I was a Roblox player when I was a kid, back when it was about Obbys, Tycoons, and the occasional higher quality game. Those were good times, simple times. The games weren't very complex but the studio allowed you to let your imagination run wild. And if you made a decent game, you are rewarded accordingly with the number of people that played it with Tixs. Which could be spent on cosmetics and items you can use cross game which was pretty cool. I was actually really happy to see that one of the things I liked as a kid was still around when it started to receive attention again a few years back. It was nice to know the kids today were enjoying the same thing when I was their age.
Now Roblox is constantly embroiled in controversy, runs an incredibly predentary monetization scheme that encourages mind rot games instead of fun little experiences. The site is full of pedos and man children. And the company can't go a single week without being in some lawsuit. How hard is it to run a kid centric website and not be total scum? Who are these assholes that keeps ruining my childhoods memories? And why can't kids have their own space without man-children coming in and ruining fucking everything for them?
