>kills you before you even get near me
you said something mr protag-wannabe?

any bow games that are more than just a standard shooter?
Best I can think of is Monster Hunter, where there's different charge levels and different shot types have different critical distances where they do the most damage and it drops off massively when not in that range

>>712404603
That's cool and all, but such an exercise has little basis in practicality. Your targets.arent just going to stand there and let you charge them like that. Nor are they going to stand there and let you line up those shots.

>>712404645
If you're a roided up gigachad, you are better off in the front lines with a sword and shield where you're most useful instead of sitting in the back breaking bow strings because of your strength.
Being gay comes naturally at that point when you're only useful in the backlines.

>>712404831

Dungeons of Eternity

120 pounds was like the standard (atleast for english longbow shooters)

The constant Medieval LARP dick measuring contest on /v/ and in this thread does make me wonder why bows haven’t gathered the mythology that swords have. Almost no media is about a magic bow, it’s always a sword.

bow is a dex weapon and dex weapons are for gay

>>712403246

just like melee weapons, you require both str and dex.

>>712405245
You're thinking of a crossbow.

Bows are a str weapon, dex is for daggers and slings.

>>712405743
Bows are impersonal. You hold the sword in your hand and drive it through them yourself.

>>712405743
fuck em both I want a game about King Dagda's magic harp.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDzvphtF9YI

>>712405743
Swords are just an easier weapon to understand. You pick it up and swing it. Everyone has done something like that in life.
With a bow, you have to get used to how it draws and figure out how to shoot it effectively.
Plus, it's way more satisfying to see something get hit up close than seeing something get hit from far away unless it's an explosion.

>Remember being obsessed with archery as a kid
>Just not as into it now as an adult
It makes me sad, because video games do some cool stuff with bows now but they just feel off.
It also doesn't help some games take a solid bow and ruin it a la monster hunter

>>712405862
Bows should have a Str Requirement and Dex Scaling
You need to be X strong to even use the bow to begin with, and being able to shoot a 200 lb bow doesn't make arrows from a 60 lb bow hit harder, it's just a matter of hitting people in better places

check mate bow cucks

>>712407328
Strength might contribute to draw speed I think. Or perhaps lower the stamina cost overall, like how when you're strong rowing a lighter weight than your work set is easy as shit and doesn't wear you out.

>>712407052
I’ve heard medieval bows had absurd draw weights, but modern ones cap out around 70 pounds and noodle arms can draw that, but they’ll be shaking after three shots

>>712406640
Magic arrow is preferred over magic bow by storytellers because it allows for more tension. The hero both gets a cool super-arrow but can still be reasonably challenged by regular opponents because he's saving the magic arrow for the dragon or evil wizard etc. Having him on the ropes and overcome stuff with his skills and wits, plus getting the payoff of obliterating the villain is just plain satisfying. It's the medieval equivalent of an action hero having one last bullet that he has to save for his archnemesis.

>>712407328
No str is the most important thing for shooting high poundage bows anon, the amount of muscle you need to fire off arrow after after arrow is immense, and it's str that decides how much control you have as you draw the bow and aim it.

>>712407893
I know that English longbowmen actually had fucked up spines and shoulders that were bent into shape to properly use the high power longbows of that era. I'm not downplaying your strength, these fucks are heavy. But the power of the arrow is limited by the power of the bow and that is not something a stronger archer can overcome. There's other benefits of strength obviously, nocking more arrows and stamina, but I'm saying bows need strength to be used and failing to bend the bow to its fullest intended extent means it is underperforming its potential.
Compare it to crossbows. They have all the strength, maybe even more, but it's made easier with tools and the tension mechanically stored. Once you bring the string back to its intended position of full power, all you can do is good shot placement, the same as a bow.

start on a poundage you can pull back semi comfortably like 40lb or something, build up muscle memory and actual muscle over time. be patience and practice, i shot instinct without sights and that is just something i can't really explain well over the internet it's just something you must learn by doing.

>>712408840
Crossbows use tools to make it so they're not rowing 120 pounds. Some have crows feet for deadlifting the string. I like a good windlass pulley. But the final mechanic is the same, YOU aren't sending the projectile down range, the BOW is, and YOU are just applying strength to the bow in order to make it do that. If you can't do that, you're using it wrong.

>>712407225

>>712410257
I was going to say the same thing but if you think about it robin hood is really famous for the "steal from the rich, give to the poor" thing, more than being an archer he's famous for standing up to the injustices of the time.

>>712409739
There are far more mythological archers in culture that value it as a high class weapon like in India, China, and Ancient Greece, basically when most of those kings still fight using chariots. As far as I know Roman never use chariots in battle (they still value it as a sport) while Germans and Celts use chariots as just a transport according to Caesar.

>>712410257
Robin Hood didn't really use his bow in combat in the original ballads, It was basically just for showing off in competitions, He used a sword for everything else

>>712408863
Looks like he's dancing with women, what is problem?

>>712410391
>according to Caesar
Caesar wrote about the Britons using chariots in battle, too. Throwing javelins from the carriage as well as quickly dismounting to fight on foot, then mount back up and scurry away if the melee turned sour.

Incidentally I think this would make a fucking cool video game. Getting dropped off into a melee from the back of a chariot, overwhelm specific points in the enemy line with superior local force, mount back off and go cause trouble at some other weak point in a battle line. Shit would be so fucking kino but one idea doesn't make an entire video game.

>>712403094 (OP)
now answer this question. if you had really long arms and could pull the bow fully in both cases, would the angle you hold the bow when crouching increase your damage or decrease it?

>>712403246
Based Sherlock

>>712410606
I count that as transport but I guess that's just their battle tactics unlike eastern charioteer who constantly move around and basically act as a mobile platform for archer.

We started a school archery club for the same reason, we had hundreds of them but you might only use them once or twice in four years of high school (years 8 and 9 were a given, but it would depend on your PE teacher how often you used them, but 10/11/12 would depend on which subjects you picked). School shut the club down after six months though because we were out on the oval practicing ranked volley fire every morning, the sight of which apparently started to make some teachers, parents and authorities nervous kek

>>712410846

Yeah you're probably right. Sort of like dragoons being more of a "mounted infantry" unit than cavalry, since according to doctrine they fought dismounted and just used horses for mobility.

What are you talking about? After swords bows are probably the weapon that has the most mythology surrounding it. It's either them or spears.

>>712410391
Chinese and Indian bows are way too broken. I recall reading some of those have nuclear bomb tier feats.

>>712405743
Dhanusha appears in Final Fantasy, but that's about it.
Fire Emblem actually made up a fake bow, Ichaival, and some people thought it was real. It even appeared in Smite, and also in Symphogear
Goes to show how little people actually know about famous bows

>>712410696
If you had long arms you'd use a bow with the adequate size that would bring the same issues to the table, the issue isn't the angle they are using but how much string they can pull in those positions

>>712411474
>smite
those dipshits made Medusa into an archer when there's no such mythological evidence suggesting it.

>>712411469
Well anything touched by indian hands now carries poison damage so that would've done a lot of the leg work.

>>712411556
which is a dumb and easy to answer question. the one with more pull does more damage. that doesnt make you an expert on bows. now answer which angle does more damage if the bow is pulled the same amount. now thats a real experiment.

Swords are the only weapon shape that is purely for killing humans, so it encapsulates the concept of a martial weapon the most purely.
You least of all get such a bonus with e.g. an axe also used for chopping firewood.

>>712411989
Yeah, a strategy would be neat but I was thinking more action game like mount and blade but with AI to use the chariots correctly.

Of course, as always it's easier said than done. I'm sure there are many unanswered questions with exactly how chariots would perform in those scenarios and broad generalisations of their use written by historians/contemporaries probably gloss over a lot of the critical details.

There is literally nothing wrong with crossdressing.

It would still be really uncomfortable though

it's a pipeline for trannyism

just look at that russian dude who loved to crossdress for his omegle pranks and even had his girlfriend support him, then he finally trooned out

>>712403246
>>712407316
impressive

i had seen that guys videos earlier and he definitely gave off a weird vibe. theres something off about the way he expresses himself and his choice of wear. but even still he doesnt come off as gay as much as just weird

this guy is harder to figure out. hes severely obsessed with all things swords but he doesnt seem autistic, which makes me think hes unhappy or depressed and fills his time with sword bullshit to distract himself from it

Axe is the right choice.

You wouldn't use the same kind of axe for those things. I guess you could if you absolutely had to but they'd be pretty bad at each other's jobs.

>"i have no idea i am talk and act retarded"
and more like "
>heh i talk and act retarded what are u gonna do about it"
the latter seems like all the rage on youtube now. and usually it turns out those people are mentally ill because you need something going in your noggin to go out of your way to be that weird

>>712416709

>>712409314
Why are straggots so gay?

>>712405245
And against a dude with modest armor (most combatants) you need to shoot good to do more than annoy him.

To be fair I wouldn't trust nigger kids with spears, their instincts will take over and they'll go all shaka zulu. I mean shit, look at how the adult ones behave.

It's a religious thing. Since being gay is sinful it must be borne from sin no one can be born gay. So you must have been molested to turn out gay.

Being that close to your target also makes it retarded to use a bow. Like bro just pull out a knife and stab them.

Becoming a professional archer took years of training and these guys were the buffest mf around because they needed to be able to pull and hold up to 200 pounds with one arm.

Now crossbowmen and handcannoniers were considered "weak". But that was also because they were usually militiamen. That was until italian mercenaries, which focused on crossbows, started being real effective. Because they used tactics of one heavily armed heavy infantry in front being covered by a team of crossbowmen. (So actual aggro pulling tank/DPS tactic IRL)

Concussions are still a thing. Also proper full plate costs like a moderately sized estate and trained warhorses to lug your fully plated ass around weren't cheap too..

First post truly was best post.

>>712419250
That's not from religioun anon. It's reality. Gays reproduce by molestation. Every gay man is also a pedophile and would go for young boys. In religion everyone is born sinful, it doesn't come from getting diddled.

>>712403246
takes one to know another, right

>>712432338
No it really doesn't. You can tell if someone was molested by if they are gay or not. You don't have to be gay to notice.

>>712405459
man I just googled this guy and he has micro dick lmao chad my ass

Bows are present in most of the mythology across all religions and cultures, but modern fantasy media is pop culture based on what the victorian english liked jerking off in the 1800s, which is King Arthur in which despite being welsh has no mention of a bow ever being used.
Every other hellenic hero or god had a bow, every other norse god uses a bow, hayk for armenia, arash for iran, shiva in india, etc
