Icl what the fuck am i fucking fuck
every time I almost beat the ultimate challenge I get a fatal error
its really annoying
is your blood off
put some pants on him
#updates
Disable blood for the ultimate challenge, it's a known issue at the moment. You can keep your gore setting at whatever, usually.
okay
also, I've been doing very well with dual small shields and just boxing the trash out of the armored people
specifically the smallest one with the designs on it, not the shiny round ones
you have invaded my screenshot
hey I photobombed u
what's up with bros neck 
average newgen casual take
Yall is he title card?!?
I almost beat him and he carved my head off
this should be an emoji
I keep having fatal error after fatal error
how do i report it
<@&1080390104562016306>
try and lower blood and gore though
turn off blood
hey there, there's a couple ways to possibly fix it, tho in the future please reserve mod team pings for emergencies
i meant to say this but you said it better than me
Ok chatgpt
you tempt me to do it more
like they said, if you're having fatal errors during the ultimate challenge specifically, disable blood. Its a known issue.
Otherwise, if it's happening during normal play as well, check your game settings to see if you're running on dx12 or dx11
is there a way to report bugs
we are trying to help you, don't work against us homie
I cant see a way to on the discord
#1047240101152960525
Tho it's a known issue, and there is a likely fix
^^^^^^
Does it not say "feedback-bug-reporting" for you?
no
Weird, try going into the server settings and enabling "show all channels"
Should fix that
ah there we go
Awesome
But ye like said, if it's happening during the ultimate challenge, just disable blood. More details on the issue are in #updates
i love the hammer
Does the split screen mod still work?
how do I turn off blood
to my knowledge it hasn't since last April, but Ive seen people working on similar mods
Press esc and go to game settings, and you will see a button that says "GORE"
just click that
You'll be able to adjust sliders
Alr thx, I spent hours trying to get it to work 😭 💛
🥀 rip
Maybe #modders-guild-hall can help some, but idk
Let me know if it helps 
Alr I'll check it out c:
Thx
No worries! 
can you play multiplayer?
Not currently, but official Splitscreen is in the works 
okay, i swear ive seen videos of people playing split screen tho?
is that just for streamers?
reminds me of mortal kombat fatalities
Its an old mod for the playtest, no idea if it was updated for the demo.
Yeah right here wrt certain weapons spawning behind the player model
Fun fact: The spears can actually do a quick riposte into doing two strikes
this is something the Plancon cannot do
but to do it reliably isn't easy
how do i get passed the quarantined mod HS Enhancer
quarantined how so
on nexus it wont let me download it
if its just the little blue popup then you can press more and itll download anyway
oh weird
Yeah kinda sucks I was told he had a link to github or wtv in the disc
Your antivirus is quarantining it, you need to allow an exception
how would one go about doing that
im looking at windows security but i cant make the exclution without the file i dont think
Thats down to whatever antivirus Youre using, and Google
found the link on github
dude thought he was aragorn lol
chat, rank my spear riposte gaming
i love how every single clip i have seen of a buckler
is just someone chucking the fucking thing
Whats wrong with that ❤️
nothing
i have said earlier
the buckler in this game is a wannabe shield, its better offensive than defensive
It depends, its the only shield with auto parry. So you can pull off defensives with it.
this clip is 90% luck that the AI didn't just swing again when you were on him
like thats the thing with the buckler
it doesn't create any good openings
and when it does
the AI just doesn't do anything to attack back
it just oddly waits
hehehe it is fun
I usually play normally though
Well lemme tell you
It creates openings fine, but its not meant to be used as a shield in the basic sense. Use it as more of a deflector or a parry rather than a solid blocker, or even an extra blunt weapon and you do fine. The moment I hear that ping of their weapon clashing against it is when I attack.
You can make it work, its just theres way more room for failure than there are with other shields.
yeah but all these clips go back to what i was saying before
the AI just oddly stares at you
they don't do anything
and its only for the buckler
which is weird
when you parry with any other weapon, they tend to do something else
not just have a staring contest right after
Almost a sick buckler defense but I just haad to go for the knife
Theyll do that for most any weapon if you hold alt stab mode. It puts them in defensive mode.
Sorry for not cutting the clip lol
strangely
When you fight a polearm
with a polearm
the AI does not give a fuck
they want to box you
it makes Plancon V plancon fights look like fucking fight scenes from some shitty anime
Ive noticed polearm AI are a lot more ballsy than most of the other AI
Like theyre the only AI that really truly rushes you
Go for the candle stick it’s op you can stab with it and it’s super messy which is good for deflecting axe attacks heel often go down after just one stab with the pointy end
i sent this clip a ton
Oh dont I know it, I was specifically going for buckler/knife here tho
Ah
Always and forever a favorite of mine
Meanwhile theres that one spear AI that just stands at a distance and stabs faster than the speed of light
yeah but when i don't get that fight, and just have insane plancon fights like those
Ik you meant the small candleabra, but this clip just too fun.
Love using the small one as a reverse grip dagger and getting his wrist lol
its so fun
Yeah love that thing
Im not gonna lie though, the double click stab speed for spears needs to be slowed the fuck down or something
So fun to get his shoulder and then he just stands there
i honestly don't use stabs that much
i use them whenever i am able to do a punish
or a way to do a combo
Stabs are so easy to mess up
with such a name this is blasphemy
They really not once you get the angles down, you can go on throat stab runs once you nail it.
well, I mostly know where the blade is on my Spears
Using a spear as a purely slashing weapon hurts my soul just give me a billhook at that point or an ikwa lol
its just harder to do
and at times
its better to do
Halfswording spears up close for sure is effective, but slashing from a distance negates the whole point of spears being having a reach advantage and powerful stabs as to slash you have to get closer than you really should. Its bound to fail against dedicated slashing weapons like longswords or blades with shields.
like bruh, i once used the Plancon as a sword
Yeah but thats not just a spear, it has a longer blade along with spikes on the shaft as well so its designed to be used up close too.
also: there is hema moves that involves slashing with a spear
I too enjoy the baseball bat grip
my main issue is with spears in this game
Yes but that doesnt change the fact the spear is designed as a stabbing weapon. Its like, yeah we can technically stab with some of the pointy falchions, but should we really though? Some situations call for it, but theres a inherent thought behind the weapon being intended for stabbing at a distance. As spears become basically useless once youre past the point.
I don't think the people who designed swords expected the people to hold the sword backwards or by the blade
it doesn't matter what its designed for
it matters how people use it
How are you so accurate
Speaking in irl terms if youre a spearman and someone gets control of your shaft, you're a deadman because your weapon is gone. Which is why swordsmen were known for being able to beat spears once they got in close.
i mean shit
“Gets control of your shaft “
almost every single spear move in hema, is almost just one handed swings
which isn't possible in halfsword
which idk why
why cant we just one hand swing a polearm?????????
I was just about to say but not the kind of slashing we see in halfsword haha. Thats kind of what im saying. You can slash with the spear if youre still maintaining "stabbing" distance, but since halfsword swinging with spears does it more like a bat its inconvenient.
actually. now that i think about it
the spear stances are technically wrong
those are more halberd stances
Yes too wide and he braces it like its a super top heavy weapon which messes up the angles. I think we should be able to slash like this when it comes to spears. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-1yLcA31mPk

Spear - The longer a weapon is, the more dangerous it becomes. Even a light wooden simulator could generate deadly force. Sparring with these weapons, there are added rules for safety. A general reduction in speed. No cuts above 45 degrees...
i did do polearm training
but it was for mostly like
Japanese stuff
Naginata spears
which is completely different realm
Oh yeah asian cultures is more focused on polearms that are designed to slash. Kind of like europes bardiches.
it was stabbing and slicing
but instead of using like
one hand
we use two
and the forms we were taught
were both offensive and defensive
Wille is as strong as 3 year old
So he couldnt lift it
Its a lot easier in first person for me, but basically with enough practice in stabbing. You figure out "If my weapon starts the stab from here, itll end up there." I used to practice on the training dummy a lot.
wanna know something funny doe, in the spear training i did
we were given a training staff that matched our height
me being 6ft, gave me basically a fucking LOG
I alsways use first person but sometimes the stabbing is just super floppy because Willie is dumb
Like going at an angle for no reason
I’ve discovered that if I just double click super fast it will do a straight stab instead of trying to mess with alt
Itll always kind of go out at an angle because of elbows. Willie isnt good at linear stabs unless you have a shield to push against or its an offhand ive noticed. Like this. But yes! Alt stabs are more handy for distant stabs. But in First person, double click stabs are a lot more accurate since usually your stab goes directly where the center of your screen is or at a slight angle from it.
Lol that also sounds like a crazy disadvantage for opponents but I get it because using a tool thats designed for people smaller than you is probably more debilitating
Cleann
I love black and white.
fighting with a missing arm
that was a swing btw
i didn't even stab or double click
I'm so aura farming.
You can get those occasionally, id still call it a thrust due to the way the weapon moves. Kind of like this, no double click stab or alt mode here. But the way the weapon moved and he moved into it ended up with it being a thrust.
for a spear its more annoying to pull off
since it requires mostly luck and timing
with a plancon, its hell
you need to quickly move down then up
fast enough to where it does a stab
you can see that i did it twice in that clip of me fighting that Plancon Willie
Its a lot easier with swords, a good flick with the right timing will get it done.
It came out on its' own.
you and your slam sword down elden ring boss intimidation tactics.
practicing for multiplayer, if it ever gets here
i am still confused how the guy in white died
One of them spikes tagged his throat at like 3-4 seconds in when you pushed him aside "gently" I think
this is also that super rare clip of me pulling off a successful bash
with the butt of the polearm
that shit is too unreliable and risk to pull off
so at times when i do it, its mostly just a accident
The worlds most flamboyant knights!
mirror polish maxing
new challenge, you have to disarm willie of his main weapon and his backup weapon, and then beat him tier 8
unrelated
You can do it with a hammer
Just give light bonks until they drop everything
Halfsword but it came out in 1992
technically not disarming, thats just blunt force trauma until their hands dont work
you could also argue removing his arms is disarming him
my dad used to tell me stories of half sword for the snes
we were born in the wrong generation 🥀 🥀
whos gonna get the first outhouse door execution
i cant get past the stupid guy on peasant 😭
the axe metalhead?
that guy yeah
rush in, and once you rush in do everything to not let his skin leave your skin
it sounds freaky but he physically cant put the blade to your body if you do
i beat him bare handed this way several times
alr thx👍
oh one last thing, if his axehead is downwards by your legs thats basically the most risky position to be in, as you'll constantly be trying to walk forward while hes trying to pull the axe back up it doesnt end well lmao
half sword but it's a silent film
how the hell are people making items flys and using telekinesis
like ive checked everywhere
what
Hey I’m curious, but do the Devs have any plans on multiplayer? (Idk if there is a channel or thing that tells me where to put this or if it’s not a possibility for it
its not a priority rn but they will consider it eventually
it will be very, very hard to implement well
Ok thank you!
ive finally figured out a very crude flying kick
i jumped maybe half a foot and broke a guys neck
is it possible to disable auto parrying
Omg u su bad
no
non disableable feature that objectively makes the game more restrictive
gto
gtfo!!!
eh its not that bad
I've never claimed to be good
i just dont understand why you cant turn it off
i feel like its a reasonable request
well now im confused
it knocks you out of the more active stances and i feel like the small movements it does by itself mess with me
Good
honestly with how many people have complained about it it might be a good idea to add that as an option
seems like other people also dislike it
They will send you a bomb
hopefully they know then
let them bro my neighbor gets so many packages hopefully shell get exploded
cant hurt to put it in the feedback anyway
Sending ied to people who suggest mp
tbf it is in the faq
warhammer mf was off his game
Warhammer mid
Nuh uh
yuh uh
ehhhhh
Warhammer will remain mid
warhammer is decent, poleaxe is better
poleaxe counts as both a polearm and an axe so
Ig
But I wouldn't call it the best polearm
At all
The Plancon will remain the best for likely forever
Got this 'theory' from reddit 👀
Still doubt those will be the spikes
Those are barricades
They were likely going to be used as a hazard for the wall instead of the gate, and they decided to just move it under the map
They may be remodeled. But those are sharp looking barricades
the torture stick you mean?
poleaxe is definitely better
They were made for anti-cav
They tend to be that sharp
I would love to hear the argument here
wdym
How is it Poleaxe > Plancon?
Swords are wayy too good at blunt damage
It's accurate
longer reach
higher damage, both sharp and blunt
harder to deflect
some have a sharp point at the bottom end, so half sword grip is very useful
less cumbersome to swing
if it doesnt cut then it bludgeons
Speaking of which I hope we get horses and mounted duels and jousting at some point in the game's development
Uhhh everything you just said isn't true.
The plancon has a lot more reach.
The Plancon is faster, and does more damage and can one shot armored enemies.
The plancon can bash and stab, and the spike at the end is incredibly long
Well I've never tested it but I doubt the blade would be that damaging. Flip it into mordhau however and that's a different story
So I download this trainer mod and there is NO FUCKIN TUTORIAL ON HOW TO USE IT
Do you know what the Plancon is?
?
Not you
War vet Willie has seen things unfathomable.
he's watching my greatsword coming at his head at great speed
ykw. honestly fair enough
i will maintain poleaxe having better half sword grip capabilities though
my greatsword > any weapon
nuh uh
Any tips for parrying with poleaxes?
practice
i dont have anything in particular beyond that
guys
50/50
how to try beta a ?
request playtest on steam storepage
On the nexus page, all the binds are listed
Jarvis, enhance
Just demo now but yes
You shouldn't need to request anymore afaik
But its been a while 💀
I am in your walls with my plancon, ignore the glitching noises. 
gmod ragdoll noises
Idk why but that would be terrifying
Imagine trying to sleep, and it's dark in your room
And you just see a body rapidly shaking halfway in the wall
lovely
where is the new places
Is he dead
ur right
ts but a scratch
cutting up willie fungus
i was at the last level and my game crashed bro i swear m gonna break my monitor
R.I.Plançon
Thank god for a chestplate amiright

dont do that !
that was clean
Hey yall I gotta question. Can you break peoples knees w a kick? I was doing fist fight and did a kick and the npcs leg knee and down started bending in weird ways
YES
i wonder what that means
so it is like intentional?
Yes
Why does willie have no brain?
Willie is a fungus
would it be too gory
Delicious partial head beheading.
beautiful
how did you get that sword at that teir
Mods probably
I love headshots.
ovrdth loader and halfsword enhancer along with the weapon mod/pack
alr bet
POV: Enemy willie hits you with a mace
i decided to play the Pilgrim's Chorus from Tannhauser while playing the game, and it makes combat while injured a little more gripping
this could also just be the wagner experience
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8kATq4E/ how does he do this???
its good
tis a weapon of the gods
is it better than the poleaxe tho
Fnaf purple guy pov: frr
trying to beat gauntlet mode really giving anger issue
dude i died at
knight final boss
getting good false edge cuts is there a way?
what false edge
the side that usually faces you. there's some cool moves I see people do with real swords on youtube
Goated
Because i seem to enjoy replacing limbs way too much, it seems that pitchfork legs is the most successful surgery i can do in this game
literally me trying to beat gauntlet mode

can smbdy help me learn how to suplex
i've stopped giving the AI Willies mercy
enough is enough
they've chopped my head off more times than i can count when i yielded
they wouldn't let me live, so i won't anymore
What happened to my willy
what makes you better than them is that you chose to let them live, even when they may not
now, you are left with nothing but similarities
don't care
peak response
Is there ever going to be multiplayer for this game
We ALL crackin willie🤣 ✌️ ✌️
On this guys soul we all cracking willie
Imagine if they kissed rn
Saints Row 2 was so good
Willie lost his willy in a hunting accident
Don't quote me on that
What is the weirdest stuff y'all have experienced in the abyss?
me getting banged by two guys
gng what did i do😭🙏
does anyone know how to grab the ankle instead of the knee
god I wish this were true in Half-sword
i wanna grapple but in the demo it's so hard
bro was disqualified 💀
disqualified for grappling in an MMA fight 😭
rate the takedown from 1 to 10
other than the disqualification
- coulda dropped him on his head
i agree, i have done that before and one time i had willy on his head and his neck snapped
ik i couldve used the punch mechanic to slam him onto the ground
im just kinda new to this game
hey so how many of you have unlocked the baron rank?
gimme like 20 minutes to find a video rq
T-T
i started like before yesterday
btw is it easier in the play test, cuz from what ive seen it might be
yeah it is. willie is alot more "grounded" on the demo
jeez finally. here it is
how? playtest or demo?
playtest
oh ok so the version where willy is lighter
I KNEW IT
im able to use the fact that willy is balanced against him, i just lift him up then when he starts to fall i just punch to the left a slight bit then punch very hard to the right while grabbing, that's how i got like 8 or 10 piledrivers which i forgot to record
bruise em up
did they nerf the round house kicks too?
in playtest spinkicsk are WAYYY too vulnerable to being knocked over
they buffed it though
bro round house kicks werent even as overpowered
spinkicks are still highly effective luckily. not as volatile though
so you're telling me i couldve broken willy's leg in one kick
they're pretty chill when your opponent is stunned
and while it may not be that good in half sword, irl that knife is arguably more dangerous than a sword
Hi
Yeah.. I have a clip of that too…
Clip hunting sucks ;-;
how so?
playtest willie NEVER lets go once he has a hold of you
oh ok
good ol grippy playtest
wait
im talking about grappling
almost got a slam
bro willy got so lucky
Try turning NPC damage up a bit more and turning up blood
why?
Willie will take make environmental damage aswell
And blood will make the impact explosive
it's gonna stay the same for me and willy or im gonna be at a disadvantage
im keeping it that way id rather have the settings like that
did the slam kinda look cool tho?
Yeh
obliterating his legs
idk why tho but it kinda reminds me of belal muhammed vs leon edwards
that was the only good takedown in that fight
obliterating his face
that's nice
dead chat
unfortunately its gonna be like that for a few months
holy forkballs
why tho
did the chat used to be alive a few months ago
game doesnt have enough content to keep people intrigued. update comes out. big streamers start streaming the game again. chat becomes full of rage baiting ipad kids. moderators get overloaded with work. ipad kids leave. true fans squeeze the last bit of fun they can out of the update. then the chat dies down. rinse and repeat
wait so did i miss one of the updates
how long ago was that

oh ok
april 1st
ofc one of the most fun games ive played has a dead discord server
its also morning for most people including me
most people here have lives to live in the morning. just wait a few hours im sure it will get lively again
Im coming to final boss lets see
speak for yourself on the first sentence
nah im gonna speak on what ive seen
bro the grappling guild is either always dead or it's not about grappling
well dont speak for me
at what point did i speak for you?? 💀
idk i like arguing
this isn't a game, it's a playtest
i guess not all of the rage baiting ipad kids have left yet
what where
casual vultures when they make life difficult for a few months
then leave the core fanbase alone
finally a good slam
wait so does this game have a small fanbase? except the ipad kids
i'd say the fanbase is quite large
nice
stomped him out too T-T
i wish i could grabble
what do you rate it from 1 to 10
lemme rewatch
btw idk how to get playtest so i just did it on the demo
nice parrying
like 8 or 9
you can't get the playtest anymore
a little excessive scrambling tho
it's been merged with the demo
true lol
playtest is over. you're playing the merged demo
yep im playing the demo
this was the demo before the merge ❤️
btw the headbutt was accidental but it helped alot
Holy shirt 😳 😳 🤣
i miss exploding heads and pulling out intestines
if only i got the game during the demo
the early demo
it would be cool if they did have a playtest u could download somewhere to still play it
i kept my playtest version for a while because it was still launchable through the files
but then i get used to playing the merged demo
Did anybody finished the ultimate challenge
yeh. many times
bruh
im gonna start clip farming again
10 seconds into the fight and ive already got a good clip
am i posting too many clips
guys what should i do to counter willy if he does the
mods
not everyone mods tho
their loss
i like war crimes in halfsword
dont we all
this was brutal as shit
he passed the aw test? why are they sorry to inform you that?
The One-armed Swordsman
You unlock the Baron in freeplay
its 9 am man
let people wake up
alr man i didnt know it was 9 am it wasnt 9 am for me
the only proper timezone is my timezone
but yeah lowkey #general-catfish-🐱🐟 is usually more active
nah this chat usually is just always kinda dead compared to other popular games
that means less work for me 
Its always excessively poppin when an update drops and then dies off for a while
Parabolicccc
it be like that sometime
please keep chat alive whiel i find an image to post
Got u chrome
i just grabbed willy by the willy and he started spinning wth
i stabbed a guy and he had recoil
foil (the sword)
i got flung back halfway across the arena and all my limbs were broken
kinetic blast
here it is on a table
this one of my favorite clips..
table
tabl
i put bro in my inventory
who invited Socrates what the helly 
me
open them dms
Me
it was over before he even knew it
I broke both arms on my opponent with kicks😭
did i overreact? he called me a crotch sniffer for trying to grapple btw
I fucking hat the militia boss in the abyss bro
Flick kicks are way to powerful
He was non stop running from me then FLICKING his sword at me when i had a SHORTSWORD dawg KNEW what he was doing why was he running when he outranged me 2 to 1 😭
Bucklers used to be so powerful in old abyss dude it was popping heads everywhere
which button do you dodge
Shift + WASD
Its not a dramatic dodge or anything
Just a small but quick movment
some guy just did a dash thinng
look
Thats the dash function on the Half Sword Enhancer mod
how can i play that
bro what the hell kind of takedown defense is that, how did that even happen
anyone have any tips on grappling?
He didnt do anything weird wym just stepped back
idk
Thats some tasty defense btw
woah very bold accusation
my brother with a g15 8 series for pfp
doing that stuff has me super tense because one misread feint could slice me in half
ALWAYS throw weapons!!!!!
You can see the tension lol, moving that slowly and calmly with accuracy, for a prolonged period. Sheeeesh thru gritted teeth
maybe
🙋
once you're styling on the opponent you gotta commit to the bit
realistically first 3 swings would've had him dead
but i had to farm those parries once i realized this guy was actually one of the fun/challenging ai
the dudes who love to feint and throw full forced swings
Is there an application
what
For play test
Never mind
make a google app for playtest 🔥
grappling is so trash it's better to just punch, it's impossible to grab the back of the leg, and you're gonna get punched if you grab the legs
lego
you have been accepted to playtest
do you know how to download
ovrdth selector mods
is there any way to get some sort of crosshair to aim better?
nope
war crime
this game is so god damn hard bro
I just be swinging my shit
I hold and go crazy with my mouse
this was in playtest a couple of months ago
will the game come out in 2025?
I’ll figure it out, thank you!
When does the play test end
when i end it
early access in Q4 of 2025
Q4?
quarter
oke how much will it be
dont know
hello sire, thy willy has arrived here, i hope you dont mind the damage on the packaging
do we known around what price it would be
communicate to my leader if you need a replacement
no
oke thanks
Don't gotta be that way brother lower your sensitivity and find the finesse within you
20-30 usd, likely closer to 20.
There was a poll a while ago
This is part of why it’s so hard for you lol
You can trivialize the game if you just whiff punish, willies are naturally dumb asf
I just don’t know how to like stab or axe from above like all I can do is swing the weapon from left or right never up or down or straight how do you stab straight
To stab, you have to hold alt and pull back, then when you see it line up push foward full send
When stabbing with alt (with swords), pull your weapon in closer to your body as opposed to extending your elbow out. It's much more accurate and stable.
Alternatively If it's a two handed weapon it is recommended to hold right click first, then drag your mouse to aim the weapon. Then from there double click and hold left mouse (you can try alt a little as well but clicking is more stable)
This is a much more stable and accurate stabbing pose, and a proper halfsword thrusting stance.
To practice your aiming, there's two different ways you can keep your FOV.
Third Person- with Low FOV, so you get a closer view.
or alternatively;
First Person- with High FOV, so you get a wide view of your weapon and it's positioning.
-# note, this works best for polearms or two handed swords
[Watch This Clip to see it in action!](#game-footage-🎮🎥 message)
Up down is tricky at first, try to do full arcs with the mouse, keep your wrist straight and only move your arm irl
Alt? What does alt do
Enters stabbing mode
oh. That explains why I can’t stab
i think 20-25 is a fair price
Yes it does lol
You saw the stab stance last second there?
gawd damn
Pulls it back and to the side
I’m cooked if they release multiplayer
Id pay 40 but thats just bc im obsessed and want the devs to get their bag
Maybe one day far far from now lol
Youll be goated by then
i personally wouldnt, its not that i dont think they deserve it but im just so tired of overpriced games when most people can barely afford to live
I’d rather pay $20 obviously, who wants to pay more for something lol. But I don’t think $40 is overpriced, and you shouldn’t be buying games if you can barely afford to live. Think priorities are outta wack in that case
Yeah, you can just tell this is a passion project. Its 12 people making the game. They never expected it to blow up like this.
I'd pay 40 but that doesn't mean it should be priced as such
yea
Imma just buy copies for my friends bc everyone needs some half sword
Its worth 40 but Pierre said it
i hope its 20 and not 40
i grinded up to 20 bucks by selling steam cards
businessman
yea man
i got 600 active listings on the steam market rn
They'll make more money pricing it 20
If you can’t afford a 40$ game you got bigger problems than a video game, not that I disagree with you 40 is a bit much but seeing as it’s an indie game it’s not entirely unfair, 20-30 is better tho
Sorry if this came out rude
Just wish they had a mf kofi or something lol
i mean if you are struggling financially then 40 dollars can at times be a life saver
nah nah dont worry i get what you are saying :)
Piracy is always an option ;) ;) jk jk lol
Yes but shouldn’t your energy go towards stabilizing your financial situation before putting money in video games
20 is a good number.
I've never seen someone do that, damn.
sure but everyone needs some sort of entertainment aswell
and you could also be saving up money and so when a game is 40$ its like " oh dang that sucks cant get that, i need to save up"
which is by no means the games fault dont get me wrong but its crazy how much game prices have gone up
but yeah i see your point
hello uncle
I think it should fuel your motivation to get bread but you could buy it when you’re broke I guess
thats fair
wish i had such a mentality lmao
i usually have very little motivation in general
I take option C: 🏴☠️
jk jk except for Ubisoft games they deserve it
i was gonna leave this channel on read until I saw my gang, hello
how are you doing
fair
were you a gladiator in a past life
nah he worked on an oil rig
hello m00
i know because m00 is my uncle
Love m00
nice to meet you m00
murder willie until I die 
c334 weapon pack video when
Does anyone know if the devs will add houndskull helmet or not?
Or its from a different time
?
No piracy talk! Especially in a discord server including the devs of said game
only kidding my good sir
You can get the whole server banned like this iirc cuz discord tos
Not sure tho
Maybe only yourself
wouldnt be the first time lol
2 dollars is good
yes
last clip before I begin the harvest once more.
it is not
also warstaff a is my fav weapon for the record
at militia tier it could both be a weapon of unparalleled brutality
Real question tho bc this circumstsnce floats around on here and reddit, is it technically piracy to have saved a zip of the previous versions and distributed them despite them being free and distributed for free 😳😳😳
its a weapon of hospital bills
gn chat
Gn chrome glad yer back
There’s nothing we can do about what you do privately behind closed doors, but uploading old builds, or distributing them would not be allowed
Solid answer thanks moai, I've just seen talk or people asking yanno, so wanted something non-speculative
pirate bay.
I don't think pirate bay is even relevant anymore. It should really be called virus bay tbh
lol I hope there's like...achievements or challenges in the early access/full release.
I want to have a reason to kill the enemy with his own weapon.
A free demo being on Steam does not mean the user has rights to redistribute game files nor do they own that software, this is a violation of Steam TOS. Free access does not imply free ownership.
Technically speaking you don't own ANY game you purchase or acquire through Steam, free or not.
I agree and was exactly why I was asking
You have a license to run the game locally.
Or at least why I made sure to specify that
Shhh don't let the SKG movement hear you!
The only site I can think of where you actually own the game, not a license, is GOG.
lol. Yeah sure let them try to boycott Steam.
I swear man, political/law/action groups tear themselves apart by going after the big guys like Steam whenever they do shit like that.
Can you even boot a game if its been removed from steam
Yes.
Willie is pondering why he brought a knife, to a sword battle
I have multiple games that no longer have public steam pages.
But anyways, I understand the sentiment when people get mad at Steam or whatever, competition breeds innovation blah blah blah.
But things don't usually get better when the big guy takes a hit.
Interesting. I assumed there was like, a key or the game still needed steam in some capacity despite having their own .exe.
But ion know how all that works, exactly why I asked
The small guys (Epic Games, Battle.net, Xbox, GOG. GMG) would just swarm like sharks if Steam took an actual damaging blow.
I never Uninstalled the playtest so I still get to enjoy those stiff physics, but I was nervous what would happen if it wasnt listed on steam
Yeah don't uninstall if you want to keep playing it.
That wasn't just unlisted on Steam, but removed as well.
So it will be removed from your library on deletion.
Ahh so I only see it in my library bc its installed still i see
i still have totally accurate zombielator from 2017
Don't share the playtest though.
There's actually a pretty significant negative impact when it gets shared around.
It's a playtest version that no longer shows what the game is like.
It's not a good representation of the final product.
100%
I just think its neat as an enthusiast to be able to experience the development stages still.
Like how ill go and play the itch version from time to time
bro
i am so done with the type of shit i see 😭
i so badly want to just master blender
and make historically accurate medieval armor
all grapplers are crotch sniffers
ok darth maul
m00 how do you use the double blunt from your pack.
i still think grapplers suck and grappling sucks too
Why is the half sword demo delisted on steam?
You're an attention seeking person with negative aura, I'm not conversing with you.
Anyways, m00, it's so fucking short
damn wtf did he do
range is cool, but speed and defence is cooler
nevermind carry on
i dont have anything against grapplers i think grappling is cool im just frustrated that i cant get a good takedown and that im not good at grappling
that I can help with, start with that next time
You have 7 results in the server for sending messages with the word "crotch sniffer" in it.
Brother get some help.
could be more
lmao wth
So....next goal is to start creating music with the sword?
also just to make sure you know, im calling grapplers crotch sniffers
sounds fun actually
i think ive said crotch sniffer like 10 times by now
not enough
bro i think im gonna stop saying crotch sniffer
billions must grapple
a lil duel for company
LMFAO
This will always be your top (the server top really) grappling clip unless you can manage to like...idk...actually fucking suplex someone.
UNDERTAKER
Somehow manage to grab them and make yourself fall backwards slamming their head onto the ground.
Yall have any insider info on when the EA releases? Can’t wait
TOMMORROW
I am the last willie bender...
Cap
jesus christ it was like a fucked up dance routine.

Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me about the bare-knuckle mode in Half Sword? I couldn’t find an article that suited me, so I decided to write here. I really enjoy this mode and would like to know if it’s possible to set up bare-knuckle fights with 3 vs 3 or 1 vs multiple opponents?
is it true that the mod called HS enhancer is malware?
is nexus considered dodgy
no don't think
i love longsword deuling
i got it off nexus, works like a charm
just kinda freaked out after my malwarebytes flagged it as malware, seen a lot of comments on the mod page itself saying its a trojan as well
malwarebytes flags every .exe that isnt from steam as malware
i have an associates degree in cybersec, hse is good
Thanks to the devs of this game for making me feel fun for games after a long time, I really find joy in the little things in life and booting half sword has made my like that bit more tolerable, I don't know if I will live to see the full release but it has been a good joy anyways, thank you again and I wish you all the best. ❤️
why is it whenever i parry a willie, they don't give a shit. but whenever i see a clip of a willie being parried the Willie just stares into their soul
skill issue
like what is that
you havent brutalized enough bills to spread your name
how tf do i get the play test
search half sword on steam and the thing that comes up is the play test. its free
to be specific the tech demo is the only version of the game thats released right now
the playtest is on halfsword.com
does the demo have all modes
the old old version
gauntlet and free mode
demo is the full game currently as it is
early access
hence the "playtest"
alr bet ty
that was dancing, not brutalization
you need to strike them down, sever their limbs, cause chaos and death
also a lot of bleed kills, strike at the throat
I literally cannot do that with the weapons I main 💔
the spear can slash
the goedendag can slash, just gotta do it right
ive slashed people with the blunt end of a candlestick
then they'll never show fear when you parry them
max gore makes me feel like im good at something when i lop a bills leg off and cut his throat
You can just do that in gruesome
Gruesome supremacy
The gore is sort of buns due to it being purely based around chance
i like the one above gruesome
Idk what they were thinking with that
i like the feeling of it
