    Not my best story, a bit rushed, but it came to me in a few days after listening to a few of your videos and I just went with it. I basically took elements from a book I am writing and I just put it on a Humanity Fuck Yeah story. Hope you guys liked it and I am honored you wanted to make a video with it! Thank you very much!

      The hint is "Deathworld", with which Earth is classified. A planet larger than Earth will likely have too much gravity to ever allow for space flight. Smaller planets are "garden worlds", although this is not well understood yet, but *this* is SciFi.
      As we still only know our own solar system: Mars is already too small to hold its own atmosphere. But the gravity is low enough for easy space access. Titan is even smaller, but has a thicker atmosphere than Earth! Well, temperature also plays into these things, but our outer atmospheric layers are also cold. As I already mentioned ;•) these things are not yet completely understood. And when we finally think we know all this, we will see exoplanets laugh at our wisdom.

      I'm not sure it's entirely unbelievable for another species to just not do that. While the story listed creativity and determination as mankind's greatest strengths we do apparently have another, stamina. To my understanding there isn't many animals on earth that can match us in sheer continual output of energy in physical exertion. There are faster or stronger or more durable true, but I've heard and read stories of such frightening endurance from people that are apparently supported by people who saw it it took part. Can you imagine a cheetah with its extreme burts of speed but low endurance saying "yeah ok let's hit each other with sharp metal weapons while wearing armour"? It may happen, but until we meet another highly intelligent species we can't know for sure.

    • @LM-xw7ii

      Well … technically, the medieval era arose out of a technological decline, right? The ancient world saw the Roman Empire fall and then saw the medieval era emerge out of the Dark Ages.
      But there’s an even more fundamental point. The Greeks and Romans knew about steam power, but failed to see it as anything more than a toy. China had gunpowder for a long time, but essentially thought only to use it for fireworks. If we hadn’t thought like that, we could have moved straight from ancient times into industrial ones, or at least into some kind of more industrialized renaissance.

    • @bertellijustin6376
      @bertellijustin6376 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

      Uh what?! The title Knight existed in the Roman times, it’s just a title of nobility/professional soldier sworn to a Lord or in the Roman case to the Republic or Empire. The Roman Empire and Republics were generally based on land ownership much like feudal Europe would be later on. He who owned the land held the power. As to China and gunpowder…….ffs they had gunpowder weapons in the Song Dynasty!! Hundreds of years before we were using them in Europe. They even had basically Proto-cannon and hand grenades. Throw in their fire arrows and you have the weapons used to drive back Kublai Khan later down the road.

    • @bertellijustin6376
      @bertellijustin6376 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

      Roman knights were generally called Equites. Remeber a knight is just a noble that rides to battle. And with the expense and rarity of war quality horses in those times, cavalry generally came from the nobility of whatever power system was in control of any given region of the era.

      Definitely heavily inspired by them. Though I don't play helldivers, bits I've seen don't show melee weapons and a heavy use of air support over psionics. So there is some differences. Truthfully I do think a unit in perfect cohesion with even sufficient technology and equipment would be a horror to face. Sort of makes me want the perspective of the line infantry. Can you imagine that sort of synchronisation and communication across an entire division or army group?

    The knight, as I understand him.
    The knight is a concept originating from eras in which chaos reigned, during this time, protection was extremely valuable, so those best equip to fight became extremely wealthy and powerful. This tradition continued into ages of more peace, where the nobility consists of the descendants of those mercenaries, and so to keep their status as nobles, they were expected to lead the charge in any war. Their wealth afforded them opportunity to train extensively rather than working to grow food, as well as affording the extremely expensive armor and warhorse that made them so formidable. In Christian contexts, they were expected to dedicate themselves at a church prior to accepting knighthood, and often served at the behest of the church in place of or in addition to the king.
    Those without land or a noble house were said to wander and look for opportunities to fulfill their oaths to the protect their country, thus the legend of the knight errant, the wanderer.
    During a time when oaths were extremely important, the knight took an oath to God and country, thus arose the popular conception of the knight, a warrior with an oath.

    To be fair, I talked to one of my teenage employees the other day and made a joke about a Samurai code of honor. She looked at me and asked what a samurai was. I told her it was a Japanese warrior from a few hundred years ago. She told me she didn't watch anime. I told her it was a real life thing. She said that she doesn't know Japanese history.
    I shrugged.
    "Fair enough. But a Samurai is basically an Asian knight."
    She looked at me.

    That's an awesome title. I love to write and I've unfortunately been in a writer's block for several years now, sad to say. But my sci-fi book are based off of the medieval dark ages of knights and kings and such, but with a 2610AD vibe... although last when I checked that book, I was in the 33rd century. Anyway, my main character's army are called Black Knights.
    Listening to stories like this and listening to music that drives my soul to write, gives me a sense of "get out of the writer's block and start writing". My main character is unfortunately stuck in space... or more like floating in space. Anyway, awesome story. Even if it was a bit rushed, stories have a way to get the motivation and inspiration going, something I lack at the moment. And just listening to it now, I want to write!
    There may not be no translation for the human word "knight", but my Black Knights are protectors and annihilators. Stay Frosty!
