Please somebody Remove Arms From 1st Person View!

Post » Thu May 31, 2012 7:57 am

This is one of the worse things in the game for me. I do not use 1st person view because I really cannot stand the awefully dorky look of the player's arms stretched out holding the weapons!

This is meant to follow the FPS game format of having your weapons visible as a sort of reference point, but in this case it looks terrible, especialy with spells, and obscures too much of the view.

I don't need it at all, I don't need to see at all times what weapons I have equipped in this forced and artificial manner... When you switch from 1st to 3rd POV you see that your character isn’t actualy holding their arms out in this awkward position , so it isn’t even "realistic" and doesn’t feel fluid at all....

Sheathing the weapomns isn’t a solution, really, as often it is better to be ready, and it is then that you need a good clear view of what's ahead of you.... In a real world situation nobody would hold their arms out like that!

If there was a mod to remove the arms from view and only have them appear when you actually use the weapons/ spells.... I would love it.

Thanks

Wait, so before people were complaining to see their own feet in first person now someone is complaining about seeing their arms in first person?

This has always been the bread and butter of TES games. I find it hard to believe you do not like it...

I think he means he'd rather the swords be lowered and off to the side when in first person view, not up to the player's face.
