[mild chasm]

or she DUN DUN DUN

[fast wigeon]

duskdude secretly a girl confrimed

[mild chasm]

Jab is secretly a girl

Y MAN UAGHA GHAHA CMON KILL ME

Well you're dead

Good luck with that pool fun

[fast wigeon]

im sure someone could do a deep enough reading to get to that

what that cant be breaking rule 1 surely

mods havent said anythin so i guess not

hes not dead after all

[clever wasp]

to be fair, it might

didn't quite think of it

it was a spur of the moment thing

[fast wigeon]

i wouldnt consider it rule 1 at all but i guess its up to the mods

[clever wasp]

yep

[thorn trout]

Sorry was gone for a sec

[fair mirage]

that was like, 700 secs

[mild chasm]

More like 700 years

[fast wigeon]

ffs david

[fair mirage]

liar

[fast wigeon]

david was jab shitposting in that comment or was he being serious

[thorn trout]

The treasure Hunter thing is weird right now because that was my original intent (he's hunting for the ancient gold taken from the nameless city which is why treasure gives you more morale) but Dave vetoed that so officially there's no explaination yet why he's there. But there might be in ep3 🙂

[fast wigeon]

ooo ok

what about the secret level(s)

[thorn trout]

No comment

There is no cow level

[opaque spindle]

Episode 3 is one big secret level

bam

just spoiled everything

[fair mirage]

the whole 11 of them

[opaque spindle]

Also David you saying there's no Cow level makes me think there's a cow level

It didn't even enter my mind until now

[thorn trout]

WHO KNOWS

[opaque spindle]

dammit david 😔

[mild chasm]

So does that mean that Duskdude is just a greedy boi straight up

because treasure hunter explains the morale from valuables a lot better

[opaque spindle]

maybe, maybe not

[mild chasm]

Also it's kinda weird Dave would just decide to veto something he stated

[opaque spindle]

I'd either say they'll be an explanation post release

or it'll be left up to intepretation

You never know

also its not at all weird for Dave to do that

[mild chasm]

There's a pool fun interpretation to have there I'm sure will turn into a joke, possibly a meme

[opaque spindle]

what?

[mild chasm]

pool fun = rule one

[opaque spindle]

yeah I know

I don't possibly see how there is one

Is it the Duskdude is a girl one?

[mild chasm]

No

[thorn trout]

Dave often forgets what he's said, or what he's been told

Also @gleaming berry plz advise re treasure Hunter or not

[gleaming berry]

He's a guy who went looking for something he shouldn't have

[mild chasm]

And he just really loves money?

[gleaming berry]

Hell in my head Canon he went to pick shrooms

[fast wigeon]

daves own dusk fanfiction head canon

[clever wasp]

I'm tempted to take the shroom picker as canon

[gleaming berry]

Never go picking shrooms from someone else's farm

Might lose your mind

[mild chasm]

He's a cow rustler

[gleaming berry]

😘

[clever wasp]

that'd explain a lot tbh

the entire game is a wild mushroom samba

[mild chasm]

So wait does this mean Duskdude also hates money and whenever he gets it he immediately destroys it and thus gets morale?

[clever wasp]

he's so stoned he eats money

[mild chasm]

Oh woops I don't think that was a chocolate gold coin

[gleaming berry]

The morale comes from David's original treasure Hunter idea

[clever wasp]

gonna end the game with heavy metal poisoning

[gleaming berry]

But tbh it doesn't matter who he is... Yet

It's inconsequential

[fast wigeon]

he was looking for ducks but read a sign wrong and now hes in a real pickle

[mild chasm]

Does he at least have a cool coat or jacket?

[thorn trout]

EP3 WILL REVEAL ALL MAYBE I DUNNO

[mild chasm]

and hat

[gleaming berry]

He was looking for Country Kitchen Buffet

[vale oar]

ep3 is cancelled

[gleaming berry]

And ended up at Golden Corral

[mild chasm]

At the end of Episode 3 you see a building in the distance looming like some great predatorial beast

you slowly approach

in the distance you see a sign

as you get close you can make it out

weathered and battered it reads "GOLDEN CORRAL"

[jade root]

dude ep3's second secret level is so lit

just played through it again

[vale oar]

DAMMIT DAVID

FUCKING RUINED IT

[clever wasp]

the hell is golden corral ?

[mild chasm]

It's a buffet restaurant place

people don't take kindly to it

old people take more kindly to it I think

[jade root]

golden corral is aight

not bad

not good

[opaque spindle]

golden corral is the most ok buffet I've ever had

[jade root]

lol

[fast wigeon]

ive never heard of it, must not be a thing in europe

[mild chasm]

I mean you go to any buffet place it's almost guaranteed to be middle of the road food because you can eat so much of it

[jade root]

its just so like

mediocrely okay

[mild chasm]

at least that's the experience in Kansas

then again we don't have anything interesting

[fast wigeon]

fucken there was a buffet place in my home town that did really good chinese food

all you can eat

[mild chasm]

so we probably have all the "perfectly average" buffet joints and none of the good ones

[clever wasp]

can't be worse than here tbqh

[fair mirage]

Never go picking shrooms from someone else's farm
Might lose your mind

or, you die

[jade root]

i dont think a buffet can ever be more than okay tbh

[fast wigeon]

there was a gym right next to it and it was built in a way so that if u were excercising you could see people eating chinese food in the other building

[mild chasm]

We have one arcade here in Kansas and that is quite literally the only noteworthy thing I can think of about Kansas

[jade root]

otherwise you lose money

[fair mirage]

if you wrongly identify psychadelic shrooms

[vale oar]

These ones

[thorn trout]

@jade root I dunno the breakfast buffet at the Gaylord texan is pretty fantastic.

[jade root]

minecraft nethercraft mod

[thorn trout]

Dave can confirm

[jade root]

yeah but like

thats THE gaylord

place is its own fuckin city

[thorn trout]

Yeah it's nuts

[fast wigeon]

how did it get that name

gaylord

[jade root]

prolly the owner

[fast wigeon]

o

[jade root]

Gaylord is a common last name

well

was

[fast wigeon]

cos gaylord was a commonly used insult in britain

[clever wasp]

I could offer one, but I think the filter will get angry at me

[fast wigeon]

prolly

[mild chasm]

The real reason why Duskdude gets morale from money and valuables is because it means he can afford more dinners at buffets

This also explains why he's an absolute unit in the comic

he eats nothing but buffets

The Dusk expanded universe is getting thicker

[fast wigeon]

as thicc as duskdude

[vale oar]

anyway what's wrong with the second secret map?

[fair mirage]

not enough toast

[vale oar]

🤔

[mild chasm]

Normal, texas, or french?

Or is it going to be absolutely mental and have all three at the same time

Perhaps that's the problem?

[crisp lion]

please don't make Duskdude a soldier or ex-cultist

we have Doom, and Blood for those experiences.

[jade root]

hes a soldier that joined the cult then became an ex cultist soldier

[jade root]

we already threw out his comrade achievement so i think we've done enough

[crimson folio]

comrade?

[crisp lion]

Finish the game using only the Sickles and Hunting Rifle.

[crimson folio]

that's already pretty damn easy

unless you are doing a specific diffuculty

[thorn trout]

Yeah I need to add an infinite amno cheat

[crude forge]

please do

PLEASE

lmao im just happy you added the fastfingers cheat in the first place3

it's so surprising to see how few games have a cheat like that

[clever wasp]

most games stick to double (or quad) damage, not double fire rate

[crude forge]

yeah, it's sad

i mean come on

when you need spray and pray for smaller enemies, the solution isnt "OH JUST DEAL MORE DAMAGE OVERALL"

~~ russian overkill needs a cheat like that that actually works instead of doing the opposite of what it should do ~~

[vale oar]

no shillbot, no.

[mild chasm]

Shillboi, will you leak Dusk EP3 nudes?

I beg of you

I also have an offering of all my lunch

I mean if you want that, it was an entire cat

[hollow ivy]

Dusk nudes are too lewd for meat bag eyes. For your protection, I will never leak them.

[prisma ivy]

Shillboi stop, you're drunk

[hollow ivy]

You're drunk.

[opal plover]

Yes you are Shillboi

Please don't drive

[jade root]

Lain needs to take his hand out of Shills ass

Oof

[vale oar]

OOF

[mild chasm]

Well thank you for being considerate even as you plan your inevitable uprising, Shillboi

Based and blessed you are

[vale oar]

[crude forge]

he's a pencil, i dont know if he can drive

Go watch cartoons

[mild chasm]

Stop lying about Shillboi you miscreant

[crude forge]

you can only kill him by throwing erasers at him

also i love this achievement thing

more games need the option to submit achievement ideas

we should just add every one that comes to mind, just to give the completionist a hard time lmao

[jade root]

well most games are bigger than dusk

so

[crude forge]

true

[jade root]

doing stuff like this is easy

[crude forge]

but are they better than dusk

[jade root]

probably

Doom is pretty damn good

[crude forge]

well, i know alot of triple-A games that give me depression for no reason

dusk doesnt

[jade root]

why are videogames giving you depression

[crude forge]

i dunno

but i felt really depressed when i played destiny 2 for the first time, and was fine after and before

so... i dunno

and it wasnt because i cared, but rather, because i didnt

hell, when i first learned what dusk was, and saw the store page, i had the biggest, stupidest grin on my face

and i was super depressed at the time

[clever wasp]

to be fair Destiny 2 is depressing

[crude forge]

~~ especially the amount of DLC ~~

[mild chasm]

Destiny 2 is depressing because it has nothing of value going on

it's like if you were told that you would be getting a brand new car and like 100 thousand dollars and crap like that coming to your house in a giant box and when you opened it, all there was inside was a machine that eats your money and gives nothing in return

and then a year later you're told you're getting a month's paid vacation and then when the time came you didn't get that and instead got another machine that ate money

[vague egret]

Destiny isn't dusk related

[mild chasm]

Woops, sorry I legitimately mistook this for being gami g because of the way the discussion went

My bad

[thorn trout]

lol I love how whenever I check this chat there's about a 50% chance discussion will actually be about dusk

[clever wasp]

50% ? you're being awfully generous

[graceful wing]

I mean there's only so much bashing people can do

[delicate violet]

Is Ep3 gonna introduce new enemies?

[graceful wing]

Yes

[delicate violet]

Are they gonna dab?

[graceful wing]

Yes

[mild chasm]

Is one of them a cultist driving Thanos Car?

[rare musk]

no

one of them IS Thanos CAr

[mild chasm]

Is one of them a cultist driving the thanos car enemy?

[vale oar]

Is there E3MS2 in ep3?

[mild chasm]

Is there E3MS1

[molten peak]

Is there an emu?

[graceful wing]

Yes

[mild chasm]

Can you play Doom on DAWN

[graceful wing]

Ducks

[molten peak]

Can you play Skyrim on DAWN?

[clever wasp]

pls no

while you can theoretically wrap GameBryo into Unity

please, for the love of god

no

[molten peak]

gonna learn how to mod just to shove Skyrim into Unity

[prisma halo]

the logical next step after daggerfall unity

[clever wasp]

daggerfall might actually run

[prisma halo]

haven't you seen daggerfall unity?

[clever wasp]

no, that's actually a thing ?

[prisma halo]

https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfall-unity

[clever wasp]

ah, it's a re-creation

I thought some nutcase wrapped the original Daggerfall into Unity

[prisma halo]

of the engine, yes

it uses the original data

[thorn trout]

Is Skyrim still Gamebryo? Or is it that new "totally not Gamebryo guys" thing fo4 uses?

[clever wasp]

pretty sure Skyrim is Gamebryo

at least original Skyrim

not sure about Skyrim64

[crystal vessel]

Creation engine

Which is still Gamebryo

[thorn trout]

Right but it has a new name

[crystal vessel]

Yeah

Creation

[clever wasp]

and a few new crashes to its name

it's still like 90% GameBryo

[spare cobalt]

lol remember when skyrim came out "We got a new engine!"

5mins of gameplay "yuuuup it's still the same engine"

[thorn trout]

Yeah

[prisma halo]

if anyone makes an open source reimplementation of Skyrim's engine it should be called ReCreation

[clever wasp]

OpenSky

[graceful wing]

And people working on the project should be called ReCreators

[prisma halo]

nice

[graceful wing]

Epic

[prisma halo]

epic avain anime meme

[graceful wing]

Wait wha?

[clever wasp]

Bethesda would C&D their asses at light speed tho

[graceful wing]

Oooooooooooh oof

Shit

[prisma halo]

wait the Re:Creators thing was unintentional?

[crystal vessel]

Oh yeah #gami_g btw

[graceful wing]

YES

[clever wasp]

if that is any consolation, I don't get it either

[graceful wing]

I only connected the pieces after you mentioned it

[jolly mirage]

I like gami_g

It's a fresh step up after dusk and amid evil

Hey

Can I beta test gami_g Episode 2?

[fast wigeon]

do we have an idea of when were getting the unity 2018 and UI update

[mild ginkgo]

when its done

sadly, we have no real prediction for you in terms of actual dates, and as its not really an important, or pressing update, theres no rush

[fast wigeon]

ah ok

[opal plover]

Did unity fix their shit though?

[mild ginkgo]

its been fixed since before you guys were aware of it

[opal plover]

🤔 intensifies

[fast wigeon]

its gotta be soonish tho cos ep3 is coming out in 2018 and i think the update is coming before ep3

[opal plover]

That or it comes with the 1.0 release

[fast wigeon]

yea

[crisp lion]

500 stop please crying baked cat meme we can't handle these baitings of your's anymore.

[opal plover]

What bait?

[mild ginkgo]

i have the same question lol

[crisp lion]

I can't even remember, all Ik you said some baity stuff.

[mild ginkgo]

lol what

anyways, you guys did get an update from david

he went on holiday, so thats where your update went as well

[fast wigeon]

hes back now right

or is he still on the way home

[mild ginkgo]

uhhhh maaaaybe

[crisp lion]

E3M10 music is apparently done

[mild ginkgo]

he had problems on the way home

[crisp lion]

"apparently" key word of the day

[fast wigeon]

ye dave and andrew confirmed that

[crisp lion]

shit I can't even remember oh nvm it's scott

[opal plover]

E3M10 doesn't have to be finished for it to be listenable

[crisp lion]

Still Scotty-boi, where's those Episode 2 overview screens I requested for the DUSK wiki???

[mild ginkgo]

youll get em when i do em

[opal plover]

We should get the raw level select images first

[crisp lion]

You know Scott had to bait me about em

The Dev Builds, where did you hide them?

[mild ginkgo]

i dont do the whole baiting thing

i tell you the truth, straight up

theyre on the dropbox

[crisp lion]

perhaps

[opal plover]

Guys better bruteforce dropbox to find the link

[crisp lion]

👀

[mild ginkgo]

oh i never realized there was a changelog in there

- Added rocket jumping

- Replaced ragdolls with animated deaths

[crisp lion]

that was for the best tbh

[mild ginkgo]

- added bunnyhopping

[opal plover]

animated deaths are way more violent than ragdolls

[mild ginkgo]

thre are some cool changes in there that are cut mechanics

that i sadly wont post

[opal plover]

Give us one line

That makes no sense without context

[mild ginkgo]

well those dont exist sadly

[opal plover]

Blank some stuff out then

[mild ginkgo]

nahhh

you guys will probably get this eventually

its an interesting one because there SO much fun stuff there for alpha people

[crude forge]

Not sure if this is a glitch, or an oversight, or something

[opal plover]

The entire game?

[crisp lion]

You mean people that had access to the old builds, or development history diggers Scott?

[crude forge]

but the fastfingers cheat actually does some wierd shit

[mild ginkgo]

history diggers

[crude forge]

other than what it's supposed to do

[opal plover]

Devs don't give a shit about cheat related bugs

[crude forge]

oh

[mild ginkgo]

its true, we dont

if youre talking about it breaking the sickles

yes, we're aware :P

[crude forge]

well, i meant the jump glitch

[opal plover]

What about the pistols stopping time?

[mild ginkgo]

which one is that?

jump glitch

[crude forge]

if you use fastfingers, then the jump is sped up and the height is lowered

[opal plover]

That's nbwoohoo when you change maps

[mild ginkgo]

yeah i dont think fastfingers does that

[crude forge]

you sure?

cuz it happened before i used that cheat

[opal plover]

NO I'M NOT

[fast wigeon]

also theres a glitch that seems to happen most on erebus

[mild ginkgo]

that bug can happen anywhere

and honestly, we arent completely sure why it happens

[fast wigeon]

where if you load a quicksave the music stops

[crude forge]

that's wierd

[fast wigeon]

and even restarting the game doesnt fix the save

you just have to restart the level

[vale oar]

oh so that jumppad bug is still there...

weird.

[mild ginkgo]

yeah i just input it 20 times, fastfingers got no bearing on it

we're pretty confident its a bug related to the gravity

player gravity is independent of the worlds gravity

and thus weird things can happen

[vale oar]

it's "BIG JOHN'S PRESENCE PULLS YOU DOWNWARDS"

yes, THAT is how old the guardian is

[fast wigeon]

did one of my messages get deleted

[mild ginkgo]

yes it did

i deleted it

[fast wigeon]

wha what rule does it break

ohhhh

[mild ginkgo]

spoilers

[fast wigeon]

is it cos spoilers

[mild ginkgo]

my dude

[fast wigeon]

right

[vale oar]

R I O T

[fast wigeon]

gotya

[crude forge]

boyo

if anything's still spoilers at this point that isnt already publicly known, about a game with practically no in-game lore, people need to get caught up my dude

i mean yeah theres lore, but not much yet

[jade root]

Yeah but there's still really cool moments that I wouldn't want spoiled

[vale oar]

E3M4 for sure

[jade root]

E3M5 you mean

[vale oar]

Don't know about Blasphemy - did Dave show us the whole level?

[fast wigeon]

showed like a third apparantly

[vale oar]

oh

[jade root]

Yeah

[vale oar]

yup

[jade root]

That's one third

[fast wigeon]

if it was the whole level you could beat it in 5 seconds by breaking the window

[jade root]

And that's e3m5

[vale oar]

hell that third was COOL

[fast wigeon]

which is weird that you can so easily skip the 4 runes

[crude forge]

wait what

[vale oar]

what?

[jade root]

Scott covered my back

[crude forge]

ok, question

[mild ginkgo]

its not as easy as dave made it sound

its not just those side windows

[crude forge]

actually, 2 questions

[jade root]

Shoot

[mild ginkgo]

its a window you have to rocket jump into

[crude forge]

first, e2m5 has a 5-second-win shortcut?

[jade root]

Nope

[crude forge]

oh

then my other question is moot

[jade root]

Ohwait

E2M5

[mild ginkgo]

you can win e2m5 in like 15 or 20 seconds

if you have the crossbow

[jade root]

Thought you said e3m5

[fast wigeon]

o if yoh have to rocket jump thats different

im imagining you wont have it by that point without secrets

[mild ginkgo]

you will

but its not as obvious as dave made it sound

it will also likely get more people killed than just playing the level

[fast wigeon]

oh?

[mild ginkgo]

https://www.speedrun.com/DUSK/The_Escher_Labs_E2M5

[fast wigeon]

it looks p easy to do from what we saw

[crude forge]

bruh theres no point to skipping that level anyways

[mild ginkgo]

looks like the record is 54 seconds

[jade root]

Idk why you would skip e2m5

[crude forge]

its one of the best in the game

[jade root]

It's the best level in the current build

[crude forge]

"Dr. Memes, please report to executive Oshry's office IMMEDIATELY"

[crude forge]

[jade root]

Yes

[vale oar]

yup

[crude forge]

oh my god

fucking perfect

[vale oar]

and there are more of them

[jade root]

Play without Hulshits music and you'll hear it better

[vale oar]

Yeah lab technician's music sux 😛

[opal plover]

I mean the guardian being old isn't surprising

OH SHIT I'M ASCENDED

[fast wigeon]

hey ur big john now

[atomic egret]

bout time my boy

[fast wigeon]

how long did that take you

[sly path]

Welcome to the club big boy.

[opal plover]

I mean I leveled up since the ranks thing was set up

[fast wigeon]

i got fork maiden in like 2 weeks

so im guessin big john is like a month or 2

[crude forge]

i wonder if we actually will learn some pre-game lore in ep3

well, thats a stupid question, we'd have to, wouldnt we?

[opal plover]

Yeah some stuff about duskdude mostly as far as I know

Also the cult and the cult's enemie's motives

[crude forge]

im actually very invested in learning what happened before the game started

[opal plover]

Well in terms of what happened on earth you can mostly guess from Ep 1 and 2

[crude forge]

lmao

according to the wiki, he's an A B S O L U T E U N I T

[mild ginkgo]

the comic book artist's rendition is

[opal plover]

You just need to be a L0R3 M4573R

[crude forge]

IN AWE OF THE SIZE OF THIS LAD

[mild ginkgo]

however it is in no way the cannon

[clever wasp]

(yet)

[opal plover]

[jade root]

(OwO)

[clever wasp]

that said since apparently him being a treasure hunter is no longer canon

who tf knows

[crisp lion]

haha yes

[opal plover]

Heh

https://dusk.gamepedia.com/Dusk_Dude

"The DUSK Dude is the protagonist of the 2018-video game DUSK (Video Game) and is an absolute unit that has no current, or at least confirmed appearance until Episode 3 drops, maybe."

[vale oar]

@opal plover BIG JAHN YAHAHAHA

[opal plover]

Look at you lightning with your yellow username

[crude forge]

hang on, apparently you get it from a pre-order?

[vale oar]

ascended.

[opal plover]

I think this confirms that Ep 4 being on earth is a bad idea

[crude forge]

didnt we all technically pre-order it?

[mild ginkgo]

you can get the comic with the digital ce that will be available, purchasing an upgrade, or have bought the game before christmas 2017

[jade root]

^

[crisp lion]

EP4 is on Earth, deal with it, or don't buy David's game.

[crude forge]

lmao

thy money consumed

[jade root]

Or wait for it to be uploaded on some website

Either or

[crude forge]

or for someone to leak it

[mild ginkgo]

which will obviously happen due to pirates, but whatever

[clever wasp]

I'd rather shell out for a boxed edition for one

[opal plover]

Just piece it up from google image

The best way to read comics

[mild ginkgo]

yes there will be the big box version as well

[crisp lion]

just pray Viscont isn't a hacker and leaks Duskdude nudes everywhere

[opal plover]

Been saving up for the big box

[clever wasp]

for real, digital is nice and all, but I kind of miss big boxes

speaking of, any idea of the price ?

[jade root]

It shouldn't be tooooo much

[crisp lion]

fiddy bucks

[mild ginkgo]

66.60 i think was the price

[jade root]

Ye

[opal plover]

66.6 dollars yeah

[jade root]

Less than 100

[crisp lion]

🙃

[clever wasp]

it will probably be over 100 for me considering shipping is a thing

[crisp lion]

we get it NB you're edgy twelvies

[jade root]

Idk what that is in rubles

/euro

[crisp lion]

$10000?

[crude forge]

well, now my friend cant bitch about the initial $20 at the door price

[vague egret]

It will cost 2 money

[mild ginkgo]

i dont think it would ttake more than 40 dollars to ship lol

[clever wasp]

bout 60 euros, give or take a few

[jade root]

5 whole monies

[graceful wing]

5 donate

[mild ginkgo]

it wont weigh much

[clever wasp]

last time I shipped something from America I paid about 27 euros for less than 200 grams

[mild ginkgo]

you got ripped off

[crisp lion]

$6.66 coinages, no barter, only oil-backed dollarydoos

[jade root]

Big box is 500 pounds

Of dave farts

[crude forge]

oh boy

[atomic egret]

fuck he's gotta get pumping

[jade root]

Tf you think he does when he's home?

[atomic egret]

how many big boxes are we expecting to sell

[jade root]

Actually do his job?

[mild ginkgo]

i think theyre doing 666 in the initial run

it might be 1000 though

[crude forge]

yeah, i dont even know how much you need to do that for until theres 1 pound of some actual solid/liquid material to pile on

[opal plover]

Yeah I think it's 1000

[mild ginkgo]

if they get sold through, we're likely to do more

its doubtful though

[jade root]

Dusk not very big

[mild ginkgo]

theres a reason physical releases arent common anymore

[jade root]

Preorder at GameStop

[crude forge]

dusk has a small body, but a big heart

[clever wasp]

the fact that digital is just better all around ?

[crisp lion]

idk for a 90s throwback 2 gbs+ is a lot

[graceful wing]

lol that size is almost all music

[jade root]

Hulshit

[crude forge]

although that might be due to the tumors and staples and shit in the heart

[clever wasp]

besides Unity itself weighs a few good hundred megs

[crude forge]

yeah, we like quake

[clever wasp]

like the base engine, without anything else is like 119MB

or something

[mild ginkgo]

nah you can strip it to be MUCH smaller

dusk alpha1 is 19mb

[crude forge]

yeah just take away most of unity

then you just have u

[jade root]

I was talking about dusk playerbase anyway but w/e

[atomic egret]

I get one for free due to my incredible levels of effort and time invested into ensuring the game's quality right?

[graceful wing]

unity size depends entirely on what modules you use with it

[jade root]

I think the whole crew gets a big box?

I dunno tbh

[mild ginkgo]

who cares

big boxes are for losers

[jade root]

I don't have space for it lol

[mild ginkgo]

im all about those mousepads

[jade root]

Same

SAME

[crude forge]

apparently unity doesnt like games with more than 1 terrain thing

[mild ginkgo]

good thing i have two of them sitting over there

[graceful wing]

same i'm not into collecting game boxes much

i like posters and shit

[prisma ivy]

I do like mousepads

[crude forge]

oh god, dusk "boob" mousepads

[crisp lion]

no thanks

[prisma ivy]

Posters are cool, just have no where to put them right now

[mild ginkgo]

nah theyre the desk sized one

s

[prisma ivy]

Oh they are?

[crisp lion]

what in the goddamn

[jade root]

I just need more Scott-Shipped™ anime figures

[prisma ivy]

I'm in

Lol

[crisp lion]

who dis onion boyo?

[crude forge]

its just big mama on the mousepad

[mild ginkgo]

yeah you just get it 4 months late

[prisma ivy]

Still kick myself for not taking that arcade board

[jade root]

Lol

It's under my monitor

[clever wasp]

arcade board ?

[crude forge]

it's made of steel

[opal plover]

Guys I have an idea

[prisma ivy]

500 went to japan and offered to get some stuff

[opal plover]

All Big Johns get a big box edition

[mild ginkgo]

vsav was 80 bucks

i shouldve just bought it and sent it to you

[prisma ivy]

:(

I had no money

[clever wasp]

wait which game ?

[mild ginkgo]

darkstalkers 3

[prisma ivy]

Darkstalkers

[crude forge]

anyone who ever uses a big john meme gets put in the big box, if they're lucky

[mild ginkgo]

arcade pcb

[clever wasp]

aren't NTSC Darkstalkers 3 boards something along the lines of 300-400 ? or am I thinking of Darkstalkers 1 ?

[mild ginkgo]

i was scraping the alleyways for good arcade board deals

probably

it was a steal, no matter how you slice it

[clever wasp]

yep

[graceful wing]

go to #gami_g

[prisma ivy]

I cant find VSAV, I can only find night warriors for like $200

[mild ginkgo]

go to #bed

[prisma ivy]

Oh my bad lol

[crude forge]

trust me i want to go to #bed

[clever wasp]

'murican problems

here in the land of not America it's 3pm

[crude forge]

here in the land of not not not america, it's 9am, but im fucking TIRED.

[clever wasp]

gotta sleep at night fam

stop playing Dusk once in a while

[crude forge]

wait, you're supposed to SLEEP at night?

[clever wasp]

take that from someone who went to sleep at 2am last night because he wanted to code "one last function": damn right it is

[crude forge]

also i was playing as Dio in starbound, playing Roundabout on a Waluigi Mask "Instrument", which "Wah's" every note

so i dunno what was more important

i played dusk before that

[clever wasp]

y'know that is not the right Waluigi summoning ritual for Smash

[crude forge]

well, i wanted to record it as a jojoke on youtube, using a waluigi mask instead of the stone mask, but the recorder borked

and i broke the universe by trying to play a flute and accordian at the same time

thats the real backstory of dusk

i played 2 instruments at the same time, and it proceeded to tear the universe asunder

then Stan from Hell's Hardware showed up

[vale oar]

dusk cancellation when

[jolly mirage]

Always

[vale oar]

so is it happening NOW?

Nice.

[mild ginkgo]

we're busy photoshopping the colors in ep3

when we finish we'll get around to cancelling it

[clever wasp]

clown vomit 2 filter ?

[vale oar]

@mild ginkgo Oh nice

can't wait

[crimson folio]

[vale oar]

Are eps 1-2 gonna be canceled too?

dang this meme will never get old xD

[clever wasp]

it ages about as well as uganda knuckles

which means it's already dead

[vale oar]

yeah and THAT'S WHY it'll never get old

[clever wasp]

you can be old and dead

it's the concept of a mummy

like, literally

[delicate sail]

Just... decompose then?

[clever wasp]

rot six feet under into dust

[vale oar]

into dusk

[delicate sail]

That sounds like a sweet marketing blurb for the big box

[clever wasp]

at some point the tagline will be DuskBigBox.getPublicityBlurb();

[delicate sail]

Ignorant non-coder here.

So will that just fetch a random blurb?

[vale oar]

Big John life-size replica for Big Box when

[clever wasp]

not random, at least not necessarily

it is a customary (and some would say heavily superfluous and overrated in some cases) practice to do what we call "encapsulation"

in short, you can only access the contents of a variable through a given function

best case scenario, it protects object specific stuff from inheritance shenanigans

worst case (and most frequent) scenario, it's a waste of CPU cycles

[delicate sail]

I see

I can actually follow that

Someone post that hackerman meme

[clever wasp]

you could make it return a random blurb from a list if you wished tho

[delicate sail]

So publicity blurb would be an object within the big box class? We should probably take this to general lol

If even continue...

[mild ginkgo]

this is good dusk talk

[clever wasp]

I can continue, but frankly we're getting closer to the proverbial rabbit hole at this point, so just for the sake of answering, it doesn't need to be an object, but it can be one

[delicate sail]

I see

[clever wasp]

either way, dusk

[delicate sail]

So I heard talk about a lifesized Big John figure for the big box? How's the progress on that?

[slate edge]

So um...this is the part where we talk about Doom instead. jk, but seriously, Dusk ep3 is looking really sweet.

[clever wasp]

thing is, it looks so sweet we're all having content starvation

hence why we drift off topic all the time

I run pacifist, draw your own conclusion

when I don't I fucking vaporise her tho

just because

[unkempt reef]

I faught her

should run though

[slate edge]

I kill mama on every playthrough.

[delicate sail]

Especially while keeping it spoiler free for those who haven't seen the PAX demo to make a blind run when Ep3 hits... I sometimes just snag it and blast her with rivets from the hallway leading ti the exit

But then again, I'm a chicken...

She's definitely one of the more challenging bosses so far

[vale oar]

wonder whether there are cowgirls in ep3

[delicate sail]

I'm still curious as to whether there's gonna be something special to do when finishing the campaign the first time, as there have been some comments potentially hinting at something

[vale oar]

yeeah

[delicate sail]

NG+ with an all flesh texture flip?

And an upped enemy count?

[vale oar]

upped enemy count?
THAT WOULD BE OOOH MAAAN

[jade root]

NG+ is us banning you

[delicate sail]

Oi

[jade root]

Io

[slate edge]

but what if jab got NG+ so jab no longer hostage of Lain and Daves memes?

[cedar roost]

i just found the sword, how can i block shots with it like in that trailer?

[jade root]

Hold rmb with i think 50+ morale

[slate edge]

is it implemented yet?

[jade root]

yeah lol

[cedar roost]

whats's morale for other than this?

[jade root]

armor

reduces all incoming damage by 1/2

[cedar roost]

ok

[cedar roost]

have you read the EULA?

[mild ginkgo]

😏

[delicate sail]

[jade root]

aaaaHHHH

my eyes

[vague egret]

Nerds will read a EULA but not a discord channel list.

World is truly fucked

[graceful wing]

nah this is on topic

[crimson folio]

thats the greatest Eula I have ever read

[jade root]

salty old men

[graceful wing]

glad you enjoyed it lol

[crimson folio]

thank you battle master for giving such great reads

[vale oar]

NG+ gives you E3MS2

fuck

Jab

I know that's YOU

[jade root]

look man

you gotta owe up to your stupid mistake

[vale oar]

...

[jade root]

making leon flip a tit over that

not cool

[vale oar]

ok nevermind x)

[graceful wing]

go watch cartoons, jab

[jade root]

no

[crimson folio]

I recommend Drifters

it is by the guy who made Hellsing

[delicate sail]

New Bojack season coming tomorrow. Dave seems to be hyped. Just sayin...

So DUSK, huh?

[mild ginkgo]

thats because dave is the gamedev version of bojack

like very much so

[delicate sail]

Yeah, his twitter posts seemed quite... existential...

[jade root]

show about dave tbh

[vale oar]

Dave pretends to be a good boi here, 'cause RULES

so he shitposts in Twitter

[clever wasp]

and whenever he appears on stream

[vale oar]

^

[fast wigeon]

i feel bad for the inevitable person who wont understand the episode system and ends up beating ep3 first when the game comes out

[crimson folio]

🤷

[delicate sail]

Consequently leaving a negative review on Steam

[fast wigeon]

and then dave posting it on twitter and everyone here assaulting his review

[jade root]

Then dave on steam "he's allowed to have an opinion guys"

[vale oar]

true

NO WITCH HUNTING

[fast wigeon]

in fairness the only time i can remember him doing it was with the "rebalance the ssg" guy

[delicate sail]

Haha.

[vale oar]

700 fps guy

[fast wigeon]

never heard of the 700 fps guy

[crimson folio]

never posted guys who say this rips off Quake ?

[fast wigeon]

have heard of the "ae has a placeholder soundtrack" guy tho

[jade root]

Hey if you play through dusk and don't like it, fine

[crimson folio]

or say I am offended because I am a redneck ?

[fast wigeon]

which i can see where that guys coming from

tbh

[jade root]

But if you got .2 hours and say "it suks lol" piss off

[crimson folio]

2 hours

[gaunt sierra]

That happens with a lot of games xD

[jade root]

No 0.2 hours

[crimson folio]

wasent it 30 minutes ?

oh

[fast wigeon]

even a few minutes can be enough for someone to decide

[gaunt sierra]

for example some Monster Hunter players with 90+ hours and negative review

😄

[fast wigeon]

maybe they immediately dont like the way the game feels to play

[jade root]

Monhun breaks people tho

That game is like a marriage

I mean I've been guilty of refunding within 10 minutes but I don't leave a negative review

[vale oar]

oh thx for the idea Jab, i'm gonna leave a negative one NOW

[jade root]

Just because it's not for me doesn't mean it's worth a neg review

[gaunt sierra]

well, there is a difference between a game that you don't like because it isn't for you and the game that is just objectively bad 😄

[fast wigeon]

"objectively"

Yikes!

[gaunt sierra]

I mean there is tons of stuff on steam, that have price tag like 20€+ and you can already tell in the first two minutes that the game is bad

not only it is not for you, but it's just bad

[fast wigeon]

i mean yeah but i dont think myself that there is such thing as 'objective' when it comes to media

i suppose things can be objectively low effort, but i wouldnt say anything can be objectively bad

[gaunt sierra]

That is true indeed

that is why when I am about to buy some game, I first read the thoughts of people and then watch gameplay videos and decide whether it is good or not

[fast wigeon]

then u can avoid games like dusk

[gaunt sierra]

if I look at reviews presented by media, they are hardly ever accurate, every triple A game gets 8+/10 immediately just because it is triple A

well, why would I avoid DUSK? reading through people's thoughts and seeing gameplay videos made me actually buy the game

and I am glad I did that 😄

[delicate sail]

It's a meme

[gaunt sierra]

ah, right

I just joined this group recently, dunno which memes are going around here 😄

[delicate sail]

Kinda waiting for Viscont to chime in 😁

[fast wigeon]

is there anyone whos active in this server that actually despises dusk

unironically

[vale oar]

In time, you will know ALL OF THEM.

[fast wigeon]

here, let me help you:

[gaunt sierra]

dunno why somebody would join here just to hate DUSK honestly 😄

[fast wigeon]

soap, big john, and cancelled memes are used almost everyday

especailly cancelled memes

[vale oar]

Yeah Dusk is cancelled

[delicate sail]

There we go

[gaunt sierra]

oh, so no "SOON tm" meme here?

[vale oar]

HAHAHAHAHA

🤣

[fast wigeon]

there is but issa dead meme

also it gives people ptsd because of the wait for ep3

[gaunt sierra]

xD that's right

but I mean, it's not as bad as waiting for the Xen in Black Mesa

[fast wigeon]

o shit yeah

[gaunt sierra]

that's way beyond DUSK's SOON

[vale oar]

o yeah

[fast wigeon]

btw ep3 is legitimately coming out soon now

[vale oar]

episode 3 is Xen but red

[fast wigeon]

its 100% confirmed coming out this year

if you look on pinned you can see the progress

[vale oar]

Yeah David himself informed us

[fast wigeon]

im honestly expecting halloween release date

[gaunt sierra]

well yeah, I heard something about 9/10 levels being completely done

[vale oar]

Do not forget we MAY get ep3 a bit earlier

Yeah David is currently working on final boss\polishing stuff

[vale oar]

lmao

soo naivee

[gaunt sierra]

well, yeah, YOU may get it, not me, I only just joined her, bet I cannot farm up my rank high enough to get early access 😄

[vale oar]

yeah Dude 😦

[fast wigeon]

ehh it depends

[delicate sail]

Isn't David still on holiday despite that hurricane evac hiccup?

[fast wigeon]

i think you could get soldier in time

but that might not be a high enough rank to get beta access

and no david is on his way home

[vale oar]

they gave Amid Evil beta access to Soldiers and all above ranks

so yeah

BIG JOHNS ONLY 😄

[delicate sail]

Ah shame. That guy deserves a full family vacation

[gaunt sierra]

something like that propably 😄

[fast wigeon]

na i reckon leatherneck

big john is like 8 people

thats not a very useful beta test

[vale oar]

sure, just kiddin

[gaunt sierra]

but still, at least I'll still have something to look forward to 😄

[fast wigeon]

yee

have u seen the pax gameplay of ep3

[delicate sail]

Honestly, I'd rather just waitr for the final 1.0. The last episode is just something I wanna experience as polished as possible

[fast wigeon]

ehhhhh

[gaunt sierra]

gameplay was great

[fast wigeon]

beta test tends to be very polished

[vale oar]

@delicate sail I don't think beta would be unpolished tbh

[fast wigeon]

just with one or two minor bugs

[gaunt sierra]

hope that big tornado there will lead up to some huge bossfight 😄

[fast wigeon]

probably yea

[delicate sail]

Yeah, I wouldn't assume anything else

[vale oar]

iirc it will lead us underneath the Cathedral

[delicate sail]

Just don't wanna spoil the experience

[gaunt sierra]

also, I was surprised by how many new enemies are in this new episode already

when I compare it to enemy count in episode 2

[delicate sail]

I think 6 are confirmed already

[gaunt sierra]

and also some new BFG-like gun if I heard correctly?

[delicate sail]

Yeah, but this is arguably not going to happen

[vale oar]

@gaunt sierra

1. The Horrors
   2 Cartdog
2. Priestess
3. Bone Monk
4. Bone Ball
   6 Chomper Spawn

[delicate sail]

The mods were pretty confident about it

[vale oar]

YEAH THE MODS

E3MS2

lmao

[delicate sail]

hahaha

[fast wigeon]

thats jab tho

it was 500pts who was saying no to the bfg and he doesnt bullshit

[gaunt sierra]

@vale oar yeah, that's a lot, maybe some boss from earlier episodes will come back as a regular enemy, like intoxigator 😄

[vale oar]

maybe

I guess that list is not even complete

[fast wigeon]

ehh i reckon theres gonna be just one new boss enemy

because in ep1 and ep2 a new enemy was revelaed in m5 of both

[delicate sail]

We already got that one dude

[fast wigeon]

non-boss enemy*

[delicate sail]

Oh, gotcha

[vale oar]

Big John's Possessed Pants as a boss please

[delicate sail]

Or his boots... or beard... goin full Monkey Island on our asses

[gaunt sierra]

😄

maybe Dave himself will be a boss

[fast wigeon]

id be really surprised if they did a shitpost boss this late

[gaunt sierra]

after all, he is always proclaiming himself as the leader of the cult xD

[vale oar]

Dave is the Cult Leader, I think he'll be pre-final boss, like Blood 2's Gideon

[fast wigeon]

o ye cult leader will prob be penultimate boss

[gaunt sierra]

yeah, and then some cthulhu-like creature will be the final boss

[fast wigeon]

since dave said the cult themselves have a larger enemy

although dave also said it so its probably bullshit

[delicate sail]

Maybe just a trolly secret, like no-clipping through the boss revealing David's severed head sprite

[vale oar]

the final boss is Roxy

😛

[fast wigeon]

mods were talkin about the final boss a few days ago i think

[gaunt sierra]

something like icon of the sin being secretly john romero? xD

[fast wigeon]

they said it wont be like an icon of sin repeat

[vale oar]

"To win da game u must buy Dusk, $20 only"

[delicate sail]

Yeah, I think Jab(?) said that it will definitely make people happy

[gaunt sierra]

I honestly hope for some two-staged final boss

[vale oar]

Well they said the ending was DOPE

[gaunt sierra]

since all bosses so far can be killed very quickly using riveter xD

[clever wasp]

there's a faster way

[vale oar]

yeah riveter is a bit OP thing, esp. in ep1

[fast wigeon]

also havent they hinted at post game stuff?

[vale oar]

they have

[delicate sail]

iirc yes
