What happened to the ROBLOX where people made games for fun, not money?

That's all people care about anymore(or most people)! They want us to give them money, hence why I rarely buy game stuff. I feel like I'm contributing to someone's wealth.

Look, I know gameplay is fun, but have you ever considered what the creator is thinking?

I know this probably won't be changed. I want my voice to be heard... it feels good to get stuff off your back.

To play the devil's advocate here, what's wrong with people making games and monetizing? I mean, they will get 0 return unless the game is fun, so it encourages people make better games. Of course there's the problem of pay-to-win games, but usually those don't succeed anyways.

People won't play games unless they are fun. If a game creator monetizes a game such that the level of fun is gone, they aren't going to have any success. The #1 priority should be fun, monetization should come 2nd.

it doesn't bother you that you are giving someone money? Not just someone, someone that already has a lot of money.

Your missing the entire point. You just said its the #1 most important thing about a game, not what you are going to do about that issue in the game to make sure you aren't violating the number #1 term of a game "have fun"

I like the idea of devex, it helps create more and better games, it rewards people who spend the time and the skills to be paid off

Look, I understand you want to make ROBLOX a better place and all, but don't you think too many people are caring about the money?

I bet most of the creators don't even care about the players, only their ROBUX.



ROBLOX Motive: To have fun, build, etc.


ROBLOX Motive Now: Build for money

He's still right, though.
If you make games that are overpriced, people won't buy them.
If you make games that aren't fun, people won't buy them.

That's business.

That's my alt. Whenever someone brings up that I didn't join long ago, it's unfortunately necessary that I say I did on an old account.
