* The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
* Design ideas:
Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)
I don't quite make the connection. The annoying squeaky toy is jarring and takes a lot of effort to ignore. Guys jumping in place because they happen to be bored are easy to ignore. That's just me, anyways.

(Above post) Kinda does; the people arguing against it are those same types...Take 80% of the people that left and these things including jump was in top 10 of wtf's... That says something. Its an MMO and none of its game braking; matter of fact its pretty standard stuff...I swear half of you act like 60 y.o's swinging their walking sticks at the nearby kids.
One of the biggest jokes about FFXIV is copy pasta and jump...
I'll use an example even you can understand (I can be passive aggressive too.)I have not taken a "you're not one of us so leave" stance with people who have different opinions.
Just saying its silly to say to people 'go play rift', 'then go play that X game' or go back to wow. People are here cause they want this game to succeed. Stop telling them to go away, you don't really want that. People going away makes for a very sad lonely mmo....
I want to play a FPS, am I going to demand SE add FPS elements to XIV? Or will I go play a game where it's already present?
I agree to disagree with every opinion in this thread! We need more cowbell!
Everything you listed was added for terms of convenience. Jumping does not make anything more convenient. It would only satisfy a certain OCD condition related to pressing a jump button repeatedly, or satisfy the people who crossed over from World of Warcraft to trick them into thinking they are still playing the same game.Unlimited(with delay) or Zelda/FF13~ style
To the people saying jump has no purpose in the game:
Neither does Auto-run
Neither does Auto-follow
Neither does lock-on
Neither does a Delivery system
Neither does color coded text
Neither does a search function
Neither does monster levels
Neither does mini-map
Neither does Widgets
Neither does the journal
.... which we all know isn't true. Of course jump adds to the game just like everything listed above.

But its not an fps, its a platform/pc MMO and jumping is standard.
Maybe you should go back to playing ______, if you don't like jumping in FFXIV?
As you see, the above sentence is not a very nice thing to say. You can argue without telling people to f*k off.
