The owned chocobos are faster? Where did they say that? Sounds good and gives the players the motivation to do whatever we're required to do to unlock that.

They showed it subtlely. Check vid they show the rental npc and choco and it slow. Then they show the whistle animation and then fast chocos. SE and their subliminal messages. :(

The movie has rental chocobo music. Personal choco has different music.

Yay, finally my own chicken!

And of course, complaints about the animations. They'll never get anything done if people keep nitpicking everything apart.

Nah, it's more like "It'd be cool if..." so take it as a suggestion =)

I think they should of put the animation in! Who cares if we would have to wait even longer for 1.19 which people are eagerly waiting for it's release.

Very nice video, it is good to see that chocobos are very fast and look worthwhile to use over spamming anima. Looks like personal chocobos are faster than rentals.

Omgawdddd. I'm SO excited about this! I need my chocobos! :D And it definitely does look like the rental one is a little slower than the personal chocobo which is fine. I just hope the personal chocobo isn't going to be some long drawn-out, time-consuming quest... And I also hope it's soloable. :3

I don't mind that it has no animation, although... that would be something cool to add later. =)

I also hope the personal chocobo isn't drawn out like it was in XI... that was horrid when they introduced it, awesome but so horrid. People exploited the market on the food's at outrageous prices on top of the fact it too 30 days to actually get the full adult version... (No Thanks!) lol

Exploitation will happen even more in XIV than it did in XI, it was only "exploiting" In XI because gil was worth something in that game. You also forgot to mention the only reason to raise a personal chocobo was for a colored one and Racing (much like in FFVII) so of course it took actual days in an MMO setting. It was drawn out but in the end it was something you raised.

XIV is aiming to be the most casual and easy going MMO to be released, I highly doubt it would take more than a day if that for a personal chocobo, so have no worries.
