The imagery just popped in my head and I found it too amusing not to share.

Especially more so seeing as they're adding the Golden Saucer which -does- have the snowboarding mini-game.
I'm hoping they don't go too steam punk-ish for Eorzea. Every fantasy MMO lately seems to want to put a ton of steampunk or technology or what have you in there. I've grown a bit tired of Final Fantasy abandoning magic and swords for magic swords and FULLY AUTOMATIC MACHINE GUNS!!!! Cloud gets a pass since the entire party could stand behind the shield wall Buster Sword.
I did get a laugh in Ul'dah when a lalafell duo conversation was:
Lalafell 1: I have an idea for a new device. It's a cart on two wheels that you pedal.
Lalafell 2: Why wouldn't you just ride a chocobo?
WoW has made me favor having a smaller collection of mounts with the main one (Chocobo for ARR) being much more easy to get so it remains the most commonly seen mount of choice rather than 250 different beasts of varying size and type carrying people around everywhere.
I have the coeurl mount from the 1.0 CE perks I got, but I don't really care for the animation of them from seeing others ride them. I'm waiting for my
myself! ^_^Though I want to stay on foot mostly. It's just a bad idea to take your trusty mount out into the dangerous depths of the wilderness, tie him to a tree, and go wander into a cave and expect nothing to accept your offer of a free dinner.

It was just sitting there with the keys in the ignition! What would you have me do?
Also, I did not know this...
