I don't see the problem here. She is using the bow horizontally, thus it makes sense. Also it's her bow, she can use it any way she please.

Edit: the big metal guard on her bow also means she needs to hold it like that. Otherwise the arrow would fall down or be in the wrong place.

"Clipping will exist in games, it's just how it is and I accept that. But it shouldn't exist in your trailers and images..."

 

Ummm yeah, that's not clipping. It's silly but it's not clipping. Clipping is where textures overlap with one another or models go through each other like this:

I find nit picking about stuff like this more distracting than the actual released art. In my mind, most of these pictures were just silly promos for facebook, that the majority of us viewed on our crappy Android/Iphones. It was good fun.

Sera is just THAT awesome with the bow!

She shoots gangsta style (ya know, gun upside down, pulling trigger with your pinky)!

 

But the truth is shes Harrison Bergeron'ed due to her amazing skills.

Now that I notice those bits in the pic too, I would have to say: It looks like Sera has never fired a bow in her life.

If those mistakes bother you too much, imagine that Sera is telling a story about this total noob she met once who couldn't shoot a bow to save his life.

I love how after reading the OP's post I actually thought people would do the reasonable thing and tell him he's overreacting, but nope. It's BSN so people actually agree with him.

I don't suppose the OP actually ever tried reaching back to draw from an imaginary quiver.

 

It doesn't really make that much of a difference if you're drawing right over your right shoulder or reaching over your left.

 

Holy crap you can't be serious.

Again, my attitude has to be...so what?

 

What ? asking Bioware to make less obvious mistakes like this is too much ?

When you guys cancel your preorder I recommend letting them know why you are cancelling.

 

"Sera's bow string is on the wrong side of her arm in the promotional companion art"

 

Maybe a hastag is required? #SeraGate

Some people are clearly overreacting. There wasn't any mention of cancelling pre-orders in OP's post. 

 

Again what's wrong with asking Bioware to improve their promotional art? Will it kill them to do some research?

Nobody is talking about cancelling pre-orders over this. Stop being so immature, this is just a matter of professionalism with their promos. With Dragon Age: Inquisition, there has been a lot of sloppy mistakes. If you're the type of person that's not bothered by this sort of thing, eh more power to ya. But there are people out there that expect Bioware to pay more attention, because something like this can break the immersion from the player.

 

I'm not gonna enable the people who are in charge over these things to be more careless in the future, by saying "Oh this is totally fine and normal." If you guys love Bioware so much, like I do, then you should know there's nothing wrong with holding them to a little higher standard than this. I'm not gonna raise a fuss if they make one or two hiccups with their promotional art, videos, or images. But this has happened A LOT, and I felt it needed to be brought to their attention.

OP, you're way overreacting. If this is what gets you worked up, I can't imagine what you must be like when you have actual problems.

Bad art is bad. But I'm more concerned with gameplay. Though if I was the artist, making mistakes like that would bug the crap outta me.

So what other "mistakes" are there that we need to cancel our pre-orders over? /s

 

(aside from floating guy, who's not really floating)

Dorian's moustache is way more fabulous than reality would allow.  Come on Bioware, do your research.

Ignoring the pre order comment, like I said there's been a lot of clipping issues in their videos and images. Here's one example in the beginning of the vid:

Another such example is this image of Vivienne where her right hand is clipping through her staff:

Not having a single glitch showing in a still of your game that you're gonna use for a promotional shot, shouldn't be a difficult thing to do. Yet this has happened more than once.

People get all worked up about the strangest things here... It's art, not an in game screenshot. The artist forgetting to remove a small section of bowstring so it doesn't go over her arm is not that big of a deal.
