Best and Worst running/walking animations in games

LOL still gets meThread already damaged by HornyPosting but here
I love the acceleration in 2B's running animation.
I love how she runs lol, it feels like she's the fucking Terminator lol
Couldn't find a better gif, but the walking and running animations of Mr. Game and Watch in Smash Bros. are great!
Best walking is Bayonetta, especially with bazookas equipped
(her running is a bit awkward though)
Came here for this. Bayo's walk is THE BEST.
Big bump, but not new thread worthy.
Anyone recall a terrible conversation animation where the character was super anime animated with flailing arms and stuff? Conversation was mundane but character's animation was hyper anime. Happens is way too many JP games, but there was one in recent years that stood out. I just can't remember what game it was!

Worst goes to all EA games that have that awkward motion captured "Ash Ketchum runs at the end of Episode 1 Pokèmon" feel to it. Fallen Order has it too.
I just realized how this works mechanically since there's two different sprint animations based on the gun you carry. They seperated the animation of the torso from the legs, and try to make it look synced but it ends up looking like it's two animations cut over in the middle.
There's just something about running in the Mass Effect games... *chefkiss*
edit: beaten by seconds
This has been my biggest point of contention as I run through The Evil Within 2. I cannot stand Sebastian's default jog animation because he still moves at a snail's pace and I just find it so weirdly annoying I wish he was just walking instead.
the big dick energy from this animation could be felt all across tamriel with every stride Runs-Over-Cliffs took.
edit: I've a fondness for the rotoscope animations of old, particularly the OG Prince of Persia.
Its also designed for when you're wearing armour, it doesn't really look as bad in the rest of the game.

I've always loved this .gif so much.
Makes me laugh every time.
Can't find a gif but I found those first few steps John Marston walked off the train very impressive.
These are the correct answers
2B and Aloy have some of the best running animations I've witnessed.
I love how Aloy especially shifts her weight once in a while and doesn't just run in a perfectly straight line
Astral Chain.
I love the acceleration in 2B's running animation.
2B's running animation is pretty pefect. People meme it because haha ass, but it's the only running animation that actually feels and looks like running and not jogging or like running with pants full o' poop.
This is great, Ars Technica also has a really good War Story about the making of the game (a lot of the same stuff, but still a good watch).

When they're good, they contribute significantly to the atmosphere and art style of the game. That might sound like an exaggeration, but look at Alucard from Symphony of the Night.
Regal elegance. Exertion with restraint. Fluid and detailed. Very unique.
No. Alucard always looked like he was running in place. His movement is dynamic and smooth, but doesn't match the speed he's moving at. He moves too slow for the way he's running.
I always thought that was intentional. It gives him an supernatural vibe. Like he's floating across the ground.
