To start off with, I like playing a stealthy/silent character in games, and I love using bows. I have bow hunted and shot in competitions for almost my entire teen/adult life, so I know how they work, and how they kill.
I realize they are video games, but things like Far Cry and other FPS games, if a bow is an option, it is like "Instant silent kill 100% of the time" on all normal enemies. This makes no sense at all, as that is pretty much the opposite of real life. You are far more likely to get a fast kill with a gunshot on an animal than you would with a bow.
I don't mean to pick on Far Cry 3/4 still more, but they are the worst offenders in my book. its like you can shoot someone with a bow and they just drop dead soundlessly. Skyrim, after you get some skill points, is basically the same way from a sneak attack.
I don't want them to put like tracking a blood trail in the game, or looking for a game like that, but maybe one where once you learn how to shoot the bow it isn't Iwin mode?
