Riding Chocobos in town?

[Delsus]

Not only ^THIS but wouldn't the addition of rideable chocobos in the cities make them even laggier?

As far as how they would keep them out: Isn't there already a natural zoning area right outside the cities? Simply do what they did in FFXI, have the player automatically dismount at zoning points if they want to continue.

In FFXI it just zoned you back on a chocobo, to dismount while zoning you had to hit the dismount button then zone, if you were still on chocobo it would dismount you while you were zoning
