Wait, really? Is it 1992?

Because people don't naturally possess the ability to jump a few inches. Ivhaaaate that.

To be honest I think the game's going to be dog dick. /shrugs

Because it wpuld ellicit a delicious emotional response from fans.

Case in point.

It does suck that the jumping for no reason is gone but....is it a game breaker? Do people feel the need to jump up and down for no reason? You will still be jumping when you are contextually obligated. The only thing that is really being removed is jumping for no random reason. Maybe its important to some but I don't think its that big a deal.

It's not a deal breaker for me. It's just the fact that in this day and age, adding a simple jump mechanic to any game is simple. And in games like Thief or or action rpgs or other games of that nature, being able to jump would help, and makes sense. I don't expect to see somebody hopping around in a boxing game. But the world's greatest thief should be able to at least leave the ground a bit.

I can understand people being upset but I don't think it would really help the gameplay. If they added it then yes they could have probably added some elements like rooftop runs and jumping over fences or something to that nature but maybe we will still have that. Like I said we will still be jumping when we "have to".

Imo it could help increase gameplay. Like you could make a long jump to get to an alternate route, or jump onto a ladder to get some extra height before you start climbing, etc, etc... But I understand where you're coming from because from what we've seen already not having a standalone jump mechanic won't take away from anything.

You're under the impression that the developers are smart enough to allow a jump prompt in literally every place where it would be feasible.

They're not.

Also Garrett's new design is one of the shittiest I've ever seen.

No jump? That does kill it for me a bit. Not enough to not buy, but that is a pretty massive bummer.

Your shit.

I'm sorry for not liking emo Linkin Park edgemasters wearing make-up.

First of all which picture of him do you dislike

i've only seen one and he looks decent enough.

I agree. What I have seen he looks fine.

Which looks better?

The person who looks like a nondescript thug or the dude in bondage gear and mascara?

What does it matter? The game is in first person. You will never see the character model.
