I have to say that I much prefer the way how archer is handled in G1 & 2. In these games, I only direct the bow towards the direction of a highlighted enemy then shoot and will hit. G3 requires I have to aim so that the mouse cursor either point on the target or above it in case if it is far away. If you think that the later way is closer to real life, you are wrong. Why? a marksman uses his eyes to find the target, and his bow will aim automatically onto the target and causes a hit, much as in driving*. Archer in G3 behaves like a rookie learning to shoot rather than a marksman's.
* we drive with the eyes which automatically coordinate with our hands to keep us on the road when we pass the learning period which may last a year or so.
