"For our younger audience, I might say, use sprint only when you really have to," Ulmer suggested. "Don't sprint through the game all over the place. There's a lot of things to enjoy, as Jon mentioned, a lot of things to hear, to think about, just to absorb the atmosphere. So sprint only when you actually have to sprint, running from a lot of threats that will try to chase you. In that case, go for it. But it's like a good movie. Playing this story just in order to finish, it's a bad idea. Enjoy it. Take your time."

If you give players the option to sprint or run, they're going to always run. Even in games like Half Life 2. The default movement is "fastest". You have to pace your cutscenes with the assumption that some players will just absolutely blast through the content (and/or completely ignore/skip dialogue) or sprint the whole way, and that's fine.

If games are too slow-paced, they also die (see: Witcher 3, many, many players started it, but didn't finish it, despite its commercial and critical success).

If you want the actual canon, they did it as an act of mercy for their creators, even after humanity blacked out the sun/sky causing a global permanent ecological collapse. They could have just let humanity perish with no deficit to themselves.

It's only slavery for the humans because they're unhappy inside the matrix (due to the hedonic treadmill and philosophical concepts of freedom, agency, and reasons).

Outside the matrix, billions of humans and no agriculture means they'd be dead.

It's a commonly overlooked portion of the story because it's a bit too cerebral for the movie going audience; I highly recommend watching The Animatrix (canon prequel) for the full details

I train LLMs. It do be like this.

However, I highly don't recommend it for a multitude of reasons: You will always be speaking with a simulacrum of a person and not the actual person.

The simulant may forgive you.

The ex never will.

I figured this out with lateral thinking independently

It works

That's a good point

I recall reading that the "Facehugger" scene was unrehearsed/the actors weren't informed so their concern and terror was real

I can't give you anything more than an upvote, so here's a positive comment on your insightfulness/accuracy +1

Now if they hire Guy Godin as well, the wireless VR dream team will be complete
