Well, I do like the idea - I really adored the jumping puzzles in GW2.
I dislike the execution. It felt very clumsy and often more like an exploit than something intended.

I do like the jump puzzle overall, and the added difficulty to the sightseeing log - just jumping off my mount to /lookout was getting a tad boring when the only thing that requires effort is to LOOk for the places, so in that aspect I think it's a great improvement!
It's quite funny :) I've not seen so many people doing the same thing (almost obsessively) since... hunts, probably? This one in particular is hilarious - it's just a shame it depends more on your ability to predict where the next invisible jump box will be and where the walls that look a foot away from you will STILL clip your jump lmao
Jump potions.
I don't mind about some challenging vistas (WITHOUT THE TIME NOR THE WEATHER STUFF). However, I don't want challenging vistas for "nothing" (besides the exp, and the log). I would like a reward for completing all, like they did with the Apkallu minion from the 2.0 vistas.
Tried it today, got stuck on one spot for 20 minutes and just said "f" it. The way it is right now it's mostly luck that you landed on an invisible hitbox or not. Not fun, just frustrating.
Make it a quest and give me a buff that I can see the hitboxes and it might be something fun to do.
I wish they hadn't added jump puzzles back into the sightseeing log. I understand wanting to show off the city, but jump puzzles in this game drive me mad and are one of the reasons I've never completed 2.0's sightseeing log. I enjoyed doing Heavensward's log though.
I hate jump puzzles. Sorry.
But, once I did quests, I walked on rood. Remind me Assassin's creed XD
I'm all for more puzzles and fun challenges.
The 2.0 sightseeing log was still top tier. Heavensward ones were such a letdown!
I liked climbing that thing. It took me three separate sessions, and a total of around an hour and a half, before I made it. But, boy, did it feel good. I chilled with a few other people up there for a good hour. It was very rewarding for someone like me, who enjoys the side stuff.
