So let's talk mounts.

Personally I really want a motorcycle mount. I'd love to suggest Fenrir from the FF7:AC movie, and I know the players exist somewhere who would agree; however I'm also aware of the opinions of the individuals who stand on two sides, at least, that oppose the idea. Those would the ones who argue that it doesn't make sense or fit with the lore, and the ones who roll their eyes while thinking "Oh great, another gas bag whining about the mounts he wants." And I say poo on the latter. As for the former, we all get to run around in giant mechanical raptors, fly on ceruleum-powered airships, and...........like every other thing the garleans have sitting in their everloving backyards. It fits with the lore just fine, they just need to find a place for it. I think it has potential as a fun and unique mount regardless of the design model (though I totally pray for Fenrir).....so, what do you guys think?

LOL.... yes, totally love the bomb bench, still working on getting it though.

I agree with a motorcycle mount, but definitely not any of the ones out of FF7. Give a airship a set of wheels, shape it like a motorcycle and give it the possibillity to fly or just ride around on the ground.

no more Advent Children stuff please.

This is a great idea for future content.

I would love to play the FF7 Motorcycle game in FFXIV. It fits into the lore just fine, if the story ever takes us into dangerous Garlean territory (deep behind enemy lines). That would be so cool to steal one of their motorcycles to escape and be chased down a Garlean Highway! I've always asked for a Magitek Research Facility. Perhaps they can write a story arc where we infiltrate one in Garlemald, but the entry is a one way ticket, and then we must fight our way out and use a new Magitek prototype motorcycle to escape! Then we can be given the item for the mount as a quest reward to keep the motorcycle permanently, maybe even a side quest after having the bike get fixed up (BRING BACK JESSIE FROM THE IRONWORKS, SHE IS MYSTERIOUSLY ABSENT FROM HEAVENSWARD). Awesome!

Motorcycles need to show up in the story before they make them into mounts. We'll probably see some kind of Garlean scout craft in the future that operates like a motorcycle, and then we'll get Cid to make us a mock-up so we can chase them down. That would be a pretty good lead into a motorcycle mini-game with a replayable version added to the Gold Saucer. Default motorcycle awarded for story completion, and special variants added to Gold Saucer exchange for MGP. Only question is which expansion this will be an inevitable part of.

Hmm... Now you've got me thinking of Cindy from FFXV. Think Cid has a hot sister back home who tinkers with automotives?

Things like this need to be able to fit into Eorzea and not be added for the sake of adding them. I would like this if it was a Garlean magitek motorcycle but we would need to actually see them in the story as well.

I really want an Omega Weapon mount!!!

Basically the following but the chest piece is open and your character would stand inside it almost like its wielding the suit rather than riding it.
