Thanks for the spoilers, GAF.

We are absolutely not going to change this thread title. Spoiler culture is out of control. The name of a weapon from the previous games is not a """""""""""""spoiler""""""""""""" for the current game. It's not even clear from the video if the fucking weapon is in the third game. It's not a spoiler for Final Fantasy XV to say the word "Ultima Weapon". Also this video is a paid commercial paid for by Namco Bandai to promote the game. Grow up you big babies. You should be talking about this with your therapist, not thread whining.

If you can't drag yourself off the internet for five minutes to protect your bubble then request a ban and we'll be happy to process it.

Immature post right here.

Many people are upset by the thread title, and you won't change t because *you* don't classify it as a spoiler? Big fans of the lore and the game itself have already claimed that this is spoiler territory.

Jeez, can a mod change the title...

Quite a lot of people would consider it a spoiler.

Thanks!

At this point it'd be less work to just change the title so that people would actually talk about the video...

People shouldn't have to bend their way out of discussing things about the game to avoid violating your weird self-imposed information blackout.

If spoilers are such a big deal then stay off places where discussion happens.

You know, I got spoiled by the title too and I was bothered by it.

For the total amount of five seconds, until I saw FUCKING ARTORIAS' GREATSWORD BROUGHT TO LIFE.

I ain't even mad.

The sword actually being in the game.

It's also the name of the video in question, if this showed up in your youtube "suggested videos" list would you write google in a huff?

Grow up.

Tagging this so I can watch later. All of their other weapons from what I've seen have been awesome. Can't wait to watch this.

It's the name of a weapon (one that's been in all the Dark Souls games), not a plot point.
It's not in Dark Souls 2. Wut.
Yes I know about the Majestic Greatsword from the DLC but it's still not called that. And hey it was actually kinda cool to find the Majestic Greatsword, read the description, go "hmmm....", try the moveset in the left hand and go "holy shit!". Just sayin'.

This is a prime example of why spoiler culture is absolutely a problem: to actually find out whether or not the """""""""""""spoiler""""" they're complaining about is actually a spoiler, they need to deliberately watch the video that they claim they don't want to watch for fear of being spoiled, which they do and then promptly get angry about being spoiled.
Well, one might decide "oh I'll watch it since it's not spoilerish as people say" and then decide that they were wrong. *shrugs*

I will play this on 12, never seen it, but i can tell, by now, that there will be a moonlight greatsword in ds3. Spoilers? No, magic.
C'mon guys.
 
Its from Darwin Souls 1. So who cares about spoilers.

They did an amazing job on this and people should be talking about the workmanship and nor passing and moaning about spoilers.

I mean really Lightsabers will be in Star Wars episode 8...spoiler? Lmao

I'm so far past trying to reason with spoiler jihadists. If you are bothered by this, please leave. I speak on behalf of the half-dozen moderators I talked to before I made the post in this thread: We officially do not care about your tantrum. This has gone on too long. If you want a media blackout, we will not be helping you. If that's a problem, go somewhere else. We put up with whining comic book fans melting down at the news that Thanos was in Guardians of the Galaxy. We can't put up with any more.

May I recommend Reddit's Dark Souls community:
https://www.reddit.com/r/darksouls/

Just for reference, they removed the first posting of this video because it was a spoiler. That will be a nice safe place where you can F5 Dark Souls news for 18 hours a day while simultaneously not being exposed to any information about Dark Souls. Although they did allow the video to be posted without the numeral 3 in the title. Removing the numeral 3 makes it not a spoiler. Literally a number is now a spoiler. This is the level of fragility we are dealing with.

Absolutely fantastic build. I can't believe how good it looks and it's properly massive. I like that the new team doesn't shy away from forging huge weapons by hand (that greatsword from Berserk also comes to mind).

Guys the sword has been in DS1 and 2. It wouldn't be shocked if it was in 3. That would like being upset that someone said Havels Armor and the Moonlight Greatsword are in. They've been in all of them.

(I haven't played DS3 or seen any indication any of these are in, but it's common sense).

Then you will notice is the Dark Souls 1 sword being featured in the video.
 
Isn't the title of the game "Dark Souls III" a spoiler? The Dark Soul was a major plot point in Dark Souls, and I swear if it shows up in Dark Souls III and the title spoiled it for me...

This is why you should have international launches, Namco. FUCK.

Boohoo?

It's the name of a freaking sword in a game where the plot consists, really, of like 200 lines of recorded dialogue and a bunch of weirdly esoteric item descriptions.

Is this posting the end of the game? Is this posting the description? Is this posting ANYTHING other than the NAME OF A SWORD IN THE GAME THAT HAS BEEN IN THE OTHER TWO?

Then stop kvetching. You post an a video game enthusiasts internet forum, the most non-essential thing to everyday life possibly ever invented.

If it bugs you, don't post on GAF for 8 days.

I've played the game and I'm not even sure if the dumb sword is even in it lol. Wouldn't surprise me if it is because why wouldn't it be?

This is probably the best they've done actually. Just a lot of intricate details on it. Looks great!

Spoilers really? Everything is seemingly a spoiler nowadays, it's ridiculous. If knowing whose sword this is actually considered a spoiler to someone, (which has no real meaning or story behind it), I think the Internet is pretty much a no go. There's Spoilers and then there's being ridiculous.

It's in it, it's also attainable really, really early in the game and SPOILER ALERT EVERYBODY how you obtain it has basically no plot or lore implications.

Didn't you see the ad campaign for this? They forged the sword to advertise DS3, nothing was said about the sword actually being in the game. They had it in some game expo because it's a recognizable souls weapon.
I also don't know if it's actually in game. Wouldn't read this thread though, someone's bound to spoil it if it is.

Or at least stay the hell off of gaming news sites and gaming related sites for a while. If I don't want a movie spoiled, I stay the hell away from any and all movie related discussion pages and forums. Cant have your cake and eat it too.

Wait... You've PLAYED the GAME!?

Did you just spoil the primary method of interacting with this product? You son of a bitch.

Amazing work as always, I think I saw that specific sword used in the IGN video over 3 months ago and I expected it to be done by these guys.

About that spoiler shenanigans: while it does not bother me the slightest bit, I can easily see how some people could be annoyed by that. Seeing which iconic items/places/NPCs make a return is a huge part of the experience while playing Souls, at least to me.

One "oh shit it's back!" moment less. And it's NOT the same as saying that daedric weapons will make a return in TES6 :)

There's footage of it in the video.

But again, I don't care. The video is amazing.

Funny seeing all the tears when they said they only made it now because DS3 is coming out and was too much work to do earlier.
