Idle Animations for Mounts (like the Companions): Do you see it possible?

[Bluevann]

As a RL horse trainer and a general gamer who loves anything that allows exploration on horseback (and other mounts too <3 Drakengard), I find it a little sad that while the chocobos companions do look around when idle, when summoned as mounts they will just look straight, as though they were robots (I'm sorry, Magitek Armor: nothing personal there).

I hope that eventually, when there is less QoL content filling up the To Do board at Squeenix, they will work on giving mounts some animations for when they're idle: looking around, scratching the ground, sniffing the air, ruffling feathers/shaking mane, or chasing bugs away with their tail, or.... erm.... idle magitek thingies.....(I'm sorry again Magitek Armor, I swear it's nothing personal really!)?

I know mount emotes such as roaring or rampaging have been requested already, but I saw nothing about idle demeanors sooo... here it is! I hope to hear some constructive feedback on the idea!

As a player: I would love to see this.

As a Magitek Armor owner: how dare you, sir!

Heeeey now...! I have my Magitek too and love her (I like to think it's a She)! I just am not much versed in magitek thingies to know what a magitek would do when idle >_>;....

i though you were talking about the idle animation of the char standing on a mount as they are just... not moving at all, even when the mount is moving, that is too ugly.
