David is Jakob so he’d know
Homecoming is legit one of my favorite "emotional" video game moments
It's very subtle and doesn't interrupt the gameplay but a lot is implied
I can never fully enjoy it cause it gives me a headache
The next level tho (I can’t remember the name) is a master class in level design
The one where you kill every enemy in the game?
I don’t get the timeline of how the creatures were created. Some seem like spirits or residents of the nameless city in the mythos but they are also implied to have been created by the military?
Brimstone or dwellers in the dark?
As above so below
aight thats what i thought
It’s cool tho
isnt there gonna be a full version with the sdk

I have no idea
It’s 24 pages and it only covers the first two episodes
In addition, Jakob foreshadows a lot more
There’s a dubbed version of it on YouTube
My only real gripe is that in some scenes the art style makes it hard to understand what’s happening
Because of the monochrome
Yeah sometimes I really had to squint to see
Yeah I agree it's kind of painful to look at sometimes, but it is an enjoyable pain
there will be a full version yes
W’S BOYS
its been in progress a long time
Id pick up a physical copy in a heartbeat
same
Same
we'll see, for now we just want to complete it
Teased 
yeah understandable
Understandable
It’s coming out soon trademark (am I doing this right)
you guys have been doing things for dusk for like 5 years at this point lmao
and theres still a lot coming
Nyarlathotep saying the “other forms” line is ironic considering that the photophobic form is the only combat oriented one in the mythos.
“Watch our player, next time you’re gonna see me I’ll be a cyberpunk scarecrow pharaoh!”
Game was a big part of the boomer shooter revival. I’d would definitely add more.
yeah dusk nearly singlehandedly revived the genre
afaik they're also working on ng+ with nargle powers
lmao
And the dark claw weapon from the alpha version
Ooh I haven’t seen that? Any images?
sdk, possible updates to console ports, revamped duskworld, the comic
theres a lot coming
AKA “Dusk Dude checks if Friendly Fire is on”
duskworld updates
lets hope
I started playing yesterday and now I feel like a kid in a candy store
its probably low on their priorities
but its possible
i just want duskworld on switch 
which is even lower on the priorities i assume
My idea would be that you fight a part of the cult that is still faithful to Jakob and is trying to resurrect him or something
That reminds me of the life leech from blood
neat idea
A part of the cult became too mainstream and started praying to Cthulhu
Totally not an idea from Deathwish for Blood
oooh
They start praying to quake milf god black goat
but they have to do my idea of a real time strategy game where you play as nyarthalotep commanding the cultists smh
trillion dollar idea
Keep in mind that the Switch has a completely different build. Meaning if they wanted add Dusk world and HD models and other things they’d have to work on a different build of the game.
My idea would be something along the lines of Nyarlathotep just deciding the trick got old. The first time he is introduced in the mythos, he wants to modernize the world. And the rednecks of Dusk, Pennsylvania are pretty much the opposite of that. Out with the old!
The FPS genre used to be called DOOM clones plagiarism is okay
nyarlathotep but sims city
If you read a dictionary you’ll never read something completely original again.
Then why not plagiarize yourself some BITCHES
gottem there
I’m trying bro 😭
- Second Big John
because reminder, Dusk Dude blew up the first one right before he got hooked
Bigger John
I wonder if there's multiple Big John or they just resurrected him
I don’t really see how they could resurrect an unwilling someone.
If they can even resurrect a willing one
big john is cursed with immortality
Big John is an avatar of Nodens
The wee johns combine like the power rangers
biggest john
"COME ON, IM HERE! DO IT NOW! YAH HAHAHAHA" cries of help
so if david is jakob... and dave is big john... then whose the littleneck?!?!?!!??!
Also Dave
Your mom
Manlet
its all coming together
The first big John can only be killed by the shotgun, the crossbow and the riveter in that order. If only he wasn’t color coded, he would be impossible to slay.
Googling how tall is Dave Oshry
5’ 4’’
lain
you have a point
Hope the lil guy’s doing okay
see
I just realized I don’t have a sense for Dusk Dude’s moral compass because literally everything in the game attempts to murder you and is axe crazy
you know
like redneck america
I live in the south and can confirm it is like that
no wonder they so mad... they in penisvaliyna 🤣
yeahs
Imagine how much worse Dusk would be if it was set in like Alabama or Texas
DUSK would be so different if it was in canada
I love Dusk I wish Pennsylvania was real.
i dont wish it was real
We willed Pennsylvania into existence through our collective unconscious
Don’t mess with us Dusk fans. We created a state
Dusk would be infinitely more scary if it took place in new mexico
Better Phone John
i unironically want a boomer shooter type game set in new mexico, like hrot but for the deserts of america
today, I purchase dusk
WOOOO YEAH BABY THATS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR
i dont know who you are
but good job

just buying a bunch of fps so if I'm ever bored I can pick one of them up and play
I also bought project warlock
aaaaaand I'm getting fallen aces
there we go
you should also try gloomwood 
instead, I am going to buy kyle is famous, because that's enough fps games
and now I play dusk
I also just started playing tonight. Feels like I'm playing a hillbilly version of Doom and I love it.
I’m gonna buy dusk !!!
hope you enjoy it
it gets better
Not my fault im always correct
Oi oi fellas, chill
All episodes are fokin amazing
But ofc the Ep 3 is the best :p
"The first bullet fired from the Assault Rifle will always be perfectly accurate, allowing it to efficiently snipe at long range."
so should you just spam click then instead of holding
Ep 2 is the best start wise and Ep 3 is the best ending wise
episode 3 goes hard
You can slowly tap away and have precise shots
Its useful for the erebus reactor mainly if you want the untouchable award
Mostly against tier 1 enemies
Dusk sequel should be called dawn let Sam Raimi direct it and Jared Leto star as the game protagonist watch the steam sales explode
The sequel should be called “Dusktil Dawn”
I still haven't gotten around to beating it. I think I'm at the final act.
act
DUSK Chapter 3: The Nameless City
Dusk Scene 1: the foothills
Dusk Section 2: big john
I've been playing too much ultrakill
in ultrakill it's called acts
I apologize for my insolence
I finished it and really liked it, but there are still some bugs here and there, is there an email or something to report them?
you can report them in the forum, or here
happy to field your reports personally @grizzled nimbus
Thanks, I start with the strangest thing, I might be wrong, but I noticed that some times it seems that the "gravity" increases, in the sense that the character doesn't jump as high as before and also the jump platforms don't allow high jumps anymore. I noticed this because in one level I could no longer move forward, then I restarted the game and the problem was gone. Maybe it occurs when you load a save many times.
Then there is a level where every time I load a save, I start from crouching, tonight I check the number.
The saves in E3M7 are broken from the moment you change the axes of the world, loading the save puts you in a totally different place.
Then there are some Italian translation errors or oversights, but I can take screenshots later to be more specific.
I think the game font is without the accented letters, so in some places they have been replaced with another font, but in at least one case they are missing completely.
Lastly, the GOG version is missing an achievement, "Frag your Friends - Open Duskworld," but I don't understand why, because in theory there is Duskworld on GOG as well. Would it be possible to add it?
the e3m7 save is intentional, the crouching level is e3m1, and the gravity bug is extremely rare to happen
its a result of an error with floating point precision
these things have all been fixed on the switch version lol
Ok, recently bought dusk after playing the shit out of ultrakill, why is every game new blood has just so fucking good, haven't beaten it yet tho, i'm in...neobabel? i believe, people tell me chapter 3 is the best tho
Damn Nintendo, do you know if they will also be fixed on PC? Although they aren't critical bugs fortunately. And do you know if the lack of the achievement is intentional and what is the reason?
the lack of achievement was just a choice we made so that players would not have to use duskworld if they didnt want to
they will probably be fixed on pc yes
Am I wrong or on Steam the achievement is obtained by simply clicking the Duskworld icon? In that case it wouldn't force anyone to actually use it. It just bothers me that the game is stuck at 29 achievements instead of the round 30 😆
30th should be for playing a custom map
I see, for what it's worth, I vote to reintroduce it on GOG as well if you ever reconsider. 👍
make sure to play every single custom map in one sitting once you beat the game too
Thank you very much! 😃
Why in one sitting? XD
because they're good
because vriska has bsp brain damage~
h
Ahah
I did a melee-only run on the highest difficulty to complete all the respective medals of the main game. I'm still missing some pacifist medals but I'm working on it
enjoy the brimstone ghetto pacifist one
😆
how do i climb again 
Shift
install SDK & play the custom levels
im gonna go for 100% achievements first i think
dont forget about duskworld :)
any you'd particularly recommend so i can note them down?
yeah definitely gonna try it out lol
all of skade's maps
those r really good as starters i dont think they'll lag
except for skades
👍
Beware of saving in any custom map if you do play
most people did
does it make my house explode
Better to turn down the difficulty and play in one sitting
P much
But it just causes wonky things
all the broken func_doors will haunt you for the rest of your days
The most annoying imo is if a map uses changing music it'll just reset to the first track that was playing
And keep that on
genuinely cant believe how good the game is tho lmao. i'd been looking at it for a long time and constantly hearing great things but i kinda fell off shooters for a while and ultrakill refreshed me so i picked up dusk on sale and holy shit
instantly one of my favourite games
I just beat episode 2 today!
nice! time for wacky
man dusk dude is so cool i wish beards were real
guess what we made them real
haha! if only.....
anyone know why I could be having this error?
am playing on an old 3rd gen XPS gaming laptop (M1710) for benchmark purposes, and it just won't launch on it's 1900x1200 screen
i will add it is only dx9 capable
do not know if this game needs dx11 or not
i actually atm will try forcing dx9, but if that does not work then any help is appreciated. gog version btw
yeah no forcing dx9 did not help. further assistance appreciated.
yeah it says on the steam page that dx9 is ok...ima see what resolutions dx9 supports one sec
i know dx9 supports 1920x1200
Yeah what i would do, and from what im reading, either update your graphics cards drivers, or uninstall and reinstall them.
And once you reinstall obvi update and all that shit
did that ^
hmmm
hmmm hmmmmm
have you tried playing the game on the rolled back drivers?
Kinda a shot in the dark
not an optimal one either
maybe one of the devs will know what file to modify, im sure there is some config file you could manually set the default resolution
haha it's a geforce go 7900gs, was high end in 2006 but the last driver released before dusk even released so i wouldn't see rolling back doing anything
lol yeah true true. might be time for an upgrade
Is there a demo for dusk?
i have a i7 and 1070ti lmao, am just testing it on this laptop for shits and giggles
no unfortunately
Oh
go get your phone and snap some pics of your feet, start an OF, profit, turn profits into new PC
i have a new pc lmao
but instructions unclear
sent ass pics
Wont profit
became #2 seller
"feetfordusk"
Maybe papa will be proud of me now 🥲
So will dusk get a sequel
no
Will dusk Dude say it’s duskin time in the sequels
nah, it's usual business for limited run
i'm so glad i didn't preorder dusk physical
hopefully the collector's edition will be entrusted to someone else
Jared Neato, in Duskibus.
“It’s time to Dusk!”
yes
you better stick true to your word
10 seconds after that flavor text shows up, the game uninstalls itself
Dusk’s pre final bossfight prologue but Nyarlathotep’s lines are replaced by
“We have read your curriculum and after having confirmed a few prior experiences and checking in on a recently opened high paying position, we think you would be perfect for our company.”
Nargle Inc.
No they're just memeing. Don't read into it lol
Dusk guy.🤝 V1
Hating things where you can't see their face
yez

shut up
let me live in fantasy
It's gonna be his only line in the whole sequel
So how is Dusk world's server hosting set up? You don't have to port forward your router to start a match, so is it just renting out space on NB servers?
free
but, as you might know, valve takes 30% of all sales
so thats how its paid for
Ah, ok
so, in what time of day i can find some players in multiplayer? hehe
holy, tysmmmm
Go to #903113855964680252 to find DuskWorld matches. Be sure to use @here when asking for games 👍
any idea when the HD update will be out?

When the SDK will be done
so never
🥲
The current sdk is an older build of dusk
Cool, thank you
older build, saves are broken, runs really poorly, some times stuff just turns black, loading custom maps takes really long
generally just in a state of disrepair
Try deleting the config file and starting up the game
It will generate a new one with default values
Cowgirls

Thats a lot of toadlickers

Good golly
The toad is probably his cousin
Dusk 2 lets you make soap out of enemies
The soap has the most polygons in the game
Have all the easter eggs in the game been discovered by now?
the American dream
unless david hid a secret easter egg deep inside one of the scripts that is literally just
// congration you found the easter eg
FUCK WRONG CHAT
talkin to someone about dusk
i click here to check a chat, remember dusk thing so i go to the channel called dusk instead of the dm
i am a FOOL
squirl
Don't worry, a long time ago back when the Quake remaster came out, I kept talking about quake in this channel and didn't realize until I looked at the channel name
nice
is it as good as i've been told
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/323652719875194882/992740656994852924/unknown.png damn my review of dusk is kinda popping off
3rd place
ok
ok
I mean it took me like a whole minute just to kill the first enemy
And i know after a bit the game gets cool and fast paced and stuff but the intro kinda bored me to death
I'll still play it eventually but currently the game shouldnt throw 15 enemies at me if it takes around 1 or more minutes to kill a single one
Thats just my opinion tho
Sounds like a skill issue to me to be fair
If you thow heavy objects at them they die instantly
Idk
real
maybe they missed the first two weapons?
i could reasonably see someone completing the entire first level missing every weapon
yeah but even if you're fighting with scythes only most enemies take 20-30 seconds at most to kill
Well if you're being abundantly safe, I could understand
bro literally just throw a gas can at them
I also love the Riveter, its The fastest rocket launcher ever
But i never saw a weapon quite like the Crossbow before
isn't directly modelled after the heretic crossbow
me neither but i know more about it than i really should
I think many weapons in Dusk in general stand out, but im trying to think of which one is the best of them all
Thats the real question
I apreciate it a bit, but i think its The one that shoots projectiles the slowest of them all
And since this game doesnt have Hitscanners like Blood or Duke Nukem 3D, you dont have to shoot bombs around covers to explode camping enemies
eeeehhhh
And i also see it as a Plan B after the Riveter runs out
generic shotgun, generic rifle, generic rocket launcher, sorry, how are they supposed to stand out again?
i tried this and the police started asking me why I was at walmart and why i would bring a metal barrel in let alone why i threw it at a kid
Because they’re good
the only stand out weapon in dusk is the soap
Ah true
No i got the secret pistol it still took me 1 minute 13 seconds
Maybe there was something wrong with my game
it took you one minute and 13 seconds to kill an enemy with a pistol?
Yes
that doesnt seem right
How slow are you shooting it
did you try to kill the enemy with the reload animation??
I emptied the whole round and it didnt die so i finished it off with scythe
Maybe my game glitched or smthn ifk
Idk
I dont have any footage because i refunded the game
i dont think thats even possible to happen unless your bullets were maybe hitting an object that wasnt the enemy
im sorry that happened to you
Its k
I could tel something was wrong with my game because of the footage i saw but i kept reloading and it never fixed so i just refunded it
Maybe i'll try again
How did you even find the ammo to do that
Wait nvm
well theres no reloading
so unless you just kept spinning your gun hoping for more ammo
honestly idk if i even believe you tbh
How can I see what level I am? I still can't post screenshots to show the translation bugs
press tab
i think
also shows time, secrets you found and enemies still left
i think he meant level as in level on this server
he's talking about roles
I'm trying to get the play dusk on steam thing in the giveaway but I bought the game on gog, is there anyway to transfer the game from gog to steam?
Is dusk on switch ever gonna go on sale
Maybe
Yes I meant the server roles, but thanks anyway 🙂
try uploading to imgur or another service
then post links that way
it won't embed but others can click on it
no
Damn :'(
Go to #903113855964680252 to find DuskWorld games 👍
think they meant to join a private server named “pissworld” and the pissword password is “piss”
Ok, i'm in e3m5, what should i do after i destroyed the altar?
yes
the first time i just went to the back part end got killed
Damn, the ghetto pacifist is really a nightmare, is it because they commit suicide by exploding barrels? Because if I am not mistaken, deaths between enemies usually don't count.
Correct, it's the barrels
this, but irl
can you do me a solid and never speak again
you cannot ban me this is a soundfile i got from dusk
I don't see any
where
I deleted it because I got scared
It's the mama alert sound
Sounds like a chick moaning
We kinda had this discussion before
It didn't go anywhere because we didn't knew much about it overall, but i did say that the first episode should be made a demo
only the first level should be demo
the first level that can be beaten in 2 minutes?
stupidest thing i ever heard
Make an entirely new level for your demo
load 1996 quake shovelware directly into SDK, ship as demo
actually not an awful idea
but then that would ruin the concept of the demo cause you're supposed to sample the main campaign, not some demo only content
snag one of those levels from ep3 that do that already
make the demo dweller in darkness 
what is that?
Second last level :)
wait wouldn’t you just start out with zero guns
Sequel of Iron Lung?
any update on hd? : >
😉
We only just announced it like a few weeks ago lmao
also that yeah
We need this
that's ages
you can grow a really long beard in that time
lmao
Epic Dusk Fact: Jakob actually didn't have his eyelids removed by the cult, nor did the cult want him to, he just kinda did that to himself for no discernible reason
Dude literaly didnt wanted sleep to affect his Grind
Jakob got that Sigma male mindset
Dusk Male
He had to become better at bunnyhopping
The air getting in his eyes made him blink too much
So he decided he wouldn’t blink
that crystal of madness is some good shit
The crystals of meth
How am I supposed to walk on walls with the powerup i can't get it to work
Shift
hope the hd update makes that more clear
@rancid ether I first noticed it about a month ago, I've owned dusk since chapter 2 released and its never lagged before, coincidently a bunch of other games started lagging too
Update your driver?
Huh?
How odd.
I've had the occasional framedrop too.
Fun game
Yo it's me again, coming in with a monthly check-in. Still working on the HD Dusk textures. Here was a fun one.
haha, are you doing reworks for the environments?
Trypohobia
tripe-ophobia
Better than kool-aid
Is this the ocean of blood from iron lung?
I think those are the flesh webs from the crypt
Iron lung is just a dusk sequel tbh
Yeah and squirrel stampler is the prequel
Duskdude was just hunting rodents then Jakob kidnapped him
catboy jakob
i want this mod on the workshop immediately
the day the rewrite comes out
dusk82 is the prequel
squirrel stapler is dusk82 prequel then?
or is this like a multiverse thing going on here?
oh no
Squirrel stapler is actually the story of Dusk Dude’s family
The entire game is an hallucination caused by the fumes of the house going on fire combined with the madness crystals
If any other of davids games would be in the dusk universe
It should be squirrel stapler
shut up q
afaik David considered having it be in the Dusk canon
But decided against it
players: 'is x in y universe?' david: 'sure, why not'
ya'll give this topic way more attention and thought than he ever did lol
Someone should make two drastically different games that are set in the same canon
Like how Spy Kids and Machete Kills are in the same universe
sure why not
No that is an actual question- like, I get the point of the game is building up to god with eerie stuff but it makes a lot of sense now that I think about it
afaik Azathoth isn't the most powerful deity in lovecraft mythos
Also, Azathoth’s presence is heralded by ominous chanting, a sound of drums and flutes
Which fits pretty nicely with the squirrel chorus
He's the supreme being of time and space but the mythos goes beyond that
armour
Sure but not really? He is the king of the outer gods in the same way a yeti is the king of a mountain
thanks
He is just really really powerful, he doesn’t give a shit
Mythos stuff is all intentionally unclear and canon is pretty loose so I'm not completely sure
60% of his appearances are his son Nyarlathotep trying to trick a mortal into getting too close to the mousetrap so he can have a laugh when their neck snaps
The only thing warding them being, of course, the ominous chanting that says that he is here and they should be taking their leave right that moment
Yeah I like that theory
The last major reference in Lovecraft's fiction to Azathoth was in 1935's "The Haunter of the Dark", which tells of "the ancient legends of Ultimate Chaos, at whose center sprawls the blind idiot god Azathoth, Lord of All Things, encircled by his flopping horde of mindless and amorphous dancers, and lulled by the thin monotonous piping of a demonic flute held in nameless paws"
-Wikipedia
Yeah sorry I think I got that from some weird conflicting info
There's some stuff about the mythos that imply that all of the dimensions are different manifestations of Yog Sothoth and that he is reality itself
But Lovecraft also said that Yog Sothoth is born the nameless mist which was born of Azathoth
We’re not taking at face value everything love craft says
"yog sothoth" wow he really was just making up words wasn't he
Otherwise things would get really bad with minorities here
lmao
how do you even pronounce "sothoth"
Sofof probably
Soffoth
Anyway canon discussion aside I like the idea of squirrel god being Azathoth
Or an avatar of Nargle
The greatest enemies of the great old ones are crazy old men full of spite with increasingly bigger guns
Old men are the future
I showed iron lung to my dad
he's never played a fps so I had to teach him
he started doing complex math to get the angles
he crashed into a wall and said he's gonna lie down
wait iron lung is an fps?
it's first person
Did he get scared
hi guys, finally gonna try Dusk on my Switch tomorrow, really excited to get a shot at the game even if its not on PC

Alright, tell us if it works out
I hope he gets through the game
so long as its not Ultrakill fast im sure i'll make do with the Switch controls, im getting in all sorts of games for my Switch so im gonna order a bit of pizza and have some fun playing them all
but you don’t shoot anything so it’s not a first person shooter
i have heard from people Dusk is the best FPS on the Switch right now with surprisingly capable controls
especially for such a fast paced FPS
i mean if its one of the 3 games that run at 60 fps its top 3 objectively
i think its the best of those 3 so yeah
Reminder that the only game better than dusk on switch is Tetris 🙂
what about amid evil
is amid evil bad
wrong
the simple concept of tetris can easily be picked up and it’s still addictive nonetheless with a high skill ceiling
First to sell one æillion copies
amid evillion copies
I went to a secret level with rats in it
I hope I didn'r miss much of the last one
Mama is kicking my ass
To be fair, I think quake is on the switch
So that's probably pretty great too
I'm sure it runs at 60 too
I'm not well versed in the switch fps library
I bet boomerang X runs decently, doom is a solid enough port
I tried immortal redneck on switch....
or at least get addons?
It wasn't a good experience
for quake on switch
Low frame rate, low resolution, low everything
Not sure tbh
Maybe I'll buy the port to check it out
But yeah, I think your choices of 60fps shooters on switch is small
So if that's your thing, dusk probably isn't a bad choice
how optimized is dusk
Ehhhh they're both imperfect for sure
We were quite exhaustive with performance to hit 60fps on switch with dusk
It pays off though, because now the Xbox port runs at 400+fps at 4k lol
is that soon tm
? 
Hopefully, I have to clean it up a bit basically
and will it be game pass
And add whatever features we want to support
We would like to do that
MR 500 PTS my custom MAP for DUSK runs at THIRTY ONE EF PEE ESS
Yeah I'm sure it does lol
It's ok I'll add it to the console port
And it will run mega
thank YOU
Custom maps on console 
func_vehicle on switch or something
The map has killed me every time
What if you, not do that :)
NO DONT KILL HIM
😱 i cant believe this
Generally that is the issue with community content though
We don't own the rights to your work, so selling it is a grey area
free dlc
Even still, it would require a lot of approval and consent
I'd love to do a community dlc
Like a map pack
Yes
"please sign right here to forfeit everything you made and transfer ownership of your steam account to leon."
Obviously we would work to make things cleaner and run better
Ok actiblizz
And it wouldn't have the bugs the SDK has
It's a hard thing to do, which is why you don't see it often , especially on consoles
and then that one youtuber will call specifically my map quake shovelware tier
and it's officially removed with an apology to players
anywho im sure you got this question a million times over but
why isnt there a demo for dusk

lol
Tbh no idea why
equivalent to mobile game stores
I think its just because we finished dusk before we repopularized demos 😎
honestly levels 1-2 are top tier, especially for a demo
if i played that i'd be like "WOW MORE"
itch.io version of ultrakill will do
(it will not)
I found a cheese strat for mama so she will no longer terrorize me
I threw a barrel at her container before pressing the button and she spawns, she will then take constant slow damage for some rwason
Reason*
Fire damage
I will say it's a very slow kill
Oh my goodness
Gawd daem
Black Philip when White Howard walks in
Lovecraft
i still don't follow
What did the H.P. Stand for
hairy pussy
This fella spittin
when i get too close to an enemy and i shoot my bullets go through the enemy is this a glitch or something
No, it's a feature
oh ok
You clearly want to hug them when you are so close to them
Wouldnt want to hurt them by accident
but they still wanna kill me
Well, it's either that, or they make it so you can't walk through enemies and can get stuck between them
also what does morale do
armor
still useless in duskmare difficulty
Not really
duskmare
Because you take regular splash damage in duskmare
So you can’t accidentally blow yourself up
This is one of my favorite areas in the game. After the biggest arena fight in the entire game you get ready to face Jakob. You enter not into his arena, but rather an open area surrounded by trees. I wonder what this place is, maybe it was once important to Jakob before he became whatever he is now. The music is perfect for the atmosphere, and I’ve heard that it was actually composed by David instead of Hulshult. It’s a very brief moment but one I always appreciate.
Yep that's right, that's a David composition
I always listen to it before I go through
I imagine this place is just Jakob’s house. Built next to the access point to the eldritch horror, like the color in the water.
At some point he stopped tolerating it’s existence and started fearing it. After that, he embraced it.
It is a small moment of quiet because it’s like radiation. It’s not gonna become a problem if not months later so for now you can sit down and relax a bit. It’s almost over.
The sky is just a void.
That’s just wrong
There’s definitely a big red cloud of evil in the middle
But again, something eldritch has an effect on the surrounding areas
I like to think the labs became like that because of what they were studying
Rooms started appearing where they shouldn’t
I can not spell nya low tep but yeah he definitely doing some meddling.
Building maps became incomprehensible
I like to think he waited until they were fully reliant on the reactor before turning them
Its simple
Just remember nyarla
forbidden word
hep
Twas a joke.
Oh I know I just wanted to make the tee heich oh tee joke
This server will talk about games where you tear everyone up until they’re guts on the floor but you can’t say that word
what did david mean by this
Bravo Davince
Mans lost it
fuo fuc oyouv
probably copied a real life graffiti near where he lives
Most of the textures are pictures and photos yes
yeah the leathernecks texture was actually just a photo of some guy who was outside david's lawn

i’ve stayed away from the public perception a lot as to keep my opinions of the game my own, but what’s the general consensus on the latter parts of the game? i was absolutely mesmerized by neobabel and the infernal machine and most of episode 2. the atmosphere on those particular levels are genuinely so inspiring. everything up to blasphemy was amazing. but once the game starts to reach it’s ending segments, it became super disappointing to me considering how spectacular the middle parts of the game were. i’m simply curious what others peoples opinions on this is. i’m sure it’ll grow on me anyways
What didn’t you like about the last part?
I think there's a lot of divisive parts in the end of the game, as we experimented with a lot of stuff
Homecoming is whacky
Dweller in darkness is a combat trial
Then ofc E3m8 is a bunch of repeated segments mashed together
And then the last level is just a boss fight
So I can see that not being to everyone's taste
I do feel what you're feeling, a bit of dissapointment that the levels after Blasphemy don't have as massive set pieces as the other levels, but i find that the other levels stand out in their own ways
the final levels, especially the last 3, were my favorite parts of the game, but it’s fine if you didn’t enjoy them
it’s your opinion
Those levels are quite different compared to the rest of the game
i think i was expecting more that was different, but it is fair that the last few levels are throwing everything from the earlier parts of the game at you so you can use all of the things you’ve learned in one place. i think my biggest grudge was the all the reused level stuff, i was not a big fan of that. but i found the homecoming gravity thing weird and interesting. i definitely agree with toby in saying that some of them do stand out a lot, but i was expecting those grand setpieces for the ending parts. i didn’t think it was bad at all i should clarify!!! i am thankful for the dusk experience
(in reply to this)
I think one of the things with the whole reusing set pieces is it plays with that mind-boggling aspect
but once the game starts to reach it’s ending segments, it became super disappointing to me considering how spectacular the middle parts of the game were
lemme introduce you to xen
Nah, Xen is a massive change in gameplay and setting to the rest of the game, it deserves the criticism
The second half of Episode 3 is less being super creative and more about bringing back things you saw before, nailing the point that you're reaching the end. It's more about pacing
Which is why Homecoming and As Above So Below are composed of assets and areas you saw before, but remixed in a way that they're different
The Dweller in Darkness is also pretty bare, but it's supposed to be a massive arena where you kill hundreds of enemies, so it fits
that's kind of the point though
the ending was effectively trying to do exactly what jakob said at the homecoming; "look at all we've done together". it's a reflection of the entire journey that led up to this point, the big set pieces came when they needed to happen, if the entire last half of the episode was just big set piece after big set piece it would have gotten stale, and honestly, wouldn't have the type of game that dusk is.
and like others have pointed out, having the set pieces come prior to that point hammers in the idea that those last few levels were hammering in.
plus, not doing what's expected of it is kinda dusk's whole thing, it doesn't always conform to what people think it's gonna be.
i can understand your point, but ultimately it's for the better that the game ended the way it did.
this is really fair yeah, i do love this game in that it does things so differently. and i do agree if the game DID follow what i initially expected from it, it would not follow the type of game that dusk is. so i guess i am rather thankful the ending section is like this, even if i don’t like it that much. i’m sure it will grow on me with consecutive playthroughs, but it was cool hearing everyone else’s thoughts
it was pretty important for us to represent a lot of different aspects about what makes retrofps great in the game, and some of the decision making in the levels was informed by that want
so, naturally, not all of them will land with everyone
like dweller was actually originally called "things get serious" as an homage to serious sam
not everyone likes a serious sam style combat arena, but its something it was important for david to try making, i think
thank you devs for this game playing on cero miedo and loving it, just started second episode
still getting lag
is the scarecrow death sound an edited wilhelm scream?
i have acquired Dusk for my Switch
gonna start playing it in a bit, just sorting out other games beforehand
playing it now, despite being on a handheld its actually amazing how well it controls and plays, especially with gyro aim, sure i aint got a keyboard and mouse for the true boomer shooter experience but even in this form its absolutely fantastic
man im glad i picked it up
im not using gyro aim in docked mode but in handheld it feels so good to use gyro
think its a case of how in handheld the gyro can be done relative to the position of the Switch and its screen making it much more intuitive meanwhile docked you can exactly move a monitor or TV with a control for a 1:1 movement with gyro
I dont think...duskworld is in beta?
it says to press f5 on my inbox but i dont understand
if Amid Evil and any other New Blood port to Switch is of such significant quality as the Dusk port then i'll probably be getting even more New Blood games on Switch
why do shotgun reload looks sexy af than valorant relaod
What reload
The shotgun spin
@mild ginkgo I finally got pacifist even in the ghetto level, I think it was just a fluke lol
However, I re-did the last level as well, and I think I can confirm that there is a pretty big translation error right at the end at the crucial moment: in the original I think Nyarla says that I am worthy of his power, but in the Italian translation he says exactly the opposite.
you are not worthy as an italian
I just realized one of the nyarlatothep mid fight hints is not localized
Just says "THE LIGHT"
========================
yeah it shouldn't be "indegno"
since the line is "you are indeed worthy"
There are a few errors here and there, also the accented letters are a constant problem, to use them they had to use another font, and in some places they are totally missing, see for example the chapter selection.
Should I buy dusk or amid evil? (I own Ultrakill)
Both in a bundle with a good discount
Evil Nyarlathotep be like
You are indeed unworthy
That sounds like duskdude…
That sounds like the Italian sub
why is a dead bitch more tankier than a christian kkk member
holy shit its gale

so i just beat this game
i didn't understand the ending completely though
you win
Satan gives you superpowers and makes you his second in command because you were a badass
theres nothing more than that?
You are worthy 🥳
Well Nyarlathotep is a god from the Lovecraft mythos
So there's a lot more you can extrapolate based on that but as for the plot that's basically it
so the dusk lore isn't super deep then is what im getting from this
Yeah not Dusk itself
There's a lot more that's implied through environmental storytelling
ok so now that ive gone through dusk and ultrakill should i try amid evil
Yes
Sure
hi, i have heard somewhere that someone is working on a polish localization of dusk, is it true?

Hello frens
I'm interested in modding dusk, and while I can play the game on M1 OSX just fine, the sdk isn't playing nice with me
Any tips? Or am I sol?
only windows is supported iirc
Hot damn, that's too bad
You'll need to look into bootcamp for the SDK, as we don't publish (nor have we made) any Mac builds of it currently
Alternatively you can try Wine if you're on a Mac capable of using it
Thanks for the info! You wouldn't happen to have an idea if it'd run in Parallels, would you?
I'll give it a spin and report back
