Don't you find it weird that when gaming, your hands have no problem finding the right hotkeys.. but when typing, your hands somehow forget where the letters are and you still look at the keyboard?

Indeed, my friend.
Have same issue as well.

Not me, but then I trained as a typist/secretary and worked as that for many years. :) When I was learning, we weren't allowed to see the keyboard - it was covered up so we had to memorize which key was where.

Typing require from us a lot of practicing. If we are working on something which require a lot of typing, at least 2-3 hours per day, then that problem almost won't exist, but if we are using a keyboard for games only, for forums where we have to think what to write all the time and it takes time and usually our eyes are going down to see where exact buttons are. When I was on faculty, I had a lot of thesis to work, and was working for money for other people, so at that time my typing skills were excellent, on English keyboard and both Latin and Cyrillic Serbian letters. Now my problem is the same like yours.

Not really, ever since some typing classes in High School a few years ago I haven't really had issues with typing (aside from numbers and characters like ^ or things I don't normally use)
-
Not really weird, since it's a basic motor memory. Hands act automatic on reflex, when you are gaming, because they remember their right positions, whilst when you are typing, it's more of a eye memory.

I wish. It has happened to me more than once when playing a game with WSAD keys for movement, that I mistakenly set my left hand down on the wrong keys: EDSF.
