[@LargeMetallicFellow]

@@liamarcher7969 So a loophole to justify it being nerfed to oblivion. The mag size doesn't even make it worth it. If they're gonna give you the ultimate BOW killer but want balance, just give it a max of 10 bullets in the entire game. Don't nerf it AND give it a tiny mag size.

@@LargeMetallicFellow It’s pretty much an aid for completion of madhouse, as is the saw, neither are inherently overpowered and that’s the point. You don’t need to feel like you can blast through entire game in seconds on any mode after you’ve completed it once to unlock a gun. If there’s any unlockable to complain about it’s the running shoes, not the Albert replica. I didn’t feel like the combat in the game was particularly difficult at any point aside from in Ethan Must Die, which is completely unrelated. As far as the main game goes the Albert replica is strong enough, stick some enhanced handgun ammo in that and it’s a breeze.

You get the replica version of the gun but it still packs a punch the one you used in the final boss was the actual one

Don't need to wait until DS3 to emulate artorias' moves. He was actually left handed, he uses his right against you because his left arm is broken. Equip his weapon to your left hand and you'll be able to use some of his moves even in DS1.

And this is considering he was greatly weakened by exposure to the Abyss, which drove him mad. So he's basically fighting you with numerous handicaps... And yet he still can destroy you

[@Zansekai]

It's never been confirmed that he's left-handed. Only in DS2 you get access to his special moves with the weapon in the left hand. His armor and damaged shield suggest that he's right handed and broke his arm by trying to block Manus' attack

Let’s be honest the Yamato is OP when Vergil use it, because it is Vergil’s sword.

[@TheGary108]

That and Vergil had years to practice and hone his skills, same for Dante with Rebellion. It’s actually an testament to Dante’s skill and experience that he was able to use a degree of Yamato’s power effectively in short time without any prior experience of actually using it. As someone once put it “I do not fear the man that practices thousand kicks, I fear the man that practiced a kick a thousand times”. I always thought it was why Vergil is so OP with the Yamato, but Dante was able to beat him due to having variety of experience using different weapons and skill sets that Vergil wasn’t quite experienced in.

In game the explanation is that you're simply not strong enough- the Brutes are like 8 feet tall and solid muscle.

[@Ali-Sensei]

what are talking about. Blade of Olympus is broken in that game only down side you cant use it all the time only on rage mode

[@Pub2k4]

@@Ali-Sensei In God of a war 2, when Zeus used the Blade of Olympus, he was able to defeat all the Titans in a single blow. When he used it against Kratos’ army, he made a single swipijng gesture that wiped them ALL out. So in keeping the theme of the video, the blade of Olympus IS SUPER nerfed when Kratos got it.

The most obvious one in recent times is Serpent Hunter from Elden Ring. During the Rykard fight you get this amazing, boss-specific spear that enables you to hit the boss' giant form while still avoiding the lava with these powerful sweeping wind beams, but outside of the boss arena, it's just a regular spear. It's still really useful in speedruns and a lot of people like it cause it has amazing strength scaling, but to say I was disappointed that you couldn't harness just a little bit of that power was an understatement. Like it even has a specific ash of war that does nothing, to troll you

[@Necrofitz]

I don't think that really fits the ticket for this. First off it's a weapon specifically for a boss, not a weapon used by the boss. Beyond that, it isn't just popular for its scaling, but because of its total lack of stat requirements making it usable with any build, from level 1 to the most otherwise magic slanted character. It's one of the best weapons you can use for plain 'ol damage that isn't even that heavily gated, making it possible to get much earlier than many other weapons that would outdo it majorly in a more specialized build. It actually has the honor of being the most usable version of this style of gimmick weapon too. Comparatively, the Storm Ruler is absolutely useless outside of its respective fights in Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 3.

[@OgBadlaws]

@@Necrofitz I wouldn't say completely useless in demon souls because it has massive knockback where you can troll pretty hard with ledges.

[@kingmidas1310]

The final boss’s sword from castle crashers is a perfect example of this imo. You fight the boss, he uses the sword for a weird spinning attack, he shoots fireballs with the sword, everything. He even shapeshifts into a giant spider looking thing, but when you get it? Sure, it has very good damage and a chance to set enemies on fire, but it doesn’t have anything really special about it. I get that no weapon in the game really has any of those kinds of abilities or whatever, but you would’ve thought that the reward for beating the final boss of the game would be somewhat unique

[@Loctorak]

Ahh Castle Crashers... Good times

[@chosen729]

Johnny silverhand’s gun was really op in his flashback missions. Then when you get the weapon in game it’s literally garbage, only being good for its penetration.

[@theblackbaron4119]

6:15 in ds2 you also get all those moves if you hold it in your LEFT hand. also if you powerstance the "majestic greatsword" you even get some unique moves out of it, which no other GS offers when powerstanced.

About this sword from 6:08 At least for dark souls 2, afair, to get his original moveset(not most of it, but still) you have to offhand this sword(put it into left hand, not right) also you can unlock more moves if you dual wield 2 this swords.

Well, the weakness of the Yamato when Dante uses it makes sense, Dante isn't that familiarized with the weapon and Vergil's fighting style, Vergil on the other hand uses it as his main weapon, the potential of the sword is unleshed with mastery. And then there's Nero, who uses it with his demon arm

[@SyniStar616]

To be fair on the Freeze Blast from the Arkham games, it's not really a combat weapon in the sense that it does damage. It was designed to be a puzzle tool. In example, you're exploring Gotham, looking for Riddler nonsense, and you see a glowing green goon in a crowd. Use freeze blast on him, take out the rest of the crowd while he's frozen, then interrogate him without running the risk of knocking him unconscious. Additionally, let's say you're in a predator sequence and there's an armored goon or a mini gunner or some other nasty goon that you wanna lock down for a little bit, freeze him, take out his buddies, then deal with the problem.

[@dark14life]

You nailed #1. The Spark Shock is ridiculous. 10 year old me was stunned. No pun intended. It is literally useless.

[@josefkrenshaw179]

Silent Hill 2 is everywhere but here. The weapon I have been most disappointed after getting is Pyramid's head's giant knife. Of course, it should have been obvious that James would be slowed to a crawl when equipped with it. Useless for general use, though it can one-hit Eddie.

[@jotarokujo4727]

And let's don't forget the Knife that you can't even use

[@hawk647]

In dark souls 2 I’m pretty sure the weapon is actually pretty fast and fluid. You just need the correct stats and to put it in your left hand, although I may be mistaking it for a different sword!

[@thekillers1stfan]

Yeah, that sword is sick in DS2 if you use it in your left

[@emmettstinnett7918]

Yeah I can also get a unique moveset when power stances while in left hand

[@christianzulueta6581]

when it comes to swords, specially Japanese samurais, ancient warriors, and legends, the power actually comes from the wielder who channels his energy to his weapon, that's why only virgil can do those unique badass combos with yamato.

[@nathan900130]

The Dark Dragon Blade from Ninja Gaiden/Sigma. When the final boss uses the sword, it's stupidly powerful, able to summon a large dragon to nuke Ryu. When Ryu gets it (Must collect all 50 Gold Scarabs on HARD MODE and above), the sword is still powerful (one of the strongest in the game next to fully leveled wooden sword at low health) but it has a very small move set, Although its ultimate technique can decimate almost all small enemies.

I mean...Compared to artorias, the chosen undead isn't a well renowned knight with years of experience when welding the behemoth that is the abyss great sword.

For Virgil's sword in the DMC series, one thing to remember is that devil arms have abilities based on the person using them. As such, it kind of makes sense that Virgil has different abilities with his sword then Dante or Nero do.

Also the dude bitches about Dante not knowing how to wield Yamato… When this is canonically the first time he’s ever unsheathed her, let alone wielded her. He’s used Rebellion his whole life, he’s not Vergil, of course he can’t use Yamato’s full strength. She’s bonded to Vergil and those of his blood (like Nero who when using Yamato in DT does a buttload of damage)
