Chocobo Trailer!

[EmeraldHill]

woooo! beer! ahem, fanpeople are excited because we know what chocobos mean, just because you lack the mentality to know what it means imply means you dont know. Simply ask, why are people excited about chocobos? and we will reply "BECAUSE WE DONT HAVE TO RUN ALL OVER THE PLACE NOW" i mean, thats why I'm excited. /mmhmm

Duh.

The trailer still sucked. I'm not one of those rabid chocobo fanboys. Am I happy chocobos are coming? Hell yes. That doesn't mean the trailer was good.

Would you have rather had over-the-top flashy cut-scenes? The trailer did what it needed to do—show real-time footage of the chocobo being used in game.

A back-story would be nice. Anything would be better than just them running through the desert. Hell, they didn't even change towns or birds, all it was was Ul'dah and Ul'dah birds.

Eh, no
It was Ul'dah with Gridania birds.

Go play Lineage II then? Also what backstory? Chocobos don't need a backstory in this game. It made sense in FFXI, especially with the Chocobo Raising segments. All Chocobos run the same (based on race) it would be pointless to show a chocobo running through each region as it's the same mechanic.

They get you somewhere faster.

Why would I go play it? That's a pretty irrelevant thing to say.

And because the trailer is real boring with just the desert being shown? A little effort would be nice, as there was about none at all taken.

You're wrong. Check the video again, you'll see two Dodos. And not only those.

Good god, who cares where the video was shot!? The whole point of it is to show the difference in speed between a rental and a personal chocobo. They don't need to show it in all the regions, it's the same thing. I'll see them in different backgrounds when I play the patch myself.

Well you see, some people around here like to play vicariously through this forum. Those people don't always log in to the game, nor will they get to experience it properly because of this. I bet they haven't even seen the orange puddings in the game.
