Two handed animations for two handed weapons. Possible?

I'm starting to think that you might not really know what you're talking about, lol.

I'm questioning your physics logic, lol.

Mage staves are more or less just an ornate quarterstaff and designed to be wielded two-handed, when used as a physical weapon to strike with.

Erm... yes... so? FFXIV, your mages in XIV hit physically with their staff? No, they cast spell.

Also clubs are small, 1 handed weapons, usually. Unless you're talking about the tsuba, of course, which is a giant freaking stick of death.

Yes of course, big ass clubs that are meant to be swung two hand and deal massive damage. I'm not keen in sissy weapons for physical/melee characters.

Giantswords" like what we see in anime and video games never existed, though there were some pretty big swords out there (bidenhänder, zweihänder/flammenschwert, daikatana, etc).

I already stated Cloud's weapon as an example previously. Jecht's sword is pretty gigantic for another example. Whilst these 2 characters does have the strength to hold and wield them single hand to a certain degree, but these weapons are usually 2 handed.

My post above [ http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post2325160 ] have further explanations to why mage staff should continue to be one-hand holding for obvious animation reasons.

I'm not interested in movement restricting and boring cast animations like Dagger in IX did.


EDIT: Ultimately, it is undoubtedly that single hand holding of a staff gives greater potential for movement animation and fluid movements. Like I said, go take a pole and stand in front of a mirror and try movements with it, single hand and double hand. The results and impressions you get is just, obvious. Holding it 2 handed just reminds you of axes and swords mostly.
