Blade and Sorcery's Rakta Warrior

[barren vine]

god bless!

[barren vine]

good lord

yo how do you move your mouse like that

whats your sensitive

[shell bronze]

medium-low high dpi

[barren vine]

huh

i always use excruciatingly high dpi

then low sens

[shell bronze]

there's a balance

[barren vine]

i guess i should trust you

[shell bronze]

too low sens/dpi and you have actual noodle arms

too high and if you're not john halfsword you have zero actual control

[barren vine]

true

i mean moreso how do you make the sword do allat

i try and block and lewillzo throws his back out

[shell bronze]

fine control and a fair bit of practice

[barren vine]

fair

how many hours?

[shell bronze]

600

[barren vine]

GREAT SCOTT

okay

it makes sense now

[shell bronze]

only 200 was spent locked in

[barren vine]

i have like 1/60th of your time ingame

[shell bronze]

the first 400 was wasted playing like a dumbass in knight tier with a polearm

[barren vine]

knight tier with greatsword better

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1043854764095582260/1425998550101135461/dontsaythat.gif

how is this possible btw

[shell bronze]

oh the grappling/wrestling

[barren vine]

honestly learning to wrestle in halfsword is my main goal

[shell bronze]

you usually do it with stunned opponents and have to grab them a certain way

[barren vine]

mmmmhhh

okay

so u knock em around a bit then you can do ts?

[sand herald]

@shell bronze i've compiled clips from militia up to knight

[quasi gazelle]

[quasi gazelle]

(It didn't end well)

[sand herald]

[quasi gazelle]

wtf

I wish I could've clipped this

I somehow picked a dude up with a glave and threw him outside of the arena

[shell forge]

Willie can SAFELY wield a maximum of four swords

[sand herald]

clip spam incoming

[sand herald]

Militia

Soldier

Veteran

Man At Arms

All the weapons used were random mid-tier polearms and my damage settings were on 50/50

[barren vine]

very cool

[scarlet sonnet]

Lol devs need to explain this one

[shell bronze]

average modded gameplay

[quasi gazelle]

uhh

It was because of low gravity

[scarlet sonnet]

There are mods too?

[quasi gazelle]

yup

basically only mod you need is hs enhancer

and maybe ovrdths selector thing

[scarlet sonnet]

Where to get that?

[quasi gazelle]

nexusmods

hs enhancer lets you spawn stuff like npcs and gear

and more fun shit

[shell bronze]

you should play the game normally for a bit first before going modded

[restive barn]

who will win

kriegsmesser vs halberd

Goated Pfp

AJFA is my favourite Metallica album

[signal wedge]

ride the lightning >

[young saffron]

That one is also good

For whom the bells toll, Sad but True and Fade to black are some of my favourites from that album

[signal wedge]

Sad but true is not ride the lightning lol

Thats black album

Which I also like

[young saffron]

mb

mandella effect or something

I didn't even know Metalica was a double L up until like a couple hours ago

I'm slightly silly

[young saffron]

I guess you could say Me Not remembering that it's part of the black album is...

Sad but True

[worn spear]

normalise letting the NPCs get back up instead of finishing them off

[young saffron]

"think fast chucklenuts" - Helmet Head

[quasi gazelle]

most of them don't let me up

why should I

[worn spear]

you suffered so why shouldnt you make the others suffer as well?

but thats your point of view

my point of view is more like "i suffered so ill make sure the others dont"

[quasi gazelle]

no no

I'm ending their suffering if they are really hurt

if they are fine then I'll let them get up

[worn spear]

ohhh if they cant get up then yeah just ease their suffering

[young saffron]

I just found a sick band bro

It's called antlers. but looks up "Antlers band" or else you'll get a bunch of movie scenes of a wendigo movie

[worn spear]

based

[quasi gazelle]

sadly there has not been an instance where they are fine 😔

[worn spear]

i like to load in with a glitch that lets me be a knight while the others are peasants

[quasi gazelle]

rematch

[quasi gazelle]

god damn all this in first person too

crazy

[warped apex]

I play too much

[snow gulch]

gotta learn to distance my overheads right but this was my best yet

[quasi gazelle]

you make awesome montages bro

[worn spear]

how are you this good especially in first person

[warped apex]

Because

I'm literally the best first person player

https://tenor.com/view/british-cop-screaming-screaming-sad-gif-1879411192175791821

[hasty blade]

i pray that halfsword ea has cutscenes 🔥😭 🙏

[warped apex]

It's a shame

[worn spear]

cant wait when half sword vr comes out

[shy ice]

does anyone know how i can reset my progress and play from peasant and up in gauntlet mode

[snow gulch]

i kinda miss 0.3 combat at times

the new ones better but it had some cool asf moments

[shy ice]

@snow gulch do u know?

[snow gulch]

no idea

[shy ice]

alr

[quasi gazelle]

You'll probably become a serial killer

[hasty blade]

Yea

although. i genuenly think the new combat. is the BEST. combat EVER.

it just feels so GOOOD

but it still has some bad spots

but 0.3 is also cool

cause funni

[snow gulch]

i feel like .3 was designed for enemies to be able to fight longer

like this wouldnt of happened in the new version yk

[hasty blade]

yea

and i also kinda liked 0.3 gore

cause you could bash heads in

[snow gulch]

but comparing the two, id say 0.4 is more realistic, movement and swinging feels less weighty and more controlled

plus hitting someone in 0.4 with a blunt weapon is just so satisfying cause of the sound + the way their head snaps back with that ash effect

[warped apex]

Remember old throwing weapobs in the playtest?

[snow gulch]

0.3 gore isnt as laggy for me which was nice

[warped apex]

You could toss a buckler like a cruise missile

Good times

Now you've to master the buckler toss to even stun lol

[hasty blade]

yea

[meager meadow]

what do i do after i beat the demo completely

[snow gulch]

also i preferred how the blood sprayed, looked super cool sometimes. i do like how the blood splatters here, makes a fight feel like a thriller when you smash somebodys head in and then the blood splatters on the fence

[hasty blade]

i remember when u used to be able to graze the head of a willie with a mace. and it'd cave inwards.

[warped apex]

Beat it 100 times

I've already beaten it 135 times

[snow gulch]

just play sandbox and get better or do whatever you wanna

[meager meadow]

what sandbox

[warped apex]

I'm going for 200 wins before ea

[snow gulch]

sandbox is basically free mode

any class you want

[meager meadow]

i know what sandbox is but how do i get in that mode

is it challenge mode

[hasty blade]

its not

its free mode cro

😭

[worn spear]

i killed the guy in abyss with the scythe

[rapid vigil]

wheres the goated mods i keep seeing

[soft osprey]

Nexus. Likely the enhancer mod and the loadout selector mod

[real tapir]

Why is my game not loading💀

[quasi gazelle]

how tf have I not watched any smii7y videos on hs

[soft osprey]

Is it not opening at all? Crashing on unreal logo?

[real tapir]

I downloaded it den it stays on a black screen

[soft osprey]

First make sure you’re running on dx11 not dx12. Right click halfsword in your steam library, then properties. Under General there’s a line for Launch Options. In there type in: -dx11

If that doesn’t work

Follow this guide for a clean reinstall

[lean niche]

[worn spear]

can you recover from a dismembered hand

[humble iris]

no

[faint crater]

Surprisingly you don't bleed out so quickly some of the times. Your character gripping the stump of a hand is the most annoying thing though.

[split crescent]

Had a fight with the peasant boss, i cut off his hand and he stopped trying to fight me, but since he broke my leg he wouldn’t give up

it was so dumb, and my willie couldn’t even muster a single swing without falling over

when using the mouse do you move it with the whole arm, mostly the shoulder, keeping the mouse straight, or do you use your wrist and tilt it?

[dark folio]

Depends

[brave basalt]

anyone have a guide on snap hits?

or know a thing or two about snappy hits

w a longsword ofc

[opaque creek]

u can use camera tech for snappy swing

[humble iris]

raise sword above your head and double click into a stab

snaps down

[brave basalt]

theres a name for that move

i forgot what it was

[humble iris]

ye

[brave basalt]

shiedelhau?

[humble iris]

i forgot how to spell it but yeah something like that

[brave basalt]

double clicks faster than alt?

[humble iris]

Scheitelhau

[humble iris]

you can do both

alt make it follow through more down im pretty sure

[brave basalt]

is shieldhau practical

in halfsword

[humble iris]

practical in what sense

[brave basalt]

will i be able to use it to block attacks and use consistently

and not just one in every 30 matches

[humble iris]

honestly

its not very practical

it has its moments

mainly for show

[quasi gazelle]

I wish they added just a normal wooden stick

[humble iris]

the only genuine practical master cuts is the zornhau krumphau and sheitelhau

[opaque creek]

Wooden sword can be gotten with a mod

[humble iris]

video wont play for me for some reason

oh there

[brave basalt]

same

[humble iris]

nvm

[quasi gazelle]

I want a legit bo staff

[brave basalt]

now its working too

lol

what

[humble iris]

i really gotta practice my parrying more

ive focused way too much on master cuts 😭

[dark folio]

Use enhancer to enable invulnerability so you dont have the risk of dying

[humble iris]

ive been doing that

[dark folio]

Alright

[humble iris]

the only issue i have is reading my opponent and deflecing upward and downward strikes

[humble iris]

especially when they chain a horizontal to a upward

[quasi gazelle]

do y'all think I could do this as peasant with a pitchfork

[shell bronze]

youre talking about those rapid flicks?

[brave basalt]

sure

[shell bronze]

these you just flick up/down/both ways fast enough and combine with movement

[quasi gazelle]

damn I can't even swing down straight

[quasi gazelle]

my swing usually goes to the right

[shell bronze]

takes practice

[snow gulch]

cast aside theres no coming hoommmeee

[upper wyvern]

were burning chaos in the windddd

[gusty urchin]

how do you perfectly strike down the middle mine never goes straight down?

[humble iris]

practice your mouse control and movements

as of now theres no real "tech" for this except for good practice

[upper wyvern]

you can also position your mouse in the middle and just hold alt

it will cut too

[humble iris]

yes

[upper wyvern]

most of the time its way consistent

its just not "Chaotic" enough for satisfaction

[humble iris]

same with holding the sword over your head straight (if its angled to the right it will not work) and double clicking

those 2 are the only real secondary inputs you could do for this

[humble iris]

chaos over practicality all day

[upper wyvern]

thats what the game is really about hahah

still one of the best if not the best game ive ever played

and its only a demo...

[humble iris]

definitely a unique game

thats what makes it really nice

and its player versatility

[upper wyvern]

the only thing holding you back is creativity atp.. and crashes..

[humble iris]

yeah lmao

[upper wyvern]

and for me pc

cause shi i cant get stable 60 fps on high🔥

need to upgrade

[humble iris]

they could probably add a custom graphics setting into their game in the future

where you can choose what specific graphical part is min to max

[dark folio]

Thats not bad though?

[upper wyvern]

yeah its not bad but i would like to play other gamemode than always hopping on 1v1

its not boring

[dark folio]

Lower graphics

[upper wyvern]

but when im playing carnage, spoilance, im not even going to talk about small buhurt of brave stand cause there i have 20 fps like always lmao

[upper wyvern]

i get what youre saying but still i want quality

im not blaming the game

cause i love it

i know that lowering blood helps

turning off gore

[dark folio]

Ive only once done a small buhurt and my game almost crashed

[upper wyvern]

thats what im talking about hahah same goes for me trust

[dark folio]

Actually no maybe twice or thrice

[dark folio]

With low graphics

[upper wyvern]

im wondering hows the game gonna look when it comes out

[soft kelp]

No

[quasi gazelle]

why not though

[dark folio]

I want to clip my games but i cant get a playable frame rate without my game looking ass

[soft kelp]

Pitchfork is first of all jank

Lighter than baron poleaxe

and way shorter

[deep shale]

its gr8 for progressing through gauntlet

[quasi gazelle]

I gotta try

[upper wyvern]

i dont use anything else but medal and when i watch the clip it literally stutters most of the time

whats your specs ?

[dark folio]

Gtx 850m and 8gb ddr3 ram. Idk my cpu

[upper wyvern]

ohhh yeah so the pc here is the problem

[dark folio]

Yeah

[deep shale]

those are some old specs

[upper wyvern]

even mine would be considered old rn

[humble iris]

that 8gb ram is a knife to the stomach

[upper wyvern]

to be honest you need at least 4060 to play games

i mean not really but if you wish for quality thats what you gotta have

[dark folio]

My mom promised she would get me a new pc though

[upper wyvern]

sweet of her

[dark folio]

Depends on what kinda games you want to play

[upper wyvern]

the newer ones im talking about

[dark folio]

Yeah

[dark folio]

Yeah

[upper wyvern]

but not only the new ones, 4060 isnt bad pricewise

what it is like 200 euro?

250?

i remember when my gtx 1660 had the same price as 4060 has now

[upper wyvern]

when it was new

[humble iris]

gpus inflated sm 😭

[dark folio]

300

[humble iris]

a USED 4070 is still 2000+ usd

[upper wyvern]

yeah they crazy

[dark folio]

It got better. I remember seeing a 4070 cost 1k

[deep shale]

upgrades

[humble iris]

or 4090

[upper wyvern]

how much better it is than 4060?

[humble iris]

i forgot

[humble iris]

i think it was a used 4090

not 4070

so alot better regardless

[upper wyvern]

hmmm

[humble iris]

the last 2 digits are what matter the most

the higher it is the better it performs

[upper wyvern]

monke understanding lmaooo

BUT ITS THE TRUTH.

[humble iris]

i will manufacture a new gpu

[upper wyvern]

what will you name it?

or how holy shit i cant speak english

[humble iris]

thats correct grammar 😭

[upper wyvern]

what or how?

[humble iris]

what

[upper wyvern]

its not my native

language

[humble iris]

i know but you got it correct the first time

[upper wyvern]

as i thought goood

[humble iris]

uhhh

whatever number comes next from last gen

[spark herald]

When's the game releasing chat

[sweet canyon]

That’s a hard question but long poleaxe is the shit

And game releases after next fest so like November maybe if not late October

[spark herald]

Best weapon against enemies with full armor

[spark herald]

Oh peak

I guess early access won't have multiplayer yet

But when it gets it..boi it will be absolute peak

[sweet canyon]

I think they said it’ll have local 1v1s

[spark herald]

So like,if i invite my friends i can 1v1 em ?

[upper wyvern]

if youre on the same pc

[spark herald]

Oh mb

[hidden zephyr]

Help, the willy is eating my sword

[upper wyvern]

[hidden zephyr]

[uncut girder]

hey chat

dead chat

[sleek gull]

Chat is over on Twitch.

[unborn crater]

hey, anyone got any tips and tricks for the baron stage?

it feels like whole another difficulty

[shell bronze]

turn blood off

and use polearms

[unborn crater]

why turn blood off?

im not lagging lol

[shell bronze]

blood is highly likely to crash the ultimate challenge at the late stage lag or not

but if it doesnt crash you out keep it on

[unborn crater]

but you recommend polearms, i figured as such. I feel like im just asking how i get good lol like there is some magic wand

well there is a magic wand... the placon

if i can take it without them magic wanding me

[tulip geyser]

havent been on half sword in a minute, red weapon??

[shell bronze]

modded

[shell bronze]

plancon and voulge answers every question the game might have for you

[unborn crater]

voulge?

oh, just looked it up. yeah that thing is nice but so unwieldy

[inland sluice]

is the baron the last boss before the ultimate challenge?

i forget the names

[unborn crater]

the baron is the final boss in the ultimate challenge but i was asking tips and tricks for the ultimate challenge itself. my bad

[inland sluice]

ah i see

I havn't gotten to the end of the ultimate challenge yet

[brave basalt]

anyone know a thing or two about stab realignment tech

[snow gulch]

drifting in the ocean all alonee

[upper wyvern]

crazy solo

insanely GOOD solo*

[snow gulch]

peak

[upper wyvern]

nah im listening to this shi rn

[snow gulch]

i will never forget you as long as i live, willie

[snow gulch]

devil trigger 2 came out btw not even joking

[shell bronze]

a firm headshot or two from either of those weapons will do the trick against anyone in this game

[upper wyvern]

no way

where?

sin devil trigger alr im listening

[snow gulch]

casey edwards sin devil trigger

ye

[upper wyvern]

crazy that i havent heard of it

[snow gulch]

its view count is surprisingly low

not even 1 mil

[upper wyvern]

it used to be something with shadow banning or something similiar

or i dont remember the reason why bury the light was deleted on youtube

or spotify

[snow gulch]

possible ye

[upper wyvern]

your honest opinion on the new song?

[snow gulch]

it took a bit but i started to like it

[upper wyvern]

first half did not click for me

but the rest is awesome

[snow gulch]

yeah when it gets into that flow its great its just not the best opening

[shell bronze]

[upper wyvern]

ill probably love it by the time i listen to it

[upper wyvern]

i thought it will be something like dmc 3 soundtracks lmao first 10 seconds had me thinking its gonna be cerberus theme

wait nvm not cerberus

track 28

THIS SHIT SO GOOD THOUGH

[snow gulch]

ye as soon as you get used to it

[upper wyvern]

they gotta give us dmc 6 ngl

[snow gulch]

true

[upper wyvern]

they just have to...

[snow gulch]

if they do i hope they stop doing the stupid gimmick bosses that dont support the games structure

[upper wyvern]

AT LEAST GIVE IT WHEN IN ALIVE

[snow gulch]

give us more vergil style fights

[upper wyvern]

what do you mean specifically?

[snow gulch]

like you know, nidhogg for example

[upper wyvern]

hmm i think i get what youre saying

[upper wyvern]

1v1s with a lot of room to dodge etc?

[snow gulch]

or just like fights that are faster paced

[upper wyvern]

oh yeah

dude dmc 1 mundus boss fight

[snow gulch]

i remember struggling with that fight

the presentation on it was great though

[upper wyvern]

well we just flew to space and dodged some crazy ass projectiles

but the satisfaction...

TBH dmc 1 was great

i still have not finished dmc 3

im on mission 20 i think and this vergil bossfight made me lose my mind lol

bro was literally saying lightwork no reaction to me

and proceeded to whoop my ass

[snow gulch]

dmc 3 is probably my favorite

the vergil fights were amazing

[brave basalt]

tf did i do wrong here

[upper wyvern]

but its sad that we cant change styles without mods...

but the game is great really great

still, dmc 5 was my first one and it holds a special place in my heart

the amount of edits i saw on youtube

[snow gulch]

lol fair

[upper wyvern]

i love this game

and the netflix show too lmao

waiting for part 2

[snow gulch]

i havent heard great things abt it but ive never watched

[olive bolt]

What show

[humble iris]

you backed up a bit too far

[brave basalt]

!?!?!

to me it looks like i backed up too little

[humble iris]

his tip slided off your sword and stabbed you

because of the distance apart

[brave basalt]

i should fight at a closer range

[humble iris]

maybe

but backing up for defense is good still

everything in moderation though

[olive bolt]

Swinging your sword like a mad man is the play

[brave basalt]

if you wanna die

[humble iris]

this is the only meta tech in hs ever

forget everything you learned

flail like a madman

[brave basalt]

yeah i needed to readjust my distance

[humble iris]

yup

but if your going to fight at a close close distance

[humble iris]

be careful of side strikes over-extending and hitting your side still

[median forum]

willie has such delicious feet

[humble iris]

thats awesome man

[hazy cloak]

Hmm why cant i attach an image? ;-;

[shell bronze]

no image perms

[hazy cloak]

oh i can post in photography..?

[humble iris]

talk until level 3 and then you can send images anywhere

[hazy cloak]

I got a glitch where the man is naked

[upper wyvern]

in my opinion its great. worth a watch

[young saffron]

fr

[sonic vector]

hey do any of yall got suggestions for better control of the sword (its so hard to hit the weakspots in the armor)

[upper wyvern]

devil may cry on netflix

[hazy cloak]

Will i get banned if i post it? I just think it is a funny thing

[upper wyvern]

nah cause u dont see his willie

theres a meme of willy being naked actually

but since im not level 2 yet i cant send it lmao

[hazy cloak]

his booty is out😰

[upper wyvern]

yeaahh he got that cake

[hazy cloak]

i will post it in photography :>

[vapid hull]

Absolutely you WILL !

-# (not)

[young saffron]

he doesn't even have a willie

tragic

💔

[humble iris]

you are now

[upper wyvern]

oh thank you

[upper wyvern]

they took his willie...

[humble iris]

i thought we get image perms at level 3 😭

[hazy cloak]

Oh my gyat😱

[slim sequoia]

when did footprints appear after blood

[humble iris]

this has been here for a while im pretty sure

i didnt notice until a while later either

[slim sequoia]

tbh i did stab someone 50 times with a large pile of blood for that to happen (INGAME)

[spring brook]

is there anyway to get better at parrying other than just doing it or is there any secret to it

[brave basalt]

mirroring

ignore the clip

unrelated

[humble iris]

what happened to the map 😭

[brave basalt]

thats my DE

[spring brook]

move my sword into an opposite position (from my perspective) to the enemy?

[hazy cloak]

What how do you have the game so smooth

[brave basalt]

I keep it at the same position so it ends up getting blocked

[spring brook]

alright, thank you

[humble iris]

this is one strat

there are many more

[brave basalt]

like?

[humble iris]

like how clueless does it and aims for the blade

instead of the person actually attacking you

[brave basalt]

see if i did this the ai would go terminator and switch to a stab once i predict the close range low move

idk why it does this

[spring brook]

i do attack enemys with long weapons by just trying to destroy their blade till im close enough for it not to be an issue

[humble iris]

yeah ai is sometimes very unreadable

[brave basalt]

if i played like that i'd die all the time because theres not much of a chance hes gonna swing from that direction even tho hes aiming that way

[wind charm]

fuck yeah

[brave basalt]

unless i get lucky and get put with a dumbass ai

[humble iris]

his neck is in a world of fun

[humble iris]

i think the ai is like

the exact same for each one

i dont know though

[brave basalt]

no way

no i get different levels of ai all the time

[humble iris]

the only difference i really see between the ai i fight against is that some are very lenient and passive

while some are aggressive

and wildly swing chain attacks

[wind charm]

hell yeah

[brave basalt]

this wasnt actually ai this was a 1/100000 chance event where you get put in a multiplayer server against another player and i happened to get put up with john

no seriously tho wtf was this

[humble iris]

this was not ai

[brave basalt]

istg theres some secret multiplayer

[wind charm]

top 10 pant shid moment caught on camera

[humble iris]

they mirrored someone else's moves 😱

[soft osprey]

Did you know every Willie is unique and has their own “personality” in regards to how aggressive or skilled they are

If you didn’t, now you do

[humble iris]

riddle got the bad end of the stick

[brave basalt]

his arms moved so fast wtf

[soft osprey]

That’s why some are really good

And some are like toddlers

[brave basalt]

dude did a movement tech

[brave basalt]

I refuse to believe it was

[humble iris]

what if i was never actually good at half sword

[brave basalt]

i feel like a dev got on and trolled me

[humble iris]

and i was just fighting

terrible ai

hmm

[soft osprey]

Yes

[brave basalt]

yeah thats how i feel

but

i always get put up against tuff ai I feel

[brave basalt]

then i go to watch others clips and feel like

why is their ai so easy???

they're making you into something huge

[soft osprey]

Thats all you have to say?

What else should i say

[mental kelp]

Brother basically called himself John Alchemy

Way ahead of his time

[soft osprey]

“Thank you oh great and wise Moai for this new information I was not aware of. My life is now improved tenfold due to the pure genius that comes from your phenomenal brain. Truly, you are the greatest person to have ever graced this planet we call earth, which we should rename to Moai.”

If you don’t say this, dont come back into my chat

Your chat is general catfish

[humble iris]

HIS chat

[soft osprey]

MY chat is wherever I am at the moment

Man it’s good to be king

[dark folio]

Alright oh great and wise Moai. I will make sure to not upset you in the future

[mental kelp]

do u even play half sword 😭 🥀

[soft osprey]

..

Close enough

[dark folio]

?

[soft osprey]

I’ll allow it

[dark folio]

Alright

[soft osprey]

That felt passive aggressive

[rain sluice]

what have I missed?

[soft osprey]

Ok let me stop messing with you now

Before you think im serious

[dark folio]

The fall of constantinople

[rain sluice]

of course I did

[dark folio]

Never thought you were

[soft osprey]

You snooze you lose

I'm about to fight peasants with a big sword.

[shell bronze]

moai always serious when it comes around to abusing power

[soft osprey]

This is very fair

[dark folio]

This will be our 798th christmas without Genghis Khan

[soft osprey]

I do enjoy making the lessers suffer

[blazing snow]

game comes out in oct right

[shell bronze]

he cannot lock in for anything BUT demonstrating just how superior he is to the common man

[blazing snow]

im not insane

[soft osprey]

Unlikely

[rain sluice]

I kinda wish we had a vc here

[dark folio]

I hope not

[shell bronze]

expect nov or dec

[blazing snow]

alr

[shell bronze]

we do it's just not available for stinky pink roles

[dark folio]

There is one

[blazing snow]

i just remember someone telling me it comes out in the last bit of the year

[soft osprey]

We do but it’s locked behind level 3. Too many weirdo new people came into chat doing….awful things

[shell bronze]

that is true

quarter 4 of 2025

[rain sluice]

How long will level 3 take?

[blazing snow]

yea

[soft osprey]

If you do it in one sitting, 3 hours of chatting roughly

[shell bronze]

few days of active chatting

[dark folio]

Like 9 to 20 weeks

[shell bronze]

or what moai said if you really love this server

[soft osprey]

You get 3-6xp for one message every 60 seconds

[soft osprey]

You can check your rank and xp in #stat-rank-check using the /rank Willie bot command

[shell bronze]

i'm top 10 in this server

#tappedin

[soft osprey]

Imagine

Not being number 1 like me

[shell bronze]

the number 1 in question

[dark folio]

Isnt the willie bot just Mee6 in disguise

[shell bronze]

let me see where i am actually it's been a while

[soft osprey]

I think so yeah

Someone will pass me eventually, im sure…

[shell bronze]

the willie bot is our proprietary AI platform used to call you a buffoon

[soft osprey]

Hm

This is a great idea

[shell bronze]

oh i went up one rank

[shell bronze]

we need to put something that draws from the in-game insults

[soft osprey]

Just suggested it in mod stuff 😎

[dark folio]

Yeah

I love that part in the halfsword Movie where willie says "it's Halfswording time" and then halfswords all over the place

[young saffron]

It's the final countdown!

nah but what dis mean

[tough yew]

steam next fest

[young saffron]

ooh yeah

I forgot abt that

[supple ember]

2 more days!

[young saffron]

[tough yew]

Ye shall remember it now.

new gameplay trailer and a showcase is guaranteed

[humble iris]

early access teasers pretty sure

yeah what he said

[young saffron]

noice

[humble iris]

very nice

[supple ember]

They said on m00s stream they are still thinking whether they should or not since the release is so soon they might just wait
