Riding Chocobos in town?

[giftforce]

It's better than having pointless additions just for the sake of them.
The whole structure of the game is being changed within the next two updates. Unles Square has had the idea of the hulking hens pecking their way through the cities beforehand, It's unlikley they'll restructure it again for such a minor inclution with so little to offer.
They don't have to add every little thing that comes across our minds. Let them finifh the general restructure first, so we can then think about what spesifics would be a helpful adition to the actual gameplay.

All that asside, it seems odd to ride mounts and the like into cities that serve more as an end point rather than a point along a road. Not only that, but these cities really arn't that big. That coupled with the fact that they have one or two restrictive points of entry makes me think that this would be far more trouble than it's worth.

You're stuck in the past... Well actually, even Ultima Online (the first MMO) let you ride horses around town. You're just stuck in FFXI.
