An oar is such a stupid weapon, especially for the main character.
Seems pretty cool to me. Repurposed tools as weapons is a fun trope.
yeah and while we're at it spears are dumb too, and quarter/bo staves too main characters should only have swords and nothing else
Complaining about the weapons? That's a paddlin'
>>11106808>main characters should only have swordsOnly katanas
It's a reference to an anecdote where Miyamoto Musashi was supposedly fighting his arch-nemesis and his sword got knocked away, so he picked up an oar and started Jackie Chan-ing with it.
>>11106801He should see his doctor about his leg tumors
>JRPG>Main character doesn't use a sworddropped like a bag of hot shit
Would be cool if there was a gun attached to each side. A gunoar.
>>11107206>JRPG>Main character doesn't use a swordPicked the fuck up
It was an oar? I thought it was some kind of bladed staff thing.
>>11107612A major theme of the game is the ocean of course it's a fucking oar.
>>11107614>Oars made of stone and steelOk man, sure.
>>11106801you havent seen me in blade and sorcery then oars are completely valid weapons and over powered and over looked by all but the most skilled and accomplished of fighters.
>>11106801Disagree. Also I literally wrote the book on fighting and you're a pussy faggot.
>>11106801I always thought it was a twinblade. But an oar is basically a quarterstaff anyway you spastic retard.
>>11106826>>11107816"In short, the Way of the Ichi School is the spirit of winning, whatever the weapon and whatever its size."Sasaki Kojiro was not even the first man the Sword-saint instakilled with a piece of wood.
>>11106813You want me to stop? Oar what?
>Bringing an Oar-Blade to a fishing pole fight
>>11107816>Also I literally wrote the book on fighting>guy who lived on a tiny, isolationist island that was completely irrelevant until 170 years agoyou didn't write shit
>>11106801Why can't I simply play as a twink that uses a gigantic two-handed axe?
>>11107789Why is the San Francisco bridge in the background?
>>11106801after all these years I just know realized that thing is an oar.
>>11109097Why not?
>>11106801The better question is, why did the game call it a swallow? A swallow's a bird.
>>11109136because the events of the game are kicked into action when schala, from across space and time, fractures the timeline so she can be reborn to SWALLOW serges load. its all very japanese
>>11109149naruhodo
>>11109149Ahh, it all makes sense now
>>11108104>Mongols literally gave up and said fuk it, we can't beat them>Japanese decided that wasn't enough and that they needed to be even better>All the Euroshit countries start trying to take over>Literally in their recorded history that they didn't think they had a chance so they would use religion to try and take over>Japan takes all their religion and turns it into fanfiction, rendering it powerless
>>11109136You know how people in this thread are talking about how Miyamoto Musashi famously beat the shit out of a guy with an oar? That guy was Sasaki Kojiro, who's (supposed) trademark move was called the Swallow Cutter, because it was a slash that changed direction so quickly it could feint and cut a swallow out of the air (or maybe he just pulled out a short sword and stabbed his opponent while they were focused on defending his big sword). What the allusion has to do with Chrono Cross is anyone's guess.
>>11109434Mongols only "lost" to natural disasters. Divine intervention is the only thing that saved nips from getting KHANNED
>>11106801fact check: false
