The first time I saw the curved Carja sword on a market stand I thought it was the coolest weapon in the game, I wish we could equip other melee weapons other than spears.
Those non-spear weapons are mainly for fighting humans. Unless you're supremely skilled in close quarters combat, you want some distance from the machines. The mostly metal/armor/bladed machines, that you are generally better off fighting at a distance... Or taking by surprise with some heavier Penetration weaponry, than a sword... A spear, is actually a better weapon in many respects, than a sword. Especially if you aren't fighting something that can easily be cut. Or using a more precise weapon than a unwieldy hammer.
This is one of the most discussed subjects amongst my friends when we're talking about HZD. We all agree that the lack of melee weapons is a little off from what would actually be in a tribal society. Primitive societies have done a large use of daggers, small swords and from a huge array of sizes, and this is something that is very rare to see in HZD. I wish we could make use of a dagger or a short sword in the game. I know it wouldn't be that much effective against machines but in human x human combats it would be nice. Can you imagine how cool it would be to have the option to perform combos with them? I would like to see that.
Hi! Nice video, i find it interesting you didn' talk about the ice rail and the stormslinger. Aloy uses them as range weapons but the first version of them looks like they could be used as spears as well.
this is what i wanna to hear..the lore of history related 'bout ancients,banuk figures and origins of metal flowers for example..or like Nora's spears? Ordinary hi-quality metal farmed or Oseram's crafting ability of melting that metal and forge a new one...
@@151daze yes!! they dont do it all the time ive noticed mostly when they first start attacking or something (sorry its been awhile i got platinum months ago) and i screen shared/recorded every time i heard it so i can share if youd like - really curious if they just recycled safety bot parts, if they were originally designed to help transport materials then later be used as safety bots etc
well the melee combat in HZD is borderline garbage soi can see why guerilla focused on range weapons, id like to see them improve mele combat as fighting humans felt stupid.
Could you cover why we Havnt seen humanoid machines and its implications. Why not make machines smart enough to deal with the humans or even command other machines?
thats slightly addressed in game, i forgot which of the prime members but one of them had said Gaia creating the machines were like tributes to past life that had been lost completely to extinction done by Gaia bc the loss of their species was saddening to her. so i imagine even with the faro plague being successful initially, gaia knew there would be future life for human so need to create tribute to what will be reborn
@@Crimson209 I understand why Gaia didn't make humanoid machines. What I'm wondering is why Hephaestus hasn't made them as combat units like the stalker, saw tooth, and thunderjaw models. Hephaestus is free to make whatever it wants or has to to protect its machines. So why not make something that can get the job done.

Aye same here.

Can’t express how excited I get whenever you guys upload! Thank you so much :)

Oseram's great battle axe would be great to see in combat,though..

YES! This is a topic I've been fascinated with for a while!
Can’t wait to see where the journey is going to take us in the next chapter...
@Rabdom Side Quest weapons in this game are amazing hope you do the part 2

fantastic video as always these are very helpful for my presentation about the game
Thanks so much! What's your presentation about specifically?
@@RandomSideQuest all about the game but ill try to explain as much as possible in the seven minutes they give me
Very cool, best of luck to you!
@@RandomSideQuest thank you very much!!
i would love something like a sword in the sequel
I wish we had the option to use the carja sabre sword.
Can you make a video about air combat against the Faro bots
And about the crashed airplanes
Hope they make more variety of weapon 8n HRD 2
You should do a video on why the shell walkers say “911 what’s your emergency” if you haven’t heard it I’ve recorded gameplay of it saying it
Brooklynn Renee what? Really going to test

@@151daze also heard it a lot in the hunting grounds for the stealth trials
Updates PLEASE!!! Next DLC I want the Rocket-Booster Hammer!!!
👏👏👏👍

you are supposed to act like a silent hunter, hunters rarely every fight in melee, so no point in making it more complex
