The point is that they don't need to implement actual mounts. It's just strange that you can see broken wagons, that we know the Thieflings move in a caravan, still no mounts are to be seen around. Quite curious when we can wittness cattle animals like cows.
This !
Riding or mounted combat are almost impossible to do when this game is so focused on vertical stuff.
Imagine a horse stands there, then jumps on a roof top and it kicks a goblin down.
Looks already silly when player characters do it.
Unless you say that horses ( or other mounts ) have a tadpole too.
This seems to be a very good excuse for every kind of special power today.
