Likewise with the "rescue from the goblins" minigame in the other part of the Golden Saucer, that again has you jumping while avoiding bombs. You can't actually just jump and run, you have to stop and jump.
That's not a problem with wasd it's a problem with xiv's janky movement system. Plenty of games allow you to adjust your trajectory in air and their jumping feels organic and fluid. Try playing gw2 or wildstar for jumping done right.
