    I don't see how the franchise can stagnate by making the iconic chocobo that everyone loves the only mount.

    Innovation and progress builds on a well established base. That base is the lore of FF and need not to be changed to grow.
    becasuse your wrong.
    magitek mounts only existed in 1 out of 14 games and all of its spin off games if i just read correctly (reading up on it now).

    sure chocobos are the only animal mount i was able to freely ride on, but Shoopuffs are a perfect example that Chocobos are not the only animals bred to be mounts whatsoever in the franchise.
    if you want to talk about consistancy then why not the entire aesthetic of the game? XI and XIV are two games out of 14 that look nothing like the rest of the entire franchise.

    i absolutely agree though that flying mobs and Gobbues should not at all be mounts, they just dont make much sense. Gobbues are clunky bipeds, since when would that make a suitable mount?

    Hey now, everyone is entitled to their own opinions.
    Though, I kinda agree with you. Chocobos aren't the only mounts in FF. Magitech could work but I don't think it fits in the current world we are in. Maybe after 2.0. We will have to see.

    yeah im not trying to go against any opinions, im just stating what i know to be fact in the FF universe.

    when i first saw that vid i was extatic that we were gonna have other animal mounts. but then i saw the amount of them and which ones they were.
    that right there is when things start to get a little generic and diluted and starts to loose identity in my opinion.

    Yoshi really throws my off some times. hes totally against gender rerolls at 2.0 because its lol "too shocking" to him yet it makes perfect sense to tame and ride bat winged heads and clunky bipeds? thats some major inconsistant thinking in my opinion.
