Look at Candiru standing up for his old shoggie weapon!

Once a shogunate, always a shogunate :D
Human being to the mob..
What’s a mob to a king? What’s a king to a god?
What’s a god to a non-believer? Who don’t believe in anything?

I've made epic rare Nodachi in Diablo 3. Too bad I couldn't use it.

Since Diablo 3 is an awesome game I think that every equally awesome game should have OP Nodachi. It's a beautiful weapon.

Both Katana and Nodachi have some thrusting capabilities, however they are severely outclassed by longswords and such in this regard. (which is pretty well represented in cRPG as it stands.)

I think a thrust for a nodachi isn't completely unwarranted, but it's not on the top of my list of priorities.

Very much so. TV has some incredible bias towards oriental stuff, I don't know why. I guess it sells better.

No way a needle-tip sword with a diamond cross section can stab worse than a katana. IMPOSSIBRU!
