Shout out to Steven Universe giving their main character a shield.
Or say that the character mostly reads things like fencing manuals and is a swordsmanship nerd on the same level as the princess bride clifftop duel.
Anything really!
Also it annoys me because swords and bows are THE most difficult weapons to learn from the medieval ages. We have legends about master bowmen and swordsmen because they were notoriously difficult to use.
You can look up videos of reenactors of people using spears vs. swords, and people who have never touched a spear in their life can beat people who have been using swords for reenactments for years.
To use longbows effectively was a life long commitment.
Crossbows didn’t have more power than longbows, they were popular because it took 20 minutes to teach a strong peasant how to fire, and a few weeks to get them firing at the proper cadence to be effective. Being effective with a bow took far longer.
Princess bride clifftop duel is 100% gibberish btw.
First of all how dare you.
The book is a parody of itself.
I dare you to find a part that isn’t near gibberish!
Fuck it, let’s make this mc child OP af in every aspect from weapons to magic and make every single villain underestimate them all the damn time.
The Lies of Locke Lamora
Thus the kingkiller chronicle was born.
Is the third book out yet?
I was so amazed by the slow regard for silent things, I can forgive Rothfuss for not finishing the series.
I have also progressed through the stages of grief and finally found acceptance.
Owl House
I want window guy’s powers. He apparently is immortal or can bounce without suffering injury.
