I guess the reason I see it as weird is because I imagine FFXIV to be grounded in a sense of realism. When I do entertain the notion of high jumping acrobatics and suchlike, I think it would change the fabric of the game in a way which isn't flattering. And it's not just me being afraid to see the game change from what im used to, it's me not really seeing Wuxia combat mesh well with the world of FFXIV.
