I'm not too sold on the comfort-aspect though.

Call me old fashioned but mounts aside from chocobos just seem wrong to me in Final Fantasy.

Owch, I hope that's not bareback!

i cant believe how many people want to ride everything that exists just because they could. and jumping too for that matter. just go play world of warcraft for that. i personally hate these 2 additions they announced for the game

You guys can preach tradition or whatever, but FF & SE have lost their way post 2000 and hasn't really been the same since. We should be able to tame, ride, raise & level up various fauna that we and our friends can ride.

Maybe some people want to ride a shoopuff or a motorcycle?


As long as it's not ridiculous & catering to retarded herp-derp humor then it'll be fine.

I'm personally for things that can logically be ridden. Flying mounts pose various gameplay problems so that's probably out. Ridiculous things like cactuar are obviously out too. If it's just chocobos I'm fine with that but since they've said they're looking at other things to, I'm just trying to be positive and embrace their decision. It's not the end of the world.

Anyone shouting for tradition clearly doesn't realize that Final Fantasy is constantly changing from game to game as well. Tradition had to have been change at one point. New classes, new mechanics, new vehicles/mounts from other FFs, a lot has been added since the first FF.

There are always a few key things that they all have to make FF a FF though.

Chocobos
Moogles
Cid
Biggs/Wedge

"A few other niggles"

Point being is that there has never been a mount outside of Chocobos that is rideable in the Final Fantasy series to this point. It was pretty much the mainstay rideable animal for the entire Final Fantasy mythos.

But now people are just begging "Litteraly" for SE to open a cash shop for mounts much like WoW. Want to ride a Black doomsday dragon of doom? Give me 10 bucks.

Sure, Magitek armor is cool, but does it belong in this game? I just can't see it...

[Leonesaurus]

Raptors! They're pretty much featherless chocobos! XD I would love to mount a raptor and ride around coerthas on that little speed demon. If you demount in this game, it would be cool if the mount did not disappear but instead followed you around, like a creature, wyvern, puppet, or summon would to its master in FF XI.

Chocobos are my fav, and I would love to see a variety of them in different sizes, color, armor and armor color/designs. I would also like to see new creatures created and brought into the world of Eorzea to fight and mount. But raptors would be my second fav!

On second thought, I think raptors and most all other creatures out there in the wild would be much more fun to charm and have fight along side you as a "pet", more so than a mount, but I will certainly 100% take both if possible! =P
