I'm pretty sure I've been gaming since the late 70s early 80s and I can't recall any game failing due to the lack of a jump command but rather the game itself being poorly done lol. Also, what does lack of animation for walking/running have to do with anything? That is actually important to a video game, plenty of games exists where you can't jump, which clearly means it's not this make or break game mechanic. Lots of people's first MMOs were MUDs, actually, but I guess you illustrated the problem with MMORPG gamers these days and why some people feel WoW invented the genre.
no, i am saying in other words that the game will be better with jump than without and there is no consequence.
many small brooks will form a big river, and jump is one of these brooks.
You have to be trolling, nor could have posted this without laughing at yourself. Animation is crucial to interactive media, Jumping is in no way, shape or form on the same level of importance to a video game lol.
but it is important. right now with no jump you ar basically glued to the ground and cant walk down simple ledges, and if you can walk down, there is no animation for it. basically you are just sliding down. and if sliding down things is compeetely perfect, then why isnt sliding around enough for an animation instead of walking animation?
