Wing Mounts

[reivaxe]

Always felt that wol flight would be rhe natural progression to mounts.
Like, I was talking to a friend a few months ago and we talked about the idea of your character covering themselves in different colors and forms of aether as new "primal mounts" and legit flying around like dbz characters.

No thanks.

Would be cool to have some wing like mounts, or even a jet-pack or rocket boots.

During the fanfest, QandA I think it was, Yoshida made a joke about ripping the wings off of pixies and putting them on your back to make a mount out of them.

They didn't say anything about ripping wings off pixies. Just that wings might be a possible mount.

If the Pixies turn out to be the second coming of the Moogles, I'm for it. (The ripping their wings off bit, I mean).

In all seriousness though, rather than some gaudy looking wings keeping us afloat, if we're talking minimally assisted flight, I'd be more inclined to look to something like a jetpack.
Or just the ability to outright fly. The WoL is more or less already Superman, without the flying part.

I love how adding wings of any kind automatically draw comparisons to a ftp Korean mmo. Some people are just 0 fun.

Bikini tanks, cat girls, bunny suits, etc. are A-OK, but if we're talking BACK WINGS that's just taking it too far, my dude. Or something.

If it happens... First thing I think about when Male Roe or Male Highlander will do...

They didn't say it. Yoshida did did the motions of ripping wings of the back of Koji and sticking them on himself. Sorry if by "made a joke" I inferred they vocally said something. It was just motions. Still a joke to me tho.

It's a dangerous thing though, when you're relaying new information about "what was said" at a presentation that not everyone has seen for themselves.

A few people in the thread have clearly taken you at your word and thought that's directly what they said - which is how rumours start when they go to their friends and say "Yoshida suggested we'll get to rip the wings off pixies!"

This would be a very cool and unique mount, I think it'd be fantastic. I hope they go through with it.
