    Uh...the literal giant zone that’s a huge casino. Which includes betting on chocobo racing,spending money on mini games, gambling your money away on scratch offs etc etc. Im comparing them because they’re both serious addictions irl. They’re fine promoting gambling though so there’s no reason they shouldn’t include alcohol at this point. I personally struggled with a dad who was a severe alcoholic, but i’m able to separate a video game from real life so i don’t let it affect me. I’d personally thoroughly enjoy seeing it added and seeing the opening for rp and even gameplay it could add.

    Does it still count as gambling when you can't actually lose MGP anymore? The only way to lose it by playing is to just not pick up your Jumbo Cactpot tickets until they expire.

    I don't object to a drinking system in the game, but it's not something I'd use. I do question if it would affect the game's rating, though, considering different countries have different rules on such things.

    It likely would, but let's get honest here: the age rating should have been raised long time ago anyway. In my country it's 18+ since HW if not earlier.

    The Gold Saucer is the idea of a casino. Gameplay wise there's very little that could be considered actual gambling. You can't bet on chocobo races, it's impossible to lose MGP on the cactpot, etc. There isn't even a way to convert MGP back into gil.

    It is almost identical to the way the bars and inns exude the idea of bars and drinking without any actual alcohol involved.
