What is less debatable is whether or not Geralt looks ridiculous fighting enemies using a decrepit gardening tool. This isn't a criticism, we really dig this wea
At the end of the day, eliminating weapon durability systems entirely would also eliminate a big portion of strategy and realism from numerous games. Thus, adapting systems that allow for ways to prevent weapons from breaking entirely would resolve most players’ frustrations, and is the best win-win scena
Unfortunately, while they are legitimate weapons when you find them, they don't remain viable for much of the game, though you will unquestionably cherish the moments you share with them. It is a crime that these were not included as an alternative costume piece in the Arena fighting games. We don't want glasses DLC, Atlus, give us the glo
I know that right off the bat, many people are going to disagree just based off the title of the article. One of the most common takes regarding weapon durability limits is that it does nothing but get in the way. And I can’t disagree to some extent—it can be horribly frustrating and annoy
Final Fantasy 14 exists in a unique state for joke weapons. Since you are able to make nearly every weapon look like any other weapon, the Kettle Knuckles can be as powerful as you want them to be (essentially). Just take your best knuckle weapon and apply the Kettle Knuckles as a glam
But games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild have gotten a lot of hate for its weapon durability setup. In Breath of the Wild, you go through weapons and shields extremely quickly, and they’re just broken and unusable once you’ve used them up. This game falls into that exact, problematic description that I’ve given above. Considering how great the rest of the game is, it’s unfortunate that so many people could not get past the durability sys
The figure itself displays Ciri in a kimono with a katana resting on her shoulder and the head of a Yokai, a Japanese demon, in her hand, not unlike the trophies earned in The Witcher 3 . At her side is a small fox-like creature with multiple tails, that some might recognize as a Kitsune, another spirit from Japanese lore. This figurine is named “Ciri and the Kitsune” and is a limited edition piece, each order being sculpted and painted by hand, including slight variations according to the product description due to the personal touch put into making the i
Here in the real world, food is an essential part of everyday life. Whether that comes in the form of cooking food at home, going out to a restaurant to eat, or ordering from a delivery service, we all need food to surv
That said, the one realm in which people seem to be the most accepting of weapon durability systems is in survival games. Considering that the whole point of those games is to be desperately trying to survive in an almost impossible situation, limited supplies and weapons contributes to the feel that the games are usually going for and are thus much more acceptable for m
Monster Hunter Freedom was based on Monster Hunter G, the Japanese-only expanded version of the original Monster Hunter Wilds news Hunter. Made specifically for handheld audiences, Freedom was not a direct port of Monster Hunter G but instead based a lot of its content on the earlier g
With so many different titles under the Monster Hunter banner , we thought we would look back at the franchise and the various games it has to offer. Regrettably, not every game was released in the West, but we still received some of the best in the series. Which of these awesome Monster Hunter games have you played over the ye
The area around the base of the figure appears to depict a fierce battle that took place between Ciri and the Yokai who's head now hangs in the woman's hand. All of this design work was accomplished by a team of artists, including CD Projekt Red's art director Paweł Mielniczuk. Whether or not this Monster Slayer Ciri is expected to be a feature in future Witcher games is yet to be seen, but considering the craftsmanship of the model, it would be a welcome sight in-g
The Naughty Stick has absolutely pitiful stats, so it really doesn't make sense to ever use it when there are so many weapons that are substantially better . But it is genuinely hilarious, so maybe if you are looking to style on your enemies, you can equip this and give 'em a good spank
EA and Koei Tecmo's Wild Hearts is a hunting action game with many similarities to the Monster Hunter series that many fans have eagerly anticipated. Monster Hunter Rise , the most recent entry in the Monster Hunter series, never had as much popularity as its predecessor Monster Hunter: World , but has been gaining more due to its availability on more platfo
Some games have definitely used weapon durability systems better than others. Dying Light , for example, allows for repairing and upgrading weapons. In Monster Hunter , your weapons become less sharp as you use them, limiting what you can cut through, but the game allows for the use of whetstones in order to sharpen them again (though different weapons have different limits). The weapons in Fire Emblem break after you’ve gone through the number of uses per weapon, but most of the weapons are so easy to replace that it doesn’t become a consistent detraction from the game, it simply adds to the strategy per
