goddamn I want some fried chicken

#

think an aerial enemy would be out of place in Dusk?

jade root
#

ariel enemies yould be weird

#

unless it was a crow enemy or something

acoustic oriole
#

maybe a squishy murder of crows or something

jade root
#

like a super weak lost soul

#

it would take 2 bullets max

prisma halo
#

anyway it's 2AM and I'm done shitposting so I'm gonna sleep now

#

night guys

acoustic oriole
#

yep

jade root
#

night

thorn trout
#

I'm awake now, what did I miss?

acoustic oriole
#

good night

#

nothing much, David

prisma halo
#

you missed me shitposting about the meatlass

acoustic oriole
#

the usual

jade root
#

you missed nothing

thorn trout
#

@prisma halo just the usual then

prisma halo
#

pretty much

acoustic oriole
#

yep

prisma halo
#

oh and uhh

#

a bug

jade root
#

talking about how there should be crow enemies

acoustic oriole
#

brb

prisma halo
#

with weapon switching

thorn trout
#

what'sx the bug?

prisma halo
#

I eventually figured out that it happens with all weapons if you press Q in the window of time before you can fire again

#

and with that, I sleep

thorn trout
#

oh hmm

#

I'll look into that

willow flax
#

like ill lurk for 4 days strightt and nothing

#

but the one day i have to leave the house

#

boom

#

i think that was the 2nd key since i came here weeks ago lol

#

well anyway, can someone tell me about the endless mode ? 😃

exotic ibex
#

you spawn, things spawn. you kill things, you pick up shit you need. only thing out of the ordinary is that theres only a few health drops that dont respawn. most of your health pick ups will be +1's off of enemies

willow flax
#

your playing for time or score ?

exotic ibex
#

it tracks kills, time, and score.

willow flax
#

leaderboards at the moment ?

exotic ibex
#

none that i know of outside of people keeping track themselves and posting it here

quiet rose
#

its been a super busy month in NB

willow flax
#

ic

quiet rose
#

so dont expect keys till all these game conventions are done

exotic ibex
#

past three days theres been at least one posted

willow flax
#

dont think im angry or anything im just explaining my frusteration

#

😅

exotic ibex
#

i got lucky and probably made dave laugh with my willingness to trade my mother for a key.

quiet rose
#

my original offer to dave was to put my original copy of doom in a pentagram and light on fire

#

for dusk

#

(i have 2 copies)

exotic ibex
#

how dare you not do it

quiet rose
#

i didnt do it because he said no lol

exotic ibex
#

HOW DARE HE DENY YOUR OFFER

willow flax
#

i think the last key before that was V day

quiet rose
#

im sure once the next build is put on steam, keys will go out frequently again

#

much more to test, etc

willow flax
#

heres to hoping

exotic ibex
#

im foaming at the mouth for the next build

quiet rose
#

when i first joined, there were only like 20-30 people here. keys were going out nightly

exotic ibex
#

im really hoping theres another endless map in it.

quiet rose
#

there is

exotic ibex
#

hype intensifies

quiet rose
#

we'd be getting whatver build was used at pax west + whatever is added at pax est

#

I wonder if the pre-pre-pre alpha level will be poof

#

since we would be getting a bit of e1

willow flax
#

maybe i can beg him when i go to pax east in a week

quiet rose
#

@mild ginkgo and i are like 45 minutes away from Boston/pax east

#

its killing me inside tbh

#

i might just skip getting nier and horizon. get a pax east ticket frmo stubhub (Hopefully they go down in price) and go

willow flax
#

you should

exotic ibex
#

nier is a platinum game so its gonna be short

willow flax
#

i cant wait to try this and Strafe

exotic ibex
#

plus i've heard its more rpg-ish than any platinum game has ever been.

#

so

#

go to pax

#

pick up a copy of nier later

quiet rose
#

i like rpg tho

#

plus the stubhub prices are rediculous right now

#

it would be like 2/3rd of my disability check

exotic ibex
#

they arent going to go down

#

its only going to go up

quiet rose
#

ive had opposite experiences with stubhub like that

#

the closer it is to event, it goes lower

#

but idk

exotic ibex
#

hope im wrong then

quiet rose
#

if anything, id be getting them a week before the event

#

and hopefully 500 can get one too

#

if they are cheap enough, ill just get one for him so i dont have to go alone

exotic ibex
#

then go hang out with dave

#

then get drunk after?

quiet rose
#

i cant get drunk away from home

exotic ibex
#

rip

quiet rose
#

like, i can get drunk in providence, thats 24 minutes away

#

but some place ive never been before? no way

feral solar
#

you live near providence?

jade root
#

i dont believe in dusk therefor david shouldnt be online

exotic ibex
#

behead those who insult david

jade root
#

david is ugly

lol i love it

thorn trout
#

haha that's great :D

thorn trout
#

controversial opinion: Doom movie wasn't awful

past linden
#

I said that yesterday

slate edge
#

Better if it wasnt marketed and called "Doom"

#

Overwise I found it to be pretty average, pacing was all over the place

#

And it barely had any action

#

Portman was the best part of the movie tho, almost every scene with him was good.

past linden
#

The FPS scene was rad as hell

#

That alone made the movie worth watching

slate edge
#

Eh, it was alright, short lived

thorn trout
#

I liked watching The Rock. He was obviously having a blast with the roll

#

*role

crimson folio
#

Which is what Hardcore Henry sought out to do.

slate edge
#

Portman was the best character though.

thorn trout
#

yeah it wasn't a great movie at all, but it was like "ehh, fine b-quality sci fi horror/action film"

slate edge
#

It would have been better if it wasnt Doom

past linden
#

Was having a bad case of deja vu and just wanted to be sure i wasn't in the Matrix

slate edge
#

Like, if it was called something else and maybe didnt leave me with bland-ass hero man, it could have been good imo

thorn trout
#

also controversial opinion: The Matrix (yes the first one) isn't great.

past linden
#

Boooo

#

Booooooooooooo

austere egret
#

How do you know it wasn't?

slate edge
#

The first matrix film isnt the best film ever, i admit the start and ending are a bit slow, but the action shots are good, especially the lobby scene

thorn trout
#

there are like two good scenes. Otherwise it's just dull characters spouting dull dialogue abot Baby's First Eastern Philosophy

slate edge
#

Its a fun movie in a way

#

its silly

past linden
#

I'm not saying it's a masterpiece or anything, but i still think it's a great movie

#

I mean, it's no Drive, but it's still fun

thorn trout
#

I should back up... as a dumb action film I think it's fine, and all the action scenes are awesome, but it's not like some artistic milestone

slate edge
#

It entertained. Served its purpose, wouldnt say its a classic, but definitely a fun time.

willow flax
#

"Get out" was actually pretty awesome

#

that was a very fun watch yesterday

past linden
#

I completely agree with you there david

slate edge
#

Matrix isnt really a smart film xD

past linden
#

You're not wrong

slate edge
#

Now....Primer.....

thorn trout
#

is Get Out good? I'm intrigued by it but (without dipping into bad conversation territory) I'm a little put off by what its social subtext seems to be

#

Primer is very smart

willow flax
#

no it was actually reallyyy good

past linden
#

As always i'm just gonna sit back and suggest Drive, and Nightcrawler

thorn trout
#

I have seen both, both are great

past linden
#

^

slate edge
#

Primer is a mindfuck, but thats not necessarily a bad thing.

willow flax
#

yea both of those are good

thorn trout
#

Has anyone here bothered with The Neon Demon?

past linden
#

Yea

slate edge
#

Nupe

past linden
#

It was... not bad, but not up to his normal standards

thorn trout
#

I think if it's any indication, he needs to stick with adapting rather than writing :P

#

weirdly I didn't hate it

#

but I think that's because I have a really soft spot for nutso art films

#

Lynch is one of my favorite directors, and The Neon Demon was definitely going in a Lynch direction at some points

#

it was like 3/4ths really dull (but beautifully filmed) nothing, then like 30 minutes of insanity. But even the insanity just felt like "ehh, this is weird and messed up, whatever." It didn't have any real weight or power behind it.

past linden
#

I had similar feelings, it was one of those things where i left the theater and didn't think about it again

#

Unlike Drive

#

I rewatch drive once or twice a month

thorn trout
#

Drive worked really well

#

but he also didn't write Drive

#

both movies of his I've seen that he wrote didn't work for me

#

The Neon Demon and Bronson

#

Although admittedly Tom Hardy was FANTASTIC in Bronson, as he always is

past linden
#

Didn't see it so i can't say

thorn trout
#

The Neon Demon is really fun to summarize for people though

#

"It's about the LA Fashion industry, then lesbian necrophiliac cannibals show up"

mild ginkgo
#

i fuckin LOVED Bronson

#

but yeah neon demon wasnt so good

slate edge
#

lol

quiet rose
#

bronson was amazing

thorn trout
#

was the movie amazing though, or was it just Tom Hardy who was amazing? Because what I remnember is being wowed by his performance, and being completely bored by everything else

mild ginkgo
#

i loved the movie

#

it told the story of a man

#

so RESOLUTE IN HIS PRINCIPALS

#

that he was able to punch his way through the legal system

#

and come out clean on the other side

austere egret
#

It was... odd to say the least, but I liked it.

thorn trout
#

oh lol I just realized this is Dusk chat

#

OOPS

mild ginkgo
thorn trout

I'M A GREAT MOD

Have you ever seen FPS?

thorn trout
#

say wat?

verbal sand

no

austere egret

no

verbal sand

sell us o it

crimson folio

exotic ibex
#

that looks like the kind fo bad i can get behind

crimson folio
#

made by like, 3 people

jade root
#

Yeah

#

Like

#

Looks like stupid fun

#

Similar to hardcore henry

austere egret
#

looks bad in a good and fun way

#

if that makes any sense

verbal sand
#

yeah

#

ill watch it with a bud casually

#

best way to watch something like this

#

tho they were showing something that looked like a retro shooter

#

is there some game tie-in

crimson folio
#

no

#

its completly "original" in that sense, its based on the whole 90's Doom-y shooter culture,

verbal sand
#

well yeah

crimson folio
#

including bad Cut-scenes

#

and a Hud

verbal sand
#

i was thinking like they relaese a game with it

crimson folio
#

Would be great, but nah

jade root
#

My only complaint with it is that they could do much better gore for something way cheaper than bad CGI

verbal sand
#

the movie kindato me seems like some passion project

crimson folio
#

welll, not everything in this is CGI gore, but they are only 3 pleps, the movie is rather old

jade root
#

We should prolly move to general btw

crimson folio
#

and it was completly self funded

verbal sand
#

i thought it was genral

#

in general its another talk about movies

#

so might aswell stay here

jade root
#

Suit yourself

verbal sand
#

fine lets move

crimson folio
slate edge
#

General2

verbal sand
#

let's create another general

willow flax
#

im assuming they dont want any streaming of the beta version ?

mild ginkgo
#

of what? dusk?

#

because you can totally stream it

#

theyve actively encouraged media of it

quiet rose
#

you can stream it but if you give it out we will lynch you

mild ginkgo
#

lots of us have streamed it

willow flax
#

oh awesome

#

good to know

mild ginkgo
#

like that sick tablet stream

thorn trout
#

@prisma halo they're built in

prisma halo
#

aww

#

does Unity let you texture them at least?

thorn trout
#

I'm assuming so.

#

the UI system lets you do a ton

mild ginkgo
#

unity has full theming for that stuff

prisma halo
#

good

mild ginkgo
#

you can totally texture them etc

#

custom scroll behavior too

atomic egret
#

that's rad

#

you'd never know it was unity if it was though because whenever you see shit games made in unity it's always just the default ui stuff

proven raptor
#

found a bug in the Pre Alpha build of DUSK

#

is there anyone relevant i can mention or PM about it?

atomic egret
#

you can @ dave (el oshcuro) or pm him on twitter? It's likely the bug's already been reported though.

proven raptor
#

When I started the demo level my character moved all the way to the back of the room on his own and then got pinned and got killed

#

it was fixed when i respawned though

#

@gleaming berry Idk if it was reported already but hopefully it helps

atomic egret
#

I wouldn't bother reporting if you can't consistently repro it

proven raptor
#

well

#

I tried shrug

mild ginkgo
#

sounds like you just had an input error

#

do you have a controller plugged into your pc?

#

where you holding any key when the demo started?

atomic egret
#

actually it probably would have been better if you tagged jefequeso too

proven raptor
#

oops

atomic egret
#

my bad

mild ginkgo
#

anyways, its probably accounted for, the build is many moons old

proven raptor
#

@mild ginkgo I have an xbox one controller bluetoothed to my computer but i was playing other games before it and it had no input

#

so that wouldn't have been an issue

#

wasn't using any keys before spawning

#

I don't believe my controller has any drift on it so it couldn't have caused it

mild ginkgo
#

i would likely attribute it to the controller, but yeah, afaik i havent heard of this one before, although im fairly certain input has been cleaned up considerably since the build you are playing was released

#

we can tag @thorn trout and he'll see it when he wakes up

#

ty for the bug report

#

just stick around, youll get a key

foggy wadi
#

you people are gonna cry lurker whenever someone gets a key because he wanted to play a cool game

mild ginkgo

No not at all

lavish galleon
#

new book

foggy wadi
#

o

lavish galleon
#

therefore new game

foggy wadi
#

hopefully its not made as poorly as the first

lavish galleon
#

also true dat. I might dump a few in general later when I get another HB pack or something

foggy wadi
#

the first game is locked at 35 fov iirc

#

thats my biggest issue with it

crimson folio
#

huh? They remastered it

foggy wadi
#

oh did they

lavish galleon
#

the remaster is a sexy 90

foggy wadi
#

oh sick

crimson folio
#

yeah Metro Redux

#

both of them got reduxed

foggy wadi
#

thats probably good then

crimson folio
#

scroll down

#

unnamed metro project

lavish galleon
#

it still runs like a puckered cats anus though

foggy wadi
#

lmao

crimson folio
#

nah

foggy wadi
#

of course

crimson folio
#

runs good for me

foggy wadi
#

my pc cant run anything anyways

crimson folio
#

o

#

lol

lavish galleon
#

I had issues with it on my 680 but havnt played since I got my 1070

foggy wadi
#

i play rainbow six on lowest settings and a small window stretched and can barely even see enemies

lavish galleon
#

lol

#

gg

crimson folio
#

Im building a new build with a ryzen chip

lavish galleon
#

I remember those days

#

Laptop playing CS:S at 400x600

foggy wadi
#

lmao

atomic egret
#

@crimson folio you doing ryzen 7 or waiting till q2 for ryzen 5?

crimson folio
#

I dont feel like preordering a 500$ cpu without knowing its performance, cant believe thats even a thing

#

R7

lavish galleon
#

Yeah

#

Ive learnt to stay away from AMD CPUs

#

most the returns we get are AMDs

crimson folio
#

I mean the FX line was pretty good for its time man

lavish galleon
#

a few bunged Intels that idiots have put in wrong

#

those...

mild ginkgo
#

5000+ BE

atomic egret
#

fx is a lot better now than it was at launch too

lavish galleon
#

The FX cards are the ones I usually have to pry appart with a flathead haha

mild ginkgo
#

Will always have a place in my heart

atomic egret
#

athlon will always have a place in my heart

#

first cpu in my first pc

crimson folio
#

Maybe intel wont charge 350$ for a quad core chip anymore

lavish galleon
#

Pentium will always have a place in my bin

atomic egret
#

I hope so richi

acoustic oriole
#

just woke up, and holy crap that shower of screenshots

crimson folio
#

Im all about whatever gives me the best performance

#

right now its looking like Ryzen

#

because Kaby Lake is just poor

mild ginkgo
#

I'll wait for the 2nd

crimson folio
#

same

atomic egret
#

intel's struggling with the 10nm proccess

crimson folio
#

I can imagine so

#

And maybe amd nails it with VEGA too

atomic egret
#

difficult to get it running stable

mild ginkgo
#

I'm skeptical of ryzen because they've been talking about it for a fucking decade

crimson folio
#

1080ti will probably be around 800-900 usd

atomic egret
#

I think ryzen will be good but idk about vega

#

I'm not sure there's going to be much of an improvement

#

over polaris that is

crimson folio
#

What's Vega?

#

new AMD gpu tech

atomic egret
#

yeah

crimson folio
#

Woah, I'm falling behind

#

Thought so

#

If the r7 1700 actually turns out to be better than the 7700k

#

gg

mild ginkgo
#

Then it will have been worth the 11 year wait

atomic egret
#

if r5 runs as good as a 6500 I'll be stoked

#

or a 6600k

crimson folio
#

I bet the top of the line r5 will do it

#

maybe something even lower

#

Im thinking they're gonna announce chips that match 7600k performance and maybe even something to bridge the gap between 7600k and 7700k

#

Gotta say though the AM4 socket itself though looks pretty pathetic

#

pins on the cpu just trigger me

atomic egret
#

I can imagine them just bringing out an r7 1900 or something that's just lower tier one with more cores and a higher clock

crimson folio
#

r7 1900 seems like it would cost 550+ lol

#

If the R7 1800X really is that much of a beast, i'll buy it no problem

#

im selling my entire rig anyways to fund for a new one

atomic egret
#

I just want something to replace my 6300 that's not going to break the bank and still provides a decent enough improvement for me to justify it

crimson folio
#

like 120usd?

atomic egret
#

i live in Australia

crimson folio
#

ah shit

atomic egret
#

all tech is way more expensive here

crimson folio
#

I know

#

I feel for you man

atomic egret
#

cause new architecure means new mobo new ram and new cpu

crimson folio
#

yup

atomic egret
#

it'll be easy like $600 even if I get r5

crimson folio
#

mobos for AM4 are looking promising

#

they slacked on 990fx, really shitty boards

#

looking at this

atomic egret
crimson folio
#

christ

atomic egret
#

the place I get my pc stuff from doesnt have any mobos listed yet

crimson folio
#

ah

#

a shit ton of them come out 3/2 anyways

atomic egret
#

yeah

crimson folio
#

I'll be sticking to the Aorus boards

atomic egret
#

I have a cheapish asrock one right now

#

it's nothing special but it does the job

crimson folio
#

I feel you

#

Im running a 8320 at 4.7ghz with a 980Ti

#

with the MSI Gaming 970 motherboard

atomic egret
#

should have gotten a 970 lol

crimson folio
#

I had 2 of them at one point

atomic egret
#

so you had 7gb of vram? /s

crimson folio
#

hahah

#

ramgate

#

bad times for nvidia

atomic egret
#

obviously didnt hurt them too much

crimson folio
#

yeah lol

#

I sold my 970s like a week after I got em, got all my money back on them and just bought the 980ti

atomic egret
#

bit strange

#

howcome?

crimson folio
#

they were basically brand new, limited edition too

#

they were the anniversary MSI 970s

#

the green ones

#

my friend has an upgrade plan on his 980ti with micro center

#

he brings in his 980ti, pays the difference if there is one, and they hand him a 1080ti

atomic egret
#

that's pretty sweet

#

wish we had stuff like that

crimson folio
#

saves a ton

atomic egret
#

I'd kill for an ncix

#

microcenter seems pretty cool too

crimson folio
#

hell yeah

atomic egret
#

all the places to get PC stuff as far as I'm aware here (that aren't in the city) are online only

#

that's a pretty sexy looking case

crimson folio
#

I currently have the Corsair Graphite 760T

#

its awesome

atomic egret
#

I've just got a spec 01

crimson folio
#

I wish there were more full towers

#

I love em

atomic egret
#

I think the new in win infinity case looks pretty sick but apparently it's pretty pricey too

crimson folio
#

I heard it has flaws

#

its on gamer nexus youtube channel

#

issues with thermals

#

and cable management in it isnt that great

atomic egret
#

that's the last thing you want if you're spending a bunch of money on a case cause it looks good

crimson folio
#

looks badass though, no denying it

#

The Corsair Crystal series is fucking insane

#

too bad they couldnt get the cable management right

mild ginkgo
#

Bruh I've got a silverstone tj07 👌 the realest og case

crimson folio
#

ay

mild ginkgo
#

Fuck they're still do expensive

#

So

atomic egret
#

I used to have a bitfenix comrade

#

it sucked

mild ginkgo
#

I got it forever ago

atomic egret
#

has corsair ever made an ugly case

mild ginkgo
#

Yes

atomic egret
#

what's it called?

mild ginkgo
ornate imp
#

Oh my lord

atomic egret
#

eh

#

not as bad as I was expecting

mild ginkgo
#

It's ugly still

crimson folio
#

OMG PEOPLE, A BOMB

atomic egret
#

doesn't really reach my threshold for "ew wtf is that thing gross"

crimson folio
#

That's a case? Wtf

ornate imp
#

I dissagree, it looks like one of those Weather radio+flashlight+usb charger shit

mild ginkgo
atomic egret
crimson folio
#

oh god

ornate imp
mild ginkgo
#

That one is purposely meant to look like that building in Dubai though

crimson folio
#

Eww, what are those

#

leave it to lian li to make something that fucking ugly

#

ahhh

atomic egret
crimson folio
#

beautiful

#

LOL WTF

#

wtf

mild ginkgo
#

Corsair thought that edgy shit actually looked good, it wasn't intentionally goofy like those cases

crimson folio
#

doesnt apple have a pc that looks like a trash can?

atomic egret
#

HP does too now i think

crimson folio
#

some nonsense like that

#

There are disgusting, I'm getting out of here

hexed roost
#

that shit looks like a nose

crimson folio
#

horrible

atomic egret
#

alienware has some pretty fuck-ugly cases

crimson folio
#

lmfao

#

man thats ugly

#

why is alienware still a thing

atomic egret
#

shit cases for shit pcs

#

because idiots think "alienware is the best gaming pc you can buy" without doing any research

#

which is why people think pc gaming is expensive

ornate imp
#

I get irrationally angry when i see this case

mild ginkgo
#

Pornographic content

atomic egret
#

wish my cable management looked like that

mild ginkgo
#

Everyone does

#

We can't afford murderboxes however

atomic egret
mild ginkgo
#

Beat that

atomic egret
#

give me a minute

mild ginkgo
#

I used to have the non camo version of that case

atomic egret
#

do laptops count

mild ginkgo
#

Back in like 04

#

Sure why not

atomic egret
#

fuck

#

hold on

mild ginkgo
#

Classic

atomic egret
#

makes me want to puke every time

#

it looks like one of those fake children's toy laptops

B I N G O

mild ginkgo
hexed roost

that a friggin leapfrog

mild ginkgo

Nope

OLPC, it's designed for African children

#

It has a hand crank to power it

mild ginkgo

DOOM + SAMP

#

Someone did it

Rip African kids

They'll never know the beauty of GZDoom

GZDoom for Africa

mild ginkgo
#

Apparently you can charge it off car batteries roflmao

jade root
#

That's ghetto

mild ginkgo
#

Well.... Africa

jade root
#

I mean

#

Yeah...

#

Bet you can use the damn thing as a weapon

mild ginkgo
#

AND IT RUNS DOOM IN BLACK AND WHITE

hexed roost
#

how much does it weigh?

jade root
#

Prolly not much

mild ginkgo
#

3.48lbs

#

So actually a lot for what it is

jade root
#

Perfect swinging weight

mild ginkgo
#

Uses a nickel metal hydryde battery instead of lithium ion for charging and safety purposes

#

So much heavier

primal rivet
#

Sun Microsystems made a nice cases for their workstations. Shame on Oracle for shutting that shit down.

mild ginkgo
#

Shame on oracle for existing

#

Also I agree, sun cases were legit

#

Also the keyboard layouts for their workstations were mint

primal rivet
#

Yeah, very pleasant to type with.

atomic egret
#

surprised that there's been no conversation since I left for dinner tbh

autumn compass
#

im surprised dave is still here

atomic egret
#

he wasn't a minute ago

#

or he was away at least

ruby pewter
#

went to my emails

#

T__T

#

discord, thats not my name

exotic ibex
#

it is now you fucking nerd

stoic lava
#

you are us we are you

#

we are legion

acoustic oriole
#

I'd suggest switching to the darker theme, else your eyes will die

#

I didn't even know it's there till I was like 2 weeks into it

#

besides, if you have an "@ everyone", in NBI discord, you'd probably want to hear about it anyway, unless you already graduated from being a lurker :P

#

motherfucker, I didn't mean to tag everyone

exotic ibex
acoustic oriole
#

nice

exotic ibex
#

spent most of the run on 8 hp

acoustic oriole
#

that's where it's at its best

#

making use of every little +1 health

exotic ibex
#

i just realized the crossbow shoots through walls

#

gg

waxen crane
#

hacks

acoustic oriole
#

lol

#

I actually knew that before playing, but didn't realize it literally goes through every single wall

#

I thought it's only going through thin cover

#

plus I didn't know that you can deflect projectiles with the scythes

exotic ibex
#

u

#

fkn

#

wat

acoustic oriole
#

havin

#

trouble

#

speaking?

exotic ibex
#

i type like a moron who just got out of the first class for typing school

#

but lets go back to the issue at hand

#

THE SICKLES DEFLECTS PROJECTILES?

#

WAT

#

HOLY SHIT THE DO

#

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

acoustic oriole
#

LOL yeah I reacted the same

#

only I said all this to myself and settled for a simple "wot?" in chat

exotic ibex
#

THIS GAME CAN NOT BE FINISHED SOON ENOUGH HOLY FUCKING SHIT

acoustic oriole
#

I also didn't know of the cigar

exotic ibex
#

ill worry about that later

#

the sickles deflecting shots just changed the game

#

running away from 3+ scarecrows? backpedal and sickle spam

acoustic oriole
#

I bet it's not that easy to pull off, but it does come in handy FOR SURE

atomic egret
#

do cigar only

#

aka

#

the dave oshry run

acoustic oriole
#

soap is the most OP but

#

as it says in Shadow Warrior 2013

#

man who drops soap is super bummed

atomic egret
#

that's my favourite fortune cookie quote

#

i have a screenshot of it and it's my steam profile description

acoustic oriole
#

mine is "light travels faster than sound"

atomic egret
#

I also like

#

"to avoid innacuracies, shoot first, and call whatever you hit the target"

acoustic oriole
#

yep, that one is awesome too ^

atomic egret
acoustic oriole
#

seeing all these again makes my heart ache...

#

NO

#

I won't enter another SW2 rant

#

shut up

#

just SHUT UP fortyseven

atomic egret
#

no dont get a heart ache it'll make the demons explode

acoustic oriole
#

LOL

#

I didn't notice that actually XD

atomic egret
#

I expected zilla to say "sorry lo wang, I can't let you do that"

acoustic oriole
#

LOL

#

I want Styx sequel already

#

the first game isn't anything special in any way

#

but its lack of hand holding and gameplay is the kind of stealth games you don't see anymore

atomic egret
#

I've been playing thief 2014 recently because i have run out of stealth games that I have in my library

#

and man

acoustic oriole
#

thief 2014 well, it's a damn flawed game, but i found some fun in it

atomic egret
#

is it dissapointing

acoustic oriole
#

absolutely

#

and fuck those unskippable animations

atomic egret
#

it's sw2 all over again

#

some of it is cool

#

but

#

eugh

#

and how it goes 3rd person

#

thief 3 was one of the first pc games I remember playing

acoustic oriole
#

the first Styx is kinda like Thief deadly shadows, in the way that you're better off not getting into conflict and there's usually more than one way to get to certain areas

atomic egret
#

so it was just so dissapointing seeing how it went backwards

acoustic oriole
#

I love Thief Deadly Shadows

atomic egret
#

for some reason a lot fo people don't

acoustic oriole
#

I mean, yeah, the first ones are classic, but 3 is my favorite

atomic egret
#

I liked 2 wayyyy more than 1

autumn compass
#

welp

#

tried my best

atomic egret
#

1 had too much supernatural stuff for my liking to be honest

acoustic oriole
#

overzealous fans complained about the changes without seeing all the huge improvements

atomic egret
#

you gotta admit though for the time it has some pretty damn amazing graphics

acoustic oriole
#

yep

autumn compass
#

@exotic ibex whats your best?

exotic ibex
#

190 kills

acoustic oriole
#

Deadly Shadows is criminally underappreciated in my opinion

exotic ibex
#

atm

#

you're above me as of right now

atomic egret
#

the only stealth games I have are thief 1-4, dishonored, and some of the hitman games

acoustic oriole
#

ah cool

#

I like Dishonored a lot, but I don't think it's that amazing of a stealth game

atomic egret
#

unless you count wolf tno?

acoustic oriole
#

people called it the "Thief" of this generation, and I just painfully disagree

atomic egret
#

I felt like a light gem would have made a big improvement

#

and yeah it barely felt like thief at all

acoustic oriole
#

it gives you all these tools to be a master assassin

atomic egret
#

getting into fights wasn't a big deal at all

acoustic oriole
#

and punishes you if you use them

#

that chaos system is bullshit

atomic egret
#

there wasn't a spooky atmosphere about it either

acoustic oriole
#

people who complain about combat systems in stealth games kinda need to double check their complaints

#

if it's a stealth game you're not supposed to be fighting

#

you're supposed to GTFO and run

atomic egret
#

exactly

#

"a thief who lives and runs away lives to thieve another day"

acoustic oriole
#

^^^^^^^^

atomic egret
#

or something like that

acoustic oriole
#

yeah I remember that quote

#

the combat in Styx isn't great either

#

which is good

#

plus, you're pretty damn helpless if you're engaging more than one person in combat

#

unlike Dishonored where you can just call fuck it and murder everyone

atomic egret
#

especially dh2 i've heard

acoustic oriole
#

DH2 I honestly didn't see a difference for better or worse from the first one

#

except that the levels are far far more memorable

#

way better than 1 imo

#

my point is...I prefer a game that's better at doing one thing than doing a decent job of both at the same time

atomic egret
#

apparently the game is too easy with emily

acoustic oriole
#

it makes you feel like the game doesn't know what it wants to be

#

emily has kind of a strong set of powers, yeah

atomic egret
#

like a few years ago when everything started being open world with rpg elements

acoustic oriole
#

oh god, screw that

#

I actually started to miss linear mission-to-mission campaigns

#

which Styx has, btw. thank god

atomic egret
#

open world's nice and all but it can't just be all open world all the time

#

it never feels as tightly crafted as more linear level-to-level style games

#

like can anyone who's played skyrim honestly say that they remember any dungeon other than maybe bleak falls barrow?

acoustic oriole
#

yeah, a lot of games that really shouldn't go there, do open worlds

prisma halo
#

Yeah, I agree with Gilby

atomic egret
#

sw2...

prisma halo
#

yeah.... ;-;

atomic egret
#

it keeps coming back

prisma halo
#

it always comes back to SW2

acoustic oriole
#

the thing is it isn't even an open world

prisma halo
#

why you gotta depress me like that
