Konke okusethwe ukuthi kuguqulwe, ngohlelo lokusebenza olusha olungashintsha umphakathi wethu wokuxhumana unomphela. Ngenkathi iLinden Labs yenza iLinden Dollars (uhlobo lwemali lomdlalo odume kakhulu iSecond Life) lushintshana ngemali yangempela, bavula umhlaba wokudlala online ngokuwuletha emhlabeni wangempela.

Sekuyiminyaka manje iSecond Life ihola leli phakethe ngokuya ngamasu amasha kanye nokuxhumana komphakathi, kepha uma i-EA ikugcina lokhu kungenzeka ukuthi sibheke ophikisana naye omusha ngomqhele. Ngemuva kwakho konke, baqhamuke nemidlalo emibili ethandwa kakhulu kunayo yonke (uSims noSims 2), ngakho-ke abanye bangasho ukuthi lokhu akumangazi njengokubuyela ekhaya.
