Razorback DLC

[Maraxus]

Is this weapon going to make a return for those who couldn't preorder the game? I think it looks far better than Saw Blade, and I'md gladly pay a few bucks for it

why should it the lazer zilla sword never came back on the first game

To be fair the Razorback isn't a good weapon at all, way too slow, it consumed ammo (Yes there's plenty around but it's a melee weapon with ammo that doesn't shoot anything) and basically locks you in contact for a few seconds. You forget it even exists the moment you pick up the twin blades and realise that striking like 3-4 times a second is way, way better.

It's not worth it imo. It's good at the start, but is easily replaced with some of the other melee weapons in the game.

Even at the start, getting locked in melee with your target for a few seconds isn't worth it.

Well, i found it quite effective at the beginning, but switched it for the twin blades instead later on. I just found the slow melee attack to be satisfying

It just kills the collector in me, not being able to even TRY it to decide if I like it.
I love the feel of the Saw Blade, but the low fuel capacity and the high tech appearance were huge turnoffs for me. The razorback just looks like a much cooler alternative

Sawblade doesnt have a low fuel capacity, its fuel capacity is like 800 i think without ammo expansions but it just drains it so damn fast that it feels like it does. Razorback i found to be useful and fun to use. I just use it for movement speed now cuz of its passive 10% movement speed. Only thing i didnt like about it was being "locked" into an enemy when attacking but its a chainsaw sword so i expected that. Still a good weapon all round tho

If your willing to fork up a few extra ponies depending on your copy, try to nab their collectors edition, for deluxe owners its 15 USD and standard owners its 25 USD (EDIT: Might be more/less depending on where you live. This price figure is USA based), that includes tax/shipping for CE. What you get is 3 games, ALL DLC for ALL 3, so you get the pre-orders for both SW1 and SW2. This happens immediately upon purchase, no waiting. Then sometime this month, no date has been announced, they will ship the CE's. Only 5000 are being sold, I am not even sure if the promotion is still up. Great deal though to get physical game copies, artbook, stickers, game case and then all 3 the stuff off Steam.

So yea, they gave their fans 2 chances now to get the pre-order DLC, if people don't get it at this point, I doubt they will offer it again lol And not to put my favorite game company down, but as others have said, the RazorBack is not the greatest weapon. Its AMAZING if you just start fresh, it is very OP in the early stages of the game but once you progress you will find much better weapons and on NG+ its going to collect dust, trust me lol Its up to you. The coolest thing is the Wangopedias description of the weapon honestly. And All I say is "I love you guys too!" @Flying Wild Hog/Devolver Digital.

Huh, I wasn't aware the collector's edition contained the preorder DLCs. That's pretty neat.

Still, I don't think I'm gonna have that sort of money by then...
Ahh well, I'm sure some other new weapon will come along and take my breath away... maybe something unarmed, like brass knuckles.

While the Razorback is better than the Saw Blade just from the sheer fact the Saw Blade has limited ammo, chainsaws and chainswords are still not good weapons outside 1v1.

Razorback gives you a "viable" chainsword, but that's not much to brag about. You basically trade the chainsaw alt fire for Force Slash, which has always been underwhelming. Sting is canceled whenever an enemy dodges away and using Vortex is a death sentence.
