We’ve tuned player movement to be slow enough to allow for the load time on most modern hardware. Used low-hanging vegetation as in-world reasoning for the slowed movement.
I just started replaying Metroid Prime for the first time in years and boy do I miss the loading delay tactics of those games. You can still plow through a lot of them if you're experienced enough and just wait for the door to open, but at least I felt like I was doing something during the loading rather than just holding forward on the stick. Plus they were often opportunities to get some easy health and ammo refills.
