how are bosses going to be handled, are they going to be like in the shown alpha footage where its just beefier basic enemies or will they be actually interesting?
roflmao
90's fps bosses have never really been anything more than beefy enemies
icon of sin is an obvious exception
but also its a fucking wall
just cuz it aims to be retro, doesnt mean u gotta bring back the not so good stuff as well ya know?
im just hoping the game to be good, hence me being blunt with the questions
itd be a shame to spoil bosses here
They aren't going to be particularly complex but I aim to make them a little more than normal enemies.
doom 2016 bosses while flashy, are technically simple paterns
but yeah bosses dont have to be anything over the top, say a guy with a big blade swinging low (jump to dodge) and high (crouch/slide) with 1 or 2 extra patterns would be enough to be a compelling boss
thats a neat idea
also theres always the possibility of dusk expansion packs :^)))))))
(I WOULD BE SUPER HYPE ABOUT THOSE PLEASE DO THEM DAVID)
i love expansion packs
I have several freaking amazing ideas for expansions, if I do say so myself
yeah they should be called expansion packs
or mission packs?
probably expansion packs
re: bosses... I want to keep them fairly simple tbh. Expect them to be more like what you'd see in classic FPS than what you'd see now.
so the would be more like Mini bosses by today standards?
i guess as long as the lvl themselves are compelling, it can get away with simpler bosses
i mean
go watch the trailer
did the boss look interesting to you?
(referring to the fire breathing horse thing)
THUNDERHORSE
i think i missed that trailer, mind dropping the link?

thx
ive seen this, i guess i oversaw the horse
oh well ill stay optimistic, most of you have access to test builds of the game anyways right?
a lot of people have the pre-alpha and those keys will turn into ep1 soon (and eventually the full game)
right so i can just ask them for non spoiler insights on the boss fights
yup
:)
Dusk: dissolution of the scourge of the ground zero
so lemme get sumthing strait, game releases when Ep1 is done and the later episodes are added for free as theyre done? then if the game sells well you will release mission packs?
not quiiite. We haven't completely decided what to do with ep1 but we're pretty sure it will go up on Steam so everyone who has a pre-alpha key atm will get an update, and will be able to play ep1 (for testing and to give people something new to play :D). Plan atm is official release will be all 3 at once. And if the game sells well I do plan on doing expansions.
i hope the game sells damn well then!
me too :)
alright, sounds good to me, if i get lucky nabbing a key from the discord ill make sure to leave insight to help make the game better
๐
a friend of mine wants the game - I'll buy it for him when it releases... can't have myself playing the full game for free 
yup once you've had a chance to play the game feel free to drop your feedback on the steam forums or in #240196737397030922 @leaden urchin
Episode 1 of Dusk campaogn has 3 boss encounters
well 4
some are mini
they have health bars and stuff
they are not normal enemies
the Duke Brothers remain however
theyre in like... level 6?
IDK YOULL SEE
LOL
every 3+ levels or so
so just tough enemies
dave
make mouse boss
I do hope the Duke Brothers are tougher than they are in the pre-alpha :P
give us a hint to the release date of the new build damnit!
Duke brothers in pre alpha were a bit too easy
pre alpha in general was easy
@thorn trout Always smart.
so people of all skill levels could get through it
now there are difficulty settings
Good call
can't wait to hear the new cultists' lines
crudux cruo!
1hr40m
oh no please don't say "ground zero" :c
kept you waiting, huh
youre pretty good
I FEEL ASLEEP
sounds fun
Anyone need a quake champions beta key?
If you've got one you want to give away, PM it to one of the admins
ok
i wouldnt mind the key personally
Nice
do it david
I never cared about them tbh
seemed like bullshit times to hit
I MAKE MY OWN GHOSTIES
I VOTED YES
BECAUSE IT TELLS YOU IF YOURE DOING SOMETHING WRONG, ALSO I JUST FIND THEM REALLY ENDEARING
@gleaming berry that's how I've always felt too but I dunno
they're kinda cool because they're a challenge
WE DONT KNOW WHAT
i love you know what!
half life 3
hee hee I do know what and nobody else does. I like this feeling
come on david you can tell us we won't tattle
that's how I feel every day
im kidding though
nope, no can tell :)
yeah. Dusk it up in the meantime
๐
"dusk it up" he says, b-but no new build ;____;
Hey @thorn trout I was wondering the other day, is Dusk going to have steam workshop support or just regular old drag n' drop modding
we're hoping for workshop
i think there's a few Unity titles that take advantage of the workshop
modding will be something that's focused on post-release (I mean, unless Zombie somehow has Dawn figured out before then, in which case go nuts). But it's definitely something we want to do. Steamworks and otherwise.
but ultimately i think the workshop kinda sucks, uploading and maintaing a mod on it is always a total pain in the ass
drag 'n' drop for life
there are a lot of games it barely works on
yeah the workshop is a clusterfuck
i know for paradox titles every time a game like EUIV or HOI is updated it's an absolute nightmare to update your mod for the latest build
what should be the simplist thing in the world is an unmitigated shitfest
seeing as you're literally changing version numbers in a text file
well if we have workshop support I assume we'll have drag and drop support in some form. I dunno though. Like I said that'll come after release.
unless nobody buys Dusk
in which case gg
this is just us moaning about the workshop in general, haha.
i'm sure a happy medium can be found with DUSK
[post launch, of course]
^^^
Don't worry David, I'm sure plenty of people will shill the fuck out of dusk
dusk.exe -file awesome.mod
yeah Dusk already has lots of fans, and it's not even out yet ๐
zombie is designing Dawn to be VERY robust
it's not even in beta yet
idk if youve seen the videos of the console he added to the game etc
but its impressive stuff
its a modder's dream
and his ultimate plan with it is to turn it into a framework for Unity devs to integrate, so modding is more widespread
also dusk it up you say?
ok whos gonna 1v1 me duskworld?
hmm, I should make an official dusmkatch level for testing
ghetto aerowalk works but... :)
de_dusk
Dusk2
i have an idea for a weird testing map
it'll be ripped straight from reflex
but i think it should be big enough
dude ghetto aerowalk is trash
it just doesnt fit dusk
and thats fine
you definitely need to design a real duskmatch map
i'm curious to see what you're dm design choices are like
me too lol
all we have is aerowalk
and its too claustrophobic for a game as fucking insanely fast as dusk
yeah it'll be easier to tweak everything once there's a map that fits the speed etc
@mild ginkgo boot up reflex and take a look at the map grave
i think its grave
thats the map i have in mind
hm, yeah ill look at it and maybe port it to see
that reminds me that i should play reflex more, im starting to get the hang of the movement
nice
i just remember when bobby prince was on board for doom
and u gotta realise that
too much of one thing makes the one thing not good
nah. i've never had a problem with metal in any videogame.
but yes teef, there are much calmer ambient pieces
you can check andrews twitter for samples
@hexed roost !!!!
ayyyyyyy
idk why i did that here
i just kinda reacted
wot
delayed, but the par times are kinda bullshit imo. I mostly take note of secrets\enemies killed when I complete a level.
but then again, I'm not a huge fan of speedrunning, so take it with a grain of salt
yeah but think about it
because there are badges for completing different things in the level like completionist for getting all the secrets
there could be a badge for "speedrunner" for beating the par time
yep, in that case, absolutely
and subsequently an achievement for getting a certain amount of speedrunner badges or something like that
in original DOOM though, those par times are just an arbitrary goal
but I can see how it can contribute in DUSK's case, yeah
same thing, just with a reward badge
which isn't that different, but still better
but muh achievements
yep :P
what's funny is
Steam achievements basically accomplish nothing but the achievement itself, there's no use for achievements there
and yet, that's what makes them addicting
just for the sake of having a secondary goal in a game
I NEEDS THEM
I really want the new endless arena O_O
well, basically "old endless arena" now
like you need your chievos, I NEED MA JUMP PADS
the new old endless arena
coining this title
or you could just call it "that barn level in endless"
I prefer to call it PAX arena
barn level?
oh right the one they showed at pax is a barn too
I was thinking of the OLD endless arena, pre-New Blood
ay zombie can you hit me with those links for olDusk?
no you just reminded me

dammit formatting plugin
THERE
I have a formatting plugin and it makes # turn text into fullwidth
#test# becomes ๏ฝ๏ฝ ๏ฝ๏ฝ
it doesn't ignore links, unfortunately
and if you want me to show off the old endless arena, I don't have to, I'm pretty sure it's in the reveal trailer very briefly
AAA
the part where the player goes upside down after using the jump pad
gee olDusk is weird
afaik I was the first one to call it that
I can't tell if that's dip or just someone with the same pfp
giving away what?
the dusk builds
medals?
those are like, before New Blood was even involved with the game
they're like, single-level prototypes
tech demos really
k
they do have some interesting content in them though
interesting mainly because it was cut
and therefore gives a bit of insight into the game's development & choices
the totem
that shoots plasma
it actually advanced to one more form before being cut
which you don't see in any of the public prototypes
yeah I remember you sharing a thing where it looked like that one weapon from hexen
yeah
it's the same weapon functionally
just different projectile colours & a new model
shame cause it looks cool
spinning it actually does melee damage
I'm guessing it was replaced by the crossbow?
yeah
weapon slot-wise anyway
interestingly
the crossbow replaces two weapons, code-wise
the chainsaw and the amulet/totem
yeah I thought so because of the magic kind of element it had
the chainsaw is completely removed
but the amulet's code actually remains
along with its weapon pickup (which remains functional)
but it just gives you the crossbow
the crossbow replaced the chainsaw's pickup, and took the amulet's slot
and the amulet took the chainsaw's slot
yeah
that video is actually a newer build that I restored the amulet code on
have you even played episode 1 yet zombie?
rating?
my friend bought gucci flip flops
good
(also tbh I like the blue projectiles more than the greenish-yellow ones it had before being cut)
yeah me too
I think david showed that version with the paddle pop stick model in a video?
A look at the weapons in the FPS I'm currently working on, Dusk. Follow development at http://ironsnowflakes.blogspot.com/
I played a bit of Quake last night, and I don't know if it's just DUSK playing tricks on me, but I remembered the ssg being a lot more meaty there
definitely mistaken it with DUSK's ssg
i dont like quakes shotguns
the ssg always needs to sound like a giant fucking cannon of fuck you
yeah it feels underwhelming after dusk @acoustic oriole
yep. it's kinda funny cause when I jumped into Quake, I felt something familiar, yet different
that's how DUSK nailed the Quake feeling, while also being completely different
it's what quake is when looking through rose tinted glasses
I actually played it for the first time last year
it was a blast
shortly before DOOM 16, as part of the hype\education process
nop
nope
we can mod it back in post release though
zombie already did mod it back in
but only he has it
for reasons
I think the current arsenal is rock solid
ah ok i was gonna say those projectiles are rather hard to notice
I'm probably the only person in this discord that didn't think doom '16 was that great
I know it has significant flaws, but I can't deny how much fun I was having
I finished it in two sittings, and that's kinda hard to accomplish with me
I didn't even finish it
how far did you get?
i replayed a whole fukton
give it another shot someday. with appropriate expectations. y'never know, you might change your mind
I was thinking about redownloading it soon
most of the hours i have put in to it, is by replaying the campaign
but I want to replay wolf tno first
I kinda liked it
what le fuck
man
that ain't nothing compared to others
i wished i put that many hours in
honestly, over half of that was into SnapMap
lol i have 7 hours on that game gg
doom backwards is poom
poow
poop
ษฏoop
doop
womb
wood
dope
cum
lube
climax
brb screencapping amount of hours on doom 2016
who calls doom 4 #bnnuy-and-the-jits like geez
I still can't tell if that's dip or not
I think my longest playtime is for GTA V
longest steam playtime, anyway
classic doom I'd have thousands of hours in
but honestly, it's cause my brother also finished the game on my PC
kek you plebs
lets move this #bnnuy-and-the-jits
going to general
dem rookie numbers
tfw a week of gameplay is rookie numbers
yes
tfw 37 hours of disappointment
shadow warrior 2 was great
gameplay was good until the enemies became super spongey
true
everything else was sloppy at best
i played a little minigame where i had to balance elemental guns
SW2013 with all its flaws is still a much better game
same with sw1
it was literally 2 lightning 2 fire 2 ice
great on normal
Hi, other people who are excited about Dusk! Good morning!
heya
woah look at that avain being nice to a (seemingly) luker/newcomer
It's not lurking if you're new!
haha cheers ๐
I've had this game on my wishlist for a while but I didn't realize there was a discord.

!keyfaq
"I want a key to (insert game here). How can I get one?"
Keys are currently being posted at random intervals (usually about once a day) with whoever being able to redeem the key the fastest getting access. This is the only way to currently get access to the pre alphas and other free stuff. Key beggers will be ignored so dont bother asking.
here's some basic info for you
Oh nice
GL on gettin a key. i was one of dem lucky fuckjers. literally just joined then mins later a key was dropped
It's all good. I'm happy to just play it when it releases.
๐
true words of a dusk fan
^
pin this mans @graceful wing
My main question pre-release about Dusk: uh... you can be upside-down? I ain't never been upside-down in Quake before and it scares me.
yes you can backflip
yup
it's sweet
lol nice
it's only for style points ;)
why would I not use it
but you will
@atomic egret nah on this channel the pins are for stuff directly related to dusk
damn
Maybe a weird question - does Dusk have an inventory screen?
nope
nope
sick
just 1 to 9
no items other than weapons and what you can pick up off the ground and hold in your hands
that's about as inventory management as you're gonna get
Idk if that's a strange place to draw a line or not, but having to manage an inventory seriously saps the fun out of a shooter for me.
I found rage wasn't all that bad with that stuff
nothing can kill a shooter more than having to babysit a menu every 5 minutes
kek borderlands wasnt that bad.
I think RAGE isnt getting enough credit
it wasn't outstanding or anything, but still a solid shooter
I only recently started playing it so I can't say much yet
well, a better example of bad inventory is SHADOW WARRIOR 2 IN ALL CAPS
noooo
run, Gilby
sw1 is one of my fav games ;(
both, bye now.
same, see ya, good night
wowee
dusk should have a f2p version where you have to pay to get a gun or progress through a level 
i wish there was a way to only get notifications for key drops lmao
how much progress has dusk made since the pre pre alpha demo
ik about the silly weapon slider
A lot.
progression system please. How am I supposed to enjoy a game if I pay $60 and you don't lock out all of the content behind leveling?
loadouts in multiplayer
Make all of the guns useless until I earn attachments that make them useful at the expense of them being ugly
Ooh and make the attachments random drops from loot crates
these are all wonderful ideas. Taking notes.
Regen health and make the game a cover based shooter
Turn it into Brutal Doom
doom 2016 but quake but the dlc is singleplayer and multiplayer
actually what am i saying
Turn it into brutal undertale
gonna cry
bad luck brian
Rage comics as wall texture
trollfaces
Y u no
huh?
Talking about the future of dusk
everyone knows that vine memes are the best
that boom sound used in every instagram comedy video ever
But vine is deader than this chat
thicc
its alive when the key drops and everybody gets pissed when the noob takes it
๐
And said lurker DOESNT EVEN MENTION THEY GOT IT
ohmygod
the worst kinda person
seeing dave online feels like my toes are being stepped on by sentient upside down lego bricks
Oh wow he's early
i hope pics of my dog appease him
did a dusk key drop yet?
<@&303728615382581249> how's vr hot tub
d u s k
dawn
Quack
dusk till dawn ayyyyy#
wew good one how long did that one take to think up?
a femtoesecond
fair enough
low hanging fruit ๐ฆ ๐ฆ ๐ฆ
๐
What time is it for you?
8:30pm
Eh, it'll be about midnight for you if he drops a key
s h e i ร e
Unless midnight is hard for you to stay up to, should be ez pz
i go to bed in an hour and 30 minutes
Recently keys have been not being claimed for long amounts of time
perhaps later
why should the channel be dead when we have WIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLD WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODY
please stay safe
and nothing of value was lost
VR standing in a line sim, is best game.
man i want a vr hot tub now
what engine is dusk being made in?
Unity3d
oh really
mhm
yup
its like a mix beetween the quake 1 engine and id tech 2
i love the trees tho
they're classic textures
and not a 3d model
idk why
but it reminds me of isle of the dead more than anything
if anybody knows about that game
isnt it that shit zombie game
Some cool industrial vibes for the dusk soundtrack

Pushing a swarmatron emulator through the moog filter for maximum 90's industrial tension on a track for @DUSKdev https://t.co/z19pWXpMHR
@crimson folio nope, Quake is idtech 1, Quake 2 is idtech 2
but Doom is also idtech 1, despite being a different engine
Sorry, you're wrong.
But I'm not gonna argue. You can believe w/e you want.
lol
^
To each their own.
Mm
oh god is the thing happening again
where we argue about whether quake and doom go here
no
nope
@thorn trout i meant to ask, did rivet/explosion jumping receive a change? i was driving myself mad last night because i cant make a jump i used to be able to make 9/10 times
it was probably just human error
but i have to know
oh wow good catch. It was very slightly nurfed to match single player
I figure multiplayer rivet jump can be balanced separate though
so it's not final per se
yeah i mean, you could do server config stuff, physics etc
i just thought i was going crazy
that's true
its fine as it was, there was just a very specific jump that felt off, and i was like, huh either im bad, or this was changed
by like, not much
thats what was so strange about it
it was like 90% of what it was
gotcha :)
good
to celebrate, ponderosa
Mean.
GIMME BUILD DAV
oops
You guys are gonna turn this into a DNF release time frame if you keep asking ;-)
hey @here in the pre alpha build could you explosive jump with gas cans just by throwing them down? Like, would they collide with your player's feet or did they have to hit the ground?
yep!
I'm trying to decide if that's something that's shown up recently
if you jumped on them in mid air they would explode
DLC
lol
sure
http://i.imgur.com/JXttFqF.png @lavish galleon looks like a yes or no question to me
light theme
oh come on now don't you start giving me shit for it
i have been summoned
yes
I'll probably just leave it in since I don't think it harms anything and fixing it probably will
has dusk been fuckin updated yet
no :(
PAYSHUNS
let me play yer fuckin game u nerd
not all of us are cave dwelling demons
DID SOMEONE SAY DUSK?
They exploded sometimes when you jump on them
I use one to go from the AR secret to red key
the gas can jumping is kind of strange sometimes
very fake news
nvm im dumb
wow ok agree with me being stupid
so thank you for reminding me of rule 1
what am i looking at?
i.. can't tell
i mean clearly its a person, i just mean...why?
I can't tell if it's a dude or not
it's female
yeah hands are too frail to be a dude
but also why, whats this got to do with dusk
i feel like we're being memed on
๐
the picture was taken at DUSK 
he got me
Golden gun?
thats just lighting
also you are a cult leader dave
do you fucking read the conversations here?
heh, I'd be able to make a cool golden gun for dusk once we can mod the game
Ye
hotdamn, those screens
Will Dusk have an unfiltered texture options? Like Quake's gl_nearest?
That's not a bad idea
I mean it already has unfiltered textures
so we all know about the pixel slider
but i want that pixel slider
to be so damn hardcore
dusk becomes one giant pixel
I did too but Dave wants it to cap at 8x pixelization :)
zombie will mod it
probably
zombie will always mod it
I'll mod this game until it's borderlands 3
if its borderlands 3, thatd mean its gearbox
pls dont let gearbox get their grubby mitts on this game
duskdude is actually Duke
I was promised no inventory screens!
What if duskdude was steel played by shaq? :D
Why not Spawn?
Why not Meteor Man?
Does anyone know how to play the demo?
Its not a demo, its an early Alpha build.
If you want it, you have to wait for a key to drop
Lucky for you, Dave hasn't dropped one yet
Its first come, first serve though, if someone else gets the key you're shit out of luck
And Dave vary rarely give out more than one key at a time
oh damn guess ill have to wait till it comes out to buy it haha
No, Dave drops keys daily
well
sometimes
some weeks he only drops only every other day
It depends
If you stick around, you might be able to catch one
Do i input it on steam?
That is, if Dave actually drops a key today instead of Shilling his twitter again for 1000th time
Yes you do
You put the key in like any other redeemable key
Not that hard
Though you'll need to be quick on the draw, 'cause like I said, First come, first serve, and there are a lot of lurkers on here who want that dusk goodness
Oh i see thank you sooooo much for clearing things up for me
your best chance of getting a key will also be on the second saturday of any given month
Yep, giveaway days are the best time to try and snag a key
(thats movie night)
Oh
That too
On movie night, the admins drop Dusk keys, a LOT of them, in the Cytube chat
You can get a dusk key AND watch a great (well, usually great) movie
@crimson folio Hope this clears everything up! ๐
yup it does thank you damn you are like a tour guide haha
I'm like NewBlood's unofficial greeter
I help the new guys
In fact, that should be a role
It's a good role for you :)
too bad the bot already does that automatically these days. no human greeter required
I just joined like 2 days ago. Go ahead and greet me if it will make you feel better.
He didn't even do it worst greeter ever. This is why you get replaced by a robot! ๐
Wait what?
Oh
"Welcome to the Newblood community discord, @crimson folio!"
Sorry for the delay, I was doing other things
Didn't see your post til just now
No worries just having some fun ๐

Don't forget to bring a towel!
"And don't break any rules or you're a dead motherfucker! ๐ "
I'm kidding
maybe
Jabronii-Chan has been known to be kick happy so I don't know

Foreshadowing? Not unlike the foreshadowing that may or may not be going on in the first episode of DUSK!
shhh we arent supposed to talk about Dusk 2 yet
H-Dusk 2? when
^
@prisma halo when?
Dusk is taking so long because both HDusk and HDusk 2 are being developed internally
Sorry... HDusk?
Wow you don't understand the meme
I do not
Look up h-doom
๐
Get the joke now?
I honestly feel better about myself that I didn't at first
Oh boohoo
lol so far I've met "welcoming guy" and "extremely not-welcoming guy" ๐
Yep
that's jab for you
Takes all kinds ๐
There are way worse people than me on this server, be lucky you haven't had to deal with them
Anyway
If DUSK doesn't have a gun that shoots other guns, it's losing a star from me.
Kek
knife shooting gun
you mean basically a nailgun
Are keys dropped here or in general out of curiosity?
they're dropped pretty much anywhere dave decides to drop them

dusk takes place in outback country with a cult
Outlast 2 takes place in outback country with a cult
Outlast 2 is actually Dusk ๐ค
RE7 was also country inspired
true
๐ค ๐ค
why was RE7 so short
cause its a reseident evil game
i rather have a short quality game like re7 than a long snore fest
resident evils are traditionally very short
re4 was a good length
RE6 was like dead space 3 if dead space 3 wasnt good
yeah i dont get the hate for DS3
i hope RE7 can drive decently on my pc
Dude DS3 weapon crafting was top tier
ye
good
lolno
Re4 has country in it and its ๐
david just mad he cant make a walking sim that good
should we move to general?
Dusk still needs lurker enemies that steal keys on new bloods difficulty
Would be best inside joke
oh my god
Well Appalachia runs up the entire East Coast basically
But David is from Pennsylvania, so I imagine it's that region
basically yeah
ohio is corn and forest, with occasional amish
So I spent a lot of time in those mountains and woods as a kid
The amish were everywhere back in new york
It just has this feel of slow decay
Yeah Ohio is super flat and open compared with PA
Like I used to play in the ruins of a burned down skii lodge
I went to college in Ohio for two years. I thought it was beautiful. COnstant trees and hills get old after awhile :P
21 years of seeing the same shit and it gets boring
@mild ginkgo yeah esp in old oil areas or places like that you can come across some interesting stuff in the woods
on the bright side i grew up in the rust belt so there was a bunch of cool abandoned factories to explore
I also live in a fairly boring part of PA, where it's just sort of half way between Ohio mountains
Heh one of my favorite places nearby is an abandoned cement factory. Some textures from Dusk come from there.
Yeah the region I'm talking about was basically gutted post ww2. It's where GE did all their manufacturing. They employed 90% of the adult population in that city, so when they shut down all the plants, the earth started to reclaim it
Everyone lost their jobs and had to leave
Yeah dude it's really strange
yeah near my house is a random steel mill, not even that gutted, it just looks like people up and left it and nature took its course
when i went to cancun there was all this run down shit before the resorts
all rusty and abandoned
Sadly it's a lot harder to explore those places when their in a populated area like a city
im suprised nobody really makes shit about all the desolate stuff in places like it
also
the uk
I live in that place where clive barker`s undying is set, its pretty boring as you can imagine.
ive been watching the proper people adn dan bell a lot recently
i find that stuff super interesting
@slate edge are there spooky abandoned catacombs?
Sadly no, I found an old bunker from ww2 though, despite Ireland being neutral
eh they prolly took some precautions
yes
david is talking so its fine
#bnnuy-and-the-jits758971 more like it
In Hamburg there were plenty of ww2 bunkers still standing
aww shoot, I forgot this is Dusk chat
im a way
its your chat
off to general everyone!
own it
lets try and link everything back to dusk
naw others can't be expected to follow the rules if the higher-ups don't
true true
I think Dusk looks fun and I am excited to play it and shoot guns and use jump pads and do flips.
same
fam i'd pay money to get early access
EA's always a risk. People dropping reviews, shitting on it because it's not done, creating havoc for a project that's already in the middle of production.
Not unlike the havoc you'll experience when you're blasing cultists and finding secrets in DUSK!
yup EA is good for some games but it absolutely will not work for dusk
For a single player playthrough I would way rather play it when it's complete. Dealing with beta-ish issues is fine for like online multiplayer because matches are brief and don't matter. I want my SP experience to be really excellent.
@thorn trout don't go EA even if dave threatens you to do so at gunpoint ๐
if ubisoft keeps their dlc practice like rainbow six they'll start getting into the good books
also something something good severs
I mean we're already sort of doing EA but it just isn't EA and we don't get paid :P
early access tends to kill story based or campaign based games i think
since a bunch of people have keys
the free keys are more of a marketing trick since you can't buy access
you get sick of a game when you play it enough. sometimes happens with EA that you get sick of the game while its in EA, and then you never get that full experience
@toxic wadi yeah precisely. That's happened to me with every EA game I've played
by the time it actually releases I've moved on
yep
oh shit we're talking about early access
i thought we were talking publishers
im the biggest fucking idiot on earth

Early access is a sound concept, its just its reputation from greedy low tier devs that ruined it all
yeah
it can work
but most people use it as a cash cow
i swear 3/4 of the money used from early access games is just lamboghini money
Though it wouldnt really work for a singleplayer game with a strong attention to narrative at least because yeah....
they could just do episode at a time
or how about
pay premium price for episode at a time
๐ ๐
we life is strange in this bitch
Yeah, but a game like half life on early access wouldnt work because you`d get pissed off with it stopping and starting, it works more for a game where you can seemlessly add content to.
yeah
Bring shareware back
I wish. These days? Almost as bad of a deathstroke. Thanks, market saturation!
Yeah actual shareware isn't going to fly nowadays. Most people probably won't play past ep1 of Dusk anyway
which is sad
But not as harsh of a deathstroke as you'll be dealing to the hordes of enemies found in DUSK with your twin scythes!
because ep2 and ep3 are gonna rock
@crimson folio that's just the nature ofthe market now. You have way more games for way less money and a gaming audience with limited time
i'd play the heck out of it
you can play it dude...
when its out ๐
either you have a huge backlog or you haven't finished most of the games you play. Or your entire life is literally just playing games
๐๐ซ ๐ซ
I`d play all episodes :D
yeah, i only finish games i really like
same
My backlog is pretty slim. I just like very particular games in very narrow categories. I can see what you're saying though, most gamers these days are more "ominvores" than I am.
Dat Bundle Weight
do you tend to only buy what you know you're going to play or are you just really good at keeping up with your backlog?
^^^^
Bundles have done a lot of harm to the indie market imo
Yup.
i feel like it subconciously creates the idea that the games in the bundle are bargain bin or not worth playing somehow
a lot of indies have to sell for less than the price of a coffee
@thorn trout I just buy stuff I'm going to play.
And by the bulk, if I had to guess.
@crimson folio that's admirable. A lot of us were taken in by bundle fever at least for a time
its a shame with indies because you have to look further into wether or not the indie is good
I've been trying to get back to just buying what I play. But... damn.
dusk from the get-go box art preview should scream ''PLAY ME''
@red abyss well, example, I can only make money by participating in weeklong sales atm
these indie games always have minimal shitty PS jobs
