Does running cause more fatigue?

[HunZolka]

I'd guess it does/should, but can't say for certain after 25 hrs gameplay. Can someone confirm?

This...is a darn good question....I almost want to test. walking back n forth in an area vs. running back n forth, between rests. I would naturally assume running = Get there faster before next rest, but that may not be the case. May get there faster but may need to rest more....hmmmm

imo not, just because running != fastening time ... everything around you would move as fast as you in that case.

depends how you define more fatigue.
Your fatigue will increase faster, because you are moving faster, but you will be able to cover the same amount of terrain running as walking with one fatigue bar, meaning you will save on your time as a player.
So run you heart out, just remember to keep some of the stamina bar for those times you actually want to run away from something.

Running does not equate to making time go by faster. In game time moves at the same speed whether you are running or walking, otherwise there would be no point, since when you would attempt to run away it would only accelerate the things you're running away from.

maybe a better way to ask, travelling from one town to the next takes 20 minutes walking and 13 minutes running. During that 13 minute run, you have to rest 10 minutes in. If you just walked during this, would you still have to rest after 10 minutes or could you walk longer than 10 minutes?

Answered that in my previous response. You cover as much distance running as walking before needing to rest.

mmmmmmmaybe, so short is, it's actually cheaper to walk (not factoring in when getting chased by something you do not want to fight)

No, it's cheaper to run, because you as a player spend less time accomplishing the task, but keep in mind to keep enough of your stamina bar to escape if you want to.

For a simple analogy, you are not using more gas per kilometer when going faster.
If you were to translate it to a car, do you think it's cheaper to go fast to cover 100 miles or slow to cover 100 miles, if you spend as much gas to cover 100 miles regardless of speed?
