Easy Archery!

Arrows jumping into the quiver is great, but it's only half the problem. The rest is actually picking them up. I think Arrows should "stick into" the animal, and can be retrieved when they are dead. So first you retrieve arrows, then skin, then butcher, then collect bones. This would make archery actually bearable.

He does have a point- arrows collect on the ground, and if it took twenty or thirty arrows to kill something, that can get annoying. It's a valid complaint, if not a pressing one.
Surprise.

It would be cool if you could pick up all your arrows with one click.

Yes you can move the corpse, but what if you are a noob? What if you can't 1 shot a fox?

Cool idea, bonus points if Jorb can draw a couple of images of animals with arrows sticking out of them (work harder lazy artist, it's only a gazillion more hours!)

I don't think Rey is trying to say it's a critical, must be done now, job. It's still a good idea though
