To be perfectly fair. On average how many times a day do you jump?

Now on average. How many times a day would you jump if wearing full plate armor?

Will everyone jump the same height? Will Lalafells be upgraded with T-rex legs so they can jump proportionate to a Chigger just to match a Roegadyn's gallop? Will gear dictate your maximum vertical clearance? Will it not look odd when the Paladin that is wearing a Human shaped ice breaker hull can leap as high as the nimble Thief (Its coming!) donned only in his subligar and lucky Flee Shoes?

I'm not on board with a jump button. I would be ok with terrain context sensitive smart maneuvers though. You hate that ledge? You see that log? Observe that bottomless trench? Ok good, when your character presses up against them you will automatically bramble over. With a predetermined jump height, length, and pose. Let's people feel like that are actually run through and over obstacles they would encounter in the Wilds of Final Fantasy without adding, an admittedly, useless and therefore pointless gimmick which does get on people's nerves. I've being very proud of FFXIV for keeping things down to Earth. To go the way of the retard-o zoboomafoo lop because they want the Call of Duty audience would turn my views very sour.
