So Iβm reading The Green Knight for my Medieval English lit class and I went back and watched your Arthuriana videos for fun nostalgia, but I noticed when you were covering the Green Knight you called Arthur tired. Was there a specific reason why you did that or is that one of those things that, if you decided to redo that video, you would change? I just found it interesting bc the poem clearly states Arthur as boyish and his reason for initially accepting the challenge was pride.
The character of King Arthur that lives in my head has a little more "has been through the Arthuriana timeloop too many times" malaise than any proper characterization of King Arthur in the original stories. The story drifts and changes over time but Camelot always falls, because Arthur is a good king - some would say the perfect king - but that still isn't good enough.
One of my favourite things about a certain stripe of indie horror game is the completely random shit you have to deal with. Like, AAA horror games will take great care to ensure that there's a single unified explanation β or, at least, a single unified first cause β for all the horrible things that confront you; conversely, an indie horror title will centre around a mad geneticist creating monsters in tubes or something, then halfway through the game you inexplicably have to fight, like, a ghost that eats human hair. The ghost has nothing to do with the scientist. There are no obviously supernatural elements in any other part of the game. After it's gone it will never be mentioned again. It's just there, and you've gotta deal with it.
