Then wouldn't it suffice a FFXIII-like jumping? (A.k.A Auto-jump to avoid some terrain)
Because of how they've created the world it would probably be easier to introduce a jumping system like that but then it wouldn't be used for combat and such it would JUST be used to avoid minor terrain. Not as useful but it would still be better than nothing.
