Over time my opinion on "muh reelism" has changed a little. How do you feel about the zombie apocalypse survival sim that is Project Zomboid in its current state?

Remembering my "woodsman vs. swordsman" video from 2015, I wanted to give a different take on it and include some practical demonstrations.

A little personal update for the folks who have been asking about the health situation.

It's easy to underestimate foam swords, but the ones from FakeSteel are surprisingly useful for historical martial arts training.

If you're looking for steel practice swords to do HEMA with, here are a few recommendations.

Debunking myths and misconceptions is great, but I wonder if people's ideas about historical armor have swung a little too far in the opposite direction...?

Game of Thrones is generally pretty good with finding a balance between cool fantasy stuff and the right kind of realism, but this goes a step further.

HEMA fencing with semi-sharp blades and (almost) no protective gear is a serious case of "don't try this at home"... although the skill level is impressive.

The mechanics in Hellish Quart are really impressive, and the devs keep working on them. Let's see where it's at now.

Seeing all the kerfuffle about the in-mask shot in Spider-Man: Brand New Day made me think that this realism stuff might have gone too far... people don't even get artistic intent anymore.

If you don't already know, what would you guess is the most common and worst mistake beginners make in historical martial arts, fighting with swords?

That's a nasty kaboom right there... all the way back in the 15th century.

I love museums, and I'm glad that I managed to explore this one for a bit.

The gods gave you two hands, and you use each of them for a different weapon. I can respect that.

What if they had boomsticks much earlier?

The silly things we do when we're young, eh?

I have a very different response to these TMNT fight scenes than I did to the MotU movie trailer.

On the journey of trying to figure out what's wrong, and what to do about it.

Did you know that a live-action Masters of the Universe movie is supposed to come out this summer? I didn't, and I don't think I was ready for this trailer...

I could nerd out about this interesting material for hours. :)

Yes, it doesn't apply to life-saving medicine for example.
Does this bother you as much too?

Sometimes there is no point beyond "look at how cool this is!".

It's interesting to see what happens when you hand an unarmed martial artist a sword.

Talk about peak crossbow design... These are epic!

Kind of a follow-up to the previous video... a little more self-reflection before we get back into fun stuff in the new year.

Some new year's reflections... no fancy editing here, just sincere ramblings.
