    Fair enough. The risk/reward aspects of gambling do make gambling enticing.
    As far as RP goes, most of the time I go to clubs people are already occupied or not speaking at all.
    This is a problem I brought up a while ago. FFXIV is one of the most popular MMOs on the market, and yet... Silence. Folks told me that it's because folks are intimidated by the chat rules or something like that. I might encourage an event soon.
    It's probably a blessing that you're unaware of genshin impact lol. I figured with ff being a weeb game, some players have heard of it.
    Strange enough, I watch some anime and play some japanese games, but I was never really heavy into "weeb territory" myself. I just use Japanese entertainment as a failsafe, because they tend to focus on entertainment rather than shoehorning in controversial topics.


    Maybe stuff will be figured out on how to help you get the most out of the game. With so many users, there's a lot of ideas!

    Its because MASSIVE fear-mongering campaing from veteran players that "you will get banned if you use chat, because someone gets offended hur hur"

    While in reality they probably got few hours/day suspension because they told someone to uninstall or other personal attacks in leveling dungeon where no one should give a two loams about someone dying few times.

    Or, and honestly this is more likely the actual truth, people tend to talk in their LS/discord servers rather than in game. I used to chat a fair amount with people in game, but when a bunch of them left FCs we shared, transferred servers, or outright quit....the chatting went drastically down for me. There isn't much for me to say in-game, since the few people I do talk to tend to chat on discord rather than in game, and when there is, it's usually just a quick mechanic blurb so that we can stop wiping to the same thing over and over.

    Think this is one of the most horrific things I've ever read here. I can't believe gambling real money-well. Well! There's always those slot games that are streamed on twitch! Since that's such a good time apparently! klsjdlkfjk

    Why does it have to be real money? Was this post satire?

    I'm almost certain that this isn't about gambling real money and more about having actual risks and rewards when "gambling" in the saucer. Right now you pretty much can't ever lose MGP on any of the minigames but you also only make pennies with 95% of them to the point that they're not worth the time investment.
    There is none of the thrill of for example being close to winning a massive amount of MGP but one mistake could cost you all of it, and maybe even leaving you with a lot less MGP than you had before.
