Re: Footsteps

SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

I think that the footsteps are toast - except where it adds to the plot. The problem with footstep sounds, IMHO, is while they add to the atmosphere when you initially hear them, you get used to hearing them and eventually they even become tedious. On this basis I can see the Hulk having footstep sounds: it can add to the plot and you don't run into a lot of Hulks so it's unlikely to become tedious. On the other hand if we can't come up with anything cool maybe there will be no footstep sounds at all. In the next update if there is still a player footstep sound it will only be due to an oversight.
