 I dont need a mount in game, and can see how it would be more trouble<to implement than it is worth, but can we at least see some in the cities pulling carriages nd elsewhere in the background? DAO and DA2 their absence was a bit noticable, and with the Chevaliers likely to make an appearance in this game it would be far more surprising to see them without their horses.

[MichaelStuart]

If it doesn't really add anything to gameplay. I prefer resources not be spent on it.

[goofyomnivore]

I thought I read somewhere (maybe a codex?) that Orlais has more or less the monopoly on horses, and that they are rare outside of Orlais? But if we do visit Orlais I'd like to see a horse or two.

[The Teyrn of Whatever]

I think the devs said that if they could get the animations right and there was some good reason for horses to be there, they would have horses in DA game. Just speculation, but given that they're opening up the world somewhat, it might not be a bad thing to be able to speed up travel.

If nothing else, just seeing wild horses grazing or horses in stables wouldn't be a bad thing. They would add to the sense that we're exploring a living, breathing world.

I'd love to SEE horses in the game, their absence, much like polearms, is very conspicuous. I don't necesserily want mounts though, since the instanced world most likely do not make them desirable.

This^ more or less

[Arppis]

I'd rather just see walking. Driving and riding holds no appeal to me gameplaywise.

LOL. The day the BSN dies, this phrase needs to be mockingly plastered across its tombstone.

HA! Yes, this!

I think he's right in this instance, though. I'm sure BioWare has (very) limited resources for DA3 development; therefore, it's better to spend them on more meaningful things.

Filthy beasts.

[Cribbian]

If by horses you mean bowstrings then sí.

[Volus Warlord]

I would like to ride Nightmare Moon into battle.

[cindercatz]

lol, yeah, I think BioWare has enough funding to make the game.

Personally, I've been suggesting mounted combat for certain encounters since right after DA2 came out. I think it would add to alternate gameplay, and I don't think it's overly difficult so long as they can get the animation down, design a few levels around it, all that. It would be good to see horses, griffons, dwarves' livestock animals (can't think of the name, like a rhinoceros), even mabari and wolves, all as mounted units eventually. I see it as purely additive and potentially a lot of fun.

Lol, it's like Bioware is this stingy old grandpa, counting the three dollars he has in his brass money clip:

"Well kids we have enough fer pizza but ya can't add pepperoni and ya gotta share a sodee!"

Don't forget that EA is the one giving the grandpa his pension. And the grandpa wants to get the most out of the money he is given.

I like the one with horses.

[Wulfram]

If we're in Orlais, it will be kind of odd to see loads and loads of chevalier, but not one cheval.

[Shevy]

Since Orlais seems to be place we're going to, horses would fit perfectly. BUT more important for me are bowstrings. The game ships in 2013, no bowstrings would be more odd than the lack of them were in the first two games.

Details like that can make an amazing game out of a good game.

On the other hand those details don't make a good game from a crap game, which is the more important area i think..

I'd like to see horses in the same way I'd like to see a dynamic world with weather and the like. It's nice but I'm not exactly in dire want If everything else is great then sure go for it but there are areas that've been lacking from the off that could do with sorting out prior to the addition of side dressings.

[ReallyRue]

Surely it wouldn't be that hard to just have horses stood around, so it's not as if they're as extinct as griffons. After all, I'm sure I saw at least two cow-ox-things in DAO, and those can't be that different to the model of a horse if they're just stood there doing nothing.

[Mercedes-Benz]

Horses should definitely be in the game, even if the player himself doesn't ride them.

[Knight of Dane]

Heh then Bioware would have to begin making beasts again altogether. I mean Halla, Bronto, Deepstalkers, Wolves, Bears, Oxes and more wasn't in DA2 (though a few made it back in DLC mind you)

Halla! Yes, how could I forget. They have halla, and cow-ox things, so why no horses?

[mousestalker]

If we do wind up going to Orlais, there will have to be some frenzied retconning if horses aren't in the game. The premier Orlesian fighter is a chevalier and they ride horses.
