Wagons and Passengers

[Shynigosa]

I am aware about the special skill a T6 horse can get that allows it to carry 2 people. I thought that considering the amount of other aspects of BDO that are based on realism that wagons would already be able to carry passengers by now.

It also makes MUCH more sense for a wagon to carry 2 people than a single horse (which, if we are being realistic, is not recommended as it's not easy on a horse to carry 2 people on its back).

I'd also like to point out that ALL of the sets for "wagons" are actually not wagons at all... They are all coaches/carriages...the entire piece is designed to carry passengers, not cargo.

I for one would love to be able to see these carriages with people in the back of them (or a 2nd person in the front seat). It makes a lot more sense than seeing empty carriages running around (especially the Termine and Arneus sets which have wide open sides).

Adding passengers as a wagon feature also creates opportunities for friends/couples to travel together more closely. It opens up new avenues to avid RPers who might enjoy making themselves into a hire-able carriage driver. Or maybe you're heading out to another city with your materials and could do a newbie a favor by letting them hitch a ride.

I think this seriously needs to be considered in the near future...I'm surprised it hasn't already been implemented, I mean it makes so much sense and adding a "sitting in a wagon" animation shouldn't be too difficult. It would definitely be worth the trouble due to what it brings to the game!

What do you guys think? Would anyone else like to see wagons able to carry passengers?
