you're doing great! I wish you luck :3
I was wondering, what are the odds of getting earth as a spawn on the celestial claw? assuming its, using an rng system
low
it's like 1 in 256 I think
I remember it being way higher.
Yeah higher chance of it getting earth.
Are there microscopic living things on these planets you see on the celestial claw?
Wow.
Le 📬
ooh what is in the mail

I’m shipping it to countries who need it
Oh there’s another o

Thanks leon

Yes, dill_n loves thief
I see Dusk is available in Geforce Now. I hope Amid Evil is next in line. I only played the game in low details and low res and can't wait to experience it the way it was meant to be played.
Curious how dusk feels with all that extra latency
I think I found a small problem in amid
In the sacred path, at some points I used the star of torment to launch some of the flying enemies but at some points it just made them fly off the map
And that doesn't count as a kill on the killfeed if they never hit a wall
it is rumoured that enemies are still in orbit to this day, helplessly propelled by angry crystal shards
Also, where's the 13th message in pilgrim's temple?
L, developer of amid evil
Mr. L
Who you calling pinned-heads
But yeah. It seems like the second level is missing enemies in more than just the first two chapters
there's a new cheat coming that will show you where all the enemies are
it will also say if one didn't get spawned
sometimes there's just one enemy missed
leon makes a wallhack confirmed
yep lmao
Leon is a wallhack supporter! 😮
remu
Le 📫
fuck u jaab
Simon 📫
jab in the far left
By the way, with that cheat, what happens if it tells you one enemy wasn't spawned?
Will it try and spawn it back in?
oof
However your feedback is greatly appreciated

@manic dragon k
Liam why are all the weapons 2d sprites? Was there a reason for it or did y’all just put that much effort into it
The weapons are 2d sprites because leon is a tryhard who wants to be retro as possible.
which is cool but also a waste of effort.
yeah.
Not a waste if they look good
stuff is 2d because leon didnt bothered with optimization
well i mean..
thats the whole reason
they couldve made it 3d as usual and still have em look good as they're
Meh
even better tbh
it's because it looks unique
ok
Ah thanks leon
because it was faster and easier to make them 3d

we could make more that way
but the weapons could've been 3d as well..
Will coffee do?
why not?
caffeine fucks you up
usually you have enough energy
If you are a 35 year old man, then sure
But at the age of 15 relying coffee is fucking awful for your body
Its a legit drug
I drink coffee occasionally
That’s fine!
Just don’t like
Drink it every day
A girl I went to school couldn’t function without coffee
Like she would get migraines and cramps
Shits awful for you
I hate carrots.
I prefer broccoli
Can the A Real Klutz achievement be done in Arena mode?
Yeah
Ok thanks.
It's been an hour in Arena mode and I still haven't experienced the SQUISHED death type.
The SQUISHED death type is still missing for me. The enemies that throw projectiles won't grant you that death. So far none of the arenas feature environments that gets you that death message.
@night ginkgo
yeah so find it in the normal quest
Lol
You do realize that like
Most of those achievement are meant to be got from playing the, I dunno, main game?
Finished the game at this point. With all the achievements except genocider
Type "aeomg" and "aextreme" ingame, you'll get the achievement pretty quickly with cheats.
It's less about that and more that the chapters I tried going for them in, there was always at least one level that was missing enemies no matter how hard I searched
Even with aether
I'll get the testers to double check
I got it now though
what difficulty were you on
cool will check it out
Thanks
how can i see my fps without activating steam's uglyass fps counter?
AND HOW TO DISABLE AUTOSAVING?
which question are you responding to?
the first or second one.
Autosaving is annoying and takes up space.
it clogs my saving screen.
I finally have the achievement yay!
the wonders of what playing the actual game will do for you
that was me dying to a moving stone in episode 2 dummy.

I am playing the campaign!
I finished episode 1 and now playing E2M1!
Reb du mb
Ok.
Le 📪
Jab again.
He must be stopped
@night ginkgo there is another performance killer spot in forgone fortress, it's the final arena
The whole level has those parts where you turn around and just tank. Too many lights I guess? Well hope can help, I'll continue playing :)
Nice, thanks :)

he needs a Q what do you MEAN
the O was already shipped guys
I've enjoyed Pagb666's playthrough of Return of the Triad. He's probably my favorite playthrough games dude
nice
Man just spent half an hour playing it... It's like if ROTT was released later on the full Doom engine... Kudos. This first.map though has 164 enemies? Yeesh. Secrets are hard to find, too
Or I'm just not gewd haha
yeah they're pretty hard lol
automap helps a lot
there's usually a texture slightly out of place to give it away
It would kill me to find them all in Return of the Triad
I dunno how I managed in AE
granted they were a little easier for me
My oldest kid is waiting on me to finish AE so she can play it. I told her I needed to get it done first, she has far more gaming time then I do and don't want to get passed up 🤣
lmao
The level design gets better level after level!
I guess this game isn't as bad as I thought.
what level are you on
knew you were gonna laugh
in all seriousness, episode 2's level design is better than ep 1.
i guess its more linear? Dunno, but i enjoyed e2m1 way more than e1m1.
you have a long way to go, there's lots of levels

Nobody fall into this pit now
Should put some yellow tape around this
But then again the hole grows bigger every day...

Idiot
Bottle the Leon Fumes
Build the Leon mobile and take the fumes to City Hall
The new Leon collection from Lego City
Fuck
Leon has fallen into the river in New Blood City
Leon’s bloated and his fumes are about to stink up LEGO city.
Start the Lussy Sucker-
HEY
Build the Lussy Sucker and off to the Leon.
Prepare the cupper, stretch it across the Zawussy, and suck up the fumes!

Used the actual source material to write that
Sure idiot
Jesus fucking Christ
It’s really important btw

LEON PLS
who'd win a fight, dusk guy or amid evil chosen one?
Idk
tbh probably dusk dude
half his arsenal is hitscan and he can practically break the sound barrier
...then again the champion can shoot earth out of the planet blaster
so if that procs then
i mean
doesn't matter how fast he is
soul mode doesn't help if nobody else is around
doesn't matter how fast he is
you get a big enough area and it does
well if Duskdude if is at his best why can't the Champion?
i mean
duskdude's speed ain't a powerup
if we throwing powerups in then
fast fire
superhot drugs
that kinda disrespectful tho
fair point
was thinking as bunnyhopping is fair game why wouldn't soul mode come into play as well
these arguments go nowhere but I find it fun to think about
well problem with that logic is bunnyhopping is just moving in a funky way whereas soul mode you kinda need to like...find/kill shit for that
different things
Or deal damage to the boss
how would duskdude deal with an aeturnum or soul mode star of torment
more importantly
what game would they fight in!?
cause if AE than no bunnyhopping for Duskdude
and if DUSK champion can bhop, which would be terrifying with that Axe
just yeet up to him, pull and cleave him in two
Le1m

Why come out of water is such a pain? It should be simple: once on surface you jump and you are out, but not in this game
You have to look way up and continue to move forward or something like that, it's really frustrating
Just the way the game works
It used to be worse
But it’s as good as we could get it
since it seems to be an engine issue, why don't use oblique surfaces near the water to reduce the pain?
I might take another crack at it
And eat some chinese
people
Its not the unreal engine water physics its that the Champion can’t swim very well.
Ae is first person legend of zelda.

amid evil is first person heretic II
Getting out of water in the Unreal Engine has been difficult since Unreal
It surprises me how there are some engine quirks that still persist after 20+ years
yeah I notice that fortnite yeets you out of the water everytime
UE4's default character movement is great for a lot of things but for others not so much.
The "can walk of ledges" thing is kinda a disaster for instance.
No I mostly mean like, having can walk off ledges unchecked like I have it in TTR.
It feels pretty janky.
Too lazy to put invisible walls everywhere though so um hmmm.
Better than Unity's default character movement though, but it doesn't take much to be better than that.
Nah there's one for both.
I just have it on because I don't want you falling off of ledges.
happy leon day

Whats leon day

Oh Happy Birthday Leon™️
Happy birday leon
Happy Birthday, have no present for you...sigh...
i already got leon a gift
what dillon gives you when you ask him to put hands in gloomwood
@proper oxide WHAT THE FUCK LMAO
I'm sure he'd toetally like it
when's amid evil 3rd person camera view mode coming?
it's not
Does the champion guy even have a player model?
^answer that, leon.
When's Bal getting added to Amid Evil in the style of Commander Keen in Doom 2.
Okay that was probably too mean.
Sorry Bal.
oh fuck you, i deserve the original 1991 commander keen style.
You sure about that?
You really sure about that?
obviously yeah.
by that i mean the og commander keen, not doom 2's commander keen.
@winged ibex
Plot twist. The champion is just a possessed axe
When you use other weapons, the axe just pulls them out in front of it
or the entire arsenal is a bunch of floating weapons.
axe of black labyrinth actually escaped from black labyrinth
Escape From Black Labyrinth
i detect witchcraft.
someone pls mod a pixel Commander Leon in Doom 2

leon is now 40

happy leon's day
E2M3 is a great spa! I enjoyed it a lot here, the water's warm and rich with minerals, the staffs are friendly, and I got an axe for free after the day. 10/10 would come here again.
Epic gaming moment.
the hardcore achievement I meant
cool
i actually rushed thru after i got the gold key in E2M3.
skipped a hella lot of enemies to fight the boss in e2m4.
bruh
that's a message from simmo
but what happens when you call leon at 3 AM?
Im actually curious if anyone dialed that number
this starts playing and someone starts pounding on your door
Spooky.
Are you dead yet lol
I was about to start this game up but it's too heavy for 2am, started it up saw an intro and I'm like 'yeah I should do it when I'm fresh'
You cannot be fresh enough for AMID EVIL
I dev'd AE at 2am so it's ok to play it at 2am
@plucky isle my back is busted up, my hands are scarred from surgery, but I can still slay a few foul beasts

BONDING TIME
Bond with me, Patty

AHHHHHHHH
Sorry to say this but something gone terribly wrong with later levels of the game. Why there are those levels completely focused on annoying tiny platforms where you can't move and shot properly and you end falling down... This isn't fun, and I'm referring to Hexed Passage and the first two levels of The Forges (I'm at the second one right now).
Those levels are all like that, you have to keep climb and move on those tiny platforms all the time that makes every fight a chore to play (evil difficulty).
It's really disappointing, especially considering that other levels aren't like that and have a proper level design with nice arenas to fight, now it's just a mess of random spikes, enemy spawns and tiny platforms.
just wait until you get to the void lmao
LE1M3
there is a tiny line between an hard game and an unfair one. Those levels aren't hard but just badly designed.
I disagree
First person platforming isn't for everyone
The levels might be poorly designed though, haven't played it yet, just saying
you need to move in amid evil to avoid damage, if you don't have space to move around enemies it becomes trial and error because you can't improvise and move around properly then you fell down.
i dont recall any bad platforming in ae except for one punishing level in the forges but quicksaves exist
and the secret level
secret level was fine, but you progress in forges by abuse quick save too much since it's very trial and error.
🤨
What
Guys you want a leak to Leon's new game?
Well here you go
The living tombstone is preparing a song as we speak
Who
Leons favorite band
Also Evil isn’t that hard
Imagine complaining about a game being hard on its hardest difficulty 
It is when you are playing it for first tiem tho 
The Forges traps are also pretty easy to deal with.
Imagine justify every bad choice in terms of level design with "git gud" 
bosses on Evil are pretty hard if you dont have soul mode
also majority of solar solstice is done with axe of the black labyrinth 
Evil really feels like the intended difficulty as cero miedo does for dusk
Ye
I don’t think aes last levels have bad level design.
I dont think there really is that much bad level design in there. there are just parts that feel dull and thats the sacred path
I never said that the game is hard, 'cause it isn't... but if in some levels you fell down and die becuase you have to fight on tiny ass platform due to a convoluted level design, then it's not about being hard but just cheap.
And I specified the level where this is a thing. I didn't had issues with bosses too, this isn't my first rodeo on FPS guys... I specified why I have issues with those exact levels, they aren't fun for specific reasons.
I mean I’ve gotten through it fine and I’m pretty sure everyone else has. Make use of health orbs.
imagine criticizing one of the first games leon has ever created for having flaws 
I can finish the levels but it can be very trial and error, isn't fun. And orbs doesn't help when you fell down or you don't have much space to move around. Oh well nevermind, I guess I can't explain myself in english or so, I've played enough games and FPS to recognize good levels by bad one, especially since AE have both of those and the difference is night and day between some levels (for example I really liked E6M3).
That's with any game
every single game has levels that are good, and some that are not so good
i don't think he's saying the game is bad, guys
No he isn't
@crystal spruce I know, it's pacific, but you keep saying that's I'm a noob and I'm the issue, or you are just trolling me X'D
i think it's only fair that people are given a chance to criticize the games here, as long as it's done in a constructive manner
It's the only safe way to do it
while not all criticisms are valid, they're still rooted in opinions that are
I don't believe you can validate an opinion
Amidry Heavil
It's ok, I though wasn't such a scandal says that the first two levels of the forge aren't fun to play, that using random positioned spikes isn't such an elegant element of level design or that's confusing to have a sort of magma field that doesn't do any damage and then a green floor that deal damage.
I thought that those were well know issues but doesn't seem so. I will only talk about the good things and ignore the parts that should get improved, seems right.

I just started playing this game and the only time I died due to fall damage was in the very first world, I'm on the world with the fire spearmen now
I hope the developer makes a HEXEN styled game(with less switches)
you enjoying the game?
Yes
Nah the other guy was complaining about dying because of level design
There's only a few spots in the game where you can kicked off and even fewer where you get put in a cramped area with enemies if you fall
So far
you enjoying the game?
No.

Amid Evil isn't just an anagram of "Am I Devil". It's also an anagram of "I'm Valide" or "I'me Valid" or "Valid Mei" or "Valid Emi"
you are supposed to pronounce it medieval
"I valid me"
amid piss and shid
Amid Evil is awesome, but I wish it were harder
didcha find evil difficulty?
I haven't even been playing boomer shooters for very long
I did, but I decided to try my hand at Hard first
ok
to me evil felt like intended difficulty
all bosses are pretty pain if you dont have soul mode waiting
Try Evil
I have to try that, but it still seems a bit on the easy side on Evil
Still awesome tho
It does more than damage increase and speed
I have to wonder how experienced you are if you're having a hard time in Amid Evil
strange burn but alright
A lot of our games are meant to be accessible to everyone
Can’t solely focus on the hardcore players
Not a burn I'm just saying
:D
Gun just saying “fuck you” if you play on anything lower than Evil :P
I look at it like GMan
If you play on anything lower that Ultra-Violence, you're dead to me
Gman is cool peoples
Eh
pretty cringy tbh
I like his content but I disagree with a lot of what he says
Hard disagree
feels like the way he presents himself is a big crybaby. I watch him when he is doing something interesting.
Not sure how you'd get that impression
the way how he complains about certain things that are clearly git gud issues. I cant give you any one video
that guy has been around for a long time
Eh I'll give you that one
I do watch him when the title is something interesting but I disagree with him on alot of things
Sometimes the issue is less design and more skill, but I don't think he does that too often
maybe
but I dont see him being that good
besides its a single player game
but #gaming
before jab tells us
I think he has a decent understanding of the difference between bad design and needing to improve, but not always
Yeah move it to a more general channel
But yeah Back to Amid Evil
This game is so fucking awesome tho I swear
I think I might agree
I cant decide between dusk and amid evil. they tick different boxes in the end
but amid evil level design just daymn
But ae is just this grand multidimensional adventure
good weapon design too
The level design is fantastic and the arsenal is real unique
def better than dusk on that
Just the way the weapons operate gives you something to think about
you played on auto soul mode btw?
Yes
A fuckin men
That sword
also try out warrior mode if you havent. it gets preeetty dicy
I wanna marry the Whisper's Edge like I wanna marry the combat shotgun in DOOM
edge is dope. the mace is my favourite even tho nowhere near as useful
who wouldnt love impaling enemies on the walls
They all have like secondary uses too so you can use the whisper's edge for groups of melee enemies, Star of Torment is great for big dudes
really reminded me of painkiller and fear
There aren't enough weapons that let you stick fools to walls
water staff is also comfy against weak flyers
I love them and I need nailguns in everything
Star of Torment is also my favorite
Great all rounder for small groups I feel
soul mode boss wrecker
Jesus that thing is so fucking overpowered in soul mode
everything is and I love it
Turning dudes into water with the water staff
In Amid Evil, everyone can have a turn being Jesus
The thing I'm most impressed with is an FPS with actually solid boss design
thats some pretty aggressive jesusing
I could never understand why so few Shooters could cobble together a decent boss fight
and It's always been frustrating to me
What are you telling me move left or right and holding down mouse 1 to win isn’t a cool fight?
It's really not far off from shooters or arcade games in terms of how you could do it, but few people ever managed. And then they sort of just gave up trying around 2005 or so
I mean
/sarcasm
Maybe when we didn't have mouselook
game design seems to be pretty hard if you want your players to get through it. someone was asking how to escape from prison in postal 2 on another server earlier and that aint even the best example
I mean this is true, but if your design is good people can do it
sure
There's just a lot of people out there who kind of expect video games to roll over when they get in your way
I think dave and the others discussed this somewhere that intoxigator fight even tho after they moved the button to the entrance side of the pillar people still couldnt find it
yea thats true too
thats why colored lights and all that work great
green light = I need to go here
I dunno if it's just because there's so many people out there new to videogames or if because we gimped all our mechanics to shit for mass appeal, but it seems a lot of people have a hard time grappling with... parsing a game's expectations, lets say
yea its easy for us who have done this for decades on some instances.
2mins and you have a general expectation of how the game works
its pretty easy after that
Like of course there should be a switch somewhere, why would they just let you beat a boss and not let you progress?
But some people aren't gonna think that because that's that sort of metatextual understanding you pick up from playing games for forever
But then if games were more demanding of their player's mental energy, you'd have more people on the uptake, but then that might turn people away...
Like I've seen streamers and the like who have been gaming for a good number of years struggle to adapt to any game with a sort of nonstandard design or control setup, or that might generally be different from your standard first or third person affair. Makes you think that games are doing a worse job at giving people "transferrable gaming skill"
Uh... point is the bosses in Amid Evil are great and cool and more games need more Boss fights cause I want my skills tested dammit!
The Moon Guardian might be the hardest boss tbh cause those blades are hard to dodge
it is pretty hard without soulmode yea
Lmao Moon boss was 2x harder before Dave made me nerf him
yea because you actually hate us all with a burning passion
When you release the next update you should secretly buff the moon guardian
lmao
+900 hp
suffer first time players
there is an update coming soon btw
I fixed that weapon framerate thing after all these months finally
oh shit might be time to replay ae then
weapons having varying firing rates depending on the framerate - or at least that's how i understood it
my silly low end pc couldnt handle it
when you go to like 67 fps the weapons start to slow down
yeah currently there's a system that would compensate for sub 60 rates
now it's constant no matter the frames, it took some big brain
it was truly bizzare
ahhh I bet that's why I've felt celestial claw being wonky sometimes
Will the typos and clumsy english in the codex be fixed?
no
it adds to the realism that the game was made by people
ie me at 2am a few days before the game came out
We love Leon
Congrats on fixing the weapon framerate bug
I had the most trouble with the sun temple boss
Just use azure orb soul mode
protip: you can shoot the flame braziers for secret bonus souls
Who uses soul mode for bosses?
@night ginkgo That's great that you fixed that weapon speed bug! Is that also coming with the new RTX features? 👀
are you able to divulge when "soon" is?
how to not die in amid evil?
git gud
thanks man, i never knew that
time to git gud
yeah it's easy, just don't die
Instructions unclear. Died.

so the only way to not die in amid evil is to not die?
yes. I know, it's pretty unconventional

cool! I look forward to it

What's the name of the track that's playing in 'The Lost Falls'?
Shazam it
You could wait until Leon is awakened 
Yea would love to know, amazing track
@normal maple The track is named Obelisk. It also plays in E3M1 if I'm not mistaken
Ah yea, sorry I wasn't specific, I meant during fights, the track changes to something more dark
It's the same track. Each track has different sections.
Oh okay, I'll look for that then, thank you.
Yea you're absolutely right, its the 3/4 way through obelisk. Man it's epic
anyway to play on other difficulties on the main quest with the rtx beta?
AEleon cheat allows you to go back to the hub, but I assume it's just default difficulty
when you go to the hub you can go back thru the difficulty portals
ah okay, thanks
if you want to know what difficulty you're on hit tab a few times
👍
LE1M6
Finished the forge and hated any minute of it :'D (the boss was super abusable btw, really easy if you staid between the two pipe buttons).
Now I'm at solar solstice and I'm really liking it, big arenas with a lot of enemies.
I'm abusing of the axe since the shielded enemies that deflect bullets.
Only played two levels of it but it's how AE should be for me. The only issue i had is regarding performances, that tanks really badly, even to the 50ish fps in the second level.
I think it's always due to the lights, maybe @night ginkgo can take a look on it? Those are the spots
There is actually a performance update coming
Idk when but Leon’s been working on it

Gotcha. Maybe it will be useful for a second run with rtx :'D
Btw I've appreciated the rounded surface near the water, wish was the same for the rest of the game xd
Woudl anyone mind explaining how the resolution scaling option works in the video settings? Or perhaps there is a guide or documentation to look at for it? Curious what he advantage of using it is over just lowering the resolution for instance.
Oh I see, so this is actually a UE4 feature. It just changes what the actual in game objects render resolution while keeping whatever window/full screen size you specified with the resolution
Tons of games have resolution scaling
i wonder if amid evil (and UE4 by extension) do that BF5 ray tracing thing where only parts of the screen that cannot use screen space reflections get ray traced reflections instead
@gloomy comet that area is running at 200 fps for me at 3440x1440, im not sure why it's only running at like 90fps for you
I was using the i7 4770k (no OC) with the rtx 2060 at 2560x1440, epic details. During the fights slowed down to 60-70fps, while the arena of the second level of solar solstice even at 50fps.
No issues in the forge on this terms, it seems that it really struggles on big arenas.
I forgot, what's your PC? @night ginkgo
In the background of an interview stream thing that leon was in, I saw a 9900K box, so I would assume he is using one of those, and maybe a nice 20 series card to go with it
I was getting over 150 FPS on a 7700K and 1060
that's what I would expect
and a 4770K isnt that much worse
@shadow seal on that level and that arena? The game performances arr extremely variable
One level is 120fps (with cap, some slowdown to 110) and some tanks badly
The other time we saw a similar issue was an unoptimized spot. My pc is always the same, maybe some tweak is needed here too, since your pc is a beast compared to mine Leon
I mean, i can do the test again with my other pc with i5 3570 and 1060 but I'm sure I'll have the same result.
Maybe yhe GOG build is the issue? Only thing i can think about...
I mean, i report this for others at this point since I'll finish the game anyway in this days. But yeah, i hope the patch will help because the game deserve better performances for sure.
you're pretty much the first person to mention it
I'll be sure to give it a go as well, cause I had issues running 144hz consistently on my GTX 1080 and i7-4790K but I'd always suspected it was my system not being up to it instead of the game
if we can find someone with the same specs then would help to know if it's pc specific
you did?
I've used two different pc, same issues. Maybe ppl doesn't care to report those issues?
bobby any particular areas etc?
Asked my fried with the 970 and an i7 and had same issue on that level
aye I mentioned it before in voice, I just capped it to 100hz and never experienced drops below that
Ill ask to try again this level too
ahh just in big fights really
most specificly the 3rd horde map
but the first one ran flawless at 144hz maxed out
I mean, i can play any other game st the performance i aspect with my pc, i do benchmark and everything and it's on par with the data. My pc is fine
the night time horde map?
ye
also the indoor one works perfectly at 1440p 144hz
alternatively I tried lowering the resolution to 85% with no filtering and that works
but in the campaign it varies
should run a benchmark with MSI and send you the results for these
Tried with the other pc (i5 3570 and 1060) and i got the same performance at 1080p (which is on par with other games performances between the two PCs if you look online, most of 2060 resources are eaten by 1440p).
90fps after killing all enemies
Huge battle at 50-70fps
Game performe always at the same way.
take in mind that same arena PREkilling is 120 fps, then it remains stuff on screen and it tank to 90. During the fight it was pretty bad. I think major culprit are particellar effects, like the one released by enemies for example
or the staff weapon, that is heavy on performance in those cases
especially if you use the alt fire ability
rtx build on my end works weird
it locks itself to 60
unless i look directly at the ground
no matter what
RX580, both in game and in gpu drivers
like a radeon rx580?
does nvidia have rx580?
I have no idea if it's supported
leon smh not knowing hardware stuff
NVIDIA RTX and some GTX series cards with DXR support using the latest device drivers.```
apparently it's nvidia only atm
im not talking with RTX features, only RTX build of the game acts weird with the framerate
wait for the next build

How does the combat feel in amid evil
Ever play heretic?
No, I think the only first person melee games I ever played were like Skyrim and oblivion
Was heretic by id
Have you played any retro fps?
Like quake and doom? Yes
Still shooting tho?
AE is a shooter lul
the axe is a pretty niche weapon
you mostly use it to conserve ammo
So it’s really similar to dusk, just thematically different?
Yes
Oh wow, alright
He’s right you know
gud
Here I am again with another weird report for @night ginkgo ^^
This is Tower of Light with everything at Epic (it drop like that only when you face the arena in the middle with the 3 big enemies)
At that point I've messed up with graphic and saw that shadow are the culprit in this case, so everything at Epic and Shadow at low and got this
As soon i even put shadow at medium it drop to 70 again
I've tried the big arena of the Illuminati complex but in that case it doesn't change that much what graphic settings are you using.
So yeah, I have no idea what's happening here, I'll just leave it there, maybe can help.
Ahhhhh okay
Maybe the game on gog is broken but nobody knows because everyone play on steam xd?
Possibly
GOG doesn’t drive sales
We do know of a few frame rate dropping areas though and there’s gonna be a patch
Not sure if the ones you just reported are some of the ones in the works
Yeah defo just keep reporting them as they come up. It’s up to you if you want to but if you want to compile all the areas with problems and throw it up as a post in the steam discussion, it’ll be easier for us
It's this specific spot of course, I'm not saying it's the whole game likr that, but there are those spots where the game lose half of the framerate, pretty insane.
Ok, ill think about doing that !
We read everything (and I mean everything) in the steam forums
Plus it doesn’t get buried like it does here
Amid evil is too ancient for my gun-loving lousy ass.
I better finish this game before I end up having a mental breakdown in desperation for a rifle.
Phases of Bal:
Haha AE like heretic very cool :)
AE look like pooop even tho I only play endless!!!! >:(
Nvm ae look cool because I actually played it :)
The weapons could look better if they were models :((((
Y can’t I complete the game in endless???????????
And finally, AE NO GUN VERY POOOP >>>>>:(
Stay tuned for the next riveting installment of Phases of Bal
AE NO GUN VERY POOOP
Sometimes I like magic, but most of the time I prefer guns.

Finished! I really liked the Void, and yes, it had some strange platform sections but gladly you don't die here and you can actually use the "teleport" to do some tricky moves with the enemies (so no @bleak geyser#5220, I didn't hated).
The ending boss is reeeaally spongey, so basically I keept spamming BFG with alt fire actived. It was a cool boss but it would have been funnier if you had to actually damage him by using the same weapon color that he was using. So less spongey but more puzzley, if you get what I mean.
Before that I completed The Sacred path and I really liked it, even if it was too easy (it has those huge areas that deserved more enemies <3 but yeah, I see that's supposed to be the third episode so I get it).
Other then being a bit too easy overall I really enjoyed the game. At this point you just need to fix those performance issues and remove The Forge from the game :'D
Did you find the secret way to beat the void
remove The Forges reee
Yo, the Forges is a great chapter. You just need to git gud, son.
I loved the forges
He skipped mission 6
Void clan baby
@bright jetty no, what's that?
@tardy cove naa I'm totally ok, those levels have zero flow.
I think it’s cool how everyone has an episode they don’t like
I personally find episode 2 to be very bland
Ep5 is smelly.
will Amid Evil join Dusk on GeForce Now?
that might be my only chance of playing it with RTX
thats out of our hands for the most part. Nvidia adds support for games based on user request
I know dusk and amid evil both work on Nvidia shield
I finished AE on normal and I really liked it. Unfortunately I couldn't maintain a solid 30 fps, most likely due to my laptop and intel 5500 graphics card. I really want to do a hard or evil playthrough, but I'm planning on waiting for the performance patch.
||also why no gun shoots?????? it fps but no shoot? were gun? >:C||
because enchanted weapons are cooler than guns
:C
Real talk though: If Indefatigable can pull of duskworld kind of arena game mode, I'd be hyped as heck.
I wanna shoot boys with some planets
no multiplayer is planned for amid ebil
oh, then game BAD >:C F-
@olive apex man, I really don't know how you played this at 30fps... controller I guess?
Nope! If you think about it, a lower fps means you're sort of playing in slow motion. Plus it was normal mode, it wasn't too bad.
the platforming was really the only issue
narrow platforms and jumping were my bane
man, that would me got sick... and no, doesn't mean slow motion but only less information XD
I play at 30fps on console, but on PC with m+k... nope, never.
I mean sub 30, so I was closer to 20-something
that's crazy :'D
which wasn't great, I wish I could get a higher rate, but oh well!
@gloomy comet I’ll give you a hint. There’s a much easier way of completing the level
ok @tall temple , thanks. I shall request it
LE1M9
what if I were to...
I would repost it
so I could perpetually keep you at m9
