Re: "Paid Access" - My Opinion On It Posted: 06-26-2013 11:31 AM From Chief: Except that's not how it works.
Money earned from paid access does not go straight to the game's creator; it goes into escrow for a period of time. If buyers complain -- for example, the game used a false thumbnail or is otherwise misleading -- then money will be refunded and the creator will make nothing.
Combined with thumbs up/thumbs down (and notice also that game creators *cannot* disable comments for paid access games), you'd have to be an idiot to make a deceptive paid access game...because you won't earn anything -- except the scorn of the community. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BEST. THING. EVER. Made paid games 50 trillion billion frickin' gajillion times better. Thank you <3 |

What the ROBLOX community is forgetting, is the fact that people hardly play FREE games, how many games are good enough for people to PAY to play?
I probably wouldn't pay for any of them, maybe only the top quality ones made by people like Crazyman32, Gusmanak, and Deadzonezakzak. Maybe if it had GREAT reviews, I MIGHT would pay, but still, not many people would.

Wait, couldn't someone who's evil just play the game, enjoy it but say they didn't and get their money back and keep doing that?

| Flat, I wouldn't think so. It would also count in the fact of the thumbs up and down part of it. So if someone says, "Oh, this is a misleading game" but it's not really misleading, I would assume it would take in account the thumbs up factored in it. And you could just check the comments too. It's not that hard. |

Well I hope so, although I'm not really a type of person with a lot of money I'll be buying games only that I really really enjoy.

I doubt game quality will improve much, but yes, I'd pay for the TOP stuff.
I wouldn't even pay for apoc rising, though. Even though I have a ton of robux, I don't need to waste it on games that had low effort. |

| The point is to spend it on the top rated games. |

The thing I'm interested in is, of course we all have a different like in games and what if people rate a game really good but you have to buy it and I give it a go but hate it just because of how I like games what happens then 50R$ lost forever?

| I'd assume so. I mean, you could also look at the comments on the game to get a better understanding. I would assume it's kind of like paying for a beta for the game.(Even the most games don't have paid betas) If you don't like it, then it's your problem. :/ |

Gina, no.
It's paid access to games, a feature that will be released that will allow game makers to make people pay to play their games.
