Would you like to see other mounts but horses in ESO?

daemonios · May 2014

No

More than different mounts, I'd love to see 2 persons being able to ride a single horse. It only makes sense. I often quest with a friend and we're going to the same places on 2 different mounts. Why not let me give him a ride and vice versa? This would be particularly interesting in the case of speed/stamina mounts, i.e. players might share their fast horses in PvP areas and such.

MalavarTCOne · May 2014

Yes

A Dragon Mount!!! (I know in this timeframe Dragons have technically not come back yet, but perhaps like a Spirit Dragon or like some "Summoned" Dragon/Mythical Beast mount would be pretty cool)

Yes

Yes, but only if they're lore-friendly. Nothing whacky or weird.

^This. That would be the one most important condition.

I would really love my own guar. ^^

from dawnguard DLC, really I don't think you can get away from horses without it being silly, but you can do creative stuff with them.

Ah, good old Arvak. Best horse in the whole of Skyrim. Unkillable, easy to put away, easy to call back.

SilverWF · May 2014

I would like to see main game designer as a mount!

Kemono · May 2014

Yes

That is a very interesting standpoint. I would imagine then, that you only play human races and don't utilize magicka in any way. For that would be unrealistic.

Have you seen a mount in any Elder Scrolls game that was anything but a horse that was not modded in. You know what I meant. Horses as mounts is ES.

I am glad you presented that question. Mounts in general are a relatively new mechanic in the game series.

Nah, not really. Here you can see a screenshot from 1996 Elder Scrolls game, Daggerfall. Btw to this day its largest cRPG ever released, and i serioulsy doubt this will be beated in next 20 years

You would not belive how much this game series get nerfed to catter to casual tastes, Skyrim is just final offence on long line of nerfs/simplification/removed features

Back to poll
I want a LOT more mount types then horses, but they must be lore friendly
I would like to see:
guar (or maybe kaguti instead)
Wamasu
Senche (tiger type khajit) < this is for me THE MOUNT in most MMOs
Dwemer aparatus (maybe spider legged, or even bike

)

Also i dont mind a bear mount(there are rumors about that)-while i would never ride on one myself

I would also like these mounts to be highly customizable in skin type and outfits (at least a few slots, like: legs, saddle, head, body cover), cos curent system for them is just terrible and beyond point of redemption

Morticide828 · May 2014

Yes

Argonians on Wamasu mounts, that would work.

geisslermaxb16_ESO · May 2014

Let's get some winged bulls like Morihaus

Salsadoom · May 2014

Yes

Mammoth?

Aci · May 2014

Yes

I want to ride on sheeps and they will explode from time to time!

Sidney · May 2014

No

I had to vote no. I'd like to be able to see different types of horses maybe, or add a mule following us when we upgrade our draft horse a lot.

I don't know about mammoths. When I played skyrim I never once found an area with nice mammoths. They'd be way too big unless they downsized them. Imagine everyone running around a city on huge mammoths and not being able to see anything.

As for guar, it would be neat but they're clearly very skittish and run away ALL THE TIME. I also think argonians might hate us if we did that.

sreed89 · September 2014

Yes

Arvak!!!!!!!!!!!!

Khajiit Senche-Tigers are mentioned in lore as mounts.

MornaBaine · September 2014

No

I am willing to entertain a lore-friendly mount but the fact is that this generally opens the floodgates to a veritable zoo of silly mounts and after awhile it just looks a bit ridiculous. I'd be FAR happier if they simply did a range of horse breeds. Large draft-like Chargers, elegant Arabian-like hoses, some tall jumping and racing breeds and... fat shetland ponies! Because I want Bosmers to ride them! LOL Also...a pack mule! And yes this I would just want to follow your horse around and carry your stuff.

ozm8ey · September 2014

No

no its not the elder scrolls way

Martinus72 · September 2014

Yes

Definitely yes, nothing over the top like flying dragons but some variety in mounts based on TES would be great.

Syntse · September 2014

Yes

Hmm Dwemer Sphere that you ride like Segway.

swankery · October 2014

Yes

PLEASE GIVE US A MAMMOTH! Oh yes! I am really passionate about this. I would do unspeakable and or horribly mundane things for this or even pay terrible amounts of coin! Please hear my plea!

Soulshine · October 2014

No

The wierdest mounts I have ever seen (since I have never played WoW...) were/are in Rift. I love that game but really can't quite get my head around a dwarf pyromancer riding a poofy pink bird with fluffy feathers, lol. I rrreally hope that does not happen here. Personally I would prefer more attractive and skilled horses, maybe even the ability to armor them - though not the way in which they got decked out like dinning room tables in LotrO...

ShirleyShine · October 2014

No

I prefer that they keep to horses. Heaven knows we are crammed into spaces with Toons vanity pets, summoned creatures and at times in craft stations with their horses too.
I can't imagine how much worse it would be with even bigger creatures.

Aenra · October 2014

Yes

for your information (did not read 5 pages to see if it's been mentioned or not), they have already stated that they will add non-equine mounts in the future

ThisOnePosts · October 2014

Yes

As they aren't able to be very annoying with some sort of spammable sound, then sure.. why not? I think it would be cool.

NadiusMaximus · October 2014

Yes

Spectral mammoth please. Make it rare as the spectral tiger though.

Circuitica · October 2014

Yes

I really want and need a guar mount for my Argonian. Her moist scales against the horse fur feel quite uncomfortable.

Mammoths would also be nice to have.

Pseudolo · October 2014

No

I'd like to ride a flying brick, or maybe a lead zeppelin! No, seriously, I don't care. This isn't SWTOR...

heyguyslol · October 2014

Yes

I want a Lama mount for us old time UO players.

Mercutio · October 2014

Yes

Yes. A sedan chair carried by Argonian slaves that I could whip to make them go faster. Of course if they were Khajit slaves I suppose we would have to call it a litter instead.

bosmern_ESO · October 2014

Yes

I demand a deer or Elk!

Tabbycat · October 2014

Yes

I cannot vote no because I want a Guar.

Moonshadow66 · October 2014

Yes

In every thread like this I posted it, and I do it again: I always wanted to have a Guar mount. I looove Guars, I even love the sound they make when they're grazing, it's just gorgeous. A Guar mount and a Guar pet, and I'm the happiest player in the game^^
As I just see, I'm not the only one who wants a Guar mount

Vizier · October 2014

Yes

I said "Yes" assuming the mounts introduced would be lore friendly.
