New lion mount sucks

✭✭✭
Should of been a bigger body, bigger mane and a goldenish color. Looks like they just transferred the lion head to the lioness body. I think it sucks. Could of been better oh well.

AriBoh✭✭✭✭✭Its a copy with superficial changes to the mesh. One step up from a recolour but still a cynical attempt to get more money for the least amount of effort.khele23eb17
Agreed. Whoever came up with the design should be shot in the foot and only admitted to hospital when he manages to find 3 other people willing to maim themselves the same way in order to accompany him.

I agree. The roar is weak as well. It should be louder and more powerful. I HATE lazy development. Copy and paste production.Motto: Make deceivers believers.

ha are they really? I bet it's so more people won't realize the "pride lion" is just the lioness with a wig.

And if they extensively designed a lion mount from the first pixel, giving it exquisite detail and beauty, with every hair individually rendered, they would get a chorus of, "OMG, stop with Crown Story money-grab fluff and fix Cyro LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG!""A probable impossibility is preferable to an improbable possibility." - Aristotle8 -

"Extensive" isn't needed, all they had to do was scale up the body and mane a bit which using an existing model should be a simple task.0 -

Yes, especially now, where the wolf is coming in DB, which is a relatively big mount for it's species.5 -
Shardaxx✭✭✭✭✭I think the male lion looks great, considering buying one or might wait for the wolf, oh decisions decisions.PS4 - Europe - Shardaxx - Wood Elf Nightblade - Aldmeri Dominion1 -

✭✭Yes, especially now, where the wolf is coming in DB, which is a relatively big mount for it's species.
Agreed, I mentioned that in another thread.
I've been waiting and hoping for a white tiger mount but after the pet it would seem like that's not going to happen so I may just buy the lioness now as at least she doesn't look like a weaker version.
Or maybe, just maybe there's hope of getting my Age of Conan on and riding a white mammoth in ESO 0 -

The lioness feels great when you ride it - due to that it is not that high above the ground, her speed feels a lot faster, even it is the same as with other mounts, but it feels really fast and is fun.
Edit: mammoth as a mount is questionable, iirc there is a baby mammoth pet in the DB datamined set.Edited by Lysette on April 29, 2016 10:23PM2 -

✭✭Just logged in to take a look. I agree completely...it sucks. It is literally the lioness...with a nappy wig. The main looks like dirty dreads. Looks nothing like the majestic beast that a Hero should ride into battle. Lame Zo$. If you are not going to put any thought or effort into these new things...just don't bother.

My friend uses the lioness so I've seen it close up in action, it's funny how it looks much faster then it actually is.
I was joking about the mammoth as that's likely never going to happen in ESO...the "pocket mammoth" pet however seems to be very real 0 -

Yes, compare it with the feel of riding the camel - same speed, but feels a lot less fast paced than the lioness.0 -
Thornen✭✭✭✭✭I actually don't mind this mount it looks the same as the lions in overworld anyway.2 -
Lysette✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I might buy it at a later time maybe - at first I did not like the bear, because I thought it is a bit out of place, but after some time I got used to seeing it around and bought it nevertheless. I think the male lion looks cute in it's own right, even it is not much different from the lioness, mesh-wise.0 -

Ya know, I thought about pointing out that having a little fun at the expense of the playerbase was hardly "white knighting."
Then I realized there's no real need to defend myself againt a term that means "not a raging ***" from someone who thinks "not a raging ***" is actually an insult.

✭✭✭I like the Lion. Don't rain on my parade. I got it purely for when I make my new Khajiit with the extra character slots. Could it be larger than the lioness? Sure. Then again I think they have a certain set scale for mounts of a type. If it is a pain in the butt for them to code the Lion being slightly larger, so be it. It doesn't bother me that much, and I think it looks cool.US/AD - Dodge Hopper - Vet Imperial Templar | US/AD - Goj-ei-Raj - Vet Argonian Nightblade
