Other means of ground transport - non mounts

A forum user in the thread about flying stated that mounts are a means to hasten the movement. That is correct. In this topic, however, I'm talking about:
1) hovering animations
and
2) sprint animations
Give "Other" cateogory to "Mounts" and make such means of movement attainable after completing a quest chain, eg. in Malabal Tor or Greenshade (after encoutering and saving the Green Lady)
Assets are already there, just a matter of implementing them. Oh, and it would decrease falling damage by 10-20%

✭✭✭A magic hovering disc would be cool. Basically a mount, but floating on a rune made of magic.

✭I'll just throw the old Monty Python out there and suggest they give us two coconut shells to clap together to make it sound like we're riding a horse.
Actually, we have stick horses. We should be able to have a scamp/shriven non-combat pet that will clap the coconuts together for us when we're on a stick horse. Just saying

An excellent idea! Utilizing the existing code in new and interesting ways.
I've been wishing for a magic carpet for some time now. Hovering around on a esoteric Dwemer contraption would be awesome, or why not floating around on a spider web?1 -

Its like the cannon and gun argument. Yes, they can exist in TES given that the materials to make them exist. However, many people hate the idea because it takes away from the fantasy aesthetic.
Could be cool to have a floating version of the stickhorse where you just glide around. After all, levitation isn’t banned yet.PC/NA Dungeoneer (Tank/DPS/Heal), Trialist (DPS/Tank/Heal), and amateur Battlegrounder (DPS) with a passion for The Elder Scrolls lore- CP 2000+

we have dwemer and clockwork city which would also take away from the fantasy aesthetic if mechanical mounts that aren't metal animals are a problem.
and yea a floating stickhorse would be cool.
i don't ever see it happening because flight won't happen, but would be cool.miaow! i'm Luna ( she/her ).

Sure, but how those inventions function and what those inventions look like retain more of a fantasy aesthetic than a gun or a motorcycle.

Having some magical levitating would be fine, depending on look. Same as magical fast running.[Lie] Of course! I don't even worship Daedra!8 -

you mentioned guns twice now, i didn't.
however guns are way older than motorcycles and the first hand cannon is from the 13th century. so if the fantasy aesthetic has to have weapons that were popular several hundred years ago(like crossbows) a hand cannon like that wouldn't be so strange.
and motorcycles didn't always look the same.
a motorcycle mount doesn't have to look like a Harley Davidson bike.
it could look like this
some of the mounts we already have are based on extinct animals like dire wolves and sabre cats so why not look at the past for non animal mounts too?
and a half machine raptor isn't something you'd see irl that is true, but a full machine raptor would be possible.miaow! i'm Luna ( she/her ).

I'm not using guns as a strawman but rather because it is a perfect example of this argument-- one that has been done over and over again in the lore community. I'm not as opposed to the image you sent, though it does bring the suggestion of letting us have horse and cart/horse and carriages.PC/NA Dungeoneer (Tank/DPS/Heal), Trialist (DPS/Tank/Heal), and amateur Battlegrounder (DPS) with a passion for The Elder Scrolls lore- CP 2000+

Almost no one outside the Clockwork City even understands how the Dwemer built all they did, much less how it all works. Tamriel is still VERY deep into Medieval technology, and with Magic being so readily available there's no driving force to invent and advance, and I highly doubt Sotha Sil is gonna return to Tamriel as the next Henry Ford.
Also, think like you live on Nirn. Why invent a new powered wheeled vehicle, when Portal Magic exists.CP2,100 Master Explorer - AvA Two Star Warlord - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan
