Character movement speed. Is it affected with something?

The keyword is there : "feeling", they seem faster but they're not. All equip loads are the same speed, despite different animations.
Now, I'm definitely not sure of the next part, but they might have different "acceleration" (the time you take at a beginning of a sprint to reach your top speed), since it's likely tied to animations.

Only thing that affects one's speed is equip load. Please correct me if I'm wrong. But I'm sure that DEX won't make you faster.

Character movement speed is a constant. I don’t believe equip load changes your character running speed but if it does it’s very minute. Dexterity will not increase your character speed, it will increase the speed at which you cast spells however.

It is significant if your overloaded. I think after that light medium and heavy just affect your poise and rolls.
