Go to:

I tried to avoid giving any more spoilers, so the shots are a bit dull ;)

Thanks :)
I love the way how arrows stay on the walls, but I do not like the fact that the bow is hold with right hand like the sword... ok, a right handed person holds the bow with LEFT hand! that looks very awkward.
Thanks, I like a lot that shots

looks a lot like the way the Amazon holds the bow in Blade of Darkness. is it equally as hard to aim?

There is a "bug" with the aiming system and I already reported it to Arkane:

The arrow leaves the bow at a straigh path but a couple of dozend cms below the arrow tip, e.g. aim at a spot and the arrow will stick about 50cm below that spot in the wall. Very awkward in aiming since you. need always to aim higher (and thus obscuring your target with the bow itself).

But I am using Sword and Shild or the ultra-cool Magie anyway ;)

Does aiming actually work for magic this time <b>Tels</b>? I found the magic scrolls really awkward to use in the demo.
