Man I love that animation, it’s part of why I’m still playing this game to date. I’m sorry but when I’m running at full speed, or even at a jog, if I decide to stop instantly the momentum has to go somewhere. You know where it goes? My upper body, because my feet are planted…And I sway.
That’s how life works, and it makes the game feel more realistic. Conservation of energy brah, laws of physics.
