halfsword-chat-⚔

[covert flare]

m00 is in my opinion the very best current halfsword player there is

[gleaming flower]

how does 30 frames feel compared to 120 frames?

like gameplaywise

[tough hollow]

90 frames

[gleaming flower]

????

[covert flare]

how does a broken down vw beetle feel compared to a ferrari 599xx?

[tough hollow]

bro isnt in the know

[covert flare]

its a whole new world tbh

[gleaming flower]

ok

[covert flare]

even 60 fps is a way better experience yk?

120 is the dream

30 is fine ig, i dont mind it

[gleaming flower]

i can only get 70-100 fps borderless on medium

with dx12

[covert flare]

thats great numbers

[gleaming flower]

halfsword enhancer as well

[covert flare]

dx 11 increases fps

[kindred cairn]

i think i get 70 normally and

like 50 in carnage

and stuff

brave stand is where things get messy

[gleaming flower]

fr

[amber crane]

have a date to launch it?:

[gleaming flower]

if my pc (im on a gaming laptop currently) works properly it prob gon reach 240 fps, my pc had all of its data erased due to a very bad virus

[covert flare]

before 2026

anytime from october to december it might release

but i smell a delay to q1 of 2026

[amber crane]

december 31st is a good one

[gleaming flower]

i put a new 4060 in the pc with 64 gigs of ram

[kindred cairn]

lowkey i want to cosplay as henry of skalitz in the early acess build

wonder if theyre gonna add hair

[covert flare]

we were meant to get a steam fest demo update for a week

but we didnt

kind of worrying

[kindred cairn]

TWINN

i have a 4060 with 16 gigs

[tough hollow]

they should keep willie bald

[kindred cairn]

of normal ram

and 8 VRAM

[covert flare]

they are actually, check #announcements there are people with hair

[gleaming flower]

insane, ddr5?

or ddr4

?

[kindred cairn]

no, ddr4

[tough hollow]

i have a 2014 msi laptiop

[gleaming flower]

should get the newer version

[kindred cairn]

nah

[gleaming flower]

insabe

[covert flare]

there are also pinned images here in this chat that talk about the early access additions

[kindred cairn]

im fine with my choices

[gleaming flower]

ok 👍👍

[kindred cairn]

just hdII is..

a bit..

hefty

but its like this for every damn PC so like

[gleaming flower]

what is objectivley better?
dx11 or dx12?

[kindred cairn]

ehh

dx12 looks way nicer

[covert flare]

smooth like butter

[kindred cairn]

dx11 looks like a desert idk

[covert flare]

dx 11 for pure performance and dx 12 for better graphics

[gleaming flower]

also is vulkan an option, my pc is going to run on vulkan

[covert flare]

nope

[kindred cairn]

i think i need more ram if i want dx12

[gleaming flower]

🙁

[plain token]

stabbed myself in the knee

[kindred cairn]

is the ram the problem of not bveing able to run dx12

or just

like

the whole thing in general

[gleaming flower]

i do that execpt i hit myself with a sword i throw

[covert flare]

now you cant be an adventurer like the dragonborn

[plain token]

dx12 is just ASS

[covert flare]

you should be able to run it but its not that much of a difference imo

[plain token]

gotta herd sheep

[kindred cairn]

i use reshade i cant even remember the difference how do i even turn this shit off bro

[gleaming flower]

dx11 and dx12 dont seem to have a difference in performance for me

[kindred cairn]

not that i dont like it

but like

i want to turn the shaders off sometimes yk

[kindred cairn]

except when it crashes in the abyss..

[plain token]

reshade on halfsword is crazy

[gleaming flower]

never does that in abyss, only baron

[covert flare]

or guard whiterun

[gleaming flower]

i always use resade

[plain token]

yes

[covert flare]

it fucked up my shadows so i stopped using it

[kindred cairn]

oh.

[covert flare]

dont ever download no reshade from the gas station

[kindred cairn]

the portuguese translation is so fucking stupid bro

[plain token]

i only use reshade on beamng cause without it looks like ass

[kindred cairn]

honestly i lowkey like reapshade

it makes it less

uhh

yellow

[tough hollow]

i prefer the piss filter

[kindred cairn]

the mgrr filter

[tough hollow]

breaking bad filter

[supple ember]

M00 is the best at polearms, not the BEST.

[kindred cairn]

they should make a jetstream sam hair style

[amber crane]

the boss's sword touch my character and turn him in 2

[covert flare]

i feel he is objectively the best, maybe someone like clueless and ovrdth right behind

[tough hollow]

👽

[covert flare]

then john longeswarde

[gleaming flower]

i fr think halfsword is my comfort game
i like killing people and destroying stuff
people playground? mods are making it hard to run for some reason
dying light? repetitive killing and i have over 543 hours
but half sword is HARD, and AWESOME cuz like i like to try to learn hard things, and swords are also cool

[tough hollow]

and then me

ppg so tuff

[gleaming flower]

fr

[tough hollow]

i have like 647 mods

[gleaming flower]

i used to have 700+ mods

[tough hollow]

zamn

[kindred cairn]

half sword is a chill game to mess around with

[covert flare]

frfr, btw i have a question, two actually

[kindred cairn]

bro reshade can never manage to load in

one fuckin thing

[supple ember]

Personally I would say that Fizzlepop is the best current Longsword player, with others like clueless and Coolface. OVRDTH used to be up there but he isn’t active anymore so I can’t consider him.

[kindred cairn]

like just one

[covert flare]

first, do you use human tiers reforged and beyond nowhere?

[tough hollow]

i used to use human teirs

[sleek gull]

https://tenor.com/view/psyduck-oh-stop-pokemon-blush-gif-8687743

[gleaming flower]

i use human tiers, but whats beyond nowhere

[tough hollow]

but the mechanics giv eme headaches

[covert flare]

i have not seen much from fizzeplop recently, but i remember he was great

[tough hollow]

and idk what beyoung nowehre is

[covert flare]

how in the living hell do you make it work, i tried and tried and tried and the mod does not show

[supple ember]

…. He posts here pretty often

[tough hollow]

idunno

[covert flare]

i am generally in general

[kindred cairn]

[kindred cairn]

[supple ember]

Just stab

[tough hollow]

no

[supple ember]

https://tenor.com/view/kill-stab-thinking-arya-got-gif-14033550

[covert flare]

its the sequel to human tiers reforged

[tough hollow]

slash supremisist

[covert flare]

yes it has lore

kinda cool, if it WORKED

[gleaming flower]

guys, how many of y'all are a jack of all trades?
also if a jack of all trades manages to train all of the trades to excellent, then how powerful would they be?

[tough hollow]

bruh what do you think

[gleaming flower]

pretty powerful

[kindred cairn]

i got the goedendag

ggs

[tough hollow]

golden dong

[supple ember]

I’m a jack of longswords, as any person should be

[covert flare]

idk bro im not called jack

[kindred cairn]

im a jack of NTOHING bro

[gleaming flower]

apparently i had this in my subscribed

i didnt even know i had it

[covert flare]

im only not considerably a jack of all trades because the billhook exists

[gleaming flower]

like buh

[rotund blade]

I just sliced metal

[gleaming flower]

possible

[covert flare]

you need human tiers reforged to enter the mod though

[tough hollow]

bro just lsliced metal

[covert flare]

something of some zothra soul or some shit i dunno

[gleaming flower]

i did some zothra stuff

got him to the kinda true zothra form

[covert flare]

check the steam page it explains it all

[kindred cairn]

fatal error

i may have forgotten to turn blood off

[covert flare]

damn

[kindred cairn]

fatal error with the golden dong

honestly it makes me happy that the game already runs kinda great with NO optimization

[gleaming flower]

i wonder what would happen if optimization was added

how much faster

how much smoother

[kindred cairn]

alot

[gleaming flower]

ok

[kindred cairn]

im looking forward to the dequitem forest map

as i like to call it

i wonder if its gonna be as blue as dequitem's videos are

[gleaming flower]

why tf is mem reducer not working

[tough hollow]

im looking forward to the workshop

[kindred cairn]

wait they are gonna add like,

[gleaming flower]

fr fr

[kindred cairn]

the crossbows

[tired stream]

shield bashes are fun to pull off

[kindred cairn]

and the maps

right?

[supple ember]

Dequitem reshade pack coming soon????!!!

[gleaming flower]

yes

[kindred cairn]

or are they jsut messing around with their skills

that would be so cool

[gleaming flower]

my fellow's

what if i has thrown myself into the sun

what shall i do?

[kindred cairn]

what is the blue fog in dequitem called bro

is it like a cold weather

or somethin

what is that mist usually called

[covert flare]

fog

[kindred cairn]

blue fog?

[covert flare]

just fog

some places get a blueish hue depending on the sun positioning and shadows, and also a bit of editing from dequitem probably

[kindred cairn]

huh

i see

well i like it idk why

its so yummy

ive been searching for a shader pack like that to use

in the funny block game

aswell as this one

[true wind]

Just came here to say the final challenge is dog shit and needs a full overhaul before I would spend $2 on this game.

Even without all the plethora of bugs still in the game the whole design just sucks. I'm rolling dice every time to see if I even get a playable weapon or do I have to fight sword Willie with a butter knife.

Add some element of choice to it so it vaguely resembles a rouge like because current iteration is trash. After every round you should get the option for either a random piece of armor, or weapon of a chosen class.

Currently it's just dice rolling until you get a playable weapon. This shit is trash

[kindred cairn]

bliss works quite well

[covert flare]

play on medium halfsword and it is very blue too

[gleaming flower]

dx11 makes me run WORSE

[kindred cairn]

wym

[covert flare]

https://tenor.com/view/skillissue-skill-issue-gif-22125481

[gleaming flower]

how it make you run better

[kindred cairn]

like medium difficulty?

[tough hollow]

treadmill

[covert flare]

agreed though it needs a rework

[gleaming flower]

im talking about dx11 and dx12

[tough hollow]

treadmill

[kindred cairn]

the best weapon of all

hoe

[gleaming flower]

dx11 makes the game run worse, and it looks worse

for me

[tough hollow]

hoe is best because righ thanded

[opal bramble]

Why is my half sword crashing when someone hits the ground

[kindred cairn]

lowkey bro i agree on your opinion but thats just

like

oh

[true wind]

I got sassy but then reeled it back in

[kindred cairn]

type shit

[covert flare]

be free we dont mind

[kindred cairn]

yea bro i get you

[covert flare]

tis the land of the free

[kindred cairn]

i get mad too sometimes and it just lowkey

makes me crash out

[covert flare]

and jokes aside i also dislike UC

[kindred cairn]

fr shit is so

[true wind]

It just feels too random and luck based

[kindred cairn]

bad

[covert flare]

you will get it after a few tries, but rng does not help at all sometimes

[tough hollow]

what is uc

[shell bronze]

just got back from a car crash time to keep playing half sword

[covert flare]

short for Ultimate Challenge

[covert flare]

what the fuck bro

explain

[shell bronze]

got t boned at intersection in one of my toyotas at like 40mph because this guy ran a red light

[chilly scroll]

JUST DOWNLOADED THE DEMO THIS GAME IS FIRE

[shell bronze]

lowkey bruised up and hurt but we ball lmao i've been wanting to upgrade from that thing for a while

roommate drove my bmw to me and i just got home so i'm gonna keep playing half sword

#goated

[true wind]

I wish there was some kind of choice element like I said. When you're climbing the ladder, you can choose your weapon and you can even choose which type of event you want to do next. Ultimate challenge is just random doo doo. It starts with hopefully not losing a limb during the initial knife fight and if you can survive long enough to get half way decent gear it's cool but I just fucking halberdes while holding a dagger sometimes

[kindred cairn]

they need to add healing to UC

[covert flare]

nuh uh

now thats a skill issue

[chilly scroll]

where i can find the complete controls list hahah im discovering by random clicking

[kindred cairn]

i cant handle the golden dong because some guy poked my finger

[covert flare]

jesus christ are you really ok?

[kindred cairn]

just a while ago

[shell bronze]

i can walk and talk so i should be fine

[covert flare]

left mouse button right hand, right mouse button left hand, move the mouse to punch or slash, shift to run, e to pick up with right hand and q for left hand, space to kick

[shell bronze]

i got hit passenger side anyways so most of my problems rn are just the concussion

[covert flare]

have fun

[covert flare]

you should go to a doctor yk

[sand herald]

max in-game sens and high dpi

[gleaming flower]

i do that, but the char always doesnt fucking turn

its annoying

as hell

[covert flare]

me when the neck-breaking poleaxe willie of doom senses my sins

[reef vector]

High sensitivity I assume

[sand herald]

high FPS seems to also affect the physics

are you holding shift while turning? that's what i usually do

[gleaming flower]

i get 70 fps

and yes i hold shift

[sand herald]

i'm running medium for better performance so i'm usually getting around 240 fps which makes things pretty janky

[shell bronze]

annoying ass grappler

[gleaming flower]

medium is pretty good

[gleaming flower]

fr fr

[shell bronze]

had to finish what i started else i can't sleep at night

[shell bronze]

[shell bronze]

15 second katana brave stand

this thing is fucking bonkers jesus christ

[gleaming flower]

[ivory spruce]

those screenshots and videos are most likely months old at this point

[slender zephyr]

Anyone got tips on parrying

I always get the timing wrong

[mental kelp]

One thing is that it seems like you have to go very fast into it but it’s a lot better to go softly. Twitching causes floppiness, and usually it’ll go out of the parrying window even if a little bit

So keep it tight and in that window, go to into hastily but soft so that it’s not erratic

[slender zephyr]

Thanks ill try now

So what your saying is dont go to far trying to parry that you go into the swinging stance

[mental kelp]

Yea

It doesn’t take a lot of movement to get into the right position

It’s kind of hard to see how good a defense is with the third person so it can psych you out a bit

[barren vine]

what the name of the spear with the buncha spikes in it

[mental kelp]

Plançon

[barren vine]

and what's this one called again

[static spoke]

hello

[sour galleon]

the last time frank has said anything was in over 2 months ago 😭

[dark folio]

Kaboom

[slender zephyr]

Diabolical

[keen gate]

fuck the ultimate challenge dawg 😭 ts so hard

[restive barn]

more messer stuff

that was easy

[severe mesa]

do you all play the demo or there is a beta ?

[restive barn]

demo

lmao

the mail shirt and the messers are a mod

[rapid quest]

where can i get the mods?

[severe mesa]

the game is great

hope it comes soon

[ivory spruce]

2 months

[severe mesa]

nice

[uneven adder]

I cant

The ultimate challenge is impossible for me because my game keeps crashing mid run

Idk how I did the first time

[inner jasper]

is itt possible to play these updates or is it only possible to play the demo

[wooden socket]

what updates

[inner jasper]

like all the things they are showing and on steam

[wooden socket]

thats not out yet

[inner jasper]

so its only possible to play demo thats it

[wooden socket]

yes

[inner jasper]

ok

[radiant glacier]

this guy is going to find the legendary 0.0001% loot chance of finding the real game in the files somewhere

[placid coyote]

are you using gruesome

[uneven adder]

Maybe

[placid coyote]

lower the gore, it might help

[uneven adder]

No gore... 🥺

[uneven adder]

Maybe I should change it from cinimatic to medium as well?

[placid coyote]

could try, but for me it was the gore setting

[uneven adder]

Ok, at least I get to decapitate people with good graphics

[radiant glacier]

your game might be running out of memory due to computer limitations

[uneven adder]

I have 32 gb of ram, but I do have 50 chrome tabs open

[solemn holly]

if you're getting "FATAL ERROR" it's a bug with the game

[restive garnet]

[uneven adder]

I just got three spear wielders as a battle axe enjoyer

Does lowering the gore make the game easier?

[torn narwhal]

drip ?

[uneven adder]

[torn narwhal]

blue

[radiant glacier]

the regular spears arent a problem for me, not even the spiked poles but the guys who hold the one handed spear with the shield get me killed no matter what

at least with the two handeds you can just half sword and force their weapon up and out of the way but the little guys are so nasty

[torn narwhal]

i hope they add pikes

[uneven adder]

Like I said, axe enjoyer, and for some reason I cant go side ways, and did he make A HALF SWORD REFFRENCE!!!

[torn narwhal]

in 1 on 1 combat pikemen would get owned pretty consistently

at least with the tech demo combat

[uneven adder]

Like the technique were you use half your sword, that also references halfsword, like the game.

[torn narwhal]

i hope they add mordhau reference soon

[short trail]

yes

it makes death slower and less likely for both you and enemies

on max gore you can split people in half with a light tap

[uneven adder]

[torn narwhal]

stabbing with estoc is really satisfying

teehee

[edgy eagle]

when will they fix the "fatal error" crash

i was doing so well on abyss

[torn narwhal]

i think disabling blood fixes it supposedly

[edgy eagle]

it doesnt

ive tried

it just lowers the chance of it happening

but it still happens

its been happening for so long im surprised they havent fixed it

[torn narwhal]

well the tech demo isnt exactly proactively updated

they're working on the ea build

[edgy eagle]

a new build or just the 1 u can "sign up" to download

[torn narwhal]

what

[edgy eagle]

when i downloaded the game there was a section under download that u had to click and then it went into ur steam library

if u didnt do that it was literally just abyss

[torn narwhal]

yeah idk anything about that

as far as the ea build, it's not clear what exactly it will look like

early access is anticpated ~Q4 2025

[edgy eagle]

hope they dont change it too much, like combat and gore wise

[torn narwhal]

i would assume it's changing a lot

[edgy eagle]

i like the funky movement on the game

[torn narwhal]

as much as wacky is funny i dont think that's the design intent of the game

so i think it'll be toned down

for more realism

[edgy eagle]

if that was the case i think they wouldve just done that while releasing the demo

[torn narwhal]

tbf historical plate armour combat looks wacky as is so i assume it'll still be a bit silly

[torn narwhal]

realistic movement is more technically challenging especially as the characters are piloted by people with mouse and keyboard

i mean you can read the steam description

doesnt seem like their design intent is wacky silly movement

[edgy eagle]

big problem with this tho is theyve kind of branded it as that with the demo being out for just a bit more then 2 years

[torn narwhal]

have they though

[edgy eagle]

they have, like really have. i literally downloaded the game because of the movement and gore, it was 1 of the 1st games i downloaded once i got my current pc which could handle the amount of gore it had

[torn narwhal]

idk i feel like most of the engagement i see with this game is centralised on the goriness more than the fact that the movement is a bit wonky

even "funny" stuff like the roundhouse kicks which i kind of doubt will be in the game long-term aren't REALLY that popular

[edgy eagle]

oh them, i havent really bothered trying to learn how to do that

id rather just batter them

[limpid anchor]

biggest problem with movement is prolly how wonky they walk/run

its unique tho and i like it

[weak osprey]

I love this game’s brutality

[dull iron]

and the physics

that lead to brutality

[weak osprey]

Ye

[dull iron]

if you had predetermined animations it would be much more predictable and wouldn't be that funny

[restive barn]

hi chat

[dull iron]

hi chrome

[novel spear]

hear me out: you’re a decent swordsman if you use the thrust technique for non related thrusting actions

[weak osprey]

hello chromium

[novel spear]

I LOVE YOU CHROME

[dull iron]

and you can do some specific movements not like other games. hmp gladio mori

no

it wasn't gladio mori

yes it was

i had to look in steam

[novel spear]

i wish we could actually do the real zwerchau move in half sword

[weak osprey]

Peak game

[dull iron]

and pick it up in mordhau with armored enemies

[dull iron]

yes but i can't do some moves

[idle crane]

Mordhau is planned

[dull iron]

epic

[weak osprey]

Heck same

[dull iron]

it would be much more easy to complete the game with under tier, i can't do anything with a t3 sword against a t7 but i can use my fists

[dull iron]

and this is free, gladio mori is 8dls

[weak osprey]

Why does gladio mori have to be paid

[dull iron]

(i can't pay it)

[wind flare]

how does trhe ultimate challenge abyss work

[restive barn]

if you die you go to the abyss

[weak osprey]

(me too bratuha)

[wind flare]

no if ur in the menu on ultimate challenge u go some abyss that doesnt stop

[dull iron]

if you're in the ultimate challenge you don't go to abyss

[weak osprey]

One of them has a long ass sword

[wind flare]

theres a button to go to it anyway

and ive fouight the knight boss

[restive barn]

actually its just a normal zweihander lol

[wind flare]

inside abyss

lol

[weak osprey]

alr

[restive barn]

the blade is like 40 cm longer than normal tho

[dull iron]

i didn't knew that, i close the abyss bc it makes my pc start to get smelly like when i get distracted and i burn my eggs (i shouldn't play half sword while i'm cooking in the morning)

[wind flare]

its js a score that keeps g oing higher and higher

50 for each kill it seems i think

i was at 3k then died

idk how far it goes

[dull iron]

you killed 60 willies?

[wind flare]

its like the ultimate challenge

they keep getting stronger

the further u go

[dull iron]

i can barely do the ultimate challenge with fists and some armor

but 60 is impressive

[sudden ravine]

i hope ea releases in november bro 💔

surely not december

[dull iron]

nah i'd win

[wind flare]

that one is easy

[dull iron]

yes

i've killed it so many times

[dull iron]

a good left hand punch and he is sleeping

[wind flare]

check dms

[small dove]

poor guy

[sudden ravine]

thats gotta hurt

[small dove]

he has a tail

its a sword

oof

[sudden ravine]

what is willie tryna do

[small dove]

oops

[gusty night]

what are yalls tips for the first grete champion im coming back after not playing for a while

[merry junco]

the best of my takedowns so far

[tight isle]

who needs armor... or clothes or a sword

[sleek gull]

I grab the knife in the middle of the arena, and stab the hell out of him after baiting him to swing at me

[tight isle]

hes very stupid and u can bait his attacks very easily and run up and shank him

[fiery vessel]

just grab the knife and get it in his stomach, works super effective for me

[novel spear]

quick question

had anybody every tried to recreate a star wars fight scene

in half sword

[gusty night]

hes just too fast the moment he swings its already half way through me

its just instant death

[fiery vessel]

then bait him like the others said, also good

i guess its just luck based on how fast he swings

[novel spear]

idk if theres a candlestick in the fight but if its there use it

second best choice is the knife

grab him and stab em like a londoner

Oooh

Since it's Halloween

[wheat gust]

i wish ovrdth's loadout saver allowed you to save weapon and willie sizes

like i really want to make a giant guy loadout

and a tiny guy loadout

i also want to make a really small pitchfork and falchion so i can look like i have normal food utensils

[tight isle]

i finally did it

[tight isle]

i killed myself after throwing my own sword

[wheat gust]

yeah

but it doesnt actually work that well

like you cant actualyl save it as a loadout i think

[round plinth]

Guys why can't I play anything other than AByss?
It's the only mode that shows up in the menu

[wheat gust]

you know what would be really funny?

if anything you grabbed could count as an item for your loadout

[soft osprey]

Interesting, interesting..have you tried pressing Play

[wheat gust]

so you could like grab a willie's head and save the loadout so you just always have a willie to help you in battle

[round plinth]

Lol I am blind lmao

[soft osprey]

Not the first and won’t be the last

[tight isle]

Im the greatest half sworder of all time i can kill myself with ease

How it fgeels to swallow a piece of a potato chip vertically

[round stone]

Looks like fun

[round stone]

How can that even happen lol

[fierce wedge]

its a 5% chance with every purchased bag of chips

[wheat gust]

and it feels like its actively clawing its way out of your throat when you accidentally swallow a piece vertically

[gusty night]

man this first champion is bullshit

[wheat gust]

either that or when you swallow your water weird and it creates the worst chest pain known to man

[quiet ferry]

Swallowing something when you didn’t chew enough

[wheat gust]

TW: Gore

[wheat gust]

my back is too big brah

[quiet ferry]

You don’t have to warn about gore gng

[wheat gust]

i know

[quiet ferry]

Do you see what happens here

[round stone]

Never happened to me... that 5% is getting closer

[wheat gust]

i added the warning as a joke

[round stone]

I fear that it will happen when im 60 yo and senile

That damn vertical chip will be my doom

[quiet ferry]

So like
Grab the knife
Run into the guy
And stab him a bunch
Or
Big candlestick

[wheat gust]

candlestick is peak

[round stone]

Grab the knife and charge, head first

[gusty night]

it prob my settings the whole game feels sluggish and im having weird issues

[round stone]

What is he gonna do, dodge? lmao

[quiet ferry]

He’s gonna like

[wheat gust]

you either [title card] it and stab the guyu in the gut which for soem reason hurts alot or bash him and trap him with the 4 pronged side which for some reason makes people bleed

[quiet ferry]

Spin around and whirlwind and cleave you in half

[fierce wedge]

they should give the ai the ability to use the dodge mechanic

but then just

leave it out of patch notes

[wheat gust]

i find it really weird that sometimes when you hit someone in their hat it bleeds, its like they have one long horn just to wear that hat

[shell bronze]

they do dodge

just not very well

[fierce wedge]

they suck at it though

[quiet ferry]

Make every axe and buckler user invincible

[round stone]

Dodge, jump, and spin kick

And Judo throws, perchance

[wheat gust]

how do i do a takedown

[fierce wedge]

a spinkick would be

craz.e.,

[quiet ferry]

Ummm uhhh umm

There’s a learning curve

[torn narwhal]

what is it 2005

[fierce wedge]

press e

[torn narwhal]

are you not allowed to show women dying in vvideo games

[quiet ferry]

So like

[quiet ferry]

For a basic thing I do

[shell bronze]

not my jurisdiction and not a good look to continue arguing this topic

[wheat gust]

no animals either

[quiet ferry]

Grab his foot with both hands

[torn narwhal]

women being grouped in with children as some sort of bridge too far is really weird

[wheat gust]

besides it seems quite rude to hurt people

[fierce wedge]

nuh uh

[shell bronze]

women and children are a perfectly reasonable line to not cross

[torn narwhal]

literally fucking why

children is fine

[round stone]

what about chairwheel old male willie

[round stone]

[quiet ferry]

While squatting
And then
Kick and uncrouch
Keep kicking to gain height
And then drop

[torn narwhal]

i get why people don't want to depict children dying in video games that's fine, that's also a legal problem

women is literally just misogyny

[fierce wedge]

ehhhh

i think its reasonabl

[torn narwhal]

why

[sleek gull]

Here is a simpler answer.

In the 15th century, they did not send women and/or children into battle. So in this game, they are not sent in to battle either.

Case Closed.

[quiet ferry]

⁉️

[wheat gust]

grr how dare the law not allow people to represent women getting brutalized in half sword grr i want to decapitate a woman grrr

[round stone]

I just imagined a Willie in a wheel chair, with two plancon attached to it

[shell bronze]

we have had this discussion many times, and i would rather not have this take place again.
this is my final and firm request for you (and all other parties) to stop discussing this topic

[fierce wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/america-gif-12123366897022762737

[torn narwhal]

this is actually ahistoric and there are numerous instances of women being combatants in the 15th century

[tight isle]

i want my child soldiers

[novel spear]

this aint that samurai liking thats just average HEMA

[round stone]

Medieval mecha

[soft osprey]

People are fuckin weirdos. They won’t have women because people are gonna be fuckin weird about it in a game like this, beyond the historical accuracy part of it. Literally the first time I saw someone ask for women it was so they could cut their clothes off. The next one was because they specifically wanted to kill women

[wheat gust]

what about children

[sleek gull]

Outliers aren't justifications.

[wheat gust]

god knows what they wanna do to children npcs

[quiet ferry]

I’m very sure it was really uncommon

[fierce wedge]

this was what i wanted to say but i didnt know how to word it

[soft osprey]

Because they’re fuckin weirdos

[novel spear]

why do you want WOMEN in a MEDIEVAL KILLING GAME

[wheat gust]

[torn narwhal]

I'm sorry literally fucking what

we already have a bunch of pretty obscure weapons that weren't regularly used in the game

[tight isle]

what about just the player character tho

[torn narwhal]

lord knows the combinations of equipment that are going to be common are nonsense

[wheat gust]

besides halfsword isnt really historically accurate

[novel spear]

i love willie

[devout fjord]

i gave him neckhurt premium

[soft osprey]

This conversation doesnt need to continue. Women and children will not be added and it isn’t a discussion we need to have. The reasons are very obvious, let’s move on

[wheat gust]

like its mostly accurate

[torn narwhal]

people's appeal to a sort of pseudo-historicity when it comes to inclusion of women is kind of ridiculous.

[tough yew]

adding women would serve no purpose but to entertain weirdos that are already acting weird to killing male npcs

[shell bronze]

ok

[soft osprey]

Move on please

[tight isle]

uh oh we got the whole squad in here

[ivory spruce]

https://tenor.com/view/melon-fall-water-bed-gif-21555765

as far as people being WEIRD about it, sexualisation of women is a seperate issue, and i don't think being exclusionary is the solution
