HOW THE HELL DOES THAT ARCHER FIRE WITH HIS BOW ARM BENT?!?!

are they child's bows, that they're so easy to pull? egads...

and don't say that he's letting his arm bend after loosing, because there's no way he could bend it so much with the arrow so short a distance out of his bow. :P

and HOW CAN HE SHOOT STANDING FACING THE DIRECTION HE'S SHOOTING?!?!

you face at right angles to the target, if you value your back at all (unless you're shooting a child's bow).

again, he hasn't had time to change his posture, and from the inclination of the arrow, he's not shooting a child's bow.

the archers seem to have deteriorated in their posture from tfl to m2 to m3, that's all i can say. tfl's archers drew to their chins, they stood properly, and their bows were even allowed to drop forward after releasing. m2's archers were almost ok, except that they drew to some point on their chests - not good practice for aiming or consistency. their bows also dropped after releasing. myth 3's archers, based on this shot, look completely wrong: bent bow arm; standing facing the wrong way; drawing arm looking like he "twanged" the string to release; arrows far too long for the bow; the bow apparently not drawn fully; and the bow itself far too bent for the material it seems to be made from.

gah! how upsetting...

i guess i'll have to fix it when someone comes up with a model/animation importer/exporter for myth 3 for some application i might have. :)
