I started playing Dark Souls 2 with the joke weapon: the Handmaid's Ladle.
You wanna know something funny? The damage output for when I have a ladle is 20, and the output without a weapon is 120.
A weapon does less damage than if I didn't have one at all.
You wanna know something REALLY funny? The durability of this freakin thing is so low that it breaks after 45 seconds with the first boss. And when it's broken, it does no damage to the boss. None.
... I want to kill every boss in the game with this ladle. So that means I'm going to have to figure out how to make this work.
If I knew anything about recording or streaming, I'd love to have you all join in my suffering. Sadly, all I can do is write about my pain.

That's nothing new. You should play an obscure little Japanese RPG called Hoshi wo Miru Hito. The sad thing about that game is that there were no "joke" weapons.

But that doesn't carry the hilarity of felling world-ending monsters with kitchen utensils! The idea of doing that is probably the only thing that would keep me sane during this challenge.
I took a quick look at Hoshi wo Miru Hito, and from what I've read, it's literally the video game equivalent of Russian Roulette. Sometimes you'll barely scrape by, sometimes you won't. Oof.

Pretty much. The game is lauded for being the most horrifically designed game in JRPG history. Think of it as the Action 52 of Japan only having better potential of actually being good had it been handled with even an ounce of competence.
But yeah, there is nothing in that game that has as much of a hilarity factor as slaying beasts with a kitchen utensil.

This made me go back and play your Densetsu no Kusoge game again. Aggh the pain XD
I... really don't see how this is worth the time, or effort, to do. Especially considering the game in question. Of course, my definition of a self-challenge, especially for games that I can emulate, is to cheat, but cheat "fairly" by sacking gold to get EXP, or skill points, or whatever.
Though, to be perfectly fair, this "self-challenge" doesn't necessarily stop me from spawning items that net lots of money, so, maybe I shouldn't even talk.

I want to do it because it's fun. A twisted, masochistic flavor of fun. I'm obviously not going to spend all my time on the challenge. It's just a fun little thing to do whenever I have some time off.
Unfortunately, it's not looking good for me. The only way I can get the ladle to do damage is upgrade it all the way (which requires materials I can't get until mid-late game) and infuse it with property that I can't get until after a couple of bosses have already been beaten. I COULD switch out the challenge to using just bare fists, since that will always do damage, but at half the hilarity.
