Modern means nothing but the newest thing around. Just because something is new does not automatically make it better. I swear, every time I hear the phrase "Get with the times" I just want to punch all the babies!
If the most popular game uses some new feature, it does not mean that every game around needs to meld them into their gameplay. Now, sometimes these features are good, sometimes they're just an alternative that doesn't really add or take away from anything, and sometimes they are horrible additions to games that have no real point in having the features.

This is the reason most action games are God of War ripoffs and most shooters feature a short hared Space Marine or Scruffy Soldier in a war torn dark and grungy setting.

This has nothing to do with adding jumping into XIV though, I just hate this line of reasoning.
