Colored Chocobo? Instead of monster mounts?

[Reliquia]

I am way more for colored chocobos than the possible suggested mobs (I find it funny how we Yoshi said that we can't summon the primals because they are supposed to be feared, but having a huge wyvern mount is somehow a plausible idea).

Customizable and unique chocobos I am all for, both when it comes to color and armor, even when it comes to chocobos being ready for battle. But having an x amount of players riding the most ridiculous mounts I am however for.

This is serious.... how is Donkey Knight not relevant to the game?

Seems donkey knight was too good.

No!

I want my Goobbue or Coblyn mount!

I really dig the idea of personal mob mounts. Especially if they get extended into the mount battle buddy system.

You can have your colored chocobo. Manfred the Goobue and i will be over there wrecking shop. Of course if they are callable in battle i can see some difficulty in getting one.

Appealing to the FF fans is what is needed ~ Not copy/pasting other mmos.

FF fan for 15 years and I love monster mounts.

lol, are you trying to equate a primal such as Ifrit with a drake? Not even CLOSE to the same thing...

In any case, colored chocobos have already been confirmed to be in the planning stages by Yoshi in recent interviews. So if players want those you have nothing to worry about.

Chuki : Dark thing, huh. Next, about raising chocobos, will we be able to have coloured chocobos with special abilities? For example, maybe a Red Chocobo casting fire spells? Something like that.

Naoki Yoshida : The colour variation is definitely important, it’s like how the Chocobo can have his own identity, but I’m not quite sure if that should be equal to the skillset, because if you have one colour, it automatically relates to a skillset. That’s really going to limit the identity of the Chocobo. We are going to make sure that when you are raising your Chocobo, you can sort of change the direction of the Chocobo, if it’s going to be more like a Healing Chocobo, more like a Fighting Chocobo or magic-related Chocobo. These are going to be the directions you can select when you are raising a Chocobo.

About the colours, for example, Black, Blue or Red, there’s a lot of important meaning behind that, considering the long history of Final Fantasy. We’re still thinking how we should bring these colours into the game and how special we want it to be when we bring the coloured Chocobos in the game.

For example, Black Chocobo, you have that image that is really strong, so maybe we should keep it as a rare colour. As a MMO, I think it’s really important to keep a Mount System related to that achievement system, so maybe we can keep these special colours for the achievements. We are really thinking carefully about how we want to introduce these different colours to the game.
