Arion Mount Wings Are Too Small.

[NotHereToComplainBut]

Hello, I am writing this post to express an opinion that I feel many others share and that I think Square Enix could easily do something about that people in the community would greatly (or mildly) appreciate.

I am, like many others, one of the people who bought the Collector's edition of Endwalker because let's face it I like spending money on this game and after seeing the promo footage of the mount I know I needed to get the Collector's edition.

During the promos I did notice that the wings were kind of small compared to the body but I assumed that may just be a trick of the camera. But now that I am in-game with the mount the disappointment is quite real.

Here we have one of the most beautiful looking mounts in the game, and tacked on are what appear to be pigeon wings...

I've included some screenshots of the wings in comparison to GARO collection wings, the Pegasus mount, and a Lanner for reference.

Please if you feel the way I do about this mount, let your voices be heard and hopefully Square Enix will be nice enough to make a change.

The wings are definitely too small to sustain flight, sadly neither Square-Enix nor the players give a damn about logic.

Yet nothing said about a fat flying chocobo or a flying whale lol

I agree. It would be a good change.

And the flying chairs, beds, elephants, bears, sheep, cats... it's a big list of things that shouldn't be allowed in the sky. I can't say I'm overly fussed about small wings on a flying horse. :X

Well my argument isn't based on logic or physics its purely about what would be the most aesthetically pleasing and the larger wings just clearly look better on the flying horse mounts. Mount's have themes and while a fat flying chocobo with tiny wings is great for its own comedic value, putting pigeon wings on a pegasus-style mount with a more serious theme doesn't really fit the look.

bumblebees dont much care for logic either

The mount has the wings, they just don't have the flight feathers. Looks like they left them off this mount.
