    Unfortunately its one part of the lore that sorta has to be broken for it to work within a MMO. It's a little unfair to prevent people from having their favorite colors. Or, basically throws the entire breeding system out the window if everyone only will ever use, say, a gold chocobo. What can be done though is make it so that certain colors are natively more dispositioned for a certain task, but not enough that would prevent someone from using it over a different color. For instance, blue chocobo could have movement speed +1 over water tiles.

    Personally though, I thought that having colors be purely aesthetic worked just fine in XI.

    I dont understand why you cant use both , colored chocos and mob mounts sounds like fun. Isn't that what this game is about?
