Since as long as I can remember the ROBLOX staff have been accused of being greedy, corporate and soulless. However, I think the finger has been pointed at the wrong people for too long. ROBLOX has actually been improving the game massively. Back when I joined, ROBLOX was no more than a more advanced Blockland.
The front page is extremely high quality. It has never been like this before. However, I'd also argue that the front page is one of the WORST front pages in Roblox history. How could I say this when looking at the triple A; amazingly scripted and put together front page?
Because the game devs see Roblox through the tinted lense of getting cash. The front page games are well put together - but they lack the love which Roblox games used to have. Sure, these games can be entertaining, but the developers think with money. Everything in the game is designed to maximize profit. The games themselves are merely designed to keep the player entertained long enough to purchase in-game currency and consumables for Robux and trade for rare goods with little relevance to the actual game.
Ethics have gone out the window. Back when Roblox was relatively new, games were teeming with little easter eggs, you'd rank up and gain items in-game based on merit and people played solely because they were enthralled by the game. Nowadays though, games lack any sort of fairness; you get items which give you a massive advantage not through merit, but by simply through parents money.
DevEx brought amazing quality to Roblox; but it brought about a massive change. No longer was Roblox about creating the game you wanted to create; it is now about raking the fattest profit.
P.S. this is the reason Survival 303 has remained popular from 2008 to present |
