Right, you can hear them from further away, but they still sound like they are close. The sound needs to be altered / EQed to sound as far away as the sound source really is.

Agreed. I was hoping I'd get used to it, but after 2 weeks of trying on Stable (and some time on Experimental) I don't think I will. It seems to not matter whether the source of the steps is right next to you or 20 meters away, they sound the same, which is very irritating.

Agreed, when someone/something is 50-60 m away I feel as it was max 15 m away
