These were not for fighting. You cannot see shit from that narrow slit. There are types not made for human facial features, also. These are for protection and from the time humans shared a common enemy,; an electrostatic charge build up of mother nature.

It’s good to see you can get a full harness without any arming points on the gambeson. Figuring out how many arming points to get and where all those laces go has been a real sticking point for me, but it looks like most of the armor you have is self supporting or links up directly with the other plates.

The knight set from elden is so historically accurate but also isn't too plain looking. It has a closed helm without breathing holes, plate armor with a blue gambeson underneath that sports a golden design along the fringes. The armor and helmet also have simple ornate engravings on them. Its my favorite set in elden ring!

The infantry breastplates are still incredible works of art in my opinion. The the fact they are polished metal means they were worth a good bit on their day, unless that polishing was done by some silly Victorians way later on.

I think the biggest problem is that people want straight one size fits all answer to things, it's like there's no room for nuance. Armor can be heavy and energy expending and it's not invincible and it can be hard to see in, but it does the job just like the modern infantry kit. There are both flaws and positives to everything. Also the medieval period lasted about a thousand years and things always change in one way or another, i mean the way people looked, lived and fought in the latter half of the 19th century and the early half of the 18th were probably very different in many ways, now apply that to 1k years.
