Line 52:
* Nearly averted in ''[[Mount and Blade]]'' by a variety of visible sheaths, belt straps, quivers and bow cases to hold equipped items. Most two-handed weapons and shorter polearms simply stick to the back, though.
* And also done in ''[[PlanetSide]]'', where there is an animation but they don't even look backwards to see if it's on right. One possible justification is that the Exo-suits have a built-in Ancient-tech Device that keeps the Weapons from falling off.
* This trope has turned up in some of the cinematics of ''[[Hellgate
* ''[[Fallout]]''
** ''[[Fallout 3]]'' follows this trope, although for the bigger weapons this only applies to the ammo reservoir; the gun itself is presumably kept in the [[Hyperspace Arsenal]]. Except for most one-handed weapons, which stick to the hip.
** Continued in ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'', except with most of the [[Badass Longcoat]] armors, where the guns [[They Just Didn't Care|clip into the back instead.]]
* ''[[The Elder Scrolls]]'' games also fall into it, though it is most noticeable in ''[[The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion|Oblivion]]''. Many one-handed swords and daggers do actually have sheaths. Sheaths that stick to the hip.
* In ''[[Ultima IX]]'' all weapons from staffs to huge lightning swords Stick to the Back.
* This trope even sometimes occurs with [[Humongous Mecha]]; in ''Mobile Suit Gundam Crossfire'', your suit's weapons are stuck to the back while you have your melee weapon out. Said melee weapons usually avert this trope, though, as mobile suit designs usually include dedicated holding spots for their melee weapons.
