    A few arguments against:
    -Skyrim was fine without flying mounts.
    -There are invisible walls in the game - for a reason.
    -Talos didnt use one
    -Thamlor likes the idea
    -Fus-Ro-Nah

    Thanks.
    When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
    What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
    For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
    O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

    or they could make it so you could fly around 20-25ft and when you are going towards boundary wall the mount will slowly start to turn so you don't face plant the invisible wall, something like that i still think this would be a real cool feature to have in eso and i hope they will add it in the future, i would love be able to see the zones from above :-)

    Would wreck the game. The game world isn't designed for it.

    It's worth noting that the MMO that made flying mounts popular, WoW, backed away from them in their latest expansion and don't seem to be keen on allowing flying mounts to be used in the WoD expansion zones anytime soon. This speaks volumes.


    devs said after swimming under water is developed they want to be able to fly :-)

    i 100% agree with them and i want to fly to.

    No they didn't say that. There was an offhand comment about if they develop underwater environments players will want the sky to be accessible also. It was a joke and a comment about underwater being a slippery slope and was likely also a passive aggressive justification for not working on underwater content.

    How dare you rebut with factual information!

    Would You Buy A Flying Mount If They Were To Come To ESO

    NO NO NO

    Come on.
    You have your way shrines, your transition shrines in Cyro.

    Where in lore - Besides 800-1000 years down the road in Dragonborn do you see people riding around mythical flying creatures. Tell me you're going to go capture a wasp and jump on it's back with your "wasp voice" powers with out it impaling you through the chest. Better yet let's just evolve the races instantly to grow magical fairy wings and flutter around Tamriel.

    2. They don't want you to just skip content/mobs/exploration to drop in on some mats or a chest on the ground.
    3. Go play WoW
    4. Enjoy Elder Scrolls for what it is. Elder Scrolls.

    NO go back to WOW for that, not in stars for ESO. Now maybe where you are killing a dragon and get on his back till you kill him. :smiley:

    Flying Mounts would cause all sorts of issues in PvP. The current setup allows you to be vulnerable like everyone else in Cyrodiil. Flying Mounts would be the first actual sign of P2W as players would be able to maneuver out of the reach of enemy players with ease.

    From the lore-breaking to the very probable mechanic abuse, flying mounts should not be included in the game.

    Most people will just use it to fly over the required NPC and drop down instead of fighting/stealthing through the mobs. Permit it in PvP then it could be even worse as people sky-dive into keeps and resources.

    Even the practical use of faster travel is somewhat negated by the fact that we have other mechanics that help with the issue (i.e. wayshrines and horses). By that point flying mounts are just to get to point A to point B with minimal threat/effort. There is a reason Blizzard said they regretted implementing flying mounts.

    That being said though, if the 'flying' mounts instead referred to mounts that merely hovered above ground (like the mighty netch) then I'd be ok with that.
