It was funny that he tried defending Agamemnon looksmaxxing by saying that there are "a few blackened bronze daggers, and they're expensive, so a rich guy would want to show off how alien he is and create distance between him and his men".
...but then nobody is wearing historically accurate armour in the first place, so the "historically plausible" argument is meaningless! They're all in blackened armour, just mudcore style - because he's making a Serious Movie, but historical stories are actually silly, so he has to fix it and give it some goddamn gravitas.
So much weaker than Yoko Taro's "I just like it".
Agamemnons black armor would be cool if he were the only one with that style. It would say a lot about the character if he were running around like some tacticool looksmaxxing operator, while everyone else had rad as fuck colourful equipment. But that wouldn't be cool I guess
Use historically accurate armor.
