Request T-Board (Mount) Poll

[KaMuiSouZou]

FF8's T Board and FF7's snowboard worked because they were both technologically based "modern" games. XIV is more a throwback to the medieval, classic fantasy style. While you could force it lore wise by just saying it's aether powered, it would seem strange to see people "T-boarding" everywhere around Eorzea. You couldn't freely skate in 7 or 8 either.

If you really wanted to see them in-game, maybe a mini t-board minion, but tbh I don't think it's well known enough for the devs to put in. Depending on how the Gold Saucer is set up, proper lore might be temporarily "lifted" inside allowing for a greater variety of games. If that's the case, we might see FF7's snowboard/balloon game which is probably the closest you'll get to riding a board in XIV.

I really didn't care for the snowboarding or motorcycle game in FFVII, but I mean anything that is Final Fantasy related that comes is welcomed cause it is a part of their history/lineage.

I'm not for the whole skater crowd, I just remembered Zell used them in VIII and they did look pretty neat. But you know, I'm just happy with what the FFXIV team dishes out for us.

Just re-playing Imaginary Range, Ep 2 and noticed there are 'T-Boards' in that, flying alongside the chocobos.

(btw anyone with a smartphone who hasn't already should download IR - it's free. i hope Square make another episode soon!)

I think we have more than enough as it is.

What do you mean, "more than enough"? Do you care to explain? I think what they have implemented already is just scratching the surface of what they are going to be bringing into XIV.

More than enough mounts. How many do we need? At release I'll have three, I only have one backside to sit on them.

We need as many as we can get, because some people like a change of scenery sometimes! While players like you might be content using the same mount for years, some players, like myself, would like to mix it up sometimes and try something new! A T-Board, however, would become my main mount, and unless we got something cooler, would always be my main mount. Hover boards are radical, to the max!

I'm positive the FFXIV team already has quite a bit of creatures/things for us to ride on, if not now, then in the future.
