Fireballs and jumping on shit
Autorifles, hand cannon and Gjallarhorn
Sentry gun. Just a damn shame TF2 community servers are largely dead. The early 2010s were a wonderful time to be a TF2 engie main. Now Valve has all these stupid gimmicky TF2 play modes and they effectively killed community servers.

I like Uncletopia servers they’re either too full and hard to get into, or very empty. It’s frustrating. The reddit RUGC servers from back in the day were 10/10. Wonderful community.
Grappling hook. The batman arkham and just cause games are so great.

I always want it to be the spear, but I find that most games don’t really get spears right or just generally make them a worse choice than some type of sword. Spears or something in the spear family were the weapon of choice for the vast majority of human history. This is true both in contexts where fighting would have been done in tight formation and in times/places where it was not. It was more common than the sword, and in many places and times would have been considered a fighter’s main weapon, with a sword acting as a kind of sidearm. In games, however, spears are almost always less effective than swords, while reach advantage is usually very minor or negated altogether.

Do you know the game Lichtspeer? 😅
It’s basically the game if you like spears!
That game looks cool, but the thrown spear isn’t really what I was thinking about. I feel like games do a slightly better job representing that.
It’s the spear as a main battle weapon that I think doesn’t get represented well in popular culture. For example, Vikings in games usually are depicted with axes, but spear and shield were probably more common.
The same goes for really any medieval or faux-medieval setting. The vast majority of fighters would have had some variation on the pointy stick as their main weapon, because they were so deadly effective.
There’s also a commonly repeated argument that spears might be the main weapon in massed battle, but in small groups or one on one combat it would be ineffective, but I’ve seen plenty of HEMA matches and recreations that show that spear users can beat sword users, often with very little experience with the weapon.
Probably a bow. The newer Tomb Raider games where you could essentially make your bow a one shot silent killing lasergun were great. I also always liked to use a bow in Skyrim.
On the other hand, bows in Far Cry (starting from FC3) were pretty annoying to use as you constantly ran out of ammo and the physics weren’t that great. I didn’t play Far Cry Primal yet, I hear there the bow was good again. I won’t buy Ubisoft games due to ethical reasons though…
