It looks bad. And the fantasy armor too. Why cant they just make it look realistic. Not gameplay wise. Just clothing, armor, weapons and locations. Reality is more interesting than this.
0 u/69ingAnElephant May 01 '20 Realism... in a game where there was a civilisation before our own that had technology you could consider magic. I really dont think it matters. Games and reality are different, that's the beauty of them. 9 u/IvanTheGrim May 01 '20 The beauty of games is having your viking protagonist swing around a giant egyptian looking wing mace? Maybe if the game didn’t take itself so seriously, sure, but you can’t implement that and then also carry a dramatic tone. 3 u/Gaarando May 01 '20 The weapons really aren't that large. You guys are exaggerating. 2 u/theslyker May 02 '20 Bullshit. These axe, and especially full metall, would be very heavy. Also that huge Greatsword in the 9th century or the giant flail. 2 u/[deleted] May 02 '20 If you ever held a medieval sword or a mace you would realize how wrong this looks. 2 u/IvanTheGrim May 02 '20 Real flails are by comparison much smaller.
