Meemaws brisket

Hot damn

That’s what he said when he was making love to his wife then young Sheldon remembered the recipe

Bc when he was a baby he heard his dad moan “hot damn” when he was making love to his wife

And that reminded him of the brisket recipe from his meemaw

And the dad really liked it and he wanted to recreate it but he didn’t know the recipe

So meemaw gave him a fake recipe and it wasn’t real so he got mad

Bitch

my skull is awesome

[idle crest]

Progress on the bascinet im making

Still got loads of weld damage that needs removing. Looks worse than it is because the buffing soap for the buffing wheel collects in all the crevices and makes them look really dark

[sleek crystal]

Holy shit make me armour

[zenith hearth]

Yo something's wrong with my eyes because there's a spot around the middle of my vision that jumbles details and makes it hard to read text because I literally can't see the letters. It's like theres nothing there and it is making it difficult to type

It's like that when I get a migraine but I don't have a headache rn

I legit just can't see good or read and idk why

I can't even tell what im seeing on the mark

[indigo hare]

Me when my first reaction to something very clearly medically wrong with my eye/vision is let discord know

[zenith hearth]

Because I have no idea what to do

Can barely make out the keyboard

[indigo hare]

Oh gee man I think maybe like going to the doctor would be a good idea

[zenith hearth]

In also at an entire restaurant rn

[indigo hare]

Not just half?

[neat tundra]

You somethings wrong with my legs because theres a spot below the knee where its jagged and theres nothing but pink and red mass.

[indigo hare]

Just put a bandaid on it and stop crying

[neat tundra]

I would but I can barely lift my arms anymore also I'm at the r

[zenith hearth]

Whatever it is it feels like peripheral vision but in the center

Okay vision seems to be coming back

[oak olive]

tuff

[oak olive]

beatiful

it should be pinned

[indigo hare]

Oh my god

This is the deal of a lifetime

Quick someone take advantage of this before I take all the jobs and money

[zenith hearth]

Okay my vision came back yay

[hardy mirage]

low blood sugar likely

i get like that when my blood sugar drops very quickly

[zenith hearth]

Maybe

I was at a trampoline place earlier today and I exerted a lot of energy

Could be that

But now my head's starting to hurt

Might actually be a migraine

[hardy mirage]

headaches can also be a symptom of low blood sugar

[vestal eagle]

I really wish I could experience a migraine fog

It sounds so cool

[hardy mirage]

it's very unpleasant actually

[zenith hearth]

It's not

You'll still deal with the migraine which hurts like hell

[plucky garden]

[vestal eagle]

I once got woken up in the middle of the night from a fever driven hypnagogic dream, I legitimately felt like I died for like hours afterwards, my mom asked me where I was and I said I was in England. I had such a sense of dread and despair, one I've never felt before, I also had a splitting headache for hours after it happened, and I am STILL trying to create the same conditions in which I had that specific type of dream when I was sick. My point is, I would probably tank out the pain just so I can experience something otherworldly

[hardy mirage]

in my experience, getting woozy from a low blood sugar is more unpleasant in that the only real effect on your perception is an overall lack of focus

it's kind of like when you read the same sentence 6 times in a row because you weren't sure you caught it the first time

[vestal eagle]

So you basically feel like your drunk with low blood sugar?

[hardy mirage]

i've actually never drank before so i wouldn't know

though i do favor articulation so what's unpleasant for me might be euphoric to another

[vestal eagle]

For me, being drunk feels like my brain is completely coherent of what's happening, and I actually feel like I can take more time to articulate my words, I just get severely emotional and my body is literally just incapable of working above a certain point

I've only gotten drunk once before though so

[hardy mirage]

well the one time that i had a blood sugar low enough to wipe my focus i actually could hardly form the words "can i get a capri sun"

[elder pawn]

that boy creaky as fuck

[vestal eagle]

I see, so low blood sugar is nothing like feeling drunk then, got it

Currently, I've actually been eating mold, so now anything I eat is turned into alcohol and makes me semi drunk so yea

Idk why I said that lowk

Literally no correlation

[hardy mirage]

i love mold

[indigo hare]

https://tenor.com/view/wtf-what-the-fuck-the-fuck-is-this-wth-gif-17571836

[vestal eagle]

Trust me y'all, do some experiments with mold next time you have some moldy bread, as long as it's not lethal or causes pain it's actually pretty cool to feel the effects, it's kind of like buffs from a video game

[elder pawn]

let’s all eat black mold

yummy

mmmm mold

[vestal eagle]

Although I currently need to check airy, cake mold off my list cause it's currently causing pain down my entire left leg and left unmentionable because I've been eating it for about a week

Also my spine is hurting and there's pimples popping up at the base of my neck

I feel like a fucking nurgle monster right now bro, this is an actually deranged rant I'm going on

It must be the mold

[elder pawn]

why the fuck are you eating mold bro

But I get it

[elder pawn]

yeah no that’s the unfortunate part about re5

besides that the games not too bad

[vestal eagle]

You could literally show someone that one that has no knowledge of RE games, and they'd think you were a 7 foot tall white dude just murdering African people, it's crazy, at least Re4 had some kind of indication they were infected

[elder pawn]

Yeah no capcom could’ve and should’ve done better

when i decide the devs have been in my basement long enough

[wind sluice]

How much to release them

a personal pan pizza from dominos

I’ll give you 3 bucks

wait, if half sword is set in 1475, austria frankenburg.

CAN THE DEVS PLEASE ADD THE LANDSCHNECKT?

this is a MASSIVE oversight and it will NOT be forgotten

[wind sluice]

Can the half sword devs add like

Anything

For proof of their existence

cool hats!

big swords!

[bleak pecan]

They are prob doing a big performance overhaul, that is the one reason I don’t like the game

[tired tulip]

the voulge!!!

[tired tulip]

you dont like the game bcz the devs are fixing their performance and taking accountability?
🤔

what gpu do you have friend?

[bleak pecan]

Dawg what,
I can be critical of the game’s performance and still like the game.

Rtx 4070 ti

[drowsy finch]

you just said you didn’t like the game

[wind sluice]

I’m one for faith but

It’s been quite some time since the last update

[tired tulip]

what

you said u didnt like the game

but do like it?

[bleak pecan]

I’m mixed on it

[tired tulip]

i mean, i paid supporter cuz i feel like in the next step, the devs can do no wrong. we went thru this rodeo before in the demo.

[bleak pecan]

I like the gameplay itself but the performance kinda ruins it for me

[tired tulip]

but if any of you are in the know for ready or not. My trust has been broken before.

[wind sluice]

Devs should publish a roadmap honestly

[tired tulip]

thats crazy tank

they did

[bleak pecan]

Same, I believe the devs will fix it, they have plenty times before

[wind sluice]

Woah where is it

[tired tulip]

one sec

[bleak pecan]

Idk what that is 😭

[cyan schooner]

Got any pixels with that?

[tired tulip]

yes sir comign up

just ignore the red arrows

cant wait for HS 1.0

[cyan schooner]

Idk. Most of that stuff I don't care about.

[bleak pecan]

Yea

[tired tulip]

what do you want in half sword

[cyan schooner]

Honestly. Just the demo is fine for me.

[tired tulip]

so unambitious

think about it, what do you want in half sword?

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-shocked-monkey-disappointed-disappointed-monkey-gif-25631537

[bleak pecan]

Honestly what we have already with performance updates would be grand

[tired tulip]

find your ambition my friend

[drowsy finch]

What like serfs

[tired tulip]

the devs come to you, with the trailers featuring spinning cannons, pitfalls, narrow walkways, dialogue..

and you want a sopping mess, of just 5 maps, limited character customization

black people werent slaves in 1475 germanic europe, knave.

[drowsy finch]

That wouldn’t be historically accurate …

[tired tulip]

in fact, contact wouldnt be made until the 15th to the 16th century

[bleak pecan]

It’s not that I don’t want more content, I would just rather have a polished game first

[tired tulip]

my brother in james, your confusing me

[calm bluff]

guys

[calm bluff]

idc about this game we got scammed

[cyan schooner]

Why r u here, then?

[tired tulip]

dont worry bro, we've all been in our edgy phase

i hope you can escape it without being affected

[tired tulip]

buys an early access demo

"we got scammed"

[drowsy finch]

Lmfao literally

[tired tulip]

i bet he didnt even buy it bruh

[bleak pecan]

The game def wasn’t what I was expecting but I wouldn’t say it’s an outright scam

[tired tulip]

honestly

[drowsy finch]

well i mean

The game isnt out yet lol

[tired tulip]

i playd the demo for years

then i got shiny new gameplay, and a sick baron

i'd say im happy

[wind sluice]

Okay but the lack of content so far does call for some concern

[tired tulip]

early access

you pay for early access

Did you even play the demo?

[drowsy finch]

Y’all acting like this isn’t routine for half sword

[wind sluice]

Yes I’ve got a good couple hours in it

[drowsy finch]

We waited around year for blood to be readded lol

[tired tulip]

we got fucking free play, with all tiers, abyss game mode was boring

and then the april fools update came out, we had unlockable tiers

[wind sluice]

Yea it’s a big improvement from the demo fo sure

[tired tulip]

then the devs cooked with new maps rather than sand

well besides slums

but after many excruciating bug fixes

slums is playable

you get trading, armor customization, you can make your own weapons

the physics are more fun now

weight system, height, character customization

[wind sluice]

Did they change it?

[tired tulip]

you stare at framework of a house with walls and only a floor and you tell me that you aren't satisfied with progress?

[tired tulip]

nah just my personal opinion as someone who DOES swing around medieval weapons in real life

it's more fun, feels like real life

[drowsy finch]

No but we got scammed because the devs with a historical pattern of long dev cycles is taking a long time to develop the game

Wonder why thats happening

[tired tulip]

oh damn! it's like.. THE DEVS..

TH DEVS ARE MAKING A BIG UPADTE!?!?!??!

were you here pre april fools?

[bleak pecan]

Why does that matter

[tired tulip]

just asking cuz we didnt get a word from the devs

[indigo hare]

The things you said already, you should be the last person to talk about any type of communication

[tired tulip]

your locked to tier 1 chris, begone to serfdom

beg on the streets knave

[drowsy finch]

Lmfao

Idiot

[tired tulip]

i thought he was genuinely about to say

a very enlightened conversation on slavery in the middle ages

[drowsy finch]

I was soooo ready to frame one the “it’s just a joke 🤓”

[tired tulip]

and bro comes out with "black people"

i was blindsided

[drowsy finch]

People who talk about slavery or women being added to half sword usually have edgy motives

I’ve had a total of one good discussion about the presence of women

[tired tulip]

i mean women would be nice to see as a concept in half sword

[drowsy finch]

The rest have allll sucked

[drowsy finch]

Well, specifically as combatants/playable characters

[tired tulip]

the game is about climbinb up the ranks and defying the social ladder, seeing as how the jester is a chaotic neutral party, gladly crowning a new baron (from how i see it) once they beat the lords tourney

a woman being present in the jesters sicks games wouldnt be unlikely

although im more curious how they would handle nudity, and armor

[drowsy finch]

I actually disagree heavily

[quick citrus]

is it worth it to run my monitor at 180hz instead of 170 with custom nvidia resolution

it seems to work fine

[tired tulip]

run ur resolution at ur monitors native refresh rate same goes with refresh rate

[tired tulip]

how come

[tired tulip]

like would it be harder to play as a woman due to the fact of lesser BMI? (biologically speaking)

[quick citrus]

[tired tulip]

[drowsy finch]

The oppression women faced in the 16th century was astronomical. The concept of gender roles were in full swing.

I agree that it would be nice to see, however it would be far more of a historical leap than a male peasant becoming some kind of infantry, then a knight and lord etc.

[tired tulip]

think about it like this

random tourneys, with no historical presence in frankenburg austria, 1475

hosted by a jester, which runs the fights

somehow involves knights, lords, barons, fancy marble halls

this jester literally defies social norms

he brings up, you, an infamished nobody peasant, to an armor wearing chad but only if you can kill efficiently

and most entertainingly

[bleak pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/purple-its-peak-peam-its-purple-homer-simpson-gif-13488897538789122897

[drowsy finch]

I agree, and I do see where you’re coming from, however I also believe that the sexism of the time period would have outweighed the jester’s shenanigans

[tired tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/yuri-crayon-gif-8889548144611519964

[tired tulip]

you really think a mentally depraved jester would give a fuck about sexism?

[drowsy finch]

Yea

And the people around him definetly

[tired tulip]

what people

for all we know the jester acts alone

[drowsy finch]

Literally everyone. The baron, the contenders, the society they live in

[tired tulip]

you literally become the baron, there are ZERO SOcial norms in the jesters games friend

you expect normality from a crazy man in a fancy one piece getup

[wind sluice]

Bro they literally burned people at stakes because some chick had a vision accusing others of witchcraft, I doubt they’d let women hold a sword

[drowsy finch]

You also overhype the power the jester holds 😭

[tired tulip]

did you play the game? genuinely????\

[drowsy finch]

Yes I did! Did you read literally any of the devs stating that they want it to be grounded in a historically accurate setting

Which implies heavy sexism

[drowsy finch]

Thats actually later in colonial america, but yeah same idea. There is a lot of historical precedent that shows the men would get a lot of leniency, but women would be outcasted and shunned for the same actions

[wind sluice]

Fr yo

[drowsy finch]

The games violate social norms pertaining to classism rather than sexism

[wind sluice]

He frfr typing bro

You got a lot coming your way

[idle crest]

Im flattered but I'd need to finish it first 😂

[drowsy finch]

Whats up steve

[idle crest]

Hello

[drowsy finch]

Hiya!!!

I’m lowkey pulling an all nighter for no reason

My circadian rhythm is kinda fucked ngl

[idle crest]

Adhd?

[drowsy finch]

the only thing i’m diagnosed with is ocd

[tired tulip]

alright, let's put it like this;

You, shitbag nobody, arrives in frankenburg austria, a town on the "brink of collapse" as described by the intro narrator, "quills and taxes and the oath that no one important starts drinking by noon"
it sits there "prude on a hill because no one bothered to knock it down"
We're already starting off with a banger because it is implied and said that Frankenburg serves as this cosm of events, all colliding into one. Rumors, deceits all slick with the street.

This one's good
"Disputes are settled out with grace, dignity, and whichever blade mix or stool is closer at hand"
^Violence is the Main part of Frankenburg

"The baron calls it maintaining order"
^Already a pre-established leader but by what means?
"If honest work is what they seek, i admire their optimism"
^ There is NO Honest work seen in Frankenburg, social order is already broken down.

"The Jester Lies"
^Why would anyone care about a jester? unless they're an important figure, with people that listen to them about them lying.

Look; from how i see it - The game itself serves as a standpoint that all social norms are not to be listened too and the baron can come and go by whoever is the strongest and no one can oppose that.

[drowsy finch]

I think its just from finals and my stupid chud study plan of

Not sleeping

[tired tulip]

now, the devs have said that women will not be in half sword but how i like to see it personally

The jester does not care, and will lie straight through those pearly whites

if you as it say it is is about classism and sociality, there will be no sociality, only pfennings traded and blood spilt in wicked tournaments

and who would give a crap about sexism if they come to frankenburg for only pfennings?

[drowsy finch]

I don’t see how this pertains to Frankenberg not being sexist/more accepting of women they still would have risen under the same sexist conditions as their neighboring places.

[drowsy finch]

The people who were raised to be sexist…

Idk

I dont

Care

[tired tulip]

which are also escaping the ire of their old lives

OF which Sexism contains

[tired tulip]

which could be one of the many reasons

[drowsy finch]

Whatever man

[tired tulip]

thats my point, no one cares

[tired tulip]

alright then i had fun discussing this topic

i hope this changed your opinion

[drowsy finch]

It really didnt

Im just confused and i dont want to talk about it anymore

[tired tulip]

then you werent listening and you dont care

[drowsy finch]

Your points just make no sense and assume things that have no basis

Like

[tired tulip]

i'll break it down

no one in frankenburg cares about women because they're worried about getting paid

[wind sluice]

Severely underestimating the priorities men had in the medieval era

[tired tulip]

that also says that men in frankenburg have more than 2 priorities

1. dont die
2. get paid

[wind sluice]

😭 if a woman was able to read or write she’d be accused of witchcraft amongst other things

[drowsy finch]

Greed and deeply rooted sexism aren’t mutually exclusive </3/3/3/3

[tired tulip]

"Disputes are settled out with grace, dignity, and whichever blade mix or stool is closer at hand"

[drowsy finch]

Okay????

[tired tulip]

im not saying that women should be in half sword, this is entirely a thought process i had

a nice what-if

[drowsy finch]

Oh

That makes a lot more sense

[tired tulip]

dont you think a sexist man would have a dispute with a woman with blade?

which would then be solved with dignity and grace?

by frankenburg standards?

[drowsy finch]

I don’t think the woman from the 1400s would get the chance to have the blade

[idle crest]

I want to make a videogame inspired by hieronymous bosch paintings. No fighting, just talking to weird fuckers and trying to figure out what's going on.
Perhaps people will ask you to do things for them but those requests will often be vague and you can interpret them in many ways. How the player might interpret these requests might change the game world to reflect the player.

[small fog]

In 1450-1470? No. They would of just killed her

[wind sluice]

No lmao they’d just kill her

That’s the whole point

[tired tulip]

people come to frankenburg to leave bhind social standards

[wind sluice]

Of what we’re tryna say

[tired tulip]

fucking hell man, READ

death is common

pople fight to the death

to get paid

[drowsy finch]

They come there for MONEY brawg 😭

[idle crest]

Joanne de'arc

[tired tulip]

i didnt want to bring her up but yes

[small fog]

Think she was alot earlier.

[idle crest]

She was 1400s

[small fog]

By the mid 15th century women didn't have a role in combat

[tired tulip]

wouldnt it be an issue if she was anachronistic?

[drowsy finch]

Sounds interesting… i like this…

[wind sluice]

Exception, that too after constant vetting and hate, not to mention she was burned at stake for a trivial accusation

[drowsy finch]

Yeah but that was a very special case that was absolutely shunned and very controversial

[tired tulip]

early 1430

[drowsy finch]

Which is different to having women participate in battle en masse

[small fog]

I get it, I do. But she's a single reference, a one off. Not a common thing.

I'm just trying to look at historical evidence while jumping in/out of this

[idle crest]

This is extremely reductive. She was burned at the stake by the British who were determined to have her killed, the accusation was irrelevant they just needed some excuse to get rid of her.

[small fog]

Because ik the devs whole aim was historically accurate

[tired tulip]

let me break it down
Frankenburg likely has their own special / or little social standards.

everyone there does not expect to have "honest work" as said IN THE INTRO,

"if you expect honest work, i admire your optimism"
so the only reason people are there is because of pfennings

to get paid before they dance the dance of death

[drowsy finch]

you’re just repeating a redundant argument that vaguely alludes to your point despite not being reflected in game to the extent that you are talking about

[tired tulip]

the perspective, the narrator, is a resident of frankenburg someone who has seen it all

[tired tulip]

how is it not reflected in the game? the whole gameplay loop is fights set up by a jester where you go up tiers from being a beggar, to a peasant, to a commoner to a man at arms then a knight then a LORD Then Baron

[wind sluice]

Okay but doesn’t take away that she’s an exception, if it were that easy we’d have a whole lot more female generals to speak of

[drowsy finch]

Okay. How does this pertain to women?

Like at all

[wind sluice]

😭

[tired tulip]

rali, you need to think about it deeper

[idle crest]

I dont care about the argument as a whole, im saying its not an absolute rule

[tired tulip]

the reason it pertains to women is solely because no one would really care from my understanding of frankenburg

[wind sluice]

Yea I know nothing is absolute except death and taxes

[drowsy finch]

But thats from a very modern lens 😭

You’re ignoring the culture that those very people would have been brought up in

[tired tulip]

okay but if we were to have a middle aged lens, send me one point in the 1400s in austria where societal order broke down and a jester began ring fights.

just one

hell, why not the holy roman empire?

you can't, because it doesn't exist, history in frankenburg is vague as hell.

historical accuracy only applies to weapn and armors

and the language spoken

[wind sluice]

No it doesn’t

[idle crest]

This is not true

[wind sluice]

??

[tired tulip]

okay if you want to expand even further, go ahead

architecture?

[drowsy finch]

You can’t bring up the smaller scope narrative and dismiss the historical basis of it lmfao

Like yes obviously the events are fictionalized

[wind sluice]

How can you not apply historical accuracy to societal norms when society is based off of societal norms dawg, down to language determining what nouns are feminine or masculine depends on gender roles, ever thought why the moon seen as feminine and all? Like what are we talking about bro

[tired tulip]

i am not "dismissing" the historical narrative, i am saying that the EVENTS would have massive effects to the narrative basis.

[idle crest]

The aim of the developers is to stay true to what we know of the period as best as possible.

Even if say, a rule was broken on rare occasion, the extreme rarity of those cases needs to be reflected still.

[drowsy finch]

However, they are grounded in historical precedent with some inaccuracies to compensate for the fact that it is a video game

[tired tulip]

i would say the "rule" of classism is broken more than on the rare occasion

[drowsy finch]

No what you’re saying is

“Because this city developed a way for men to climb the social ladder, it applies to women too!”

[idle crest]

This is the problem with reenactors alot of the time. They'll find out about some rare exception to a rule and then they'll all do it.

[tired tulip]

a social ladder which is at best only forged by only who hits the other person harder until they submit

it is pure tribalism

[drowsy finch]

Because tribalist cultures are notoriously accepting of women

[tired tulip]

that is completely offhanded

and not at all pertaining to the analogy

see? i can use big words too

[wind sluice]

Didn’t even say no big words

[drowsy finch]

Can you tell i’m sick of talking about this

[tired tulip]

you dont have to talk about this, your engaging with this what-if

[drowsy finch]

I’m not using big words </3

[tired tulip]

boom

[tired tulip]

boom

[wind sluice]

Modern lens

[tired tulip]

boom

[wind sluice]

Is big for you

😭

[tired tulip]

boom

[drowsy finch]

If these are big words then you must be below high school level lmfao

Lens is too big for you 😭

[tired tulip]

okay asshole, i guess were namecalling now

[vestal eagle]

What's happening

[tired tulip]

by essence these words are big by how you use them

[drowsy finch]

Argument devolving into blegh

[tired tulip]

you are using them to support an argument you arent even interested in

[vestal eagle]

What's the argument about

[drowsy finch]

Women half sword

[wind sluice]

Modern lens counts as a big word now

[vestal eagle]

I love arguing

[tired tulip]

it's a what-if on discussing women in half sword

[nocturne tangle]

Who ordered the hit on Tony Soprano

[vestal eagle]

Women in half sword?

[drowsy finch]

Yeag

[tired tulip]

genuinely shut up nitwit, i'd like to see you argue besides rali because rali doesnt care

[vestal eagle]

Who's saying what?

[drowsy finch]

Michael Jackson

(He really happened btw)

[nocturne tangle]

I'd say it's an average word, probably has a good personality, size ain't everything you know

[small fog]

I dont think the devs would be down to condone men beating women. Maybe that's why they won't add them

[tired tulip]

i think that what- if women were a playable gender in half sword
due to the fact that social norms are different in this events of frankenburg

[vestal eagle]

So you want women in Half Sword?

And Rali doesn't?

[tired tulip]

yeah but the devs wont so it's just a what-if

[wind sluice]

😭 I’d rather not because you’ve been going in circles and completely ignoring what everyone else has to say because you for some reason believe frankenburg is a utopia where medieval men ONLY care about fighting and money and their mindset towards women would in no way affect them participating in “their” tournaments

[wind sluice]

😭

[nocturne tangle]

In reality, it's a ton of unnecessary work to do a whole new gore rig for a different skeleton, armor etc, and it literally just doesnt make sense to have women in medieval buhurt

[tired tulip]

if what i have been saying is me going in circles you havent been paying any attention

[wind sluice]

Sure dude 👍 whatever floats your boat keep at it

[hybrid granite]

Just wait until we get into the five letter words

[tired tulip]

and i never said frankenburg is a utopia either, yet you want to come at me and act like you don't even care about the essence of this argument
shame.

[wind sluice]

Lmao completely misunderstood it knew this was coming

[vestal eagle]

Historically, women would not be fighting in tournaments or fighting at all really, so I don't see why the devs would add women other than the fact that some people want to murder women, which is weird

[drowsy finch]

Jake no

[idle crest]

These tournaments and things involved people who knew how to fight because they trained with the expectation of war. Women back then wouldn't even know how to fight and wouldn't be raised with any expectation or desire for it.

[vestal eagle]

What? Am I wrong?

[drowsy finch]

No you’re right

[tired tulip]

alright, before we begin i want to say a few things

[drowsy finch]

Dont get roped into this

[hybrid granite]

those type of people play blood trail vr

[vestal eagle]

I like arguing

[wind sluice]

Lord

[drowsy finch]

More like poop trail

[wind sluice]

Round two

[tired tulip]

i know the devs dont want to add women in half sword
i know that it is unlikely but i'll explain later
and i know it is different than societal norms but i'll explain later

[vestal eagle]

I lowk play Bonelabs for like an hour at a time just to beat on joes

It's fun

[tired tulip]

stop disassociating yet associating at the same time, your the same person that says witchcraft burnings was in the 15th century 🤦‍♂️

[nocturne tangle]

You wouldn't get it

I'm John Wick man

[vestal eagle]

So what's your point? You want women in Half Sword so you can kill them?

[tired tulip]

and i know what your gonna say

[hybrid granite]

the difference between beating joes in bonelab and beating dudes in blood trail is huge

[tired tulip]

"what about joan of arc!!"

SHE WASNT BURNED FOR WITCHCRAFT

[idle crest]

Well they did try and use that against her

[tired tulip]

my point is, this is entirely a what-if

[wind sluice]

Was giving an example lmao but okay, also is disassociating your favourite word

[hybrid granite]

i need a vr broo

mouse and keyboard starting to get boring

[tired tulip]

my first time using it, i'm not going to interact with you anymore due to the obvious ragebait and i also just want a good faith argument

[vestal eagle]

Idk, the gorelabs mod makes it so you can break joes jaw and snap his bones, you can also cave his head in and rip his jaw off, and smash his eyeballs

Kinda messed up

[wind sluice]

😭

[hybrid granite]

well soon you can do that in half sword too

[vestal eagle]

But like, what's the argument?

[wind sluice]

Just gonna have everybody else say the same points ✌️

[drowsy finch]

Why is bro using big words

[wind sluice]

Don’t say modern lens around him yo

[tired tulip]

i studied the intro and i had an interesting argument in my head
"why arent women in half sword?", in the current build in game the onyl solid lore we have is the intro right?

[vestal eagle]

No, the entire game is historical, the world is historical, the lore is actual world history

The only lore you get is for the Baron

[nocturne tangle]

We hope, we cope that we can even get an update soon, and this guy wants Willies with boobs

You know what man I might just respect that

[tired tulip]

frankenburg is described by the narrator in the intro as a society where the social ladder is built by the person who fights the strongest (doesnt actually say that but is implied by certain lines)

[tired tulip]

nice, yet only the set piece of frankenburg austria, and the arms and weapons is used right now

[idle crest]

Regardless though of what Joan of arc was burned for on paper it doesnt matter.
Joan of arc was burned because she was leading the French to victory against the British, the British were absolutely fucking terrified of her because she couldn't fucking die. So as soon as the burgundians captured her and sold her to the British they took the opportunity to eliminate her. In doing so they tried to portray her as some evildoer or witch to try and counter the saintly reputation she was getting. This all backfired and led even the burgundians to eventually betray the English, winning the 100 years war for the French.

[vestal eagle]

Yes, but you need to look at historical context, did any women fight in tournaments back then?

[tired tulip]

okay, lets look at historical context
did a jester ring lead fights?

did a peasant with zero noble background ever become a baron or a lord of high standing?

[tired tulip]

or maybe, a literal street urchin?

(oh and by the way, i never wanted to bring up joan de'arc in my arguments..

[wind sluice]

Yes surprisingly

[idle crest]

I'd imagine some did, rarely, I feel I might have manuscript art showing it, but even then it would be so rare that programming it and designing it in a game would be almost pointless

[wind sluice]

I just searched it up

[vestal eagle]

Maybe, and again, maybe, it was such a short period and so long ago you can't really narrow the details down to who lead ring fights or rose to power, but one thing you can identify is that no women ever fought because that become a long standing rule well into the 1600's

[vestal eagle]

I'm like 99% sure no women ever fought

[drowsy finch]

Well thats kinda broad

And sweeping

[idle crest]

There are never unbroken rules

[vestal eagle]

What did it say

[wind sluice]

Sadly can’t send screenshots

Here’s copy paste

[nocturne tangle]

We didn't let women do MMA until like 15 years ago I wouldnt be surprised that they werent letting women beat eachother with polearms

[wind sluice]

Yes, jesters in the 15th century (and throughout the medieval period) played a dangerous role that often involved leading or taking part in "ring fights," which served as psychological warfare before main combat. While they did not typically "lead" an army into battle in the conventional sense, they would ride or walk in front of their army, provoking the enemy and inciting combat before the official engagement began.

[drowsy finch]

Oh i didn’t say that/mean to say that

[tired tulip]

alright, jake, your taking a town of Frankenburg austria, and your incorporating a town (you can watch the intro on youtube) where it is said that most if not all arguments and dispuites were handled by violence.

also in the same intro

it is said there is zero honest work, only the tourneys to make money off of and the fights

[drowsy finch]

I just meant fighting in a local tourney or something

[tired tulip]

that second part is implied

[tired tulip]

i love ai overview slop keep it coming

[idle crest]

Lol

[wind sluice]

Saying it like that makes it any less irrelevant 😭

Hate it or love it I’d trust the ai overview more than you

[idle crest]

I really wouldn't trust ai overview at all

[tired tulip]

which is why i shall ignore you due to your lack of good faith my friend

[vestal eagle]

Are you ok with AI overview or do you want the actual sources? Because the overview tells me that in the 1400s, no women ever fought professionally in Frankenburg Austria

[wind sluice]

tips fedora

Do you want an upvote

[nocturne tangle]

Yeah man, didn't you know AI stands for "Always Informed"

[tired tulip]

jake please for the love of god just read what i put out

[drowsy finch]

I love Al, he’s always making

jokes

[idle crest]

Ai overview gets historical information wrong on an aggressive level.

[drowsy finch]

This works better with the a capitalized

[vestal eagle]

I did, but again, my sources tell me that no women ever fought in the 1400's in Frankenburg

[drowsy finch]

Pretend that is what i did

[vestal eagle]

I'm currently looking at the actual sources

[nocturne tangle]

Allen Iverson knows alot about european medieval history

[drowsy finch]

That Al guy is so weird…

[tired tulip]

[wind sluice]

Sure but this time it’s given me an actual source from an actual medieval battle that occurred

i dont mean to sound like a total fool but i am purely talking about the context of the game, which takes points from history.

[vestal eagle]

[wind sluice]

“I will in good faith ignore you”

[tired tulip]

in the intro theres a precedence for the feudal structure does not exist or is incredibly loose.

[wind sluice]

Genuinely talking like a Redditor

[vestal eagle]

Exactly, and if history dictates that no women fought back then, than what is your point?

[tired tulip]

you can notice that all my points begin with "in the intro"

[lavish blade]

borther

[tired tulip]

your taking things incredibly literally bro

[vestal eagle]

Again, the mold is getting to my brain

[idle crest]

I just don't see the point In trying to justify putting the work in to add women into half sword when at most your chances of seeing one in the ring would be the same as winning the lottery

[nocturne tangle]

Settle this in a half-sword split screen fight with candlesticks

[tired tulip]

this is a what-if sir

[tired tulip]

all i want is a good faith argument about one of my favorite games

[vestal eagle]

So your arguing about having a what-if conversation about whether or not women should be in Half Sword?

I don't get it

[drowsy finch]

Yeah thats where i was completely lost

[small fog]

He wants them in half sword to fight them, not play as a woman.

I dont wanna beat up women.

[vestal eagle]

I think he's lost

[tired tulip]

this entire game if you think about it is a what-if, jake, you literally start out as a peasant and become baron by title alone

[wind sluice]

No they are in many ways trying to stay accurate as possible

[vestal eagle]

Not entirely impossible

[hybrid granite]

"translated from polish" is all i needed to hear

[vestal eagle]

And that's literally the gameplay loop

[tired tulip]

alright, let me pull a you and look it up if a beggar became a lord

[drowsy finch]

Must be… east poland…

[tired tulip]

in feudal euro[e

[idle crest]

Why is this a thing ?

[tired tulip]

do you see the issue?

you will find maybe one instance of this happening because half sword, despite how much we love to say how historically accurate it is, fundamentally due to the gameplay loop is not accurate

[tired tulip]

and we dont hate it for it do we?

[vestal eagle]

If the game were to be the most realistic thing ever, your Willie would die on the first mission by not wearing shoes or socks and walking in the liquid shit on the ground that has sharp rocks and shit in it

[tired tulip]

alright so we agree on something

[drowsy finch]

Vagueposting 🥹

[vestal eagle]

So you want the possibility of there being women in Half Sword?

[vestal eagle]

Polish people

[drowsy finch]

kurwa

[idle crest]

If I was a medieval woman I think a fight to the death against some man is just about the last thing I'd willingly sign up for.

[tired tulip]

i hate going in circles but let me say it one more time
i think as a what-if women were playable fighters in half sword, now if you would please read what kind of argument i am putting out besides us being on step 1 the whole damn time

[hybrid granite]

true, you'd be better off making food and washing clothes than beating dudes with hammers

[vestal eagle]

Also, beggars were knighted by kings, and eventually ended up becoming lords of certain plots of land in which they had their own slaves and squires

[wind sluice]

“I’m so poor and destitute let me sign up for a bare hands tourne

[idle crest]

Is that your takeaway from what I said?

[tired tulip]

yes after valiant acts of service to a king, last time i checked a baron which has no legitimacy cant knight people.

i urge you to watch the intro

[wind sluice]

No no I implore you

[nocturne tangle]

He can do whatever he wants after he’s clobbered half the town under the weight of his Willie

[hybrid granite]

i think yeah, i dont really know what takeaway means cause english is my 2nd language

[tired tulip]

IM GLAD WE AGREE ON SOMETHING

by medieval standards this is outright treason!

a baron with zero legitimacy can do fuck all and anything because he is the defacto leader by pure strength alone

[vestal eagle]

Ok, let's say what-if women were in Half Sword, I think whoever fought women as a male Willie that's like 7 feet tall and built like Batman would be weird, as they just want to mutilate women

[nocturne tangle]

It’s when you order food in a restaurant and take it home

[hybrid granite]

no thats takeout

[drowsy finch]

What if half sword two dropped tomorrow …

[tired tulip]

that's implying that not only the average height would be 7 feet even though in game the max height is 6 feet..

[vestal eagle]

Lots of people edit save files

[small fog]

Halfsword, the game where you mutilate women with your willie, doesn't have a nice ring to it.

[hybrid granite]

not everyone is dusan the mighty to be 7 feet tall

[tired tulip]

we're getting off topic
that's like saying god themself came down and made someone 7 feet tall

[vestal eagle]

I made a feedback threat earlier today about the same thing, and then I thought about it, that would be horrible

why are we focusing on a "batman" willie mutilating women? thats just life in frankenburg.

[nocturne tangle]

What if I…. halved my sword into two

[hybrid granite]

i mean i am very good with english but i still struggle with words, cause i never used takeaway in a conversation and never learnt about it anywhere

[nocturne tangle]

The cylinder must remain intact

[drowsy finch]

You’red have to make another handle…. Unless you have to make two halves of a handle… wowie…

[tired tulip]

go watch the intro
https://youtu.be/FbQOUCWx6Fo

[vestal eagle]

Idk why I'm focused on Batman, but the idea of someone being like this in game would be terrifying to say the least

[idle crest]

There's a pretty large natural disadvantage to being a woman against a man in hand to hand combat on average.

That's not to say the gap can't be closed, hell me and the woman I'm currently seeing have had many fun scraps and they all end with me being choked out. But In a general sense they're at a disadvantage.

[tired tulip]

agreeable

you can be built like batman in game

as i was saying

[drowsy finch]

It is imperative that the sword is halved

[hybrid granite]

yeah i agree with you

[tired tulip]

women in half sword would be interesting

[vestal eagle]

Idk man

I'm going to go self care and go to bed y'all gn

[drowsy finch]

Go care youself dude

[tired tulip]

the whole story of half sword is about classes not mattering, your just here to get paid before you die, social standards be damned

[nocturne tangle]

What if I just wanna mutilate everyone equally

[wind sluice]

😭

[tired tulip]

historically, the pfenning, a currency in the HRE would be only worth what they weigh

[vestal eagle]

Next argument, "Should we have kids in Half Sword?"

[drowsy finch]

Thragg would never do that to anyone

Keep my grand regents name out yo goddamn mouth

[tired tulip]

entirely logically speaking
"why would a woman ever step place in an accursed place like frankenburg?"

i don't know!

[drowsy finch]

To make you drink poison for two sheckels

[nocturne tangle]

I think we should maybe have kids in real life

[tired tulip]

why would a man ever step place in an accursed place like frankenburg?

gender norms be damned

[neat tundra]

flee their enemies, debts, their wives.
that lad over there is probably fleeing all three.

[tired tulip]

fire voice acting m8

[neat tundra]

jessy did the intro, I did the screams.

[tired tulip]

i know

[neat tundra]

ivan did the voicelines

[tired tulip]

my hats still be offf to you

[nocturne tangle]

Son😭😭😭

[drowsy finch]

He didn’t do that

[idle crest]

It's a strange feeling cuddling with a woman who you know could probably kill you at any moment if she decided to. 😳

[nocturne tangle]

People literally live their entire lives in Gotham, and other fictional hellholes like New Jersey to be fair

[tired tulip]

frankenburg's entire core is like cleveland

or illinois

[nocturne tangle]

That hits close to home brother

[drowsy finch]

Genuinely thank god NJ isn’t real

[nocturne tangle]

I’m from NE Ohio

[tired tulip]

rest in peace

if a woman is in a town where the only way to obtain coin, with zero honest work

is by fighting

[nocturne tangle]

I genuinely don’t know what I would do if a state that’s whole personality is based off of being the armpit of Pennsylvania and the undercheese of New York actually existed

[tired tulip]

alright

the seer is a woman, and she gets coin through religious indulgence services.

[tired tulip]

i thought the seer was a man

SO THERE IS WOMEN IN HALF SWORD

HAH!

[idle crest]

Worlds first ever profession so they say.

[drowsy finch]

At least it’s not delaware

[drowsy finch]

The conversation was in reference to combatants ….

Thats not a gotcha

[tired tulip]

pick a side

damn

[drowsy finch]

[tired tulip]

[drowsy finch]

I’d say the worlds first profession was throwing rocks at birds

[nocturne tangle]

Some would say it was throwing rocks at your own brother

[neat tundra]

the first profession was creating throwing rocks

or finding them

[idle crest]

Rain did that

[drowsy finch]

Thank god

I mean caine

Cane

Axe cane …

[tired tulip]

Capon

[drowsy finch]

Thats so cool

[nocturne tangle]

Raising Canes

[drowsy finch]

Well uhnmm the first profession was actually uhh MAKING rocks

Take that

[tired tulip]

did you know if you die in the abyss game mode, once you go back to progression mode you start in the abyss?

like???

[drowsy finch]

Why did raising caine kill that chicken with a rock…

[tired tulip]

idk why im in the abyss bruh

[lavish blade]

??

[drowsy finch]

You heard axe cane and came running

I’ve never been more proud in my whole life

[neat tundra]

obviously you created a widow the previous day and she killed you in your sleep.

[nocturne tangle]

And then Cane said “It’s raising time” and then started caning all over the place

[lavish blade]

axe cane not happening

[tired tulip]

by jove!

[viscid schooner]

started raising caines as soon as he was abel

[tired tulip]

[tired tulip]

Capon, why were you playing half sword for more than 20 minutes yesterday?

[nocturne tangle]

Say that again

I’m ngl that was a fucking bar

[tired tulip]

i get a notification saying your playing half sword everytime i get on aswell

[nocturne tangle]

Best thing I’ve heard in here

[tepid vault]

is there any news when there gonna be a new update ?

[drowsy finch]

He raised his caine in opposition to the feathered bipeds ….

[nocturne tangle]

Sometime between now and the Viltrumite invasion

[neat tundra]

trying to figure out the inner workings of the game and testing mods to see if my changes worked.

[tired tulip]

what mods you got?

[lavish blade]

what r u trying to figure out

[tired tulip]

i hope bosses come back to the abyss

[lavish blade]

i am a feathered biped

[nocturne tangle]

“As the red flock stare Cane down, they figured he was too chicken to rise against them, much to their dismay, Cane was bred different”

[neat tundra]

blunt damage for EA.
they didn't buff the weapons, they nerfed willies natural resistance to blunt damage. which couldve gone smoothly if UassetGUi would stop saying it cant find a schema for photomode everytime I try to save it. (I did not touch anything related to photomode)

and for the demo I'm trying to find where player equipment pools are stored.
the npcs have their own equipment per tier, and stuff like the blued armor set is exclusive to the player besides one boss (I think)

[tired tulip]

does half sword enhancer now work for EA?

[quick citrus]

you are a chicken

[lavish blade]

wrong

i am bird

[quick citrus]

chicken is bird

[lavish blade]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1113462309776531456/1465746240741572639/togif.gif

this thing

[quick citrus]

what

[wind sluice]

How is this possible

[nocturne tangle]

How it feels to wait for Half Sword Update

[tepid vault]

thanks man this make sit realy clear for me

[nocturne tangle]

Fowl creature

[neat tundra]

I was working on a general rebalance of the demo, and now I'm trying to make a ultra simple blunt damage nerf for EA by changing whatever values the devs did.
since changing every weapon value takes too long, and they didnt change every weapon.
they nerfed willie instead.

[lavish blade]

isn't fowl a germanic word for bird

from middle english fugel

[nocturne tangle]

I’m not sure the language origin of the word, but it still means bird in modern English if that’s the case

[idle crest]

Sometimes me and my homie go up to people running armour displays at medieval shows just to ask them why blunt weapons were the counter to plate armour... to piss them off lol

Or we might ask them if their campfire is a real fire

Actually I've had people come up to me while Im in full plate armour telling me about how incredibly effective they think maces were against it, and it's pretty fuckin annoying.

[tired tulip]

bring a mace

tell them to hit you with it

[idle crest]

Ehhh would require unnecessary amounts of buffing to remove the marks

[neat tundra]

Why didnt the 9000 peasants in the 1358 Jacquerie revolt in France use blunt weapons against the 40 knights?
Were they stupid?

[tired tulip]

worth it

[tired tulip]

1. it was probably the most common weapon
2. it dents the armor
3. 9k peasants against 40 knights lol
4. big smash against metal man

also

[neat tundra]

Based on my experience in half sword a simple hammer tap on the arm wouldve disabled any knight permanently and knocked him down.

[tired tulip]

1340 to 1460 french armaments

[idle crest]

Are you fr?

[tired tulip]

yes twin! im for real!

im not a harness fencer, i mostly do unarmored

so idk the ins and outs

[neat tundra]

I totally could've just reverse gripped a spear and drove it through their thin metal chest plate by doing it really really hard if I replaced the spear tip with the beak of the Lucerne hammer.

[tired tulip]

ser capon

thats how you get beat to death by an angry pollaxe wielding maniac

[neat tundra]

Nah id win, blunt weapons bro.

[tired tulip]

a spear isnt a blunt weapon

[idle crest]

One of the suits of armour I'm working on is going to be a fairly standard milanese-esque suit made of 2mm thickness steel, once I've finished it, I'll let people hit it with maces.

[neat tundra]

If it fails to penetrate it will be a blunt weapon by that point.
Which is an upgrade if half sword is to be believed.

[tired tulip]

im looking into getting harness fighting, maybe one day i'll be able to make my own suit of 15th century armor

one of those cavalry armors

[idle crest]

Maybe I'll try to case harden the suit and then we'll see if people can even dent it

[tired tulip]

pauldrons my belove

[tired tulip]

any tips on making armor?

[idle crest]

Fuckin send it

[tired tulip]

yes sire

[idle crest]

Can't make armour if you a bitch, gotta take risks

[tired tulip]

DUDE.

i love helmets with the human designs like this i know they're probaly impractical as fuck but look at this bro

[idle crest]

I'd love to see someone try and hurt someone with a mace who's wearing 2mm case hardened 1470s harness.

[neat tundra]

To simulate a standard half sword combat scenario, wear the suit and walk casually into a polearm.
Dont have people swing it, its overkill.
Just walk into it, according to half sword that should cause loud bone breaking sounds and you will stagger and be unable to perform a counter attack to this completely stationary one.

[tired tulip]

this is pure fiction gang

[idle crest]

Fun fact, these suits was made by a guy called Terry England. I've got a sallet and a breastplate in my room right now with his signature on them.

[neat tundra]

And the armor shall be dented beyond repair (until you pay the innkeeper 44 pfennings)

[tired tulip]

really?

maybe for my first attempt making armor i'll make a terry england set

[idle crest]

Nahhh start with trying to do accuracy

There's a lot of freedom to make changes to a suit over time if you use modern means.

[idle crest]

Makes armour nigh undentable

[neat tundra]

I like helmets that arent trying to look like faces but still look like faces as a consequence of needing a place to see and breathe out of.

[idle crest]

I've got a work in progress pauldron section made from mild steel and I've shaped it so much that I cannot fucking dent it anymore, it's only mild steel but its been work hardened to the point of being completely unworkable and I'm going to have to heat it up really hot.

[neat tundra]

No, half sword says you are wrong.
Every impact dents it as a crumple zone to protect the user, minus the protecting the user part.
Half sword is a simulation game

[tired tulip]

i'll look up a way to make armor via plastic

like those larp swords
