> [@JuuR\_Zibaoo](#): > > you dont know that … you really act like a small child didnt get sweets in the shop … I know economics, that’s how inflation works. Go look at a few charts.

Funnily enough, MMO monthly rates haven’t meaningfully changed in the 22 years since EQ came out (didn’t play UO, so I don’t know about their rates). > [@IImari\_Juutilainen](#): > > Nah, it means the road may support heavier traffic. Sure, but that doesn’t make your car bigger. That’s something _else_ that has to get improved separately. ---

not really it peaked hard for a bit then settled. the only thing that makes it look worse is the scarcity dip. something everyone knew would hurt numbers while it was active. ---

That depends on your framework for ‘long term’. I mean, if we say ‘between now and 2004’ then it’s a long-term upward trend. More importantly, though, apples and oranges. @Lugh_Crow-Slave is talking subscriptions, you’re looking at Concurrent Users. Two totally different measurements. ---
