Has anyone tuned into streamers playing this game? They ALL use claymore LMAO

[Cognyk]

god the way they play it safe and auto and poke from a mile away. watching paint dry would be more entertaining. Laughing my ass off at how bad gamers are when it comes to creative/engaging fighting.

Then again, they are all ARPG blasters who feel disgruntled at have to press more than two keys

The claymore is defo not the easiest wep ingame infact prob 1 of the hardest to use unless with lighting or fire infusing but its defo not easilly the easist to use ingame.

it has THE most phantom range and great stagger. You'd have to see to them play it to understand the level of cheese, and what lengths they go to in order to avoid proper combat

*now contemplates using a claymore* roflmao I personally have noticed how most streamers have the highest praises for this game. And to be fair it is a really good game but I feel like they should probably mention the negatives that are going on right now. IMO but I'm not a streamer.

the claymore practilly keeps u in combat cos of it is slow.
using the claymore can mess u up or go for a kill..
Its like a 50/50.
if u sue it well can be great but their are mobs & bosses u will bend the knee.

[Cognyk]

fair enough

[^7ja^1co]

really have you tuned to ALL the streamers?

[Cognyk]

sorry, i meant ARPG streamers such as Raxx, Ziz and whatnot. Im fascinated by and try to glean why humans do certain things, such as watching streamers... ZzZz

I know there are some reaaallly skilled streamers abound, but for the genres which interest me, they happen to be laughably bad at execution / engaging, skillful gameplay... but are really informed when it comes to Metas and how to exploit / break / play at a power lvl the devs never intended

First time I played I also played with Claymore. It looks better when you look at the stats, it does more damage. But it's sloooow.
A weapon with a throw rune attack is much more fun.

Strength build with claymore is popular because of anime/manga. Have you heard of Berserk or Claymore?

how dare they they play the game for fun.

[Cognyk]

It's fine, do wtv tickles your fancy... i just found it funny pro gamers are unable to play with more zest, more daring, more uniqueness? There is so much possibility within NRFTW and a broad range of weapons and playstyles available.

You cannot defend that attempting to cheese with phantom range - downward slash, poke, roll away... create distance... rinse and repeat = maximum fun... or maybe you can? because everything is subjective after all

A big appeal to action games is utilizing tools and techniques to engage with the combat directly, not attempting to bypass it with the most safe and mundane autopilot

The ♥♥♥♥ is this post about? Ziz played fists, DatModz played fists, Steelmage played 1h sword an shield, and then a few played claymore. Second thing, its a souls like game and most of their first playthroughs. Like literally one of the best speedrunners in the souls like genre "distortion" gets his ass beat the first playthrough of a new soulslike game and dies plenty times. You're making fun of people for arbitrary reasons to let out your hate of streamers, like, just delete your post, there's actually great feedback and discussions going on, no need to flood the forum with ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ random hate and a degenerate opinion, let people use whatever the ♥♥♥♥ they wanna use
