Sorry I should have clarified.

I am all for the implementation of digging, racing, and optional mini-games/content. My main issue is that the OP wants strictly "hot and cold" which has been used via the gathering system. People have commented how frustrating and annoying the gathering system is, thus a hot and cold chocobo digging mechanic would just further ignite the fire.

SE should be able to come up with a creative way to implement chocobo digging, racing, tetra master, casino, other mini-games that don't entirely revolve around the same repetitive (and completely lack luster) mechanic.

And lets be honest, everything that is "optional" isn't really that "optional" in the end for dedicated players.
