    I must collect all of the cats. So I bought the lion. I understand that the timing is probably meant to drain existing stocks of crowns so that players will buy more in order to get the Dark Brotherhood DLC. But that's okay.

    I am with you. I have lioness, clouded leopard, regular leopard and the panther.

    I am passing on the male, because if I buy it then I'll have to buy the white male lion as well. So I'm holding firm and only going to buy the white one. And the dro lol.

    I thought it actually looks cool :)

    Of course you do because probably you have never seen a real lion mount in a game before, here let me show you one of the many examples of how to do a King lion mount.[/img]

    That mount looks lame. The ESO one is a hundred times better. I can't believe you posted that as an example lmao.

    The new lion mount is perfect and I wouldn't change it in any way.

    Actually that Lion looks great.At least he doesnt look like a Lioness with a wig on.

    I think it looks overdone and not good at all. And I completely disagree with the new lion mount looking like a lioness with a wig on. It looks like a lion.

    I don't know people bother buying all these different mounts anyways, the nightmare black horse rules and always will, had it since it came out, not interested in anything else.

    You see, that is a matter of taste and as well a matter of if someone wants some change and use that mount, what goes best with the territory he/she is in, or stays with always the same mount. The nightmare Steed is out of place everywhere and it has ridiculous features as well - how is this steed supposed to see, when fire from it's eyes is basically blinding it?

    How are flame atronachs supposed to see, when they are made completely from fire? It's a fantasy game with magic and elves and ***, don't overthink it.

    A rather feminine Lion,I might add.I'm not the only one here who thinks this too. Other's said it.,and I agreed with them is all. However,I am glad you like your little pretty Lion. Not a problem. :)

    Nothing feminine about it, that's such a strange way of describing it. But if you think so, that's your choice. I think the lion looks just fine and completely appropriately how a lion should look, and I'm not the only one here who thinks that, as well.

    No,no,dont take me wrong. There are two sides it seems.Some people dont like it and think it looks not so buff,and the other side who likes it as it is.We each have our rights to say which we prefer.
    And as I said,I am glad you like yours.Personally,I didnt buy it for this reason.But that's just me,as others have said as well that they wont buy it for the same reason.
    Soo,..are you ok with that?

    I wasn't not okay with anything, I don't know why you would think that. I'm just taking part in an open, public discussion same as anyone else in this thread.

    Again,you mistake me.I should have added the smiley at the end,as I usually do to make sure people know I am not being snarky.
    I wasnt. I was just making sure,as you seemed to not like that I think it looks rather like a Lioness with a wig.

    Once again, I was never "not okay" with any comments made by you or anyone else. You should ask everyone else in the thread that you disagree with if they were personally disturbed by your comments. It's just a public discussion where people express their opinions.

    Huh? Awe,c'mon. Ok,just stop.You are choosing to be bothered by me asking if you are ok with what I said.I wasnt even rude to you at all. You seemed a bit sensitive and I didnt want to upset you.Seems I did anyway.
    There's no need to try and turn this into an argument.I had my opinion about the lion and you replied with your own.To which I responded,...and this is just getting silly.
    I said I am glad you like your lion,so what else do you want?
    So,..can we just,..Stop.
    If you need the last word,fine.Take it.

    If its a young lion then it really doesn't deserve the name Pride King more like Pride Prince not King.

    It is futile to discuss or attack taste related things - and people are entitled to have their taste, regardless if others see it as bad taste or not. I think the lion looks ok for a young lion - like a picture posted here has proven - and a young lion might make for a better mount than an older one - the younger is more agile and has more endurance, the older one might be stronger, but for a mount you need endurance and agility.

    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. You are only making yourselves look worse.

    nappy wig lol

    They should have given it a bigger, fully mane with a darker colour and it would have been pretty fun. As it stands, the mane is quite unimpressive and I was rather disappointed.
