https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUUA7jMIoXc ( A good example of the old Movement Weight)
It's been many years and I'd still like to request this be optionally toggled back into game.
It was so much more immersive back then, heck even making it so it only occurred when your weapon is sheathed would be awesome. I know it was removed for the purposes of combat but it's about half a second more of animation to gradually 'stop'.
I don't really quite get why it was removed for this reason as positioning etc wouldn't change much to avoid AOEs if it was combat enabled.
I really do miss this feature, made it seem more polished/immersive than just slapping into your idle animation.

It's not coming back. The reason being is that there is a huge delay in movement if momentum is brought back. Ifrit 1.0 was a total pain because of the delay of movement it caused. Even the development team saw this as something negative. There could be an alteration in how the momentum can be brought back, but I do not believe that the original 1.0 momentum will come back.

It's certainly an option I would use if they implemented it, but they would definitely have to disable it in instances.

I like how it looked back then and I certainly want it back, it feels more realistic!...
Enable it out of combat and disable it while fighting, win-win for everyone and make it an optional setting for those that don't want to make use of the feature!... -

to be honest if they added the animations back and it didnt move you just a nice QoL i can get behind this 100000% if the momentum is added back in as a full thing i would still be behind it.

Momentum =/= slower starts if the apparent potential speed differs. A sprint taking a moment to start will still cover the same speed as a jog already at its peak.
They can scavenge the FFXV movement concepts if they like -- although those, too, could use some improvement. -

Just look at Horizon Zero Dawn or any game capable of making a stop-turn (as opposed to something like Assassin's Creed, where every movement gets overextended on redirection). If it works for a game where you live or die by your dodge potential, and rates largely from its feeling of free movement, I get the feeling it's not impossible...Quote:

Yes this please but optional. I miss it so much and would love it back.

Personally, I enjoy being able to dodge AoEs...
