    Wet Cake.. Ewww lol. Fat chocobo underwater

    I don't know if it's possible to have the mount have variations for underwater but right now the fat chocobo looks like:


    And all I can think about is how nasty that cake would be, fat chocobo should be running away from that lol. If anyone has ever had a wet sandwich you know wet bread is just... ... Nope..

    I think if you could put an air bubble around it then it would look nice.

    Also if it's possible to modify the cake wiggle animation to be slower in movement as right now it flails around like it's going through a wind tunnel, makes more sense in a windy/flying area but I'm underwater stationary and it still bounces around XD. There are other fat chocobo mounts too so the air bubble (if possible) being applied across them would be nice.

    Very low priority like the bike; although, I'd ask if there was an order priority to these that the bike is addressed first as it's missing visual and sound and you go over water fairly often in the game. So the lack of effect/sound for the bike feels more like maybe a bug than the chocobo wet cake which just looks a bit upsetting to my stomach (cause wet bread is nasty lol).

    <3 thanks for reading, have a good day

    It is. Check out the Falcon's flying vs underwater configurations.

    I get not going back and adding swimming animations to all the preexisting mounts, but you'd think they'd build all the new SB mounts that way from the start.

    Maybe they'll get around to it if ShB and beyond continues to have Diving as a mechanic. As more underwater content would mean that things like this would be more relevant.

    OH YEAH! That was actually pretty cool. I haven't used the mount in a while because I've got some others I like, but that was/is a great example.

    I would really like to see some more variations to mounts (when transitioning to water), I thought about making more of the post on that but figured it might be asking too much for not a large gain (but I was comfortable talking about the cake nice I believe they already have graphics for the air bubbles so it's not an extreme modification).

    More water variations would be nice . I was thinking jet streams (and tunnels) could be a thing added to many mounts for underwater flair without much extra effort (I see the falcon has streams on it). Or like the bombs on the bomb mount letting off little heat bubbles.

    Thanks for reminding me, indeed there can be underwater variations .

    I would like to see some more stuff underwater, I posted an airship thread and an aside in that was submarine content.. (I know FC have a squadron mechanic but this was physical space based content ideas).

    Soggy foods are a rough eat for me lol. I try everything once so long as it doesn't have a chance to kill me in a single bite but most soggy foods are like... Great I hate it, thanks! lol. (I'll still try it for the first time though).

    Yeah, more underwater stuff would be cool.

    Could be likely too, unless they decide to scrap the Spearfishing concept and thus making all level 60+ Fishing skills pretty much redundant.

    Just a matter of including enough large bodies of water to make it relevant, unless they decide to do something weird like having us be able to swim in non-water fluids such as Lava (Lets see Alisae try and match us with that kind of buff )

    See, I like my food to swim. Plenty of sauce, gravy, custard, cream and whatever other liquids you tend to have on your food.

    But soggy is just gross. So I have to learn to eat things fast before they soak everything up and become ruined

    Though... Yeah, Trifle... I like every single one of the ingredients. Cream is amazing. Custard is literally heaven. Jelly is great. Sponge is neat. It's just all ruined because whatever bass ackwards logic someone had when designing it was all like "Lets put the sponge directly into the liquid jelly. What could possible be gross about that!"
