Why can we not improve Torrent as well?

[(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞]

Horned goat-horse is just a dumb gimmick with horrid controls.

They made the control worse to make the animations look better, which was a bad tradeoff. That's what happens when your game director doesn't actually play his own games.

bad controls is just bad players who dont know how to control, always has been. same story in monster hunter games with their countless "clunky this, clunky that" threads

A bit more health would be nice. In late game areas he dies when enemies glance at him sideways.

Does he die, though? There's a distinct horse noise when that happens, and he has like 2-3k HP later on, so actually killing him is not that trivial.

I rarely had him die on me, like, ever.
If you get knocked off, that's you not holding on hard enough! : D

No actually bad controls are bad controls. Thanks for your cooperation.

I do wish we could upgrade him but you have to be a mouthbreather to not understand the controls. Any boss you can fight on Torrent is just trivialized with him

Except for Fire Giant phase one. ♥♥♥♥'s impossible on horseback, but pathetic on foot.

already linked this video and made this point before, but if the controls are so bad make a video and show what is so bad about it. the bigger the enemy, the easier they are to beat on horse, so just for that i made a video with me going over the lake area fighting small monsters without issue, with a small range katana. if i were using a halberd id be even more efficient cause its charge attack can one shot 4-5 enemies at once

did i mention torrent is also able to completely destroy lobsters, crabs and dragons without even being hit once? its controls are just perfect imo. jump over a crab/lobster gg, dragon jumps up in the air, sprint away and u dont get hit at all by breath attacks

His HP is a % of your hp.

I've talked about this with friends and everyone seems to agree that at the very least visual customization should be a thing. They can always add it any point in time and I think they will.

[Dr.Abscondus]

Love the horse but I thought the same thing about getting him some armor too. The horse is the thing that completely changes this game from a souls game into something new. I feel powerful on that horse which I've never felt in any souls game no matter how high leveled. Just need a dedicated horse whistle key like most open world games.

Think it's true some of us like Torrent, and can even play well enough on it ourselves that we would not mind Torrent being more inclusive, and less 'just transportation' in the game?

Agreeable

If could upgrade yourself and torrent would make all mounted combat even more trivial than already is

[Cooperal]

I wouldn't want anything that would majorly enhance his innate capabilities. Like if the game had multiple upgrades for speed and jump height, that would have been counter-balanced by slower running and lower jumping in the early game. That would suck.

I am surprised there is no horse fashion though. Some sort of defensive augmentations would also seem like a natural fit for the game. Or maybe even let Torrent unlock a few talisman pouches so that we receive their effect only when we hop on. Imagine the bliss; if you could just equip your cat talisman on Torrent and leave it there for the rest of the playthrough.

The current system is underwhelming with little more than a numberless health bar to help you understand anything about Torrents ability to stay standing or alive. I don't mind the crafting system, but everything about raisins is stupid.
