH CONQUERORS
thank you!
ah you just gotta learn the techniques for quick K.O’s
I prefer to snap limbs
especially with the oponnents own weapon
like this
i mean i can do that with kicks sometimes but with no weapons it’s usually best for me to sock em in the head
never touched his leg before that
nice
I dont like dealing direct damage, i like playing like im in jiujitsu
manuver the joints so they snap
maybe something i can try sometime
with the right movment its easy to snap an arm or leg
in this game
disarming is also fun
when does game fully release
Q4 of this year
has anyone complained about how absolutely unfair the afterlife crap is
Add a slider for screaming intensity and another for how long it takes them to die of their wounds OwO
The way that you parry is beautiful. What am I doing wrong?
How exactly do you mean
I was thinking the same thing. I find it pretty easy most of the time
thank you
it takes a lot of getting used to the way weapons swing (and how parrying is more predominantly weapon placement/blocking rather than swinging your weapon in response)
and some parries you just can't/shouldn't go for
especially the leg swipes
sorry i was just frusterated i lost a top tier to the after life. but everytime in the high ranks im fighting off three guys while im wearing a tunic and weilding a candle pole, its like last stand but im the giy with no armour fighting giants
I think it can be a little too fast paced to get kitted up by the time you get to plate armor guys, but that's about it
they should fix the crash bug right now tbh its too major and a game breaking bug which needs fast fixing
Interesting. So then it's a little more like hellish quart? I always feel like I have to intercept the weapon
All good I was genuinely asking
yeah it's not like parrying in other games where it's reactive and you have to treat it like a quick time event
Oh my god. I just witnessed the most horrible thing ever. I just watched my young female rabbit humping my older neutered male rabbit. Don't get rabbits, kids...
i just feel there is no chance of winning, the odds are so far stacked over me
thats why cats are better (shh shh i definitely dont get my room raided by 3 cats)
you mean abyss?
or punishment
and it feels bad getting that far and getting dogged on in the after life
you can see me fishing/waiting for ai willie to do his low swipe before i go in for the parry against his high strike instead @real shell
maybe? wherever you spawn after you die in combat
and the moment he charged at me it was pretty much done deal
I love my cats so much. All boys, all fixed. Girl cats in heat aren't great either tbh. At least the rabbits are quiet
so if youre a peasant and higher you go to abyss as punishment and a chance to get your rank back, you should find a pitch fork and if the place you spawn does not has that, then grab the candle pole till you find it while also wearing the clothes you find, remember always turn around and look everywhere to ensure youre not getting ambushed, but if you dont want that punishment, just try to tryhard
i neutered my two cats (two female one male) which one was the male and the other female, but the youngest cat than other 2 isnt neutered yet but i will do that too
Well, we have girl now. My mom more or less stole her from my uncle, but before that I've always had boy cats almost all my life. Not super sure why tbh
we took and adopted all three from the street, no buying it from pet shop or anything
I don't think I've ever once gotten an animal from a shop. My oldest cat was already pretty old when we got him and he was so emaciated. He's fat as fuck now and I've never met a happier cat
Same, my cats freak out and hypercharged sometimes at night and run everywhere and break anything, make anything fall
Brother, one of my cats likes to come into my room at night and sleep with me. Admittedly he's my favorite and he's basically a teddy bear I can scoop up for bed at any time, but when he wants out he specifically targets my phone and earbuds because he knows those things will get me out of bed the fastest. He communicates exclusively through destroying my shit
My cats usually raid my room sometimes and directly jump to either my desk or bed
This cat will get down from my bed, jump into my chair, climb onto my desk, walk across it over my phone and slap it into the floor
ALWAYS THE PHONE
i usually hide my phone, But they instead slap my plastic cup to the floor, and the youngest cat among other 2 usually is the only one that comes to my bed and sleeps on my chest
That's cute. My cats like to sleep between my legs. The living teddy bear can be pulled under the covers at any time, but the others will flee
My cats does that too, but sometimes all cats sleep on my moms and sisters bed (They sleep together) but sometimes one cat comes to me too
and when they are energized they break and slap everything
meow loudly
I need to convince my rabbits to sleep in my bed with me
is it possible to kill someone by slamming them onto the fence?
i've smashed this guy's head like 30 times
and he's somehow alive
Yh, just hold their head and make them bite the fence while also punching
I just grabbed it with both hands I'm trying to do this without punching
I just hit a guy below the waist with a billhook so fucking hard that he died before he hit the ground and I didn't even sever anything
eh just kick while hitting him then
i usually kill them in painful but cool poses like this
I like to use a mace and make them submit and then proceed to ensure that they can never walk again by repeatedly breaking both of their legs in 10 different places
I have issues
if i got a mace and my sword or axe isnt working well on them, i use a mace and hit their legs several time before finishing them off
by chopping their head
See, I prefer death by broken legs. I want to extract the most possible suffering out of a person and really I just can't do that if they die from organ damage or something
I also sometimes give a cut on their throat to make them gag and unable to breath if they keep resist to die
and then punch them heavily
I love this death. It takes so long sometimes. Every once in a while I'll get it going for way too long and I'm kinda like "Bro, just let go. You aren't coming back from this"
for real, they scream and beg like they are the only one that will be spared even when they see you brutally kill all
Love when I literally split a guy in half and cut another dude's arm off before decapitating him and the last dude is just like "Nah, I can take him. Watch"
most of them ends up l ike this when they think they can kill me
Same
they directly turn to a puppy when their weapon falls down and they are begging while they literally tried to kill me
Sometimes this game makes me feel like I'm going to end up on some kind of watch list
When you are trying not to kill them but they keep coming at you no matter how many bones you break and then they actually cut you before begging for mercy. Nah bro, you earned this death
for real
if you want to be spared just throw your weapons away and start to beg, your not surviving by begging after attacking, but you can maybe be spared with a little chance if you do that
I remember one time I stabbed a dude in the leg and pulled out my sword and he was mostly fine, but was just like "Nope. I'm good. I don't want any more of that shit" and I did actually spare him
i dont spare anyone tbh
Just goes to show that not all willies are made equal
only two persons was the ones that were spared total and they both wereee because i thought was dead
I swear I didn't hit this guys arm
Wow i didn't even get to play for 30 seconds and the game already crashed
man fell onto the camera
idk where y'all're getting the notion that the billhook sucks, this thing is a joy to use
Rn im playing half sword with 0 mods, wtf?
that sometimes happen
it gets rid of them once you spawn iirc
but when you spawn it disappears
yea tha's what i just said
that's a shame, the design actually looks kinda good
oki
disarmed him with a spin kick lmaooo
will there be multiplayer in release version?
Yeah nah or nah yeah
Currently not in development but after release yes but there is a working split screen co-op version
Out somewhere and has apparently been shown at the Tokyo games fest though I can't find any footage of it anyway
aight, thanks, i'll try to find smth about it
fistplay is weird at low damage levels
Fistplay on low damage is just 2 medieval bald men named willie turning each other into grapes over the course of 2 hours lmfao
the only way to win is by using the fence in some way
with the boss (whenever gore is enabled) you have to block and get a stab
i stabbed the opponent in the head with the pitchfork but then he cut off my arm and i died first
who was I fighting
you're so fat you get a concussion when you fall down on the ground
It was a bit more than a concussion
cleaved his helm in 2
( i knoew)
guys is it me or does the lock on system breaks half of the time
yea it's not very good
i swear sometimes mid fight without doing anything
it stops tracking
and i die because i turned my back and hit the fence instead of the dude
or have to manually turn and miss an oppening
ngl i was a rager at the start
this was the first time i beat farmer and i chopped him up
the pitchfork is fun because you can use it like a cattle prod
high gore levels fucking suck because you can get instakilled easier
Armboy
guys i completed every boss, but how can i play as example on tier8 character bs tier 5 npcs? Is there any aoption?
i mean you can pick the brave stand
but it's not exactly the same
yeah
i mean compleately
on t5 queue
also i dont see how to play on sword vs armoured npcs
like i cant even stab them
Audio up, gang
isnt it tier 6-7 npcs vs u on tier 8
Both of these go insane, but the grappling in the first one is just so cool.
Also t8 sallet go crazy I love it
same armour but im using my own weapon
how
the edge alignment with the scythe is really weird
Got to learn how to find the gaps in the armor and play baseball with their head
i dont understand in what way, like you're bored about not getting instant gratification kills? thats what armour is for, to prevent you from dying easily
i mean swords was kinda slicing the armour back in the days?
as i know
Also stuff like this is insanely satisfying
yo is my pc shit or the game gets hella laggy when playing the free for all gamemode with swords (or anything that causes willies to bleed)
Correct, like real life too. Where oftentimes full plated combatants would get knocked down and finished off with a dagger
The game is completely unoptimized. So def the game, or probably both.
maybe its both
i have the recommended specs
8gb vram and 16 of ram
why is punching op in armored combat now
Yeah to run at high graphics and up with a ton of gore you need like 16vram lmfaooo and a 900 dollar card
Recommended requirements is actually just minimum requirements 💀
i dont even meet
the minimum requirements
all my footage is on low quality
Idek if I do, but i get like 50-80 frames in singles on high. Brave stand and buhurt are near impossible tho
Does your game run smooth-ish?
not smooth with discord at the same time
also does 24 frames a second count as smooth
12-18 with discord
So youre saying armor should not do anything? Because that's how you play vs armor
There's also lots of different armor tiers.
They're not
At least not online multiplayer
The game will have splitscreen tho
they said
on alpha
there gonna be
pvp
trust they said it
guys is it me or does commoner the hardest one to progress just mainly due to the boss
If they do add online multiplayer, it is going to be after the game is completely finished and polished and feature complete. And even then its just a very loose "maybe."
its easy
i got cut in half after i thrusted in his throat due to his sword landing and slicing me in half
i am pretty sure this game is gonna be dead
if it wont have pvp
i mean without using cheese im using the messer
It's at least the most repeatable boss since it's the first one
He is the hardest boss yes, but very doable. He just has the highest potential to delete you haha
I just realized you said commoner not beggar
yeah anyone after him is just dead
yeah
i have a save on the baron which i out on another file
Shit like this is so fun
and yet somehow the same person who beat baron
cant fuckin kill the 3rd boss without cheese
i killed the 3rd boss last time using pitchfork
Thats def the easiest way
but without something like an axe or a garden hoe if your lucky he just offs you before you can get close
Ironically as we're speaking rn:
i did that
his falling sword cut me in 2
SOMEHOW
i did its just he either misses and you get lucky hit and just prays it doesnt land on your face
or be unlucky and somehow having a sword through his leg doesnt make him give up
but guys should i turn down the damage for npcs
i have it to max
so i could practice edge alignment
but now its getting real hard
I did this for you, for vengeance, for all the times hes cut you in half.
character cant get tf up
It is in fact possible to do cleanly tho
He is just butt schouching
Time to old yeller him
my game runs on like 24 frames a second or bellow at low settings
14 rn
O M G, militus!!! Are you using cheats to have fun fighting against armor!!??
Yeah that doesn't help 😭
ok now its just unfair
HE BLEW THROUGH MY Guard
like seriously i ad the game slowed down and it just went through
He do got a sword as big as you
Its near impossible to actually parry him normally imo
3rd boss is actually my stand
I can’t wait to play this game on the plane for 10 hours
yes but with the game slowed down he just went through my weapon like clipping and sliced me in 2 again
like bro how tf is this happening rn
Its a rough demo of a game that's not fully developed, youre running at 20 frames, and hes a giant with super strength and a 9ft long sword
Would be my guess
yes but still its kinda frustrating strat not working due to fps issues
not only that but if your pc cant calculate the physics quick enough then things will get fucky and stuff will start clipping through
PUNCH HIM MAN GIVE HIM A HAYMAKER
My best sparks
yeah i beat hi right now by rage quiting throwing my weapon and cutting him in fuckin 2 lol
How’re you guys getting sparks
No doubt, and that's valid. It can be frustrating. But to say its BS or undoable just aint true.
Glad you got him lol that sounds hilarious
and now im at the tier with my beloved
spikey stic 5000
Don't ever let that plançon go
Bc you'll need to fight like he'll to get it back lmfaoo
Thats actually a great idea: make a save file at every tier so you can just redo those bosses
yeah for the baron idk how but
i first tried it
prob because i got spikey stick early
Just got to go into the files. This is how you get there, just save instead of delete
oh oh yeah i know that i have my baron file saved on my desktop
Is that just shiny steel or is the t8 blue steel armor, and if so how did you get a sallet that's not silver or the like, cast iron lookin ass
you on dx12?
Naur I got a 1060 💀
That would make sense tho the lighting is just totally different between 11 and 12
well it might not work, you set it to epic hit save and then down to medium and it keeps the epic shaders but you get the medium graphics armour which is shiny
BRUH
I DIED RIGHT AFTER I WON
BLOOD LOSS MY ASS HOW DOES A TINY DAGGER IN MY HAND KILL ME IN 5 SECS
He is beautiful, and silver.
Thats the best sallet too bc first person actually works lmao
SPIKEY STICK TIME
WHY TF DOES MY MOUSE DISCONENCT AT THE WORST TIME
well uh
guys my mouse fuckin broke
i mean like
the chip that tells it to track
its cracked in 2
gonna have to ship another mouse
erm its called the War Staff 🤓
idc
also my mouse broke mid game
todays half sword challenge
can you beat halfsword using the track pad?
Erm it’s called the planceon
was half sword early access releasing this year?
yes
what stance do i need to be in so i could parry easily with the longsword
ox guard
it didnt like how slow i was swinging so it sped the fight up for me
wish me luck (i want to kill baron second time
do you got gore and blood on?
i dont even get to choose that option before it crashes
your computers problem ig
show me it
it says video memory
ask a dev
how much vram do you have on your gpu
how i check
i think we can help you more if you show us the crash thing
open task manager, go to performance, go to GPU, and it's "dedicated gpu memory usage"
15.8
they took tax off my fucking 16GB
dw i use 8 gb ram 😭
youre still lucky
what is your gpu
laptop with a fatass 4070
13th gen i9 13870 cpu i think
i think it will be my second time killing baron 😄
bro does not got a face anymore
try going to steam, right click the game, go to properties, and then in launch options, type "-dx11" without the "" of course
wait i got it workin
bro.
hehe
give me that too
thanks
that too
tysm
Erm its called the plançon à picot

Sorry had to
thats VRAM
oh
so gpu
i got 4gb 
goated
bros playing on hopes and dreams
not seeing great things about it
why
seems people are dogging on the gpu
eh
at least
i can play good games on it
with 8 gb ram
and also it works very well
so yh im grateful tho
honestly the best way to look at it
yh
i dont want a better pc tbh
the one i got rn has everything i need
no lag
8 gb ram
and working well
my second time killing baron
this one was the first time i killed it
i got asus too
rog
mine cost 2k
i shouldve got a desktop PC
laptop also has a screen already
and a keyboard
if you have a laptop with thunderbolt 4 you can also add a egpu
when is the early access releasing
q4 2025
wdym q4
q4 means quarter 4, each year is 12 months, 12/4 = 3, so it means the game will release sometime around the last 3 months of the year (october-december)
what should i set the autolock to? I'm having a hard time doing precise strikes with my longsword
is it possible to grab the npcs? in duels or wtv
fistplay
Q or E grab, oftentimes its hard to keep a hold of them though
u can bodyslam, suplex and do 720 spin kick btw
how?
go in game footage
one month mroe and i have the gpu and cpu for new pc :3
or like the rusty shiv from blade and sorcery
the skinning knife
for spoilance in beggar teir
its all in grips tho
i want to roleplay a Häjy
if u play armored i suggest like doing a trip take down kinda
ok but what is R for
inventory
inventory

polearm
brawling/boxing kinda
grappling, swordmaster
literally anything
yeah it's called jail???
Antti Isotalo was apearently a capable fighter and a man to be feared well into his 70's
They should add the feature to make yourself really buff like a bodybuilder 😎
he was feared even as an elder?
if u seen one of the wip
their was a vid of a new model
and sliders
not like ark but
willie is already buff
just put big arms on him
he can carry literal gold armor
how do i disable enemy pain
and can man handle a baron with ease
with hs enhancer or the damage slider
thanks
oo
he looks like he needs some sleep
do you want to see his penis or what
his willie is out
i want to see him wear pants
their testing the body rig
mhmm
or the textures or sum
dont assume dawg 😭
u can also kickbox
but ion think theirs a thread
whats the keybind or tut
im too lazy to find all threads
oh am i stupid
i forgot theres a THREAD button
kick tutorial
shout out to riva for making this i think]
its easy if u dont overthink it
this is a very strong quote
the skeleton
doesnt it need the enemy damage slider all the way up to be fun to do?
the man was strong roughly 6 feet tall when at the time the average finn was like 5ft 5
i mean yeah
even with the threads idk how to do it
when i try to headbutt him i jsut look like im romantically kissing him
oh yeah thatts understandable
act like ur a raging bull
shift+ look down
also like....he was probably the most notorious person at the time

a bruise that looks like a buzz
oh aight
yamcha pose
😏
the first thing
also tthe motion blur is reshade
hes doing a wrestling move
and reshade kinda is bad for the pc bc it takes a hunk of ur performance
so i got rid of it
mfs when they see any sort of fighting move htat includes grabbing
Rannanjärvi which was the other fella in the image died from bleeding out while on a revenge when he hit the guy he was after over the head with a piece of wood, knocking said guy out and getting out of a ditch they were fighting in, the t<arget then climbed back out and tackeled rannanjärvi into the ground stabbing him 5 times before anyone vcould react
can someone teach me how to kick box dm me if you want to help
wow
yeah, funnily enough that part of finland is where some of the best knife smiths come from
why does it feel like I'm not improving
It just feels like I'm getting better at slashing necks for instant kill, not learning any new mechanics or intricacies
i just hold the button to hold my sword/weapon in the middle and run up to the person stabbing them
pretty brutal
butn
not really
most fun way to win imo
"NO I DONT WANNA GO"
basic 😄
wrapped his own arm around me, ehs qutie persistent
is willie left handed or right handed
try to replicate actual moves, take your time
depends on your dominant arm
...Um well that's one way to die...
how do you get those npc characters when using knight armor? when i do i just get a copy of mine (or similar to mine)
imagine that actually happening in a fight
you'd be killed for witch craft
(in medieval era)
i think
im not good with history
I personally enjoy crafting witches
get the hs enhancer mod and ovrdeath selection mod
why no open
along with the vicious weapons mod
and where do i put the mods??
his arm got removed so cleanly
search it up on yt
oof
btw you get the mods on nexus
embed perms
guys do i go pee or do i let it sink in
im proud of this
pay 5 dolalrs a month for exp to get levels
^ fella this legit u if u keep sending dem embed fails
no bwain
oh god
peak human anatomy
u know what i realised
willies eye's are so detailed
nah gonna keep sending vaguelly homosexual energy pics
Hey, speaking of homosexual...
i wish i could snap a neck in this game while hooking their head behind a sowrd

twisty neck
is this a valid hema technique
? it's all in the photography
is this a battetring ram
battering willie
If you die and win at the same time you spawn naked.
what is this technique
grab and fail swing tech
scoliosis
mantilisk
lumbago
do what I even call this technique?
eat my elbow
round slouse drock pip
what is a knight doing in a spoilance game😭
his name got mistaken with a heavily similiar one so now theres a random willye fighting a baron
he grabbed me mid spin kick so now i mangle dhim
hold w
everytime i do he js gets stuck in a position
go look in #photography📷
post stuff like that in game footage, photography has posting rules on it
idk what to tell you, to get up you press and hold W
is there any way to use boss clothing/ loadouts, like with the longsword boss that wears the black gambeson?
by default you only get the baron loadout for ultimate challenge
for boss loadouts you need half sword enhancer
yeah ive got it, but I cant find the boss loadouts?
ideally Id like to find that one bosses loadout and save it with ovrdth, is that possible?
oh
hai
yeah ill try that
sharp object
which
then?
lmao
fr
thor is op but stupid
hooyah
how can i crawl
It all starts by getting on the ground.
how can i manually get on the ground
Start in the abyss. In the arena it's really hard, easiest route is to knock yourself out on the lists.
lists are like the fences?
That is correct.
when i started i thought the abyss was the only thing u could do and it pissed me off so much i took a break from the game 🙏
Turns out my issue was that damage was at 25%
reaöl
damage completely alters the way the game plays
yeah
no he is tall
witch craft
i just got a kill that was straight out of for honor or some similar shit
i slashed a guys leg, he fell down, then i chopped right through his neck
greatswords, amirite?
yep
bro got that "Humans are..." expression on him ngl
greatswords amirite?
you found a gap in the armor
There is a gap between the chestplate and armet that is only covered by chainmail. so it has to be a really hard cut with really good accuracy
so i got it by sheer luck 😭
I saw several mentions of auto parry system
but i am half convinced those peopel were gaslighting
Guys how do I defeat the t10 boss The Count?
ask me anything about the events regarding this picture
Didn't even know this was possible
Why did you decide to use THAT sallet?
tbh i dont really care too much for how the armor looks, i just went with the first guy that had a greatsword and didnt think much else of it
Its bot dripless cand can be stabbed throught the gap in the front
ok yeah i see what you mean this helmet dont look all that good
I have stabbed throught that gap on multiple occasions
Hold your sword readied and idly trace circles
What circles
Willie will passive parry by adjusting to try parrying weapons
... that's not auto by any definition
It's moreso a problem when passive parry overrides your intended sequence of actions
he parries like a jackass
It’s autonomous
And automatic similarly because you don’t control it happens by itself
this faction sucks ass
Red and blue nation superiority
yea you dodge faster but everything else you do drains stamina MUCH quicker
what does dodge even mean
... but it does not?
Sprint speed I believe
it exists
it sucks
that's what i meant when i said gaslighting
i never noticed such a thing
It has a reasonable meaning but its implementation is awful
that one's literally just england
Don’t care
the most beautiful thing ive seen in my life
easiest way to prove its existence
go to commoner and get longsword
move your sword until it hits a dope looking diagonal left guard
walk up to ai willie and have him swing at you
Hey he stole my sword
that left guard will literally disappear and become perfectly vertical in a way that allows ai willie to easily cleave your arm off
(i tried to end him after but something goes wrong)
still mad about this clip tbh, it was fantastic parry practice until game crashed
you assuming i have not tried this
this is exactly the thing
nothing happens
no blade movement at all
i am going to show you when i get home from this shift
it's the reason why ox guard/kasumi no kamae lowkey sucks balls in this game
Well, it's a draw, I think
look
no reaction to hits whatsoever
move your sword to the left side until it tilts 45 degrees to the right
that stance sucks for parrying anything and is better used for strong vertical strikes or side/diagonal strikes
also want to show my fav way to do unarmed so far
short sprints in both directions
Very often it gives huge blood explosions
does ont matter which stance , no reaction to anything
fog really sucks for visibility
being french is such a detriment to your stamina that it would be easier to just die and restart with a new run
song with doorbell sound came on at just the right time - just as i was beating willie's head in with a morning star
FINALLY got him
dont blink
That barbute gap stab was brutal.
Aim for a gap, no matter the size 
I got a gap for you to aim for!
make this make sense.
I cleave a guy in the neck with a longsword, he lives.
He gently taps my left hand with a mace, I die INSTANTLY.
was that the only contact he made?
you drink milk
nuh uh
also, idk if u know but u can lower/raise outgoing/incoming damage in settings
Is it just me or is Willy very light, relative to the weapons used?
i agree
and unless im mistaken, armor seems to effect willie's maneuverability as well
but i spend all my time in commoner estoc 1v1s
Yeah it feels like it does
It feels like the game is a weird cross between fencing/fighting sim and goofy fighting game
Which kinda tanks the fencing side and makes it repetitive after a while
Yeah the armor slows him down by what feels like an unrealistic amount
half Shield
im in vanilla with no mods
some of these vids with peoples mods... its a different game for sure
i havent bothered to get into that and i try to limit myself in terms of ape and treat the game as a fencing sim so idk what the other side of the grass feels like
ive got mordhau and chiv 2 if i wanna fuck around and be magilla gorilla
put this away before @wind charm see's this
why?
Same here
Idk I just feel like it’s a cool concept for the sandbox functionality but I just can’t get Willy to do many advanced moves
I don't personally like shields
Oki i understand as Polearm dude
Like even just sniping a head with a pole hammer feels impossible a lot of the times, to the point of maces being better
Shields are good for punching things, thats it
they are good at interrupting my flow
Yep
god I hate shields
i had/have this problem but it went/is going away with interaction/time, like only using one weapon, and just spending an hour or two each day swinging at nothing, or not even swinging at all (moving very slowly and interacting with the planes/faces)
take for example this video #halfsword-chat-⚔ message from m00
I am not spending an hour a day punching air to do something I should be able to do easily in a video game
I could practice and consistently hit a head sized target irl with a sledgehammer in 15 minutes
Bro thinks he Mario
Guess im not 😢
on full armor tiers useless
but on less that can be usefull
i get that, but this game is probably always going to be jank like that
ive been playing games for almost two decades and games like this and tenshi have a special place in my heart as being the "hardest"
a lot of untapped potential in what you can do because of how goofy it is
Ik but I just wish they’d give us a bit more strength and control
youd be playing piano on your keyboard
But yeah the goofy mess is very fun if you embrace it
Maybe
3am drunk
With a lot of heavy weapons you are weighed down to the point of a lack of precision tho, which better strength would fix
lol
Too long at the tavern with the mates

Planceons are difficult to stop dang
how do i get image perms
that move he did pretty much shits on all polearms
Dang really?
talk in here enough until your acct levels up
they're not really worth parrying usually
okay guys so
better to outmaneuver
In my experience they’re very difficult to stop and I just half sword block and push
go do it in #halfsword-chat-⚔
i think halfsword is pretty good not gonna lie
Nice
we are in halfsword chat
errr #general-catfish-🐱🐟
I have literally never been able to do that
Do I suck?
I don’t have access to your hard drives idk
Do what? Batter the weapon out of the way?
So you don’t fill Mee6 with random messages to transfer between phone and PC
Parry heavy Polearms
Or at least Ive never tried enough to get good at it
parrying heavy polearms is imo easier than the light ones
Huh
plancon's hitbox is cheeks though so it's annoying
but the voulge presents itself as an easy target
same with billhook
I just half sword block n push and it works every time
there's a tried and true textbook way of fighting polearms in this game
me when the guy with the short spear ends your run in 0.02s
those ones are the hardest to parry
bro i was playing fistplay and this guy straight up killed himself 🙏
Yeah but Ive gotten used to them
he ran into the fence on purpose killing him
Still annoying but
bro thinks he still alive
is half life
why do the people that give up in fistplay turn into zombies and start crawling after u bro
i just deformed this guys back
parrying arguably the most fun aspect of this game
only thing is npc preference for stabs which is easy to beat its just boring to fight
AI's code doesnt stay in a position too long if you're mirroring it so I just hover near stab and it tries to rely on it less but even so
This was made so much darker by my playlist bringing up this at the exact time I watched this clip https://youtu.be/n8zhV0HU-hE?si=5VrV0iFXVUWaKSiX

or the left side feint strike into a stsb
which is THE easiest thing to parry and kill them with
i literally have a compilation of ai doing that same exact fuckass move
Also this dosen’t really work for me cuz I play in hyper violence with every damage Setting at the max so I will die
i play 75% damage to myself and 40% to enemy
i would know
that's why they take a hot minute to die sometimes and i have to decapitate them to ensure victory
yea ive noticed that as well
albeit i dont think of it as a feint and more of just their goofy ass AI code
im at 50% to me and whatever lowest is to AI
it's so goofy when they do it
because parrying a left strike is the EASIEST thing to do
like bruh we're not doing this today 🥀
