I seem to be alone in thinking this but high tier foot soldiers are far too athletic.
They seem to run everywhere as a standard motion and it looks ridiculous watching them slide over the landscape with no friction or weight to them.
Its silly watching guys with heavy armor and a huge shield just run and run and run forever.
Alot of effort was put in to make cavalry feel really grounded and rigid, and yet people on foot skate around with none of it. The pacing is totally imbalanced.
It may be one of the reasons why cavalry are suffering somewhat. Infantry AI is too good at times, often sniping cavalrymen right off their horse by performing an operation on their legs as they fly past at 20mph. I dont enjoy playing cavalry too much in this game, the AI are far too efficient at removing your shoes and clipping your toenails with perfect precision and accuracy as you attempt to jump them. Most lances are too short to outrange them too.
I was hoping for a slower, heavier pace in Bannerlord, with armor that actually functions. Instead I got the opposite, floaty infantry combat, peasants comparable to legionaries, vibranium arrows, crappy cavalry and armor made of tissue paper.
Hoping these things are fixed in future patches, but I am concerned that everyone is content with sword and board surfers.
