I have several swords. Some are light and nimble, at least for an adult, like my Messers are all around 800g, 90cm-ish in length, with point of balance at around 11-13cm. I think a child should have no problem wielding them if they do it with care. Then there is a 170cm Zweihänder, weighted about 3kg, PoB at 11cm. I have no doubt a child would be able to lift it, but to use it, it would be very hard. If she can use that adult-size-looking-sword in the picture then she definitely earned it. ;)

My current character was from three years ago, I usually play one character for several years on and off, but they do have sort of different rules and styles.

The current playthrough:

• Don’t be a stealth archer. Only use bows when necessary.

• Avoid enchanted equipments. The only enchanted items I’m allowing myself to use are occasional one amulet and one ring.

• Treat my horse as my friend, bring her always. Sadly two of them died in accidents…

• Tender my garden more. I pretend I have a garden back at home.

And the usual personal rules as every other Bethesda games: Play as survival as possible, eat, drink, sleep, no fast travel, but don’t turn on Survival Mode.

One of my niche hobbies, like HEMA and HEMAScholar.

A community for Ikea stuffs would be nice too?

Their live has always been excellent, I wish I could be there.

I still like Skallagrim. He still gave helpful reviews about blacksmiths and historical weapons that I’m interested in. And IMO, his channel was always more entertainment than scholarship. But HEMA is a martial art that develops slowly, way slower than YouTube algorithm’s demand. There are not many new stuffs to talk about. If there has to be fillers to get his channel going, I’m okay with that.

Edit: Back to the topic. There are not many channels that I care about degraded to the point that I can’t bare. What makes me a little sad is that from time to time, channels stop publishing videos. Especially after Covid, people found better things to do, so they hibernated their YouTube channels.

Rightfully the first post. Brought back some memories.

Yeah, I like world building since as young as I can remember, and continued it till this day. There are several worlds, but all in the same universe. Putting characters in there and see them evolve is fun. Continuing the narratives also helps me sleep, it’s like a sort of meditation.

I was thinking about Coherence, too. Though not technically scary, but in a nature-is-off eerie way. Like, stranger in a strange world.

Wait, that’s the behaviour of my cat… Whatever she thinks, I feel sorry… for not been there to be her bed.

Apart from Mass Effect, Pillars of Eternity, and Deus Ex as others have already mentioned, I’d like to also add:

Grim Dawn.

The conflicts in its Universe feels reasonable, all the factions have their history and reasons of existence, there are beneficial and selfish, but no clear black and white, and everything interacts. The Lore is very good for an ARPG that focuses on combat, loots and built.
