I've noticed how whenever I use a bow, after the arrow is launched, the Bow flips around. It's not a big deal, but it does seem kind of weird. This is the only FF game with bows that does that.

That does look pretty weird. I never noticed that before, either, but, then, I didn't play much of FFV.
Some of the quirks of the graphics are pretty interesting. I don't think it's really a big deal, either, but it's still entertaining and worth pointing out. -------------------- Veni, vidi, dormivi. |

It's especially wierd if you've done a little bit of archery to know some basics of using a bow. When you let go of the arrow, it requires extra, outside, and pointless effort to spin the bow around (plus your probably not going to do it quickly enough to spin it around before the arrow hits an in-range target), and if the string has enough momentum to bend the bow in the opposite direction, the string isn't tight enough to launch the arrow. Plus if the bow is bent both ways enough times, it will snap.
Maybe that's it - the FFV heros were doing it wrong, so they ended up snapping all the bows, which explains why it is the last FF game with Bows and Arrows -------------------- "I had to write four novels before they let me write comic books." -Brad Meltzer |
