There's something very subtly wrong with Malachi's walk cycle: not in the cutscenes, but in the game proper. Sometimes when I study it, I think it's that he's leading with his knee: is it possible that there's no hip shift before the femur starts to move? I know males have significantly less hip shift than females, but if it's not there at all, the walk looks wrong.
Unfortunately this isn't something that can be changed at this point in development, but we appreciate the feedback.
