Those lighting effects only happen in levels with lots of fog

#

I.e the upcoming episodes

pliant lotus
#

Thanks leon.

night ginkgo
#

The moon boss level has enough fog for the sword to look like that

#

If you wanna see it in action

urban anvil
#

glad to report after nuking my saves that everything works

#

my game no longer crashes after completing a level

#

@night ginkgo

night ginkgo
#

ok good to hear

summer meteor
#

looving the game so far

#

the weapon from episode 2 feel me like thanos lol

#

erasing all the mobs with a single click

night ginkgo
#

haha yeah

devout olive
#

But to make you feel like Thanos wouldn't it have to only erase half the enemies? leonthink

tropic patio
#

HOL UP

#

why is it on sale

winged ibex
#

Because sales

tropic patio
#

but-- but--

versed violet
#

Because they hate money

Lain, your logo reminds me of Kamen Rider Ghost.

frosty drift
#

that's what it's probably from. lain likes his korean stuff

river kelp
#

okay so i've been playing through this since i got it last month and:
i love the old-school shareware quitscreen

#

and the lighting effects on the weapon sprites are amazing oh my god

night ginkgo
river kelp
#

PLUS the fact that i hadn't even realized that the pickups were just 2d sprites until halfway through The Sacred Path

#

GOD.

#

Definitely will be playing this for quite a while

night ginkgo
#

yeah we got a few tricks here and there

#

the planets you shoot are 2d as well

#

the skyboxes are 2d as well

river kelp
#

i've noticed \o/
there's so many neat things in both this and Dusk that i've just been in awe over and i'm glad for both you, David and the rest of the New Bloods who made 'em possible

tardy cove
#

Yeah, Amid Evil has some graphic sorcery going on

#

It took me a while to realize weapons were actually 2d sprites O.o

regal apex
#

Lies

night ginkgo
#

What

plain grail
#

he said lies

#

your kingdom is crashing down around your ears, you are exposed as a charlatan

crystal spruce
#

I'm thinking of getting Amid Evil. How good is it?

gilded yarrow
#

pretty good

tall temple
#

its like skyrim
with colors

gilded yarrow
#

its pretty similar to quake

#

so if you like that youll like amid evil

crystal spruce
#

I love Quake.

#

Quake 1 or Quake 2?

gilded yarrow
#

1

#

same sorta hub setup

#

weapons are basically just the weapons from doom except contextualised to be magical

crystal spruce
#

I love Quake 1.

tardy cove
#

This is Hexen/Heretic style

#

If you like those, you'll like AE

gilded yarrow
#

only really in visuals

#

gameplay is more like quake

#

theres no inventory, classes or interconnected world with puzzles like in hexen/heretic

proper oxide
#

Quake level design with Heretic weapons

winged ibex
#

Pretty much.

regal apex
#

Cod level design with Heretic weapons

tardy cove
#

Heretic didn't have classes nor interconnected world either, it was medieval Doom, basically

craggy cypress
#

Its like that thing we have to compare it to because God knows you won't understand if we have to actually explain the game to you.

#

Its like a water buffalo in a kayak screaming at the top of its lungs whilst an old man plays yankee doodle on a broken banjo crying make it stop

woeful saffron
#

I mean, Amid Evil is an alright game, in all honesty it'd be a ton better if there was loot boxes and an exclusive season pass.

frosty drift
#

the publisher wide oshcoin system is still in development

craggy cypress
#

Oh and everything you do has to cost energy from taking a step to swinging an axe and you can upgrade your energy as the game progresses sure but every action everytime you use it costs more and more but don't worry you can always just buy more. @woeful saffron

woeful saffron
#

And that my friend is life, energy; your metaphysical properties measuring how many swings you can do with the Axe of The Labyrinth. Just buy more and more

crystal spruce
#

I’m pretty hyped for weapon skins to be implemented.

buoyant phoenix
#

You'll get them in lootcrates

runic panther
#

Okay, I have an odd quirk that I don't know how to solve

night ginkgo
#

awesome

runic panther
#

Anybody want to help me out?

night ginkgo
#

what is it

runic panther
#

Okay, so I recently got my dual monitor setup done, but every time I open Amid Evil it boots up on my secondary monitor (which has reduced picture quality due to it being a spare), and I have to open it in windowed mode and move it to my main screen, but it doesn't stay there when I boot up amid evil again after closing. What do?

night ginkgo
#

ok so here's the fix

#

drag #1 and make it slightly higher up

#

run the game

#

you can move it back down after

#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

#

idk how the fuck this works, but it does

runic panther
#

Umm, okay

#

Holy shit that worked

#

Thanks

#

πŸ‘Œ

night ginkgo
#

lmao I found it on the fortnite forums

#

some bizzare unreal engine thing

runic panther
#

I didn't even know you could do that

#

Or that it even worked like that

night ginkgo
#

position monitors? yeah it's been around for years

#

but the game should always appear on #1

winged ibex
#

Neat.

#

What else have you learned from the Fortnite forums Leon?

night ginkgo
#

unreal engine doesn't work well with AMDFX cpus

winged ibex
#

Oh.

devout olive
#

Which you have, don't you

night ginkgo
#

yep

#

but I have the gruntiest one

devout olive
#

I thought you only had an 8590?

runic panther
#

Is AMDFX the same as normal AMD systems? what the difference?

devout olive
#

Amd FX is just a line of cpus

night ginkgo
#

yeah it's certain FX cpus tho

#

mine seems ok

devout olive
#

Oh you do have the best one

#

Or the beefier one at least

night ginkgo
#

yeah I have a giant liquid cooler attached to it

#

an NZXT kraken

winged ibex
#

Yeah I think I have an AMD FX too.

dark granite
#

Yeah the fx line has issues with audio processing in ue4 iirc

winged ibex
#

And not a very good cooler.

#

So my PC just roars and roars.

runic panther
#

Question, where's the fourth playable world?

night ginkgo
#

"solar solstice"

#

it's up the ramps in the 2nd part of the hub

#

opposite arcane expanse

runic panther
#

Oh

night ginkgo
#

you found it?

versed violet
#

Thanks shill

Waves nervously.

runic panther
#

JESUS CHRIST, the green axe guys in Solar Solstice are a complete pain to deal with

gilded yarrow
#

it used to be worse before the ai update

#

they used to just rush you and didnt hold back

runic panther
#

THEY JUST KEEP DOGPILING ME

gilded yarrow
#

if it helps they always charge in the direction your moving

#

if youre holding D theyll charge to your right to cut you off

runic panther
#

That could be usefull

quasi pier
#

AE is not really hard

runic panther
#

Its not

gilded yarrow
#

well i guess not for people who are familiar with these kind of games

#

i think its harder than dusk

proper oxide
#

AE forces you to change your tactics

#

either adapt or die

queen leaf
runic panther
#

Which is good, I just haven't acclimatized to these enemies attack patterns yet

quasi pier
#

maybe its just me,too many completer Doom wads with high difficulty level

gilded yarrow
#

stupidly hard doom wads are actually the worst

#

i hate them

runic panther
#

Same

gilded yarrow
#

and theres too many of them

#

not enough fun mid-challenge wads

quasi pier
#

no no no,never too many good wads

queen leaf
#

GASP HOW DARE YOU!

proper oxide
#

ancient aliens and alt are good challenges

gilded yarrow
#

i fucking hate plutonia

quasi pier
#

just play something casual...like sunder.wad

gilded yarrow
#

and all wads like it

queen leaf
#

There is a fine art in...

proper oxide
#

plutonia is fine

queen leaf
#

Popping in and out of walls...and...

gilded yarrow
#

chaingunner spam isnt fine

runic panther
#

Chaingunners are not fine

proper oxide
#

chaingunners are fine

gilded yarrow
#

there was a super hard wad that i actually liked

quasi pier
#

Plutonia is fine

proper oxide
#

something you just have to deal with

gilded yarrow
#

i think it was called temple of unholy fire or something

#

idk why but i liked that one even tho it was super hard

quasi pier
queen leaf
#

50 Archviles in open space though

gilded yarrow
#

ye fuck that

proper oxide
#

once you learn chaingunners have an insanely high pain chance

gilded yarrow
#

its not actually killing them thats the issue

#

its when map designers hide hitscanners in cheeky places

#

and you take damage that isnt your fault

runic panther
#

OH THAT REMINDS ME, I need to reinstall all of my source ports

quasi pier
#

just tap chaingun....that way you have laser accuracy and you win

gilded yarrow
#

once you spot them theyre easy its just the process of dieing 2 or 3 times before you figure out where they are

#

baron of hell spam can fuck off too

#

super tedious

runic panther
#

Well, I finished the all of the currently playable episodes, and I have to say, it was great

#

Solar Solstice kicked my ass quite a bit, but it was fun

#

Can't wait for more

tardy cove
#

Solar Solstice is easily the hardest of the bunch yet

runic panther
#

THAT FUCKING MONSTER CLOSET THAT YOU FLY TO IN THE LAST LEVEL

quasi pier
#

on what difficulty you play?

runic panther
#

Medium

tardy cove
#

Hard + warrior

runic panther
#

Might have to try that

tardy cove
#

Make sure you know where the secrets and stuff are, or some levels are gonna be hell, I warn you

regal apex
#

Nah it's not that bad

#

imo

gilded yarrow
#

i play on evil and its pretty comfortable difficulty wise for me

regal apex
#

Same here

tardy cove
#

YMMV, of course, but try putting yourselves in the place of someone who has not played anything above medium

dire briar
night ginkgo
#

just found an old pic of AE

#

man it looks way better now

winged ibex
#

Yeah, the visuals have improved quite a bit.

#

I do kinda like how big the axe is though, even if it's kinda obstructive.

buoyant phoenix
#

What are those tiny icons next to the health bar?

frosty drift
#

old key icons

night ginkgo
#

yeah old keys

#

there was diamond key

buoyant phoenix
#

Whatever would be to the right of it then?

frosty drift
#

those are the mana bars

buoyant phoenix
#

I mean right side of the health bar

frosty drift
#

oooh

#

that's nothing

#

the health bar's just symmetrical

vocal ingot
#

Old keys, before leon went full on ripping off quake

night ginkgo
#

the powerup indicators were gonna show on the right side

#

but yeah we didn't need more than two keys

buoyant phoenix
#

You should have went the blood route

#

six keys

frosty drift
night ginkgo
#

yeah omg blood has way too many keys

#

and armor types

frosty drift
#

ye way too much

buoyant phoenix
#

Like can anyone name an enemy that did spiritual damage?

night ginkgo
#

probably the ghost dudes

#

fuck em btw

#

and the hands

queen leaf
#

I'll swallow your soul!

night ginkgo
#

lmao yeah army of darkness reference, right?

queen leaf
#

yep

#

In 2 they will flip you off as well

night ginkgo
#

what do you mean by "2"

#

they never made a blood 2

buoyant phoenix
#

Man I sure wish they made a sequel to blood

night ginkgo
#

me too

queen leaf
#

oooooh right

night ginkgo
#

has anyone ever made a 'we want jojo' meme which summons jotaro or something

#

from that circus level in blood

proper oxide
#

Leon when do you finally implement armor

#

Kthx

frosty drift
#

no

regal apex
#

Maybe

tardy cove
#

Armor is for weaklings

regal apex
#

Weapons as well

steel brook
#

I don't mind Blood's keys, it's part of how it managed to have such interesting level design

#

but I've never known a single person who could make sense of the armor without reading a guide

frosty drift
#

the armor really was mega overkill

crystal spruce
#

Yeah Blood does have too many keys!!... andrew <crawls back into #general-modding and removes "too many" keys from maps>

steel brook
#

Nah, Blood miraculously made 6 keys work just fine

crystal spruce
#

In fact any Sprite can be made a key basically... Just change statnumid to 3 or 5 can't remember and when you pick up it unlocks whatever door or gargoyle or meme you want! Anyways.. #amid-evil-or-hunt-showdown

AE Ultimate

200 leons and 1 simmo and 1 james

No pay but theres a food trough full of chinese takeout that you can go nuts in at midnight

night ginkgo
#

hmm?

lavish oasis
#

was meant for a search. Was trying to see if you could set the upscaling used

#

namely wanted to set r.Upscale.Quality to 0

night ginkgo
#

I'm not sure if the game will upscale

#

it can if you use the nvidia control panel

#

it doesn't natively

lavish oasis
#

i think by default its set to 1

1/10 for the memes

Indefatigable (aka "The Indie") was one of the key ships in the Horatio Hornblower series of novels by C. S. Forester.

#

The Indie

night ginkgo
#

that's exactly what it's named after

cursive kestrel
#

hah

night ginkgo
#

also the indefatigable was (IRL) one of the most successful ships-of-the-line even tho it was a razee (smaller ship with less guns)

summer meteor
#

still playing with that monitor tho

#

updated the drivers so i can play on 800x640

hidden dune
#

you playing in windowed mode? I think you'd get better performance in fullscreen

tall temple
#

On lower end machines, exclusive full screen is the better option

#

Lower resolution and scale is the name of the game at that point

summer meteor
#

in 800x640 i get the settings

#

in 640x480 i can't

#

and i dont know where it's the .ini to change things on notepad++

#

if somebody can tell me i will be great <:

tall temple
#

Pretty sure 640*480 is the lower limit of the scaler

#

So you're at the bottom

no, but i can change settings in window mode, becuase i cant select to fullscreen

Wow am I ever glad I checked out this channel. I am definitely buying Amid Evil. The Heretic nostalgia seeing the crossbow in Dusk had me wishing these guys would do something like Heretic... And sure enough they already have.

So excited to play it.

On top of being a good game it also looks absolutely gorgeous

Ty, always nice to hear comments like these

third secret area in first episode first level. love the stone glittering in the dark

#

made my day πŸ˜…

crystal spruce
#

yes the stone effects are beautiful.

crystal spruce
#

Whoa nice graphics!

#

By the way, will there be mod support for amid evil?

proper oxide
#

nope

#

UE4 is an omega pain to mod

crystal spruce
#

Will there be mutators?

proper oxide
#

cant say, the game is nowhere near being done atm, so who know what could happen in the future

gilded yarrow
#

how come every other version of ue supports modding but 4 doesnt

#

like whats different about it that makes mods a pain

quasi pier
#

i also dont understand this,Epic Games always supported modding

frosty drift
#

at some point during UE4's development they decided to scrap that

#

who knows why

gilded yarrow
#

they seem to scrap a lot of things nowadays

#

basically every game theyve made recently except fortnite has either been a failure or is stuck in dev hell

crystal spruce
#

got a small patch just now

#

66.3 mb?

topaz stump
#

πŸ€”

#

No patch here. Don't think there was one planned for today

devout olive
#

could be cloud saves or something

crystal spruce
#

could be

topaz stump
#

Most likely cloud saves or redists

crystal spruce
#

but i havent played since 6/30

#

idk caught me off of guard

#

what's the high legit wave someone has gotten to in HoE

crystal spruce
#

what's the high legit wave someone has gotten to in HoE?

night ginkgo
#

im not sure

#

before the patch someone got up to wave 100

#

when the leaderboards are in cheats will be disabled

#

so we'll know for sure then

crystal spruce
#

then thats my goal

#

if the game doesn't die by that point and i don't run out of space while recording

#

actually im gonna see how high the wave counter can go

#

time to stress test

night ginkgo
#

if the game doesn't die by that point

#

OOF

crystal spruce
#

uh

#

so aextinct breaks HoE

#

time to make a better macro

versed violet
#

big oof

#

what a statement

crystal spruce
#

does black hole kill with god mode?

#

okay so im gonna watch youtube in another window

#

i have a macro for left clicking with the slot 7 (forgot name) with AEOMGEA

night ginkgo
#

...why

crystal spruce
#

place you bets on which wave will crash the game?

night ginkgo
#

oh

#

idk it should go for quite a while

crystal spruce
#

im stress testing for the hell of it

#

if i was actually going for high wave i would record/stream it

#

since there is no way to tell if they cheated at death screen

#

@night ginkgo does the black hole kill god mode?

#

HOLY SHIT, I just beat the 3rd boss on hard without dying somehow

crystal spruce
#

nice man

runic panther
#

Thanks

river kelp
#

i've noticed this thing where i'll get two or more achivements on a level and only get one of them

crystal spruce
#

@runic panther gotta kill it on EVIL

runic panther
#

I've been powering through the game on hard and, I've been doing far better than I thought

#

Wait what?

lilac copper
#

hahaha

#

my reaction exactly

crystal spruce
#

there is a secret difficulty you can find

#

at the hub

#

a la quake 1

runic panther
#

THERES A FOURTH DIFFICULTY MODE?

lilac copper
#

^

#

yup

runic panther
#

FUCK

#

After this

lilac copper
#

better just restart xD

crystal spruce
#

yeah its achievement if you find it

runic panther
#

Nah, I'll beat Hard first, then try it

crystal spruce
#

@runic panther

runic panther
#

I got it

crystal spruce
#

i don't now what the changes are

#

know*

#

@runic panther also if EVIL is too easy for you there is warrior mode.

runic panther
#

What exactly does warrior mode do exactly? One hit death?

crystal spruce
#

no

#

inventory gets reset on level exit

runic panther
#

Ah, so like Intruder mode on DUSK

crystal spruce
#

yeah

runic panther
#

Neat

#

Gonna try that on evil

crystal spruce
#

good luck warrior

runic panther
#

'o'7

crystal spruce
#

#

cool lil ee

#

Very Happy -Nothing- ADDED

runic panther
#

Well, I need to hit they hay, I'll finish hard tomorrow and begin the pain train that will be Evil+Warrior

crystal spruce
#

oof flying ai can't correct it's self

night ginkgo
#

it can

#

it probably won't if the player is still

tardy cove
#

@runic panther Warrior + Evil is a bitch, I warn you

#

Enemies are faster, have more health and hit like freight trains

night ginkgo
#

final boss is a freight train

tardy cove
#

CHOO CHOO

plucky isle
#

final boss is a hype train

#

CHOO CHOO MADAFUKA

night ginkgo

it really is

#

#

M' champion > M' lady

tardy cove
#

That would be more horrifying than any monster, tbh

regal apex
#

Y e p

runic panther
#

Why is my firerate so slow all of a sudden?

#

Yeah, literally all of my weapons are slowing down for some reason, the rest of the game is fine though

plucky isle
#

Looks like your fps limit is set somewhere between 30 and 60

#

'cause weapon frames are bound to fps

runic panther
#

Actually its not FPS locked

#

And I usually get around 100fps

plucky isle
#

then try setting it to either 60 or 120

runic panther
#

I'm getting 150+ right now so

plucky isle
#

okay then ask Leon, he definitely knows all those issues

runic panther
#

The issue seems to have resolved itself, I think it was because I was getting around 85fps due to all of the clutter last mission

plucky isle
runic panther
#

Beat Solar Solstice on hard finally.

#

Time to get broken

#

Wait, how do I enable warrior mode?

gentle zealot
#

somewhere in the options

runic panther
#

Found it

gentle zealot
#

gj

#

you did it

runic panther
#

Actually I kinda figured it out before you posted that

versed violet
#

Well someone is a smarty pants

pliant lotus
#

Hold, up, are all the levels based off of the weapons, in order?

#

Battleaxe, azure orb, whisper's edge, celestial claw?

proper oxide
#

in the first ep kinda

#

not so much in the later episodes

pliant lotus
#

4 being celestial claw is pretty clear.

hidden dune
#

Levels being based off the weapons got cancelled, just like Amid Evil

tardy cove
#

Eh... I don't see how levels relate to weapons?

buoyant phoenix
#

Episodes he meant

gilded yarrow
#

theres a weapon that fires suns and theres an episode that revolves around the sun as a theme

#

but thats really the only two that are linked

#

maybe the azure orb and ep1

buoyant phoenix
#

I mean it knida makes sense if you think azure orb=astral equinox whisper's edge=domain of the sentinels astral claw=solar solstice and aeternum=arcane expanses but that's about it

pliant lotus
#

Well, finally finished Episode 4.

#

I feel like the boss was the most underwhelming.

#

Circle strafing worked just fine, only had to jump to avoid the flares a few times.

lilac copper
#

Playing on Evil difficulty?

#

if not, go find it.

pliant lotus
#

Does that actually add more attacks and change ai, or just increase damage dealt?

lilac copper
#

not sure but after I played the game with that difficulty it did feel closer to home

#

compared to hard I mean

crystal spruce
#

Are there secret levels in this game?

gilded yarrow
#

nope

#

and if there are no ones found them yet

crystal spruce
#

What about secret weapons (like sword in dusk) or references besides Unreal and Hexen and Heretic being inspiration

gilded yarrow
#

well you can get weapons earlier than youre "supposed to" with secret areas

#

but by episode 2 every weapon is given to you

#

and there are a good few easter eggs

#

mainly hidden messages

crystal spruce
#

Ok don’t tell me what they are cause I want to play and find out for myself

river kelp
#

Don't look at the global steam achievements, then- a few surprises are shown there

versed violet
#

Plenty of secret areas in each level

crystal spruce
#

Are there going to be post release updates?

hidden dune
#

hell yeah, dog. We're gonna get a patch that replaces all the enemy sight dialogue with Leon and Simmo saying "Chur"

night ginkgo
#

post release: We'd definitely do bugfix patches. As for new content, who knows

#

I'd like to do an expansion if the game is popular enough

woeful saffron

How is Ep 5 coming along Leon?

it's got more level movement and such

The Forges level 1 looks really pretty that's for sure.

all the levels are pretty

also how did you know it was level 1 πŸ€”

winged ibex
#

L1 is the one with the rain right?

night ginkgo
#

yeah

tardy cove
#

The wait for Ep 5 is becoming painful :___

night ginkgo
#

Working on it matey

gilded yarrow
#

are the encounters in this randomised, because it feels like each time i play through a level the encounters are slightly different

#

like theres more or less enemies in one area than i remember

#

or is it a result of how enemy detection works or something

night ginkgo
#

Nope, there are more or less enemies depending on difficulty though

#

But there's no randomization

winged ibex
#

Randomization is bad ~Leon Zawada 1852

tardy cove
#

This is not Strafe

crystal spruce
#

Woah that monster in the ep5 gif hooked you. Needs to be prefaced by FINISH HIM

hidden dune
#

Oh god, that Ep5 gif makes me really sad there's a 99% chance of modding being impossible

#

imagine all the crazy puzzle maps you could make with the hook enemies

#

or even just crazy secrets

night ginkgo
#

I mean maybe we can do some limited modding. If I can figure a way of doing it

regal apex

The correct response is

#

"LMAO, NO"

If you asked Epic really nicely they might help you out with it

does anyone have any advice on fighting the angry eye-tornado, besides circle strafing it throwing block at me?

tardy cove
#

To avoid the rocks move in circles

#

Not circlestrafing around the arena, but like in small circles

#

It predicts your movement, so if you do that it will have a hard time landing a rock on you

glossy root

oh

Also be sure to check under one of the ramps for useful stuff

trim prism
#

am I the only one having trouble with hitting things with the axe

#

warrior mode feels like a personal hell

urban quiver
#

yep

quasi pier
#

but you gain weapons quickly when starting new lvl

#

no need to swing axe

trim prism
#

generally yes, but E1M2's weapons are all behind small gauntlets, and very limited ammo early on

night ginkgo
#

there's a bit of timing required

trim prism
#

feels like I gotta just kite as many enemies at once, take the secret soul mode at the beginning and grab whisper in the middle

night ginkgo
#

the axe can strike multiple enemies, the actual hit is about the mid point of each swing

#

if you hold it down it's easier to kill enemies

#

a lot of people seem to tap the fire button

trim prism
#

my personal problem is whenever I go to hit enemies, I'm usually straight in their faces and I miss slightly due to strafing

#

the axe's animation kind of throws me off in how it's actually a vertical hitbox in front of the cursor instead of a wide swing

#

I mean ultimately I gotta git gud for sure

#

and yes, I'm playing evil difficulty so maybe I'm just in over my head

night ginkgo
#

this is the axe's actual hit box

trim prism
#

wot

night ginkgo
#

it's a rectangle, it goes out a decent distance

trim prism
#

Hm.

night ginkgo
#

you can hit them from a slight distance if you time it right

trim prism
#

Interesting, so is it like, a disjointed hitbox?

#

not directly starting from the player?

night ginkgo
#

it does start at the player

#

it's a cuboid shape that moves forward instantly

#

it worked out best, we tried quite a few ways of doing it

trim prism
#

Neat. Perhaps I'll just practice a bit in horde mode.

#

Thanks for your help.

crystal spruce
#

Could I turn shadows off?

tall temple
#

you would need to turn everything off

#

intel graphics just isnt meant for games

#

after you turned everything off, you would still need to drop the resolution scale

#

making the image quality worse

#

and the frame rate marginally better but not playable

river kelp
#

If that's a laptop, you're sore outta luck, dude. If that's a desktop, getting a low-end/second hand GPU will help immensely with playing these games.

Otherwise it's not going to play well.
