This is such an obvious issue that it's probably been beaten to death and I just wasn't here to assist, having acquired Prophecies about a year after its release. If that is the case, I'll gladly provide the oil to be flamed.
In any event, this is my gripe: why can't we walk normally? Why must we run all the time? Walking doesn't have any practical game application per se, naturally, and most of the time we do want to just rush from one place to the next, but why on earth isn't there the option to just walk? A simple Shift-click or Shift-Direction keys, for example? It's not like the animations for that aren't there already, like when you get slowed by a hex (and on a side note, I think it looks pretty cool to walk with a hammer on the shoulder). NPCs walk normally around town, and I bet many people would like to be able to do that too, whether to position and pose for screenies or, on another note, for roleplaying situations.
Your thoughts, please.
Why can't we walk?

What's the point of walking? Seems somewhat pointless to me. Makes the game more realistic however.

I'm having a hard time dealing with the big outposts and how long it takes me to reach certain npcs... So walking would be nice to have, but then again having a speed boost in towns is better and I think it should be free as well...

This is an awsome concept for things like movies and trying to position yourself next to another person to sync dance with them. This is very possible because the animation is already there and what would it hurt if some people walked around town. I agree with you so much ill sign it again

Maybe if there's a button we can hold down while running to activate walking, that would be nice.

maybe with increased walking we'd have more characters that look like Norgu with a portly disposition instead of all being in olympic athlete shape :P jk
but seriously, i like walking animation with the huge hammer slung over your sholder=badazz

Only time I can walk is when I activate Dolyak Signet which slows down movement or when I'm hexed and my movement is slowed down
Just add a walk fuction. No need for jumping or swimming or climbing mountains. Just walking would be nice

Walking makes it look more like you've got things under control. No need to rush, be cool.

I have wondered the same thing but didn't want to open a hornets nest. RF-Online has a cool system in place that may not take that much to implament. You can switch from running to walking by pressing a button, and there is a Stamina Bar that when fullyou can wrun all you want. But while running it goes down and after it drops to zero you are forced to walk until it reaches 25% full again. A-Net could try this out to see how p[layers like it , get some feedback then implament if it is welcomed favorably.

More like have a run faster toggle lol, I certainly wouldn't mind travel in outposts 100% faster.

Walking would be a nice option Not because I think people would walk everywhere, but for the sake of having the animation available. Plus I wouldn't mind a few screenies of my chars walking serenely along a river rather than running madly. ;D

If I want to sync dance or line up with anyone all I do is click the ground near them then zoom into first person in the direction I want to face. You can pretty much stand anywhere you want with accuracy and it's not hard to do because if you know your limits then you'll know how close you can move your mouse without clicking the other guy's character name all the time instead.
Still, /signed, but I'm not sure why. You can stroll to the storage if you want, but I'll stick to running just so I can get outside faster and own some more mobs.

I think we should not only have the option to walk but also to sprint in outposts & towns cause I get really irked in places like droks when it feels like FOREVER to get from place to place

I have allways missed this feature, i would really like it in outposts ect were you can take your time. +the walk look so good when you get some speed slowing spell on you outside of towns. so Walking button/Feature, YES please!

haha to skuld, nobody without millions of dollars uses those cakes really.

Thoes Cakes can only be used in towns or outposts anyway.
Thoes cakes do have a use and alot of people do use them. Just not all the time.
I got 32 of them i think, (found them fun back then) I ONLY use them for the Walkboard game "Dragons Nest" were you really need them couse of the speed you get to hit the Wurms first, otherwise in normal towns, i find them useless and no fun to rush in there
