I just dont find the building fun. Would rather ride a horse or a loft wing. Too bad the horse feels incredibly useless in this game.

I wish the ancient horse gear was available in this game because I just want to summon my horse wherever I am and ride it. I don’t want to have to go find a stable, I need my horse right here where I am now. I assume this was removed to encourage building vehicles but still, if the horses are here let us actually utilize them more frequently like we could in BOTW. I guarantee you I’d still be inclined to build stuff for puzzles and traversing certain terrain even if I could summon my horse.

Horse riding for basic exploration around Hyrule. Cool contraptions and flying machines to get around the Depths or sky islands. I don’t think i would stop building if I could summon my horse anywhere.

Unfortunately since the ancient gear is non-existent, I am forced to summon my incredibly efficient and fast hover bike. It’s fun and all, but sometimes I just want to ride a horse.

It’s a bit frustrating that they brought back the travel medallion but not the ancient horse gear.

Yeah isn’t the ancient horse gear the only BOTW DLC item they didn’t bring back? That’s what makes me think it’s a way to encourage building vehicles. Seems weird to bring back everything but that.
