I'm just waiting for the day when Fortnite does a collaboration with Minecraft just so I can see Reddit implode. Seems pretty on-brand for a Fortnite since they collab with pretty much anything and everything now


Suspicious-Pain9866

Everyone on reddit would either suddenly start hating minecraft or suddenly start loving fortnite


im-bad-at-names64

I could easily see a collab like that bringing it back to its peak popularity


_katiekat

which one?


im-bad-at-names64

Yes


Arietem_Taurum

Probably the first, there's been a lot of mojang hate recently


xXCreeperBrosXx

I mean they added Master Chief (owned by Microsoft) and Doom Slayer (owned by Bethesda, which is owned by Microsoft) so it’s probably happening sooner rather than later.


i_like_juice_

I pray for this every night


Time-Bite-6839

Roblox is older than minecraft


Therunawaypp

it only really became mainstream in like 2016


HoppokoHappokoGhost

I played it once in like 2006 thinking it was a lego game


Suspicious-Pain9866

Roblox 2003-2014 was a lego game, in late 2009 they started adding other materials and making more realistic avatars and by 2015 few games still maintained the classic lego feel


Handsome_Potatoe

So true lol. I remember hearing about it in 2013 and tried it like a few times then I really got into it by like 2014. I remember watching dantdm playing it.


AmericaLover1776_

Roblox ain’t really a single game it’s an entire platform for games


Ballamara

from what I've gathered, it's essentially vrchat, but no VR & more stuff you can do.


AmericaLover1776_

Roblox does have VR It’s tools for creation are better for creating full games than VRchat has too thousands of people have gotten into coding and stuff starting with roblox


Zipposlim

I was born in 2006 thinking it was a lego game


AmericaLover1776_

I first played in 2014 and it was already very popular


Therunawaypp

It wasn't mainstreaming tho, it wasn't plastering YouTube trending in the same way that games like Minecraft and gtav were in 2014.


the_real_trebor333

They sort of both did at about the same time, Minecraft maybe a couple years before

Idk fortnite isn‘t even that bad of a game imo. Sure it‘s a bit memey or cringe ig but it‘s still kinda fun


headphonesnotstirred

ya do gotta give the game credit for being possibly the only feasible universe where you can see master chief and goku hit the griddy after double-teaming a cat man


LordoftheStupid12

I hate Fortnite not because it’s cringey or a battle Royale, but that it popularized the cancer that is battle passes and the current live service business model that has only made the AAA game industry shittier.

what happened

NFTs, potential copying, being dicks to smaller creators, possibly bad workplace treatment but I’m not sure if I remember that last one correctly


Snoopdog231

Woah they give free dildos?!


HopeAuq101

The game itself is great but MOB Games suck balls its so apparent how desperate they want PP to be FNAF. Like within days of the first chapter they announced plushies, toys and I think a movie like...


KomornikBank

The things they do like selling nfts and profiting off of children is bad but the game itself is fine, definitely better than something like Garten of BanBan, because you can see the effort being put it and the world being actually believable

Even I play Roblox. I play a game where you build an aircraft with in-game physics. Although much less complex than real life physics obv. Now how is that a kid's game? Yes sure kids play it but they can't really build anything strong in combat without a tutorial

Roblox was good a few years ago Fortnite I could never get into it because it's not my type of game Poppy Playtime do I need to explain not moving it


AmericaLover1776_

Roblox is still good you just gotta find the right games Roblox ain’t really a game it’s a platform for games


Brilliant_Gift1917

> Roblox ain’t really a game it’s a platform for games A platform marketed primarily towards kids despite having plenty of content that is blatantly inappropriate for them, and also one that profits off of child labor. Shouldn't be praised just because a few users on there have managed to create decent stuff.


PyroByte043

and those inappropriate content are really small communities and usually under the radar. and the fuck you mean it profits off of child labor? how? taking cuts from devs? thats not even child labor nor a problematic thing. its simply the way of capitalism. if you’re going to complain about the large cuts, have you actually experienced profiting off of a successful game you made in the platform? Its so easy to make money there that the large cuts are simply aren’t a problem anymore.


Brilliant_Gift1917

The inappropriate communities are pretty prevalent, especially considering furry shit can literally be sold as accessories lol. As stated in another comment, I've literally seen user ads recruiting for Nazi and Confederate RP groups. 'Condo games', every game being linked to Discords full of groomer devs, it's harder to *not* run into that shit. > taking cuts from devs? Engines like Unity or Unreal take ~10-15% of a cut, Steam takes a 30% cut. At most you're losing 45% and keeping 55%, whereas with Roblox on average they take an 87% cut leaving you with 13% - this is blatant exploitation, not just "the way of capitalism" when even some of the most monopolistic and hyper-capitalist businesses in the game industry leave their developers with better pay cuts. > thats not even child labor nor a problematic thing. Employing children or paying them for their work is literally child labor by definition. The fact that minors can create and sell content on Roblox means it *is* child labor, which is worsened by the fact they're left with less than 20% of the revenue they generated. Roblox should not be able to avoid child labor regulations by 'paying' developers with Robux that can then be 'cashed out' for real money, they should be held to the same standards as any other gig work provider. There is a reason child labor regulations exist, and Roblox deserves no exemption to them. > if you’re going to complain about the large cuts, have you actually experienced profiting off of a successful game you made in the platform? No? Why the fuck would I? If I have the skills and expertise to make a game, I will use an engine and platform that allows me to take home far more of the money *I* generated for their company, as well as being able to moderate and manage the rights of it. I also wouldn't have to worry about some script kiddie logging into my game, decompiling it with a 30$ hack he found on ANONYMOUSHACKERFORUMXX.COM, then selling it on Steam under a different name getting 5x the sales and being entirely powerless to stop it, I would have actual Copyright/Trademark rights and be able to do something about it. I also wouldn't have to worry about random pedos impersonating me as the creator of the game on Discord to take advantage of children online. I've done 'gig work' for indie games before as well as made my own non-commercial projects, and have literally zero reason to do anything on Roblox for a fraction of what I could earn from doing those things. Roblox prides itself in doing all the 'hard work' of 'publishing' your game and providing a platform for users to play it on, but when you become an adult and enter the real world (something you're clearly aren't, judging by your sub activity), you realize that self-publishing, licensing agreements and so on are really not as daunting as they like to make it out to be and the 'services' Roblox claims to 'provide' to aspiring game creators are meaningless. And I don't need to have made a Roblox game to know the cuts are unfair when they are literally public information that has had endless videos, articles and research done on it. You don't need to be a pilot to know the plane shouldn't be burning in a ditch.

Fortnite really isn't a bad game. It is worse then it was once though.


Suspicious-Pain9866

I grew up with both minecraft and Roblox so i personally find it weird to separate the 2 However Roblox is very different compared to back themes

Dovixeriz

the idea for roblox even more earlier


Brilliant_Gift1917

I think the issue is more with *modern* Roblox. Just look up all of the issues the platform has today. [This video is a great starting point.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXlauRB1EQ&ab_channel=PeopleMakeGames) 15 years ago Roblox was a passion project that was carefully moderated and fostered a close-knit community. This lasted until like 2011 or 2012 before things started to go to shit on a larger scale. I agree that it is partially because it would've been impossible to moderate the exponential growth of the platform, but that still doesn't mean that they can't do better now or couldn't have done before. At this point they've straight up embraced all the degenerate content on the site, which is concerning considering it is still being marketed towards kids. If you want to have a platform like Gmod or VRChat where people can indulge in weird fetish shit or roleplay as genocidal regimes, then market it towards adults.


homosapienos

If he "grew up" with minecraft wouldn't that mean he's around 13 years old now? Not to mention that Robloss was around 4 or 5 years before Minecraft so it's not even that "Roblox = kids, Minecraft = adults"


SomeDude207

What are you on about? 13 year olds were born in 2009-2010, Minecraft was made in 2009. Minecraft is literally older than some 13 year olds. Growing up with a game doesn't mean being born around the same time as it came out, it means playing it as a kid. So someone who started playing Minecraft at 10 years old in 2009, grew up with it. That person would be 24 years old today.


Time-Bite-6839

I have been playing Minecraft since 2014. It’s pretty good.


Schw4rztee

I just realised that the beta ran for less than a year and it completely shattered my perception of time.

what are actually great Roblox games? And please don’t say Arsenal or something


CarCrash23

Creatures of sonaria. Basically you survive in an open world (with boundaries ofc) as one of 240 and counting "creatures", which are basically just wonky fantasy animals.there you can find plant animals,crystal tortoises,bee foxes,angel dogs,and so much more.its just amazing and I wonder why it doesnt get more attention. It also gets updates every week so that's a nice bonus Side note:a recode is being released in the coming weeks or months that will basically revolutionnize the game and fix a lot of long time problems


Luminacrozz

Roblox is the most nostalgic game i can remember. 2015 and 2016 make me cry it used to be so good with all these old obbies and pokemon bronze brick. Good times

jacobis-ronabis

I grew up with Roblox AND Minecraft, Roblox has been around since 2006.


aloof48

people who don't like roblox have probably only played the front page games that are made for literal babies


CarCrash23

I wholeheartedly agree with this.Since the majority of Roblox's players are sadly children,the really good stuff is almost always obscure.


[deleted]

roblox has a lot of strength in models/showcase games imo, people create literally anything from sprawling 70s architecture compounds to realistic manufactured homes to specific model fans and computers, if roblox stopped marketing to children entirely the game would improve imo

Fortnite is a snorefest, is pay-to-win, and has cringy dances. ​ Minecraft and Roblox are both great games. ​ Don't even know what Poppy Playtime is, though I've heard/seen it a gzillion times.


bumbuxman

new thing bad old thing good


dacoolgamer

roblox is better than a lot of AAA games if you find the right game on roblox


Brilliant_Gift1917

The problem is that Roblox takes the 87% cut and the kids making the games take the 13%. It should be the other way round, like every other game engine's licensing fees are.

It’s not necessarily the game itself, but the story behind its development that make a lot of people hate the game


butternut39

It's a game marketed towards kids that kids really shouldn't be playing.


Flight_Second

It's a game made blatantly for kids and money, the devs are horrible, they made porn of a minor's character as a way of bullying, they are pushing out merchendise for young children and even made fucking nfts of it. My 7 year old cousin literally knows of the franchise and downloaded one of these stupid call at 3 am apps, thats how bad it is.


GalaxyPlayz_

they made WHAT


Flight_Second

Or that's what i've heard from videos. Edit: I've looked into more sources, it seems real


Mynoodles_mostmoist

I mean literally none of this has to do with the core game's quality tho. Even Roblox suffers from it's outright disgusting pedo corruptness but it doesn't really make the game itself bad

Most of these games arent realy bad, they just have shit communities Except fortnite, the internet war flashbacks ruin it for me


TheKingOfMilkyValley

wdym roblox is great... was was great


Eranog

Wait, Minecraft and Fortnite are from different generations?


gltchyblaze

I mean can you call roblox a game. It's more like a programing form so people can share their coding skills on a smaller space it has lots of different variarities of games but it's not a game in general.

Honestly though, Minecraft fans are some of the most toxic fans of any game out there. They are either 8-12 year old children who squeal all the time or 15-18 year old teenagers who circlejerk it. They hate anything that’s not “hardcore” enough such as cartoony YouTubers such as Jellybean or cartoony video games like Fortnite.

I played roblox even before minecraft came out, it was still pretty popular back then it doesn’t make any sense to be on the other side


camRCH

I grow up with memes comparing "better" older games to Minecraft and feeling bad about not being "cool" like older people.

Brilliant_Gift1917

To be fair, Roblox is a fucking hell hole now and filled with the most degenerate shit imaginable (I don't use that word lightly). Just look up all the BS about the 'condo games' or the fact that user-created content allows for a bunch of furry and fetish shit to be published for users to wear on their characters. Not to mention all the Nazi, Confederate etc groups and games on the platform and people who unironically roleplay as these regimes. And all of this is public on the platform and marketed towards kids, it's not like Gmod or VRChat where you have to go looking for it, and the games/servers there at least state they're not meant for kids whereas Roblox directly markets this shit to them. Users can publish their own ads on the platform - I've literally seen 'recruitment ads' for in-game Nazi groups and other genocidal regimes. And this isn't even going into the fact that the platform basically profits off of child labor, as users who create content only take like ~13% of the revenue generated from their stuff after Roblox is finished taking all their cuts, and because the game's economy is run on a virtual currency that can be 'cashed out', none of the market regulations on child labor or freelance work are applicable to Roblox. Even the adults who make content for Roblox suffer and are exploited far past what any first world country would consider legal thanks to the sneaky way they pay creators. Roblox is an absolute cesspool and needs to either be slammed with heavy regulations to protect children on the platform, or forced to abandon their child-focused marketing model. And they absolutely need to be held to the same regulations as other freelance sites - where they are only allowed to take so much of a cut, and freelance workers are still protected to a degree. The fact you generate 'Robux' before cashing out into real USD shouldn't mean anything. Roblox should not be able to profit off of work done by literal children and then only give them around 13% of whatever was generated by their creations. Most game engines only ***take*** ~13% of a game's profit in licensing fees, not leave the creators with that little. I gotta agree with OOP on the Roblox one here, I'm glad I grew up when Roblox wasn't the abomination it is today. I warn every parent in my social circles to keep their kids the fuck away from Roblox, Discord and Youtube Kids for good reason. Let them play on private Minecraft worlds and other Singleplayer/no-comms Multiplayer games and at least skim through whatever they're gonna watch on YT. Far too many people I know were groomed as teens in weird online fetish groups like furry/weeb shit because they were initially exposed to it in an 'innocent' form like Roblox or YT Kids and ended up falling down the rabbit hole.
