All I’ve ever wanted, and I’ve never seen it in any game I’ve played yet, is just the simple option to make my character hold things as a lefty. I can understand main and offhand concepts, but for two handed weapons, it would just fill my heart with so much joy to have a cosmetic mirroring effect for animations and have my character hold a bow/hammer on the opposite side. It doesn’t seem like it’d be hard to implement, and I know its nothing more than cosmetic, but I can’t be the only one out there

that would be nice. not a big thing, but it would be cool.
You’d feel like Link. °w°
you basically just needed to mirror the character+ its animations, so designwise the work should be that manageable…don’t know how it is with implementing and space for data though.

That would be totally awesome! Or at least have an entire race switch main an offhand if nothing else. I think making Asuras main lefty would be cool ^_^

There was a dev response about why they can’t implement this. If I find it, I’ll post it. It’s quite a large undertaking apparently.

I can’t believe I’ve never thought of something like that in game, and I’m left handed as well. I’d rather see resources going towards something like build templates instead, but still props on a cool idea.

Not knowing anything about coding and junk, I can’t argue if they say it’d be a huge undertaking. Somehow it does just seem like taking all the animations and somehow reflecting them/mirroring the animation wouldn’t involve any new animations at least. And a simple check box next to weapons, like other gear has to show/hide to activate. I’ll continue to dream
