With the touch of THIS key, your Willie will flip his polaxe the other way round so each implement gets a use!
So
what do you think
Ahem... honestly hes bullshit but really fun once you finally learn him
I believe theyve said theyve got that in the works
oh nice
You might appreicate this as an arming sword enjoyer.
the same key could be used for mordshlagging swords perhaps!
Haha I've realized the AI can absolutely not account for hand switches
Bastard sword -> half sword grip + hand swap: gets you the one hand in hand-and-a-half
And you're right they absolutely cant lmao.
A little floppy but feels totally different from the arming sword and longsword
As one might guess lmao
mordshagg with a greatsword would be DEVASTATING for armor
that should give it a propper use in the knigt tier
I call this "The lobotomizer"
yowz-a-ramma
This is my favorite type of gameplay tbh. I longsword all day, and then actually have fun when im doing FPP dualies
Trust me he's just being a baby
Nothing the barber surgeons cant stitch up ☺️
Yall I just realized they patched the hats, I cant use them to aim anymore NOOOOOO
Ive noticed I can pull off a lot more techniques in fp than tp
A little concussion never hurt anybody
speaking of obstructed view
i get that they wanted the helmets to be as realistic aspossible but COME ON dude
Bro you think thats bad they still havent fixed the barbute
the least you could do is a strong vingette
like look at this hahahaha
oh thats the one that is litterally impossible to see out of
What's sad is its technically the helmet with the MOST visibility
Thie sallet gives you the most visibility.
Bc the forehead is further back than the nose, and the camera is right on the bridge of willies nose
Ik you meant irl I just meant dumb demo wise
In game yes but I think realistically the barbute has more breathability and visibility
doin sum blind training with the barbute
mrzachnono should attempt to beat the gauntlet with the first person barbute
sorry ive never plaied this game befor xD
welcome to half sword!
its cozy
i just met Blueberry in another server and thay game me the pitch lol
is it just the demo out right now?
Start choppin willies
do YOU like medieval warfare?

WELL HAVE WE GOT THE GAME FOR YOU
IM SO MAD
How many hours on half sword have yall got?
:D
literally 0

TABS MENTION 🗣️🗣️🔥
:D!!!
oki!
ill check it out!!
its "half sword" on steam?
yeppers
Bro did it to himself
unfortunately, you did miss the glory that was the old half sword abyss
but dont woryy about that right now
the old demo
i think he killed you
probably
time to record some new clips tonight instead of going to sleep early for the purchasing of my 3rd car tomorrow
is this game multi playre?!! :O
no
no
😭
Alr hotshot we get it 
like... a BIG shot..?
i see what you did there buddy
i love deltapeak
i only played undertale back in 2017
femby if you dont mind i wanna see your gameplay
me when half sword is just not very difficult
its like watching a baby take its first steps
😂
i have the camaro in my garage, the current daily driver 335i, and i have my sights set on a nice camry to abuse while i build my bmw's motor
you are obnoxious
OI!
Oh YEAH!? Oh yeah??
I have an '04 Santa Fe that's had an intermittent check engine light for 18 months.
But she still makes the 5 hour drive to Chicago on the reg 
🙄
This was my first impression too but he grows on ya
if it's 15 years old or more it has to have a check engine light or else it's going to explode
my 335i has a CEL for the downpipes (i ripped the catalytic converters out)
so you guys americans?
yep
perchance
moved here from vietnam 8 years ago
good for you
interesting
yeah it's chillax
how was it there
I want to go to america someday
ok? whats wrong in the us rn?
nothing is wrong with the us depending on where you go
lots of political problems that i dont wanna bore you with
it's a good place to be if you avoid the uhhhhh
questionable zones
but it does depend on how you look at it
i'm enjoying my time here and have been for the last 8 years
Its dire lately
hmm, well i hope it gets better for yall
speaking of travelling
All people can do is hope
i might go to hiroshima next year
in vietnam i wouldn't have had the luxury to be able to sit down at my pc and play half sword
very big maybe
or have the ability to work hard to own 3 cars
Willie didn't ragamuffin the hedgeborn....
Its cool there i visited Japan last year actually
the beast has awoken

Omfg the damage on the ultimate challenge is bs
The enemies are made out of rock
Simply.. dont get hit
TRUUEEE
Nab a polearm and keep swangin
i do that but the enemies dont fall no matter how many times i hit them on the head
And one manages to barely touch my back or feet
And im dead
"but it refused..." ahh enemies 🥀🥀
use a crossbow atp
the baron was a little bit anti climactic ngl
i went through all that just to bap him on the head and he went down in like 3 hits
he didnt touch me
yeah
how does he even manage the thing
he doesnt, he constantly releases one hand on the thing

the commoner/militia enemies in the baron challenge gave me the most trouble
the militia enemies are genuinely balls to fight
especially when the game gives you one singular falchion and throws 2 plancons at you
fr the early game is the hardest you basically have to pray to rng that you get a billhook
but once you get past that point and take a nice polearm it's cheese
its not cheating its just using your resources
the baron when i lure him over the perfectly placed godendag so that he gets vietnam-war-bamboo-spike-trapped and dies
and the fact that you can't even aim correctly bc the spears always move like the hace mind of its own
mace users try not to be literal pushovers that pose no threat challenge (impossible difficulty)
idk i prefer the bardiche over the billhook but the billhook can get some crazy critical hits more easily tho
while the npcs can perfectly hold their weapon in place
bardiche just has a bigger kill zone and i like
well mace better in armored combat, sword in unarmored
what bardiche
i think he means the voulge
yeah
gotcha
mace is pretty good in unarmored combat but then the polearm kind of just overshadows everything
it does overtake the sword in effectiveness unless you get good at using your sword as a baseball bat
this one
yeah thats a voulge
personally i still call it a halberd
death
it might not be a bardiche but its especially not a halberd
halberds are more like axe shape and they have a point at the top
ever since i made that cardboard halberd my friend wont stop calling me berdly
also i just gotta say
katana v longsword again
I WANT A KATANA!!!
who the hell are you
Why? its not that bad
the one handed spear that you get a shield with?
yeah
i always thought it was booty cheeks
it sucks as a weapon in this game and irl
Well as a proud european i own 3 swords myself
hold your horses there buckaroo
i think longsword is superior over a katana but idk about sucks..
its not THAT bad
i just use it because i do kenjutsu and kendo and my fighting style looks better with it
me when the steel is folded 1000 times (they had to do this because the steel was literally so ass)
most intense kendo fight:
you found your iron in a bog!
fr
real
kendo is pretty chill but i want to get into hema
more freedom and the weapon selection/handling is objectively superior
Come to poland my friend we do that alot here
ive always wanted to do hema
oh yeah your like those crazy sabre guys right??
it looks so cool when you fence
yeah, i own 2 sabres one russian shaska and one polish hussar sabre, their dull tho
i dont think theres such a thing as a sword that sucks ngl (in real life)
ofc some are better than others but i doubt theres a sword thats so terrible its unusable
also have a german bastard sword replica
i 3d print model swords
im cool too, guys 😭😭
make a khopesh and ill give you a cookie
here in america they only sell lame ol guns at markets smh
im sticking to european swords
not really have you seen zweihänder?
zweihander users when ther giant fucking crossguard gouges out both of their eyes
zweihander is a badass weapon
amen
imagine carrying one of those mfers around in like the 16th century or whatever
probably got caught on so many doorways
But really tell me what looks cooler? A gaint ass german zweihänder or some katana
prolly
oh guys i have an important question
im going to a rennaisance fair this year (first time)
legend has it you can still find german pubs with cuts in the doorway from zweihanders
what are their prop regulations
the whole stpeeing on a sword thing and losing a foot is a bit much..... lol
(the legend doesnt has it)
I would know wir haben keine schnitte in unseren Türren
look on their website or call if you cant find anything, every one is different
i might do a langsknecht cosplay
i always go as a satyr because i spent too much money on the legs to only use them once
carring an odachi around with drippy samurai armor might rival it for coolness
its pretty cool having hoofs
(samurai used polearms and bows)
Landsknecht lands means people of the land
i really want to bring my cardboard halberd
why use a sword when you can pull out a flintlock and skip all that nonsense
basically the 18th century
yeah basically
Remember what happened when the europeans came to japan? Watch last samurai
also having the beak/spike at the back
anyone wanna vc?
there was a time when the japanese had more firearms than the europeans once they had been introduced
kesagiri ❤️
everyone used Teppo/Tanegashima from the Ashigaru to the most high-rank of Samurai
give me a weapon to slander im bored (in half sword)
even Sohei monks
plancon
easy target
i already did
2h axe
what
I feel like half sword multiplayer would get the Chivalry multiplayer effect only somewhat crazier
the small billhook
in the farmer tier
like a guy does a 720 pretzel and all the sudden your hands are cut off
is there any mods for a Naginata
imma go take a leak, wish me luck
no
but i would love to have a yari in the game
Chivalry multiplayer was fucking RANCID lmao I could not keep u pas a youngin
so trve
typa mfs who have to tattoo left and right on their hands so they dont get em mixed up use ts
i love the skull breaking sound, i dont know who did it but he has my honours!
throwing weapons is gonna be meta
new one
A big mod/modpack with a group of Ashigaru and Samurai weaponry would go INSANELY hard
some guy with an axe vs you in half sword multiplayer
(he throws it perfectly at your head)
why would you mod a game thats still in demo
lmfao some guys got a youtube channe lwhere all he does is throw small dirks/daggers at people to try and get them to rage
I got a throw kill for the first time yesterday and I felt so badass
with the hatchet too
because its too peak to wait
duh
once the full game is out we'll robably get them
throwing the hatchet got me feeling like kratos
idk why but i cant view ur videos :C
I know a Streltsy Bardiche might be pretty late-on but its my favorite type in terms of look
good taste
idk why it happens to people it might be the h.265 codec
pitchfork in Peasant tier?
use my large axe as a gunrest 
long range circumsicion
do you think the engine would be able to handle a chain knife
probably noooo maybee
idfk
pitchfork users patiently waiting for you to fall onto their spikes
(they cant accept that the handling for it is shit)
slander the barons poleaxe
light work no reaction
the baron's poleaxe is genuinely dogshit
lol
yeah trve lmao
it sucks, bad
people say the baron is too weak but if you pick up any regular weapon you will come to realize that he is actually strong as fuck
best part of playing as the Baron is just sonning tf out of the willies
the absolute state of mace users in low tiers
light work no reaction
that thing sucks literal balls
it hits when it hits but why would you ever ever use it in the same tier as longsword
"heehee look at me im not using a bladed weapon im so quirky and silly"
it killed me once whilst not being wielded by a willie, it was laying on top of a sword and when i went to pick the sword up it flinged up into my face
actually most of the commoner weapons are bad
it's genuinely better to just stay as farmer for all of it even the grete champion
if i want to cheese i take the pitchfork to veteran, then swap to voulge for the rest of the run
especially the grete champion actually
commoner champion gets messed up by any farmer polearm
commoner champion isn't too bad when you stop trying to block him/charge at him recklessly
firm strikes and good timing/footwork makes light work of him
I swear he is more tanky tho
even at default damage settings he takes a lot of punishment
maybe that's just me
he is
that's why i play max gore so i can disarm him easily
free win card the moment his arm/hand comes off
well if the hand comes off their done anyway
they immediately go into screaming mode
poleaxe users when they accidently shove their spear into the ground so hard it opens up a dark fountain (it fell out of their top hand for the umpteenth time)
all the polearms do that tho ngl
warhammer enjoyers being cool:
i like the small poleaxe the one in knight tier
I forget which tier has the fully armored champion but his head is totally exposed
that guy is a bum
falchion and dagger users when bastard sword:
that's veteran boss
is that egghead
thing is with this game is i want to use other weapons but when its so easy to just reroll until you get the good one why would you not
you can still use other weapons
pov: bandit attempts to fight geralt of rivia
true..
Because after a while winning isnt everything
Imma try to do a t2 hatchet run again, I got up to man at arms last time
damn thats impressive
yeah
the peasant is impressed by winning the lord is impressed by aurafarming
you must be good at hitting the unarmored parts
me personally i prefer just hitting the willies over the head until they take a nap
art of the bonk
Thats how it ended lol
damn he just snapped you in half
that's the armored combat meta
Irl and in game believe it or not 
Godendag (plancon) mains trying not to glaze their weapon for more than 2 seconds ( challenge level: nightmare++)
What is your fav toby fox song goober?
dark sanctuary 1
bro pinched you in two
hey question, is the skull breaking sequence achievable normally without looking for it?
i always HAVE to smash their heads for like 15 mins each but i ask if it is achievable normally
me when i try to parry practice and this guy grabs me
i still cant see the videos bro im so mad

i can see a few but not all
hey whats ur guys max record of a single life?
like the kind of ranked gamemode instead of the free mode
try using discord web if it doesn't work
if you flub the win this bad you deserve to be knighted and promptly killed
why did u grab his weapon bro xD
"the good ones" ™
aura
that is so pussy
i can see jaimes video
nuh uh
jaime can u see the other guys video??
idek what tha fuck that is bro
u cant see them probably cus theyre like 400 mb each
how many hours yall got on the demo
yall are not prepared
slight inconvenience
bro got eviscerated
so far the axe run is going well
do u have any ibuprofen
always aura farm ALWAYS
u dont know nothing abt aura farm
i toss my weapon
and start punching them
waiting for them to stand up
thats too involved you gotta be nonchalant
so when update?
What
2030
no how about you share with the class what exactly you meant by that
Long knife is best for peasant, more reach, more consistent, better stab
pussy behaviour
Coming from someone who has beat the challenge mode and abyss
mace hammer for the win
arent all the carnage knives the same length
aura farm
idk it doesnt really matter which ones best lol its peasant tier
There is one smaller than the others
No there is the the fat blade, the teeny little pairing knife, and the long blade
The cleaver has better stabbing and cutting
The first two are similar length, long blade is several CM longer
unarmored combat is so fun ❤️
yeah theres the shiv/pearing knife, chefs knife, butcher knife
In my experience it sucks major baboon ball sack for consistent stabbing, and slashing is just a waste of time with knives
shiv is just a worse chefs - but goated reguardless - and butcher is best for big chops
the cleaver is better for slashing
its great for stabbing too
I find it gets more fatal cuts that way than the other 2
I'll do some t1 carnage for yall
fr
Slashing for when the enemy gets too close and you cant stab
It always works
Im a stabber
No way
honestly all of the knives work fine if you play right
When the enemy gets too close is when slashing is the worst with knives because your character over shoots with their arms and you slap the enemy with your elbows indtead
shiv tbh my favorite istg
one good stab with any of them and you're dead anyways
Doesnt mean you should use knives in peasant tier they suck ass
any plancon annihilators in the chat
Stabbing is way more efficient in this regard as you can draw in tight to your torso then thrust straight on
ohh that things called a plancon
How do you control t3 boss sword like that, mine has anaemia
ive always called it barbed spear
yeah of course
my point is that they all kind of just work the same
with love and care (slower movements)
in peasant tier if u play carnage you are automatically given a knife
I was referring to the bottom most tier where knives are the only option
Beggar?
That's beggar
oh
Oi
Unless you do the free for all with chairs and shit
Then big candle stick is the goat
Candle stick meta is a thing
Hell in abyss I will run big candle stick up until tier 5-6 boss
It's just too good
wtf
im on default damage setting
hes just built diffrent, had a similar thing where i stabbed one in the gut and he just kept comming anyways
that's perfectly normal
I've literally removed hands and feet and some NPCs are just built different
i shouldve grabbed the sword and pushed it in further
i was too scared by his aura
Fuck
oh theres 100% some kind of variable for how tanky they are regardless of your settings
no way
@plush spade @vagrant comet @sullen acorn @mortal barn @craggy kernel holy shit that’s a lot of Aiden’s but we must fight over the name “Aiden” who ever calls dibs first wins (not including me)
Wouldn’t let me put all you down
I figure it's like Tarkov where some Scavs(most) match your health, but some get super health
super health? never heard of that. Thats just bad hit reg isnt it?
Scavs have 3 health pools to pick from check wiki
Default, big, bigger
Iirc
It's been a while
Tarkov sucks but I still remember a lot of stuff from before I quit
thats interesting, well thanks for sharing now i know
I've noticed there seems to be like 2 parallel health pools for NPCs (and PC) one being physical blood level/health
The other being a pain index
you get a feel for it
Cause I've had times where I loose a limb especially when it's beneath the elbow, and I'm not dead/bleeding out
But my character gets stuck clutching their arm and only thing I can do is walk and kick
So it's like my pain health ran out but my health health is fine
Same with NPCs
In the reverse there's plenty of times where I retain full control of my character even as I actively bleed out
that 45 degree angle makes a nice difference to the overhead
put it into words so well
being knocked out is a little weird too, there seems to be a brain damage system where taking more blunt damage reduces your motor functions
slicing wounds dont do that
yeah you get all wonky and unstable and drop your weapon sometimes
My interpretation is that head trauma permanently reduces max stamina
Can’t choose an exact favorite
As the penalty for severe head trauma matches being low on stamina
oof his neck
Big shot and tv time are cool
cheesse
teach those polearm willy whos boss
cheese
I like parrying with pole arms
you ever do this for literally no reason
strongest polearm user vs Longsword enjoyer
cheese
Feels very technical and intentional whereas sword parry feels more like the game doing it rather then me
LOL
cheese
cheese
Should of taken a picture I had a really fun stab on a guy that just went straight up his rear
Real pain the ass it must have been for him haha
(I'll see myself out)
cheese
Indeed
I remember one time I killed the scythe boss and as he was going down the scythe lodged itself in my skull
killed by gravity
happens more often than i would like to admit
cheese
I need your opinion on jousting
Scythe boss has pretty much always killed me with janky physics
As a game mode
cheese
is that holding your weapon out in thrust and just walking forward into the enemy
oh
they'd have to model and animate horses and I don't think they want to do that
bread
This is technically what jousting is yeah
cheese
Yes
Horse gore fr
But the thing is
You have to aim your lance at Willie yourself
I prefer not to see animal cruelty portrayed
Like
Fr

the worst is when you step on one of these bad boys and it goes straight through your foot like a loose nail
No
i tried to do it on purpose for the picture and it was like impossible but it happens more than once to me
Physically aiming your lance with the mouse
Alternatively it flies up and knocks you in the dome
There is a sort of skill factor to it
cheese
Gore? As...gore?
There is significant skill factor to real jousting
yeeeeper
Atleast the sport I mean
cheese
How you aim the Lance is directly proportional to how likely you are to knock your opponent down. Plus you get points for shattering your lance
its not my fault
she ran right in front of my truck
Yes
cheese
But for Lancing in the field I'm not sure it really matters as long as you hit the guy they're having a bad time
a…bad…time?
If a sharpened spear is dug into your person at 20 to 40 miles an hour, no matter where on the body that happens, it will be bad time for you
So I'm unsure of the importance of aiming for field lancing
Jousting is a sport you get points for doing different things
Interesting
I forget all the things that score
But breaking lance, knocking your opponent down, not falling down yourself
Iirc all those things score points
Knocking your opponent down gets the most points
The points just go towards wining the tourney my dude
I mean you might get a prize foe winning but the points are just points in the context of the game
It's like points in wrestling
Or soccer
Ok
why use actual swordplay when you could hit this elite move that willy doesnt want you to know about
They are meaningless outside the context of that particular event
I have another idea for a gamemode
Hear me out
i have another one that works
Castle raid
3 fps
Willy will walk into your thrust on his own accord like 50% of the time
No but basically what it is is just an abyss reskin
I just want a mode that let's me fight endless groups
Heroic stand but endless basically
You break into a castle with modest armor right
Also I've come to the conclusion heroic stand is talking about the 4 saps trying to fight you in full plate
And you go through all the rooms beating off guards and getting new weapons until you reach the throne room in which you fight the baron
And not talking about you in full plate seal clubbing 4 dudes in no gear/basic protection
the caseoh special
it works doe
Very clean
theres that tankiness variable i was talking about earlier
it took so long for him to go down
his tactic is so ahh that the devs crashed his game on purpose that one time
Pinning his arm to his chest is metal as fuck
Hollywood would have you believe these screenshots are in Mexico
Make him invert his sword into his stomach
shield users try not to be literal fodder challenge
I've tried in vein to stab an npc in the chest then have them fall onto the hilt driving the sword hilt deep
There needs to be a secret thing you have to do so you get to fight Pierrot himself as a super hard boss
Shield kits are my favorite to play with
😦
Shame that npcs suck with them
using shield as a player is easy and fun
I find 1 handed weapons so difficult to use
Fun fact you can tap right click to adjust where you hold your shield
being a shield user npc you are literally worthless
His weapon? Comically large carpenters mallet
By default you hug it to your body but you can extend it
I got attached to short sword and shield combo recently very fun on man at arms tier
The full body shield dudes are sometimes alright
Mostly by accident
I mostly just use longsword
Longsword is too goated that it gets boring
Incredibly hard for me but getting proper block or parry is really satisfying
shield npc when you absolutely eviscerate their shins with a sweeping attack
And there aren't enough styles
me when i hold my weapon in a 45 degree left favoring overhead attack:
Depends on what weapon you have
fr fr, its either head or shins when fighting shields
Tower pavise users trying not to cower behind their huge brick wall and actually fight
Coming up to you, tucked behind that thing, like a nat guards man in LA on a Tuesday afternoon
what
Riot control dudes are basically modern day tower pavise guys
real
anyone know what this square sword is called
its my fav commoner weapon ngl
falchion
Yk it's kinda crazy twitch let's this game get shown at all
it has the pointy and square variants
do you specifically like the one with the blunt top or all falchions?
Tower pavise users when I throw my javelin right through their shield landing perfectly between the eyes
But then again half the stuff twitch allows is crazy
shield users when i throw a firm and well-timed left to right attack
Square head is the most consistent
Heavy falcion
I think
the blunt top one feels like it has more oomf behind ti when you swing
Also pro tip if you tap alt mid swing your edge alignment is 10 times better with the falchions
PHAT falcions are very satisfying to use
Cause just tapping alt briefly sets you to stab mode and your character auto aligns the blade horizontal
i won't lie though using a shield makes this game almost as easy as using a polearm
Makes those stupid fucking bounce off cuts where your character basically throws the cut with the flat side of the blade way less common
i have to try that out later
its annoying trying to get the best one though cause the thing comes in like 3 different lengths
I've got the falcions and forearm shield combo down to a science
most entertaining and difficult shield combat
And biting
I want to scratch out Willie’s eyes
Pick boring shield and you get the boring shield fight
whats your guys opinion on the very small knife size falchions that come as secondary weapons in like man at arms and veteran tier?
I’m being dead serious cuz this is probably how any two homeless men would fight realistically
Gae and highly inconsistent
theyre acceptable as a last resort if one of your arms is broken
idk it's lowk all the same
I've seen plenty of untrained fighters way back during school and near pubs scratching is pretty rare tbh
They need to buff head butting for beggars
Hair pulling is probably the most frequent thing people with no experience at all go for
But it’s funny
willy bald 😦
Tear off his scalp
I actually can't remember the last time I saw someone use scratching on purpose
but in man at arms you get full on 1 handed swords as a secondary
i dont know why the dagger is even there tbh
Things said in Halfsword discord casually:
What about kneeing
Dagger just needs custom animation work and it would be very viable
Solid knee to the stomach knocks the wind outta ya
It should switch to a reverse grip automatically when you grapple with one hand the knife is in the other
shield gameplay be like
dude if you could actually switch it to reverse grip the rondel and other daggers would be mad useful
That way you can just stab stab searching for the gaps under the enemies pits and at their neck
Fr
The way real guys do it in mock fights and in period era literature/art
proper reverse grip daggers would be fun
I feel like the rondels should have just the slightest bit of auto aim
only problem is implementing something like that
For stabbing
agreed
in a game where you can control your dude with one mouse and 4 primary movement keys
Context based animations are very easy
And the game already has plenty
Your stab animations are just context baded
Finisher moves
you ever get your weapon caught on the npc's weapon and do some weird spin move to disarm them and send the weapon flying
theres no way i could start recording and hit it at will but ive done it a few times
Are you pressing a key or not
Ez
Just do are you grappling or not
And then activate the grappling animation set
usually when that happens its my weapon that goes flying
I want them to add back the gore feature that lets you explode Willie’s face with blunt objects
And tear out his entrails
they should make helmets flying off more frequent especially for kettle hats
I wonder if they actually read this stuff
Yeah it's both easy and hard to do
do you actually have to finish off the willys in abyss? i always feel like a psychopath bashing their skull over and over until they die for real
Depends on what weapon you got
Threshing flail
Start modeling buckaroo
you dont "Have" to but its satisfying to see them fade into the floor
No just have to dmg them to the point they give up or can't stand up
(pretty please 🙏)
and for some reason the fading is super fucking violent in barons challenge
If they can't stand up the game will just run a timer then remove them if they don't stand up on their own
they spazz out and get spaghettified
yeah i know right?
When they give up or die they despawn into the blood
I stg the baron doesn’t even use the poleaxe he just tramples you
he does halfsword and then gives you a nice big hug
thats supposed to be the players strategy
smh
the hard part is when he starts using the better weapon in his loadout (fuckass longsword)
Hard pivot I bought this Sim racing rig from a guy that conviently failed to mention he was a smoker
so if you manage to stun him enough to make him drop his polearm you best capitalize on it
yeah i always avoid hitting his arms when i can cause he can just drop the poleaxe and pull out his actually useable weapon
God this thing fucking reaks of smoke I've cleaned all like 4 times already
Trip hm with deviously placed godendag
just use the plancon and slap him in the face
im not using that thing outta principle, billhook supremacy
I mean me too but it’s a spike trap on a stick
I have no standards in a fight to the death
one good slap to the face with a billhook and hes on the ground
A fair fight means you made a mistake
one good slap with anything that has weight and everyone in half sword is on da ground
i hate using the plancon it just makes the game too easy
sneak in at his neck with the bardiche and he will take a nap
Paraphrasing MacArthur
did it really come first?
It eventually evolved into the halberd
I think
What’s your favorite era of halberd
15th century swiss halberds
Agreed
Renaissance halberds just look dumb
They have like no structure
Some fencing manual guy even called them out on it once
me when i expect a dramatic graceful katana vs longsword fight but willie keeps trying to half sword (the most effective and realistic tactic to use with a sword against armor)
the billhook is so crazy 😭 i just tried to bat away the plancon and accidentally took off the champions whole arm
especially the one used by the swiss guard. The papal guard
They might look kinda cool but like
thats billhook supremacy for you
the billhook rewards retreating on your part and punishes the enemy for doing the same
How effective is this really
Goedendag users when the billhook has more reach then them
i kind of wish you could adjust halfswording more
you cant even do the thing in the single combat image
well you can but not that high
If you know how to twirl the billhook
You are epik
If you don’t
I’ll post a clip in the morning
wdym by adjusting halfswording more? Like the guy on the right or?
Am I the only one who does this
maybe i just dont usei t enough
I will show you the secret technique
it feels stiff and i dont like it, id rather just swing normally
maybe being stiff is what makes it good
i normally never use the billhook unless im on baron
i just speed blitz the game with militia plancon
this is why i dont like the billhook
if i was using the voulge here he would be dead
using greatsword and dagger is surprisingly good
you can cause a bind/grapple then grab your dirk and shank him
what variant of the voulge do you like more? The longer one or the shorter one with the sharp tip?
What good are all these stupid complex sword techniques for anyways i just swing my axe left and right until i slice an npc's head or lower body off
because you can just swipe the fucker
Blleeeggfhfh
in the time it would take me to thrust into the exposed bits in the armor i couldve just crushed their skull with an overhead and be done
i think the sharp tipe voulge is straight up just worse
step back
literally one inch
like so
So discord mobile is so fucking chopped this shit just shows me a black screen
In other words
BLLEEEGGHHGHCHFHFHGHH
i parried his spear strike then cut his throat with a zwerchau
i butcher him surgically
Dr house ahh
a well structured parry, then a flensing hit to end the fight
that only works for me when the willy is already staggered although it works very well
puts them right on the ground
"Do you have half in your special sword?"
What if guns existed in this era
And here too, it's 16th century europe
werent they like mega ass?
brave stand is genuinely fun
heavy and single shot, but powerful enough to punch through some plate maille
We're well into flintlock muskets by this point
There would be body parts, heads, and upper and lower torsos strewn everywhere if i used a combination of two axes
yes yes we know you like your sharpened bludgeons, now pipe down ye pillow fucker
Remember Portuguese Arquebus one of the first major mass use firearms in Europe was made in the early mid 15 century
father i crave the agonizing noises of blood gurgling from my obliterated opponents
And proto muskets had already been in use for atleast a century prior
there were also native american tribes that used such potent cocktails of drugs to shrug off bullets mid fight
until the drugs wore off, then they died
Cuz they use their ultimate
the matchlock Fusil, of french design and usually ridiculously long
ive got a DND character thats using one, a skeletal cleric named Arthur
is it just me or does anyone love using the axe to chop people's limbs off and setting the dmg to the lowest so they take longer to die
we are all psycho 😭
I do every now and again like to play with the dismemberment mechanics for fun
yea it's really fun
i like using real techniques with this games absurd physics to do some wild shit
for me its when a willy particularly annoys me so i torture them
i swapped to halfswording mid thrust and got thrown 4 feet forth, impaling a guy through his plate
Some of the pain audios are very annoying
I tend to use the axe to bash people's head when they have the helmet so that they have terrible headaches without dying
The impactful noise of my axe cleanly slicing through an abdomen followed by the sounds of choking on your own blood is orgasmic to me
mace kills them too quickky
we all need psychological evaluations
This game is my psychological evaluation
my medal records half sword at like 1 frame per 2 seconds idk why
i do need checked for ADHD
my laptop isn't good
I do have a very satisfying but eery morbid clip where I basically cut off the willy's face from the chin to the nose
it's hard to throw the big axes
try steam recorder
it's even harder to strike the crouch because it keeps dismembering their thigh instead
idk why
I just can't lodge a axe into their crouch
Steam recorder is goated
aight
there is something genuinely thrilling about doing a brave stand with a veteran tier loadout
The default when I set it up was 120 which was very laggy
it feels like getting jumped simulator and it's so fun
especially if you do the knight brave stand where you get to fight against enemies up to man at arms
I had a wild clip of me about to lose while using the axe and suddenly my character did an insane 360 turn right as it was about to collapse and perfectly lodged an axe into the enemy's skull
but medal clipped it in 1 frame per 2 seconds
which sucked
😭
sounds cool
ye, I like lodging things into people
tho armour makes it a pain
I forgot to clip it but I once wacked an enemy's sword into his eye
Which was very cool
oh dang
I smacked it really hard with my Longsword
And back it went right into his face
Very cool
did it lodge?
Yep
lodging stuff into people regardless of armor is what makes it extra fun
rewards precision and commitment
I can only lodge 3 weapons into them max without killing them
there is simply not enough spots when they have so many armour and die so easily
vro I can barely play half sword with the lowest settings and no blood
and it still crashes
or has lag
😭
🥀
i pray for the day my half sword fiends get devices strong enough to play it on full blast
how do people get such cinematic shots?
