I think Chocobos should be the staple mount, but I don't see what is wrong with maybe a few others. But I would be happy with just chocobos anyway, as long as there is a diverse array of sub-species within the chocobo genus. For example, in FFXIII there were the Coccoon Chocobos and then there was the Gran Pulse Chocobos. They were two separate and distinctive breeds. Something like that in FFXIV would be cool.

Different beaks, different sizes, different coats/feathers, different muscle tone, claws, facial features, wings. And then further ability to customise the mount with a variety of armour would be cool.

I don't think anyone would begrudge an MMO for only having Chocobos if there was such a huge diversity of chocobos available.
