Hero's Journey has loyally been doing bi-weekly Q&As with us for months. Today is no different as we bring you more questions and answers, as well as two exclusive screenshots (brought each week). One of which marks the return of shadows!

MMORPG.com: Mounts have been mentioned as a means of transportation. Is there any chance we will see a variety of mounts, not just horses, and what kinds of mounts might those be?

Melissa Meyer: Because travel in Hero’s Journey will be inherently more convenient, there will be less dependency on mounts for transportation. They will certainly be useful for such, but players will probably enjoy their role in combat a bit more.

Similar to items, mounts will provide a player with additional abilities while the mount is in use. The player will likely find some of their typical abilities unavailable, as they would be inappropriate for mounted combat. (A jumping, spinning attack may be fun on the ground, but it’s a whole different thing while trying to balance on the back of a horse.) As with all inventory, players will be able to select the appearance of their mounts as well as advance their mounts abilities.

Types of mounts that will be available is still undetermined.

You can read more of the interview here.
