Should they add flying mounts in the next expansion?

As many of you are aware flying mounts are very popular and attractive. Many MMORPGs including this games main competitors such as World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn offer in-game flying mounts. Wouldn't it be wonderful to experience Tamriel from above aloft your legendary dragon mount? I sure think so. Imagine taking in the scenery from thousands of feet in the air while envious players watched you fly across the skies from above like Danaerys her self.

    That would just encourage more botting, the majority of bots in WoW use flying mounts

    You are able to play this game bot free by playing on an Xbox or Playstation 4. Playing with or without bots is a personal choice.

    I sure do love Griffin's. Imagine a gigantic Griffin hovering over the city as it flapped its majestic wings. Players from below looking up in envy at its greatness.

    No.

    They are not needed in this game.

    Maybe not needed but wanted.

    Imagine if this flying Guar was YOUR mount.

    I wouldn't mind hovering flying pets, but to have a no limit to Z axis is a bit overboard for Eso

    Yep a nice view from.above would be cool etc as a concept.....

    Would I want them, nope. Would be ridiculous in particular in PvP and I'm sure create lag and all sorts.

    They are not needed or wanted by most in this game.

    If by "most in this game" you mean the tiny forum population of which probably less than 50% will see this thread and even a smaller percentage will reply, then yes you would be correct.

    OP:

    I am neutral on it. I care neither way. They are not really needed( nor were those 83 houses they stuck in game for players to buy) nor do i think they would affect the game in a bad way. I would have two stipulations though:

    1) No wing flapping while on the ground or hovering just above it( like they have to jump up to at least 5-10 meters when they take flight and if you take them below that they drop to ground and land), the twilight pet is annoying enough.

    2) They are grounded in all PVP areas. I dont need bombed from 300m high while im running around cyrodiil.
