In a recent Japanese (E3?) interview, Yoshi stated that... (and I'm paraphrasing here at the top of my head from what I remember) that you will be able to use the jump mechanic to jump over ledges or down them. The problem of people having to route themselves due to small obstacles will no longer be an issue. However, in situations where jumping from a ledge will result in the character's bones being broken due the ledge being too high it will be restricted. He apologizes for that. In cases where if you get stuck in a ditch or something like that by jumping, he tells you to please use the unstuck/return command. So don't be afraid to explore the mechanic.

It's in Reinheart's translation thread if people are interested in reading it.

I'll edit later with the full quote citation when I find it.
Ya, this discussion has moved past that long ago. Now some of us are sorta wondering how they will make it so that it looks smooth and fluid and not off-balanced due to different races jumping the same distances and heights. The rest of us have moved on to talk about galka tails for some reason.
