What's your vidya Swordfu, anon?

>>724611091 (OP)
ngl, I think the saber on TLoZ title screen is kino. we need more sabers.

>>724611091 (OP)
I don't really have one.
But a long time ago I found this Legend Sword from Alundra really appealing,
it still looks pretty cool.

The Oblivion one too.

>>724611091 (OP)
Love dark repulser. Elucidator is slightly cooler (heh) though. SAO has some legitimately good sword designs

>>724611091 (OP)
>>724612026
maturing is accepting that SAO was the peak of its time and spawned 4 other whole main genres

Imagine being able to modify EVERY FUCKING swing.
Why don't more games do this?

just give me a stack of +5 daggers and the longsword will hardly ever come out

>>724611091 (OP)
The Moonveil is THE coolest sword in vidya and I'm tired of pretending it's not

>weeb aesthetics and animations
>varied moveset, melee and mid range
>weapon art is actually strong, will carry you through the game
>god tier sound effects
>god tier particle effects

Sword that shoot projectiles with a swing is the single coolest concept in melee combat and I wish more games did it.

>>724612917
A pale imitation of the original

>>724611091 (OP)
steel centipede from salt & sanctuary
the combos with a pistol in the offhand made me feel so cool

>>724612908
I love it. I want one IRL, looks fun to swing. Not too long. Too bad I never got past the first few hours of TP.

>>724611091 (OP)

>>724612870
Amazing.
You posted all the wrong Moonlights.

>>724614137
AC moonlight should look more like a Greatsword not a curved sword

>>724611193
reddit the weapon

the messer

I like the idea of rune blades in general.

>master sword becomes cool runeblade with scars in totk
>but it still turns into whatever you fuse to it when you slash
Made me BIG mad.

>>724614641
Its not that big of a deal.

the souls longsword

>>724611439
The only correct choice.

I don't have a pic right now but the oblivion silver sword.
Those curls.
The engravings.
The black sheathe.
Hnggg

>swords
gross, impersonal, generic
>fist
Now this, this we can work with
>claw
Yes, this is it, this is gaming

There's only one true answer.

>>724611091 (OP)
Simple but ornate, and I loved it as a kid thanks to the shade of blue.
Sadly its hard to get a flattering pic of it on tis own become the model in proportion to the character models makes it look better.

Demonic/Evil Swords are where its at

>>724614479
you posted mine

The Rune2h from RuneScape Classic will always have a special place in my heart.

>>724614939
that's literally the best looking sword in all of wow's history, better than thunderfury and frostmourne to me, and it's a fucking mage sword in the first raid

>>724614479
>>724615030
>Death Knight
>are actually more like Frost Knights
...I don't get it.

>>724615123
Cold is the grave...

Huh, I don't have a favorite sword. I think maybe Brotherhood or >>724611439
Hard to say

the sword used by the god cutter style in armed with wings 3 lives in my head rent free

>>724614830
You might have had a point if you posted the actually good claw weapon, beast claws are dogshit sperg weapons.

>>724612478
Always completely unapologetically loved SAO since I read a fan translation back in 2007-2008 whenever right before the anime was announced

>>724615313
But its COOL and thats all that matters

I'm not sure what my favorite vidya sword is. I like different types of weapons for different types of archetypes I'm going for or playing in the game.
But I basically have 2 main types of favorites.
>Dark/Demonic/Evil sword that has lifesteal
Or
>curved sword in the shape of a Kriegsmesser, Kilij, Katana, Dao anything curved really that has high crit
Of course a big fucking sword is also cool and since I can't make up my mind; I'll just say Fierce Deity Sword.

>>724615434
are there any good novels to fill the sao shaped hole in my heart

>>724615715
Have you read SAO Progressive?
It starts off really strong and fizzles out into okaygood

>>724611091 (OP)
it just works

A classic

>>724614302
This one I will buy someday, the kriegsmesser video of skallagrim sold it to me very well.

I have some 20 axes in my collection but What I really what is a this, a poleaxe. I'll probably forge one someday when I get better at smithing.

Those scimitars Muslims use to behead fags with are pretty cool

>>724615715
Read the Honzuki no Gekokujou LN.

>>724612269
Skyward sword ruined this weapon and then botw and totk made it gay as fuck

>>724616483
Fi was hot and was a childhood crush of mine.

>>724616425
ok
never seen novels this big tho

>>724616692
It's my favorite LN of all time, it took me 3 months to read. There are some 35,000 pages. Have fun.

>>724614641
fusing a fire or frozen talus heart to it is fucking sick as fuck though.
You pleb.
same for the construct cores

>>724614830
> anon uses the pathetic Beast Claws

Disgusting. Man up and excercise your right to Bear-Arms. They do more damage, and have a hilariously overpowered weapon skill that gives 500 free poise for some reason.

>>724616908
They look lame

>>724614972
Based and Soul Edgepilled

D's Longsword

The Executioners Greatsword in Dark Souls 3
>looks fucking cool
>blunt damage and almost everything is weak to blunt in Dark Souls 3
>kills gives 6fp
>as long as you're smart, you can slowly progress and keep yourself healed and never have to use a single estus, using the FP to constantly heal yourself
>looks fucking cool
>get it extremely early on and is good the entire game

>>724611091 (OP)
For me, it's the Necrotic Sword of Doom

Lothric Knight Sword

I like basic knight swords. I don't need some ultra fancy shit.

>>724614479
>two crossguards
Why?

>>724618694
They seem to be more like a zweihander's lugs to me.

Outstanding game. One of the best games ever. 2d souls > 3d souls.

i love you in everey univererse

>>724611091 (OP)
I wish the sword designs in later games didn't fall into the MMO design trap.

>>724614302
I’m gonna cum

>>724614739
This one.
I need it.

I really like transforming swords

I love Bloodbornes Holy Moonlight.

It looks like a basic and simple large sword. Has a nice simple moveset. Then you change it to the Holy Moonlight and it has a completely new moveset.

God this takes me back to weeknights after school running these as one of like 10 sellers with access straight from Bluerose13x. Buying them for 700k from source, flipping for 1.1m in a time when you had to click and hold for a minute to put up that many coins in a trade.

Youth well spent.

>>724613350
>>724620156
My first time I played all the way through with a shitty spear, second time I used a 2hander with the gold potion buff and spells and wrecked everything 3x as fast, cool game I should play again.

A simple Longsword or a Zweihander.

Nothing else.

This sword got me to finish DS2 despite never finishing the others.

I always wanted a Master Sword replica as a kid.

>>724612870

You're BOTH wrong.

Yes I know it makes me a giga weeb but it looks SO COOL

A lot of limp wristed faggots itt

This game--but this sword in particular--sent me down a life path that ended with me learning Japanese to fluency.
