Wow, people are really going nuts over such a small innocent improvement such as jumping.

+1 for me, I am all for adding a jump!

What is the big deal anyway? You don't want to see people jump around? seriously, you need to get over it! You know what's not realistic and really breaks immersion? The fact that everyone in the game is always running everywhere. How about you start to walk everywhere. I mean you wouldn't run everywhere in real life would you? Run to the shop... Run back to the gate, run to the camp, run to the mobs, run to gather run here run there run run.....

A Jump feature like FF13 is not going to happen people - sorry. I certainly hope the DEV team does not have soooo much free time on their hands to walk about the whole land of Eorzea to test and see where it is appropriate to implement an option to pop up for you to have the choice to go over a cliff. Instead of you taking that extra 15 seconds to go around it. They would have to work at this for a long time! I hope they have better things to do.

It's easier, more practical and modern to just let the characters be able to jump. It will most likely happen and then it wont be a big deal. I doubt anyone will quit the game over it and if there is some that do, it will be a very small loss in this case.
