>I could imagine that someone would be uncomfortable wear plate armor for the first time.
It's uncomfortable period. No amount of training changes that.
As for usability, it was designed to be worn. They tried to make it as comfortable and wearable as passable. There was no such thing as needing "heavy armor training" in order to wear it. Just need to be in good physical shape.

Non-existent. Because no European nation ever handed out "leather armor" to it's soldiers. Cloth gambesons on the other hand were standard issue.
You can shove your African leather shields up your ass if that's what you are referring to.

All I see is 1 broken website with a guide on how to make it, and a bunch of garbage news sites taking bits of it. And then this video, of a reproduction cuir bouilli being shredded by arrows.
Leather:

Cloth:

If you have any sources i'm interested but cuir bouilli sounds like it would have been used as fashion and not actual combat armor. Thank you though, I never actually heard of this before.
>>345364521
It's literally not. You just think it is because you saw this image >>345364779 and got confused.

From a bunch of fags that can't even play sports and don't participate in martial arts.

What modern sports have to do with plate armor and halberds are you retarded?
>>345370697

>>345370817
>>345370935
Trying to take the opinions of someone talking about medieval martial arts seriously is like trying to take the discussion of playing a classical instrument seriously from someone who watched a handful of YouTube videos on the subject, never picked up an instrument, and who shitposts on a chink image board about it with a straight face.
>>345370954
Yea, but it's still the best on the market.
>>345371338
That still makes no fucking sense so you're implying the historical fact that polearms were prevalent can be just ignored because no one in modern times fought in medieval battles are you retarded or just American?

But we have guys doing HEMA and their experience seems to confirm what we know about medieval warfare from historical accounts meanwhile you seem to be some sort of fuckwit who believes in 30kg two handed swords and leather armor and just ignores facts because they destroy your idiotic view of ebin RPG like middle ages.

Everything it's unrealistic as fuck NO ONE in the middle ages did that they were too dumb for it they just swung their swords randomly and hoped for the best.

Yea it has better animation, but your comparing a 32 player medieval FPS to a medieval RTS that has hundreds of guys on the field.
Apples and Oranges.
>>345372502
well feinting is a real thing
and the game isn't supposed to be entirely realistic
not to mention a completely realistic combat simulator would be boring as fuck, especially when hardly anybody died in most medieval battles
>>345372310
animations look disgusting

You know exactly what I mean when I say dual wielding.
>>345372830
>animations look disgusting
i have no idea what this means
Really though, why the fuck do 90% of all games have such awful hideous retarded armor designs? Literally all the Souls series did was take real life armor and tweak it a little and they made some of the coolest vidya armor of all time.
Why do so many devs fuck up so magnificently? Especially Bethesda, I think the most shockingly bad part of Skyrim is how hideous all of the armor looks.
>>345372639

same reason all the "vikings" are always shown wearing animal furs. Or why people think its very hard to move in plate armor. People think that's what they actually looked like. So that's what they make.

I fucking love sigmeyer's armor so much because it's a silly, unique design but it would actually be excellent protection.
>>345373107
It's the "Souls is realistic" meme again.
Pic related.
>>345374101
not really, the fat fold things would force a point inward to where the armor is closer to the body
not to mention how much heavier it would be compared to conventional full plate due to the spacing
helmet's bad too
cosmetically it's good though, it's a lot better than the shit you see in warcraft or other modern fantasy
I've never done HEMA or proper deep historical research, but as someone who has experience with asian sword/pole/staff fighting and watches just about every single hema related channel on youtube, these threads always make me cringe.
>>345374169
I literally never said it was all "realistic" just that for the most famous sets all they do is modify real life armor and it looks good.
You know exactly what I fucking meant but you continued with this worthless post. My point was just that real life armor is fucking awesome but devs always make up their own ugly shit.
