    The vase is super easy. There is an easy path to win without getting caught.

    Skinchange is easy, but I got bored of it because sometimes it takes me a while to spot the difference and becomes time consuming.

    Fungah is a lottery, so it's not stupid. You win some, you lose some. I discovered a sweet spot where I win approximately 75% of the time. Cha-Ching!!!

    The bombs is my favorite. They shouldn't change it. The randomness of the explosion timers and drops is the fun part!

    The emote one is the longest game, but the easiest by far.

    I mean, I can do Vase Off easy enough, I'm patient enough for it. But of the group, I find it the most boring. I'd maybe be more up for it if the NPCs were more obvious/visible, maybe even with indicators of their visual range.

    Skinchange isn't bad when you know which bits to look for. It almost always comes down to 2 that look close enough, and the rest are quick and easy to disqualify.

    I mean they're all kind of ehhhh aside from both Cliffhangers. The one I don't do at all is Skinchange because the dark lighting in the Gold Saucer makes it incredibly difficult to spot any minute differences.

    Out of all of them, Skinchange is the one I am most likely to skip. The one I hate the most is Any Way the Wind Blows, which has burned up more of my time without a payout than all the other GATEs combined. I'm glad adjustments have been made to both of them to make them more worth doing.

    I don't mind vase off. As others have mentioned, once you've established the path, then there's really just one or two NPCs you have to worry about. I like how it sometimes throws a curveball at you, and makes you go after 3 vases.

    I'm also glad they are adding additional emotes to Time of My Life, which is by far my favorite GATE to do. However, I do wish you would get bonus MGP for getting a perfect score.

    The bomb ones are a blast! (pun intended)

    The skin change one is less tedious if you just use first-person mode to look at the characters instead of going into the rigid “take a closer look” menu. (Though the effectiveness of that might vary depending on your character’s height/viewpoint.)

    I don’t currently bother with Vase Off. It’s too hard to spot the enemies or know what their range of sight is.

    Not a fan of Skinchange. Sometimes it's super obvious but I do make a point to look at all the NPCs "just in case." I dislike when the differences are incredibly minuscule because at that point it becomes tedious and not worth bothering with IMO. So I skip this GATE nearly all the time unless I'm literally in there with nothing better to do.

    Will do Vase-off simply because it's incredibly easy once you have the route down. I admit, since it's the same thing every time that it's boring, but I rather do that than potentially have to look closely at several NPCs.

    I don't enjoy either GATE. The fact that there's been pretty much no change/variance in Vase-off since it was introduced and Skinchange is just "bleh," means the only GATE I still derive any enjoyment from anymore is Cliffhanger. Time of my Life feels braindead and Any Way the Wind Blows is just sit in one of the "safer" spots and wait. They really should've considered updating/changing at least a few of these GATEs at some point in time and not let them stagnate so.

    That's a long route... its simpler to continue along from event square to wonder, go up the stairs avoiding the one roe (whats on here as the third delivery) then back down the stairs, then over to the water fountain on the other side and use it to jump you up to the last guy.

    Meh. These days I don't do gates much at all and just get the weekly challenge log mgp rewards, mini cactpot, and consolation prizes from the jumbo cactpot. I have a lot of mgp and I already long ago bought what I wanted from prizes is basically the reason for being lax about it. I don't do the emote one, but I do the others.
