[mental kelp]

slow ass gameplay of willie trying to get any sorta hit in

[fiery axle]

high tier gameplay is just
"EGGARD"
tap on head with stick, does 0.01 damage
shuffle around awkwardly, almost pass out
"ROUNDSTREL" (or whatever it is)
head tap again

[shell bronze]

when they make these willies more intelligent it will really separate the sheeps from GOATs

[lapis marsh]

i dont mind armor gameplay but i see your point

[past mirage]

How do you stop the ultimate challenge from crashing?

[fiery axle]

i dont have baron

you have to do gauntlet for baron

[tough hollow]

turn off blood

[lapis marsh]

turn off blood

[lapis marsh]

ohhh now i remember, they did change it

mb mb

[tough hollow]

what

[mental kelp]

thing is that when they make him better, they'll be positively making me better with the new swing mechanics and wrist strength, etc.

[lapis marsh]

i just beat the gauntlet before they changed it

[tough hollow]

was it not always like that?

[fiery axle]

just knocked a willie on the ground and he said "FUCK." and then died

[lapis marsh]

no you used to only unlock each tier through reaching it in gauntlet

now you have all tiers unlocked except baron

[shell bronze]

high tier gameplay be like

[shell bronze]

the only correct mentality

if they get better i get better

[sand herald]

I feel I'm gonna leave skid marks on my mouse pad if I do these too often

[fiery axle]

idk what hes called but i love him so much

[lapis marsh]

literally wtf happened

[lapis marsh]

falchion

[past mirage]

just blood?

Or also gore

[lapis marsh]

gore as well just to be safe

[past mirage]

ok

[fiery axle]

yea thats it

[tender quest]

I might be able to counter that

[sand herald]

[shell bronze]

the lion does not concern itself with polearm defense

[tough hollow]

i wonder how the willy saw this happen

[shell bronze]

bullshit like this is exactly why you're on hs7

[autumn notch]

anime ass move

[past mirage]

I just stepped on a knife and my leg got cut off😭

[tender quest]

be awesome if in EA willie picks up techniques from other players and air drops them into your game randomly

[tough hollow]

that and the fact that if an axe touches you in the farmer teir you get split in half

[lapis marsh]

yeah axes are mega overtuned

[autumn notch]

Willie the grappler might be OP

[shell bronze]

willie gives you the m00 disarm treatment then throws you across the fence

[past mirage]

mfw willie pulls a 360 kick flip and turns my neck 180 degrees with a mace

[mental kelp]

abnemen

[tender quest]

or you're fighting a greatsword willie and then he just pauses and then quadruple bonks you

[small wing]

underated sword

[shell bronze]

chops your hand off perfectly with the greatsword beforehand

[fiery axle]

people dont like it?

[tough hollow]

willy whips his leg at mach 65 and makes your head spin off your torso

[fiery axle]

it makes everything except the stick of many stabs easy to fight

[small wing]

idk

[small wing]

willie doesnt have a brain give him a moment

[tender quest]

or he does that fizzlepop forward leap and stabs you right through the neck

[lapis marsh]

its not underrated

its a goated sword

[tough hollow]

cant wait for a willy to perfectly launch an axe into my forehead

[small wing]

in my eyes

nobody gaf about it

[sand herald]

that would be fantastic

[tender quest]

i have alot of trust in the armour physics lmao

[sand herald]

i'd love to be having a normal fight in one match then get speed blitzed in the next

[autumn notch]

I would, I've only been bs'd by the armor physics only a few times

it's pretty good imo

[mental kelp]

abschneiden

[tough hollow]

ive been screwed over way too many times

[shell bronze]

wth you doing in man at arms

all geared up

[tough hollow]

the guy will slide his blade over my shoulder and ill be sliced in half

[tender quest]

getting some weapon variety

[autumn notch]

yeah that's definitely the trend I see, there's nothing to stop the blade once it's already lodged in a part of willie

it acts like the chest plate isn't there when that happens

[vital perch]

chat i need your help:

i need the name of the classic violin song , it went with a long stroke , 2 short strokes and 2 short strokes again

[vital perch]

[shell bronze]

me when the english speaking channel is taken up by foreign people speaking foreign languages for no reason

we got international accommodations

[scenic crest]

I've seen a mistake that makes you able to fight a beggar being a superior class, can you still do that?

[lapis marsh]

those are like the same thing

[lapis marsh]

ovrdth's loadout selector

its a mod

[vital perch]

one's just better than the other

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[autumn notch]

use Ovrdeath's mod or select a class in free mode and then restart and then go back to free mode and play the game without selecting a class

[small wing]

I HATE FOREIGN LANGUAGES

[vital perch]

not telling you which one tho

[small wing]

👿⚡

[scenic crest]

thanks bro

[vital perch]

i love the thrust at the end , looked like a for honor execution

[tender quest]

[past mirage]

One is a lot longer

[lapis marsh]

do you mean the voulge

[past mirage]

oh yeah

that thing

What would y'all choose to fight the ultimate challenge?

[vital perch]

so tell me , when did they add finishers to half sword?

[vital perch]

because gold 🤑

[tough hollow]

noo bruh

[autumn notch]

halberd or billhook, sometimes plancion

[median ridge]

i swear if this turns into one of those games where it js never comes out like carlson

[scenic crest]

how can i restart? xd

[tough hollow]

im not fighting 3 fully armored knights while i have a spear a chestplate and a bucket on my head

[autumn notch]

alt+F4

[shell bronze]

it might actually never come out from how much people be tweaking about it

[median ridge]

bro

[lapis marsh]

just go back to the main menu

[scenic crest]

really? xd you'r not trolling me? xd

[median ridge]

ive been playing since it realesed and this is my first time back on in months

[shell bronze]

the more FUD we have the less probability we have of early access coming out

[autumn notch]

no just pick a class , go in and then close the game

[lapis marsh]

btw the actual method is to select the tier you want to fight on freemode, then use ovrdth's selector to select the loadout you want to play, then press play demo

[shell bronze]

which is to say that people gotta stop asking the obvious

[autumn notch]

then when you come back don't select a class and just press play while on free mode

[shell bronze]

#faq

[median ridge]

any mod reccomendations thats not a trojan

[scenic crest]

pppk thanks bro

[brave basalt]

I can try to help u in Vc lol

[median ridge]

yh ik im js saying i dont get how ppl play in it

[shell bronze]

disarm

[autumn notch]

ah

[tough hollow]

how do you parry so well

usuallywhen i try their sword is to heavy and they just slice through me anyway

[lapis marsh]

the key is to not 'block' the sword but instead hit it off course

[tough hollow]

illtrythat

[shell bronze]

pure luck actually

[tough hollow]

oho k

[mental kelp]

hollywood typa going for their sword

[thorn haven]

[azure mirage]

Good evening everyone

[shell bronze]

hi

[lapis marsh]

try to catch them on the wood and then use the axe's hook shape to hook it out the way

[thorn haven]

[azure mirage]

How are you?

[tough hollow]

tail guard is lowk op

[azure mirage]

[mental kelp]

willie did an abschneiden on me but did not follow with chasing

but props to him for that

[shell bronze]

what total domination looks like

[median ridge]

someone tell me to use orvdths

[autumn notch]

use orvdths

[median ridge]

this guy

[autumn notch]

?

[median ridge]

like instructions

[autumn notch]

ohh sure so basically you download the program, and any loadout you want you put into the "pooled saves" folder
and ten you boot up the game and go to freeplay then choose your tier, use the program and then choose your loadout that you want to use and then press play

[shell bronze]

pro tip: if you hear the windows sound then it's working. join a round and you will see your chosen loadout

[median ridge]

thanks man

[autumn notch]

you can change loadouts whenever you want in-between fights by selecting another

[past mirage]

Do you get anything for completing the ultimate challenge?

[median ridge]

the gold gut

guy

[shell bronze]

the final tier in freemode

that's it

[soft osprey]

Bragging rights

[median ridge]

its not even that good

[soft osprey]

The knowledge Youre better than losers who can’t get there

[lethal ingot]

And if you use Half Sword Enhancer and spawn in weapons and armor then hit save load out (T by default, iirc) you can then save that custom load out into ovrdth as well.

[autumn notch]

LOL

[autumn notch]

this fr

[shell bronze]

this in itself is more important than anything else

[autumn notch]

makes experimenting with stuff really easy

[shell bronze]

because elitism is good

[soft osprey]

It should drive your entire existence really

[shell bronze]

this is factual and should be taken as such

[median ridge]

i got told halfsword enhancer is a trojan is this true ?

[soft osprey]

No

[median ridge]

bet

[soft osprey]

False positive if anything

[autumn notch]

if you can't make it it means that you are a failure in all things and it's over for you

[soft osprey]

This is objectively true

[shell bronze]

if you call yourself a player of video games (gamer one can say) it should be the bare minimum for you

[autumn notch]

smiling Willie is freaky

[mental kelp]

this is why everyone has to buy my half sword course

34.99

[soft osprey]

How about shushing willie

[lethal ingot]

Also means you can do some real goofy stuff like dual wielding loadouts, having a scythe, taking a greatsword with lower armor, etc.

[shell bronze]

lmao @ the fodder

[autumn notch]

not a sight anyone wants to see

[soft osprey]

I forgot I have one of his smile and it’s adorable.

[autumn notch]

willie is going to touch you

[autumn notch]

this one is better fr

[lethal ingot]

Dual wielding is genuinely fun and I'm shocked the game doesn't include any at all in the rotation.

[autumn notch]

it like half generated a police badge in the 2nd one

[shell bronze]

because it is impractical and no one in their right mind would be doing that

[soft osprey]

Halfswords going for realism as much as they can. The only realistic argument you could make is a sword and dagger but theres not many(if any, im not a huge nerd not 110%) examples of duel wielding irl

[shell bronze]

sword and dagger is the only reasonable dual wielding

[median ridge]

btw that pool folder or wtv its called for adding loadout is not in my ordvths thingy wingy

oh yh

I'd love to master fence fu

[round stone]

I tossed my sword to the side, and focking cut myself in half

[warped apex]

I'm becoming an expert at catching my weapons

[crisp thorn]

I only cant get there because when i make it to the 4 armored dudes my game crashes

[autumn notch]

Willie got the hammer fist

[autumn notch]

do you have blood turned off completely

[crisp thorn]

No but it isnt turned all the way up either

[autumn notch]

it needs to be all the way off unfortunately

[crisp thorn]

Well thats gay

[autumn notch]

gore can still be on though

[autumn notch]

yeah that and the abyss seem to suffer from that issue

[crisp thorn]

Well that sucks

[dreamy phoenix]

blood and gore in general are the main performance killers right now

they look cool but holy shit are they tanky

[crisp thorn]

Other than my game repeatedly crashing tho the final challenge really isnt that hard imo

[brave basalt]

When multiplayer comes out wanna 1v1 @shell bronze

[shell bronze]

sure

[autumn notch]

thankfully with gore on you can still see where you have struck a willie, just obv no actual blood

[crisp thorn]

Wait did they announce multiplayer

[signal wedge]

Clueless

[tawdry heron]

Turn gore off

[brave basalt]

No they didn’t

Multiplayers never coming out

[crisp thorn]

Oh

Well that sucks

[shell bronze]

yes

[signal wedge]

Playing ghost of yotei, its so peak. But man, I wish the nemesis system wasn't copyrighted because it would be so dope in the game

[median ridge]

games most likely never even coming out

[brave basalt]

Better than midshima?

[crisp thorn]

That sucks even more

[signal wedge]

EA in the next three months my brother

[signal wedge]

If you didn't like tsushima you wont like yotei

[median ridge]

bro i want to play it so bad but i spent all my money on battle field 6

[shell bronze]

i am going to kill every single person responsible for copyrighting nemesis system

i swear to god

it would be so GOOD

[brave basalt]

Halfsword nemesis

[shell bronze]

the closest we have to that is deathloop

[crisp thorn]

Sorry if i sound dumb here but whats the nemesis system

[shell bronze]

and they got around it by making it a multiplayer invasion thing

[signal wedge]

Middle earth shadow or mordor and shadow of war

[crisp thorn]

I still dont get it

[signal wedge]

Its a system that randomly generates orcs that track you down, ambush you and are bosses

[brave basalt]

For every limb you chop off I’m gonna come back replacing it with armor @shell bronze

[signal wedge]

It gives them random buffs and abilities

If you are killed by a normal orc they get promoted too

Its an incredible system

[crisp thorn]

Sounds nice tbh

Which games copyrighted it tho

[mental kelp]

short edge cut across the head

[autumn notch]

it's coming to early access like really soon wym?

[mental kelp]

warner brothers

[crisp thorn]

Crazy

[shell bronze]

sounds fair

[median ridge]

nah played to many games like this that have never js come out but fingers crossed they dont fumble and it actually comes out

[brave basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/shadow-of-war-shadow-of-mordor-tearofgrace-ogbur-ogbur-the-judge-gif-8542854278075050662

[signal wedge]

Well, warnerbros copyrighted the concept

[crisp thorn]

Thats gay

[shell bronze]

unironically gaming's 9/11 is that

[brave basalt]

It’s so true

[signal wedge]

Clueless..

[shell sky]

how is this game so popular without multiplayer wtf

[brave basalt]

Nintendos trying to be gaming ww2

[autumn notch]

[lethal ingot]

There's multiple notable historical treatises which include the use of paired swords. So that's a fairly weak argument against them. They were certainly uncommon but far from unheard of.

[median ridge]

therye coming

[lethal ingot]

They are specifically noted for being useful, by Palladini through Terminello, for fending off multiple opponents. Which I've found to be the case in Half Sword as well.

[soft osprey]

Nerd

[lethal ingot]

Always have been, always will be.

Definitely a lot more common than the use of wooden shovels or farming scythes in combat, lol.

i wish there was a more streamlined way of letting your left hand go when doing a side halfsword stab

[mental kelp]

mod..

[shell bronze]

so it can go all the way in

no i am not

[mental kelp]

watch what u say around this guy he can ban u

[signal wedge]

wow, clueless became a mod, disgusting

[autumn notch]

I wish you could like go into halfswording or 2 handed from the left hand to get some more angles

[mental kelp]

ansetzen and another short edge hewing

[mental kelp]

the day of reckoning for anyone he finds annoying (under 17 years of age)

the halfcord rapture

[signal wedge]

if that happened at least 60% of the server would be on the chopping block lol

don't worry i think clueless will do well

[mental kelp]

tbf 60% of the server caused 100% of the 5min slow mode during the stream

temporary clip spam blockage

[shell bronze]

shhh

[shell bronze]

PLEASE god make this happen

server quality would improve

(i jest)

(maybe)

[prisma plume]

how do u sent a vid

[signal wedge]

we have a leveling system based on how much you chat so once you're level 2 you'll get image perms.

it doesn't take too long though you'll get them quickly. spamming will not work tho just in case you thought of doing that lol

seeing this clips if multiplayer ever comes im fucked

[olive bolt]

Does this game have diffrent maps or is that mods

[twilit escarp]

beatdown of the fucking century

[shell bronze]

i got on my knees

but we dont talk about that

[jolly gorge]

Yo whats the hardest boss in yalls opinion

For me its commoner tbh

[steady hornet]

yeah his reach is just insane sometimes lol

[jolly gorge]

Bro i just half sword it and pray

Or just stay in tier 2 for the axe

[steady hornet]

i sprint thrust then pray

[brave basalt]

Plancon

Commoner is fun asf

[jolly gorge]

Now whats yalls favorite tier 2 weapon

I love the garden hoe

[brave basalt]

Long Sickle

Aka the weaker axe

[jolly gorge]

Like the boss weapon or the garden hoe?

[brave basalt]

I can’t play gauntlet cuz I’m too use to a singular weapon

[steady hornet]

the lil baby axe thing i think hes talking about

[simple vale]

still at it

[jolly gorge]

So the tomahawk

[jolly gorge]

Cant stop the A-train

[fallen iris]

holy shit you are a mod now. i blocked you bc i'd be talking w people here intermittently and you'd randomly drop mid clips of you playing that had nothing to do w the conversation lol

[simple vale]

jsut noticed that this boss has black armor except for his shoes...

[azure mirage]

congrats on the mod @shell bronze

[shell bronze]

yeah that's kind of how it goes

[shell bronze]

i post half sword clips in half sword chat

[twilit escarp]

doesn't everyone?

[azure mirage]

post ur hs clips on mod chat now LOL

[shell bronze]

yeah but i post a lot and a lot of people got problems with that

best this person keeps me blocked as long as they remain a bit more cordial than what was said moments ago

[shell bronze]

ty ty

[azure mirage]

im blocking you jnow 🙄

[fallen iris]

i didnt have a problem, i js blocked you so i didnt have to see them. i'd still press "view blocked message" since you were the only one who'd do it then lmfao

if you messaged i'd still respond back, usually

[twilit escarp]

I gave him a long ass time to surrender

[twilit escarp]

man I cannot help but dislike how you phrased that

[fallen iris]

yea i've reread it like 3-4 times and i dont either

[shell bronze]

i found your initial phrasing not much more pleasant either

hence why i responded in kind

but if we don't have problems, then we don't have problems

[vapid hull]

Gotsta force surrender them </3

[shell bronze]

pls no that would be devastating

[fallen iris]

yea it seems going back and forth abt it would just escalate. i didn't say it with any malicious intent, just a matter-of-fact that you're the only person i've had blocked here bc you drop clips in here and not the game footage channel(even tho everyone capable does)

[twilit escarp]

yeah I'd say that's totally valid, blocking someone isn't inherently a malicious thing.

especially when they're incidentally disruptive to your conversations

[fallen iris]

maybe not disruptive

[twilit escarp]

not of their own choosing ofc

[fallen iris]

but not contributive, for sure

[fallen iris]

i also said something about it before i did it as something of a joke, i think

[azure mirage]

LOL

[tender quest]

It's against the rules to block hs mod and staff

[twilit escarp]

and yet, Clueless was not a mod when they were blocked, ergo, not a rulebreak.

[fallen iris]

ok but i blocked bro b4 he was staff

[shell bronze]

the game footage channel has a 5 minute timer and the only perk of posting in there is that people without permissions here can do so in that channel

[shell bronze]

they did block me before i went yellow so i'm not very sure on how this applies

[fallen iris]

why would you send clips more than once within 5 minutes anyway lol

[shell bronze]

ex post facto?

[fallen iris]

i dont think it makes a difference, and its not like it disrupts your ability to moderate

[shell bronze]

because i reserve the right to do so

[tender quest]

I send my clips here all the time and noone seems bothered

[fallen iris]

what does that even mean lol

[vapid hull]

Likewise!!!

Except this one guy who kinda DIED !

[fallen iris]

hey so i just read the rules and it doesnt say anywhere you can't block staff

[tender quest]

Check at the top

[mental kelp]

Matches take less than 30 secs, many times only like <10 and clips can be gathered plentifully within a 5 min timer

If the player is good

[vapid hull]

Blocking is fundamentally useless since you can see +1 blocked message anywho

[tender quest]

Right before number 1

[shell bronze]

i'm not the only one who posts more frequently than every 5 minutes in here, i just happen to do it more often and around the clock

[fallen iris]

okay lol, pulling a "we can make the rules as we go" is a silly argument to an unlisted rule

[vapid hull]

I’d say just skip the dwama and ignore the clipss

[tender quest]

That's right

[fallen iris]

what does blocking a staff member fundamentally do to your ability to moderate a discord server

[fallen iris]

yea i only saw urs because im second shift, so i see yours more frequently than others

[twilit escarp]

I mean, look, I get you guys all have valid points, and blocking people that make rulings in channels isn't exactly constructive but respect is a two way thing, everyone is here of their own free will and writing mildly threatening responses to a perceived slight just rubs me the wrong way, that's all, especially from a moderator.

[fallen iris]

i see it that way too, mildly threatening. seems its mostly de-escalated between clueless and i, like i said i dont have any bad blood with the guy

[tender quest]

Then we're all good 👍

[twilit escarp]

seems to be so

[fallen iris]

alrighty then

[shell bronze]

there is no threat in that response as much as there was a 'we should keep things polite'. the initial remark was perceived to be rather passive-aggressive.
like i said, i have no issues with you and if the feeling is mutual then that's that

[twilit escarp]

well we'll leave it there then

[shell bronze]

absolutie

[fallen iris]

well, all i'm saying is i feel you perceived it incorrectly, is all. i wasn't being malicious, and if you understood it that way that's my bad

[twilit escarp]

ok, without further adieu

[shell bronze]

my apologies for jumping the gun as well then

[fallen iris]

i was just expressing my surprise that the one guy i had blocked bc of excessive clips being mod was a funny surprise

and, to be clear, not a bad thing

[twilit escarp]

"Compromise, my friend, is the essence of diplomacy, and diplomacy is the cornerstone of love."

[fallen iris]

i think the only thing that fluffled my feathers up was militus coming in outta nowhere lol, and even then, not a whole lot

[fallen iris]

where's that from i like that

[twilit escarp]

Venture Bros, Henry Killinger

incredibly, incredibly weird show

but very good

how are we doing

[twilit escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kick-dance-gif-10262246

[sand herald]

i’m in the middle of a workout

just wanted to check up on what’s happening in here

[shell bronze]

cardio or weights or calisthenics

[twilit escarp]

it's leg day

[sand herald]

calisthenics 💯

[shell bronze]

he on the pull up bar

🔥

[sand herald]

LOL you’re right

i got 50 more chin ups to go then i’m out for the night

[shell bronze]

it's unironically one of the best exercises the moment you can do it lmao

great for everything on your upper body depending on what you wanna focus on

[fallen iris]

funniest shit ive ever seen

[sand herald]

for sure, i do basic calisthenic exercises but i do a lot of sets and reps. it’s been great for building out my physique

[shell bronze]

the only difficult muscle group to work for calisthenics imo is lower body

not much you can do past your own body weight

[sand herald]

i got a love hate relationship with leg days

[fallen iris]

wouldn't a lot of cardio be lower body, since it has to support your upper body anyway?

[shell bronze]

leg day gmfu i skip it on god

[shell bronze]

i'd say cardio is more conditioning and endurance over strength training

[twilit escarp]

I worked in bars for like 3 years so maintaining good lower body strength was a matter of survival for cellar work

and a strong core

[sand herald]

besides more advanced variations, i typically make it worth it through lots of reps

[fallen iris]

oh its definitely conditioning and endurance, but i feel it still works good on strength training

say, the stairmaster

[shell bronze]

after you can comfortably support your own body weight there's not much you can go beyond that strength-wise until you add weight

[sand herald]

for sure, i’ve been incorporating more core work in my exercises. namely hanging knee raises and hanging leg raises

[shell bronze]

do not talk to me about the stairmaster i fear that thing

the true test of a man

[fallen iris]

stairmaster til heart failure lol

[shell bronze]

i already skimp on cardio and legs enough as it is 🤣

[sand herald]

real as hell

as my leg day is coming up tomorrow 🥹

[fallen iris]

🪦

[opaque anvil]

how does health work in the abyss? does it just slowly heal whenever you kill an enemy or something?

[azure mirage]

You fully heal every wave

[opaque anvil]

makes sense

wondered why my disabled arm suddenly healed

[vapid hull]

stairmaster is fucking nightmare hell

Especially since its a fixed pace

[shell bronze]

it's so ass

[vapid hull]

No matter what I usually wind up outpacing it, or get inpatient waiting for it

And even then, it burns like NO fucking calories

[runic karma]

Always strike with the tip of your blade

and strike true

[coral reef]

Any news on the release date?

[runic karma]

Until your in this position

[coral reef]

Just curious I didn’t watch the whole questions and answer stream

[azure mirage]

paid early access will come out in Q4 2025 (Last 3 months of the year) unless it gets delayed. No official date known

[runic karma]

Had to do that with one hand

[azure mirage]

Check pins :)

[runic karma]

holy that felt cool in the mment

[coral reef]

Ah okay, thanks, they did say that it releases in steam next fest

Didn’t say what day of it tho

[azure mirage]

no

[shell bronze]

after steam fest

iirc

[coral reef]

Well it’s implied that we’ll get a release date then

I got my hopes up though

A damn shame

[shell bronze]

i trust in the devs to give us a good product regardless release

[runic karma]

Cool clip

[coral reef]

Demo is already a good product Tbf

Just a little bit of refining for early access would do lmao

[shell bronze]

yeah so the only way to go is up but in a good way

good things will happen ❤️

[coral reef]

Yes indeed, they seem like good devs who actually care like their project

[shell bronze]

and according to devs early access will be quite literally unrecognizable

[pearl ferry]

yay

[shell bronze]

from the current demo

[coral reef]

Rlly?

[pearl ferry]

early access will be peak. I have faith

[shell bronze]

yeah

the gore system is already one of the major things

[coral reef]

When I talked to one of the devs they said it will stay very much like the demo

[runic karma]

Peak

fast reaction time

[shell bronze]

we got heads exploding and eyeballs falling out and blood that doesn't crash the game

[coral reef]

Though that could just mean combat and shit

[shell bronze]

probably direction

[coral reef]

Ye probably

[pearl ferry]

two face treatment

[coral reef]

I can’t imagine the core of the game changing too much

[runic karma]

sometimes I fail tho

okay twin

i belive you

[orchid spindle]

i need to get better at pokes and persice blades yknow

i can barly get the spear to stab where i want it to half the time yknow

i need to be able to nimbledick my way inbetween armor by the time the multiplayer drops so i can finaly bully all my fighting game friends

[vital perch]

when you get to later tiers you want to prioritize blunt damage

you'll be knocking out opponents more than actually killing

[orchid spindle]

i mean yeah but i want to be able to shove it in the knights mailslot yknow

i gotta get insane withit

even though its far more practical to bonk a brother

[vital perch]

well it's insanely hard but go for it

[orchid spindle]

brb gonna grind knights with commoner longsword till become perfect

i mean yall proved it achevable

im too dang hooked on my 30th final chalange to actualy care about getting good at the game

in them rogelike mines

[vital perch]

abyss you mean?

[orchid spindle]

yeah the abyss

thank god they left the black void mode in , the fog is too scary

[shell bronze]

no neck armor be like

[vital perch]

the fog is coming

[vital perch]

neck armor is fake

[shell bronze]

it works half the time

[vital perch]

neck armor or not won't protect me from mace blows

knight tier has mostly weapons that deal blunt damage

[vital perch]

oh fuck forgot to remove the music 😭

today's bonk

[long veldt]

I saw a clip that was apparently from a dev, with a much in depth gore, with eyes being able to be popped out. is that real?

https://youtu.be/3pTKnOFW0LQ?t=114

[tender violet]

how to deal with polearms

if polearms are banned i swear i would've beaten this game already

[vital perch]

look for an opening and strike , being aggresive will usually will result in your opponent KO'ing you

a shove against a fence or any stun really should give you one

[rustic iris]

plz add multiplayer

[karmic orchid]

Guys what will it improve in official release

Beside multiplayer

I get annoyed with the weapon sometimes pick up stick in behind or on the ground dragging the hands with it

[clever vault]

i have over 100 hours in this game and this hasn’t happened until yesterday, my player keeps entering a crouch stance then completely falls over and ends up staggered at completely random times while sprinting, is this normal?

[sand herald]

Yeah, whenever that happens to me I just restart the game

[clever vault]

ok thank you

[rain cape]

Is it possible to reset the progress after you beat the game

[vital perch]

@sand herald btw have you seen the other throwing clips

[clever vault]

also very cool videos

[vital perch]

check pins

[sand herald]

I think so yeah, its always nice getting a throw to land

I got a good one earlier

[vital perch]

i've been aiming for a head throw , 40% of my throws almost hit but got deflected 😔

[sand herald]

I usually go for side throws than overhead throws, but that’s also because it’s easier for me that way with longer weapons

[rain cape]

Thx

[vital perch]

overhead throws are far cooler tho aren't they

[sand herald]

I like both pretty equally, it's just tougher for me to consistently land overhead throws on high sensitivity so I just go with side throws

[vital perch]

for me overheads are a gamble

either they hit (potentially) deflected or they don't

[tender violet]

yo how

move sick as heck

[sand herald]

Good amounts of practice mixed with experimentation

[sand herald]

Yeah I think they're more of a gamble than side throws. I have a side throw clip somewhere you might like

I just have to find it first

[restive barn]

i know how to fix

just turn off gore

no dismemberments=no twitching leg

[sand herald]

Ahh interesting

[cunning aspen]

Such an insult

Another clip of the fool's guard

How tf did you even do that

Somehow won without shedding blood

[sand herald]

LOL this was awesome

[brazen heath]

I have a question. In weapons like poleaxes, that have a sharp and blunt side, is there any way to switch between the 2 sides?

Like If the default for the poleaxe is the axe part can I in some way switch to the hammer part?

[lost rover]

No

You must

[brazen heath]

Damn

[dark folio]

I dont think so

[prisma saffron]

Different grips are planned though

[restive barn]

kanabo

i am well aware that it is really heavy

[vapid cipher]

reversegripping the knife would be game changing

Maybe

[vital perch]

bro's the legendary half sword everyone heard of

[restive barn]

what weapon

[vital perch]

wdym

[restive barn]

what weapon should i mod into half sword

[vital perch]

i told you , caestus gloves

if you make the spikes golden i'll nut

[restive barn]

bet

nvm

[restive barn]

i hate making glove-based weapons

next ACTUAL weapon

[vital perch]

it's just gauntlets with tiny swords on knuckles

[vital perch]

unless you have a glove

[restive barn]

i know but doing stuff like that often glitches the grips

[vital perch]

why not just make it armor like gauntlets

instead of grips

[restive barn]

cuz not possible

[regal iron]

I was hoping youd chop his head off

[vital perch]

fuck

[regal iron]

But still nice lol

[spring eagle]

it was much more gentle this way

actually not really

pretty sure he suffered alot more this way

but hey

[vital perch]

me when gentle blood setting

[spring eagle]

neck snaps are lovely

[regal iron]

I was on max gore 💀

[vital perch]

i know im jk

i often get bloodless kills with the mace

#halfsword-chat-⚔ message

[regal iron]

Thats the most gentle mace kill ive ever seen

[vital perch]

didn't want to make him sad :(

he almost cried when i hit him so hard so i apologized after recording

Good thing my willies are treated well
They don't cry at all!
