I never said we're NOT getting the good stuff later, I'm just wondering what all this talk about them being more than mounts was for if when they finally decide to ACTUALLY PUT THEM IN THE GAME... They're just mounts... LIMITED mounts at that.

Then what's the point? Leave anima as is and keep the Chocobos until they're something worth getting excited for, IMO. As they're putting it now I see myself using them twice to hear the chocobo theme and run around for half an hour, then just go back to anima (whatever anima nerf they do it can't be THAT bad).
