So... How about a Golden Saucer?

Battle Square must be fun

Triple Triad would keep most people happy for a pretty long time. Casino area can wait for an expansion.

Also, if they ever do implement a giant casino/minigame area like golden saucer, it should be located in the Garlean Empire rather than in Eorzea. A flashy, higher tech area like that just doesn't seem all that at home in our frontier continent.

Yup tottaly behind this idea, chocobo racing, card game torunaments, monster Arena witb bets could really improve in the fun departement of the game

You know in FFXI how whatever city was number 1 in the conquest had a travelling faire/entertainment thing. It wasn't up to much but imagine one FFXIV style, i think that would be pretty cool. 10x bigger with a ton of stuff to do.

P.S. Triple Triad Yes Please!

I always like this idea but i would put 'games' among the 3 cities and not in only one. So every city would have something fun to offer and it would become more populated.

It'd be wrong to say no to an idea like this!! But if they do add a casino-ish place in one city, or all of them, I just pray the music is tolerable..the golden saucer music made me want to shoot myself after awhile >.<

*also for chocobo racing, I vote XI style where you just watch your chocobo race, as player vs player chocobo racing could have issues. Like whoever has the best internet connection would win etc. Having AI control them would keep the race fair

I have to agree. This is an EXCELLENT idea, on multiple platforms. Good for economy, good for curing boredom, good for making crafting and more mundane tasks a little more exciting, good way to pull people to less populated areas, and just good for fun! I can see that it isn't a priority at this exact moment, and SE needs to pull their cards right; However this could be the kind of addition that could really set this mmo where it is supposed to be, which is back to the righteous and awesome world of Final Fantasy Fun!
Golden saucer or reasonable facimile would be great.
Traveling Carnival Caravan FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They could use the PGL guild in Ul'dah. It is already a gambler's hall.

They are two separate places
