The Acherus Deathcharger is pretty neat, too.

That's definitely a terrible feel. I usually re-load the game when that happens

You mean the terribly controlled horse from Zelda that never does anything BA, and is present in the most overrated series of games ever, with unimpressive visuals, gak combat, and only the occasional good Puzzle to make it entertaining?

No, I mean my first ever video game horse that served me extremely well and showed incredibly loyalty, is present in one of my favourite franchises (and favourite game, OoT), with admittedly sub-par graphics in later games when you consider how far consoles have come, average combat that is made better by shouting "HIYAA, HYUUG!" with every swing, and puzzles which are at times less than inspired, but I don't really care.
Yes.

Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Feth that questline. Feth it hard.

I remember being so proud after I'd spent all that money, blood, sweat, and tears on getting my Charger, and then having all the work rendered pointless a few weeks after when you just bought it from the paladin trainer for tuppence.


Only a select few of us Warlocks/Paladins still remember the blood, sweat and tears we poured into obtaining out epic mounts.


Ugh, I remember doing it on my warlock. Jezus that sucked.

I'd say Skyrim's Shadowmere. Doesn't die, awesome look, fights with you, and controls relatively well. (I always found the Oblivion horses' controls too floaty)

I'd also go for Aggro, but I've never played Shadow of the Colossus.

It's in a game that is as exciting to play as it is reading the ingredients on a cheese packet.

That would be me. Nobody else has found love for Butt Stallion. Sigh. He's a horse made of fething diamonds, people!! Owned by last years #1 video game villain! How do you not all appreciate this?! At least Ensis and I are high up enough on the video game evolutionary chain. Also, Kanluwen played Borderlands with me, and I don't think I've seen him cast a vote yet, so I'm forcing his hand: Kan votes for Butt Stallion too.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.
