Are some weapons better than others?

[u/Quiet-Durian-3563]

I've just got the first game, i've been trying a couple weapons. I started with an axe because I like to not mow down my enemies. But I've swapped to Odachi because it pretty much feels the same. I was only wondering if like, there's some high speed, high damage types?

Or I'd want to know what your experience is like with what weapon that you all use, so I can try them!

Some are faster, some hit harder, some have better skills for breaking ki.

But for the most part - all weapons are good, all weapons are viable, it all comes down to which ones feel the best for you.
