That also happens in the world of Tyria. :P
When you are in combat, you move a little slower.
Once you get out of combat, you start running faster. The running becoming faster it’s like a little mini-sprint, because we have to percept the change of pace.
The same thing happens in SAB.
1UP.
Reason: it’s a nostalgic casual game to have, not only for the gamers who want to chill a little from PvP, WvW or even PvE, but also for nostalgic gamers who would want to remember “the old days”.
Also, since it’s independent from the World of Tyria, there shouldn’t be any haters (only the ones who expected better stuff from the monthly event). It’s a chill-out experience proportioned not only for the oldies (25+ years old), but also for the new ones, who want to know how it was in the primordial of gaming times.
Cheers and let the new worlds come
Also: give it a little more difficulty, since the old games were difficult as hell LOL, unlike the games nowadays, that are super easy to advance (there are exceptions though). I remember when DOOM appeared, and dying would mean going back all the way to the beginning of the level. LOL
