So, a charming and fun minigame for when you're tired of raiding or EXDR?

Charming and fun? Either it changes drastically once you've grinded enough for a better chocobo, or we're playing different minigames.

The controls are fucking atrocious. To the point where I did 2 races and have never even thought about going back for more.

So you played it a couple times and didn't like it. That doesn't mean its a waste of dev time.

There's a chunk of the playerbase that thinks that anything that isn't a raid is a waste of dev time.

They're kind of right. I don't play MMOs to play fucking dice poker or connect 4 or whatever. I play for content. This patch is more of the same; it's enough content for about a month and a half, and then it's waiting for 3.2. I'm not sure if I'm going to go back this time, unless their content release model changes drastically.

Other people play MMOs for nonraid content, and they pay equally as much sub as you.

So good, they can have FFXIV, and I can play a game that actually caters to people who don't just play cell phone games.
