Make all mounts into Companions

[Miya_Carbuncle]

If the mounts can become companion like chocobo aka being able to tank, heal or dps, then this will bring the wrath of the anti-p2w club on SE. I think this will only work if they exclude the mounts from cash shop and only make mounts obtainable from the game into companions.

Which is a shame, since I love Sleipnir, its my favourite mount and would make a awsome battle companion, but I can understand why some players would not like this.

Uh, why? How in the world is it P2W if paid for mounts are exactly the same as your free chocobo in terms of skills? If you can get the same skills for free and it's not even hard to get a companion chocobo, I really don't understand why it'd be a problem.

Plus you can't even use any other mounts until you've unlocked your GC chocobo.
