This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Most spears didnt have rounded spikes so you could still slash with them. Using the pole to whack people with was also common. They're more like bladed staffs than anything else.

Yeah, but you're talking about real spears, this is about videogame spears.

I want a game where the only weapon is a spear.

It's not only spears, but the spears is very realistic in Just Dance. Only has the Britney kind, though.

Playing Morrowind with the "use optimal attack" switched off did offer variety even if thrust was by and far best

Arena and Daggerfall made you drag your mouse for each attack.

Which would be really cool and tactical if the enemy hitboxes had one iota of complexity.
