Why cant we queue to golden saucer attractions from anywhere?

I'm far from entirely content with this game right now, but I gotta agree with Kosmos here. Asking for this is just beyond lazy (we have teleports to practically every popular spot) and further removes XIV from FF in general. If Gold Saucer is boring to be in, focus your energy on pushing SE to make GS fun to be in, not turn the game in DF XIV.

They keep adding to it, but look at TT and LoV, how similar in the mistakes they are that the games are hardly played. Plus, DF could fix the issues of these tournaments by making it so you can't choose who you're up against. Even keep it server side instead of data center, make instanced content within the world, etc. Besides, in every FF title I found the world exploring was only okay, and only really got good when I could either teleport everywhere or airship everywhere or golden chocobo everywhere. It's pretty much the same thing as exiting a city or dungeon and flying right to the GS and playing a game right away, which is how it's intended to be enjoyed, not the overly meta-gamed farms we have.

The devs just have to do it how Chocobo racing queue works. Cross-Server, but still in the Gold Saucer. And a NPC as opponent if there is no other player at that time.

Indeed. But dungeon participation would most certainly go down, because you can no longer quest, FATE or gather while you wait in queue.

Not really.
It can work like "go to the dungeon entrance and start the queue. Then you can do whatever you want during the queue, so long you don't change the zone."
