yeah and in Japan that game was called Final Fantasy USA -.-

It was labeled as "a dumbed down RPG for the American audience"

All of the Final Fantasy Tactics games have jumping of a sort, pretty sure there's even a Jump stat.

Leaping Boots will rise again!

Although it would take a lot of work on Se's side. I don't think there would be a problem with jumping, I'm not really for or against it. There is nothing in the game currently that I wish so badly I could jump over, that I can't just go around. I do think I would rather SE put adding jumping as a very low priority though, there's a lot of other things I'd rather see first.

Vertical movement is not necessary in any video game. Go back to QQing.

What about the Descent series, or any flight-sim...?

Yeah I want to see everyone bunny hopping everywhere for no reason.

No thanks.

I wouldn't care if they let people jump in ffxi

that being said I would hope they concentrate on making lvl 99 content playable and fun instead of a jump feature

Jumping has many legitimate uses, especially in this game where every tiny little object seems to get in your way.

I really hate people using the excuse "people will jump around like idiots for no reason." The immaturity of a few people is not a good reason to not have a feature.

On a side note, in FFXIV they were considering adding jumping.

It would be nice to get over some obstacles in the game.. like i always get stuck on the stairs in ordelle's cave and and the leujaoam sanctum assault zones.

I don't think it should be a priority right now.. especially with all the big changes they are making and with there not even being endgame content atm... I would hope they spend time on content instead of gimmicks like a jump feature.

Why do you assume only the immature will do so? While running around there is nothing else to do, and thus many people will simply tap the jump button repeatedly, to make it slightly less boring than running around would otherwise be.
