And in 1.20b we'll have...

LOL @ This thread. "Don't add so many mounts like other games" "Yay thanks for adding more mounts!"....... SE is so screwed if they listen to what everyone says here. Guess they just randomly choose who to listen to and who not to for ideas. *Btw I am a mount supporter*

You gotta understand this is the battered housewife club that has been mentally abused by years of only playing XI. All they want is XI again and if anything is outside the box of where XI was it's unacceptable for them. Funny this is that SE seems to be trying to move on but they cant.

This "defense" is honestly very flawed and not very accurate at all......

I dont want FFXI again, but it is still a good idea to take the things that where good from one and bring into the other.
FFXIV would have started off a lot better, if they took FFXI and used it as a base for FFXIV, then pored in the FFXIV filling, instead of trying to make it as different as possible.

We don't need 20+ mounts, we need a chocobo breeding system, and little customization with them equipment wise, and thats all.
Maybe bring back the racing and improve on it, and more chocobo games to play with others.

Wow, really?

Wow, really?

Yes really, no one enjoyed FFXI, as Cichy basically stated!

I liked the part where they said because I'm in the group dislikes this daft 'mob mounts' idea, I'm crippled by years of playing Final Fantasy XI. My whole experience with that game was two occasions thinking how nice it'd be to get involved with such an amazing-looking world, only to be completely put off by how utterly, utterly limited the character creation was.

My whole experience with that game was two times thinking how nice it'd be to get involved with such an amazing looking world then getting turned off by how utterly, utterly limited the character creation was.

Yeah...that's basically how it works -- If you dislike something it's because you liked Final Fantasy XI in some way most likely, you'll notice that with people who hated the MMO.

We all know they're throwing this in because it's the "thanks for playing during 1.x" that Yoshida stated on his live letter, yet somehow people aren't allowed to dislike something.

My point wasnt that no one enjoyed it. I played XI for 6 years personally and had alot of fun. The point is that in XI SE attitude was that they were always right and we were always wrong. Therefore, whatever was in XI was done correctly and it can be never surpassed or deviated from.

The Exact same thing happened to me Fen. Clearly any idea in your head that isn't generated from the part of the brain that LOVES FFXIV is contrary to everything the community stands for. Do I like these mounts? I do not. Can I live with them? Of course. I have a harder time living with the current linkshell state in this game than I will watching these fat retarded things hobble around my server.

Anything I have to say in this thread is pretty much already covered in my signature. But, in case anything happens to it, I fully support monster mounts, and I am looking forward to seeing more in the future!

Personally, I greatly dislike the idea of mounts as a whole. Never liked em in any MMO. That being said, if we are going to have them, I want all kinds, and to me, the bigger, meaner, uglier, and faster, the better.
