Bow hold with right hand?!?!?
   

I can't believe it, the character holds and uses the bow in the _right hand_ . Who did that animation? Looks pathetic! If developers had looked to any archer for 5 seconds they would have seen that a right handed person holds the bow in LEFT hand and the arrow in the right one.

Dominate Eye
   

My guess is that "we" have minor dyslexia.

I know that I do. There are things that I do off handed (shooting rifles and bows) due to the fact that Ihave a dominant left eye despite being right handed.

It matters to someone who has used a bow in real life. It feels a bit wierd using a bow in the wrong hand.

what about left handed chars?
   

What I would say is that the point might be the simple fact that all characters could theoretically be left handed. If you use a bow in your right hand you will hold the arrow in your left which would then perfectly fit the situation.

Yup. If he was left-handed left-handed dudes would complain. Maybew you can change all animations in the editor with 3dSM?

As someone who used to be involved in Archery, I found it quite disorienting the first couple of times I pulled out my bow. Felt really awkward for the first couple of kills.

But then I let it go because it's just a game and I was having WAY too much fun.
