>play single player RPG
>spears are usable
This is the worst meme ever. Don't video game devs know that spears are only good in formation? Spear wielders would immediately get raped by other weapons, even dirty macefags could beat them.
>>333701414
Pretty sure you're thinking of pikes or something similar
>AXE is usable
unrealistic
>>333701414
>play Pillars of Eternity
>could dual-wield spears like a bad motherfucker if I found some good ones
Why do you preach against fun, faggot?
>>333701414
Spears are viable in 1vs1
>>333701414
if there are no shields involved then a person with a spear has a huge advantage
>>333701414
Can one use a spear akin to a fighting stick (fighting pole idk) without the need to really poke, or just use a short spear instead? It cant be totally useless in the right hands, can it?
>>333701414
Why the fuck wouldn't you use a spear in a 1v1?
>>333701414
>muh realism in mah vidyer gaems
Kill yourself
>>333701825
Op is baiting. If you have one guy with a spear and one with a sword, bet on the guy with the spear.
>>333701414
Might as well post this here. Why dont more games allow bo staff weapons? Why is always a shitty wizard stat stick?
Its probably the most well rounded weapon in existence, and it fits every setting.
>>333701414
>not using a spear 1v1 to outpoke big guys
baka desu senpai
>>333701414
>spears are only good in formation
haha you're retarded anon
>>333701948
i thought lugaru had pretty fun staves
>>333702040
He only got killed because he was to busy bragging to the crowd instead of finnishing Gregor off.
>>333701948
because against an armored opponent a wooden stick is just not good enough, you need a mace, or a warhammer
Halberds were the ultimate weapon combining thrusting ranged weapons with slashing close combat attacks.
>Having less weapon variety because "MUH REALISM"
JUST PLAY THE GAME,RETARD AND STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT TRIVIAL SHIT
>>333701414
Spears (not pikes, spears) have been used in duel with great effectiveness. They were only unpopular due to the hassle of having to carry them compared to a sword.
If spears are so good then why do main characters always have swords?
>>333702152
That's why they developed into pikes and halberds as full plate armor became popular.
>>333702296
Try going to a party with a spear and you'll find out.
>>333702296
since swords are seen as being more heroic, also for an adventurer its the best kind of a weapon because its easy to transport and while it does not excel at anything, it is still pretty decent and can be used against any type of an opponent
>>333702178
>Close combat with a halberd.
>Losing to dumb shit like axes and swords all day instead of using it properly.
Sorry fagger.
>>333702119
he also forgot that full helms are pretty useful
>>333701948
Chivalry lets you shit on kids with quarterstaff if you git gud
>use spear
>die
lel
also what weapon did Aerith use? oh right a stick
It's not a total meme. A spear user would have an advantage up until he allowed his opponent to get past the head of his spear, but a skilled fighter could make the spear work, provided he moved around a good bit.
Which is what your character is, a skilled fighter that moves around a good bit.
>>333701414
You're an idiot. Ever hear of using different weapons when needed?
>>333702268
This guy knows what's up.

Spear + short sword
Good/bad combination?
>>333702689
Depends. Are you planning on using both at the same time?
>>333701414
>not using spears, tridents and poleaxes
OP is a faggot.
>>333702689
a great combination actually, you can always just chug the spear at the enemy and close in with the sword
