Re: Diablo 3 mounts???!!
my thoughts on this was that they should not do mounts in D3 but have some kind of gold sink to take its place. Mounts were a great gold sink in WoW making gold much more valuable, even though they had a lot of other options to have money be valuable.
My thought is they should have a teleport trainer in D3 that every char can learn for a price. Obviously this prob. wont happen as we now know the wizard has teleport on her/his own, so who knows

We had enough of D2's mistakes of allowing classes to learn other classes skills.
Blizzard will not repeat this silly and ridiculous move. The use of runes is good evidence.
Are you :crazy:?

That said I doubt there will be any kind of ridiculous move since they're taking the game's conception WAY more seriously then back in DII's time!
And NO to mounts.
Be easy with Blizzard. They planned to have like one zod rune per server, the only reason we see enigmas everywhere is because of dupes. It was obvious for players that there were already dupers, Blizz didn't really play their game, that was the mistake...

Re: Diablo 3 mounts???!!
^Exactly. Only people with no idea of balance and design doesnt realise how terrible of an idea was to give many staple class skills to everyone (like Teleport and BattleCries).
Plus the barbarian for example uses a fury system, which makes it incompatible with mana for teleport, it just wont work. There are also two unannounced classes that might have a different type of energy type. They are already very distinct and thats a good thing. No need to take whats unique on a class an distribute it to everyone because its not a good idea, it just serves to wreck balance and distinction.

Permanent buyable mounts are a no-no. But what about mounts a-la Golden Axe, where you can hop on the enemies' mounts and cause some extra havok until they take too much damage and run off/die?
That could be kind of interesting. Your action bar could be replaced by a few skills like Charge, Tail Swipe, Maul, Stomp, etc... whatever fits the beast. Any damage you'd normally take would be absorbed by your mount for the duration.

Re: Diablo 3 mounts???!!
There will be little use for mounts in a dungeon crawler. Plus the fact they had envisioned the game to be played in 15 minute bursts, once commited to entering a dungeon, no wussing out until you reached a point of escape.
Imo there was too little emphasis on dungeon in diablo2, some of the best atmosphere came from the dungeons in d1. Who remembers the chilling mood upon entering the tristram cathedral for the first time and hearing the moan of a zombie?
