But still you act like you didn't hear us and come up with the same old and tired argument that was dismissed a hundred times. And to put some weight behind your argument, you quote FFXI.....

I played XI, i played WOW, Aion, Warhammer, LOTRO, Ragnarok 1 and 2 Beta, Perfect world and i'm forgeting some I'm sure. But the point is i played many MMOs and seen different aspects of MMORPG game play. You on the other hand like most FFXI fans, haven't played anything but that so how can you argue that the best reason for not having jump is because FFXI didn't?

Street fighter 2 didn't have super or ultra moves, yet i'm not gonna say SF4 doesn't need them. Times change my friend, you need to evolve and let go of your nostalgia.
first off, the reason i mentioned FFXI was because i was giving the example of immersion not the fact that they didnt add jump also. read: "along with FFXI that you actually feel like its another world of PEOPLE".

second: any action can be abused sure but its not something that would be an obvious unaturality. people can smile and laugh all they want, it happens in the real world, so one person abusing emotes doesnt ruin immersion. however, everyone on screen jumping over and over again to walk does.
third: there is nothing wrong with being a fan of a game and liking what they did, and as you said: "Times change my friend, you need to evolve and let go of your nostalgia." jumping doesnt need to be the standard anymore. your the one trying to make it into the same as everything else. like the games that you yourself listed. but times change and you need to get over the fact that a game doesnt need to be good just because you can jump on every house, swim down every ocean, and fly on every bird you find.
adding a cool down would be more tolerable, and i will say, i didnt see that listed so dont act like im the entire "jumping con community" however it would need to be adjusted to not be too long and too short, along with the fact that adding jump is adding another dimension of movement and thus causes alot more problems which will also need to be heavily adjusted and i think they have enough on there hands.

and the problems i mean, adjusting collisions on every object you can reach, what happens when you land on top of something, do you stay on it or slide off, can you use that to reach places that arent intended to get to, and then that breaks things.

and i would lasty like to ask you to control yourself, theres no need to pop a blood vessel on someone who just started talking in the conversation. dont assume that everyone knows everything
