I don't know if you already found this but the origin of the instant kill soap is one play tester for dusk found a bug where the soap bar did 9000 damage in response the devs "fixed" (buffed) it but making it do 1,000,000 damage "because it's funny"

DUSK had a lot of importance to me, but for a different reason. Up until 2-3 years ago, i only played stuff like mobile gacha games and occasionally Minecraft. Then one day i was watching videos about throwback shooters and the trailer for DUSK appeared in my feed. Some days later i bought the game and shook off the dust from my crappy 7 year old laptop computer to play it. I was instantly impressed, cuz i never saw a game like that. In a lot of ways, Dusk was my gateway to PC gaming, And it was what made me have interest in the fps genre. -edit cuz spelling mistakes

I like how there is a bar of soap in the final level, but you *_can't_* take it with you through the portal to final boss. I wonder if soap could kill Nyarlathotep if you were able to take it with you.

I mean, it deals 1 million damage, higher than any Boss' health in the game, so it could one shot him,but the same ending still plays, but lore wise, I think he restricted the soap because it really can kill Nyarlathotep

I got all 30 achievements six days ago! Dusk is amazing! The mutual names of the enemies of the Mama and the twins are called Cowgirls which I can tell are modeled after the Iron Maidens from Quake 2. The bulky flamethrower dudes are called Welders which make me think of a cross between the Mancubi from Doom and the Enforcers from the original Quake. The Wendigos are a inspiration throwback from the pinky's and specters from Doom and the Fiends from the original Quake!

D.U.S.K. also draws some inspirado from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (at least the Facilities chapter). The flip ability might be an homage to 'PO'ed'. 2:26 Most games misidentify assault rifles as machine guns. This game misidentifies a machine gun as an assault rifle. Granted, you use it like an assault rifle, not a machine gun, but this isn't Red Orchestra 2. 8:42 S.T.A.L.K.E.R. influence 15:58 Reminiscent of the Nihilanth battle at the end of Half-Life.

I actually enjoy the battles because some of them are actually things you'd never see coming, most obviously Big John is the most unexpected, and downright out of place for me(I'm a newbie in the Quake like genre), but all the basic monsters turned bosses or vice versa serve the same experience as the ambush encounters for me I think it's like a homage to Quake when they introduce a strong enemy type at the end of each episode or level that you'll be encountering next time Edit: My favorite bods is the Guardian, it keeps you on your toes and you heart pumping as you time the Riveter right and dodge around corners, my favorite level is Erebus Reactor because it taught me the game's version of Bhopping, and I ended up syncing my movements to the music like in the trailer

That being said, Dusk is easily a top 10 shooter of all time and I loved this game so much. Being able to hop around, somersault in midair while dual wielding shotguns and blasting possessed blood spitting cows in the face while Andrew Hulshult's amazing sound track plays is simply fantastic.

To everyone who wants something that's kinda like Dusk but just better; Play Brutal Doom, or Project Brutality. They have all these throwable objects scattered all over the map, and have an arsenal that's just as fun to use as Dusk's. And the enemy designs of these mods are so insanely good. Plus these mods add reloading to your weapons, which adds to the tactical aspect of it. And if you don't wanna replay the same old Doom map all over again, try a custom WAD in Brutal Doom, such as Alien Vendetta or Akeldama. Or even Hellbound, that's a really good Doom 2 WAD which works especially well in Brutal Doom.

I only heard of this game when Limited Run announced a physical version on pre-order last month. I immediately liked the classic blocky aspect to it and the horror theme that surrounds it is probably the games best selling point to me. Not enough games dive into the often underrated horror/Halloween themes, its one of the reasons I like older FPS games that center around that like Escape from Monster Manor and Killing Time. This game, however, looks 100x better than those two I mentioned even though the other two are still plenty of fun. The action is there, the horror theme takes center stage, the weapons look absolutely brutal and the best part? It takes absolutely 0% of itself seriously! A bar of soap is the most powerful "weapon" the game has for crying out loud, and its glorious! Needless to say, I pre-ordered the physical Switch version today alongside the new Quake remaster. I cannot wait to play this one, Dusk honestly is one of those old-school styled FPS games that's about as underrated as Shadow Warrior. If we're lucky, maybe Hexen will get a Switch port one of these days.

My only problem with DUSK is that it's not on Playstation or XBox.

I don't even know why it's not on those consoles, it has controller support and is coming to Switch.

I really didn't play many shooters in the 90s, actually I only played Doom, in PC, SNES and PSOne. I also played Heretic† and Doom II. I played a little bit of Quake (and the remaster recently) and Duke Nukem† and I think that's all. It's only recently when I have tried the genre seriously, both old and retro games (Doom 64, Blood†, Ziggurat†), as well as some modern releases (Doom 2016, Metro 1 and 2). I started playing Dusk some time ago but got destroyed in the very first room, I tried several times and I got the same results. I then changed difficulty (what the devs mistakenly call accessibility) to easier and I almost got wiped but managed to survive. Then I got stuck in the Guardian boss fight for months, even on the easiest difficulty. Am I stupid (I don't think so, I have finished all the aforementioned games in normal, except those marked with a dagger)? Is the game insanely hard? Or it's just I'm not used to WASD+Mouse? This video inspired me to try again and finally I killed the Guardian.

The story behind the soap is actually not that deep but still pretty funny. If I remember correctly, David Szymanski mentioned in his dev playthrough of DUSK on New Blood's channel that after adding the soap's bubble effect, he wanted the soap to actually do something interesting since it now stood out compared to other objects, so he gave it a damage value of 1 million just for shits and giggles.
