It's 2019 and we still don't have butt-sliders for our Chocobos.

on the other note i would like cast time for mounts to be removed at least for open world

Do you magically happen to appear in a bike, a car, a bus, or in the subway irl? Nope, you take the bike and sit on it, you open the car and sit on it, you get on the bus and same for the subway. Those are your 1-3 seconds. It's a fantasy game, sure, but what you're asking is like, beyond useless and stupid.

Sign, purely for the ability to mount while moving. Yes, it's like a second of standing still, but those seconds add up.

Probably something to do with ease of running away from enemies and PVP fights..

Running away from enemies is already piss easy with how short their leashes are, and in pvp they will just heavy you anyway.

There's no (good) reason for the delay to still be there.

I would like the cast time for mounts, searching around in MSQ, picking up items, using them, attuning to aetherytes and teleporting to be removed. Since I'm speed running and that's wasting my precious seconds. And don't forget skippable cutscenes, don't give me a loading time for that!

I'd rather have auto-unmount when using any action than have instant cast mounts. Way more annoying.

If you are on PC you can press Z ( unless you changed it ) to get off mount.

Teleport and Return are slightly different though in that they use up resources (Gil for Teleports, and Return has a, what was it, 30 minute cooldown? That's a significant time investment). Mounting a mount costs exactly zero, so being able to cancel it isn't as essential. That said, I personally don't mind the cast time.

It really bothers some for a few second cast timer?
It doesn't for me. Remember you call your mount with a whistle or horn so yeah, animation.
Don't remove it i like it.
