What would you people say if there was some form of transportation besides walking (available by quest or purchase) that was faster than walking? Like a horse, or something?
Or a mule?

Maybe they could have special abilities, like extending your attack, but only with ranged, or allowing you to carry more items or use a special attack (falcon punch!)? Or something? It would make the game more interesting. You could have skills that came along with it, like Riding, or Flying, or Swimming (for a giant fish or something. It would reduce your ferry price, but also dump you in an unknown location.)

Maybe other people don't, but I find it annoyingly slow to move around. Even from Dimond Cove to Hurnscald is too far. And with the beach pass gone, the distance to tulim is still long, but not as long.

Whatever. Tell me what you think.

Walking from Nivalis (when it was there) to Tulimshar took less than two minutes. Walking around is part of the game, and not too slow. There are also NPCs to warp you to locations for a price.

The idea of a rideable animals is not bad per se, but it would require frames for the playerset and every piece of equipment - and I don't know if it's even possible with the current server software.

It is.
And no, not necessarily. Suppose you're going from the Bat caves in Nivalis to Tulimshar? (something i did quite regularly)
