      Well said. It was about damned time he got to go feral, though. And as it turns out, when you have a ton of emotional intelligence like Murph, acting like an immature dudebro is fucking _hysterical._ I'm glad he got to have such a good time this season.

    As a swordfighter I can tell you, those pictures from the manuals are REAL hard to figure out sometimes. And the Poetic Metaphorical Verses to describe them, which are in older versions of languages I don't fully speak, don't help either. Gerard is FULLY in the right presuming that the guy in the picture was actually sniffing, because who fucking knows

      I feel like Brennan tried really hard to make it a genuine "horror" season but the Intrepid Heroes just weren't having it... in particular, the "Queen of Chaos", Emily Axford. By the last episode, it was just a big cartoon party.

      @@OdeOneEleven Well almost everyone did silly things (I wonder if they were subconsciously bringing in comedy to break the tension); and Brennan mostly just played along and "yes and"-ed all the silliness, or almost all of it. I think if he really wanted to, he could have reigned it in a little bit in the first few episodes by not engaging with all the jokes. But they were probably all just having too much fun and Dropout is a comedy platform after all.

    • @Hypersaiyanike
      @Hypersaiyanike ปีที่แล้ว +9

      ​@@math9172I share this stance with you, and have seen a decent interpretation as to why that is.
      Horror is rooted in the feeling of being helpless in a situation and a fear of the unknown. The Nightmare King achieved this by being a constant threat that they couldn't swing a sword at or run away from, forcing them to meticulously set up sleeping arrangements or face pretty grave consequences. It isn't until the last few sessions that an explanation for what's truly going on even starts to happen, but to solve any of it they have to go into the forest where the Nightmare King makes the rules.
      In Neverafter, every encounter is prefaced by the context of the setting. Social interactions start mental "Guess who" games until the five seconds it takes for someone to pick up the right hints an KNOW who they're dealing with. Worse yet, they have the biggest piece of the solution in their possession from the very beginning, and are explicitly told so in session 1. Brennan did a lot of leg work to twist these fable visually, but that made it more gore than horror.

    There's so much comedic depth in the idea of taking something beautiful and making your own shitty knockoff with blackjack and hookers. It really characterizes Gerard as a wannabe warrior-scholar type, and it shows how little he understands about what kind of maturity that would require from him. Which makes it even more poignant when he finally grows up in the end.

      Funnily enough, (having read only the early books), I'd much rather have a description of the actual moves instead of a list of esoteric sounding names. Maybe that's because I have a HEMA background where there's an "Oberhau" (Overstrike) instead more fantastical forms (although there is a guard called Unicorn, The Iron Gate, etc in Fiore's books. So it's not all HEMA that's to the point, just the German sources)

    I had a similar character once - Mouse Crumb, a Gnome Monk. He would declare his forms:
    "Squirrel climbs the tree"
    "Kitten bites your finger"
    "Bumblebee tickles your neck"
    DM made a foil for him, an NPC that announced their forms. My favorite was when DM hit me with: "He counters with 'Cat got your tongue'!"
    Another player passed me a suggestion...
    "Silent Cricket In Your Ear!"
    Didn't work. But it was glorious!

    Serpent Creeps through the Grass

      @@nehemiahsomers4141 its got the creepy horror aesthetic around it with haunting images and then the cast comes in and has fun bits but if you think about a man sized frog for too long its kinda scary. especially if you’re a frog owner and have experienced them putting anything that can fit in their mouth in said mouth and eating it. Gerard could have easily been a killer if he wasn’t so Gerard.

    Flashbacks to my DM putting me on the spot with "and describe your attack for us" because he knows I'm a swordfighter. Problem is we don't have fun Robert Jordan names for it irl. Instead real fencing manuals are just like "and if they try to stab your low opening, stab them first but better, like so."

    i love that he got this idea from wheel of time because i always found the sword forms cool but the way he's doing it is so silly

  • @Time628
    @Time628 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I know Murph was inspired by Wheel of Time, but when I first heard him naming sword forms, my first thought was Xoulin Showdown. One of the main characters, Omi, shouts out his moves all the time. One that sticks out in my mind is "Sparrow catches hot dog"

    Honestly, its weird and hilarious that Murph both seems to really like playing horrible fathers/husbands and is really good at, while at the same time being a really good husband to Emily
