Thank you Matsui

Wasn't the Matsui-P trust always meant to be seasonal? The original implementation of it was from Dec. 2020 - May 2021: http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics...99/detail.html

It was. But for me he just made a lot of stuff possible that wasn't. On summoner I can do chains with him and maigc burst them every time, for me it was a massive solo DPS boost.

The bottom line is trusts that are just seasonal or associated with events should not be a thing, they should be permanent.

It's difficult to understand from the translations but doesn't it say in this video he wanted to keep Matsui-P?

Someone asks question 2 about it, 28:52

I personally have a different opinion, you can already see the decay as sub numbers slowly drop. They have not helped their case at all by casually saying they are literally going to do less for the game and still take the same pay. The only thing left is for them to actually give the players the finger in some meta cutscene from the developer like they have in XIV. I think you 'll begin to see the decline more clearly once they wrap up TVR and theres not much after to look forward to.

How do you gauge that? On all the servers I play on the logged in number of players seem to be same past 6-12 months

I wouldn't trust it to be more than projection.

Personally, I don't measure the decay in character numbers. They aren't reliable and are significantly inflated or AFK.

One way people never look at it is that the sub keeps essentially becoming cheaper with inflation. A normal player might spend $13-25/month on this game. That means almost nothing in 2023 dollars compared to when the game was new.
