        Katanas are nowhere near the best in Dark Souls
        But a Katana is the best in Elden Ring, which sucks

          I thought people liked greatswords in Elden Ring, on account of the fact they actually stagger and knockdown bosses.

      It's pretty easy to differentiate between a far away traveler currently located in the European setting, and characters that should be white being blackwashed

        It's interesting that they're more likely to raceswap ancient Roman (or Gauls) with east Africans instead of with those of west African descent.
        They know what they're doing.

      It can't make sense in any setting inspired by Europe

      It's pretty easy to differentiate between a far away traveler currently located in the European setting, and characters that should be white being blackwashed

      There was never any far away nonwhite travelers in Europe until the 1700's

        bow to your masters.
        It took far too long for western devs to realize how to use and show western medieval designs and aesthetics. CDPR's art and design team who knew and understood all sorts of clothing and armor designs throughout European history deserve some credit. GoT's design team as well. And of course both of those got their push from Weta Workshop's autism on LotR.

          The Witcher game outfits/armor were pretty rad. Makes me wonder what the people in charge of the TV show were smoking.

            Ballsack armor, literally. Simply a negative sense of aesthetics and wanted to make hamfisted points about masculinity.
            It's also worth pointing out that the Japs have done great work and appreciation for western armor - berserk of course being one of the touchstones.

              Well, I hope they got their wish, considering they apparently had to replace all the armor in the second season at great expense.

    How come so many games with modern settings use katanas (L4D, GTA, yakuza, DMC etc) but no games with modern settings ever use european broadswords?

    I've always thought of it as
    >Alot of swords made range from good to crap
    >A crap sword won't help you get very far
    >A good sword can help you get a long way
    so if you found a katana from the far east chances are that thing has to have some merit to get it's previous owner so far away from home
