i love me my final fantasy series but am i the only one that skips mini games? i play them the one time they force me too as part of the story and then maybe a few times more ..maybe. then move on and keep playing the main game. i don't mind stuff like this in mmo's but in my opinion they are resource consuming and would rather see extra endgame content but that is just me. i've yet to see any mini game in ffxi have any life to it past a month or 2 of everyone completing the quests for it. along with this being requested every month by someone, things like chocobo races have been too and we had that in ffxi and it was empty. either way though long as it's not a forced thing to do like others say about pvp i'm all good with it. but again i'd rather have an extra floor from crystal towers launch over all pvp and mini games.
