How mandatory is the card game in this?

If you don't play it, the game is on the easy side but tolerable.
If you play it, the game is a complete joke of a broken game where you are a demigod by the five hour mark.

You never have to do it. Until right at the very end of the game when the last fucking npc at the end of the last fucking dungeon right before the final boss sequence walls you until you beat him in a card game.

It isn’t, but it’s the best part of the game.

I remember getting stuck there so I had to learn how it worked, it was fun. I didn't get past disc 1 though that game is boring as hell.

It is as mandatory as Blitzball is to FF10: The best part and not to be missed for any reason.

It's optional but the only fun thing in the game.
