Chocobo companion and Duty Finder

[Kio]

Am I reading this correctly? Does this mean the companion mount will no longer work with Mount Roulette? And that to even ride it I would first need to use a Green, summon him, then mount him?

Meaning if you summon your GC chocobo with a gyshal green, while that is in effect you won't be allowed to call your Unicorn mount to ride. But you will be able to call your same GC chocobo as a mount. If you would want to ride a different mount you would have to use withdraw first. Also, if your GC chocobo is not currently summoned as a companion you'd be able to ride it as a mount as usual.

It's worded a bit confusing, it took me a second look to understand. They probably made it this way for immersion. Most people wouldn't walk their horse by the reigns then jump on a bicycle and ride off leaving the horse to it's own whits to catch up to you later. So it makes sense from a RP standpoint.

That would be a seriously eyeroll-inducing reason. A a roleplayer, I value freedom and streamlined gameplay more than immersion for most game mechanic stuff. I'll never understand why people think "immersion" is such a fragile thing.

That whole realism excuse is lame. Yes cause firing fireballs from your hands is realistic,fighting a bunny with a Great Axe or Riding an eyeball with wings list goes on. Yes it is a RP game but it is also a FANTASY game.
