I also agree that inertia animations of our characters as they slowed and stopped was such a neat touch and I greatly miss it too.

But one thing I truly wish they would bring back/add in was the old real time ferry ride instance from 1.0. I loved catching a ship and just hanging out and chatting with my linkshell buddies while the ship sailed from Limsa to Thanalan and back again.

If they could re-implement some(or somewhat unrealistically, most) of these greatly missed features, I doubt I'd ever have a need for another MMO!

I agree about the real time Ferry rides.
There was nothing quite like riding it during the Fire Fall Fiare and setting off a bunch of fireworks with some friends during the game's night hours.

I think we'll see it return eventually, maybe as an instanced fight or event but probably never again as a travel option. A lot of people would revolt now if their precious "instant travel" was taken away...
