Why does it even happen? If I wasn't fucking weeabo, I wouldn't even play your shitty game what the shit?! The worst part? If game actually has good combat, and you still can't play fucking samurai in it.
This shit is unacceptable, japs really should stop doing this.
The grass is always greener. As a weeb you should know this.
Jaxon Reyes
Fucking plenty Thank god they've put Vergil in SE and his moveset in DMC4 So mostly crapcom stuff. Do faggots hate their lineage or what?
It's actually DD that triggered me, but my point stands.
Chase Lopez
yes
Jonathan Thomas
Be a weeb all you like but this katanafaggotry has been going on for too long.
Zachary Sanchez
Why does it happen? If I wasn't a fucking CLANGfag, I wouldn't even play your shitty game what the shit?! The worst part? If game actually has good combat, and you still can't play a fucking Champion of Justice in it.
This shit is unacceptable, robots should really stop doing this.
Jayden Butler
What kind of "European sword" are you even talking about, because that's a rather broad topic.
Thomas Rodriguez
>obviously no actual interesting weapons like japanese peasant weapon evolutions or chinese weapons
Owen Gutierrez
I know perfectly fine that katanas are shit weapons, and technology of making them was born out of necessity, because japan has really shitty ore. Thus second part of my autism - if you use katana like normal sword - it would fucking break. Hence specific katana combat styles also created out of necessity.
But they look cool as fuck, so I use them whenever possible. Cool>practical/realistic.
Nigger, you're trying to make fun of me, but I agree with every single point. Except I'm not into clang, but whatever
Katanas are usually used as skins for the most common type - european straight long sword. I know there are a bunch of them, but you get the idea, the most generic one.
Josiah Campbell
The whole island has European architecture, folklore, leadership(there were no Japanese dukes) and so on. Why would there even be a katana in that game? What class would even use it?
A Japanese game about the American version of Transformers and even so most of the robots don't even use swords, they use fists, rockets, lasers and so on. If would use a sword it would probably be a Cybertronian one(or whatever their planet was called). Why do you think it would look like a katana. Next you will complain that there were no Japanese robots in that game.
Camden Cook
Where's that Sacred Blacksmith gif?
I mean, they really shouldn't have added a "katana" in the first place, but it's not really the sort of game you should be seeking one out in, either.
Brandon Parker
transformers doesnt count for the katan quotient; its a western IP
robo-kunoichi and kendo student who cut through Scourge's knee with a katana notwithstanding
Nathaniel Carter
*katana quotient
Leo Clark
I presume you are also a belts and spikes fag as well.
Lucas Baker
Can you name a game with such an example? I can't really recall one that features both a katana and longsword and has them behave exactly the same.
John Rivera
No, wait a sec: is there even a katana in DD? I don't remember there being one. Are you seriously complaining that there's no katanas in a super generic European fantasy game? Are you retarded or something?
Jose Sanchez
The world is modeled after stereotypical medieval european country. And guess what those had plenty of imported/smuggled japanese and chinese weapons, treated as exotic vanity. Do you think there weren't weeb knights using katanas and tipping kabutos? There were. Of course they were laughing stock when they went public, but who cares.
Actually yeah, having gundam-like samurai designed transformer turning into, I don't know, some folklore monster, would be cool as shit. I mean dinosaurs are ok, why not ogres and such?
Belts yes, spikes no. I like coats and capes though.
Now that I think of it, it wasn't a japanese game. It was one of those diablo clones, but with 3D graphics. It had both straight swords and katanas, but used the same chopping animation for everything, including clubs, axes, anything one-handed basically.
Mason Sanchez
i can't wait till summer's finally over
Parker Bennett
Where do you think you are? Summer is eternal here
Carter Brooks
You deserve to be bullied. There are already quite a few Super Robot games out there like RAD, Bangai-Oh and some of the EDF games.
Most of the G1 Transformers are about as western as most of the OG Battletech mechs. That is to say not at all.
You could play games that are actually about being a samurai rather than complain about games that aren't about being a samurai.
Kayden Flores
10/10
Brayden Powell
nigga, I would understand if he said "gosh, katanas are superior to all western weapons bcuz samurai desu kawaii uguu" but he just said they look cool
tfw no top tier weapon in games - damascus steel stuff
Hunter Ramirez
[citation needed]
Jose Lopez
Yeah, all six of them. Oh wait played all them to death.
I know there is a trend to mock that, but I don't give a shit.
Even if there weren't, DD is a fantasy game, it has fucking dragons! Katanas would fit in perfectly.
Chase Phillips
shit opinions deserve to be mocked.
You obviously do give a shit
Chase Nguyen

Noah Sanders
DD based on greek myth. Was there katanas in the ancient greece ? Fucking weeb degenerates. Bless you.
Daniel Myers
summer flavored cancer>>9843600 Why do you think that katanas fit perfectly in a European medieval setting, and no saying that it's kuel isn't a good reason. Should every fanatasy game have a katana and capes, because they are also kuel? Should Prince of Persia also have katanas, I mean if he had a dagger that could control time, why didn't he also wield a katana, have lot's of belts around him and also wear a cape?
has western style dragons FTFY
Landon Cox
No. Everything is modeled after Western fantasy (mostly Germanic with some Greek monsters) even the dragons. A katana would stick out like a sore thumb. Maybe some middle eastern weapons would work, but a Japanese weapon would just look out of place with the whole theme of the game.
If you want a game with katanas, go play Way of the Samurai or something. There's no need to sully DD's setting with it.
Ian Garcia
Yes. Nobody fucking complains about katanas in Souls games.
Well if enjoying accidentally triggering autists like you is "giving a shit", then sure I do. Thanks for checking tho.
U wot
If PoP games had katana I would actually might play them. Because I hate sandniggers setting.
Wots is the best shit, but there is so much times you can replay the same game.
Asher Hernandez
I allways wonder why some fantasy-gaym making devs just dont go "eeh fuck it, it's a fucking fantasy so let's just go WIIILD!" and throw katanas, swords, even maces'n warhammers'n bows and such generic weapons in the trash and go for the most inpractical ceremony weapons and such in human history instead.
Bentley Green
Should the Gothic series feature katanas as well? I mean in Gothic 2 you also fight dragons. Maybe they should have added weaboo knight as well. You know what, the game would have been infinitely better if the Nameless Hero was a thousand year old loly that can summon dragons at will. I mean it is a fantasy game, why couldn't there be a thousand year old loly as the main character? Xardax should also be a loly and you can have yaoi sex with her.
Colton Sanders
Katanafags are second most hated thing in Souls after hex spammers you faggot
Gavin Peterson
Yes satan, Gothis series should have katanas. Actually is there a mod for Gothic 3 that would allow you to use both katana and wakizashi like a true bushi? That would be dope as shit.
Really? I never got hatemail from anyone. I used onikiri and ubodachi in DS3 though, does it count?
Jacob Richardson
Because Dark Souls lore actually has a far eastern country as part of its world. The game isn't set there, but there are merchants and characters from the East, so it makes sense that they would bring their native weapons with them. It's part of the setting, so it's not out of place. DD has no such place. There's an equivalent to France in DD, but nothing else is mentioned. It's obviously meant to be set in fake western continental Europe. There is no mention of an Eastern country with Japanese weapons, so there is no reason to assume such a place exists in DD at all.
The cyclops, chimera and harpy monsters are all from Greek mythology. How did you miss that?
John Morales
I really like this game but Jesus Christ this bothers the shit out of me
Charles Peterson
You should have been more subtle, at this point you are just shitposting. Everybody leave this thread and ignore this faggot.
Justin Reed
If you hate japanese shit so much, why are you even here? It's you who's shitposting.
Parker Bailey
For someone who goes on about how they want to be a samurai you don't seem to know much about samurai.
Ryder Baker
Fucking retard.
David Reed
Yes? What is your point? Are you saying I'm wrong? There's no evidence that there is a Japan in DD, but there is evidence of one in DS. Therefore, it's entirely thematic that there are katanas in DS, but not in DD. My problem with katanas in DD would be that they're out of place with the setting. There is no proof that they exist in DD's setting, so they are out of place. They exist in DS's setting, so it's entirely logical to find them. How am I wrong? Please explain.
Angel Hughes
I just don't know anymore guys
Charles Parker
Please stop talking to him. If he isn't a troll he is an autist obsessed with katanas. No matter what you say to him, he will continue saying that he wants katanas just because he thinks their kuel. Next he will complain that there aren't katanas in Stalker. Surely there are weeabo russians out there, so why don't you see one using a katana instead of a knife?
Lucas Diaz
itt: underages visit Holla Forums
Seriously. What a sane person would prefer katana to ANYTHING?! Even axes are cooler than katanas.
How about maces? Or Spears? Or War Hammers? Are you stroking your cock for nip stuff? Well, there's plenty of cool nip weapons such as: Nagamaki Tonfa Jitte Nunchaks Naginata Kusarigama Kama Sai Kamayari Su-Yari Tatsubo Ninjato
And so on. But no, you had to choose your shitty uncool katanas like a fucking normalfag!
Fuck it, you know katanas are for pussies.
Zachary Cook
One man who's feats have most likely been exaggerated.
Katana's aren't even the coolest weeb weapons. Those would be the various polearms japan had.
Justin Myers
Ninjato isn't a real thing, user, it was invented for the purposes of a movie
If we're talking eastern weapons, nigga METEOR HAMMER
William Garcia
Real men use poleaxes, kill yourself.
And a notorious dual wielder.
Stupid faggots like you think it's something novel to use a long and short blade, one for defense, and the other for attack, and that it hasn't been something humans have experimented with since swords were a thing.
Those were proper war weapons, yes, but katanas are cool because not only are they swords (no matter the fact they're more sidearm than primary weapon), but also a status symbol.
William Cruz
That looks like a wonderful way to hit yourself. I remember reading an article about Chinese flails, and how the manual on their use stressed the importance of learning not to get pummeled by your own weapon.
William Cook
I want to guess how it was used without looking it up. If it were me I'd throw it so it spins vertically aimed at the upper body or head if I was close enough.
Alexander Nelson
Faggots please.
Samuel Lopez
Guess I was completely wrong, you just use it like a flail.
Logan Williams
The chinks also had a nasty little trick where they'd tie a bright piece of cloth to the chain. The piece of cloth or fur or whatever was a very common parade and decorative thing, often added right below the blade, weight, killy thing. The chink peasants exploited this by putting the bright thing at least a foot or a foot and a half below the end, so that the enemy they were fighting (mostly soldiers) would mistake the position of the killy end, due to them being so used to it being at the top of the chain/pole.
Benjamin White
It wasn't decorative either. It was there to distract you by having your eyes focus on the very bright, moving bit instead of the blade.
Julian Anderson
If your game does not have a kusarigama, then it is shit. It is the ultimate combination of cut and smash.
Isaac Ward
Just poppin into fix that for you fam.
Logan Long
Katanas are shitty swords anyway. Samurais almost never used them because they were only good against unarmed opponents, like when you were slaughtering peasants. The most used weapon of a samurai was a spear.
The island of Japan never had much iron, and the deposits it did have were of poor quality. This is why the Japs were never able to forge proper swords, and intentionally resorted to making brittle and frail katanas because it was all the shitty iron was good for. Katanas are utterly worthless for warfare, they only exist for murder and at most one on one duels.
Josiah Wright
Weeb please step aside

That is a travesty. A game like that goes to the trash bin or gets modded.

The setting is clearly an ultra-asian hybrid. The opening level has chinese dragons under mount fuji for fucks sake.
Katana gumbies need to go die. At least NiOh will the sort of stuff I want. Let's hope they don't fuck up the game based on those survey results.
Juan Rogers
That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Bastard Sword" bullshit that's going on in the d20 system right now. Katanas deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.
I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine katana in Japan for 2,400,000 Yen (that's about $20,000) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my katana.
Japanese smiths spend years working on a single katana and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.
Katanas are thrice as sharp as European swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a katana could easily bisect a knight wearing full plate with a simple vertical slash.
Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering Japan? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Samurai and their katanas of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with the katanas first because their killing power was feared and respected.
So what am I saying? Katanas are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the d20 system. Here is the stat block I propose for Katanas:
(One-Handed Exotic Weapon) 1d12 Damage 19-20 x4 Crit +2 to hit and damage Counts as Masterwork
(Two-Handed Exotic Weapon) 2d10 Damage 17-20 x4 Crit +5 to hit and damage Counts as Masterwork
Now that seems a lot more representative of the cutting power of Katanas in real life, don't you think?
tl;dr = Katanas need to do more damage in d20, see my new stat block.
Colton Kelly
