1)How many of you will be utilizing flying mounts of some description?
I preordered to get my griffin. I have no reason to use that boring chocobo except that it is a fighting companion. If SE would let other mounts be fighting companions (for which there is little excuse not to to except for SE's love of the birds mimicking the cliche' of Germans loving David Hasslehoff), I'd never use the chocobo again. EVER.
2) How many of you will be accepting flying chocobo as canon and lore-friendly?
With those tiny wings? Never. But considering that SE was showcasing a flying FAT CHOCOBO in their Heavensward Live Feed, it seems they care more about their trademark birds than they do in... well... even FANTASY PHYSICS. But, if it's not obvious, I am not nor have ever really been a fan of Chocobos, period.
3) And finally, how many people who said yes to either of the above will be independently flying to your heart's content in pre-existing areas?
Are they going to LET us fly in pre-existing areas? I thought flight was only for the new areas, so people who paid for the new content couldn't be elitist and do fly-by poops over those who didn't.
