    Has a dev responded in regards to mount animations?

    Some of the mount animations are way out of sync in relation to the character movements - in motion and idle. The drake mount and the mount you obtain from the Sahagin dailies are the most obvious ones. Not a huge deal, but I feel that it's so obvious and it makes me not want to buy them....as cool as they may look.

    No developer posts on this so far, if you can find some examples (In video or HQ GIF form) it'd help.

    What I'd like to see is an actual animation for hopping onto your Chocobo.

    If not for all Mounts, your Chocobo Companion at the very least.

    Lalafell could hop up their side, grabbing a tuft & yanking up.

    Roeg could leap & plop down on the saddle.

    H'yur could do the cowboy leap-up.

    Etc.

    I'll see if I can create a gif later on and post it. But if you want to see what I mean before I get a chance to, look at somebody mounted on a drake of the sahagin mount. You'll notice that the character sway and mount sway are way out of sync.

    What came to my mind for Lala was the bird leaning its head down under the Lala and flipping it up, so the Lala flips/tumbles down onto the bird's back.

    I think they just need to make us move along with the mount...we look too static when on them (of course non chocobo mounts).
