is there anyway to make keyboard controls tighter for jumping puzzles?

trying to do hingashi jumping puzzle but the controls are just too loose for me

The problem isn't controls, some of the hitboxes for the platforms are really weird. You'll think you've missed one but end up standing on thin air, then go to make a jump and fall through the next platform. It's just kinda janky.

My favorite is always bonking my head on something that isn't there.

As a Roe, I always feel I'm bumping my head on something when jumping. it's like they forgot there are races taller than a Miqo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


*Edit* to clarify, I mean the actual character phases through or bonks whenever there's another ledge above, so I always hesitate whether the head of my character hits an invisible wall when jumping or not. If the game had realistic physics, it'd be literally impossible for big races to do the puzzles

Female Au'ra are the second shortest race in the game outside of Lalafell. Still bonk all the damn time.

If they intend to keep FFXIV going (which they totally could if they wanted, hate saying it like "the game is going to die" cause clearly and really is not, just worry about deep seeded issues continuing on and on lol)- I really hope elements like this get improved. Movement is not the worst I've experienced but it is certainly not the best movement I've experienced in an MMO (or game in general). Also I know movement is a nebulous term of many issues but I just mean that in general, like you know how in some games your dashes feel elegant and snappy and here in this game not really. Collision detection isn't the same as the movement systems controlling dashing of course, but they all come together to make an experience of 'movement'.

Very janky. As a PC player on keyboard I've just had to give up on jumping puzzles, which unfortunately means I've had to give up on the sightseeing log. When I do jumping puzzles in other games with a controller, there's a certain amount of control I still have while jumping, but with keyboard you set yourself off and you can't really adjust on the way if things are going pear-shaped.

There are a handful peppered across the sightseeing logs (the big one being jumping up to the top of the huge tower in Kugane you walk through as you enter by the docks).
And there's usually a seasonal event about jumping up a wooden tower.

I think a higher framerate can make some jumps harder.
