Blade and Sorcery's New Update is Incredible

[@doommachine4873]

Hopefully Habie sees this because one very critical thing not in the video that solidifies his hope for crystal hunt is that there is now an inventory system. More importantly that inventory system is split into 4 sections: Consumables (health potions, apples, or possibly more potions in future), Tools (things like the torch or zipline tool thing), Miscellaneous (kind of self explanatory) and valuables (probably where the crystals we’re hunting for are gonna go). Both misc and valuables have no use in the current stage of the game but clearly show they’re preparing for the release crystal hunt.

[@KyBee_Not_a_bee.]

You can store buckets, and books, and other well, misc in the misc section. But yeah valuables doesn't have a use from what ive been testing.

Hey, Baron here; producer for Blade and Sorcery. Damn, this was a really lovely video. Warpfrog team watched it and were laughing about the doors. Stev from the Warpfrog team who made the doors is very pleased, lol. For the Crystal Hunt mode, yes it's coming! U11 was adding a lot of system frameworks that the mode is gonna need, so we are getting here slowly but surely haha. We gotta go over the roadmap and assess the damage the U11 beta delays did to it. Possibly the final update (U12) will be split into two parts if the roadmap damage was severe enough, which it probably was. Which means U12 might become a smaller intermediary update (what U11 was supposed to be lol) and then a new U13 will then become the final. Hopefully we will know this plan soon! 7:09 our great shame... 😔 Thanks again for this video!

Right now they are either “totally fine, can fight normally” and “dead.” If I cut an enemy’s achilles tendon and stab them in the knee, I want to see them on the ground, non-hostile, and begging for mercy while lamenting the pain they are in. If would open up RPG opportunities to have non-lethal fights as a good guy or be a merciless killer as a bad guy. Like Habie has pointed out before, right now the game forces us to kill the NPCs, even when they are defenseless because the moment we don’t they just find a weapon and keep fighting.

The best part of this game is that instead of banning mods and modders, as well as getting rid of any form of modding the game like most Triple-A companies do for single-player games, they have used and showcased mods since pre-U6 not just that, but they have hired a Burt load of modders to the team, this makes me smile, because not only does it encourage you to download mods (ranging from ridiculously overpowered weapons and spells, to simple QoL mods that improve immersion and gameplay) but it also shows the extreme community support for this game.

That telekinesis Feature against enemies was there before, I use that when I play a Sith with the Star Wars Mod. Also, if you use the other hand to grip the head as well as the leg and push one bodypart away and pull the other towards you, then you can rip the persons head or leg off 😁

[@Chrisbrei2502]

Its been there since u9 at the very least since that's when I got the game and thought Gravity spell only pushed people and was useless.

Dude... Gravity magic has been in the game for years. And you evidently haven't seen the relatively new doors in H3VR. Those blow that door out of the water. They latch, there's double doors, you can beach the deadbolt and latch or just blow the hinges off and knock it down, or get primal and tear the whole thing to pieces with a chainsaw or explosives. THOSE are the greatest doors in VR.

[@sweatymilk8590]

I agree H3VR has way better doors, but going by this video Habie don't know how to set something to active beta or read patch noted for that matter. So he probably has no idea they are even in that game, also they are still very early access in H3 and i think it will be a while till Anton is done with those. Still, I do agree with you on this one though.

[@jaysondoster9729]

@@sweatymilk8590 Yeah I haven’t tried a blunt weapon I suppose. True they’re definitely not perfect but most things in H3 aren’t. Lol to be fair about the handgun part, that’s basically impossible irl so Anton likely made it that way on purpose. Shotguns work mostly because they just shred the wood around it. A regular projectile isn’t gonna do much but bounce off. Either way I’m just glad Anton keeps adding cool stuff and details like that.

[@aspiringadonis1253]

Habie, there is a setting to slow the time slow down even further, putting it at 15 percent and using the gravity spell to fling enemy's away and towards you to punch/slap said enemy midair is especially fun.

I would love if they would add an neck snapping mechanic to the game, sometimes I lose all my gear and have to use my strength to kill the enemies.

[@ChickenBeter]

If you are on pc blade and sorcery, there are 2 mods for standalone neck stabbing and a combat overhaul named sectors with bone breaking, bleeding, live dismemberment, neck snapping, and more

[@APRBaller]

@@ChickenBeter Sectory might be the single best mod for B&S, it makes the game so much more enjoyable than it already is. Not only all that you mentioned but a complete A.I. overhaul with enhanced mechanics and the ability to train the A.I. itself. The creator is also in the process of updating and reworking everything into a brand new mod called Total Game Overhaul, so I would be on the look out for that as well. If you have a copy of B&S on PC you’re severely doing yourself a disservice by not having Sectory installed, ha ha.

Also some things I learned either the new update is you can combine the two lightning balls and when they are full and can pull apart and create a beam of lightning as well with the fire and telekinesis ability. The fire creates multiple fire balls going at people and they are extremely accurate and the purple one creates and giant orb that lifts people up and makes them super easy to move

[@vexron5872]

3:26 thats been around for quite a long time, can't remember exactly, but it was around U7-9 I think. An entertaining thing I do is hold onto their neck with both hands in the air and use both the gravity push and pull at the same time. Game just doesn't like you after a bit and when you let go they usually spilt into 4 parts and go flying...or their head pops off and goes to orbit. (Also A later feature i'd love to see (used to be a mod) is being able to snap necks, or break bones in general with enough force).

[@thewower50]

theres a mod for that

[@williamburns7668]

The mod for bone systems and all that stuff you want is called sectory and is currently updated for U11, works great and is fully configurable

[@puppymaster075]

So something I love about the new update is that you can equip the lightning spell, grab an enemy and electrocute them.

[@LeehamLeem]

Fun fact about the gravity magic. If you grab two separate limbs and pulll in opposite directions you can rip the limbs off whilst they're still alive

[@Sm0lPerson]

The armour self collision sounds aren't just "Attention to detail" but are funtional, it doesn't clink for fanciness it clinks because it's actually doing what armour is meant to do. Wearing armour doesn't give you a defense stat boost, you're now jsut wearing armour that functions. Wear full plate, it will save you a lot.

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

[@themilkman6969]

the game isnt the average vr “me shake controller hand go crazy”, the player hand is physics based and has collision (mostly to prevent gorn-style wibbly-wobbly sword gameplay, and also adds weight when holding specific weapons)

[@planning9930]

I could come up with a few game modes like a thief one were you have to sneak threw a building at first as like a tutorial and then like an entire fort or village that’d be cool, and then the obvious fighting like a medieval battle with like ai on your side and ai against you. That one being really simple the best way I could see this game evolving into would be basically kingdom come deliverance in vr. As that’s one of my favorite role playing games of course other than Skyrim or the fallout games. But mostly because it’s raw medieval combat and the physics are top notch plus the sorcery to mix up the same same feel any other medieval game could have you could fight warriors that wield magic against you there are so many possibilities. Personally to wrap this up I think an open world story or even a more linear story would be amazing whether it’s taking forts single handedly with your weapons or magic or stealing this and that to buy better gear this game could easily become a staple of vr like beat saber or saints and sinners or Pavlov it could get mainstream attention and make vr an every household kind of thing and not just an expensive hobby with the requirement of a pc obviously I’m reaching a little bit with all this but it really could bring attention to this way of gaming and make people take it more seriously than it currently is. You either love vr or you’ve never tried vr that’s the problem with the vr scene right now. Sure you can play a couple cool games on quest without a pc and that’s neat and all but is it worth 200-300 dollars to person you told about. And then the pc route is expensive and your only gonna play big vr games on a pc like half life Alex fallout 4 Skyrim Pavlov and you could play those for a good while but you’re eventually going to want more. An original story with a world you can immerse yourself in. Were weapons have weight and you can interact with the world without phasing threw any of it. Were you pick up a blade drop it from above on someone and it doesn’t just flop on the ground but do what you thought it would do. Have that child like wonder of how this interacts with that because that’s how the real world works it’s what vr is really for. Maybe not for learning anything but being in and being apart of a different world that’s not our own. What a rpg is. What dnd is. Looking at Skyrim you can really see the dnd aspects of here’s a house should I go in and loot it or here’s raiders should I fight them and take there stuff it’s perfect for when it came out. Mods kept it alive to today and probably could forever but our gaming experiences are changing even if ever so slightly from a board game with dice to a keyboard and mouse analog controller to a vr headset and controllers that sense your fingers placement. Eventually full body tracking and gloves you can physically feel the gloves and a little platform you move on moves you in game is gonna be a standard of vr gaming and not a small home loan. Kinda just how I’m feeling on vr right now it’s just an expensive hobby that in the near future I see being more and more for the average consumer. Just like a Tesla car or flying bikes the future is a lot closer than we think so this game getting to a full release is possible even if it takes another ten years it could happen.

[@bowldawg4394]

Staffs also all have different effects for when you slam them on the ground or press/hold the spell button for them, where the fire staff could only shoot fireballs, the gravity staff could only gravity slam, and the lightning staff had no functionality before U11. Using magic only is overpowered now, but loads of fun, now that it's a whole lot more fleshed out now that every magic and staff has full functionality.
