I DO agree on one point though. The menu's and such for retainers and whatnot is RIDICULOUS! I'm so tired of clicking my way through the damn menus and putting things away. It takes 5 clicks just to rent a chocobo porter. 1 or 2 of which are chat box skippers. Totally worthless clicks.

Forced dismount to talk to an NPC is great! Otherwise there would be a bunch of jerk offs standing on top of NPC's just for the hell of it.
they could do the same thing just standing there with the mount without talking to the NPC. there will always be jerks around.
