more weapons that arent spears

[The man behind the slaughter]

oh my god this game has tOOO MANY SPEARS. i understand spears are simple weapons that would be easy for someone with no training to use effectively bUT OOOOH MY GOD ITS BORING . Please add more variety to the bladed weapons instead of just adding another spear for cold fusion. consider more swords imagine a hardlight zweihander or a lodestone battleaxe made by grafting a lodestone onto the woodsmans hatchet.

I agree with this post

Maybe a revamp to weapon types with alt-fire functionality?

It makes no sense to 'throw' a laser katana to lose a massive chunk of durability... Just switch them to the same alt-fire as blunt weapons, or maybe give them a new attack (maybe spinning attack?).

The same with spears, you actually don't wanna throw certain spears, and they don't stick on enemies or surfaces like throwing spikes/knives do.

For spears, alt-fire (if the weapon doesn't have a unique function) could be a heavy thrust attack that makes you dash forward 1 feet and thrust, inflicting knockback while trying to reach a target quickly.

For swords, you swing a wide sweep frontally that also knocks back targets, and can cause bleeding, or you 'spin' attack hitting around you in a 180 degree arc (hits even outside your camera at close angles).

true. it could be more sharp weapons and better alt attack for them, like same heavy thrust... or maybe a dash

A quick dash makes sense for 'knives' and swords actually... Right click makes you dash in the movement direction your input is heading into, drains a bit of stamina.

I actually do not see anyone caring about 'throwing' their kitchen knives at enemies.

spears are better. In a fight against a sword (or most other melee weapons in this game for that matter) they no dif them because you simply outrange everyone else
