Does the Gobbue have it's own BGM?
ちょうど海外フォーラムでもオリジナルの曲なの？というコメントが寄せられていたところでした。皆さん気になるところは一緒でしたね。さっそく確認したところ、「サウンドチームで作曲したオリジナル曲です」ということでした。
The foreign side of the forum also just asked if they will have their own original music, so everyone is wondering about same thing, I checked in on this one and it will indeed be a new original music made by the sound team.

広大な草原に佇むデッカイ灰色の巨体。
凶暴って思われがちだけど、ただ単に力が強すぎて不器用なヤツ。
って感じじゃないですかね？グゥーブーって。
あくまで個人的に思っただけですケド！
そんな憎めないデカイやつと共に
広い荒野を疾走するプレイヤーのイメージって感じです。
（疾走感といってもチョコボの疾走感とは全く違います）
A large gray body living in a large plain field, everyone thinks he's dangerous but actually he's just too powerful and clumsy... isn't that what Gobbues are like?
That's just my personal view!
Players image is is like running full speed through the large field (when saying full speed it's much different from Chocobo's feel)

一番強いイメージは
“夕焼けに染まった草原に立ちつくす
優しく力強いグゥーブーの「背中」”
です！
Strongest image is "Kind and strong Gobbue's back standing in a plain while the sun is setting"!
また、グゥーブー騎乗中のBGMのイメージについて、サウンドチームの祖堅からコメントをもらってきました。
Also received the following comment from Souken from the sound team.

さてはて、このイメージからどんな曲が出来上がったのか……？大変気になりますね！
先日のスクリーンショットに続いて動画でもご紹介できるよう素材の準備を進めているところですので、もう少々期待に胸ふくらませておいていただけると幸いです。
Wonder what kind of music came up from this image!
We're preparing a movie so give us little more time.

Does this mean that gobbues will be much slower than chocobos?

If so, what advantage does the gobbue have over the chocobo?

Will it have a stoneskin effect on us since we are so high up that it will take the damage for us for a bit? Or will it have the ability to not be "lamed" like the chocobo mount?

[Tempast]

I'm sure they wont be slower, it may appear to be moving slower since their strides may be bigger than that of a chocobo.

[Nikita]

I think that "Much different from chocobo feel" means that since it is so large, it won't appear to be running as fast, but it will be the same speed.

Possibly.

[Rokien]

I hope they are soo slow, nobody will ride em >

[SnickleWhiskers]

The only difference I think there should be is those that don't have their licensed chocobo should have their goobue go as fast as a rented, and anyone that does have their license goobue should have the same movement speed as a choco but obvious visually looks slower because of its size.

On a side note, I thought this thread would be asking which would win in a fight...

Goobbue!

Goobbue!

If it were Boco from Final Fantasy Tatics, I'd have to say chocobos.

[Nikita]

I can just see a goobbue picking up a chocobo by its leg and dropping it into its mouth, especially a lala's chocobo...

[KiriA500]

I hope they are soo slow, nobody will ride em >

Once I have it, it's all I'm going to ride. I don't care if it's the same speed as running on foot!

Same here, George and I will be the bestest friends ever!
