I hereby declare that i find it very detrimental to the game the following aspects of gameplay: 2 handers with different speeds and the use of slashing animations for piercing weapons (except for picks) and declare that i find these problems to be intolerable and the continued enduring of them to be utterly absurd. Therefore i propose that these things are fixed with utmost haste for the betterment of the overall game play in this otherwise exquisite game.

I hope this is tongue in cheek.... because there are so much more serious issues to work on, and if THIS is making your gameplay experience intolerable and "enduring" them being absurd, you have deeper issues than this game.

While I agree that there are other issues more worthy of fixing presently , the fact that great axes and mauls swing sooo much faster than other 2 handers is ludicrous. Its so bad that using anything but those 2 weapons is almost a form of self gimping.
As far as slashing animations for piercing weapons ... could care less.

Would also love to see the GS/Falchion caught up, this is what happens when you let artists make game mechanic like decisions. Very dumb. While the graphic for holding the axe and maul are different, you do swing them the same if you want the most affect. Anyone who has ever chopped/split wood by hand knows this...so doesnt make logical or game mechanic sense but hey, it looks good right?;)

ThF weapons should all have the same attack speed. Greatswords should be as fast a greataxes!!
As for the piercing animation, it'd be cool but I understand it would be a lot of resources for these.

All weapons of the same type should attack with the same speed. Piercing animations can wait.

just like the cleave speeds should be fixed as well...why you cleave 4 times as fast with a shield eqipped as not is beyond me.

QFT. The weapons are supposed to be balanced out of the box so to speak. They really shouldnt have messed with the mechanics of how they work with stadard attacks and feats any more than they absolutely had to

Think its more of an already longstanding issue. Every swing added weve been losing groud since day one. Gets worse and worse, then add the extremely slow last swing and using a greatsword can really suck. I know, dont use one. Why didnt I think of that.:rolleyes:
Its nice when people who arent affected by your problem tell you its no big deal though, thanks.:) Game breaking? no, getting really annoying(since day 1)? absolutely.
Equalize THF speed animations using GS and falchion speed increases (not GAxe and maul decreases :) )- signed.
Pierce animation - do that when everything else is done.
