Why not? I always like add-ons like housing, mounts and so on. If it brings fun then it makes people stay in the game, isnt it right? I dont understand why some so badly dont want mount, its because of game lore or what? As most noticed probably, this game is far away from gw1, so why not implement few things like flying mounts etc . Also, we got nice maps in GW2, why not to "explore" them without WPs? It might be longer but who cares
