Crossover events and breaking immersion

I remember the alpha threads where people complained giving the player characters the option to jump would ruin immersion.

We then went through pages where people were suggesting things like adding a cooldown to jump.

I haven't taken immersion complaints seriously since.

If you want to die a little inside, the whole "Jump breaks Immersion" thing was a defense of the then producer Tanaka (yes, FFXI Tanaka) when he blundered into some bad publicity by saying that "FFXIV doesn't need to have a [jump button]."
