I use the swords most of the time never liked then axes they kind of suck, I use the spear sometimes but not all the time and the staff for my mages ^_^ but it depends on what characters I'm using in the game I can really work with any weapon thou.
what kind of weapon do you like to use on an RPG game? i mean like sword, poleaxe, hammer... tell why you like this kind of weapon, no listing.
here is a list of basic kinds of weapons that some RPGs offer:
basic:
sword
axe
hammer
staff
mace
advanced:
longsword
poleaxe
warhammer
spear
great:
greatsword
greataxe
greatspear
greathammer
also magic, but say a specific spell and say WHY you like it. and not just "it does tons of damage"
this isn't all inclusive but most weapons fall into one of those categories.
i personally like poleaxes myself because i love their reach while keeping a relatively light weight. and i also like the fact that most have a piercing tip along with an axe head at the end..
so, what do you all think?
edit: one thing i must make clear is the GUNS and any other futuristic wepaons don't count as they make any sword fight horribly uneven.

come on, tell us why. what do you like about those weapons that makes you use them? why don't you like axe? no spaming or listing here PLZ!

I've always liked smashing ppl with really big swords, either demon/devil possesed or not. Fun for when you gotta sweep through a whole bunch of undead or Gnolls.
I've also used two-sword style with balanced greatswords( with a half-orc that had 22 str.).
Swords always just appealed to me. I've always wanted to learn how to spin a blade around my body like that blue demon on the first DBZ movie.

i played a paladin once, i always used a greatword, tons of fun. but i just love poleaxes for the reach, their way underpowered in D&D though.

I use swords and spears mostly for power and ranged attacks, most of the time I lure with the swords men and then go for attacks from the back or side with the spear and magic just to kill fast, I rarely attack with staffs on mages because its just not strong enough.
Usually my characters are buzzsaws of death, especially those that have all those nifty two-weapon fighting feats.
With my most powerful character, I was pulling shxt from dynasty warriors, smashing lev. 15s with two to four strikes, but then again, I had a devil-possesed sword and a sword with lightning and vibration enchantments on it.
I also had a sai that had a dancing enchantment on it. I'd throw that out there first, then went "buzzsaw o bloody death" on my foes.
