Cant talk to Npc while on mount??

This make it very inconvient... Please some how make it so that u can speak to npc while mounting. It is very tiresome to get off my mount, talk, get on, run some distance, get off, and do it all over.

This would improve game play if implemented i reckon.

Why not just get off the mount? It's only a single click.
It's not like the mount has a CDT slapped on it.

Does it hurt when you have to dismount?
is that second of time life or death for you?
Will the world suddenly implode because you can't talk to an npc which gives you info/items/gils/cutscenes?
No?
Didn't think so.

Pretty sure the devs have more important things to be thinking about than dealing with laziness atm.

It may be inconvenient, but please be realistic.
There is only so much babying this game can do.
Just press the button.

Btw, you could have mounted and dismounted 60+ times in the time it took you to load the page and complain about it :')

I don't mind having to mount back up but I'm on PS3 so it involves a painful .5sec to switch bars. :P

You deserve a cookie, Sir.
Would be a good compromise to shut up the whining at least.
But, still pretty sure it can wait til the games running smoothly.

Slow down, it's not a race.

i think its cuz some trigger cutscenes and if u were on a mount it would mess it up.. but yea its just a little click np really

It'd make stuff a tiny bit easier

It doesn't even take a full second to dismount your mount and maybe a second to remount. wheres the fire?! >_>

I mean sure, i still enjoy the game. But it would be even better if u can just talk while on ur mount and then just walk away as soon as it finish. Rather than the repeatative steps u have to go through.

Well a previous post brought up a good point. For a lot of NPCs it triggers a cutscene that being mounted could cause interference with.

Not a race... lol. Game already has like about 10 lvl 50. Thats all they know how to do is sprint to the finish line. Then they will complain there is no end game content. Typical

Auto-dismount is what I'd like to see. It's a small QoL thing that I'm sure didn't even cross anyone's mind, but it would be a good thing to implement when the higher priority fixes are done.

is not polite to talk while in chocoback, or mount. its like talking down on someone... :P

I suggest you go and play Rift, WOW, etc. which allow you to talk to NPCs etc still mounted and see how jerks enjoy putting their mounts on top of NPCs to make interacting with them hard or impossible.

SE have it right!

specially tauren with the mammoth mount lol

I'd like it to auto dismount me. Having to manually do it doesn't make the game more interesting or engaging, it's just 'the way it *currently is'.

Its not a big deal, but it would be an 'oh, nice' type of addition.

Lol.. really? Basically you want to remain perma on your mount to do everything for the added speed.

Really?

You know in the time it took you to come here, start this thread type it out and post it, you could have pressed the button to get off and on your chocobo about 300 times.

Its not inconvenient, and there is nothing wrong with the way it is set up. Sounds more like laziness.

Next ask for SE to level up your character.

Imagine trying to find the npc if everyone was on mounts, wouldn't be easy

Nothing stopping people from just standing there with their chocobo on top of an NPC just to be jerks. You're the one that needs to talk to the NPC, not them after all.
Apologists praising poor game design is very amusing. Its like SWtOR forums all over again.
