Spears are phallic.
Freud would have something to say about all these people obsessing about them.

:lmao:
No really, I don't see any reason why spears shouldn't be in the game. Spears style is different enough from the other weapons to make it worth the effort.

there is no need whining about this. Todd has confirmed that spears will NOT be in skyrim. something about building a better combat system rather than a lot of weapons and a crappy combat system, i don't care for spears, i want a solid gameplay experience

Spears part of Lore they cant just cuted out
Spears was one of mass produced weapons in medieval and created at early stage human civilization they are symbol of hunters, spear was even more common then swords, and start loose actuality only when firepower weapons become more powerful
What reason to not implement spear in game?

Not this again...

If bardiches are in (judging from the concept art), I'll be glad. They may not be a substitute for a spear but they're great weapons! Moreover, it does add to the variety. :banana:

People liked spears because the variety was there, and then it was taken away. It's worse for Skyrim because the first time they were taken away caused a really big uproar, this time it sort of implies Bethesda didn't really care about its initial reactions. I would be intrigued to see a reaction on a Spears DLC!

True...but probably no more phallic than those gorgeous daggers are.

Why would anyone want to swing a spear? A mace hurts more. Or a sword. Can't shoot a fireball from a sword, though.

Because i can stab someone in the guts or face at twice the distance of a sword. Keeping charging enemies at a distance and giving me a better defence.

Actually you can, enchant your sword with Cast When Used spell, equip sword and spell will be added to your spellbook.

Spears now more popular then before, since they have more references now then before for example like new movies thats feature spears as weapon for heroes like katanas before.
Second spears will add more variability of weapons of game, Oblivion has small variation of weapons the mostly utilize same animations thats make combat dull, since new weapons mean new tactics in combat
Third spears really fit to Skyrim setting, spear was one of most popular weapons of Norse warriors and hunters, Odin the ruler of Asgard wield magical spear Gungnir
At last spears are great to fight large beast, clovis spears wielded by hand of human drive to extinction prehistoric beasts, Mammons, Sabre tooth tigers and large bears confirmed to be in Skyrim how you as hunter will confront them?
Besides spear awesome weapon for dealing with Dragons.

Ideally, you would poke with a spear.

Posts went away.

If you aren't going to contribute to the thread, don't post.

If all you are going to do is spam "Not this again" don't post.

It takes less effort to ignore a thread you aren't interested in and consider redundant than it does to make a post in the thread saying so.

Making a post that consists of only :facepalm: is spamming.

I know this topic has been done to death. But I do think that one of Bethesda's biggest mistakes has been the reduction of weapon types. We lost spears, thrown weapons, and crossbows, all of which give characters unique options in combat, especially ranged which now has ONE type of weapon.

Why not get rid of fire spells? We already have frost and shock spells.
Why not get rid of helmets? We already have cuirasses, pauldrons, boots, and bracers.

This is, unquestionably, simplification of the game for no reason other than laziness or poor planning. I realize it takes time to model, animate, texture, and balance new weapons, especially whole new classes. But you could find the time in 5 years if you really tried. And there's no reason not to.
