Which self-limitations can I put on my next dark souls1/3/bloodborne run to make it actually interesting?

The first and second ones are better concepts than like 60% of trick weapons actually in game
The third one is just retarded though

This doesn't add much challenge, but I always enjoy starting as deprived, and only allowing myself to use the gear I pick up from enemies. At least in the early game

any more of these?

>a giant pair of scissors
you were supposed to post something better, not worse.

Nah, I only have a laptop with shitty videocard so I play on ps. Anyway, I gonna try no guns run, I guess.

This one looks really nice, not as cheap as other fanarts.

giant scissors are always great and would fit perfectly into the bb universe

I really liked this one.

>sword into other sword, but different scaling
0% originality, boring garbage

>Bloodborne: no guns run
Isn't that just a normal str build run once you get something like the Whirligig Saw? Not upgrading health is a better challenge, it turns pretty much the entire DLC and the latter regular bosses into a forced no damage run.

play with the donkey kong bongo controller

It definitely looks cooler than running around with fucking scissors, have your mother taught you nothing?

great idea and design

then why not make a no damage run in the first place?

roman gladiators used scissors

Dota already did this with spirit breaker

>swing flail
>light goes out
shit, but nice digits

Fuck so much waste potential

>Mimics were suppose to put the player on guard
>Never change from chests so everyone just swings at them the minute they see them

by your boring no fun allowed faggotry logic, we never would have had pizzacutter, wheel, or kos parasite. not him btw
scissors fit the theme of the game perfectly in a "stories Yharnam mothers tell the children to scare them straight" kind of way

gladiator scissor != modern shearing scissors

that's only one possible illustration, historians actually don't know exactly what the scissor gladiator looked like

Doesn't really matter, because Scissor was the name for the type of gladiator and not the weapon they used.

>you don't even have to repair your weapons. Disgusting.
Yeah, because those 100 souls you had to spend every 4 hours to completely restore your equipment was such a game changer.

It's an awful idea through and through. Its impractical in like 3 different ways.

This. Hope Miyazaki bodyslammed the dude who drew it through a table.

A no damage run is on a completely separate prism of autism compared to most other challenge runs, since avoiding every single bit of chip damage in the game is a motherfucker. No health upgrades is pretty fun, although probably a bit easier than you'd expect since if you're good enough at the game to be considering a challenge run in the first place you're likely good enough to demolish most of the game with all of your stats dumped into offense.

I think the only time I had to use repair powder in 1 was when I was using moonlight sword,,repairing weapons was always a pointless few second interaction at a bonfire or smith

Why there's not a single scissorblade in souls? Even salt&sanctuary has them.

the Romans actually had scissors though (cisoria), and the name of scissors is derived from latin

but there is

Yeah, but again. Scissor is either the name of the gladiator or the weird gauntlet weapon he wielded. There is no evidence suggesting the arbelas/scissor used a pair of scissors as a weapon.

>There is no evidence suggesting the arbelas/scissor used a pair of scissors as a weapon
There's no evidence suggesting the weird gauntlet guy was the scissor either. So I don't know why you're saying the scissor gladiator definitely wielded a bladed gauntlet when it's just as likely he wielded some other bladed form of weapon. Shears were a common Roman household implement, it would make sense for a gladiator to wield them just as they wielded other tool implements such as the retiarius' nets (fishing) and tridents (fishing), or the arbelas' shoemaking leather cutting blade

and in fact, the weird gauntlet thing more than likely was the arbelas, not the scissor.
eleggo.net/blog/2016/12/19/the-roman-scissor-gladiator-weapon-or-aka-return-of-the-arbelos

so that means the scissor almost certainly didn't look like , and that the image you linked was actually an arbelas

Well he got his (you)

These fan mock up weapons really show how great the aesthetics of blooodborne are, because the attempts at recreating it are terrible.

What is it with that one guy who has been posting about scissors in BB threads since release? Is it the same guy who always posts about wanting to play a pugilist monk in character classes threads?

Is this a keyblade thread?

in DS1 I did a run using no shield and tried to partial parry pretty much everything. I still rolled occasionally, but usually just partial parried everything. it was fun.

He wasn't expressing frustration, he was enthusing for more mimic objects, but did so using a lot of hamfisted typos giving the impression that anyone who asks for such a thing is a gibbering idiot.

Theres an overhaul mod for ds1 that changes a bunch of weapon stats and properties as well as enemy placement, It combined with another stat overhaul mod, I forget which one had it, But one of them let certain medium shields do a bash instead of a parry, buffed bash damage, and i think a faster animation than usual
Its super fun to do a no roll perfect block and bash based run, and you get to do it with new enemy and item placements

DONT

DS3 is supposed to be the deeper RPG though

Bloodborne has better locations, art, bosses, combat, is less linear and has more optional content.
