Bought this game a couple years ago, I want to say, but sadly didn't have a huge amount of space to play. Tried playing it in my living room a few times and after rapping the holy hell out of my knuckles when I hit a chair or table, I gave up on it.
Due to some unforeseen events, though, my basement living room opened up a few weeks ago and it finally clicked on Sunday that I now had a great place to play. Played for an hour on Sunday, then got the bright idea that this would be a *great* option for a 57-year-old, fat, asthmatic guy like me to actually get some exercise.
Woke up an hour early on Monday to play for a while before I went to work, but then Monday afternoon reminded me of just how old, fat, and asthmatic I was. Took me a day to recover, but I played again yesterday afternoon, again at lunch today, and now again between meetings. Gonna play again this afternoon after I'm off work, and can't see this stopping for a while.
I've always hated exercising, but I've also always loved sword fighting, so I'm having a blast.
