Aren't those boots required for part of a speedrun/glitch....making you just tall enough to make a jump you shoukdnt be able to make even though it was intended useless
The reason there are 900 Koroks is because they want you to be able to find lots of them wherever you go, even if you aren't looking too hard. And the reason why the reward for finding all of them has no mechanical value is because they don't want people to feel forced to find them all (which I imagine most people would not find fun) just to get the reward.
Your first point makes sense, although I don't agree with the second. I would think the turd is just for trolling some that is a completionist to this degree
The rolled paper and ruined books have a use at the Atronach forge in the College of Winterhold. You can turn them into one of four scrolls or their corresponding tomes depending on whether you are using the rolled scrolls or ruined books.
You can also probably sell the embalming tools for early game money and the torch could be a light source (either early game or as a last resort or something, some caves are pretty dark)
Souvenirs of Reprisal aren't challenging to find/farm. You can farm 30 of them from the Harpies in Ariamis in under an hour. They have like a 6% drop rate without the Gold Serpent Ring/Symbol of Avarice.
The Giants sword is useless at first until you actually take the time and finish the side quest the big Goron gives you then he will make it PERMANENTLY unbreakable!!! So it's not the most useless sword it's actually the most O.P weapons in the game!

In bloodstained the chair is honestly one of the most useful shards in both casual and speed running playthroughs… It speeds up MP recovery. At higher levels can recover more MP than you can feasibly use at once. In speed runs though… ooo boy allows you to completely disable gravity.
@@Bloodsin1 This channel is great if you have a fetish for butchered anything. The level of research they put into the topics is puzzling. On one hand they dig up stuff you'd need ages to find yourself, on the other hand they miss the simplest details about that stuff.
It has another use too, equip Force and Chamaleon, invade someone, make sure they didn't see you, drop the pendant by a cliff, use Chamaleon and wait. When the greedy host see that shining item and pick it up, you go behind and use Force. That's the most usefull thing to do with it.
reminds me of the "amulet of annihilation" in Secret of Evermore. it doesn't really DO anything, but you can trade it for equipment or use it to pay for a ride across the desert! a shady merchant will try to sell you one for 10,000 gold. DON'T do it, you can buy them for 100 EACH later!
I would've sworn you would say what I came here to suggest, which is the "Tiny Being's Ring" I don't know if they ever fixed it but when I played the first time in the gift description it said it regenerated health, which it did not.

I only hold onto health and strength potions in Skyrim (Cure disease potions too if I for some reason refuse to play a vampire/werewolf), I keep health potions in my favorites menu so I can heal myself at pretty much any time, including when I get ragdolled, helps quite a lot when fighting Karstaag for example. I hold onto strength potions so that I can fast travel to a safe house or merchant after getting overencumbered. It is nice that you can still walk while overencumbered though

The summon chair ability is actually one of the most useful abilities in speedrunning the game. It is used in a glitch to put your character out of bounds. It's really cool. Look it up!
most quest rewards in Skyrim were essentially useless items, even the big artifacts, coz they were always levelled and soon to be outclassed, and as such were very underwhelming and usually just sold. Like Dawnbreaker, here's this legendary daedric artifact of immense godly power!!! eh, it's no better than this refined iron dagger with a fire enchantment
Actually I disagree. I had so many runs in that game that I knew which artifacts to get early on to be able to push stronger enemies. I play on expert difficulty so I needed everything strong I could get my hands on even if it was temporarily. One example is the savior's hide which can be enhanced for really high stats.
And think about what game this is. Trolling isn't just common in dark souls, it's a fundamental part of the series and encouraged in the online community. Anyone who's fallen for one of the "try jumping" messages should have known he was fucking with us.
Now im completely sure that Gameranx never played any videogame ever.... You DONT use the Giant Knife EVER!!! You give it to a secret blacksmith and turn it into the Biggoron Sword which the strongest sword in the game.... And the Were Bane is actualy a very strong weapon when you use its SA Flurry of Blows against Heavy Armored enemies (Owl Knight, Warg Rider, Armor Lord and Guardian) dealing massive damage. Of course there are better weapons out there but since this weapon can be farmed in the normal castle.... Oh and there are only 2 Rapiers in the game and the Were Bane is one of them. Get your shit together gameranx and stop being posers.
The chair actually does do something. It increases your mp charge while its in use. At first the buff isnt noticable, but max out the chair and put on some mp charge boosting accessories and you basically have infinite mp.
I still love the ultimate troll move on behalf of Nintendo regarding Hestu’s Gift. They did this because the game is supposed to be about exploration and stumbling upon korok seeds, not hunkering down and stressfully seeking each and every last one out out of sheer completionistic compulsion.
Yeah based on previous videos they have done they tend to not do a whole lot of research into their videos so they probably don't know you can have a permanent version
I assume he does. The Biggoron's sword is exactly what makes the Giant's Knife worthless. If the Biggoron's Sword didn't exist, the Giant's Knife would arguably still be useful, but seeing as there's a permanent option that costs 0 rupees, the Giant's Knife is never useful.
The friendship bracelet in Borderlands 2 was rumored to be a nod to the Dark Souls pendant. Only available from an npc that randomly spawned in one room, it made a visual effect on your character in coop games that would become more obvious with more players in your party.
The Giant's Knife isn't completely useless, as it is possible to purchase a new one from Medigoron (the Goron you purchase it from who is also Biggoron's brother) if it breaks! Basically, it is a breakable version of the Biggoron Sword (which later became breakable in BotW), which Link can obtain by completing the Adult Timeline trading quest, which ends with Biggoron forging the Biggoron Sword which functions as an unbreakable version of the Giant's Knife! Once the Biggoron Sword is obtained, Link can no longer purchase the Giant's Knife from Medigoron, who will point out that the Biggoron Sword is a far superior weapon! Basically, the Giant's Knife is somewhat useful, especially if you haven't acquired the Biggoron Sword & can be useful against Phantom Ganon & Volvagia as your shield isn't all that useful against most main dungeons! The Giant's Knife has a longer reach, thus it can be useful for Deadman's Volley (deflecting the energy balls used by Phantom Ganon)!
I haven’t played these games so forgive me if I sound stupid, but how can it be useful in any dungeon or against any boss if it’s going to break after a few hits? Do you just mean it’ll be more useful for those few hits? I mean that makes sense I guess, if you buy it and don’t equip it till you get to the boss then use it at the start to get as much damage as possible out of it, but again having to go back and buy it again to use again seems like a lot of extra work if, I’m assuming, you can get through those dungeons and bosses with another weapons that doesn’t break anyway…
@MIAsuxdonkey you give it to biggoron and he turns it into an unbreakable sword the biggoron sword. You use it during the final boss fight against Ganon who throws your master sword outside the barrier. So you aren't unarmed and only relying on the bow after that.
No that is the Broken Goron's sword and you dont get it until like half way through the trade sequence for the Biggorons Sword. Giants knife doesn't really factor into the trade sequence at all, it is really just foreshadowing the Biggoron sword.
No, it can't. You go through a trade quest to get the Bigoron Sword which is an indestructible version. Part of the quest is to trade for a "Broken Goron Sword," this is NOT the Giant's Knife and has nothing to do with the Giant's knife. You are not remembering the game correctly.
The zelda sword IS useful, after it breaks you can have it fixed permanently! It shouldnt be on this list!!!! How about breath of the wild?? Almost every goddamn swords breaks in that game!
giant's knife and biggoron sword are unrelated. You get the broken biggoron sword from the middle of a trading sequence. You never need to get the knife to get the sword.
For anyone who doesn't know, the broken giants knife in Ocarina is used to start a quest to get the true goron sword. I'm thinking he just meant that breakable version. Yes I'm here over a year later, and yes I'm sure someone has already mentioned it.
Yes I did trip. No I won’t reconsider life choices. And I was born in 2000 using 1998 slang is really of 2000 babies slang so thanks I guess but it can’t have it back
Yeah right... First of all that thing is supposed to be a gag item but i actualy use it when there are virals mixed together with regular zombies, luring them away and diminishing the threat... You can trip all you want.
1. You can get an unbreakable giant's knife in loz:oot by doing a side quest. So buying a breakable sword for 200 is pointless. 2. You can use the pendant in dark souls to trade snuggly at the northern asylum (the tutorial area). He gives you Souvenir of Reprisal in exchange for the pendant.
Honorable Mention: Doom Eternal’s “Unmakyr” This weapon was a big letdown due to having to complete 6 different “slayer gates” in different missions just to get Empyreon Keys. Once you do all that, you learn it shares ammo with the “BFG”, an astoundingly better weapon.

No it doesn't. The one you buy is useless. You get one from the carpenter leader and you fix that one. It's a key item, not the shitty useless one you buy and break.
also, blade of east from Fallout new vegas is an incredible weapon, but its pretry useless since you get it only at the point where the game is already over
The "Proof of Omega" from FFVIII. You spend all that time killing the Omega Weapon and the reward is basically an item saying you beat him... But it's a single player game so who is even going to see it???
The secret treasure in the original fable, the one where you have to collect all the map scraps, and solve the Riddle, and the ultimate weapon turned out to be a useless frying pan.
The whole point of the giants knife is to tease you about the existence of the biggorons sword... which if you didn’t use a guide is pretty tricky to acquire... did you guys not know about that? Seems weird you wouldn’t mention it
exactly! the whole point is to do the side quest so it becomes indestructible, also deals more damage than the Master Sword making it the strongest sword in the game, so pretty far from useless, there's a similar quest on Majora's Mask with the Razor Sword that then can be upgraded into the Glided Sword
The broken Giants Knife does make the fight against Dark Link easier. When you swing your sword, the miniboss is programmed to jump on top of it. It tries to do the same thing with the broken Giants Knife, but can't because there's nothing to jump on. This leaves Dark Link wide open. Couple this with a 3 heart run (Dark Link always has the same max health as the player) and the fight becomes almost as easy to cheese as the Zelda 2 Dark Link fight.
I actually loved how Hetsu's gift is a piece of golden poop. It's a great troll of completionists and helped teach me to just play games as long as they're fun, rather than feeling like I needed to collect everything like completing chores. Plus it seems like it's Nintendo mocking other open-world collectothons by showing what a waste of time it is. The fun should be in the journey, not just the loot. Pretty appropriate for a game that tossed out and reinvented a lot of open-world game conventions.

Exp Calibur- Dying Light This weapon has ONLY 7 durability. It is like the great sword in Zelda. It is a really powerful weapon but after a few hits the weapon is broken. By the way Exp Calibur is a secret weapon in a game. You have to go to an exact location to find it
I like the Swimsuit reward. So often the rewards for the toughest areas are really overpowered. But since you just beat the toughest areas, you don’t need anything anymore. You’re obviously strong enough, and are as useless as a swimsuit. But at least the Swimsuit makes me smile.
@@Greenwood4727 Eh, they're all right, but how useful they are really depends on your team composition. Especially in the early games, unless you were using TMs/HMs on them, they had a couple big hitting abilities, sure, but they were a Water/Flying pokemon with no water or flying attacks. Plus, you either had to pay the daycare to level the magikarp up, or you had to grind forever with Magikarp in your first spot and then switching out to a pokemon that wasn't worthless.
The giants knife was 100% worth it. You can do a quest to repair it and will never break again. Forever doubling your dmg and increasing your sword reach
I love the idea that there's absolutely no reward to collecting that many collectables. Collectables are one of the things I dislike the most in games that have them it's like "oh hey our world is so uninteresting we have to bribe you to explore it"
If this is about the korok seeds, then i wouldnt say its a bribe to explore. Its an incentive yeah but the reason there are so many, was specifically designed in consideration that people wont collect all of them but there are enough in the world for you to find easily. The shyt gift as the end kind of also cements that. Its like Nintendo is saying 'you werent supposed to get them all idiot'.
i think the chair thung in bloodstained was just meant to be a humorous reference to symphony of the night , because alucard could sit in the chairs. fun fact = the chairs you can summon are randomized from a pool of all the different chairs you have "seen"/"sat in" throughout the game. the more different chairs you have "seen", the more possible chairs can be summoned

It speeds up MP recovery. At higher levels can recover more MP than you can feasibly use at once. In speed runs though… ooo boy allows you to completely disable gravity.
Actually in bloodstained sitting in chairs gives added mana regen. Not completely useless being able to summon a chair to regain mana
Hestu's name: H-E-S-T-U

@@Bloodsin1 This channel is great if you have a fetish for butchered anything. The level of research they put into the topics is puzzling. On one hand they dig up stuff you'd need ages to find yourself, on the other hand they miss the simplest details about that stuff.
The Dark Souls Pendant does have a use, only one
Trade it to Snuggly the Crow for a Souvenir of Reprisal
It has another use too, equip Force and Chamaleon, invade someone, make sure they didn't see you, drop the pendant by a cliff, use Chamaleon and wait. When the greedy host see that shining item and pick it up, you go behind and use Force. That's the most usefull thing to do with it.

Listen here, I, Siegward Of Catarina names "rubish" as the most useless item in all of Lordran

Very true, You sir, deserve a Siegbrew. *gives Siegbrew*
I would've sworn you would say what I came here to suggest, which is the "Tiny Being's Ring" I don't know if they ever fixed it but when I played the first time in the gift description it said it regenerated health, which it did not. I remember being pretty upset when I started the game for the first time and my gift wasn't doing what it said it would.
Have you ever walked near a white birch, only to be struck by a great arrow?
in all of lothric, to be precise, siegward is a character in dark souls 3 which takes place in lothric, onion man in dark souls 1 is called siegmeyer.
Potions in every rpg ever. I hoard them because I might need them and then when I have a million they only heal like 1% hp.
I only hold onto health and strength potions in Skyrim (Cure disease potions too if I for some reason refuse to play a vampire/werewolf), I keep health potions in my favorites menu so I can heal myself at pretty much any time, including when I get ragdolled, helps quite a lot when fighting Karstaag for example. I hold onto strength potions so that I can fast travel to a safe house or merchant after getting overencumbered. It is nice that you can still walk while overencumbered though

Bloodstained: the chair is a very useful item when you sit in the summon chair it speeds you are magic Point regeneration
Big if true
@@adamtwelve occasionally it spawns a chair that does nothing or one that has unknown effect. But the majority of the time its a way to super speed up magic regen.
Omg this dude put this on 2nd place!
It is like one of the esential shards for magic only build!
Expecially now in randomizer where you sometimes need to kick-jump to progress!
Dude lost all legitimacy with this...
The summon chair ability is actually one of the most useful abilities in speedrunning the game. It is used in a glitch to put your character out of bounds. It's really cool. Look it up!
LOL WUT?
most quest rewards in Skyrim were essentially useless items, even the big artifacts, coz they were always levelled and soon to be outclassed, and as such were very underwhelming and usually just sold.
Like Dawnbreaker, here's this legendary daedric artifact of immense godly power!!! eh, it's no better than this refined iron dagger with a fire enchantment
Definitely. This made me want to hold off on quests until later in the game, just so I could get a little more from the rewards.
I get wabbjack early in the game just to use it as a decoration
randomized dawnguard quest rewards, random enchanted gear that won't be useful to your character build most of the time.
Actually I disagree. I had so many runs in that game that I knew which artifacts to get early on to be able to push stronger enemies. I play on expert difficulty so I needed everything strong I could get my hands on even if it was temporarily. One example is the savior's hide which can be enhanced for really high stats.
Azura's Star/Black Star, Ebony Mail, Oghma Infinium, and the Ring of Hircine are all really useful.
I would pick "nothing" or the "pendent".
Come on people think about how he said that...
And think about what game this is. Trolling isn't just common in dark souls, it's a fundamental part of the series and encouraged in the online community.
Anyone who's fallen for one of the "try jumping" messages should have known he was fucking with us.

Now im completely sure that Gameranx never played any videogame ever....
You DONT use the Giant Knife EVER!!! You give it to a secret blacksmith and turn it into the Biggoron Sword which the strongest sword in the game....
And the Were Bane is actualy a very strong weapon when you use its SA Flurry of Blows against Heavy Armored enemies (Owl Knight, Warg Rider, Armor Lord and Guardian) dealing massive damage. Of course there are better weapons out there but since this weapon can be farmed in the normal castle.... Oh and there are only 2 Rapiers in the game and the Were Bane is one of them. Get your shit together gameranx and stop being posers.
you can also use the broken goron sword to craft the biggoron sword, but you need to go on a fetch quest for a bunch of items
The chair actually does do something. It increases your mp charge while its in use. At first the buff isnt noticable, but max out the chair and put on some mp charge boosting accessories and you basically have infinite mp.
I still love the ultimate troll move on behalf of Nintendo regarding Hestu’s Gift. They did this because the game is supposed to be about exploration and stumbling upon korok seeds, not hunkering down and stressfully seeking each and every last one out out of sheer completionistic compulsion.

I wonder if Falcon knows about the Biggoron’s Sword, which is a giant’s knife that never breaks
If you repair the hilt for 200 rupies you get locked out of the sidequest to fix it into the real big goron sword.. soo probably they dont know.
Yeah based on previous videos they have done they tend to not do a whole lot of research into their videos so they probably don't know you can have a permanent version
@@VioletTentacles lol oops, i was gonna say i remember it being badass
I assume he does. The Biggoron's sword is exactly what makes the Giant's Knife worthless. If the Biggoron's Sword didn't exist, the Giant's Knife would arguably still be useful, but seeing as there's a permanent option that costs 0 rupees, the Giant's Knife is never useful.
Came here to say this! It's simply a quest step item

The friendship bracelet in Borderlands 2 was rumored to be a nod to the Dark Souls pendant. Only available from an npc that randomly spawned in one room, it made a visual effect on your character in coop games that would become more obvious with more players in your party.
The Giant's Knife isn't completely useless, as it is possible to purchase a new one from Medigoron (the Goron you purchase it from who is also Biggoron's brother) if it breaks! Basically, it is a breakable version of the Biggoron Sword (which later became breakable in BotW), which Link can obtain by completing the Adult Timeline trading quest, which ends with Biggoron forging the Biggoron Sword which functions as an unbreakable version of the Giant's Knife! Once the Biggoron Sword is obtained, Link can no longer purchase the Giant's Knife from Medigoron, who will point out that the Biggoron Sword is a far superior weapon!
Basically, the Giant's Knife is somewhat useful, especially if you haven't acquired the Biggoron Sword & can be useful against Phantom Ganon & Volvagia as your shield isn't all that useful against most main dungeons! The Giant's Knife has a longer reach, thus it can be useful for Deadman's Volley (deflecting the energy balls used by Phantom Ganon)!
I haven’t played these games so forgive me if I sound stupid, but how can it be useful in any dungeon or against any boss if it’s going to break after a few hits? Do you just mean it’ll be more useful for those few hits? I mean that makes sense I guess, if you buy it and don’t equip it till you get to the boss then use it at the start to get as much damage as possible out of it, but again having to go back and buy it again to use again seems like a lot of extra work if, I’m assuming, you can get through those dungeons and bosses with another weapons that doesn’t break anyway…
@MIAsuxdonkey you give it to biggoron and he turns it into an unbreakable sword the biggoron sword. You use it during the final boss fight against Ganon who throws your master sword outside the barrier. So you aren't unarmed and only relying on the bow after that.
if the character was female the hell temple reward would not be on this list.
Fuck yeah.
The giants knife can be reforged when you have done some sidequests so it becomes indestructible
Yeah, it's called the biggeron sword and it's awesome
No that is the Broken Goron's sword and you dont get it until like half way through the trade sequence for the Biggorons Sword. Giants knife doesn't really factor into the trade sequence at all, it is really just foreshadowing the Biggoron sword.
@@TheChronicKarma You can do the Biggorons sidequests or use the Giant Knife. One is free and the other is not but you have a little bit less work
No, it can't. You go through a trade quest to get the Bigoron Sword which is an indestructible version. Part of the quest is to trade for a "Broken Goron Sword," this is NOT the Giant's Knife and has nothing to do with the Giant's knife. You are not remembering the game correctly.
The zelda sword IS useful, after it breaks you can have it fixed permanently! It shouldnt be on this list!!!! How about breath of the wild?? Almost every goddamn swords breaks in that game!
giant's knife and biggoron sword are unrelated. You get the broken biggoron sword from the middle of a trading sequence. You never need to get the knife to get the sword.
The fact it breaks and have to go length to fix it yeah its pretty much worthless
“Just Kidding Who Cares” beyond funny, that was legendary
For anyone who doesn't know, the broken giants knife in Ocarina is used to start a quest to get the true goron sword. I'm thinking he just meant that breakable version. Yes I'm here over a year later, and yes I'm sure someone has already mentioned it.
I just did the same thing, and completely disagreed when he said giants knife lol. you need the broken hilt to make the proper giants knife
If the dying light antigadoid gun isn’t on here I’m goin to trip

Don’t remind me that weapon sucked 😂
Yeah right... First of all that thing is supposed to be a gag item but i actualy use it when there are virals mixed together with regular zombies, luring them away and diminishing the threat... You can trip all you want.
@@AkromaBlade thanks for the non irrelevant gaming tip!
1. You can get an unbreakable giant's knife in loz:oot by doing a side quest. So buying a breakable sword for 200 is pointless.
2. You can use the pendant in dark souls to trade snuggly at the northern asylum (the tutorial area). He gives you Souvenir of Reprisal in exchange for the pendant.
The skimpy swimsuit made me laugh, so it wasn't completely useless! :P
Where are the 80% of the items in Skyrim? Most of them are ingredients for items you can buy without any hustle
Honorable Mention: Doom Eternal’s “Unmakyr”
This weapon was a big letdown due to having to complete 6 different “slayer gates” in different missions just to get Empyreon Keys. Once you do all that, you learn it shares ammo with the “BFG”, an astoundingly better weapon.
You were able to make the giants knife unbreakable by completing a timed trial
not really, it's completely separate from the Giant's Knife, the only connection between the two is their damage output and appearance

You need the Giant’s Knife to get the Biggoron’s Sword, though. Not useless
My thoughts exactly, the giants knife leads you down the quest to get the biggoron sword
No it doesn't. The one you buy is useless. You get one from the carpenter leader and you fix that one. It's a key item, not the shitty useless one you buy and break.
I'm pretty sure the giant's knife in OOT is a joke item because Medigoron has no idea how to make a durable sword.
yeah, Biggoron says that he makes better swords
Gameranx, I think Superman 64 deserves it's own video. I always thoroughly enjoy it's inclusion in these lists.
Witcher's 3 Hattori's sword..
also, blade of east from Fallout new vegas is an incredible weapon, but its pretry useless since you get it only at the point where the game is already over
The "Proof of Omega" from FFVIII. You spend all that time killing the Omega Weapon and the reward is basically an item saying you beat him... But it's a single player game so who is even going to see it???
Same with mark of the Furyon from FFXV, you get it for beating Ifrit but you can't summon him
I think the big reason to fight Omega is to draw Eden if you didn't get it the other way. That, and just for 100%.
The secret treasure in the original fable, the one where you have to collect all the map scraps, and solve the Riddle, and the ultimate weapon turned out to be a useless frying pan.
If you augment it with some good gems it has potential to be one of the best weapons
The whole point of the giants knife is to tease you about the existence of the biggorons sword... which if you didn’t use a guide is pretty tricky to acquire... did you guys not know about that? Seems weird you wouldn’t mention it
The Giants Knife can be repaired with the side quest. 🙄
Josh Hartley the side quest makes it unbreakable
Yeah, I remember you being able to turn it into the Biggoron's sword which is unbreakable
Josh Hartley I just came on you
exactly! the whole point is to do the side quest so it becomes indestructible, also deals more damage than the Master Sword making it the strongest sword in the game, so pretty far from useless, there's a similar quest on Majora's Mask with the Razor Sword that then can be upgraded into the Glided Sword
Anthony thank you.
imagine there’s a bunch of stuffs in dark soul and it’s useless? more pain we got 😂
> Shows: Hestu
> *Falcon: "HetSu"*
In Ocarina of Time you can upgrade the broken sword through a side quest and obtain the Biggoron's Sword.
The broken Giants Knife does make the fight against Dark Link easier. When you swing your sword, the miniboss is programmed to jump on top of it. It tries to do the same thing with the broken Giants Knife, but can't because there's nothing to jump on. This leaves Dark Link wide open. Couple this with a 3 heart run (Dark Link always has the same max health as the player) and the fight becomes almost as easy to cheese as the Zelda 2 Dark Link fight.

I actually loved how Hetsu's gift is a piece of golden poop. It's a great troll of completionists and helped teach me to just play games as long as they're fun, rather than feeling like I needed to collect everything like completing chores. Plus it seems like it's Nintendo mocking other open-world collectothons by showing what a waste of time it is. The fun should be in the journey, not just the loot. Pretty appropriate for a game that tossed out and reinvented a lot of open-world game conventions.

Exp Calibur- Dying Light

There is way too many times Zelda, Dark Souls + some weird old game that very few current gamers have played in Gameranx videos.
True
I like the Swimsuit reward. So often the rewards for the toughest areas are really overpowered. But since you just beat the toughest areas, you don’t need anything anymore. You’re obviously strong enough, and are as useless as a swimsuit. But at least the Swimsuit makes me smile.

How can you have a list of useless items without mentioning the Old Rod from pretty much every Pokemon game? It literally only ever catches Magikarp!
Town map from the first game was also a waste of an item slot.
Magikarp evolve into Gyrados.. and they can be beasts
@@Greenwood4727 Eh, they're all right, but how useful they are really depends on your team composition. Especially in the early games, unless you were using TMs/HMs on them, they had a couple big hitting abilities, sure, but they were a Water/Flying pokemon with no water or flying attacks. Plus, you either had to pay the daycare to level the magikarp up, or you had to grind forever with Magikarp in your first spot and then switching out to a pokemon that wasn't worthless.
The giants knife was 100% worth it. You can do a quest to repair it and will never break again. Forever doubling your dmg and increasing your sword reach

That chair summon... is amazing. Need that irl!
I love the idea that there's absolutely no reward to collecting that many collectables. Collectables are one of the things I dislike the most in games that have them it's like "oh hey our world is so uninteresting we have to bribe you to explore it"
If this is about the korok seeds, then i wouldnt say its a bribe to explore. Its an incentive yeah but the reason there are so many, was specifically designed in consideration that people wont collect all of them but there are enough in the world for you to find easily. The shyt gift as the end kind of also cements that. Its like Nintendo is saying 'you werent supposed to get them all idiot'.

i think the chair thung in bloodstained was just meant to be a humorous reference to symphony of the night , because alucard could sit in the chairs.
fun fact = the chairs you can summon are randomized from a pool of all the different chairs you have "seen"/"sat in" throughout the game. the more different chairs you have "seen", the more possible chairs can be summoned
I think the “Euclid C Finder” from Fallout New Vegas should have been in this list.
