    Mount is overpriced no matter how you try to argue it.

    The carriage is $36 while the whale, which is ALSO a FOUR seat mount, is $30. Pretty sure in terms of modeling the whale would've been more work since it has more moving parts on the mount itself. Chocobo carriage already flies(well hovers off the ground) and the flying chocobo modeling has been in-game since HW.

    I get that inflation is probably driving prices up a tad but it'll get to the point where people can't afford it and then cash shop will be worthless due to it.

    The whale is only a two seater.

    For some that are curious about the description.

    Edit: Uses the chocobo riding music as the mount theme.

    Okay to clarify something here - software development companies are supposed to give their employees 10% of their time each week for a personal project. This is where a lot of Google's experimental stuff came from, and it's where a lot of Square Enix's "free time" projects come from as well.

    Not gonna open the can of worms that is the Japanese work ethic where 12 hour days are the norm, but "free time" in this context means "a task that I was not directed to do by my supervisor."

    It's days like this I'm happy I have hardly any friends in game. There are rarely four of us together out in the open world. >>;

    I'll have to try my luck at hitchhiking..see if I can snag a carriage ride or two.
