While I'm not familiar with the practices of Tai Chi and its history, I am familiar with the stories and mysticism of "inner" martial arts and chi due to my cultural background. I've always been fascinated with martial arts and kung fu, and have recently taken up karate and its cultural histories. I also have a degree in kinesiology and will agree that the human body is such a complex and fascinating subject. The word "chi" or "ki" literally means air or in the context of martial arts, breath, and I will associate it as such. In every martial arts that I've seen, breathing is always a subject in the forefront. But as far as listening to tall tale stories and feats that chi can achieve, I always smile and nod but take it with a grain of salt

Hey I understand where you're coming from. I also believe that's one of the areas the sequel can improve upon. With a bigger team and budget, hopefully we'll get that

I remember playing the first one when it was just available for early access and the gameplay was understandably rough. I played a little bit and then forgotten about until last year when there were some buzz about it again. I brushed off the dust and got to experience such an immersive medieval world. 10/10 in my book

Ah it's like reuniting with old friends

That was painful to watch. I usually try to keep an open mind with these clips as we don't have much context to go on but whether or not this was staged, it was really toxic and sad to see

Feng Shui is just an ancient Chinese way of saying "A E S T H E T I C S"

Really cool to see a new IP from Capcom and it being an aesthetically pleasing defense tower game is interesting and takes me back to the Onimusha/Okami/Viewful Joe days

Probably because MMO is not the trending buzz word for execs and shareholders. Plus you got an example of a successful live service game (Helldivers 2). Doubtful that these are the type of people to be in touch with what people actually wants

Sometimes you get tired of sitting in a chair all day. Especially if you don't work from home

Thanks friend! May all us get some well deserved rest
