New aethernets in Doman Enclave too close to the Aetheryte

[Fynlar]

Don't care about the aethernet placements, but the warp out to southwest Yanxia is nice, considering both of Yanxia's teleports are in the northeast.

It's not like Mounts are permitted in any other location with an Aethernet (except Idyllshire - and they should remove them from there too, in my opinion).

Forgot Rhalgr's Reach.

I like my mounts more than you like your "immersion", tbh. Yes, I've quantified it and checked.

You can also use mounts in Rhalgr's Reach as well, so possibly going forward SE might do the exact same thing again in the next expac for the end-game area so I feel they are here to stay. It's better to have two forms of transportation rather than having to pick between them.

Fair. Still, it was something I noticed, and immediately disliked. I think it would be less of an issue for me personally if the Mount varieties weren't so absurd, but as-is, it's obnoxious.

I did, and we'll agree to disagree. As stated above, I have less of an issue with Mounts as a concept, and more of an issue with the utterly ridiculous options SE has chosen to include in XIV. In the open world, it's less noticeable, because the areas are so vast you typically don't see other players using them all the time. In towns, though, it's blatantly obvious.

More broadly, it would be nice if SE included user-specific toggles that permitted the best of both worlds: let people disable other people's Glamours, and let them view all mounts as standard Chocobos.

Two arguments against disabling glamours:

Firstly there is a lot of gear that I'd never want my character to visibly wear, and if people were able to switch off glamours then I'd be avoiding wearing them. (eg. those 'lovely' harness/subligar sets back in ARR, which are given by multiple dungeons as aetherial gear.) I started playing before they lowered the "glamour permission" level from 50 to 15, and I'd rather be deliberately undergeared than seen wearing that. Once I could use glamours, it was no longer a concern and I could make use of the gear.

Secondly, more broadly - unless people have a whole set of matching gear, they tend to look awful with glamours removed. Since they added the "apply glamour dispellers" screen (which shows your character in all their current actual gear) to the glamour plates menu, any time I tab from plate 1 to plate 10 I pass over that screen, and it invariably looks disastrous. Having everyone look like that would be far more immersion-breaking than the occasional "interesting" costume choice.
