I hate this

funny thing is i was watching a random interview from the E33 director and he said this

>Best weapon in the game can only be obtained from stealing it from a boss
>Steals have common and rare item pools and you can only get one steal of a singular item per battle
>Best weapon is a 1% rare steal

>best weapon in the game is a marriage gift from your wife

>best weapon in the game is based on a timer timelimit that starts when you start the game

>best weapon in the game isn't unlocked until the end and is basically only useful for NG+
>NG+ is literally the same exact game but enemies are slightly stronger

>best weapon in the game is upgraded form the starter weapon you threw away 30 minutes into the game

I loved how Ast Libra handled that. NG+ was the actual meat of the game and plot. And the weapon didn't matter since you could strengthen anything you liked the most.

why do you need the "best" weapon?

>strongest weapons are locked behind conditional drops from boss fights
>bosses also respawn every 2 in-game weeks so nothing's missable

>Best weapon in the game is a starting option and heavily outclasses everything
>Best weapon in the game is level scaled
>Best weapon in the game is made via a broken crafting system

>Transmog system locked until you've beaten the game

>best weapon in the game is locked in an invisible chest
>chest has a very small chance to spawn
>chest has a high chance to contain trash and a small chance to contain an item
>actually, there are two pools of items, and chests contain second pool of items only by wearing a specific accessory
>second pool has an even higher chance of containing trash and even lower chance of containing an item (best weapon)
>there is a cryptic hint about invisible chest's existence, but only in JP version

>best weapon is one you can craft yourself
I love this trope
