On this episode of the Pogcast we talk about how the player moves  throughout the world in Tarkov. We talk about how the stamina system prohibits a lot of movement and how the audio system pushes people to  either sit still or recklessly push in every fight. Additionally we talk  about how all of Tarkov's systems are so linked together it can be hard  to suggest a change for one that doesn't break another. We also talk  about streaming, content creation, and how it's not always as simple as  "Play whatever game you want". Check it out!
