Then the guy who got beat up doesn't care that you tried to help him, You try to act very kind to a women and she just takes advantage of you. And although the Medival times might look cool it was a crappy time to live in. You had to throw your shit over a wall. A lot of virus and such to kill you off. You could be easily killed by a theif or soldier. If a lord or knight didn't like you they could kill you with ease. And lets face it the only good life you could get is either become a mercenary and risk you life in countless battles. However if you were to survive a lord might make you his body guard. Other than that you can just live a crappy short life.
Well of course there is stuff like that to take into consideration, however the time of
chivalry had more honor and morality than the present day has. Especially if you were a
knight or a lord. Might suck if you are a peasant though. Also just because your life would
be short doesn't mean it would be crappy. If you are doing something you enjoy and it
somehow benefits others. Then I think it could be fulfilling.
