Yeah, I hated that too. The shield literally floats on the back of your character. I have no idea why some games have it where equipped weapons don't properly connect to your character. Dragon Age (both of them) had this problem with daggers which was annoying. It's quite annoying when you look at Mount and Blade (an indie game) and see how weapons/shields/bows do connect to your character. If that game could do it, then games with a higher budget should be able to do so too.
