I love this, it's perfect, thank you. Kinesthetics are SO important and so often overlooked.

I love the heck out of this. It's wonderful to notice something that was hiding in plain sight, to see it through the attentive eyes of a thoughtful observer.

These are gorgeous. "Only a true dad decends stairs in such a manner. Look at him in his cargo trousers."

The first Uncharted I played was Uncharted 4 - and I was absolutely stunned by how real the walking was. When Nate goes down the stairs he lifts his arms up at the shoulder, and it looked so realistic. He also steps on each stair! I'm glad i'm not the only one to notice these perfect details
