isnt that a standard shooting speed for a rpg?

bleak slate
#

i have moral issues with the blowing up of inhabitet planets

crystal spruce
#

Don't worry man, those are uninhabited

bleak slate
#

what about all the glittery lights or earth for that matter

crystal spruce
#

Uhhhhhhhhhh

#

Global warming

#

She cute

bleak slate
#

what how? wouldnt there still be people on earth? what about the other planets
i dont want to explode innocent aliens or human people just because i need to fight the demons or whatever they are
they have like, spears and grenade launchers. those are also cool and involve less potential genocide of bystanders

crystal spruce
#

why do you care about npcs

#

Just turn your brain off lmao

bleak slate
#

why dont you care about npcs

crystal spruce
#

they arenโ€™t real(?)

bleak slate
#

thats not the point. the whole game is not real why should i play it its not real afterall

crystal spruce
#

because itโ€™s fun?

bleak slate
#

yeah, and to me it is not fun to blow up inhabited plantes just so i can have some sort of rocket launcher

crystal spruce
#

then play something else

bleak slate
#

that is not a solution

crystal spruce
#

Yeah it is, this game is the developers artistic vision and theirs alone.

bleak slate
#

so you are saying i should refund the game then?

crystal spruce
#

If you donโ€™t enjoy the game, then yes that is the logical solution.

proper oxide
#

lets relax a bit guys

crystal spruce
#

Iโ€™m shocked anyone would have any sort of moral qualms about destroying what is essentially lines of code.

bleak slate
#

yeah, what a bad person i am for taking a game seriously

proper oxide
#

oi i said relax

crystal spruce
#

You blow up the Earth like 10 times per playthrough

proper oxide
#

take it to dms or stop

crystal spruce
#

So I think those inhabitants are gonna be ok

#

this is relaxed conversation

#

this is discourse

lapis hound
#

bystanders??? I think the term your looking for is "acceptable casualties"

vivid flame
#

maybe it's just alternative planets

#

alternative universe planets

#

they can have billlllions of paths where it's created a alternative planet

tardy cove
#

Ehm... did someone get pissy because the claw fires planets?

tall temple
#

nah

crystal spruce
#

yes lol @tardy cove

night ginkgo
#

read the lore

crystal spruce
#

Reading is for nerds

#

scroll up

night ginkgo
#

it pulls them out of space and time, so the planets are from alternate universes

#

/timelines

tardy cove
#

No, I read it

night ginkgo
#

no need to feel guilty

static socket
#

i feel guilty anyway

#

whenever i use the claw i always make sure to land my shots

tardy cove
#

Why would you feel guilty? You're firing freaking planets, that's badass

static socket
#

because imagine living on a planet that becomes fucking ammo (which is awesome) and you hit a wall

tardy cove
#

Besides, way less than 1% of planets have any lifeforms

crystal spruce
#

What if the champ fires his own planet

tardy cove
#

Let alone sentient ones

crystal spruce
#

Is that homicide or suicide?

static socket
#

i want a 0.00001% chance the celestial claw will summon the very planet you stand on

#

and shooting it instakills the player

crystal spruce
#

Well

#

Could be a special message like the one for earth

#

Like

#

"Whoops, you created a time paradox"

tardy cove
#

"you dun goof'd"

limber radish

what the fuck did i just read

it's whatever though

@night ginkgo weapon sway isn't player speed dependent, is it?

oh yep that reminds me i have to update to match the new, real dopefish

๐Ÿ˜ 

static socket
#

STOP! You violated the law

azure trail
#

Thinking of picking this game up

#

Is it like heretic/hexen?

night ginkgo
#

It's fantasy - action - fps

#

so yeah, more like heretic,doom,quake,unreal rather than hexen, which has PUZZLES

azure trail
#

So hexen without the enraging part. Niceu

night ginkgo
#

also

#

you can shoot planets at enemies

azure trail
#

?

night ginkgo
#

one of the weapons shoots planets

azure trail
#

Ok. Im buying it next month

static socket
#

you can shoot freaking PLANETS dude

#

HELL yea

azure trail
#

Gotta finish DUSK first

static socket
#

finish it finish it

azure trail
#

then ill do AE now i guess lol

quasi pier
#

you can blew earth in AE ๐Ÿ‘Œ

static socket
#

i still want a .001% chance that you can shoot the planet you're currently on which would instakill you

#

maybe a couple more zeroes

night ginkgo
static socket
#

fucking SUNS dude

azure trail
#

tbh i love this server. only place where you can directly talk to, imo, some of the best indie devs in recent history. DUSK and AE both seem to bring back that doom aesthetic pretty well, and its glad to see that kind of passion lives on outside of the doom modding community. Also yeah that game looks great. def. getting it. Any way to make it more pixelated looking by any chance tho?

static socket
#

pretty sure there's some sort of resolution scale option that can make the game pixelly

night ginkgo
#

yeah definitely

#

click on it to see the pixels^

static socket
#

chunky โค

night ginkgo
#

lmao it looks like a dream game from the 90's

#

that's how we wished stuff would look

static socket

#

leon i love u

night ginkgo
#

and I love chinese food

azure trail
#

when is amid evil getting a battle royale mode?

#

and when are we getting lootboxes and microtransactions?

night ginkgo
#

tomorrow

cinder mist
#

sneak peek of a lootbox

night ginkgo
#

LMAO

azure trail
#

how much are keys

vivid flame
#

1 mega soul

#

or that would be 2.50$

night ginkgo
#

your credit card numbers and the date

vivid flame
#

but be quick

#

the champion need you help

night ginkgo
#

and then numbers on the back to go in to soul mode

#

dabs

dark granite
#

damn that lootbox is HOT

fringe flint
#

you sons o bitches

night ginkgo
#

you gone and done it ya sons o bitches

signal quartz
#

AE has become an easy cash grab due to loot box feature, betraying Mr.Oshry's "we hate money" policy.
Bad bois.

#

i like how good ue4 makes this game look but i wish it wasnt ue4 so i could beg for an sdk

vocal ingot
#

You can still beg anyway!

#

It just won't do much

#

or anything

static socket
#

ue4 sucks

#

port amid evil to doom

#

so i can run it on my samsung fridge

silk prawn
#

port it to quake engine

steady roost
#

port my samsung fridge to ue4

fringe flint
#

Why does ue4 preclude an sdk?

proper oxide
#

engine issues and licensing issues

crystal spruce
#

How very epic

spice moat
#

Correct me if I'm wrong

#

unlike previous iterations of the Unreal Engine

#

UE4 games are compiled from scratch from the C++ code, right?

steady roost
#

you gotta cook them in yeah you can't just slap a pack in a dir somewhere and have the app read it when it launches

#

im not good w/ ue so that may be completely wrong

#

in the modern era

silk prawn
#

games that cannot be modded are upseting

static socket
#

i know ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

azure trail
#

you can mod amid evil

silk prawn
#

im 100% sure doom wouldnt be remembered as fondly and survived without it

azure trail
#

cheat engine, and you can....change some texture colors

#

i guess

static socket
#

doom would totally be dead without modding

silk prawn
#

like wolfenstein 3d

static socket
#

quake probably wouldve killed it if doom had no modding

silk prawn
#

oh yea quake would have banged

static socket
#

quake did bang lol

#

still does

silk prawn
#

the most changing mod for quake was a chess mod

azure trail
#

wolfenstein 3d isnt dead

#

i mean it is, but it isnt

#

lives on through doom re-ports, and modern wolfenstein tbh

vivid flame
#

Doom live by mods

#

Quake lived by MP

#

and MP mods

silk prawn
#

wolfenstein 3d hasnt had any good source ports like doom

azure trail
#

No, I meant like

#

people have ported wolfenstein through gzdoom

proper oxide
#

wolf3d isnt exactly fun to play either

azure trail
#

and remade it

silk prawn
#

yea brutal wolfenstein

#

but there is no gzwolf

#

no chocolate wolf

azure trail
#

Well, no. Thatd be kinda dumb tho

#

Wolf3d engine is basically a bare bones ID engine

crystal spruce
#

Holy fuck I just found out Acrobats don't dodge planets

#

Now I have a fast way to kill them, thank fuck

#

This makes me wonder though

#

Why is the Voltride the first weapon you get in E6M1

#

That's the absolute worst weapon against Acrobats

#

Maybe a Staff of Azure Orb would be better

#

Or even Whisper's Edge

tardy cove
#

You also get a full soul power, and the Whispers Edge isn't that far behind

#

Nor the Celestial Claw, if you get that secret as well

spice moat
#

Petition for a party of Overseers and Painmasters at the end of E5M3

plucky isle
#

petition to cancel u

tardy cove
#

You already have a couple of Overseers at the end of that map, IIRC

spice moat
#

Speaking of E5M3

crystal spruce
#

You get full soul power, but Acrobats dodge the Voltride more than any other weapon

#

Yeah you get the other weapons quick, but that little brawl with the two Acrobats at the beginning just baffles me

#

Why give you the worst weapon for the first fight

spice moat
#

Soulmyr, just axe them a couple questions

tardy cove
#

That works wonders, as well

crystal spruce
#

But I'll get hit

#

Like once

#

Unacceptable

tardy cove
#

I don't think those ever activate

#

They're just there so you get paranoid about picking up the weapon

crystal spruce
#

Those are just for decoration, like the protectors in Sacred Path

Will it be a good idea to start over with a new game when 1.0 launches?

night ginkgo

Yeah if you want

crystal spruce
#

Start over to see all the cool new lighting inbetween levels

Go the whole way

#

Start truly over

#

by buying a fresh copy

crystal spruce
#

Make a new Steam account and only get Amid Evil

crystal spruce
night ginkgo
#

Sick

#

It would fit on one DVD tho

crystal spruce
#

Yes but 7 CDs would be more retro

#

I still have a Diablo 2 box somewhere with 4 CDs I think

night ginkgo
#

Ye

#

Far cry had 5

crystal spruce
#

The first one?

night ginkgo
#

Phantasmagoria had the most out of any game iirc something like 12

#

Yeah far cry 1 had 5cds

#

Final fantasy 8 had 4

crystal spruce
#

Damn

#

Nowadays they just give you a code and a cardboard disk

night ginkgo
#

Yeah

#

I remember doom 2 had 4 floppies

#

Which was a lot at the time

#

No wait 5

crystal spruce
#

Floppies are fun

#

You can mess around with the silver thing

#

CDs are pretty boring in comparison

#

But USB drives are fun again

night ginkgo
#

Haha

#

Yeah the slider

#

Fuck floppies they sucked

#

Always failing

crystal spruce
#

They were before my time

night ginkgo
#

And slow

crystal spruce
#

Tell me a story Grandpa

night ginkgo
#

They were slow even for back in the day

#

Noisy too

crystal spruce
#

Sounds like my morning routine

#

You know what I miss from old games though

#

The manuals

night ginkgo
#

Yeah they were cool

crystal spruce
#

They used to have all sorts of info on the world and monsters and weapons and I loved reading all that stuff while waiting for the game to install

#

Now it's like

#

"Here's the code, put it in Steam, and also look at these other games we have"

night ginkgo
#

Yeah I still have all of mine

#

The real shit was custom installers

#

Command and conquer had amazing ones

crystal spruce
#

Ah yeah

#

I recently installed Diablo 2 again

#

God that installer has so much love put into it

night ginkgo
#

Just having some nice concept art while they installed was cool too

crystal spruce
#

Custom installers are still a thing with ||pirated copies||

night ginkgo
#

Oof

#

They custom install malware

crystal spruce
#

Maybe, but they got custom music and sometimes fancy ASCII art and everything

marble palm
#

I think I still have a boxed copy of far cry 2 somewhere with a physical version of the game's map

#

those were always nice

#

My brother marked all the diamond spots on there iirc

#

What happened to Leon dude?
His avatar is now Squall from FF8...

tall temple
#

he could do worse

pulsar scaffold
#

hmmm, so this is prob not supposed to happen. When I use aeternum with soul mode and it shoots the black hole. My screen strobes when firing.

tall temple
#

i recommend reinstalling your video drivers. what you're describing typically isnt game related

pulsar scaffold
#

It's only with soulmode aeternum. Ugh I hate reinstalling my drivers because I swear it'll break something because my luck is shite

night ginkgo
#

strobes? like bright flashes?

#

Yeah could be a driver thing. What GFX card are you using?

pulsar scaffold
#

#

#

today's the first time it's happened

#

I've used the weapon before

night ginkgo
#

ah try rebooting your PC

#

could just be one of those weird things. I've had a 660 770 980ti and they all do WEIRD SHIT every once in a while

Just 1 more year for me, gonna build another one next year once I graduate from college

what's the blue mana staff called?

night ginkgo
#

staff of the azure orb

fringe flint
#

yeah

#

i like that it has slight homing on its projectiles

#

it makes flying enemies not so annoying

night ginkgo
#

that's the intention

fringe flint
#

one big reason I enjoyed the game so much. I don't recall any of the reviews mentioning it

#

but it's great

night ginkgo
#

also a lot of games suffer from the first weapon or two becoming redundant

#

we tried to make them all useful

fringe flint
#

episode 3 esp. makes the weapons feel meaningful/useful

Leon dude, my man, my homeboy... This game is sick. The art style has it nailed, the music is great, the weapons have amazing heft and splatter neat looking armored enemies, and the whole game looks and feels like playing a prog rock album cover. It's fucking phenomenal and I'm only on level 3

Will we be able to make levels for this game in trenchbroom like we will in Dusk?

plucky isle

doubt that

UE4 isn't mod friendly

I figured

Is UE4's level editor at least halfway decent?

night ginkgo

it's great but we can't do modding at this stage

I tried making a map for Killing Floor and gave up because it was so damn unintuitive.

night ginkgo

KF1?

that uses UE2

minor cloud

yeet

night ginkgo

which is ancient

minor cloud

yeet

#

I mean, Quake 1 had QuakeForge which was actually somewhat intuitive.

#

And QuakeForge predates Unreal if I'm not mistaken.

night ginkgo

welllll technically UE is from around the same time

#

unreal started dev in 94-95

but came out in 1998

I was simply thinking Mr.Oshry asked Leon/Simon dude to balance the game...not like this.

It's the same kind as "Buy DUSK" message.

Anyway I can't wait for the official release.

I just noticed one track from Dusk soundtracks is titled as TWIN TERRORS...

crystal spruce
#

Deep lore

topaz raven
tall temple
#

play without manual soul mode data

crystal spruce
#

First boss is easy no matter what

#

Even on Evil difficulty warrior mode you can beat him just by going in circles and shooting

#

But Soul Mode does make most of the bosses a cakewalk

proper oxide
#

amid avain man 4

meager forge
#

amid souls

crystal spruce
#

The Sacred Path boss is the only one who doesn't get killed immediately in Soul mode, but he kind of sucks ass

topaz raven
#

That isn't my video, but you are right, I also have been playing in manual mode and didn't think how it affected bosses

tall temple
#

Manual soul mode is essentially a I win button

crystal spruce
#

Yeah

#

Though the Solar Saint does counter soul'd Celestial Claw

#

That's really cool, wish other bosses also had some anti-soul mode mechanic

gentle zealot
#

throwing stars at a sun god makes him more powerful

#

who woulda thunk

crystal spruce
#

I thought he was just a servant of the gods

gentle zealot
#

shrug

#

sun man eat sun

#

is the point

crystal spruce
#

But if we're going by logic, the Voltride should insta-kill enemies in water

#

(which it doesn't, Leon needs to fix the stone fishes)

quasi pier
#

Voltride should be like Q1 thunderbolt in water BigThink

meager forge
#

i agree completely

#

i was surprised i didn't die by shocking in the water while using it

quasi pier
#

for all AE players: remember to use axe soul mode underwater

meager forge
#

but then again why use the voltride outside of soul mode

quasi pier
#

overkill mechanics

meager forge
#

i found myself using the star more cause god it's so fucking fun to use

quasi pier
#

Star of Torment is my waifu

meager forge
#

all the weapons in ae feel powerful at least

#

even when they aren't

#

like the whisper's edge isn't too useful against big enemies but damn its equip sound is so satisfying

quasi pier
#

yeah, one of the best pros of AE is that all weapons are usefull and fun to use

light obsidian
#

star of torment is SENPAI

meager forge
#

i didn't know duskdude's scream in e3m4 was from ae either

#

shame i can't play ae on here cause this desktop sucks

#

i loaded up the game and it crashed as soon as i loaded in

topaz raven
#

btw, I haven't tried Evil difficulty. How is it? more lethal enemies? more enemies? or both? or is it like Nightmare in Doom where enemies respawn?

light obsidian
#

i think you practically die in one hit but i havent played in a good while so i don't remember.

steady bough
fringe flint
#

yeah the enemies can attack through walls

#

I also noticed and reported that the moving blocks in E2M1 can damage you through walls. I'm pretty sure they know about it already

crystal spruce
#

@topaz raven Enemies are faster, have more health and deal more damage, you get less pickups per level, souls give you less boosts to Soul Mode

topaz raven
#

I see

crystal spruce
#

I think Hard with Warrior mode is the best way to play it

fringe flint
#

remind me what warrior mode is

proper oxide
#

lose your weapons at the start of every level

fringe flint
#

oh

#

okay yeah just like starting via level select

crystal spruce
#

You lose all weapons, soul mode and start at 100 health

#

The last one means you can end a level at like 10 health and the next one you'll be at full health

tardy cove
#

Evil + Warrior + Auto soul mode is the way real warriors play

crystal spruce
#

Evil feels a bit rough at times

fringe flint
#

auto soul mode is the default right?

crystal spruce
#

It was at one point, not sure about now

fringe flint
#

it annoyed me a bit because I ended up wasting half of them

azure trail
#

Wait a minute

#

Yall made return of the triad?

tardy cove
#

Manual soul mode makes the game too easy

#

If I were Leon, I wouldn't have put it in the game, but I guess he's nicer than I am

lilac copper
#

I think the whole point of it being auto is that you try to manage when you actually get soulmode so its useful

crystal spruce
#

Auto soul mode is wasted a lot of the times

lilac copper
#

gives you an extra level of resource management so to say

#

if it was manual you'd just have it on hold and pop whenever boohoo

tardy cove
#

It's an "I win" button

crystal spruce
#

Yeah but so is the Aeturnum

lilac copper
#

cmon

#

alt fire modes for all weapons or one lousy bfg?

tardy cove
#

Not even comparable, really

lilac copper
#

I get your point but then soul mode would be a similiar bfg in a way

#

you'd just use it when you want to

#

instead of keeping track of your souls and try to fill it up at the start of a big fight or something

#

instead of just sitting on it

#

you can already sit on aeternum

crystal spruce
#

I get your point, but I just find it frustrating because most of the times I have Soul mode ready when it's like ... 2 grunts in the room or something

#

And not when I actually need it, like E6M3

lilac copper
#

yea but that's why you aint picking up all souls blindly :D

#

sure I am most of the time but if you play hardest you wanna start thinking about when you are going to have soul mode

crystal spruce
#

The game already gives you full soul in secrets and non-secrets in a few places

lilac copper
#

that means you can go and get an extra

crystal spruce
#

Maybe the whole disconnect comes from the fact that the soul modes are just too powerful

#

Star of Torment just straight out demolishes bosses

lilac copper
#

maaaaybe ;D

tardy cove
#

Exactly, hence why it should be treated as an occasional powerup and not something you could use at will

#

If you can't make full use of it, well, too bad

#

Man up and better luck next time

crystal spruce
#

Well to each their own, I just can't be bothered to micromanage fallen souls across the levels

lilac copper
#

not that much microing tbh

#

bound to get a mod for it tho after the games done

#

if there isnt one already

crystal spruce
#

What mod

lilac copper
#

manual soulmode

crystal spruce
#

Uh ...

#

That's already a thing?

lilac copper
#

as in a mod or real feature?

crystal spruce
#

A real feature

lilac copper
#

oh lol

#

didnt know that :D

#

been some time since I played. been waiting for the final release

#

thats what you get when you hop in mid convo >.>

steady roost
#

I like the gameplay of managing picking up souls more than manual soulmode though at first it threw me off

#

also means I actually use it a lot more instead of holding it forever

The enemy design being unique to each area is neat. I like the automaton monsters

when i played the forge, quicksaving didnt actually save the positions of all the moving platforms and shit

so platforming was really painful ๐Ÿ˜„

like i would stand on a suspended platform, save, reload, and then the platform is above me and im falling through the air to death

i hope thats fixed

really?

that shouldn't be

you're totally right wtf

wish someone had mentioned this earlier

@foggy garnet you mean these, right?

yea those were problematic

interesting

yeah i guess most people just dont quicksave and load mid platforming segment

I've fixed it anyway

so will be all g for release

wew last minute

it's not a real game release without last minute fixes

Simon doesn't even have Leon's email address.

Just say "Axe of the Mildly uncomfortable dark and evil place"

winged ibex
#

He just sends the models and textures on SD card through the mail.

cinder mist
#

i write out the binary code and mail it to him

winged ibex
#

Simon doesn't even have Leon's home address though so he has to mail it to Leon's friend who knows Leon's address.

#

Very inefficient workflow, not sure how they've managed to make the game with a workflow like that.

crystal spruce
#

This is why we need a "Making of" video

I bet Simon hasn't even played Fingerbones yet.

That's probably why he isn't allowed to play Amid Evil.
