The weak (you) should fear the strong (John Primitive)

larper

>>2874311
what exactly do you think camping is?
>>
>>2874309
He's been at it for so long, but hasnt really gotten anywhere. He built like 6 different mud huts. Half of them fell down. He's made some bellows and roof tiles I guess. But he keeps stalling and going backwards, instead of advancing and making Primitive metal tools/systems to eventually evolve to premodern systems and tools.

I used to watch every video of hisbthat came out like 10 years ago. Not anymore. He's stagnated. don't know why he keeps going back to making roof tiles, other clay things and kilns and huts and shit. It's like he doesn't want to leave his comfort zone anymore.
>>
>>2874311
larping building stuff??
he's not out there camping, he's out there doing primitive technology, to understand it.

what part of that is larp?

he's dont good so far, his content is very educational, especially to the primitive schizo oriented, i've learned a lot.
>>
I wanna see his penis.
>>

this

>>2874327
Why would he want to make steam engines? If you want to see some faggot doing shit in that vein, watch one of those Filipino channels.
>>
>>2874327
I feel similarly, though there's a lot of new things he could build that aren't mud brick huts with clay tiles even limited to stone tools. Should start his woodworking arc.
>>
>>2874327
hes literally been working on making a better metal foundry, and needs tiles & brick to make a house that isn't going to fall apart
until he has enough metal, he can't make a blade, and until he has enough tiles & bricks, he can't make a house
theres also no fucking point in making a steam engine, it would be infinitesimally worthless to a waterwheel

i think once he finally has good sized bricked house, only then can he expand to other things, like woodworking (like >>2874372 said)
its just not worth it for as long as his huts may collapse or burn; i'm sure he has plenty on the side right now though
>>
>>2874311
all out hobbies are larping by your logic
>>
>>2874351
No thanks.
>>2874377
See that's the problem. He's not going to find enough wild metals on his own land. My original point is he keeps making stuff we've already seen many times before and that makes for boring content. That's been the main focus of his videos for the past like 3 or more years. He's eventually going to have to go out and find raw materials elsewhere. But he's not. He's sitting in his nest, and just toiling away without much advancement.
He doesn't need to do anything to crazy, hell he could even make a video of him going to a different area and either gathering wild material, or just explain that he had to bring outside help in.

He can't stay isolated like his is and make videos the way he is without it going stale.
>>
>>2874372
A wood work arc would be excellent. He could make so much with that. He could make a proper cabin, tools, furniture, etc.
>>
>>2874327
>>2874390
my thoughts exactly. the reason me and a lot of his audience watched was because we were like "what's he gonna build next? how will he advance this time?" it was so cool for the first couple of years.
but nownits like we're tired of seeing the same 6 videos on repeat about him making huts and tiles. hope he branches out soon and makes it out of the stone age.
>>
>>2874390
he'll get enough, its just the fact hes not some fake survivalist that makes a concrete swimming pool (remember? that was weird) or some retarded shit
he does it for his own enjoyment, but you're expecting him to do it for entertainment. you can't do that & not get disappointed
>>
He should make more primitive gardening videos.
>>
it took humans like 3 million years to go from the stone age to the copper/bronze age
and youre complaining a guy hasnt made much progress in ten
>>
>>2874402
If he was doing it for just himself and not enjoyment of his audience he wouldn't have made a youtube channel.
Also I don't think his land has enough naturally occuring metal. He would need to dig for it and find a vein. The piddly shit he's gotten won't cut it.
>>
>>2874406
see you missed the part where he's in the modern fucking age and just RECREATING history. he's not actually living through the stoneage, you gomer. he has the power to look things up and get access to things ancients didn't have.
>>
>>2874408
i'd like to see you do better
>>
>>2874399
Yep, pretty much nailed it.
>>2874402
We dont want that fake chinese pool crap. But he does need to branch out. Being a video creator is a two way street. You cant always appease fans and you cant always do something 100% for yourself or youll lose your audience.
>>
>>2874409
>the old "wElL wHy DoNt YoU dO [x] bEtTeR" arguement.
cmon dude dont act like a tard.
>>
>>2874411
i accept your concession
>>
Just watch Primitive Skills old videos if you want to see primitive forging.
>>
>>2874412
non argument, super tard. so if your doctor sucks ass youd become one to do better? fuckin' idiot.
>>
>>2874404
That's just normal gardening without metal or plastic.
>>
>>2874327
>>2874377
I agree the fan blower and the water wheel was a disappointment I wish he would try thicker oven walls longer preheat and more coal, and hopefully get a decent blade out of it not just cast iron.
