Now everything is just a downgrade and sell game.

Just a ploy to make money, which is fine, roblox is a company after all.

This has led to the lowering of almost every item, and for demand to become way too much of an issue.

But, if you think it's an amazing update and gives tons of profit and raises items everywhere, thats your opinion and I respect that.

i think that ur right on one hand but on the other it makes all the big items want to be downgraded

therefore not too many items are literally unobtainable these days

e.g ill is ugly, but it was rare and original so it was about 1.2m

its now at a considerably low value because people simply want to downgrade

@Mitt

That is a fair point, and would be a great argument.

But, with the lowering of big items, smaller items lower nearly the same percentage.

This makes it possibly slightly harder to obtain bigger items, especially for a new member starting out.

That's my point.

The rich get richer, the poor get more poor.

This system is heavily unbalanced, I wish it wasn't 100k for 100 USD.

More of the scale of buying robux, more balanced for everyone.

true

but it was always hard for the poor to start out

and always easier for the "rich" to get more, because their profits are just naturally larger with larger item trades

it was always like this

just i guess now more inflated

You're just complaining

That's true, and that's why I don't like it, this tips the scale even more.


For someone like myself, I lost around 300k+ within the past year, and unique but overbalancing additions like this make it that much harder to build myself up.

i think it was meant to fix the inflation

by removing robux from the economy in a way that wouldn't make all of the players rage (ie upping the market fee, reducing robux rewards, idk etc)

but i mean all it's doing is making every item go down but really rare rares, and then demand is becoming an issue

so i mean idk

It didn't fix the economy. This economy isn't going to be fixed.

Giving away 100 USD for a membership that costs 60+ dollars isn't a way to fix inflation.

@Roy

Exactly.

@whatever moron is trying to argue

Dev-Ex is a cool feature, but it's just for them to make money, awfully attempt to fix a far too inflated economy, and create new innovative features.

Just saying I'm wrong doesn't make me wrong.

I respect your opinion, please respect mine.
