Which supports my call for a animation speed slider even more. Since the factor of "slowness tolerance" in people is a variable, it only makes sense to have a slider in the game for the player to configure the animation speed to their liking.

This is like playing an FPS without the capability to ...

I think I just have to get this off my chest. In all my years of playing RPGs, from Darksun to Fallout to Planescape: Torment to Arcanum and beyond, I've never had any problems with walking speed. Darksun occasionally frustrated me because the controls were a little clunky, but that was okay for me ...

Baldur's Gate allowed you to pan the camera to the destination, click there, and then you can sit back while your character finds his way to that destination. In Eschalon, you only move one tile per click, unless you hold the mouse key down. There's no pathfinding per say, and thus it requires ...

wimps =P ( I don't remember being able to walk faster in older games that fit this genre?)...The game is turn based, therefore speeding up the "walk" would be animation and game speed in general.
...Since the game moves one tile as you do, I don't see how adding a variable speed slider will break ...

My laptop doesn't have any problems with that though.

Thing is you [can't] use [Quicktravel] in dungeons, and I groan every time I realize I need to walk all the way back to the entrance to get out of the dungeon. Hammerlorne has a magical portal, but the Kuudad sewers (and the thiefs guild underneath it) is a glaring example of how not to design a ...

Just to be sure, you know about the Quick Travel signs ?

Yes, I use them all the time, even on the same map to avoid walking back to the town to sell loot.

wimps =P ( I don't remember being able to walk faster in older games that fit this genre?) Also to add, if you want realism in your fantasy, I could sweet talk the boss into introducing a fatigue system that makes you walk faster for 15 seconds and then drag arse for the next 5 minutes. LOL The ...

I also enjoy the eschalon games, but also wish for a way to walk faster...

I like the idea of a walking speed slider or speed setting

I get the issue of having the vast area, but would like to move along faster even if the time of day passing speeds up with the speed

i guess everyone knows how much of a fan i am of the game, so i'll add my 3 cents in here: it's like real life. there are some places on this planet that you aren't ever going to find anything...antartica, the sahara desert, idaho...these are places devoid of pretty much everything civilized.

I am about 10 hours into the game, and while I have heaps of praises for it I realized that out of that 10 hours, more than 6 hours are spent on just walking from one place to another.

Can't this game just add a slider to determine walking speed? I am currently in Port Kuuldad's sewers and had to ...
