[toxic lance]

[fallen glacier]

[ashen sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/halfsword-half-sword-willie-half-sword-willie-half-gif-12943834111818676135

[tiny lion]

Half sword finally shows most of the specs required on its steam page!! DOES THAT MEAN WE ARE CLOSER TO RELEASE??!?!?!??!

[ashen sluice]

??? Omg

[tiny lion]

I've been waiting too long, I check the stream page like once a week atleast, it never showed the specs

[ashen sluice]

Rtx 4070 is recommended-

Oh god

Not me with 5060 ti

[slow anchor]

well yeah

[ashen sluice]

15 GB

Damnnn

[fallen glacier]

that's bigger than sekiro

[toxic lance]

is it actually gonna release on my birthday what the fuck

[tiny lion]

When's your birthday

[toxic lance]

2 days time xd

4070 recommended goodness gracious

[ashen sluice]

Yep

[toxic lance]

my puny little 4060,,,,,

[ashen sluice]

5060 ti, i7 8700

Damn

I need a ryzen 4070 for this..

[near grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/punpun-gif-14067169711777553031

This must be a devilish trick

[toxic lance]

i5 12600K wins again

[timid jewel]

i think my I7 11700 and 4070ti super should be fine

[toxic lance]

My gpu is only mildly under the recommended, this is acceptable

[ashen sluice]

Id just get the 9070 xt thank you...

[red inlet]

I LOVE BREAKING THEIR LEGS BY REPEATEDLY KICKING IT AND BASHING IT

[ashen sluice]

Me too

[red inlet]

BUT NOT TO THE POINT THEY SURRENDER SO I CAN SEE THEM LIMPING AND TRYING TO GET UP

[ashen sluice]

Willies are so fun to beat

[near grotto]

We never saw the signs

[fallen glacier]

lol

[red inlet]

ITS EVEN BETTER IF THEY CONTINUE TO FIGHT

[tiny lion]

Will a quadro p4000 be good?

[ashen sluice]

I like to decapitate them honestly

Its funner

[red inlet]

wheres the fun in that

[toxic lance]

Im a big fan of the thrust into the chest myself

[red inlet]

they immediately drop to the ground

or die

[ashen sluice]

💀

[red inlet]

you have to make it suffer

[toxic lance]

This guy likes making his Willies suffer

[tiny lion]

Yes or no?

[fallen glacier]

so who is Ivan? Is that Willie's old name? I see that name in the files sometimes

[ashen sluice]

Okay quick question, do you think an intel pentium can run that?

[ashen sluice]

Ivan is the commoner boss i think

[tiny lion]

Well I just looked it up and it says im way over the minimal and like 4x lower than recommended

And considering i play fallout vr on my pc, id assume I can run halfsword when it full releases still, I play it rn on high graphics

[ashen sluice]

...you need a 9070 xt

[ashen sluice]

Are you running fallout 2

[tiny lion]

...did you not read what I just said

Fallout 4 vr

[ashen sluice]

Mm

[toxic lance]

God the mention of intel pentium,,,, makes me shudder thinking back to trying to run games on a shitty pentium integrated graphics laptop

[ashen sluice]

Lmao same here, running roblox at 30 fps

Though it was like

A really old laptipp

Why are they charging 13k for an intel pentium?

???

[toxic lance]

I was playing team fortress 2 at a cool clean crisp 50fps with occasional full 2 second stutters

csgo at like, 40fps

God bless intel pentium for the memories 🙏

[ashen sluice]

❤️

[tiny lion]

I used to play halfsword on a amd rx580💀

[ashen sluice]

Its okay they list that as the bare minimum specs in steam

[tiny lion]

Are you implying the the rx580 is better than the Nvidia quadro p4000?

Without a doubt

[ashen sluice]

Okay i just hope you can run halfsword at at least 50 fps

[thick torrent]

when is halfsword coming out

when is halfsword coming out

[ashen sluice]

February 23rd

[thick torrent]

[ashen sluice]

Nah

[thick torrent]

[ashen sluice]

Yes

Ping all mods to ask if its true, theyd love that

[thick torrent]

how much will it be

cost

[ashen sluice]

2 doubloons

[thick torrent]

usd dollors pls

[hasty bloom]

[thick torrent]

will the full game be on epic games store and steam

[ashen sluice]

1500 usd

[ashen sluice]

Probably on ue5

[toxic lance]

Given they've updated the specs on the steam store page, I'd wager soon...

[tiny lion]

R u tryna say the rx580 is better than the quadro p4000?

[toxic lance]

Intel Pentium sweeps

[ashen sluice]

No? I dont think ive said that

Im just saying that because its in the mid range tier, i hope its enough

[tiny lion]

Well unlike you good sir, I do not have money to out into a pc like that, so im gonna make it work

If I have to play on medium graphics so be it

[tiny lion]

But as of now high runs at 80 fps

So id be surprised

[tiny lion]

🤣😂

[ashen sluice]

Me neither im poor too lmao

[tiny lion]

Bros tb good luck wish you the best with that mid range pc whats your gpu/cpu

[ashen sluice]

[hasty bloom]

[rapid pond]

Bro you threw a whole chunk of metal that aint no dagger

Guys throat is slit in the 4th dimention

[vital perch]

[rapid pond]

Doing the helicopter with your willie just to miss and then hit that leg shot is insane

You fumbled and instantly got forgotten

[vital perch]

AUGH

[royal stag]

i highkey just wanna pop a cap in fellas 😭

[vital perch]

there are gun mods, but people who made them are forbidden from publishing them by the half sword developers

[rapid pond]

Cant wait for ea's splitscreen pvp to drop an emote after brutally anhilating my girfriend and then anhilating her in half sword

[hasty drum]

ah

[rapid pond]

Probably between 20-20000

[vital perch]

february/march 2026

[sleek gull]

[vital perch]

i can't tell you

[cobalt turtle]

[rapid pond]

[fallen glacier]

is there a way to play the playtest maps in the demo

[vital perch]

no

[naive granite]

there is only a demo right now

[naive granite]

15 dollars

and a quarter

dont forget the quarter

[naive granite]

what the hell is even this

[naive granite]

sleeper agent activation video

what no update does to a man

[buoyant basin]

is there a exact date on when half sword will come out

[icy knot]

nope

[buoyant basin]

aw

[icy knot]

jsut Q1 i believe

which means jan-march

[buoyant basin]

what does that mean

o ok

what does d1 mean

[icy knot]

idk

prolly day 1

like the first day its out

when was d1 mentioned?

[slim ether]

Sometimes I just fall in half when the Sythe guy looks at me

[icy knot]

like, get split in two?

[buoyant basin]

just go to steam and it says planned relesed date q1

[icy knot]

Q1 means January-March

[buoyant basin]

o ok

[slim ether]

yep, two halves of what was once a whole

[icy knot]

so not an exact release date

[icy knot]

are you running high graphics`?

[slim ether]

yeah

[buoyant basin]

also my game crashes a shat tun how can i fix it

[icy knot]

try turning them a bit down, or turn down the level of gore

and then try again

[slim ether]

k

[icy knot]

prolly just the pc not being able to handle the amount of blood

so try turning down graphics or gore

[buoyant basin]

ok ty

[stone flare]

is it possible that they put hs on geforce now 🙁

my computer is a goddamn potato

[naive granite]

probably

when ea releases

it will get lots of hype since its been milked a lot

[stone flare]

and the demo too?

[naive granite]

demo will be discontinued after ea releases %90

thats what they did with the older demo and the playtest

new version = old version gets removed

[stone flare]

oh

I runned halfsword and it bluescreened my laptop lmao

[plucky narwhal]

Brooo make a tutorial

[vital perch]

one day

[toxic lance]

clean, love swings like this

[rocky tulip]

when does the game will multiplayer

[potent obsidian]

and that day is now

dang

[vital perch]

[vital perch]

[rocky tulip]

[potent obsidian]

uh, you're 6 hours ahead of me then, its 4 pm for me

[hasty drum]

Someone make this but its Willie and the knuckles say "half sword (the day after today)"

[ashen sluice]

get up willy

[fallen glacier]

what is this full wooden axe looking weapon called

[hybrid gale]

i remember that someone made a way to play the old versions but i dont remember how

[hybrid gale]

that is a hoe

[ashen sluice]

shovel i think

[hybrid gale]

no shovel has metal tip

[distant patrol]

whats the highest abyss score yall gotten

[hybrid gale]

idk like 3000?

not really sure

[ashen sluice]

that would be paddle then

[distant patrol]

calm calm

[hybrid gale]

ah makes sens

[ashen sluice]

heh ball peen hammer

[hybrid gale]

hehe

ball peen hammer

hehe

[fallen glacier]

1500 I think, somewhere around there. Been playing abyss all day. Can usually cheese the first 3 bosses with the pitchfork by just running at them with it extended out

[distant patrol]

thats calm

[hybrid gale]

yeah thats what i normally do

candlestick is underrated

[naive granite]

if you havent uninstalled you could play them

[ashen sluice]

man i love mrzacnono

[naive granite]

me too

[hybrid gale]

you can beat willies across the room with like no consequenses

[fallen glacier]

true. There is some weapon referred to internally as shovel though, I'll have to look and see which it was again

[distant patrol]

hopefully i get 10k in abyss on this run

[hybrid gale]

ye just the one that looks like a shovel

[fallen glacier]

the itch.io version?

[naive granite]

thats too old,there was a demo and a playtest after that

[ashen sluice]

willie no please i have no weapon

[hybrid gale]

the old playtest and demo

[naive granite]

my personal favorite is still the playtest

[hybrid gale]

ye i liked it but i think this is a bit bigger and more fun

ive been playing since it was in like the first demo phase

when guts and eyeballs were still a thing

it used to be way more gory

[distant patrol]

ive fought the baron 2 times this abyss run

[ashen sluice]

i hope the new one has playtest gore but better

[distant patrol]

i hate him

[hybrid gale]

ye hes not nice

[naive granite]

i think ea will be the most gory ever

[hybrid gale]

beat him across the head until he falls over then beat his knees until they bread

break

[hybrid gale]

i hope so

the gore on this demo is wack

[ashen sluice]

ea? like in the company?

[hybrid gale]

early access

[ashen sluice]

oh

[hybrid gale]

you lose an arm to like a tap on the wrist with the flat side of the blade if u have it turned all the way up

[naive granite]

you die when the blade touches your body lmao

[hybrid gale]

i only play half gore because of that it was too easy to get cut in half by anythung

[hybrid gale]

exactly

[naive granite]

gore is the difficulty meter,i have turned it down a lot and the gore is still the same

thats meant for difficulty

not the gore

i suppose

[hybrid gale]

ooooooohhhhhhhhhh

wait but at minimum gore stuff doesnt like cut it just bruses

bruises?

idk how to spell

[fallen glacier]

the playtest and demo are on steamdb but seems they can't be downloaded without access/license/whatever

[hybrid gale]

bro hurry up already you been typing for an hour

[fallen glacier]

tragic really

[hybrid gale]

[ashen sluice]

[fallen glacier]

[ashen sluice]

[toxic lance]

[hybrid gale]

so that answers my question

[slim ether]

what is women?

[ashen sluice]

blood tipped adze

[hybrid gale]

not sure but im told they ruined COD

[hybrid gale]

👆

[ashen sluice]

i love women, they're cool, but i personally am into men so

[hybrid gale]

i'm training my willie to have a smaller hitbox

[hybrid gale]

good

[lyric junco]

if there is less skin there is less skin to hit

[hybrid gale]

yes

true

[ashen sluice]

please do not fist your willie, he would not be very happy.

[hybrid gale]

https://tenor.com/view/shut-the-fuck-up-stfu-frustrated-gif-4300613

[brisk oak]

[brisk oak]

Oh noi

[ashen sluice]

im so fucking scared.

i forgopt the guy inj the back just staring

[brisk oak]

yall are ahh at the game bruh

[ashen sluice]

"hyperragebait"

[brisk oak]

what does that mean

[wheat leaf]

Shieet man #1 Willie’s here

[brisk oak]

can confirm am best at game

am john halfsword

(trust)

[brisk oak]

then it worked lmao

[ashen sluice]

okay this willie is built different why is he still fighting with a sword in his head

[wheat leaf]

Nah you def not John halfsword. More like John halfass or sumn

John halfwit perhaps

[brisk oak]

brotosynthessis its sarcasm

calm down

[ashen sluice]

WHAT why did my axe just hit me

[spring glen]

ahh?

Is that abbrebriation for something

[ashen sluice]

look who cant say ass 😂😂

[spring glen]

Oh

[lyric junco]

This one trick makes billionaires envy you! 10 easy tricks how to make everyone in the room hate you 🎂

[ashen sluice]

man i hate this gato

y gath

[wheat leaf]

?? I’m cool as biscuits

[ashen sluice]

i killed the boss with his own weapon now thats sick

[wheat leaf]

My life peaked when I did that to commoner boss

[ashen sluice]

same

also i love switching to halfsword as soon as they think im doing a normal sword tghing

[wheat leaf]

attack, my shitfuck

[slim ether]

you're a wizzard hairy

[wheat leaf]

the homunculi training has been coming along swimmingly

[slim ether]

how do you stab good with pointy sword? Alt seems clumsy

[lyric junco]

abyss experience

[fallen glacier]

double left click and hold I think helps with thrusts

along with alt as well as shift for foot work

[toxic lance]

Ive always used Alt, double left click never worked for me but alt + footwork works

[slim ether]

what's footwork? Short sprint bursts to assist swing momentum?

with shift

[toxic lance]

That, and general good movement

Ive always found it good to thrust with alt and also use Willie himself to move the blade's point into my other Willie

[fallen glacier]

yea, I usually always hold shift, it puts you in a more maneuverable stance and helps with dodging

[misty gazelle]

double click works good

[toxic lance]

clean

[slim ether]

oh damn, my willie never looks that stable

[misty gazelle]

These two are done with a reversal on the extension of a swing, no double click/alt or anything

[fallen glacier]

anyone know what the center crosshair setting does?

[wheat leaf]

it seems small gangs of creatures are less willing to fight than one big creature, a shame indeed

and health potions dont work on them apparently

[slim ether]

this is wild

[misty gazelle]

aaand a double click

[slim ether]

Are you guys maxing mouse sens and dpi?

[misty gazelle]

my mouse dpi is maxxed, sensitivity in game is about 1/3rd from the left.

you wanna play with it that you can get velocity with your swings but still have control

too high and willies arms get tangled, lol

[slim ether]

i see

[wheat leaf]

im only running like 800 dpi and 15-20% from the left on the ingame slider

i think the only person really running MAX sensitivity is Johnhalfsword, dude has his mouse sens at 26,000 dpi

[slim ether]

I've been running mine 1600

[pliant crest]

Bro

The spike stick is so fucking annoying

[wheat leaf]

thats well within reason imo, i dont think theres any actual 'correct' sens. like vincent said the key is to just have it where you get full swing speed but can control the weapon precisely too

[pliant crest]

It's given me spike stick people 10 fights back to back ;-;

[wheat leaf]

hell simulator

[pliant crest]

I'm running as a peasant with a longsword using the selector. I can beat all the other weapons relatively easily, but that damn stick

[wheat leaf]

stabs are the highest damage attacks in the game, and thats just a giant stick that stabs no matter how its swung so tends to be pretty op against no armor lmao

[pliant crest]

It's not even the stab that gets me

If you don't block it by basically rushing him when he reaches back to swing, it's gonna get your fingies, then boom, dead.

[buoyant ravine]

damn blue shirt just got destroyed. you an hear his bone snap off camera

[slim ether]

candle stick is the most deadly weapon

[fallen glacier]

is there any difference between killing Willie in the menu and just clicking the abyss button?

[narrow fern]

right click into the neck

[lavish radish]

whats the best weapon in knight

[slim ether]

holy Moses I finaly made it to veteran status

[short pagoda]

mercy messiah

[misty gazelle]

was this too mean

[slim ether]

the battle axe is pretty sick in the Veteran level

[slim ether]

relly nice and mean

are those short vids an in game function?

[misty gazelle]

just screen recording software

i use nvidias built in stuff,

[slim ether]

ah ok, I don't have those swords crossing intro thing at the begening f the match like in yours

[fallen glacier]

what's better scythe or pitchfork

[slim ether]

pitch fork

[sharp orchid]

depends on the gore level

if its high then scythe, if its low then pitchfork

[ashen sluice]

wait whats the lore of the baron again

[slim ether]

Fatal error!

[ashen sluice]

i didnt even hit him, i was just running bro

the baron is op

[wheat leaf]

big shiny dude 👍

[ashen sluice]

who will win

fatal error will win ok

[slim ether]

I honestly really appreciate that when you die you lose all you're progress. Kudos to the devs for keeping it hardcore.

[ashen sluice]

this is funny

[fallen glacier]

yeah I like that

you're essentially a new beggar each time, climbing the ranks

[buoyant ravine]

i like the way yellow shirt got decimated instantly by a couple punches

[slim ether]

yeah its great

[ashen sluice]

why are you so overpowered

wait

i bugged the game so i can kill beggars as baron LMAOO

[wheat leaf]

you couldnt kill beggars as baron before?

[ashen sluice]

so long gay bowser

[ashen sluice]

no

i dont think so

i wasnt able to

[lavish radish]

Guys

how do i beat knight boss

[tame thicket]

use polearm, hit him in the head

[mellow reef]

ain't that just the solution for all problems

[tame thicket]

indeed yes

[fallen glacier]

afaik the baron only wears French stuff right? His targe has the French coat-of-arms and the texture for his helmet plume has French in its name, which makes sense since it's blue and yellow.

[ashen sluice]

yea

[fallen glacier]

does his targe change if you've selected something other than French?

[ashen sluice]

no

[fallen glacier]

interesting

[wheat leaf]

iirc his helmet is more italian than french

[ashen sluice]

they are all teaming up

[tame thicket]

only one who poses a slight threat is the dude with the candelabra

[buoyant ravine]

yeh yeh whatever

[ashen sluice]

HEADLOCK

[tame thicket]

I got that bug once, couldn't replicate it anymore

[fallen glacier]

very interesting

[buoyant ravine]

i love he way my character woke up the moment he got spanked by the stick

[wheat leaf]

first one is a milanese armet(italian) while second is a more french design if google serves me correct, i see more resemblence in the first one to the barons armet

[fallen glacier]

yeah true

[robust crag]

is this teaming?

[balmy canopy]

hi i want to send a funny pic

i cant

why

[tame thicket]

gotta be level 3

[robust crag]

u need to be lvl 3

[balmy canopy]

burh

[buoyant ravine]

now how did his head not get sliced off by that hit

[tame thicket]

you can post it on the "game footage" channel

[balmy canopy]

[fallen glacier]

I think it would be cool if they added a hall of meat type deal where after death you can see the overall damage done to each bodypart/organ/bone and what actually killed you

[potent palm]

how do i get the playing test?

i dont see it on steam

i only have the demo

pls help

[sharp orchid]

they closed the playtest a little while ago, the demo is the only thing you can play right now

[potent palm]

is the demo good?

[sharp orchid]

yes

[potent palm]

okay thank you for letting me know

[sharp orchid]

np

[potent palm]

do you know when the playing test is gonna be back?

[sharp orchid]

im not sure if its gonna come back in the first place, probably they will release the full game before they reopen the playtest

[potent palm]

alr ty for letting me know ima go play the demo cause it just got done downloading

bro this game is so hard

[buoyant ravine]

i was dead anyways

[buoyant ravine]

it was badass until it wasnt

why the hell did bro do a jump

[potent palm]

it wont lemme pick up wepons? what dol ido

i pressed E

[wheat leaf]

try harder, if it really doesnt work then restart the game

theres nothing that strictly forces willie to pick stuff up when e is pressed, it just makes him able to grab and typically pushes his hand in the direction of the nearest grabbable, but if any part of that process fails he just doesnt pick it up

[potent palm]

i didnt use my mouse for my hand lol

[wheat leaf]

sometimes you gotta manually reach in front of you before grabbing a weapon so his hand doesnt get stuck behind his legs

[potent palm]

i did that

this game is really fun not gonna lie

[wheat leaf]

for how little there really is in it, theyve done quite a good job

[potent palm]

ya its really fun

[ashen sluice]

i finally got it

[wheat leaf]

you can even do parkour

..kinda

[buoyant ravine]

half-wick (a john wick parody)

[ashen sluice]

is this fair?

[sand ridge]

if i ping a dev and ask for realese will i get banned???

[ashen sluice]

idk

[sharp orchid]

ping them and find out

[sand ridge]

..

...

[ashen sluice]

prob like a warning

[finite bough]

most likely a warn, but please try it and you will know it.

[fallen glacier]

if you do that theyll immediately break your door down and delete the demo off your computer

[ashen sluice]

they will destroy you

[sand ridge]

@unique bough realese????????????? pls just maybe pls dont break my door down

[sharp orchid]

your deatomization is imminent

[finite bough]

just like how we destroy willies.

[ashen sluice]

@sharp orchid when release

[sharp orchid]

like a century or so

[finite bough]

and legends says he will be never seen again.

[ashen sluice]

okay

[sand ridge]

he hasnt answered i fear i must run

[ashen sluice]

okay 1 is enough bro

speedrun ban by pinging all mods and asking when release

[sharp orchid]

yes

half sword ban speedrun wr any%

[fallen glacier]

so based on the references channel, does the game canonically take place between 1450 and 1470? I know there's really not much lore yet but I'm heavy into lore stuff

[buoyant ravine]

that first move shouldnt even be legal

[sand ridge]

i think

[sharp orchid]

id assume so, yeah

[sand ridge]

might be earlier

[potent palm]

whats better high or low mouse settings

[ashen sluice]

omg i saw that original message was deleted and i thought he got banned

[sand ridge]

high

[ashen sluice]

holy shit

[buoyant ravine]

the enemy has been defeated

[muted owl]

https://tenor.com/view/взгляд-2000-ярдов-война-war-soldier-gif-3632617944134077161

[narrow oxide]

Depends on the weapon, one handed it's better to have lower sensitivity so you have better control over your weapon. Two handed is better to have higher sensitivity so you hit harder. You can get even more into the minutiae with it depending on if you have a sword or axe/mace

[narrow oxide]

It's in 2 weeks trust me

[buoyant ravine]

gotta lock the fuck in when the best part goes on

sorry about the ass quality i compressed the video

[grave rivet]

its like wathing a ultrakill gameplay

[brazen topaz]

where did the popping skull mechanic goooo from the first version of halfsworrddd i wanntt ittt

[ashen sluice]

fatal error within the first round of me booting up half sword

fun

[soft osprey]

Turn off blood, reduce graphics, run on dx11

[fallen glacier]

what's better spear or pitchfork

[ashen sluice]

not that, just never had that happen before

[ashen sluice]

two vs one stabby thing, which do you think is better

[wheat leaf]

spear has more capacity for cut damage, even if only slightly

[fallen glacier]

I've read that the spear hits harder, is better against armor and slicing but has a bit less range. Not sure though

[wheat leaf]

which spear specifically?

[fallen glacier]

just the regular one I guess. Not the boarspear

[wheat leaf]

so the smaller spear?

[fallen glacier]

yeah

[ashen sluice]

omg i love when i step on the scythe after i have beaten the peasant boss and it slices me in half!! so fun!!

bro this fuckass game

[wheat leaf]

i think it does hit a bit harder and like i said a bit more cut damage, but both are pretty similar

[ashen sluice]

the abyss actually gave me a chance

wtf

i actually managed to rank up to commoner after being sliced by the peasant boss

???

not complaining... but okay

[granite summit]

Hey is anyone else’s screen not going dark after being tired or being hit real good?

It only blacks out when i get knocked out and that’s all 🫩

[wheat leaf]

headbutt a dude so hard my game crashed

[fallen glacier]

do clothes offer protection?

[shell bronze]

yes

those who telegraph instead of defending

[sudden sundial]

guys im geniunely starting to cook with forward grip in half sword

[fallen glacier]

I just tripped over a small candelabra and broke both of my legs

[fringe nova]

Well the games definitely not releasing in janurary

[fallen glacier]

is it possible to regain composer after losing a limb? I've never been able to use my weapons if I get my hand or arm cut off, Willie just hugs himself and screams, but I just cut beggar boss' arm off and he's hollering but he was able to swing the axe one handed for a bit til he stopped and hugged himself

[shell bronze]

no

half sword is so much fun

this looks just like john longsword gameplay wow

[mental kelp]

With the amount of riding happening they won even need to add horses

[shell forge]

The symbol of death has created life

[fallen glacier]

horses didn't exist in 1450

[faint crater]

nice

[mental kelp]

Above 60 detected, opinion rejected

[shell bronze]

bro watched the clip until the end 😂

translation: i ride and i am too broke to play above 60fps

[mental kelp]

Yea but I noticed something was off before but I couldn’t prove it

It didn’t look like 120 but I forget 90

[mental kelp]

I use to play 120 until I understood that it’s a crutch like u so like to avoid like the plague

Same as I once used a long sword and not bastard

[shell bronze]

he says, knowing i used to play at hardlocked 60

[mental kelp]

Not anymore tho

So ur ass

I don make the rules but it’s how it is

[shell bronze]

dude plays with a longer sword against fodder and posts it like it's something to be proud of

am i really ass or is it you

[mental kelp]

My sword is 85cm bro 😹

[shell bronze]

and?

[mental kelp]

Well within mid to low bastard range

[shell bronze]

you beat up falchion and dagger people with random swings

sometimes buckler

[mental kelp]

Non of it is random

[shell bronze]

any clown with a sword can do that and claim technique 😂

[mental kelp]

I just kill and if it looks cool then I clip it

[faint crater]

just kiss already guys

[mental kelp]

Yea well I’ve seen others clips and I can say no they cannot

[mental kelp]

Not fodder + basically the same move you do in EVERY clip

Or is that u doing that idek

With my old ass outfit

[shell bronze]

lookin ass

[shell bronze]

he can't tell

my point is proven

[mental kelp]

Yea but I could tell that it’s the same move you always do 😹

An I don’t do that move

[faint crater]

shouldny you do it every once in awhile

[mental kelp]

I would never send a clip of a bisection cause they don’t look cool

[faint crater]

they kinda yucky

[simple vale]

smacked his arm up and then hit his arm directly and broke it,.,.
totally what i meant to do

[shell bronze]

certified john longsword playstyle

[mental kelp]

Not even a bad clip tho, it’s just a parry and kill. Something u can’t criticize by any means

[fierce veldt]

I am doing something so horribly stupid I might get laughed at, but here we go

[faint crater]

nah you have to admit he is totally doggin on ya with that one

that was lowkey mean lol

kinda funny though

[shell bronze]

[fierce veldt]

I kinda have set it up so I can play Half Sword with voice commands

[shell bronze]

corporate wants you to find the difference between these two clips barring the fact that i didn't hit the throat

[mental kelp]

Just remove the part where I say that wasn’t a good clip just a nice hew

• sending out of practice clips

I don play 24/7 like clueless

[shell bronze]

now why would i showcase the full story when my goal is to trash talk

the narrative™

[shell bronze]

it's ok bro i'll represent you

your culture is my costume

[humble bloom]

It is an extremely stupid idea outside of those that cant play any other way, but if you manage to make it work and play half decently, that would be impressive.

[fierce veldt]

Oh I know. But like the guy that beat all the Elden Ring bosses with Voice Commands... I am simply a sadist

[shell bronze]

ever watched real steel

imagine making a macro that does pre-set moves depending on voice activation

100% possible i just don't know the specifics required

[simple vale]

"Willie, kill that man"

[shell bronze]

or like lex luthor controlling his dudes

A4! G2! B3!

[fierce veldt]

oh let me tell you its not that complex. I tell the program when to use what arm (or both) and when to swing left or right

[small glen]

idk even know what i stabbed

[humble bloom]

One of the many childhood movies, yes.

[shell bronze]

imagine screaming at willie

BLOCK LEFT! SWING RIGHT! MOVE BACK!

[fierce veldt]

in game footage I showed off the setup so far

[mental kelp]

Type of shit u building up watching all my clips rn

[small glen]

https://tenor.com/view/real-steel-robot-punch-boxing-gif-17540445

Fucking love Noisy boy!

[shell bronze]

because your clips are just about as slop as mine and you can train a monkey to do the same stuff

[mental kelp]

Adding to your diversity of parry up and cut left

[shell bronze]

yeah with your basic guard breaks and offensive moves against defenseless ai

[shell bronze]

nice name

you have 24h to change it

[faint crater]

lmfao

grrrrr

[mental kelp]

All the cuts are just normal cuts…

[shell bronze]

ai is dumb enough in this game for it to be viable

[mental kelp]

Usually to neck or hands or head

[faint crater]

is this tech or nah

[humble bloom]

I dont know if John understands clueless is talking about his name

[faint crater]

upwards strikes kinda buns in this game

[shell bronze]

and any reasonably-thrown cut in this game insta kills the ai so there is no challenge to be had and barely any required finesse

[humble bloom]

💀

[shell bronze]

i think you should change your name rn actually

[mental kelp]

Do not throw any cuts, peak gameplay 🧘‍♂️

[simple vale]

what do we think of this combo clip ..

[faint crater]

idek what timed me out

[shell bronze]

ok it wasn't like i didn't try helping

[faint crater]

that was willd

[fierce veldt]

i wish there were VCs here so I could show off easier

[faint crater]

there are

[fierce veldt]

how do I level up fast here to send clips?

[shell bronze]

it's so sad that steve jobs died of ligma

[fallen glacier]

what's ligma

[simple vale]

whos stjob

[shell bronze]

just send a message every few minutes and you'll get it eventually

[faint crater]

NOOO

ANDREW

[fierce veldt]

where?

[shell bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/dr-manhattan-gif-18899941

[humble bloom]

Half sword devs plz nerf stabs and buff armor I watched the sellsword arts video about armor plz plz pllz

[faint crater]

oh you gotta be a lvl

[fierce veldt]

wut level?

[faint crater]

idk

more

higher

[shell bronze]

throw cuts after demonstrating superiority against ai by letting it throw its best cuts at you

superior and more technically impressive gameplay ✅

[mental kelp]

Done that

[shell bronze]

whatever you do i can do

[faint crater]

what if i hold shift and w and make a cool fluid parry into cut

[sour mason]

I think it would be cool to have the option of fighting against animals, like lions and bears.

[fierce veldt]

hmmmm

[mental kelp]

Well I’ve just seen the attempts so I think not

[faint crater]

r we deadass

[humble bloom]

Inside Willie are two wolves.
One is eating
The other is eating.

Willie is dead

[shell bronze]

he act like his clips are not the same identical lethargic slow cuts and basic blade manipulation/takes

[faint crater]

what kind of clips would you find impressive, that aren't of your own nature

[shell bronze]

with the occasional stroke of luck where the ai doesn't backswing or take advantage of the threat they present to him

pot calls kettle black it's so sad

[mental kelp]

The cuts are like

Normal speed

[simple vale]

wonder what my fistfighting clips are like to someone who knows high level fistfighting
would my clips even be good

[mental kelp]

And basic blade manip is all u can do

Better though than one who does none

[faint crater]

honestly fistfighting is just one shot to the head and its over

[shell bronze]

idk much about fistfighting since it's just either go for one or two good hits to the head, spin kicking, or spend 30s trying to get a grapple right

or 3 minutes dealing chip damage everywhere else

barely any gameplay variety and that's just the nature of half sword fistfighting

[faint crater]

sadly

been feeling that way about top tier too lately

[shell bronze]

you mean me hitting this guy's buckler 13 times before landing a nick on his head is not clean parrying??

[faint crater]

feel like all i can do with the greatsword is bash them in the head a couple times in sequence or halfsword them

pretty lame rn

[shell bronze]

i mean you're not supposed to take a greatsword to armor usually

[faint crater]

well yeah

but thats the prettiest

[faint crater]

@shell bronze rahhhhh

[shell bronze]

it must be nice using this long ass sword to bully commoners

[faint crater]

why are we still on this

[shell bronze]

the kind i can't replicate outside of grappling

[shell bronze]

yo let me ragebait this guy in peace

it's a bloodline feud

[fierce veldt]

oooh I might beat the first boss with Voice Commands

[faint crater]

be mroe specific my guy

[shell bronze]

nothing lmao

[faint crater]

i thought youd say that

[mental kelp]

I don’t even know what this is referencing but if I sent that it’s probs a night where I’m doing ass so I jus send anything

[faint crater]

do u not care that it makes you sound big headed bro

[shell bronze]

this was not targeted towards you but the average aspiring parry player

[faint crater]

like yes youre really good

but like cmon

[shell bronze]

i wouldn't subject you to that standard bro dw 💋

[mental kelp]

Getting hard to tell what’s for me and what’s not fr

[shell bronze]

besides fake feuding and shitting on people i'm cool with i keep things objective

and try to help others improve when they do need help

[humble bloom]

Mod the game to replace the unarmed animations with the longsword animations but without the longsword and use unarmed longsword techniques to beat a Willie.
This is the only way to impress clueless with fistplay

[shell bronze]

you don't see me shitting on people outside of plain assessments on what they need to do whether it be cheese or actual improvement

[faint crater]

this is true

[wheat leaf]

what are we waffling about today, chat

[mental kelp]

But fear not because it is spoken in prophecy how I shall return in the days of the finishing of the manuscript, and how I will rival my previous Half Sword play time and return to the former glory which has been so lost as of late

[faint crater]

but like theres definitely stuff in the game you haven't completely mastered though right?

[shell bronze]

i only choose my specific style of gameplay for the challenge and the fact that it's not replicable to the common player

[mental kelp]

The downfall all started with the writing of the manuscript

[shell bronze]

the prophecy in question:

i'll monetize john longsword's manuscript by making yt videos using it as a reference and not crediting him

[mental kelp]

Score

[shell bronze]

so we can get a flood of his clones in this server

while i gatekeep how to play good

[wheat leaf]

your manuscripts are no match for my freakhau technique

[shell bronze]

ignoring the ragebait loadout i find it hilarious that to counter this ai stance + swing all you do is thrust into it

[small glen]

glitches

[faint crater]

yeah the long sword is def crazy at that br

[shell bronze]

maybe some diabolical bind techniques and specific spin moves that'll take me like 30m-1h to learn

but nothing in the generalized skill tree

[faint crater]

moai doesn't play the game or post clips i wouldn't know

[mental kelp]

Easily seen by how u try to replicate in these clips

[faint crater]

look at his brave stand clips

[faint crater]

wait

did i think of the wrong person

[mental kelp]

How he just runs around the field and swings??

[faint crater]

who posts the full plate greatsword clips all the time

[shell bronze]

you mean skirting from side to side and around vaguely without it actually impacting much of your kills?

sure

[wheat leaf]

milita?

[faint crater]

you have to admit there is definitely more intricacy there than that

[shell bronze]

militus has me beat at the apex of greatsword gameplay thanks to his high dpi and 1k hours of experience doing it but i can get pretty close

[wheat leaf]

rosted

[shell bronze]

especially if given full plate

[small glen]

i was trying to do something dumb, got hit twice and decided to just end it

[shell bronze]

it's cod zombies kiting and managing threats

without armor or a cheese weapon you have to be mindful of how to take on multiple people who match/exceed your loadout

[faint crater]

for sure

but there are times where you have better footwork than just kiting during thos clips

[small glen]

i used the t4 longsword without armor and without spinning, and without half sword. I hated it..

[shell bronze]

which one
