I'm getting sick of games putting up Gamepasses that are 100-5,000 R$. You have to pay real money to get that much. The big problem is they only get you something(s) on one game. (Sometimes multiple games if it's a gamepass anyone can use for their game.) For example, I'm all about flying, and Lumber Inc. 3 has just added a helicopter gamepass. Don't get me wrong, their normal VIP is a good price, but the helicopter is a whopping 100 Robux or 1500 Tix, and that's only going to get you one thing. This is getting extremely frusterating, because MANY creators are now using this to sell 1000 R$ gamepasses all over their game to get you something you can't do without, then they make ten more for other stuff. For example, if someone created a city game they could have 1000 R$ gamepasses all over for:
-Cars
-Planes
-Guns
-Speed Boost
-Health Boost
-Trains
-Cop Team
-Kid Team
-Robber Team
-Teleporting
-Bigger House
-Flying
-Money Boost
-Boats
-Admin
And more. It's just a gamepass. Sure, I'd buy it at a reasonable price like 300 tix, but a truly massive 1000 R$? No way. And for not having 1000 R$ I have to miss out on many of the things on the list above. I propose there be a maximum gamepass price, and I'd say about 500 tix. Because for 100 R$? You could get a gear, which you can take on any game that allows it.

I didn't even read... To much but I do agree... Too much but that's how they make money... They pay 100 R$ for each pass and each pass for like 10k has like 40 or more sales... So they should keep it...

Are you stupid?

If it's too much for you to pay, don't pay for it.

ROBLOX Developers can sell their specialized products for their game for whatever price they want.

If you do not agree with the price the developer sets it for, DON'T BUY IT.

@OBCers
Guess they can raise the price floor without a care in the world then. The solution isn't "Don't buy it simple". It's "Stop them from making ALL their features P2P". You think it's cheap as you get 80 Robux a day. Roblox isn't mainly "BC buy it, NBC don't."
@Last Poster
Don't break the rules by attempting to insult me and null and void the thread. I don't want to spend money for a currency that isn't real. I shouldn't have to for a single game that isn't real. I'm not greedy, I'm getting ripped off, and that doesn't make me greedy, it makes me annoyed. Now, gamepasses are pretty much BC only. Gamepasses were NOT intended as BC only, they were intended for everyone.

Look, the price floor is different because you kinda need clothes, with game passes and such you don't NEED them, they just make it easier to play the game in general just save up if you want something that bad.

With the current gamepass prices, it would take you about 100 days with NBC to earn enough Tix to buy one gamepass without spending real money. It's not worth it to wait for one game. Slightly over one QUARTER of a YEAR is way, way way way, too long to get something for 1 game. This system is being largely abused now. Unless they fix the massive bias toward BC income, I'd have to consider Roblox P2P.

@OBCer Comment
You think we got OBC free? No.
@Other Comments
"I'm getting ripped off".
No, no you're not. Gamepasses are EXTRA things to ADD to the game. They are NOT required to play the game. You are not required to pay for them.
@Waiting 100 NBC days to get enough to buy gamepasses
Thousands of people buy gamepasses, which clearly show it's quite affordable. If you personally cannot afford it, make a game, and earn some money yourself.
@"Don't buy it, it's simple"
Yes, if you cannot afford the gamepass, don't buy it.

This is EXACTLY what frustrates me. I think you get OBC free? No. I think you have to pay too much to get it. With BC out of the question, that leaves me to have to buy Robux, and that won't work either. It is not affordable, because those hundreds are paying real money. It all boils down to "Pay real money or be taunted by those with the gamepasses".
@Last Poster
You can't just go out and make a good game. It requires months, possibly years of work.

Except... I need a constant profit or 200-350$ to afford it. If I don't pay after a month I lose BC. If I buy it I can kiss my birthday money goodbye. But. What do I get? Sure, maybe a 60 R$ profit, and some other features such as more places and the ability to sell, but no full game. There's BC places, but they're no better then regular places. As for OBC DevEx. To get real money, I need quite a bit of Robux, and dish out my Birthday and Christmas money, possibly a bit more, and worst of all probably give out bank details. I'll admit DevEx could theoretically make up for lost money on OBC after some time, but chances are you need to give out complicated details, and that still doesn't solve GP prices being un-user friendly.

What do you mean cut into birthday or christmas money?

-Mow Lawn-
-Get 5 USD-
-Has BC for a month, and doesn't even have to mow another lawn for a whole month-
-Month passes, still wants that BC-
-Mows another lawn, 5 more USD, buys BC again-

Rinse and repeat.

No.
Game creators should be able to sell their specialized develepor products for as high as they want.
With your logic, nothing that you don't need should cost more than $1000 because the people in poverty wouldn't be able to buy it.

Your logic makes no sense.

Your argument is like saying give me a house for free because I don't want to have to pay for that, it's not worth it!

@Minkle and Daniel
Those parts were explained.
@Vescatur
I'm not the type of person to just go around asking if I can mow someone's lawn. Plus you'd still have to mow a long time to get enough for OBC. Otherwise you need to pay for renting OBC.
@Spicy
Just because someone is NBC doesn't mean they're greedy. Roblox and gamepasses were intended to be usable without having to bring in real money. The gamepasses being 100 R$ can only bring me to the conclusion that BC are being greedy and not letting NBC have gamepasses.
