We're getting Ahrimans a drake and Magitek.

God! People need to shut the f*** about the gobbue mounts being a horrible. Deal with it, they are in-game now, you have to look at them, like I have to look at you. Don't like it? Tough Ship!

Love how with this community you mention hating anything about XI, and they jump your ass about how we shouldn't hate it because FFXI was a huge success..

You have that backwards -- Mention FFXI or mention liking it you get told you shouldn't like it and that XIV is a new game and it's a good idea they decided to ruin XIV on original launch instead of using what worked and becoming a better game, you know, like WoW, Rift and SWTOR did.

From what I've seen a good bit of the people suggesting ideas from XI only suggest ideas from XI. It's like they have no gamming experience outside of XI whatsoever, and defend even bad ideas to the death just because they're from XI.

The point of my post was that an idea should not be instantly deemed good or bad because of the game that it's from, but instead it should be judged on the functionality itself. It's idiotic to instantly write off something for no other reason than disliking the game it came from whether it be XI or WoW.

Careful... I hear logic gets you banned. :O

it'd be cool if magitek consumed fuel as to not have everyone in vanadiel (oh right, eorza) be ridding them all the time. could make them speedier too then.

I can assure you I won't be riding mine all the time since I'll have my goobue and hopefully drake/ahriman to switch it out with.

Drake/ahriman aren't for certain I think; the shown animations were kind of a tech demo for trying out different mounts I believe. Could still happen but may not be until well after 2.0. Food for thought.

The future of FF14 is going to be heavily instanced. No one is even going to be seeing mounts much anyway(unless... you're a gatherer? lulz).

I find, in many MMOs, the mass plethora of mounts, showing them off, & collecting them, ridiculous. That's not for me, but it's still a good thing & I'm glad they do this.

IDK, there are just too many real issues to be worried about to even let something this miniscule even entertain the thought.

Concepts from a game with 200k players > concepts from a game with 10 million.

there is so much wrong with this statement. I would launch a wall of rage text but I
just don't have it in me.

I don't like WoW. it does not appeal to me. at least wow elements in this game look
better then the cartoon blobs in wow. I love the Final Fantasy series. have played
every game. I have never had the desire to ride the Beast in the games as a horse.
when they said more mounts to come I was really hoping for the tanaka vision of player
made Boat, Ships, and Airships. Also to have those coaches, like the one siting at the ferry
dock to be implemented. Any one of those seem far more interesting then riding a Goobue.
it does the same thing as the chocobo and is 10x more obnoxious. The only thing that
I agree on with this whole thing is not needing GC quests finished to get them. However since it's
just a matter of speaking to a NPC to get it should have been far slow mode of transportation then
rented Chocobos. it's nothing more then a vanity ride and should have been more fitting of the actual
mobs in the game.

Just on a vanity stand point they should have choose Dodos. It would have been far funnier. Like a poor mans
Chocobo.

Thoroughly enjoying the amount of rage this addition has caused, as I've said in other posts.

Square, if you're listening, please please please add the Hardy Daytona. And just flat out give it away with an NPC in Ul'dah. No gil required. The resulting forum drama will make it well worth the effort... DON'T DISAPPOINT ME.
