>>714998318
Is it fun to use? I'm doing a replay of Bloodborne soon. I used the greataxe and the UGS last time, and this time I want a fun new build

>>714997528 (OP)
>The most iconic vidya weapon of all time
I would argue it's not even a competition but I'm sure there's a big one I'm missing.

>>714997528 (OP)
Ahem...

>>714997528 (OP)
I don't think that's even remotely true

>>714998258
In DeS it straight up passed through shields. In DS1 it did pure magic damage and had S INT scaling. It used to be buffable in 2, but now it's just powerful instead of totally broken. In DS3 it had an extra, pretty underrated move. It's great in all the games, especially given greatswords are already a good weapon class

>>714998678
It's this or the buster sword

>>714997528 (OP)
I don't even know what game that's from

>>714997668
MLGS is easily a top 5 weapon in bloodborne, and that's high praise in a game where every weapon is good.

>>714997528 (OP)

>>714998876
There are only 5 weapons in Bloodborne so yeah.

Frostmourne

>>714998914
Reminder that this isn't even Cloud's sword, he just stole it from Zack.

wrong

>>714998515
Yup, the magic damage is quite good if you've got the right build. The projectiles need quicksilver bullets but they come out very quick since you don't need to do a fully charged attack to fire them. The actual L2 skill is a big thrust with AoE.

>>714998914
This weapon has such an ugly shape, it looks like a toddler drew it.

Objectively speaking, Master Sword is the most iconic, whether you like it or not.

>>714997528 (OP)
If its so iconic why do i not know what it is?

>>714999437
>Moonlight sword

I hate zoomers.

>>714998914
i like this version i hate how they put greeble on it's newer designs

>>714999642
Yes, it is known for its appearances in souls games. It's even less iconic in mech game #4658.

>>714997528 (OP)
ahem

>>714999716
well it was derivative of Dragon Slayer...
>the original hunk of iron wielded by an edgelord.

That said I kind of liked the idea of the odd multiblade version in advent children because it played into some of the odder stuff cloud would pull off in game.

there was just something really cool about multiple blades that interlock like a technomagic puzzle.

A pity.

is elden ring any fun or is it just a maximalist busy work simulator like it seems to be to me? the last souls game i played was 2

>>714998651
This definitely isn't the most iconic of all time. Iconic sure I guess, but in all of vidya of all time? No, no way.

Why all the seething replies?

if its so iconic then how come I never even used one in any darksouls game?
they hide it away somewhere and its not even worth finding, you call that iconic. your basic-ass zweihander is more iconic

spears and halberds are cooler anyway

>>715001250
Kneeling would suffice

>>715001303
OP is incorrect.

>>715001287
play a mage with a few low requirement melee weapons, then it's decently fun

>>714997528 (OP)

They don’t even understand the importance beyond what some YouTube video essayist told them

none of you zoomer /v/edditor niggers have, because you're subhumans who don't even play videogames, fuck off

Armored Core Moonlight is the best version. Note I am not talking about AC6 moonlight, which is only okay.

>>715000406
as much as i hate to admit it he's not wrong, minecraft sword is probably like top 3 most iconic weapons at this point

>>715001291
>Iconic sure I guess, but in all of vidya of all time? No, no way.
A simple red crowbar placed in a game is immediately understood as a half life reference. That's extremely iconic.

Before Elden Ring got rid of weapon durability completely, the wave effect would degrade the weapon considerably. Nothing too annoying, you just had to repair it with souls, but it put a hard limit on its uses as a ranged weapon.

Elden Ring's system is a good take on the sword, but I will admit I was hoping to see a version in teal show up in SotE.

Not even, it automatically repaired when resting at a bonfire. That's why the DS3 version was the best, since the ranged attacks didn't consume any FP or Quicksilver Bullets.

That’s not an AK

>>715005710
I'm pretty sure that's 2 forward, in DeS and DaS you had to get your shit fixed, and in DaS they introduced the various bonfire boxes, that let you repair and (mostly) upgrade your weapons and armor from the bonfire. Until you buy that shit you have to talk to a smith like andre or the shithead dragon school guy in new londo, forget his name, I think it was a berserk reference.

>>714999334
its literally just a giant eel knife which is perfect for killing the midgar zolom

The logical answer would be Cloud's sword or the portal gun.

The REAL answer though is the Diamond Sword.
Even WWII veterans would see this icon and know exactly where it came from.

>>714997528 (OP)
It has to be picrel or the Master Sword, right?

Gravity Gun

>>714999053
By that logic, it's actually Angeal's sword that Zack stole.

In terms of sheer power:

But ER version is a boring one trick pony. DS1 and BB versions are by far the most fun to use.

As if.

>>714997528 (OP)
You don't have to like this fact, but it's the master sword.

>>714997528 (OP)
False. The most iconic vidya weapon of all time is Mario's big stinky feet.

why are zeldatrannies so delusional? nobody under the age of 40 knows what the master sword is.
3 hits and it breaks btw.

if your weapon gets surpassed in power by another sword in the same game, it doesn't count. Buster Sword and Master Sword get obsoleted quickly.

TO BE tbhnest, in the snouls games it's just another weapon of no real repute, while in the king's sneed games it's actually an important weapon on the same level of prestige in universe as the master sword, it's actually part of the story every game and you're expected to use it eventually (except kf2 but even in kf2 ofc there's that exploit for it)
basically seethe

>>715001471
I dont play games that came out before I was born

>>715011608
God and The Old One are the same thing, thus the source of Miracles and Sorceries is the same.

>>715005701
i just wanna know what it tastes like

>>715011792
Bloodborne gave it more significance tho. You just stumble upon it in kf.

>>714997528 (OP)
Sure, if you ignore the Master Sword.
And Soul Edge
And Halo's Energy Sword
And the Portal Gun
And the Buster Sword
And the Keyblade
And the Ass Creed Hidden Blade
and more things I don't feel like listing

>>714997668
I've used them in every FromSoft game I've played, and honestly it's a fun weapon in all of them aside from DeS where it just kind of works like a normal Greatsword, but tbf DeS doesn't have fun weapons.

>>715012120
in kf1 it's the final quest reward and intended to be the only way to kill the final boss, in kf2 it's literally what the entire story revolves around, kf3 it's a central part of the story, kf4 i haven't played yet so idk
i haven't played bloodborne but in the souls games and elden ring it certainly didn't have the same level of importance

>>715008147
Ahsbringer is overrated and always looked like a lame fisher-price toy.

Agreed.

>>714998876
>and that's high praise in a game where every weapon is good.
Bloodborne, Like most of Souls games, suffers from the " the starting weapon is the best weapon" syndrome.

the trick weapons are cool and everything but good? they are average, cool looking but that's it.

MLGS is a beast tho.

The MLGS is older than most people on this board.

>>714997528 (OP)
It's 1 of 4; Master Sword, Buster Sword, Keyblade or Diamond Sword. There are just that many zooming. Maybe the portal gun is also worth mentioning. Although I'm personally very partial to Nightmare's Soul Edge desu

The fucking Claymore, Whirlgig, and Saw Cleaver are more iconic than the Moonlight Greatsword.

absolutely goddamned not

>>715020465
Claymore, Zweihander, Balder Side Sword, Drake Sword, Saw Cleaver. NO ONE fucking uses the MLGS.

It is quite fun, but you also have to be the type to enjoy wandering around on your own and doing stuff of your own volition.
You have to like the gameplay itself to enjoy it, mostly.

I'm doing a playthrough as an INT spell blade with a spear and a stave, and it is pretty fun right now and I have a lot of flexibility on how I tackle problems.

Only time I didn't use it was in 3, don't remember why; thought it was because you need to be in ng+ to get it, but that's wrong.

I love them all. Too bad it's not very good in Demon's Souls. For all the shitty things the demake did, the moonlight greatsword looks good in it.
