    Johnny is super cool (and hot) so a great pick overall. His level of tech execution made him unplayable for me in previous games which in hindsight is pretty funny now that I am complaining about project L and GBFVSR.

    Still hoping for Jam one of these days but they might consider her to similar to Gio.

    I certainly agree that archery is a martial art. In term of my own answers to the questions. I practice Kyudo, and have since 2019 with a very large break for CoVID and my second child (maybe at a year and a half now total?).

    In terms of benefit, I think I had most of the groundwork of fitness already laid due to other passions (running, weightlifting, traditional sports) but the benefit has been mostly mental and spiritual for me. Kyudo isn't a practice you can just power through, being bigger or stronger isn't an advantage. So learning to embrace the devil is in the details or pushing for slight incremental improvements...and trying to figure out how to do so is the draw. If I was younger, I would have likely been too frustrated to stick with it.

    I practice in a small dojo - about 5 to 6 regulars with a sempai as it is very niche community out of Japan.

    I would recommend it if you already believe that martial arts is a long walk/journey. We get beginners who often get frustrated that we start with form and posture for several hours before touching a bow. But for me, it is something I plan to do until I can't draw a bow any longer. So I am in no rush.

    Thanks for the link. It is nice to know that new communities will have the support of some fantastic devs. RIF was my preferred way pf browsing and it feels strange (ly good) tp start breaking the habits of opening it up all the time during downtime.
