Weapons you would like to see more in video games.

Pic related. Made for breaking bones with precision and piercing through helmets.

Spears. I want fucking spears. Spears are why I liked Dark Souls so much.

Even though they sucked.

>Not being a agile mother fucker and constantly poking people and never getting hit

A good spear user is one of the most annoying people to fight. He didn't need to stun me or 2 hand his weapon. Over time there was no way I could keep healing. People really underestimate spears.

Also I really wanted this in Dark Souls.

Billhooks of both sorts. Such a widely used weapon throughout history, but very rare in video games. There's one in Chivalry: Medieval combat, but that's about it.

Lots of different billhooks too. I like Yorkshire style myself.

I'm with you on that.

Also polearms in general.

the mother fucking halberd

still remember the one from age of chivalry, basically sniping the heavy armor units with the spear end, hit every thing else with the axe.

problem heavy knights?

im a simple man with simple tastes, more games need fighting staves. so far dark messiah has done them the best.

Katanas used properly. In most games (outside of some fighters) they use them like straight swords which is retarded.

Why doesn't Bushido Blade 3 exist yet?

if a game used katanas properly, they would be sheathed 90% of the time.

Go play spear combat the game if you haven't already.

I'd like to see more magic books like the ones Charlotte uses in Portrait of Ruin. Don Quixote lets you hit people with the titular character and the weapon strategy books project all kinds of axes and swords. It's a pretty great concept.

There are weaponized scythes. AFAIK, they just have the blade parallel to the body instead of perpendicular.

Of course it's a farming tool, but it has SOME use as a weapon as all pointy things do. Obviously it would be better with the head parallel to the haft, but then it might as well be called a fauchard.

Didn't stop Mair from developing a basic fighting system for it though.

this.

>>158124118

lmao nice graphics bro ill be over here enjoying war of the roses which doesnt look like a shitty game from the 90s

I actually think slowing down the combat improved it considerably. It makes people at least consider fighting for real instead of just clickspamming. The incredibly superior netcode helps, too.

But the Japanese fencing system was pretty much identical to the German school of fencing. The main difference being that katanas lack a crossguard and so there's much less emphasis on the bind. You shouldn't be upset about something you know so little about.

Most definitely spears.

Though I dislike games that force spears into a two-handed category and not 2h or 1h w/ penalties. Unfortunately long ago, in a distant past, Morrowind (and Samurai Jack) had me hooked on an agile, spear-wielding battlemage
