No, just... no.
As stated above, I will absolutely shun this out of principle if it is implemented. I agree, with a couple posts in the thread...the barding was a great start in the correct direction for the game, and the Gobbue was a keen alternative. But a dodo? seriously?
Anyway, to the Dev Team, here are a few basic simple words and/or phrases that might put things back in perspective...
Chocobo barding? <Good job!>
Chocobo breeding? <Can I have it?>
Wyvern mount? <When can I have it?>
Magitek? <excitement>...<When can I have it?>
Personal or Linkshell Airship? <Impossible to guage>... <End key>
