Yes, because "just magic" is context, the physics of the bike isn't contradictory to the lore, it is contradictory to game design, you are mixing up what it is that doesn't make sense. I can give myself the suspension of disbelief of a tiger flying so long as I am given context and suitable animations, but if I am given no context and the tiger just no-clips its way through the world, that is extremely poor implementation. The problem with the bike is that it presents contextual challenges within the movement design, and that has nothing to do with lore or context within the world.

You say this is a fantasy game, but it still needs to stick to its own rules regarding physics (which in this case is close to real world)

Here's another reminder -

Anyone not wanting this needs to seek out psychological help asap. lol

I don't like the bike. I'm probably not going to get it if it was available. Heck I'll probably cringe every time I see it in game.
I don't see any valid reason why the devs couldn't implement it once they're satisfied with it.
We already have plenty of mounts that are as "immersion breaking" as the bike, if not worse.

Still waiting for my chance to get the flying cloud as a EU player so I don't see why you folks can't have your bike.

That's a pretty nasty way to ask for it.

in what sense? I was just talking about the FF7 bike with my friend the other day.

You amateurs.

I want THIS Mount:

Four-seater. This is a thing.

This is actually not all that bad of an idea if you think about it. FC's should have a mount they can customize (colors, decals, shape, mods, etc) and use at a certain rank freely. The mount can be created through the workshop. Doesn't necessarily have to be the regalia but the overall concept and look of the vehicle could be drawn off it. I actually have 3 friends I play with regularly and this would be bangin to cruise around in and chat while only 1 person has to do the movements. Be even cooler if passengers could change positions on the vehicle and whatnot but that might be asking too much.

Would be nice if we could use our airships. Customizable, multi-person, created in the workshop.

I am kinda fine with a FF14 looking motor bike but please no car. Maybe make a four seater airship that is not enabled in cities because it would probably be too big. Or maybe a big chocobo carriage. At least those still kinda look like they would fit Eorzea and would be able to move on the ground.

Heck even that awful Yokai mount is hovering over the ground because there are barely any tracks to travel on.
