StaceyPowers Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I was so stoked to find a summonable horse in the Soul Cairn in Skyrim the other day (I am on my first Dawnguard playthrough). Finally, a horse that I don't need to worry about getting lost or killed; it solves so many of the problems I have had with Skyrim mounts. In general, I seem to find mounts in games problematic for a variety of reasons. Which games do you think have the best and worst mounts, and why?

killamch89 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 In my opinion, Skyrim has some of the worst mounts possible in terms of AI. I meant apart from Shadowmere and Arvak who are both immortal, the rest aren't but they'll try to fight dragons among other dangerous creatures and will usually get killed by them but they don't seem to mind.

The Blackangel Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 The horses in RDR2 are a real pain. You have to make sure to feed them regularly and keep them at a healthy weight so they don't starve to death and literally fall over dead. Most are slow and sluggish with microscopic stamina. A majority are just flat out stupid. The tiniest of predator animals and they completely freak out, throw your ass, and run away. Even if it's just a simple snake. The bears, wolves, cougars, alligators, and panthers I get. But the same panic attack over a snake? The fangs would break off if it tried to bite through the hoof. I've seen it IRL, and know most of the snakes IRL as well. They go low, not high when they strike. If you want a fast horse with great stamina that keeps healthy (as long as you keep it fed) longer, then you have 2 options. Wait until the stable is open in St. Denis, or head into the mountains. St. Denis sells an Arabian, but there's also an Arabian that you can catch in the mountains. The wild one is the better, and actually best horse in the game (look it up) but also the hardest of all the wild horses to catch. If you want a quality horse, she's worth the stress. Just be stubborn. Her main downside is that she's in the same group as the majority. Absolutely stupid. If you can get past that, then she's well worth the effort. But don't shoot anything if you can avoid it. The gunshot will scare her away and you'll have to leave and come back to try to get the game to spawn her again. There are wolves up in her area, so you may have to leave and come back several times due to having to kill the fucking wolves. killamch89 and StaceyPowers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomb Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 City Hunter is the most boring game for me. The graphics and background is too dull. And moreover the character they use in the game are just not good. You can't even differentiate from enemy and the passers by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly helpful and detailed recommendations. Thank you!! Incidentally, I think the RDR horses ride better/more naturally than those in most games. But in the original game, you don't have to feed them, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Personally, I find Pegasus in God of War II which was used by Kratos to the Island of Creation which was grey in color and had flaming wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
