I have found several pieces of concept art with a guardian holding his/her weapon in his/her left hand. so this got me wondering: "will we be able to choose our characters handedness?" as a lefty gamer i would love this feature, it would make me feel more like my character is actually an embodiment of me. i know this might be wishful thinking because i can't think of a single game (especially shooter) that has had this option but it's about time someone give us the option. **EDIT after a little research i have found that team fortress 2 has a lefty mode** so what do you all think? should destiny have an option to make your character a lefty? would you use this option? i'll post links to the images i have found, if you find any more images that hint at left handed characters please post them here. http://static01.bungie.net/pubassets/904/titan_armor_desktop.jpg?cv=3983585470&av=1129280554 http://static01.bungie.net/pubassets/615/guardians_desktop.jpg?cv=3983585470&av=1129280554 http://static01.bungie.net/pubassets/906/hunter_armor_desktop.jpg?cv=3983585470&av=1129280554 http://static01.bungie.net/pubassets/911/battleground_desktop.jpg?cv=3983585470&av=1129280554 < firing pistol left handed http://static01.bungie.net/pubassets/615/citadel_desktop.jpg?cv=3983585470&av=1129280554 in the foreground a hunter is holding their rifle left-handed http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/news2/Bungie-Destiny-Does-Not-Have-Comics-or-TV-Content-in-Development-378606-2.jpg?1377617294 http://poptimal.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/PicMonkey-Collage.jpg

  • Dude that would be so awesome. I've never played a first person shooter that would allow you to be left handed. I just think that this isn't as popular. It would be nice to be able to see your gun on the left side for once! I really wish destiny would have this option!

  • I can use both almost equally except in writing

    It's definitely a "nice to have, understandable if it's left out" feature to me. It would be great for adding individuality for those who want it, but I'm sure there are some technical issues involved with mirroring every first and third person animation that could make it tricky to implement. But if there's someone at Bungie with some free time who can figure it out and get it going, I'd be all for that.

    • I'm right-handed, but I think that BUNGiE and the other gaming studios out there should all implement this option like most games now allow a female version of the classes for online play. I think that there is a good chance this will happen and I also want it to happen to include the lefties in video games more nowdays.

      I'm right handed, but if I wanted it to embody me, I'd have to be firing a gun lefty. Righty I wouldn't be able to see down the sights, as my right eye is (basically) blind.
