Kugane Sightseeing Jump Puzzle

[Roda]

Yeah no this game is trash-tier for jumping puzzles. The fact that you can barely control your jumps at all is infuriating for something like this to be blocking completionism. Not to mention this one puzzle is riddled with invisible walls that make you have to stand in the air more than you actually stand on the pegs and camera angles that just make it near impossible to see where you're jumping.

This heap is a 0/10 for me.
Revamp the character control system and then get back to me on this, SE.


A few examples of how horridly crafted this "puzzle" is.

You have to stand on the invisible collision box of this peg to land on the invisible collision box of the next. If you land on the actual physical peg, you will hit your head on the roof and not make the jump.



You have to stand on the invisible collision box of this peg to make it to the ledge, otherwise the invisible collision box of the corner will be in the way of your jump.


Imo, burn this thing to the ground, put the vista somewhere actually accessible and then reimplement this thing when you've actually QA tested it. Because right now, it's only "fun" to masochists.

It was nice to get to the top but the process was a real chore. Far too easy to get caught on the geometry of the building mid jump and fall halfway back down wasting time and effort. I'm not opposed to jumping puzzles but I'd rather have better control of my jumps and to not get stuck on invisible objects while doing them.

Got it! Friends helped me and Momo too.

Cool! Looks like I have some jump training to do!

As a largest height Roe, this was a nightmare to complete while fighting with the camera. I actually failed on the final jump before the roof about 5 times. Although really it's just like every EX fight in the game, repetition until you get it down perfectly. Felt good as hell to make it up to the top.

Yea practice makes perfect, I can now pretty much jump up in one go consistently. It's really fun to do because it's largely practice/skill.

Also for more help, someone an alternative path to save your run if you fall in the middle: https://streamable.com/d0qyv

To be honest im just glad it's not like idylshire where you couldn't jump on anything but the rock becks of invisible walls all of hevensward was invisible walls I hated it it felt constricting

[Crysten]

It's also pretty damn fun to watch from ground level when people keep falling off...

This is not a good game for jump puzzles, sorry. I'm sure the guide will be helpful to some, but I hope it's the last jump puzzle I ever see in ffxiv.

i dont like jump puzzles that much overall.

But i cant stand that opinion.. maybe you should just dont do them maybe? But why are you hoping its the last?

I dont get opinions like these at all.

Well said my friend. I personaly like that parkour "track". I find it a nice addition to kill time. I also find it reasonable for people not to like it. Very understandable. But what I dont get is how can anyone be that hateful about it. Only thing i can imagine is that he failed so many times and he is just venting.
