dusk-duskworld-dungeonsofdusk

[glacial charm]

and someone tell dave on stream that the name of cuddles has officailly been adopted

[uneven belfry]

give it this obscure long ass name but say "but people usually just call em cuddles"

[crisp lion]

the snow is melancholic

[uneven belfry]

The Tortured Damned Rabid Mutt, but we usually just call em Cuddles

ambient music ikr

[glacial charm]

lol

another new enemy type: the flying cultist or phantom

[uneven belfry]

sans undertale

[glacial charm]

or has phantom been taken by another game

[echo epoch]

Sick burn

[urban sparrow]

flying Tpose guy

[glacial charm]

for an enemy type

lol

[crisp lion]

canon

[uneven belfry]

call them assencions

[crisp lion]

confirmed by dev

[echo epoch]

Sick burn immediately after touching lava

[urban sparrow]

NO hahaha

[echo epoch]

Roguelites amirite

[uneven belfry]

ascension

[glacial charm]

ascension... hmm

not sure

[uneven belfry]

just because of the tpose seen as "ascension"

[vague egret]

dave is in wendy's twitter mode. nobody is safe

[urban sparrow]

haha

[uneven belfry]

he's virtually harming everyone

[glacial charm]

wat

[uneven belfry]

wait, episode 2 came out 2 months ago??

[glacial charm]

no

[crimson folio]

dusk is canceld

[dark sandal]

Watching them on Twitch at EVGA now! Clipped this! LOL https://clips.twitch.tv/NaiveAffluentCarabeefPicoMause

[urban sparrow]

like 4 months ago

[glacial charm]

it came out in december

[urban sparrow]

or 3

[glacial charm]

or was it november

[mild ginkgo]

No it came out January 11th

[urban sparrow]

I dunno, I am stuck in dev cycle and Time is just a word to me now

[glacial charm]

i was refering to the preview build

[crimson folio]

eh wasn t it a xmas gift

[glacial charm]

when it was first available to play

[prisma ivy]

Crunch time bois

[crimson folio]

and 11th was ea time

[uneven belfry]

time is just a concept

[urban sparrow]

Time doot doot is all we got

[uneven belfry]

something i really like about dusk is its very inspiring for my own games, but thats also not good because im looking for faults in other games

[glacial charm]

yeah, dusk makes me wanna make games as well

[uneven belfry]

i think any game does, but dusk mechanically gives me a lot of unique ideas

[glacial charm]

and refinement

[uneven belfry]

yeet

[glacial charm]

bunnyhopping feels more satisfying

[uneven belfry]

i will say

strafe and dusks bunny hopping is sooo good

it feels so good to do it

[glacial charm]

yeh

[uneven belfry]

im kinda bummed out about getting a new comp

mostly because i really appreciated my lackluster comp for bein able to optimize games

but with an i7 thats just going to be hard to tell if a game has any bugs or lag or nah

im wondering if anybody on the dusk team has a crappy computer on the side during dev

[glacial charm]

i wanna get rid of my current PC

it might have a few new parts but i'd rather have a fresh new PC

my current one is so obsolete

[uneven belfry]

huh

[glacial charm]

i have a 7 year old PC that's needs retirement

[uneven belfry]

ye

i was trying to relate my comp to game dev

[glacial charm]

oh

[uneven belfry]

also on the same topic, i hate that people make games with as much content as fuckin possible not caring about optimization at all

[glacial charm]

why cant people do both, add content and optimize the game

[uneven belfry]

because peoples first thought is "we can just slam shit in people have good computers they wont notice any bugs"

[glacial charm]

well surprise surprise, it's noticable

[uneven belfry]

exactly

man props to dusk devs, they actually give a shit

[crimson folio]

lol "i made it and i suck at it" legend

[glacial charm]

indeed

[urban sparrow]

👌 👹

[prisma ivy]

He's not wrong :P

[glacial charm]

to @uneven belfry

in response to him ^

[crimson folio]

LOOOOL

CYBERHITLER

LMAO

[glacial charm]

yup

[dull remnant]

Andrew the king is here? Fantastic work, dude! I bought Dusk because of you 😛

[crimson folio]

i read his review

[urban sparrow]

Ayyy nice!

[uneven belfry]

to anybody who thinks music or games arent art

[winged otter]

yeah,great job with the music

[uneven belfry]

if music can make you buy a game youre doing something right

[jaunty meteor]

I'm really happy that EP3 has more dynamic elements to it like rising/lowering water

[urban sparrow]

💪

[uneven belfry]

dynamic anything is rad

i fucking love interactables

[glacial charm]

yup

[crimson folio]

also in Amid Evil

i really enjoy the AE soundtrack aswell

[uneven belfry]

havent heard it yet

[urban sparrow]

AE's soundtrack is really cool and abstract. I dig working on it

[dull remnant]

It is good 👌

[uneven belfry]

god damn it dave i was just about to say

[winged otter]

flooding level was great

[crimson folio]

AE is cool and abstract aswell 😃

[winged otter]

snowy enviroments too

[uneven belfry]

when dusk guy crouches hes actually in a track suit lowkey drinking vodka and cyka blyating

[dull remnant]

Also, Rad Rogers soundtrack was great, Andrew.

[balmy cipher]

I haven't gotten in yet, just played at PAX and shit was so hype

[uneven belfry]

@winged otter that actually brings up a good point i wanna make

dusk devs didnt just add swimming but you never use it again

everything theyve added almost equally gets used virtually throughout the game

[dull remnant]

@balmy cipher , AE or Dusk?

[echo epoch]

You swim in several levels though

[crimson folio]

both dude

buy both 😄

[uneven belfry]

prism that was what i was saying

lol

[winged otter]

also dusk dude cant drown right?

[echo epoch]

Oh lol

[crisp lion]

lol

[echo epoch]

I'm tired

[crisp lion]

"Volcanic Lightning"

lol

[echo epoch]

No drown

[uneven belfry]

i was saying you dont just swim once, or use that time slow down thing once and never ever again, the power ups actually get used A Lot

[crimson folio]

yo that cyberhitler 666 refrence was cool stuff

[uneven belfry]

or often

cyber jitler

[crisp lion]

Volcanic Lightning is now the canon nick

[crimson folio]

i shit myself for laughing

[crisp lion]

lol

[crimson folio]

the dude made a dusk review which got taken don i guess

[balmy cipher]

Both

[crimson folio]

a bad review

[balmy cipher]

@dull remnant

[vale oar]

Fuck that was awesome

[dull remnant]

They are both excellent games

[crimson folio]

and he had like 10 diffrent steam names one of em was CYBERHITLER666

[balmy cipher]

I dug the syle of AE

Dusk is flashy af too

[crimson folio]

Ok does anybody play the multiplayer anymore?

[balmy cipher]

I'mma full NUTT when I get in

[vale oar]

hope there will be MORE new enemies

[balmy cipher]

I will later if y'all are down

[dull remnant]

Eskimo, I played for a couple hours yesterday

[rare musk]

Sometimes, there's some people playing occasionally

[echo epoch]

You missed frag night

[winged otter]

in screenshots there was a flying skulls?

[rare musk]

we have a bunch of people playing once a week though

[crimson folio]

But damnn DUSK is really addictive

[rare musk]

[echo epoch]

Organizing games is the best way to get people to play

[crisp lion]

[crimson folio]

[urban sparrow]

You have seen NOTHING yet 😃

[crimson folio]

[vale oar]

Underwater city

[steady aurora]

[vale oar]

IT IS THE DAUGHTER OF INTOXIGATOR. EVERYONE GO HOME.

[dull remnant]

Theyre all sprites lol

[echo epoch]

They're not sprites

[dull remnant]

aren't they?

[prisma ivy]

No

[echo epoch]

I hope they stay t posed

[crimson folio]

[echo epoch]

Dusk is all models

[prisma ivy]

They aren't 2d

[vale oar]

well there was a son

now it's time for daughter

[dull remnant]

[echo epoch]

Lol

[vale oar]

[crimson folio]

So what engine does it run on?

[glacial charm]

dusk is unity

[echo epoch]

Unity

[vale oar]

Unity

[crimson folio]

unity

[glacial charm]

amid evil is unreal

[crimson folio]

REALLY?

[vale oar]

unreal FOUR!

[glacial charm]

^

[crimson folio]

Thats pretty good nostalgia for unity

[prisma ivy]

Unity is pretty cool 👌

[vale oar]

Unity unites.

The best motto ever

[winged otter]

new weapon in ep3?

[echo epoch]

https://media.giphy.com/media/c8XYthhqOzGAo/giphy.gif

[jaunty meteor]

The sword is basically a new weapon

[crimson folio]

So what's the lore behind the cult?

[dull remnant]

Sword in MP should be pretty fun

[vale oar]

Cult is Dave's work

[rare musk]

Play E3

and find out

[crimson folio]

the sword is there since ep1

[jaunty meteor]

The sword has been radically redesigned, hart

[vale oar]

Now it is different tho

[dull remnant]

HarT, but it's been buffed

[jaunty meteor]

did you watch the stream?

[rare musk]

Sword in MP should be fun

[crimson folio]

hey if you actually add vodka to the game should be 30 morale and insta drunk

[rare musk]

if it's ever gotten working with the netcode

[crimson folio]

yeah i was partially occupied so i missed that part it seems

[vale oar]

BLYATMAN drinks VODKA

[winged otter]

i read somewhere about new weapon

[gusty geode]

Dave gave me a free hat a PAX.

[crisp lion]

So DUSK is also confirmed to be getting some expansion for EP1 and Ep2

[gusty geode]

Feels good.

[crisp lion]

in story

[crimson folio]

well the sword got tweaked

[crisp lion]

[echo epoch]

Well I'm not sure

[vague egret]

[vague egret]

[echo epoch]

Rule 17

[prisma ivy]

Games cool and all, when are you guys adding graphics tho?

[dull remnant]

graffiks are already 11/10 wotumean

[vale oar]

You know what? Those flying dudes look like the ones from Arcane Dimensions

[vague egret]

bitch we cant afford grafix
go to bethesda for that trash

[urban sparrow]

4k UHD textures

[crimson folio]

well ppl been theorizing if DuskDude smokes weed bcs of the cigar AEGuy on crystals

[prisma ivy]

Skyrim is the pinnacle of graphix

[echo epoch]

Flying dudes look kind of like controllers

From HL

[vale oar]

okay so now Dusk Is not cancelled now it is "Dusk is Skyrim"

THE TRUTH IS REVEALED

[vague egret]

todd approved

[dull remnant]

Did you not see the light bloom?

[crimson folio]

better dungeons update/DLC

[dull remnant]

Obviously Skyrim

[idle wagon]

dusk gets scrapped and made into a skyrim TC

[winged otter]

flying enemies looks like Hexen flying skellies

[echo epoch]

Oblivion physics

[vale oar]

yeah

[crimson folio]

T-Pose flying shit is my fav

[vale oar]

I only wish that flying dudes would do some tricky stuff instead of just fireball shit

[crimson folio]

want duks in dusk Mod it in !

[dull remnant]

It'll be fun to deflect that fireball back at them in the air though

[crimson folio]

ok dinner time

[crystal vessel]

Just like Minecraft

[dull remnant]

I think that was the goal

[vale oar]

mmmaybe

I 'm also wondering what happens if you use jump pad underwater

[dull remnant]

I dunno, but that looked like an awesome multiplayer map.

[vale oar]

Yeeeah

[gleaming berry]

Yeah my voice is shot from talking

[crimson folio]

drugs help

[vale oar]

😄

[gleaming berry]

I wish

[crimson folio]

yo dave

[vale oar]

Get well soon Dave

[crimson folio]

awesome cyberhitler refrence

[jaunty meteor]

You know, the flooding mechanic reminded me of an old map concept that the Black Mesa team had https://forums.blackmesasource.com/index.php/Thread/27762-An-Undertow-Is-Born-The-Story-of-Undertow/

[crimson folio]

can t praise that dood enouff

[jaunty meteor]

A crossfire-esque gimmick where a large chamber of the map was suspended above a pool of toxic waste, and if you pressed a button at the top, the toxic waste would rise to the top

[crimson folio]

both of u guys did a great job, stream was fun to watch

[vale oar]

^^

[crimson folio]

u won some hearts

[vale oar]

Still beating hearts

SACRIFICE

So iirc we got:
E3M1: The Iron Catherdral
E3M2: Fire and Ice
E3M3: City of Shadows

[dull remnant]

ya

They said 6 were near done though i believe, right?

[vale oar]

iirc yes

[steady aurora]

6 levels? Or level 6?

[crimson folio]

So ep 3 is out just not completed?

[vale oar]

Yeah still WIP

And then we get QA

then the full release

[steady aurora]

Oho I love the idea of the enemy, of the enemy

the enemies enemy

an out of world force

dripping spawn from the stars

[vale oar]

E4M1: The Bright Pass
E4M2: The Illuminate {something}
E4M3: ???

Does anyone remember the exact map names from Solar Solstice?

[jaunty meteor]

I can't wait for the obligatory crystal of madness level

Or at the very least have a secret where there are like 5 of them stashed before a huge fight, I love the gimmick way too much

[crimson folio]

Ok I finished ep2 but I still cant play ep3?

[vale oar]

Expecting a secret level with a bunch Lil' Johns

@crimson folio You can't YET

But you'll able to SOON

[crimson folio]

Oohhh

Welp time to play duskworld

[vale oar]

..or endless

[crisp lion]

nvm

[vale oar]

😄

[crisp lion]

E4

[vale oar]

Yeah

I can't remember the separate words for them tho

[crimson folio]

Still craving for Ep3. Enjoyed the first two.

[prisma ivy]

It's gonna be good

[crimson folio]

When you can run serious sam fusion but not dusk

[shut mesa]

how many frames is "run" for you

[crimson folio]

30

Im still wondering if DUSK takes place in just one part of the country or the entire world has been taken over.

[shut mesa]

probably one part

[crimson folio]

Yeah one

I’m using map logic

Cause after you beat the first story

I’m pretty sure the factory is there

It looks to be more mid eastern part of ohio and virginia,

Does the game use landmarks as some of the levels?

[vale oar]

Yeah sure E2M2 is my home town actually

+:D

[crimson folio]

Oh cool

[jaunty meteor]

@crimson folio Dusk EP1/2 take place in Pennsylvania

[crimson folio]

@vale oar show thy pictur

[vale oar]

Eh okay

gimme a sec

[crimson folio]

I knew it! You can tell by the extruding rocks and patchy forest areas, Also the cultists

[vale oar]

@crimson folio

E2M2 is JUST beneath that house

[crimson folio]

ez

What if they just don't release episode 3, like with half life... OH NO

[vale oar]

They shouldn't tell Gabe about ep3

Otherwise yes

It won't be released

[crimson folio]

PORT HALF LIFE 1 TO DUSK

[jaunty meteor]

Zombie said that they might be looking into allowing you to import GoldSrc-format maps into Dusk

[vale oar]

Actually I guess this what will happen after we get modding stuff

[jaunty meteor]

The EP3 stream immediately reminded me of the HLDM map with the rising/lowering water

[vale oar]

Also

Duke 3D's E3M3

WAIT

E3M3 Of Duke is the Flooded City

E3M3 of Dusk is too

@thorn trout

What the fuck?

[mild ginkgo]

Shhhh

[vale oar]

[crimson folio]

I'll call 3D realms if you don't gimme rat

[vale oar]

Call 3D realms

[crimson folio]

"You copied dusk"

[graceful wing]

3drealms is rip tho

[vale oar]

Dusk Nukem 3D

[crimson folio]

Uhhh gearbox then

[graceful wing]

the current company operating under that name is just that, a name

yup gearbox would do hehe

[vale oar]

call Gearbox, say "Where is my Duke Forever 2001 build"

[jaunty meteor]

Hey, random question to anyone on dev team who might know; do all the maps have to be noded for AI, or can the AI navigate without noding?

[crimson folio]

Would COOP dusk be a possibility in the future?

AFAIK its planned

[vale oar]

Yeah they've said this today

[jaunty meteor]

More than planned, Dave said on stream that it's going to be the active priority after launch IIRC

[crimson folio]

and mods

[vale oar]

And mods yeah

But before that

WE"LL GET THE BEAUTIFUL EPISODE 3😋

[crimson folio]

and MP v1.0

[vale oar]

Yeah but I'm presonally don't care about MP, sorry devs

[shut mesa]

i'm sure they're heartbroken

[crimson folio]

they did say mp is more of a bonus

[vale oar]

I am sure they don't give a fuck :DD

[crimson folio]

oh and to the Devs can you like not anounce the rlease date 1 week before ?

[jaunty meteor]

They'll do whatever they want on that front, they're not announcing anything before it's done

[graceful wing]

we'll announce it when we're ready to announce it

[vague egret]

Yall know we don't deal in firm release dates

[vale oar]

And no deadlines as well

Cause you'll miss them

[vague egret]

Can't miss a release date if you never set one

http://i0.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/022/138/reece.JPG

[vague egret]

Don't read steam forums with any degree of seriousness. We don't unless it's legit problem

[vale oar]

True dat

[vague egret]

Just be glad you don't have to view every post. We do

And then decipher WTF they are saying because they skipped English class too many times

[dim valve]

do you have a prize waiting in store for the 1,000,000th steam forum poster who discovers the E1M9 oob area?

[graceful wing]

yup, you guys miss out on a lot of the more terrible posts as we delete those pretty quickly

[vale oar]

Admins to the Rescue:D

[crimson folio]

i m still a fan of CYBERHITLER666 that guy was a legend

[graceful wing]

[vale oar]

He was not...worthy.

[crimson folio]

[graceful wing]

[crimson folio]

[graceful wing]

[vale oar]

So

[tawny briar]

idk

[agile hill]

Is there Dusk merch?

[tawny briar]

only at stuff like pax

but there will be the collector edition

[agile hill]

Sometimes i hate that i dont live in the us ._.

[vale oar]

[rare musk]

I think they've said they're gonna sell the shirts and whatnot outside of pax at some point

[thin sphinx]

they sold them at quake con last year

so if you live near cons where NB is going

best bet for now

also what have people learned from the stream i had to take care of chores

something about expanded/revisting the first two eps

[graceful wing]

hey dudes

we'll be opening a merch store sometime soon

[thin sphinx]

sword rework

[graceful wing]

we've got our hands full with the games for the time being though

NEWS WHEN WE'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SHARE

[thin sphinx]

huh nice

hope to get a AE shirt to go with my dusk shirt

[graceful wing]

very possible 😉

[vale oar]

Hope to get full-sized Big John sculpture yelling UHAHAHAHA CMHAN KILLME IMHERE

[graceful wing]

but yeah i've got nothing to say on the merch for now

[dull remnant]

Miniature leathernecks would be dope

If not a bit too expensive to produce

[idle wagon]

i saw mini leathernecks and just thought of a leatherneck splitting into three smaller ones on death like Fractal Doom

[graceful wing]

we're testing the waters with our event merch currently

see what sells etc

[vale oar]

Testing the waters => Flooded city in Ep3

So be careful

[graceful wing]

[opal plover]

Just watched the E3 footage

And HOLY SHIT

There is so much stuff I am hyped for

[vale oar]

Yeah HOLY SHIT is not enough actually

[opal plover]

All of the story stuff Dave talked about, the change of tone David hinted at, the water boss fight, and just so much more

[vale oar]

I guess it is some tentacle-Lovecraftian dude

[steady aurora]

I'm curious if they're going to make an underwater enemy, like some smaller eel dudes or crazy fish?

[agile hill]

please no new rats

small hard to hit enemies

which haunt me in my dreams

[stone stirrup]

So like didn't Dave say preordering Dusk = collector's edition? How will anyone prove this? Steam receipts? Lol

[proper spade]

They prey at night they stalk at night

[shut mesa]

de rats

i think you get the OST if u preorder?

[vale oar]

Rats suck

[shut mesa]

[crimson folio]

^

[opal plover]

Ost and comic book

[crimson folio]

xmas n shit

[shut mesa]

[crimson folio]

[vague egret]

We would know who bought or received a key before early access. Valve has tools for that

[proper spade]

I just got the key for dusk at pax. Is duskworld a seperate game?

[shut mesa]

no

[opal plover]

Right click in library

[shut mesa]

you have the option to launch duskworld once you hit play on DUSK

[stone stirrup]

Jah mon

[proper spade]

Okay, thanks

[crimson folio]

there was a deadline around xmas for the preorder = CE edition

[steady aurora]

I hoped right on that bandwagon to preorder the game

[shut mesa]

i wish

you could see when you bought the game

[stone stirrup]

You can I think

[shut mesa]

without having to not play the game for 5 months

now it shows the hours i've played cus i played it recently

[dull remnant]

Wait, theres going to be a comic book?!

[echo epoch]

Yup

There's already an anime

It's called "Courage The Cowardly Dog"

[dull remnant]

Holy shit

Noted

[vale oar]

Cowardly Dog...

CubeDog

[echo epoch]

Brave The Fearful Canine

[crimson folio]

I just replayed dusk only using the scythes

[steady aurora]

sickles mang

[crimson folio]

Have the stream been launched?

[dull remnant]

Stream was at 1pm est @crimson folio

[crimson folio]

A, ok, got it. I live in Moscow that s why asked

[vale oar]

@crimson folio https://clips.twitch.tv/NaiveFancySparrowFailFish

hit Continue watching

and rewind a little bit

[crimson folio]

I saw it

[vale oar]

Ah

[crimson folio]

Dave memes and vitamin drink

As usual

[vale oar]

Drugs

There MUST BE a reference to Blood's "I hate mimes"

but like "I hate memes"

[crimson folio]

I hate DUSK memes but i like dusk developers spirit

[coral turret]

hullo hullo

[crimson folio]

Can t beleive that i ll have to wait for 2 months to play finally 3rd episode

[vale oar]

It is not about 2 months

Maybe more or less

we do not know

[crimson folio]

I know, but it s said that about 2

Besides the same period was between 2nd episode streaming and its launch in Steam

November - January

Or am i wrong ?

[vale oar]

They've said now the situation is completely different, and we should not stick to Ep2 streaming and release dates

So now it may take a bit longer

[crimson folio]

Interesting

Ok hope that release date will be in may

[vale oar]

hope so too

[crimson folio]

Or new blood release 4th amid evil episode in april at least

As an option

[vale oar]

Leon've said it is POSSIBLE

but not sure

[dull remnant]

What they showed looked pretty damn complete, sans enemies in the last bit

[crimson folio]

Leon one love

[dull remnant]

so stoked

[crimson folio]

Sans enemies? Lol

[vale oar]

@dull remnant some untextured bits on "Fire and Ice" also 😄

[dull remnant]

I was talking about AE ep 4

[vale oar]

Ah

sry

[dull remnant]

I missed that untextured bit unfortunately lol. Saw people talking about it in chat right after though

[vale oar]

yeah that was pretty fun

[dull remnant]

I just know they got out of that room asap lol

[vale oar]

lol yeah

WE SAW NOTHING

The game is complete

[dull remnant]

sorry, @crimson folio . Sans meaning without. Just in that last mission they showed

[vale oar]

French : )

[crimson folio]

@dull remnant i learn french and i know meaning of sans. That s why my reaction was as lol))

[loud brook]

@vale oar That doomguy was me!

[vale oar]

OH MAN

hahahahaha

That was fun

I also loved that dude's face in the background

like hmmmm

[thorn trout]

Pax is finito

[crimson folio]

Congratulations)

[vale oar]

Well done David! Thanks for all the new stuff!

[thorn trout]

👍

[crimson folio]

hhmmm how about a secret level kinda like T-Pose Flying Dudes o fun

[shut mesa]

the last boss has a 1% chance of spawning in t-pose

no animations

[vale oar]

I think the secret level will be kinda Memes o' Fun

[crimson folio]

actually that T Pose is creepy shit

[steady aurora]

Hoping the secret level will be crazily hidden, similar to the kind of obscure like basketball in E1.

[crimson folio]

u got to drink some vitamins to get there

[vale oar]

Rofl

[steady aurora]

Got to hide those arcane secrets

[vale oar]

Yeah the basketball stuff would be great - like, lift the random skull to the basketball ring

[steady aurora]

Anyways, I'm sure Ep3 will be beyond legendary, it is David's baby. Keep on keeping on!

[vale oar]

They said yeah there will be REALLY weird stuff

[steady aurora]

Upside-down and inside-out

[vale oar]

Yep

[steady aurora]

I'm down for that kinky shit

[vale oar]

Same

[steady aurora]

One thing I want is a more unique attack from the flying dudes, I'm sure everything is subject to change though.

[vale oar]

Same too - that fireball attack makes me fell those dudes are just flying cultists

I would personally add some splash damage

[steady aurora]

Yeah, exactly

[vale oar]

iirc there is not a single enemy in Dusk that deals splash damage

Oh

The Cowgirl

[steady aurora]

Those things are crazy on Cero Miedo, they are freaking tanks

[vale oar]

Agreed

[steady aurora]

Not that I don't mind, I actually found it tough and challenging compared to when I ran through on I can take it.

[vale oar]

I can take it is MUCH easier

The gap between ICTI and CM is too big for me

[steady aurora]

Yeah definitely some odd ball scaling

[crimson folio]

So is there a rundown of what new stuff is coming for AE and Dusk?

[vale oar]

I would also increase the Fork maiden's walking\attack speed for CM

cause they are too slow

[steady aurora]

AE Ep4 is coming out in a few weeks, and Dusk Ep3 is still being worked on, people estimate for May and June

Those fork maidens hurt like a bitch if you get hit hahah

[vale oar]

Yeah but I mean they are pretty eesy to dodge

[crimson folio]

Cool... I saw some casual statement about the sword being upgraded or something?...

[steady aurora]

Yeah, it is more stealthy, speedy, and can block

[vale oar]

The sword is upgraded now so you can block enemies' attack and reflect it if your Morale is above 50

[crimson folio]

Yippee

[steady aurora]

True, they are. At least they only appear a few times

[frozen heart]

Dusk guy should have a pager

[steady aurora]

Also Dusk water temple confirmed

[vale oar]

Flood Zone

As I mentioned before, both Dusk's and Duke3D's E3M3s are Flood Cities:D

[steady aurora]

The thing I am glad about is, is that Amid Evil will help keep me company when waiting for Ep3, it's a win win situation!

[vale oar]

Yeah

[crimson folio]

Both really are so good

[steady aurora]

and so different too!

[vale oar]

The enemy variety in Solar Solstice is greater than in prev episodes

[steady aurora]

I like how they made the small dudes green, they fit in so well and stand out! Also those reflector dudes, holy fuuuuck

[crimson folio]

Oh just found that pic of AE 4th episode... Is that a clock tower?

[frozen heart]

spoilers

[vale oar]

It is a DICK tower

[steady aurora]

phallic tower

^ official level name(jk)

[vale oar]

lol

This episode looks like E1 but is much more open-spaced

[steady aurora]

a little bit

also

don't go in the well

[vale oar]

lol yeah

I wish they didn't spoiled that

[steady aurora]

ah well, at least they didn't show big meany head

[vale oar]

yeah

[steady aurora]

cause seeing the boss

would ruin the bigger surprise

[vale oar]

Sure thing

[steady aurora]

About the first level, I really feel still left in the dark for what that has in store for it

[vale oar]

Actually E3M2 and E3M3 felt more memorable

But that's okay

The greatest things are ahead anyway

[steady aurora]

Yeah, I really liked E3M2

[vale oar]

And E3M2? That Ice and Lava contrast

soo cooool

[steady aurora]

AND THAT CONNECTED LEVEL DESIGN

[vale oar]

Yeah

[steady aurora]

damn so good

[vale oar]

Always liked looped stuff

[steady aurora]

Just makes it that much more better, I want to get my ass onto Trench Broom hella soon and make some stuff. Always have been fond of level design, ever since the days I played Minecraft

[vale oar]

I like how the level design gets more and more complex

Ep1 is pretty simple

Ep2 is more twisted

And Ep3 is gonna be something {SOMETHING}

[steady aurora]

just all memes and upside down shit

[vale oar]

Lol the memes written upside down:D

[steady aurora]

yep just like April Fools day discord

[vale oar]

haha yes

that was fun

[steady aurora]

constantly turning my head to read everything, jeeez

[vale oar]

Well I could intuitively read the channel names and nicknames

Guess I've been hanging out here for too long to memorize them lol

[steady aurora]

Yeah, I was just second guessing myself a bunch. This discord is my home

I live here

I feed off meme scraps

[vale oar]

Lol

[steady aurora]

and shillbot haunts me in my dreams

[vale oar]

This community is great - no idiotic fellas, no youngster "GRAFIX SUX" shit etc

[steady aurora]

jokes aside, this is a damn solid community

[vale oar]

true

PRAISE OUR DISCORD CULT

PRAISE OUR GREAT LEADER EL OSHCURO

[steady aurora]

all hail our holy lord

[vale oar]

Bow down before him

[steady aurora]

we shall hold sermons both morning and evening

[vale oar]

And remember

Don't go in the ruins

..and wells.

[steady aurora]

going to end up flooding more than your basement

[vale oar]

Yeah it will be like Waterworld

[dull remnant]

The ruins held knowledge

We sold our souls for it

[vale oar]

The ruins held memes

[steady aurora]

said knowledge

[dull remnant]

Wendigo is a meme

[steady aurora]

hahah

knowledge = means

good

[vale oar]

not Wendigo, Wendingo - that is a meme

[dull remnant]

I just learned something lol. Had no idea that satan creature actually existed in myth

fuuuuck that guy

[vale oar]

Yeah that is Algonquinian's mythology iirc

[steady aurora]

yeah I think it's part of Pagan mythology as well

[dull remnant]

I poop a little bit every time I hear that breathing

[vale oar]

And the reveal sound!

Pants=shat

[steady aurora]

Did they end up removing the footprints it left behind? Cause when I played through yesterday I saw none of that, and was damn happy

[dull remnant]

The footprints are there

[vale oar]

Wait what

How did it..

[steady aurora]

what?

[dull remnant]

The fall must have broken your flashlight @vale oar

btw, I played through until the pitch black of ep. 2 before realizing there was a damn flashlight. I missed the prompt lol

[vale oar]

The footprints are there lol

[dull remnant]

I didn't realize until I was looking at what keybinds people were using for MP 😫

[steady aurora]

Oh well, guess I was playing really dark

which I was

and I was immersed as fuck

[vale oar]

The best solution will be adding an option to keep\remove Wendigo footprints

imo

[dull remnant]

Why remove them?

[vale oar]

Well

idk their invisibility makes little sense for me if you see the footprints

or at least make them less visible

[dull remnant]

Why would the blood be invisible though. I never thought of it as their blood. I thought it was the blood of their trampled foes

[vale oar]

doesn't matter whose blood it is, the matter is it completely unveils the Wendigo

So the spooky effect seems a little... broken

[dull remnant]

meh, I'm a baby. Give me all the warnings you can lol

[vale oar]

lol

So that is why the option would be great - for you it is Footprints=ON, for me =OFF

[steady aurora]

I just like the pure idea of having to detect something moving or the noise of it's breathing behind your back

[dull remnant]

I gotcha

I don't play horror games 😛

[vale oar]

@steady aurora they said something about deaf people

[steady aurora]

true true

did click to me

[dull remnant]

ahhh, yea that makes a lot of sense

[vale oar]

But then again, the option would do great for both categories

[jaunty meteor]

I seriously doubt they're going to add a footprints toggle to satisfy the extreme minority of people who care

And to be even more cynical, requests like that give developers the sort of headaches that make them not want to show things to the public until they're done :p

[dull remnant]

? Wendigo isn't new

[placid pebble]

i missed the stream

its there a vod or mirror¡

or info of the new stuff?

[steady aurora]

I mean to each there own. I understand if some things have to get added/removed

you can check twitch EVGA and past broadcast of today, it was about an hour long so skip through it in that broadcast

[placid pebble]

tranks bro ❤

some spoilers to know?

[vale oar]

@placid pebble https://clips.twitch.tv/NaiveFancySparrowFailFish

hit continue Watching

And have fun

[dull remnant]

ermm. Well for AE they run through m1 and the beginning of m2 and 3. Dusk was a little less spoilery

Though I dunno, they played quite a bit of Dusk too lol. No story stuff in either, but each show parts of 3 missions.

[placid pebble]

so E3M1 E3M2 and E3M3 ;00

[steady aurora]

um I mean a lot of cool stuff was shown sooo spoilers are present but nothing like bosses, a couple new enemies too were shown

[placid pebble]

i call spoilers to all the things

like, levels, screenshots, etc

[supple vessel]

dog in a box 😂

[solar olive]

Dogbox

[steady aurora]

he's a gud boi

[solar olive]

gurl

[jaunty meteor]

@dim valve Also to put this to rest, the only public title that the protag of Dusk has at the moment is what David called him in that interview from several years ago, a "treasure hunter"

Internally his name is "the intruder" and informally he's "duskdude", but there are no citations substantiating those names ATM so I don't want to add them to Wikipedia

[dim valve]

yeah but

that killscreen article you linked?

[jaunty meteor]

What about it?

[dim valve]

not exactly reputable

[jaunty meteor]

That's not how citations work

[dim valve]

also the dusk twitter link got suspended, lol

[jaunty meteor]

I'm using it to substantiate info about Dusk's lore, not its release date

This interview was made only a month or two after NB had picked up Dusk, at the time that info was accurate

[atomic egret]

coming out in 2017

lol

[crisp lion]

Dave confirmed on the PAX Stream that canonically The Intruder/DuskDude is following the Cult Leader

[opaque spindle]

So that means DuskDude is going to kill Dave

[dim valve]

he said "following the cult leader" but that could mean he's following the cult leader back to his hometurf to settle the score 🤔

Canonically, The Intruder™ has never actually killed a single person. Every single enemy killed in Dusk is merely a "what-if" scenario, always being retconned out by the next game. 🤓

[jaunty meteor]

And that's why Wikipedia has a rule against paraphrasing citations

[crisp lion]

I didn't know tumbleweeds were a feature of DUSK

[opal plover]

You mean dust clouds like in E2M1?

[crisp lion]

no it was a joke due to how empty it is atm

[opal plover]

Hey what if we speculate about what the change of tone at the end of E3 will be.

I suspect lovecraftian sci-fi

Also cult leader will be called yrhso evad.

[jade root]

kek

[prisma halo]

to win the game...

[jade root]

To win the game must beat me, Zombie, creator of Brutal Doom

[sly path]

To beat the game you have to fight a mutated fusion of David Oshyr and John Romero.

[winged otter]

that moment when you going out of closed rooms and you see sun and clouds,is one of the most memorable moments in Dusk

[jade root]

Yeah

I remember when I first played that level

"There's sunlight in this game?"

People were saying is was too contrasting, which means it had an effect which meant it was working

[crimson folio]

When is ep3 coming out?

[rare musk]

[vague egret]

Sometime between now and the heat death of the universe

[crimson folio]

Ok

[solar olive]

Probably when half-life3 comes out

[vague egret]

That target is within the next few months. But we always operate on a "when it's done" schedule. We don't give dates

[crimson folio]

So what is the cult offering cuz there is A LOT of members?

[shut mesa]

cool robes, BBQ and beer

[crimson folio]

Magic powers

[balmy cipher]

Free chainsaws for all interested

[steady aurora]

Well sign me up!

I was sold at BBQ and Beer

[crimson folio]

Rip big John, he was too pure for this world

[vague egret]

[pulsar bough]

Thanks shillboi

[crimson folio]

so some areas in game are more CPU intenSteve and others are more GPU ?

[mild ginkgo]

Very few are gpu intensive

Because of the Low polycount and low resolution textures

[dull remnant]

I don't think I've dropped below 165 fps on my 1080 @1440p 😛

[vale oar]

Hey what about my 700 fps dudes

[dull remnant]

goodbye gpu

[vale oar]

New Blood break you PCs

by forcing FPS limit to Unlimited

[vague egret]

Shhh
You're not supposed to know our secret plan

Cease all investigation immediately

[vale oar]

[molten peak]

When ever I play the original FEAR I get upwards of 1200 fps

[vale oar]

Too many secret plans

Let me investigate just one

PLZ

[dull remnant]

@molten peak , you probably shouldn't do that

[molten peak]

Yeah, but I don't have it installed now. At some point I'll want to reinstall it again, so I'll just look up how to lock it to 60

[vale oar]

GPU control panel should do the trick

[dull remnant]

^

[vale oar]

There is a chance to get a little input lag but that's okay

not critical one

[eternal carbon]

I'd at least lock it to double your refresh rate + 1 for minimal input lag

[balmy cipher]

I Just played a few levels in last night and I was spooped. It's so atmospheric

I wish I bumped up the difficulty tho, normal was 2 ez imo

[vale oar]

Yeah that is right

Cero miedo is also a bit easy in ep1

but in ep2 it does WELL

[balmy cipher]

Should I bump up all the way? Or is it crazy?

Too crazy*

[vale oar]

I reccomend you to run ep1 on Cero miedo+ INTRUDER MODE = ON

[balmy cipher]

Intruder mode?

[vale oar]

Ep2 is doing fine on CM alone

Yes

This is the "pistolstart"

After completing a level you lose all your weapons

[balmy cipher]

Fuck yeah bud

I'll try it

[vale oar]

[crimson folio]

Try running ep1 on duskmare no saving

[vale oar]

lol

[jaunty meteor]

Duskmare is a gimmick difficulty for after you've conquered everything else

[vale oar]

Well imo that is a bit odd

A purely challenge mode

[jaunty meteor]

If you routinely played older shooters on their highest difficulties then starting with Cero is fine, ignore the warning

[crimson folio]

Honestly the hardest level is the Erebus reactor

[vale oar]

The best tactics there is to stick to the walls wiping out everything with the hunting gun from afar

btw I can clearly remember a couple of wendigos at E2M6 at PAX Aus build demo

Looks like they have been replaced by the cowgirls

[crimson folio]

Cowgirls/ mama arouse me and scare me

[vale oar]

True

Those lamentations...

AAH-OOH

[jaunty meteor]

They're a more immediate threat for players who are flying around everywhere

For that matter you can probably expect similar changes to what you saw of EP3

[vale oar]

Yeeeah probably yeah

[vale oar]

Ep3 boss REVEALED

[crimson folio]

big slim john joe?

dont know him

[vale oar]

Meh

Just Slim Joe

[eternal carbon]

[vale oar]

[vague egret]

im sure one of you fucked up nerds is working on it. if it hasnt happened already

[vale oar]

@vague egret

[tawny briar]

[vale oar]

But anyway none of you will see it

Cause otherwise 🔨

[crimson folio]

Somebody drop DUSK stream please

[vale oar]

https://clips.twitch.tv/NaiveFancySparrowFailFish

[crimson folio]

i mean full stream with 3rd episode presentation

[vale oar]

Yeah just hit Continue Watcjing to the right of the player

Watching

03:30:50 is approximate Dusk ep3 timing

[crimson folio]

found it

thank you very much

[vale oar]

[tawny briar]

never knew that was a thing

[crimson folio]

it looks very raw so I think it will take about 2 months to release 3rd episode

*and i ve fallen in love with dave

[vale oar]

People (including me) are expecting late May - early June release

[prisma ivy]

The release date is Soon™

[vale oar]

DONT TELL DAVE

[crimson folio]

i wont)

[vale oar]

I hate Soon.

Fuck.

😦

[crimson folio]

me as well

soon soon - dame it. cant beleive that dusk team cant determine deadlines

*set deadlines

[vale oar]

Let em take their time anyways

We do not want the raw and unplayable piece of shit

Well

Dusk is ALREADY NOT a piece of shit tho 😄

hahahaha

but you got it i guess

[crimson folio]

they had enough time i guess

but maybe i m wrong

and game development is extremly complicated

[vale oar]

yep

[crimson folio]

but DUSK certainly the game that doesnt reqiure so much time to prepare

especially considering the fact that its development was started in 2016

[prisma ivy]

You would be suprised

Try making a game sometime :P

[vale oar]

Can't agree on that dude

EACH game takes much time

otherwise

we get Hunt down the freeman

no man's sky etc

[crimson folio]

@prisma ivy that is not an argument

[prisma ivy]

?

[molten peak]

the fuck

It is

Actually

[vale oar]

@molten peak DAFAQ

[vague egret]

you're right. we could probably shit out a game in a couple months, take your $20, and you will be disappointed because it didnt live up to the hype. that sounds pretty fucked up

i rather us take our time, make something good, and everyone enjoy it

[vale oar]

Hey really

NB is the company that actually gives a shit about customers

[crisp lion]

definitely

I mean @gleaming berry is proof of that

[vale oar]

The dudes are chatting here WITH US, the customers, read our messages and feedback threads

[crimson folio]

Take ur time guys

[prisma ivy]

Dave actually hates money you heard it here first

[crimson folio]

Let the artist work

[vale oar]

Dave likes vitamins

[molten peak]

And only some of the time they kill us for pinging them, not all the time

[crisp lion]

xXx Vitamin water

[crimson folio]

And punish the plebs

[gleaming berry]

WHO DARES

[shut mesa]

EEEE

[gleaming berry]

INTERRUPT MY FANCY DINNER

[prisma ivy]

The fucking mad man

[vale oar]

@gleaming berry ME

[vague egret]

GO AWAY DAVE

[crimson folio]

@vague egret as i ve said i might be wrong talking about game dev. if you guys going to preapare something awesome - im ready to wait but i have some doubts

Yo, do u got some vitamins dude

[crimson folio]

besides i ve already purchased the game

[prisma ivy]

Game development is extremely time consuming

That is

[vague egret]

believe it when you see it bro. just sit tight

[prisma ivy]

If you want a good game

[vale oar]

Winemin water, Dave, yeah
