The removal of environmental collision detection is BEAUTIFUL.

You may want to know that in 99% of engines collision is just made by a 3D shape with a true/false switch.

So, those characters?

Can you make your point clearer? I am not following/seeing the relevance.

You're saying that it's a "such waste of programming", while it's simply a true/false switch. You could probably go through switching them all from true to false and back in an afternoon.

Still, you'd think they'd have better things to do.

Like improving the playability of the game? Oh wait! This is exactly what they did with this change.

You really must have not played much if the timewasting detours around the ledges and fences didn't bother you.

I'm alright with all of them, but what I'm not alright with is this. It makes stuff look really unrealistic, and it's not even something we need, because unlike with stairs or players, you can just walk around any fence or hill.

Yes, you indeed missed how much people complained exactly about having too walk around fences or hills.

Oh come on, how lazy can people get?

To the point that many new Korean MMOs have a feature that auto-runs your character to Quest NPCs.

there's already a LOT of running to do in this game. I don't think the term "lazy" even applies to FFXIV players.

no it is lazy........ "oh this is so bothersome to have to walk around this fence that is meant to block my path, great now I can just walk through it" yes this is 100% lazy as hell.

Laziness is a phrase that should only be reserved for FFXI players - like me

Seriously, that 30 second walk to get from the Port Jeuno mog house to the Abyssea warp NPC that gives me instant travel to 3/4 of the planet? Totally uncalled for. I want my Moogle (and all Nomad Moogles) to warp me to Horst! "Make it so, kupo!"

In all fairness, being able to jump over said fences would have been a better idea than just removing their collision detection. The terrain collision I am all for having been removed.
