Sure, with the current one its good and all, I'm not saying that its bad, but the shadows can be drastically improved to make a lot of places look better.
First of all, the shadows presented in game, don't really look dynamically fitted with the rest of the lighting.
What I'm saying is that having a dark blob for a shadow isn't really appealing if you wan't to have an appealing lighting system. Its just too plain and unattractive.
Instead, ROBLOX should improve on the shadows, and base them off from shadows in real life, the size, darkness and sharpness of the shadows should be dependable on where an object is positioned, the altitude it is at, the time of day, etc.
The shadow in conclusion would become more life like, and appealing to the eye. The shadow would take shape of the object its projected off of, and the spaces of light in between objects.
The sharpness of the shadow outlines, and how stretched they become all depends on the other systems of lighting, like the sun, as previously mentioned earlier.
So instead of having blobs as represented shadows, they can loosely represent the parent object, and configure themselves based on other aspects of lighting. |

| @Sly, Those are called stencil shadows, and ROBLOX removed them in 2013. |

The shadows look fine on my computer.
I don't know why stencil shadows were removed. They looked amazing. They lagged users out, but you can always adjust your graphics quality. |

| Yea, ROBLOX could really improve shadows to be more life like instead of big blobs of dark areas. |

i really wish they kept the old stencil shadows this is a game all about having advanced stuff and what not, but these blobs look like they went to photoshop, made a black circle using the airbrush, and called it a day.
