Bear in mind that part of the Yoshi Ps philosophy of this game is to play as much or as little as you want. But to get anywhere with the Gold Saucer, you have to essentially play FF14 religiously every week...
In part, I was replying to the post prior to mine that said it wasn't designed as content you can just zerg through in a day, week or even a month. It appears to be designed to be done over a long period of time. So yeah - if you are talking about content that was designed to be done over a long period of time... and you are looking to get it done in a short period of time, Gold Saucer isn't for you and you didn't go to the right place.

In your opinion, payouts are low. In my opinion payouts are fine. You talk about Jumbo Cactpot. What do you want the payouts to be? You can't lose. You put up 600 MGP and the only way you lose is if you don't pick it up within a week. That's it. It is "something for nothing." And some aspects of the game should take a long time - that's what makes them valuable to do (if titles and achievements are your thing).

GATEs give you 3000 to 5000 for a few minutes of time. How much more should it be? Just because there is one mount in there that costs 4M MGP doesn't mean the payouts have to go up to make it easier to obtain.
