>NPC is slower than your slowest walking speed
Assassin's creed wtf why
>>
>>340606457
it's almost as if the devs expect fighting of some sort to happen and made the guy slower then you so you have the capability to catch up to him when you clear the ambush

or maybe they expect you to loot things on the way but dont want you to decide between fucking up the whole quest and picking that flower over there

and then there are games that dont have any world looting mechanics and make the NPC stop when ambushed yet still make the cuck slow balls these devs are idiots who don't deserve your money
