i like game from abyss demo

I think to maximize sales $25-$30 seems like a reasonable sum. For an indie game it's a premium experience.

but if ican smack his big pole away i can probably get a quick thrust in

only arm and helmet armour

that should do

and it isnt good against the spikes because he mangled an arm (it regeneraeted)

then just try to half sword and go in

#

how do you guys handle defense

#

like how does one parry everything or block

mint wadi
#

You don't.

naive holly
shrewd patio
#

i feel like i can land hits and i have spacing down, i just can't really parry consistently

mint wadi
#

There's also the dodge option.

lime perch
#

is it just me or is the commoner boss extremely OP

meager girder
#

you mean because reach?

lime perch
#

Yeah amongst other things

fierce solar
#

branding for this game:
"HALF SWORD, WE'LL FUCK WITH YOUR WILLIE"

naive holly
mint wadi
#

Parrying is risky for everyone. Even Clueless probably only successfully parries less than 50% of the time.

meager girder
#

reach is the name of the game when it comes to unarmored

naive holly
#

But quite doable

meager girder
#

just stab the commoner boss with a pitchfork

shrewd patio
#

okay okay, so mostly just focus on spacing and timing

meager girder
#

yep

shrewd patio
#

parrying is not necessarily the go-to

naive holly
#

Eventually you'll get more comfortable with parries but theyre not exactly easy

meager girder
#

and risky

lime perch
#

It's hard to stab when the alt key mostly just makes me swing overhead instead of stabbing. He just idles my sword above my head xd

shrewd patio
#

yeah, i have probably 100 hours total and they're still pretty tough

lime perch
#

does the FOV play a huge role in how you percieve the game or does it not really matter that much? like is lower fov better?

tepid vale
#

Kingdom come dehydrated

shrewd patio
#

thank you guys for the advice 😃

shell bronze
#

the other 50% consist of 10% instant deaths and 40% me simply not going for the parry and just controlling distance

mint wadi
#

Yeah lol the instant deaths are quite amusing sometimes.

#

Thinking you have the parry but they juked you and now you have a sword in your neck.

shell bronze
#

sometimes you want to put on a bit of a show and go for consecutive parries

#

then a horrible tragic fate happens

#

dangerous game to play unless you're fighting in man at arms/veteran

lime perch
#

I once hit the commoner boss in the arm with my sword thinking I did good, but in return he sliced my entire torso in half 🙂

shell bronze
#

that's why i find veteran clips to be WAY easier

lime perch
#

Very few games makes my jaw drop but seeing your character get stabbed in the bollocks repeatedly is certainly something

mint wadi
#

My favorite guard is the Ox Guard

#

It's not really great as a "guard" but it really lines up slashes for you.

shell bronze
lime perch
#

bro that overhead is perfect, I really struggle with mine

but in here it's balls

the auto parry compromises ox/kasumi no kamae entirely

I did get lucky here in that he swing early and missed me though.

#

Overheads and vertical slashes in general are THE answer to most things if you can do them correctly.

#

At least IRL.

shell bronze
mint wadi
#

They work both as attacks and parries.

#

Since if you match the speed of your opponent or go slightly faster as they are attacking horizontally, you sword will come in contact with theirs always with vertical slashes.

#

Barring specific circumstances where they go above yours after you've attacked.

2h axe is easier to deal with

the easiest way is to dodge

the cooler way is to do what i do best

shrewd patio
#

lol

#

so to practice parries do you just 1v1 specific weapons for like an hour

shell bronze
#

like 30 minutes for me

shell bronze
#

i just switch to my default commoner loadout, uptier him, and skip rounds until i fight the weapon i want

#

then i move on to the next weapon

#

I usually deal with shield/1h axe wielders by exploiting distance and openings

30 minutes is before i give up on the stylish parries and brutally murder them with pure footwork

#

i time my sessions

#

😂

#

they're bullying victims

#

literally impossible to lose to them on any grounds other than jank and skill issue

mint wadi
#

big fan of any stances that lets you do quick flicks with the 2h swords.

shell bronze
#

or failed parries

mint wadi
#

yeah parrying 1 handed is like...5% chance for me tbh

mint wadi
#

2 handed is probably 10%

shell bronze
#

i can parry one handed mace and swords well if they do higher up strikes

#

the leg cutting bs i immediately watch for the wind-up and back away to immediately wind up for my left strike

mint wadi
#

maces don't count because you can parry bad on those and come out fine.

fervent temple
#

Is there still a beta or early access separate from the demo?

shell bronze
mint wadi

I often parry but since it's sharp, they nab me a little and I die.

i dont know man. i feel like insulting someone just cause they said only being able to fight in a single way kinda takes the coolness away is kinda dumb. like even on tier down is so far above the full knight tier. because you can actually attack in different ways than just
swing at head. swing at head. swing at head. swing at head. oh hey i accidentally stabbed him somewhere

Anyways, I'm using Halfsword Enhancer which you can get on Nexus Mods to use slow motion without it using stamina.

#

You can kick like that without slow mo but it's basically impossible to actually watch the kick as it happens that way.

#

You just turn your camera and body as you kick, pressing S to go back+ A or D to turn respectively makes you turn on your heels, so you turn fast.

overheads are hard to get right

dire moon
#

Back to the story mode open world tho.
Could be kinda fun to have different factions around that u can approach and challenge or whatnot as well
Like the woodsman has a faction of lumberjacks in the forest that u fight or something, nobles like the baron in the main castle. Peasants and beggars or highway men bandits between towns on the road that try to rob or attack. That sort of shit

dire moon
#

Bounty hunters. All that good stuff. Could really lead to an interesting and great game
Each town u go to would have homes to buy so u can store your shit

Any fun techniques to learn in half sword?

I mastered spinning heel kicks

#

Anything else

tawny compass

I wanna see the spinning heel kick

dire moon
#

Spinning heel kick is like entry level.

smoky relic
dire moon
#

Watch some real long sword fights and mimick the way they hold before they attack

smoky relic
#

It lowkey might be the strongest technique though

dire moon
#

Like low and high guards and such

smoky relic
#

Because even with damage set really low a spinning heel kick still knocks them out in 1-2 hits on the jaw

The spin is fun

#

Spinning slashes is next level

I’ve never heard of that

Spin around and slash a tiny spot under the armor, like a 360 no scope

I have been enjoying the half sword grip a lot, it's fun to use to throw the opponents weapon out of the way and then come back with an attack as u move to defend

plucky remnant

#

i wonder why escape from tarkov is listed as an influence on half sword (havent played it but looking to scratch an itch)

stone lintel
#

Does anybody know how i can stop the fatal errors

fierce acorn
fierce acorn
lapis marsh
fierce acorn
#

exactly, no one lives in wyoming

#

less in oregon

dire moon
#

Why did u ask then!

#

I'm much farther south

fierce acorn
#

To make a point that neither exist

dire moon
#

Oh. Fair.
I don't know about that tho. I have seen both on a map

fierce acorn
#

Yeah but they were made up to take more space

lapis marsh
#

Wyoming is a lie made by big farma to sell you less food

fierce acorn
#

Yeaha

#

dont forget big Maps too

candid saffron
#

yo which version is more recent

amber vessel
#

Death is a concept invented by Big Nature to stop you from living forever

candid saffron
#

itch or steam demo

amber vessel
#

Remember that

amber vessel
candid saffron
#

thats what it felt like

dire moon
candid saffron
#

i been playing the hell out of the demo but i cant get past the peasant boss so i downloaded the itch version but it feels worse

amber vessel
#

Steam demo is most recent

candid saffron
#

is passing the peasant boss somthing most ppl can do

amber vessel
#

Usually yeah

#

Grab the knife in the middle of the map and run him down with it pointing out

lapis marsh
#

I prefer the long candlestick

#

Gives you better range and protection

short pagoda
#

im gonna get my fourth baron kill soon

candid saffron
#

but i cant find any weapons in the peasant arena

short pagoda
lapis marsh
#

Wait you mean the scythe man?

#

Double handed axe

solemn nova
#

how to play with my friends?

dire moon
#

They're impossible until u do it then you're like wtf was wrong w me

dire moon
solemn nova
#

done, now?

grand rapids
#

i keep getting fatal errors bro

dire moon
#

If u mean here u can't play with their half sword on halfsword yet

grand rapids
#

makes the ultimate challenge impossible

dire moon
#

Almost off at least

grand rapids
#

that makes it boring tho

dire moon
#

That's the only way rn.

solemn nova
#

so i cant play with a friend in the demo?

short pagoda
#

im clashing with the soon to be killed fourth baron

dire moon
#

U asked

solemn nova
#

n why when i play i'm in the dark place always?

grand rapids
#

damn ill just wait until its fixed to play

short pagoda
#

you can fix it with gentle mode

#

thats how to not get fatal errors

#

for now

grand rapids
#

yeah but gentle makes the gore bad

short pagoda
#

it will be patched and you can finally use gore

#

eh

#

turn blood a little

#

so you understand if you did land hits

#

but too little

dire moon
short pagoda
#

since blood is what triggers the error i think

grand rapids
#

its dismemberment that triggers it for me

#

specifically the head and upper body

dire moon
#

Try with blood off

short pagoda
grand rapids
#

ill do it tmr i cba to play now

dire moon
#

The blood literally kills the game

grand rapids
#

10 fatal errors in less than 15 minutes killed my motivation to play

short pagoda
#

just turn on gentle mode at this point

#

and turn blood a inch

#

i use that thing to get baron kills usually

#

fatal eerror pmo

dire moon
#

Happened to me too til I turned the blood off. Then I got the baron and it's back on again

short pagoda
#

clashing with him

dire moon
short pagoda
#

imagine

#

your slaughtering

dire moon
#

Different towns have different barons, maybe different weapons n such

short pagoda
#

and you get ambushed

#

so open world game would both be laggy and too hard

#

and also

#

know that abyss exists

#

you can just walk and loot

dire moon
#

Oh yeah, game over at that point. Part of the fun tho. Sort of dark souls meets the Witcher meets kingdoms come

short pagoda
#

kill and slaughter

dire moon
#

I haven't tried abyss yet

#

The ultimate challenge was enough for me when I was getting fatal errors so I just kept with the free mode after the baron. I'll try it today tho

short pagoda
#

abyss is hard

#

but not harder than ultimate challengee tho

#

baron bossfight takes like almost onee hour to kill and if we include other willies

pearl zinc
#

change ur settings like a noob

short pagoda
#

but

pearl zinc
#

and just hope for a lucky shot

short pagoda
#

its a little timeconsumin

pearl zinc
#

its fun tho

short pagoda
#

and while trying to get to baron the willies can kill you

pearl zinc
#

ive killed him 3 times and i barely play the game

short pagoda
#

like how i got one tapped when i was at last wave before baron

pearl zinc
#

u kill the willies tho

#

i usually kill them in time

#

then the baron ambushes me cuz i didnt realise how far i was in the game

#

gicing me a heart attack

#

giving

pearl zinc
pearl zinc
#

i couldnt see it and got my hand cut off\

short pagoda
#

i even use my fists when i feel like my weapon isnt working well on them

pearl zinc
#

i tried kicking the baron to death lol

#

what i remember is that he lost his first weapon and swithced to his sword and somehow threw it at me or somth

#

and got my hand cut off

#

theres a pic of a glitch in bug reporting

#

imma stop yapping no

#

#

one of my friends wants me to play bobloc

#

so yuh

#

cya

candid saffron
#

bruh

#

how do i kill this second boss

#

with the scythe

#

there are no weapons in the whole arena

solemn holly
candid saffron
#

you can do that

#

?\

#

oh shit

#

i just clicked the peasant icon

#

changed everything

#

thanks

#

Is willie sometimes speaking german?

#

some voicelines feel like they are

solemn holly
dire moon
candid saffron
#

ok what abt

#

guys that just point the tip of their weapon at u

#

i cant get past them i try smacking them away

dire moon
#

Someone posted a great technique for it.
Hold on half sword with the handle toward the enemy, as they approach side step right and rotate at the same time so blade it facing enemy now

#

Try a few in Freeplay

candid saffron
#

oooh good idea

dire moon
#

It works consistently when u can string it all together and it feels really nice too. More like you're actually moving with purpose rather than trying different things til something sticks.
I have a fun method for the shield opponents too if u get stuck on them

dire moon
candid saffron
#

working on getting to the point in the game where there ARE people with swords 💔

solid sun
#

Has anyone uploaded a extended version of Aurelio on youtube? I need it for a dnd im working on

twilit escarp
naive holly
candid saffron
#

how do you swap modes?

dire moon
naive holly
#

To return to gauntlet from free play theres a giant button where the faction list would be

shell bronze
#

then either parry or just exploit the opening somehow

candid saffron
#

damn those are impresive especially the two handed

shell bronze
#

like this

#

after a while it's easy to gauge which attacks can be parried/exploited and which ones to just wait out

tired stream
shell bronze
formal plover
# shell bronze

this is like an op endgame ability that you only get when you beat the game lmao i didnt even see it hit his neck

naive holly
#

Bro is simply cracked

shell bronze
#

it's very common when you parry the one handed guys and their own weapon flings yours at their neck

#

or close parries in general

tired stream
#

parrying is cool

shell bronze
#

i've been having some recreational low skill fun with the kratos build

sleek mica
shell bronze
#

i block his side swipe

#

and my sword outreaches his

dire moon
#

Work on small movements. A lot of the game tends to have us want to do big grand gestures but even the most minor can land a killing blow. It's about keeping that blade at the enemy

shell bronze
#

so as he takes that final step my blade just swipes him

#

then i flick it the other way and it just slits his throat

naive holly
#

@shell bronze question, was this just lucky or is there actually tech to stab from a higher guard, just in your experience.

Ik theres no actual feature but if I can find a way to fenagle this consisntent.... my god

shell bronze
#

i actually nailed him before his falchion even touched my sword

#

if you listen and watch a bit close

shell bronze
#

irl i do that but the game doesn't like it when you try doing that stuff

formal plover
#

looks like you swung hard enough to the left to get the sword lifted like that before you stabbed i could be wrong though

dire moon
#

Move like you're going to raise the sword all the way above head but then lower a bit and move to the left or right and you'll hold that high guard form

sleek mica
shell bronze
#

one of my few problems with the movement is that you can't hold a higher guard and keep your weapon still trained on the enemy

dire moon
shell bronze
#

because it has to decide between parrying and winding up for an attack

sleek mica
#

Yeah we need situational wrist control

#

Could it be scroll wheel?

formal plover
naive holly
#

Annoooyyyying

#

Game would evolve so much if we could do that

shell bronze
#

the ACTUAL physics jank bruh\

#

i'm just playing around with the local population of commoner longsword users

sleek mica
#

I've had that

shell bronze
#

and this happens

#

the decaps get weird sometimes

sleek mica
#

They go flying past the fence

shell bronze
#

i wanna do ox/kasumi no gamae so bad

sleek mica
#

They even do a helicopter

shell bronze
#

the helicopter happens more often if you stick a polearm into them

#

this is precisely why i play uptier

#

it's more fun fighting an actual variety of weapons

#

with the exception of the longsword every other weapon combination in commoner is cheeks

sleek gull
shell bronze
#

militia is so much more fun and challenging

sleek mica
#

Soldier would be better if everyone had a breastplate

#

There would be more distinction between them

candid saffron
#

i cannot win a swordfight for the life of me

#

😭

sleek mica
#

Joust

candid saffron
#

ive tried standing my ground and parrying and then reacting with a follow up strike but i can never get the follow up strike to do damage before they get another hit in

#

and when i do successfuly parry it was such a shitty attack from the ai that i probably didnt even have to in thef irst plce

shell bronze
candid saffron
#

i think i do

#

idk what qualifies as a grasp

shell bronze
#

if you want to simply win against ai willie in a swordfight then footwork should be your first priority

#

timing second

candid saffron
#

if i like really really really tried my hardest i could get a reliable kill like 60% of the time

#

thats probably not a grasp

shell bronze
#

let me show you how to win 90%+ of the time

#

all of these clips have one thing in common

#

and were made back to back

#

not a single parry

mental kelp

#

2 hammers spawned so i broke all his limbs and then poked some extra holes in him to balance the humours

#

balanced them a little too much though

fierce acorn
#

my mom 😂 (im like 3 inches taller)

dire moon
fierce acorn
#

taller than me maybe

#

i'll have to check

dire moon
#

Anyone here tried that windmill technique?? U take a longsword and just twirl it around your body in circles

fierce acorn
#

im taller than my brother

#

he's around the same height as my mom though i think, im not sure

dire moon
#

Brutal. Hopefully that doesn't pose a challenge for him and the ladies. As long as he's confident he will be ok

dire moon
#

Wait...

soft kelp
dire moon
# fierce acorn no

Theres a video from that strider guy where he is using it. Seems pretty legit

fierce acorn
#

from tf2?

#

do you mean stridah's angels

dire moon
#

That's the one yea

#

He posted it recently I think. Want to try later tonight. Might just go home and cook tho been a day for sure here at work

#

Were u trying to find some ppl to sword fight earlier. Is that why u were asking about Wyoming. Or r u really convinced it's not real

dire moon
#

The world

fierce acorn
#

What

#

????

#

i mean

#

world is a word

#

L is kinda flat

#

w is flat lines

#

d has a flat line

#

if you're talking about the EARTH

#

then

#

no it's not flat it's bowtie shaped

dire moon
#

Interesting indeed.

#

I mean earth tho. I work with some ppl who think it's flat

shell bronze
fierce acorn
#

it's not flat

#

it's bowtie shaped

mental kelp
#

Brother the earth is an octahedron

dire moon
#

The only thing flat around here is my ex!
Ba bum tsss

dire moon
#

Elegant and refined ayy

#

this game needs a star wars themed dlc

shell bronze
#

the exact moment i recognize the move it's literally always wraps and i don't like it

dire moon
shell bronze
#

as soon as i mention it it happens again

#

like bruh

dire moon
#

I'm really hoping I can get under enough of y'all's skin that we make some noise about how we want it to go

#

And hopefully ppl agree about factions and maybe even the open world aspect of things

#

I just think it would be too cool journeying from the little village to the castle and get ambushed by bandits or whatnot along the way.

ashen merlin
#

pvp would be amazing in this game

dire moon
#

Or getting to the places and challenging their champions, maybe getting into bar fights, drinking would be kinda funny even, throwing off balance but take less DMG

dire moon
shell bronze
#

game too jank for pvp

dire moon
#

Pvp would be fun but might also end up causing a highly toxic community. More things to do and choose from would be nice before pvp

shell bronze
#

there's better priorities

soft kelp
shell bronze
#

bro your vertical swing

soft kelp
#

Ignore that yo

#

greatswords are concerningly good blunt weapons in this game

#

I have yet to get an armored kill with that hammer u were using at the end

#

Bummer lol I feel like the mace isn't properly balanced?

soft kelp
#

Nah mace is good

#

Kinda jank tho

dire moon
#

Maybe that's what it is. My wife was kicking ass with it but when I gave her the longsword she was just flailing

dusty terrace
#

hello yall, I came in here to report a bug that made the character naked after I died and won simultaneously

fierce acorn
#

That's not a bug

dusty terrace
#

is this a known problem

fierce acorn
#

Yes but it's not a bug dude

fierce acorn
#

It's an easter egg they added

dusty terrace
#

😭

shell bronze
#

that is somewhat effective

dusty terrace
#

confused the fuck out of me

fierce acorn
#

lol

shell bronze
#

because the armor ensures you don't get bullshit ass cuts and decapitations that prevent you from actually using the mace properly

soft kelp

Cant even take the mace boss seriously because his head is fully exposed

the AI don't beat your weapons away even though they realistically could since they have leverage

If you get hit in the head u get dizzy and u might lose grip but

#

i get what u mean

#

not the same thing

dusty terrace
# soft kelp They do

idk, in commoner tier I can hold my sword out in front of me and then just win

#

in the traditional "get away from me" guard

soft kelp

Ai isnt that advanced yet
