    Egh. If people had taken that option, SE would have thrown rewards at people until they DO run it, because people not running the roulette isn't an option on the grand scale either, as new players need bodies to get through that part.

    It's just bad design and they didn't feel like investing a lot of effort into fixing it. That's all there is to it. As far as story is concerned, the ideal way is always to allow people to go at their own pace and that means to not have other people around to interfere with your pace in the first place.

    That's basically what happened already, they upped the awards when the change was introduced, and then upped it again after a while, the latter change coming alongside Yoshi admitting in a live letter the data they were seeing wasn't satisfactory.

    Yeah, he did, in a live letter or something, I remember watching that. Here's to hoping that if they'll already revisit that area, they'll take care of this, too. Then just take care of this the one time instead of constantly checking the data and tweaking things, and I can only imagine how much overhead goes into that process
