Roblox has made stuff updates in response to this and put many old, fun games under review for not having filteringenabled and they stay under review because the devs most likely quit roblox

forget huffington for causing roblox to loving destroy my childhood. forget you huffington post.

Wel, let's be honest here. It's just the mainstream media that is constantly basing roblox. If only I could go back to 2008, back when roblox made good updates and wasn't the bitch of soccer moms.

Roblox was always stuff.

i remember when i said this literally 9 years ago when my account was just almost 1 year old, and then again for each new year after that.
but i still loving love roblox omg what a blessing on my childhood this game was. without it i wouldnt even be on this forum or even be in the gaming industry

Roblox was always stuff.

Back when Erik Cassel owned roblox it was good. Ever since then it was stuff.

I new roblox was going down the stuffter when they started doing bullstuff like this, every update has broken an old game I once played. Without the old games here's what we got.

themepark tycoon isn't bad; it's basically just rollercoaster tycoon, it uses a grid based system, but you can make custom structures with the wall models it gives you.

roblox has always had awful clickbait games, and the problem was much worse in the "glory days" as nobody was moderating them; we just think they were better due to nostalgia.
remember VIP t-shirts? where the game makers decided to lock op content behind a shirt that you had to buy?

you can still find amazing games in roblox (e.g. themepark tycoon), but you have to wade through a lot of stuff, much like any other content creation website.

i'll often go on the roblox games page and cross out any games that i find bad or cringey
this is usually almost the entire front page

Where are you getting this from? Can you prove this? The article just sounds like some lady who doesn't understand how online games work. People can do whatever they want to an extent on an online game and it's impossible to regulate.

What does huffington post have to do with your childhood? This article isn't even a year old.

For some reason I seriously doubt you played this game in 2008.

"Wahhh me no like change!!!". I think the nostalgia is blinding you and telling you all old ROBLOX games we loved are good and all new ones are stuff. There are a ton of games that are extremely high quality and make those old games look like absolute stuff. Most old games used really simple scripts, were glitchy as forget, and nowhere near as advanced as the new games people are making. It's a lot more quality over quantity now. Get used to it.

I'll give you a list of games to try out on ROBLOX that are really fun IMO and very well made:

Mechacubes
Tiny Tanks
Phantom Forces
Rollernauts
Mount of the Gods
Zombie Rush
Medieval Roleplay Reforged
Apocalypse Rising
Kingdom Chaos
Super Bomb Survival
Armored Patrol
Person299's Minigames (a classic people still play)
Dragon Riders
Polyguns
Mad Games
Survive the Natural Disasters
Dragon Rage 

Seriously consider trying out the games I listed, especially Super Bomb Survival, Mount of The Gods, and Mechacubes.

Mount of The Gods is a very well done survival game that's unique, Mechacubes is a tower defense games much like Bloons Tower Defense with it's own twists, and Super Bomb Survival is exactly what it says it is, a pretty fun arcade game to play when you want to relax.

honestly roblox is getting better and the only problem I have with it as of now is the loving friend request scam bots, and the fact you can't really get any items from the catalog (unless it's event) without paying real money

It started being stuff in late 2008.

sky somethingorother was great... skybound I think
dynamically destructible airships, you could board another airship or blow it up and stuff and it was fun
I loved jumping from ship to ship and murdering everyone
the best part was that when someone actually paid for one of the special ships, you could steal them, so every time someone spawned an island everyone would try to hijack it (islands just had a health bar and weren't destructible IIRC) and I loved going up against the people with the P2W weapons when I hadn't paid and beating them anyways because I played way too much of it
I beat like four people with the P2W thunder cannon thing singlehandedly and took over their island
it was apparently based on UP (I mean it had the house as a ship you could get)

I don't really like the floating islands thing it just turned it into a standard deathmatch on the islands because there's actually something you need there

The main reason people hate New Roblox and say Old roblox was better is partially because of nostalgia, but also because the point of it changed drastically too.
It used to be a fun game to build stuff on with your friends and explore other people's creations, it's now pretty much it's own game engine at this point.

everyone calls roblox stuff now because of how the company changed its mindset into maximizing financial gain. this has drastically changed the simplistic environment from the old days to the new sort of foreign transactions and features.

you try running a loving f2p website and turn a profit in the meantime. i mean jesus loving christ roblox might have it's disgusting parts. but compared to alot of different MMO games, the staff and development team is above average. stop talking about how the game is stuff now, you might think that, but right now it's net worth is 898 million. higher than ever before.

It's not because of nostalgia.
I legit hate it because of the decisions they have chose to make in response to Eric Cassel dying and Shedletsky leaving. Ever since those happened, roblox has been hiring more and more randoms and has shifted twoards "money hungry company" instead of "kids game with microtransactions". The game is basically dominated by the people already at the top, no one clicks the ads and your game, even if you spend loads of time on it (like Control RTS) will die if it isn't advertised up the stuffter + sponsored by roblox.

Every server I went to in pre-2014 roblox had atleast 1 BC person or someone who has had BC gear. The people working at Roblox entirely rely off of other people and hire people and fire them like it's nothing.
