ok, next question then

#

do you happen to have citrix workspace on your pc?

vapid inlet
#

Uhh

#

No, I don't

Lmaooo

#

ayo can we get a version of dusk with compressed sounds

calm delta
#

I'm never going to forget how badly Crypt of the Flesh (||the first half, at least||) scared the shit out of me the first time I went through it.

strong hamlet
#

that the dark lvl in e3 right?

eager leaf
#

the one ||you first meet the horrors (those guys with prolonged mouths that violently snap on death)||

strong hamlet
#

yeah

eager leaf
#

the ost on this level gave me the chills fr

strong hamlet
#

atmospheric lvls were really good on first playthrough

eager leaf
#

yeah that is the thing i liked the most in dusk

strong hamlet
#

They're not as fun to play through now, but were definitely worth including

Now that I think about it, outer gods seems to keep losing to retro fps protagonist

#

I guess we found a counter to those powerful eldritch gods

elder gods are weak to people who make noises when they jump

i mean ||does nyarlothep really "lose"||

well, if you want another example, there's Shub-Niggurath from Quake

Hey guys

#

anyone wanna join a deathmatch

calm delta
#

Even if the ending ||is a downer, I still can't help but grin hearing Stephan Weyte ham it up as Nyarlathotep||.

calm delta
#

Also, how the hell did I beat ||Jakob|| in one go?

vapid inlet
#

Wasn't too hard tbh. At first, I got scared seeing him zoom around the arena.

#

He doesnt deal that much dmg tho and it wasn't too hard to land few rockets and pipes.

#

Oh, and I was playing on I Can Take It

#

I want to beat the game for the third time, this time on Cero Mierdo (I think, excuse my poor Spanish skills, lmao)

hey is there anywhere that says what button on a the inputdebug readout from the controller support beta branch corresponds to in the ini file. might be missing something obvious but struggling to get it to work

guys stop responding to scott hes just tryna raise his server level

crimson folio
#

I can't believe how fuckin long it took me to realize the shotgun isn't a pump-action

cold bay
#

you mean to tell me that you thought it was a pump action at all?

white hearth
#

Or ramming Cthulhu with a steamboat

polar juniper
#

bruh what is homecoming

#

its so different with other levels

knotty tinsel
#

Homecoming is lore. Plus it shows how warped things have gotten

polar juniper
#

it must've been a pain to make sure players dont get stuck

knotty tinsel
#

I have gotten stuck falling before. Couldn't make it back to the land

white hearth
#

I got stuck in a room on that map but I could rocket jump out

mild ginkgo
#

yeah we missed one softlock

#

you can actually make it back if you are falling, it just takes a long time

#

but there is one way to rotate and jump that will softlock you

#

we could fix it, but like you mentioned, there are ways out

i just finished dusk

#

what the fuck happened

knotty tinsel
#

You were worthy

polar juniper
amber sparrow
#

they're funnay

polar juniper
#

they do be pogging

#

will there be a sequel or anything?

knotty tinsel
#

Maybe. Effort is going into the devkit so there will be more modding

polar juniper
#

right

amber bluff
polar juniper
#

who exacly was jakey?

#

better question

#

what was the game about

knotty tinsel
#

The guy talking to you a bunch. Hops around a lot and was worthy

polar juniper
#

i know but what who was he

knotty tinsel
#

|| cult leader who found the madness crystals (from nyarl) and began to exploit them ||

polar juniper
#

thank you

#

sorry for asking to much question but what use did madness crystals have

knotty tinsel
#

It's fine, this is the place to ask stuff. In game they make enemies fight. In lore it was basically ||bits of nyals power that they used to do all that weird science and infernal machine stuff||

polar juniper
#

thanks

spice ether
#

Crypt of flesh made me watch playthru because I was too scared

#

I mean I still finished the level but damn

amber bluff
#

how is it possible that some fucking lizard with a grenade launcher is stronger than a literal god

eager leaf
# polar juniper god i hate those i really HATE them

i personally kinda feel sorry for them ||since Jakob gave hints that probably those guys were the ones tryna deal with the cult but were unsuccessful (The closer they got, the more they suffered as Jakob said)||

amber bluff
#

i thought its the military/scientists who got closer than the possessed dudes

#

to cracking the funky crystal magic

knotty tinsel
#

I think the mil were trying to deal with the situation in the town and got wrecked. Hence why BJ is asking to be killed. It's what's left of his self.

olive cloud
#

BJ is depressed confirmed

amber bluff
#

oh yea right i was looking at wikipedia lore which is fake

obtuse garnet
#

Any news regarding Dusk switch release? Going play through Dusk when I get some days off from work.

olive cloud
#

its being worked on

obtuse garnet
#

@olive cloud Does Dusk have Co-op campaign on PC yet or is it still a work in progress just curious?

fallow mesa
#

It'll come after the SDK's finished

obtuse garnet
#

SDK's is for mod support right? I really enjoy all the support going into the retro FPS genre. I recently started building doom wads. It's fun learning a little bit at a time.

fallow mesa
#

Yeah

crimson folio
#

broo

#

I wish there were a European vendor for newblood merch

#

I really want a dusk shirt but it’d cost me like 50$

burnt glacier
#

what

#

$50 is a lot of freedom money for a tshirt

supple lily
#

was intoxigator created before or after the creation of the cult

#

that just seems like something florida man did and jakob adopted it

olive cloud
#

who cares. GIANT CROC. Very dangerous if you shoot jakob mad. But i can deffenitelly tell that the cult might be older since ||you do battle the son of intoxigator in ep2 and he grew up a lot since ep1 so maybe the intoxigator grew up really fast. || (episode 2 spoiler)

supple lily
#

maybe

#

but also we have no point of reference for how much time goes by between episodes

#

episode 1-2 has duskdude walking for some amount of time

#

and episode 2-3 could've been ||some sort of Nova Prospekt time jump portal, and episode 3 is weird enough that any amount of time fuckery is possible||

amber bluff
#

||"episode 3 is weird enough that any amount of time fuckery is possible" not to mention the escher labs||

supple lily
#

oh yeah that too

#

||is escher labs supposed to be nyarlathotep energy making the level go wunk or is it supposed to be a huge network of weird changing machines and rooms like that one level in dishonored 2||

amber bluff
#

crazy dave thought the level was boring

#

or david, i dont remember

#

why did i spoiler tag that

supple lily
#

idk

#

i will admit on repeat playthroughs the level isn't so fun after you know the gimick

#

the only part that is consistently cool is ||teleporting into that one horrible nightmare ribcage||

amber bluff
#

100% agreed

#

same with all the spooky levels

#

after you get used to them its just

#

eh

supple lily
#

e2m2 is still good but yeah e3m4 doesn't hold after the first time

amber bluff
#

what was e2m2 again

supple lily
#

the unseen

amber bluff
#

ah fuck i dont remember that

supple lily
#

||(wendigo)||

amber bluff
#

oh god

#

i remember that

#

and yeah it loses a lot of its fun factor

supple lily
#

i wouldn't say that, e2m2 is just a good level after you're introduced to the spook

#

e3m4 is cripplingly horrifying the first time but after that the whole level is just fine

amber bluff
#

e2m2 isnt really my favourite

#

i dont like wendigos so that might be it

supple lily
#

maybe

amber bluff
#

bad memories :(

supple lily
#

just use pistol/machine gun to turn them visible and then super shotgun

amber bluff
#

my headphones broke so i dont have their audio cues

#

just their footprints

supple lily
#

oh

#

also i think your flashlight flickers if one of them sees you

#

that helps kinda

amber bluff
#

yeah i realised that on my 2nd playthrough :(

supple lily
#

dang

amber bluff
#

im not very perceptive

supple lily
#

if you don't have audio cues yeah i could see that being a nightmare

amber bluff
#

a duskmare

supple lily
#

the worst level for me is probably e3m8 just because cowgirls in open spaces

amber bluff
#

god i hate cowgirls

#

why are they so damn strong

#

they take like 5 rivets

#

on cm

supple lily
#

5 rivets on all difficulties

#

difficulty doesn't change enemy health

#

which i like a lot

#

just enemy projectile/movement speed and the damage they do

#

i'm pretty sure it doesn't change anything else

amber bluff
#

ooh neat

pulsar nova
#

yeah i dont even think difficulty changes enemy spawns

supple lily
#

yeah

#

so someone playing on cero miedo and accessible will still be playing the exact same game just cero miedo has to know how to bhop

amber bluff
#

hardest part of the game

#

jerma would agree

#

he literally gets a stroke when he jumps

supple lily
#

hardest part of the game is probably that one room in neobabel

#

with the fast fire and the switch to open the yellow key room

amber bluff
#

what about E3M9

supple lily
#

that's my least favorite

#

the neobabel room is the hardest

#

also e3m9 i could see being utter hell if you don't know how to bhop

amber bluff
#

oh wait

#

E3M10 is Dusk

#

E3M9 is the ||test||

#

right

supple lily
#

the arena one

amber bluff
#

yeah

supple lily
#

yeah

amber bluff
#

i meant that

#

i dont remember the damn level placement

supple lily
#

there is the one secret but if it's a first playthrough and you don't know how to bhop it's probably not a fun level

#

if you do know how to bhop it's great

amber bluff
#

r a t t o

supple lily
#

yes

amber bluff
#

wait wait

supple lily
#

what?

amber bluff
#

"if it's a first playthrough and you don't know how to bhop"

#

when did you learn how to bhop??

supple lily
#

i knew about it before i got the game

amber bluff
#

oh okay

#

i thought you learned how to do it on your 2nd playthrough lmao

supple lily
#

i have over 3k hours in gmod and it's WAY easier in dusk soo

amber bluff
#

the latest i've seen so far was on E3M6 and it was jerma

#

i dont think he knew the game has bhopping

supple lily
#

i'm mentioning it because my sister is going through dusk for the first time and she doesn't know how to do it at all

amber bluff
#

w HAT

#

tell her?

supple lily
#

no it's funny

amber bluff
#

i learned about it in E1M2

#

ah fair enough

supple lily
#

yeah that's the main one

I'd never thought of || the horrors as corrupted humans trying to harass the crystals, but I like that theory. I had always assumed they were the corrupted and disfigured remnants of the people that built the nameless city, and nyarlathotep had destroyed their civilization when they outlived their usefulness, inviting in the military to take their place, and then the military eventually was forced out by the cult. But I like your theory a lot more honestly, fits with the in game lore a lot better. It does beg the question of who built the nameless city though. Maybe the priestesses? ||

amber bluff
#

||corrupted humans trying to harass the crystals||

#

bullying

#

that's why they're corrupted

desert furnace

dusk more like

calm delta
pulsar nova
#

god dusk would be impossible if enemies lead their shots

vapid inlet
#

Yeah

#

But I really love how no enemy uses hitscan weapons

#

Well, aside from melee attacks but you get the point

pulsar nova
#

yeah, and on top of that you can deflect everything

#

i wish duskworld were the same

crimson folio
#

deflect?

pulsar nova
#

yeah

#

just melee a bullet and it turns around

crimson folio
#

i bought the game only today so i didnt know u can do that lol

polar juniper
#

i swear to god bone monks say omadam it mean im coming in persian

#

i can hear it so clearly

vapid inlet
#

You mean, like in a sexual way?

polar juniper
#

no

vapid inlet
#

Personally, the sound they make reminds me of pagan, cannibalistic shamans

#

Just a thought

polar juniper
#

i have no idea what sound pagans make

vapid inlet
#

Well

#

Uhm

#

Should've said heathens

#

I have this general idea, mostly from horror movies

polar juniper
#

im not really big into horror

iron pond
vapid inlet
#

I really like horrors

#

Especially the ones that screw with your mind

vivid magnet
#

Don’t the bone monks speak Latin or something like that?

amber sparrow
#

the one line they have is probably gibberish

vivid magnet
#

I thought in the dev commentary stream they said it was unused lines from the 2013 order of the triad game.

#

But it could very well still be gibberish

amber sparrow
#

yeah

Brutal Dusk when Civvie?

shy stag
#

my getting all completionist award in every level run is pretty good so far, only problem for now is e3m9

#

it's actually possible to get the "True 100%" achievement guys

calm spruce
#

Dare to dream

shy stag
#

fair enough

#

i want achievements in ultrakill i already discovered it up side down i'll probably get them allwhitehell

#

i want do some stupid shit wich will be a huge waste of my time

upbeat pecan
#

Nice, basically there if it's just E3m9 left.

crimson folio
#

I have the 100%

#

still got 2 achievements left tho

#

but fuck wave 20 endless and the soaps

upbeat pecan
#

I still haven't done the soap achievement lol.

shy stag
#

soap achievement i kinda fucked

strong hamlet
#

Only achievements I've got left is the telefrag one and the soap one

#

Problem with soap is that I only need around 3 more lvls, but have no idea which ones

#

Probably just gonna do a quick run through the campaign to get it

shy stag
#

imagine giving the game 4 playthroughs not because you love it and because of the achievements

upbeat pecan
#

I've lost count how many times I've played it

#

And still too lazy to do soap achievement

cold bay
#

look gary

#

Doubloons don't drop them

crimson folio
#

lol

#

I tried to play blood today

#

I hate it

#

like

#

the game is good but who's fucking idea was it to make hitscanners that deal like 30 damage per shot even on the easier difficulties

cold bay
#

the devs

spare cobalt
#

Blood is great

#

best game made on Build

spare wedge
#

listened to Departure to Destruction for the first time today

#

and goddamn

#

its fucking top of the line

vapid inlet
#

Oh, so this is the song they used for the trailer

#

Yup, top of the line indeed

#

I wonder if he used actual double bass or just synced a single kick twice

crimson folio
#

I used to like that one the most

#

burn in hell and crypted chaos tho

#

much better imo

#

keepers of the gate is fucking sick too

#

@spare cobalt looks awesome and the game itself is great but the enemy design is shit

spare cobalt
#

nah you gotta git gud

crimson folio
#

bad enemy design

#

!

#

getting 30 damage instantly when walking around a wall isn't even remotely fair

#

duskmare intruder mode is easier

#

not even exaggerating

spare cobalt
#

dusk is an easy game tho

#

with blood the thing is that you cant really play it like dusk

#

you have to expect there is death behind every corner

#

main reason why I like blood as much as I do (excluding the cool setting) is that it's so hard

upbeat pecan
crimson folio
#

Sure but the difficulties are not balanced whatsoever

#

medium should be accessible to most people

#

That’s what medium means

#

Lol

upbeat pecan
#

Lol yea.

white hearth
#

Blood is way harder in the first few levels due to be a lack of weapons/pickups

#

Stick with it and it eases up pretty quickly

#

But yeah, you're not going to have a good time if you try to play it like Dusk

vapid inlet
#

Honestly, Blood seems like the most fun out of the trinity of the build games

#

That shotgun is epic

white hearth
#

Yeah, it's peak Build Engine

#

Much more believable environments than Shadow Warrior or Duke 3D too IMO

crimson folio
#

I’ve tried liking the game three times now

#

I’m not too fond of dying after every turn I make as soon as I see a cultist

stuck ember
#

I just like Dusk

cold bay
#

Understandable have a nice day

crimson folio
#

first time was on well done then i change to lightly broiled I think

#

yeah no wonder

#

is that the equivalent to hard?

#

ofc lol

#

I'm guessing so

#

lol

#

yeah maybe I should start on medium

#

perhaps I'll buy it AGAIN for the 4th time

#

steam support must be confused over the fact that I've bought and refunded this game 3 times so far

white hearth
#

Lightly broiled is 'medium' but it's more like most games hard

crimson folio
#

it's more like nightmare

#

i played on lighly broiled

#

and its pretty ok

#

not so hard

#

duskmare is easier

#

nightmare doom eternal is easier

#

same for quake 1

#

mhm

white hearth
#

The difficulty is just front loaded, I played EP1 on Lightly Broiled and switched to Well Done for the others

crimson folio
#

yea idk

#

I'm just really impatient with games because I want them to be fun and not kick your ass for walking around a corner lol

#

blood is not for you then

#

because it doesn't give the "oh shit I did something wrong" feeling it gives you a "okay I'm just gonna spam dynamites fuck these hitscanners" response

#

i mean

#

just keep playing

#

and you will eventually get used to it

crimson folio
#

but I don't want to like, make myself like something

#

kinda defeats the point of playing a game imo

white hearth
#

I mean you don't have to like it, it definitely doesn't play like what most people think of as a retro FPS

#

If frustrating hitscanners are a deal breaker for you no one will judge you for skipping it

spare cobalt
#

I will kekw

crimson folio
shy stag
#

maybe after one of the skulls hit another boneball they are infighting we just don't see it

i lost 55 hp anyway

upbeat pecan

Bone balls are pretty good at damaging each other

I don't really know if they infight or just spam skulls everywhere

amber sparrow
#

Gamepedia sucks dick

#

Literally no fucking notification as to what happened or what I can do

#

Fucking thanks to whoever is responsible

#

I also haven't looked at recent changes for a while, and guess what, there's literally no option to view a sum-up of wiki history older than 30 days

Which year does Dusk take place in?

pulsar nova
#

sometime in the 1980s or 90s for sure

#

it is intentionally not specified afaik

olive cloud
#

90s

#

there are pcs where you can play dusk in game

#

so 92-96 probably

amber bluff
#

dusk wasnt out in the 90's smh

crimson folio
#

Do you need steam to run dusk? Would be interesting to see if steam could run on Windows 98

pulsar nova
#

dunno, dusk uses unity

vague egret
#

Dusk has no DRM so you're welcome to try

pulsar nova
#

unsure how good unity’s legacy support is

crimson folio
#

Hmmmmmmmm

#

Time to find a VM to see if this could work

vague egret
#

Trick is finding a win 98 compatible GPU that can run it

pulsar nova
#

and i imagine hard drive and memory could be an issue

#

the game’s by no means huge but iirc it is considerably larger than real 90s games

crimson folio
#

"OS: Win 7 or Later"

#

Okay so you'd need a boomer Compooter that could also run Windows 7

#

Windows 7 came out in October 2009 (holy shit)

#

yeah I'm 99% sure Dusk couldn't run on a boomer pc, no matter how cool it would be to boot it up using DOS commands

pulsar nova
#

source porting dusk to quake 1 engine

#

Did the switch port get canceled

#

:/

olive cloud
ocean burrow
#

does dusk even save

#

it wont let me get to where i last was

#

the load game doesnt work either

#

does the game even save your progress

jade root
#

yes

#

it has both auto saves and manual saves

#

wdym it wont let you load

eternal sky
#

I think Dusk does like a temp save on the start of each level but it goes away when you leave

crimson folio
#

@amber bluff noone said it was out in the 90’s

ocean burrow
#

MY SAVE RESET

#

I HAVE TO RESTART THE WHOLE GAME

#

how do i get back to where i was

#

is there a way to get to the level i was on

burnt glacier
#

shoot things until you get there

ocean burrow
#

i was far into the game

#

im not restarting the whole thing

burnt glacier
#

then shoot a lot of things

crimson folio
#

It's not that long of a game tho

#

And each episode is broken up

ocean burrow
#

no point in the game if when i literally just stop playing the game everything resets

burnt glacier
#

there is chapter and level select

ocean burrow
#

yes but i was on a part of one of the episodes

#

i had the crossbow

#

already

burnt glacier
#

isn't playing the fun part?

ocean burrow
#

not when you reset all your progress

burnt glacier
#

why? doing it for the first time was so horrible?

#

why play at all then

#

if the game is fun, then playing it again should be cool

ocean burrow
#

no its not fun because i was into the game now i have to restart it all

#

the fun part is progressing not restarting

burnt glacier
#

oohh, I thought it is actually playing it, you know, jumping around and shooting cultists

ocean burrow
#

that is fun

#

but i want to fight the higher enemies

#

with the stronger guns

#

instead of one shotgun and nothing but chainsawmen and cultists and goats

burnt glacier
#

it's not what you are saying, you make it sound like watching level counter increase is more important than actual gameplay

#

if you want to fight higher level enemies then select chapter 3

ocean burrow
#

no because i want to get off back on where i was

#

not on the last episode

burnt glacier
#

then replay it until you get there

#

that's the good part, right?

ocean burrow
#

no

#

i like playing the game

upbeat pecan
#

Can't you just pull up the level select screen and start from there?

ocean burrow
#

when i am cought up on where i am

#

its like how you wouldnt just skip 13 episodes of a show

burnt glacier
#

so what is more important, level number or actually playing it?

ocean burrow
#

you were really into

upbeat pecan
#

At worst you should just have to restart an individual level

burnt glacier
#

yeah

ocean burrow
#

i have to restart everything

#

i dont want to play the same thing again

#

its not fun playing the same thing again

burnt glacier
#

why not? don't like the game?

ocean burrow
#

and again

#

i like the game

#

how do you not understand

burnt glacier
#

if you like something, then it shouldn't be a problem doing it, right?

native cargo
#

i am working through my first playthrough and having so much fun

ocean burrow
#

i dont like it when i have to play the same thing over and over

native cargo
#

i found out you can throw brick-like items at a lot of enemies to do tons of damage

#

and then i found this potion that slows down time

just like how you wouldnt listen to the same song 1000 times or how you wouldnt watch the same episode of a show 100 times

native cargo
#

and you can prolong it by stutter-stepping

native cargo
#

so you can go through almost an entire level hitting everyone with a brick and immediately recatching it

ocean burrow
burnt glacier
#

yeah, eventually

#

but not on second try

ocean burrow
#

i dont like playing the same thing again

native cargo
#

the viscera still floats so you end up with rooms full of gore that hasn't hit the ground yet

#

that made me so happy

ocean burrow
#

i bought the game so i can play it and progress

upbeat pecan
#

@ocean burrow you should just be able to go to level select, choose a loadout you want from the upper right menu and start at the beginning of your furthest completed episode even if you borked your saves

anyone down for some DUSKWORLD?

#

@ocean burrow I mean restarting a level isn't so bad. You can get back to where you were in under 5 minutes probably. You could likely already be there by now lol

#

I thought you were saying you had to restart the entire game

ocean burrow
#

i do

#

i do have to restart the entire game

burnt glacier
# ocean burrow you are not helping

I am trying really hard to help by showing you that replaying things is actually ok if you actually like the game, it is definitely better than being salty about lost progress

ocean burrow
#

I DONT LIKE RESTARTING AN ENTIRE GAME

upbeat pecan
#

Its erasing your progress even at the level select screen?

burnt glacier
#

how far did you get to?

ocean burrow
#

everything

#

restarted

burnt glacier
#

even cloud save got deleted?

#

you tried to sync it?

ocean burrow
#

i think i got to like E1M8

upbeat pecan
#

Are you starting from selecting campaign? or level select

ocean burrow
#

choosing either one does the same thing

burnt glacier
#

what about cloud save?

ocean burrow
#

it just shows me either The Foothills, The Facilities, or The Nameless City

ocean burrow
burnt glacier
#

PC has nothing to do with it

#

do you have it from Steam or GOG?

ocean burrow
#

steam

burnt glacier
#

then it is on Steam Cloud

upbeat pecan
#

did you click on foothills then?

ocean burrow
#

yes

#

i clicked on foothills

upbeat pecan
#

and then it should bring up the map and if you played to e1m8 it was erased?

ocean burrow
#

what map

burnt glacier
#

do verify local files from Steam and it should download saves from cloud

#

unless you disabled it

ocean burrow
#

it just sent me to the first level

#

sent me to E1M1

burnt glacier
#

and verifying files doesn't do anything?

burnt glacier
#

right click on game name, Properties, Local Files, Verify integrity

#

and in Properties you can also check if cloud save is enabled

#

Properties > General > Steam Cloud

#

"Keep games saves in Steam Cloud for DUSK" should be checked

ocean burrow
#

ok giga helped me

burnt glacier

or download it directly from steam

ok, cool

Hoping that Dusk modding explodes, because I freaking love Dusk and I just want more to play

#

Played some of the modded maps already, and they're pretty good so far.

autumn pendant

#

My only concern is that we’ve peaked early. There’s already a mod that replaces all the textures with beans, and I don’t know how we can do any better.

tardy slate

by that they actually mean "the tools are all external, you can just replace stuff and add maps"

not that it's a bad thing or anything

Nah, save scumming is for chumps

Luckily, I am a chump

crimson folio

good talk thanks every1

upbeat pecan
#

Duskmare is always annoying because it throws the intended enemy design out the window. I would have rather seen them do something like dooms ultra nightmare and just add perma death CM if they didn't wanna scale something higher than cm

heady halo
#

I assume eventually we could mod in difficulties

upbeat pecan
#

Probably, even if we can't CM feels really nice and has a lot you can do with it level to level. Even a few custom levels can make it extremely punishing with limited recovery items.

CM + Intruder Mode + no quick saves is challenge enough for me

I've got two questions for you DUSKers:

  1. what makes a computer worthy running DUSK? I'm using a DELL Inspiron 15 netbook. Can it run this game?
  2. What do you think of DOOsk? A doom mod that recreates the DUSK experience
jade root
#
  1. I can’t vouch for your pc but we do have a low spec mode for lower end systems
#
  1. DOOsk is aight, wish it had better comparability and didn’t need its own setup to use correctly, but it’s fun
solemn egret
#

thx for your feedback. I tested my PC using System Requirements Lab website. What seems to be holding me back according to the test is the lack of dedicated videocard in my rig

#

aside from that I still can experience some of the DUSK's fun thanks to that mod

#

although, from what I've noticed, the dusk monsters make many maps WAY too difficult IMO

jade root
#

Yeah dusk is more GPU based

solemn egret
#

I might consider upgrading PC/buying a gaming PC for such games. What would you recommend?

#

oh and BTW, I wouldn't mind playing Doom Eternal on that rig

If you have the technical know-how, I recommend building your own pc

If you are lazy like me however

But dusk is definitely where to start

Half life is pretty good

Doom 2 is good but it can get kinda boring

I didn't say they were bad.

Oh stop talking about fossils like half life

especially with some really good WADs

Just that Dusk set the bar really high for me.

Dusk’s movement is amazing

burnt glacier
calm delta
#

Wrath and Prodeus are solid but both are unfinished at the moment and Prodeus has a very weird checkpoint system that I don't like at all.

obtuse prairie
#

I think the reason why dusk was received better than other throwback games at the time is because it actually attempts to fix the problems and/or do something original while still fitting the style of the old games

burnt glacier
#

Wrath has weird save system

crimson folio
#

Ion fury lags a lot for me

burnt glacier
#

really?

#

weird

crimson folio
#

Yeah

#

Not in the beginning

#

But after the first boss fight, yeah

calm delta
#

But that's just me.

burnt glacier
#

I prefer regular save system

crimson folio
#

I haven’t played prodeos or wrath yet

#

Honestly I don’t think I’ll ever play prodeos

burnt glacier
#

if you want to look for some retro fps, you can literally check them out by which engine you prefer

crimson folio
#

Kinda unrelated but I think dusk and dusk modding should combine

obtuse prairie
#

nah, I think it's better to have modding channels separate from the actual game channels themselves

burnt glacier
#

yeah

crimson folio
#

I guess it depends how much both channels get used

spare cobalt
#

wrath 😔

crimson folio
#

And I barely check out either so I wouldn’t know

spare cobalt
#

its ok if you like it I just find it bland and boring

#

looking forward to Graven tho based on the demo. was a bit more interesting to me

burnt glacier
#

check HROT

#

plenty of people here already played it

spare cobalt
#

Hrot feels really good

#

havent finished the EA chapter yet but really liking it

pulsar nova
#

i think i prefer wrath in its current state over dusk honestly

#

storytelling obviously isn’t as good but actual gameplay is super solid

spare cobalt
#

enemy AI was pretty bad last I tried

#

level design in my opinion aint good either

#

looks ok tho

pulsar nova
#

i liked the level design

#

it has some weird rule about locking down the play area when an executioner spawns and idk how i feel about that

#

otherwise i think it’s pretty solid so far

the priory is great
