Restricted Sprint?

[quote] I don't think so. Not only is encumbrance and fatigue one of the most annoying features in games (it has absolutely no place in games - if I want to feel encumbered I'll go run a marathon while carrying a washing machine), it makes literally no sense within the horror idiom. The human body is capable of almost anything in times of intense fear - if you're running away from a monster you simply are not going to stop sprinting and suddenly start walking because of a want for energy.[/quote]
Maybe there should be some kind of "adrenaline mode" which deactivates any restrictions, e.g. if the player is chased by a monster. Maybe with increased running speed, but negative effects when this mode ends.
