the only thing that matters is how well you can portray the game in thumbnails, ads, titles, descriptions etc.
this is why fake games reach front page because they have that pull, they're like false advertisers
people who make good games get better marketing and advertising skills in the limited space you have.
(oh ya and kids will only play your game if it has extreme murdering, false thumbnails, or overused oder paradises.) |

| Only a few of front page games are false advertising and if they get enough reports the mods take them down. |

| Not necessarily. I would say you only need to be decent at building in-order to get a game really popular, while having no scripting skills. |

You need to be decent at using free models to get to the front page

| There is a difference between getting to the front page and staying there. Generally freemodeled / misleading games stay about a week or 2 weeks top (with a few exceptions) while a good, well made, game can stay for years. |

@Spec You stole the words right out of my mouth. A game which has been script/built well has the potential to stay popular for a LONG time. (i.e - Catalog Heaven, Sword Fighting Tournament.) However, those games that are free-modelled, poorly built and false advertised may perhaps be on the front page for a day or two or even an hour, but they won't have the same feeling, and they won't have a consistent amount of visitors or popularity.

| I seriously don't see why people get so mad over them. They rarely make enough to get any decent hats let alone DevEx. |

| I said there were exceptions. There really aren't any super well made city games so players who cant to play a city game just go back to the one they went to before, aka ToR. |

@Spectra Yeah, because most well built city games have tons of parts, and almost everyone on ROBLOX plays because their computer is too crappy for any other games. |

| That is true, but it doesn't even have to be well built, just actually fun to play. If you added in a job system, customizable houses, etc. then it might be fun even for someone who doesn't like to roleplay. I'm just saying that most city games have no core and are just: "You are in a city, do stuff." |
