Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Is this the force implementation at work or is this a bug?

Yeah, seen this quite a few times. Definitely a bug.

'The force...' is new for this release I guess it's applying extra damage even when it didn't need to. Still, can't a hip bone be shattered twice...?

Yeah, I assume it could be. I don't care, it's just worded weird is all.

It is also mentioned that it's spinning, and the force is applied after it hits him, basically I imagine getting hit with an arrow, that arrow going into me and the rest of it's kinetic force affecting my body in that brief moment that it became firmly lodged into me.

Ah, I see the hip bone is actually shattered 3 times.
First the spear hit the hip bone shattering it, then the force of the blow twisted the hip bone in a weird direction shattering it again. And then it shatterd a third time just for the hell of it.

Pretty sure all thrown objects will be described as spinning when they hit someone.

Most throwing objects do spin when you throw them even in real life. There's maybe one or two here or there that are meant for a straight-hand throw, but most are intended to be spun as they leave your hand. The spinning stabilizes them. It's why rifling on a gun barrel makes the difference between a modern accurate rifle and an old musket.
