If the game was realistic everyone would've broken their hands after punching the first tree they see.

You know it's kind of crazy to think that most people associate Dodos with being fat slow birds when in reality they supposedly could run up to like 20 mph if they really wanted to.

Like the left one is the one almost everyone bases their views of them but those ones were often based off the ones kept in captivity which became obese from being overfed so that was why they were very slow and fat compared to the right one which is what wild dodos apparently actually looked more like with them being way less bulky and also their leg bones apparently having shown that they were built for quick movement which let them run at speeds that I had to triple check because I didn't think they were capable of those speeds before putting it in the title but I guess it does make sense given their build and the environment they evolved in that they could run at like that speed for a short period
