Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to sit here and rant about how bad the events are lately, though they do seem... Less special now.

I can't decide whether or not I'm looking at the past ROBLOX events with nostalgia or not, but (sigh) it just. The old events seemed to have so much heart and passion and soul from the admins developing the events themselves.

Where as now a days, ROBLOX events feel almost as if they're just there to make game developers a quick buck. And by that I mean, ROBLOX events used to only be built by the ROBLOX admins themselves; however now ROBLOX events are just games like The Mad Murderer or Work at a Pizza Place with some hastily added badges and hats and hardly anything to do with the actual event or holiday the event is about at all.

We've unfortunately seen many of the once very well-acclaimed holiday events be handed over to and run by game developers. Holiday events such as Giftsplosion, Egghunt, Halloween, and it's just very... It's very alarming almost.

That being said, I'd like to hear what you guys have to say about the events. Do you think they're still fun? I do, sometimes they can be done very well and sometimes the game devs are ... well, very lazy to say the least.

Insightful / well thought out answers will be placed in an upcoming discussion video :-)

Events like the Winter Games, Summer Games, and Egg Hunts used to have something special to them

Egg Hunts had a special "hunt" aspect to them that made them enjoyable
Winter Games had unique objectives and unique games
Summer Games, although a dev event, had the unique Player Points aspect that made it more competitive

So far all of these 3 have been ruined by the generic, boring, repetitive dev events

no, they have ruined it after the this one, if they can't fix it then,
Im expecting older players to quit roblox.
In my opinion, this has to be one of the worst things roblox has done in the site's history.

@water

And I'm literally not. In the actual discussion video script I literally defend both sides, just I cut it out of this text post as I didn't want people saying "loldur tl'dr"

[Stay happy, and as always: have a lovely day.]

Most events used to be actually dedicated to their MAIN IDEA. The old easter egg hunts were actual hunts. Last year was doing tasks in tedious games to get an ugly textured weird shaped "egg". Seeing how for dev *cough* I mean summer games is already sponsoring a game that ROBLOX took no time to create, thus resulting in another wasted event.


Good job roblox.

Good.

I still enjoy some of them. But I don't play them anymore because of the games they pick.

You know, I enjoyed last year's summer games, but from the "research" I have done over this years, I find it not worth it.

I hope they don't mess up Clan Battle either
Even though Clan Battle got rotten reviews by the community
It still had that unique aspect to it and I enjoyed it
It was fun getting trophies from it too

AND they had those unique hats given to three clans that received the most points
Sadly an event like this to come back is now just a hollow dream

Devents ruined it for me, Phire. I really hate ROBLOX for letting people down all the time with these events. Every year, they have an event which brings in thousands of players. But it turns out to be a scavenger hunt you have every month... (having scavenger hunts all the time isn't all that satisfying either.)
