Kinda funny how games make 'walking' and 'running' speeds kind of arbitrary and what feels right - you apparently walk at over 10 miles per hour and run at 17ish The protag walks faster than most people run, runs at a pace most people can't sprint, and just from that scaling probably leaves Usain Bolt far behind in a sprint
@@goodguysfree Oh, sure, it's just in a game that doesn't feel like you're moving particularly quickly it's amusing to see that PCs still move at a pretty ludicrous speed. It just tickles my funnybone that for characters to not feel 'slow' in games we expect them to move at really silly speeds, because walking is genuinely boring if it's all you're doing.
You're right. If we'd made a movie with the protag walking at PC-game speeds, he'd constantly be bickering about how others can't keep up. But what about the ability to hold 9 pistols, 48 rifles, 20 grenades, 3-4 full space-suits, boostpacks and helmets on your person? The word "ludicrous" just doesn't cut it, if you ask me...

Oh, but you can press caps-lock to walk much more slowly, like other NPCs...
