Amusement parks can’t just spin up extra servers to handle load at peak times. Video games can. Also there is not a complex economy and ranking system that pits guests against each other at an amusement park.
They also need bandwidth infrastructure. Like theres reasons ff14 stopped sales of its new expansion instead of just “spinning up extra servers”. Theyre not installing a direct line from your house to their server, data from around the world is converging on data centers through utility data lines.
