I made this thread because I think the new archer animations for EB are incorrect and I wanted to let the team know. I posted those videos because I thought the EB team would want to see some sources.
But as far as I cab recognize.... the archery techniques that used on that video was definitely asian, not only japan, but that was closer to asian styled archery arts. that way they draw bows was definitely used for drawing bamboo / composite bows, with direct pull, wait, and shot. AFAIK, self bows used in europe (and mediterranians) will quickly break if you try to use direct pulls. so withdrawing closer to the body first, and quickly relase the arrow. Waiting and aiming for too long will compromise with the strength on your self bow.
