And The Outrageous Wasted Emo can't even edit his posts while on his phone! =( The Outrageous Wasted Emo guesses that he has found a way to continue to Rp on the forums, even with his inability to access the forums at times. =D Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

I've been playing Dark Souls 3 a lot recently.

Nothing like cleaving through the Deacons of the Deep with the Halberd's power attack.

Seriously, the halberd is a really awesome weapon. Not even in the context of the video game - I mean in general. It's like a spear combined with a battleaxe, and it reaches even further than the poleaxe. There needs to be more halberds in video games.

Like, Runescape has halberds, but they kind of suck. They are only really useful for cheesing enemies by getting them stuck in objects and rendering them defenseless. I don't know if that changed in EoC or not, but anything that wasn't a scimitar was considered useless back then. And these days it's all about dual wielding and two-handed.

Seriously, get more halberds in video games. Forget about having prominent minority characters in video games these days; we need more halberds. Today they are one of the most excluded groups in all forms of entertainment as well as in real life.

Ancient Drew, I would recommend uploading your stories to FanFiction.net, as that's way more worthwhile. FanFiction has a section for RuneScape fanfiction, which has hundreds of stories, way more populated than RuneScape's own website.

Heh, I've beat the first two Dark Souls games, it literally took me 198 hours to beat Dark Souls 2 Scholar of the First Sin, but it was great. Lost millions of souls, and now my skinny girl-knight is over level three hundred. Oddly enough, when you get to around level 200, the leveling-up requirement does not go up too high. Not that it mattered, I was always a bad player, and lost 9/10 times in PvP and literally died over a thousand times, according to the stone monument anyways.

In Dark Souls 3, I went up to the Nameless King optional boss with just equipment upgraded with small titanite, but I could not defeat the Nameless King, so I resorted to upgrading my "broadsword" to +10 and destroyed the boss. Oddly enough, the longswords in Dark Souls are just arming swords with extended hilts, and the claymore is described as "large great sword" even though most claymores were essentially longswords with extended hilts, making claymores the smallest great swords out there. The game series seems unable to know the difference between hilt and shaft, as well as pommel and head. Also, "broadsword" refers to a basket-hilted straight sabre, not an arming sword, and a sword that ends in a very pointy tip would be very bad at slashing.

Oh, and ya, halberds are cool, they should make more appearances in games.
