The other option is to do Mini-cactpot, chocobo racing, Triple Triad and G.A.T.E.s to earn MGP get gold or platinum packs and fill your deck with cards. Or you can do trials and get cards, or run dungeons to get cards, or play NPCs to get cards. OR PLAY YOUR FRIENDS to get MGP, and turn it in for cards.
The options to enjoy Triple Triad are endless. This is a case of gimme all the cards and I'll be happy for about 2 days and start complaining again. While I agree with some of the earlier posts. SOME of the cards could be easier to get, especially the cloud card IMO. but most of the cards are fine the way they are.
The game has lots of content (the developers did their part). The problem lies in the playerbase that sticks their nose up at the content because they feel they don't get rewarded enough for doing the activities. They want a reward each time they press the lever like it's some kind of skinner box.
I agree about triple triad...it's like RNG on top of RNG...and I also gave up on it for that reason. (RNG for the card itself and if the there is a list of cards the game picks as prize for beating that NPC there's probably RNG for that too.)
There's also the other minigames too. If you're in Gold Saucer JUST for the MGP.
So what you're saying is that FFXIV should be like going to work and binge-watching a show? Even without mentioning that your examples are terribly incomparable. I can't follow this reasoning at all. 'If you don't like it then go away' is just a lazy response. People mentioned it, don't need it.
