With all these new expensive hats and the gifts that were sold not to long ago, i have a feeling that Roblox is heading into the wrong direction.

Especially with these limiteds, over 15k robux for Classic fedora which equals $100 dollars.

I honestly don't know why a virtual game with virtual items has to drain so much money from people's paychecks.

Take down the prices of everything and make this into the classic Roblox i signed up for. The Roblox that actually made sense.

Limiteds such as Classic Fedora are expensive because of ROBLOX users.
CF owners set the price that they wish to sell it for, ROBLOX have no say in what that price is.

That was an example,

That doesn't defend the fact that the base price for some of these hats are extremely expensive and if you asked i could list over like 20 hats as an example and thats just from 1 or 2 pages of hats.

You sure can play Roblox without hats.

I used hats as an example.

You also have to pay for some games, pay for shirts and pants which are now expensive.

I don't know about you but when i play a game i like the experience everything the game has to offer and if I'm restricted i lose interest and i go find a game where i can detail my experience more.

I hate how people complain about every update, they are just ticked that roblox is changing, they need to learn that roblox won't stay the same forever. It is very poor how people act about this.

Whats poor is the experience of this game.

Now its all about these expensive items and now paid access and expensive shirts and pants that a new Robloxian wouldn't be able to afford for about 2 weeks of saving up.

I miss the old Roblox.

@Pwnzah, I don't really care about the changes, because I am rich on here as it is. I just have empathy for these other users. ROBLOX is practically run by the destructive Republican party.

Since the community of roblox has grown bigger, they desperately need this money to keep the site going and to add new cool things to roblox.

Im pretty sure they don't need $5 every month from each user so they can truly enjoy this game and fully customize their experience to their liking.

They also don't need these thousands of dollars coming from people who want a certain hat or want to collect the most expensive ones.

The are sitting on a big stack of money and still asking for more.

@Pwnzah, actually, ROBLOX gets all the money they need to run this site via companies paying ROBLOX to host their offsite ads. That's why ROBLOX is free to play. No one has to buy anything.

The base price is expensive because it persuades people to buy BC.
You cannot knock a company for trying to get money.

@usm, exactly, but this site is mainly filled with kids between 9 and 16. With this new way ROBLOX is going, this site is becoming more, and more geared toward adult users, such as myself, because we can afford these pleasures.

The general age of the people who sign up and actually play daily would be around 8-16. So when you push ads onto younger kids or when you try to convince them its not hard to get their appeal.

They don't own their own credit card so they go to their parents or guardians.

@Zee, true, and most parents aren't going to blow so much money on a kid's gaming experience. Not with today's economy.

I have played ROBLOX for 3 years..? Since then it has become more and more expensive! I would definitely agree. But, even though items are priced high, I agree it can be annoying and maybe you REALLY want that item, but sometimes they have to price items high! Anyway, since back when I played, ROBLOX has become much more expensive.
