Or just let us fly ourselves.

And let us fly ourselves.

Fixed that for you.

I knew I was forgetting something. Eorzea needs flying Roegadyn! Just look out when they come in to land...

No, or. Why bother making everything fly and waste developer resources when you can just have the player fly and call it a day?

Because lawl so random is tons easier to appeal to. Just look at how Payday 2 turned out.

Because people might still prefer riding a flying popoto over flying themselves, just like they prefer flying on a tortoise over a chocobo.

As if the game wasn't homogenized enough.

When in-game references and the game's lore references flying tortoises because of just the tortoises' shells being made of wind crystal, it is not "lawl so random".

It is not "lawl so random" when it references popular Japanese culture (Re: Kaiju and Tokusatsu movies).

Still pretty random if ya ask me

Random would be if it referenced nothing at all and was done just for the hell of it. Given that this a very obvious pop culture reference, and one that a LOT of players have been jokingly asking for it is very much NOT random.
