The Science of Sword Fighting! (For Honor)

For the finale of Game Lab Season 1 I wanted us to go out in style…so I decided to SIEGE MY OWN CASTLE! Or at least, a castle I rented for a day. This was one of the most fun episodes to make in the entire series—I got to learn sword techniques, dress in historic armor and stab the Beard Bros. IN THE FACE! When you think about comparing these games to real life, you think about the weapons and the armor, but you DON’T think about the adrenaline, the fatigue, and the idea of complete strangers running at you with axes. It’s a lot more intense and a lot more dangerous than I ever anticipated!
