What is Roblox? Why do people play it?

I hate ugly games. When I see this I only think, wow, this is ugly. I dont even want to be around ugly people.

At 32 I feel like I'm too old for this new generation... I'm a young millennial, how did the divide become so large! Lol

👍👍

That a huge emphasis is put on your "appearance" where kids and adults have to pay to keep up or fit in really explains part of the self image crisis that is currently happening.

We alll love Roblox I never know about Roblox but when I was planning it it was amazing

Missed talking about the conterversies and dangers, how the company doesn't care about kids, how it had to be forced to insert protections with fines of millions of dollars (mostly Euros, since fines came mostly from the EU). How they entended from the start to use child lavour for profit,... And other worse things I can't type envolving grown man.

Here from 2026

Slop is what it is, a way to sell pre-alpha builds as if they were finished games.

Ok saw it and I have no regrets never playing this 😂😂😂

I’m a gamer dad and I saw my son playing this and wanted to understand what it was cause to me it looked like a bunch of android games put together

And all this time I thought it was just a place for pedaphiles to prey on little kids!

Kids play it to be kids, Adults play it to meet kids and the ceo protects the pedophiles .....pretty simple

I still don't get it.
The artwork and avatar looks like shit.

So it's GTA meets lego meets Game editior to RIP of Kids.
Degenerate

What is Roblox? ROBLOX is an online virtual playground and workshop, where kids of all ages can safely interact, create, have fun, and learn. It’s unique in that practically everything on ROBLOX is designed and constructed by members of the community. ROBLOX is designed for 13 to 18 year olds, but it is open to people of all ages. Each player starts by choosing an avatar and giving it an identity. They can then explore ROBLOX — interacting with others by chatting, playing games, or collaborating on creative projects. Each player is also given their own piece of undeveloped real estate along with a virtual toolbox with which to design and build anything — be it a navigable skyscraper, a working helicopter, a giant pinball machine, a multiplayer “Capture the Flag” game or some other, yet-to-be-dreamed-up creation. There is no cost for this first plot of virtual land. By participating and by building cool stuff, ROBLOX members can earn specialty badges as well as ROBLOX dollars (“Robux”). In turn, they can shop the online catalog to purchase avatar clothing and accessories as well as premium building materials, interactive components, and working mechanisms.

I remember back in the day my nephew would always download this crap on my pc and it would be loaded with viruses. I know it's probably not like that anymore but that was back like prolly 15 or 20 years ago or something

I worked in a store and a kid came in to purchase a Roblox card. I asked him what Roblox was and he explained it very well. But I’m still none the wiser. I’m must be old. 😂

Wtf. I have tons of games but i dont play this game. This game is trash af

Scammers aside, I heard there are a lot of child predators on this game.

I think that movie 'Ready player one' has predicted somethin...

I used to play Space Invaders. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

This looks weird.

Robollox more like.

Roblox isn’t really a single video game; it’s more like a massive, global digital playground where millions of people hang out and play. The coolest part about it is that every single game on the platform is built by the users themselves. Using a free tool called Roblox Studio and some basic Lua coding, anyone can bring their wildest ideas to life. You can jump on from your PC, phone, or console, and the whole system runs on a virtual currency called Robux, which players use to customize their blocky avatars or buy special perks in different games.
Honestly, my overall impression of Roblox is super positive. It’s an incredible ecosystem that manages to bridge the gap between pure entertainment and actual digital creation. Instead of just mindlessly staring at a screen, it naturally pushes players to become creators. Sure, the graphics are notoriously simple and look like digital Legos, but the sheer variety of things to do means you never get bored. It functions just as much as a social hangout spot as it does a gateway into real-world software engineering, which is pretty rare to find nowadays.
The biggest strength of Roblox has to be its infinite replayability. Since thousands of creators are updating old games and dropping new ones daily, the platform always feels fresh. It does an amazing job of sparking creativity and teamwork. On the flip side, because anyone can publish a game, the quality control is all over the place. You'll find brilliantly designed role-playing games right next to broken, laggy cash-grabs designed just to take your Robux. Toxic chat behavior can also be an issue, meaning you definitely have to keep an eye on safety settings.
My own experience playing Adopt Me! is a great example of what makes Roblox so special. I went in expecting a basic pet-simulator for kids, but I ended up genuinely impressed by how deep the trading economy and house-building mechanics actually were. Later on, messing around with Roblox Studio myself really opened my eyes. Typing out a few lines of code and seeing a platform move exactly how I wanted it to was a huge rush. It proved to me that Roblox isn't just a toy—it's a legit educational tool.
When you look at the big picture, Roblox is a total game-changer that redefines what a gaming platform can be. It definitely has some rough edges when it comes to inconsistent game quality and community safety, but the creative and social benefits easily outweigh the cons. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who loves gaming, hanging out with friends online, or wants to dip their toes into game development. It’s a wildly fun, constantly evolving universe that easily earns a solid four out of five stars.

I. Love. Roblox 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💗💗💗💗💗💗💓💓💓💓💓💓💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💕💕💕💕💕💕💕❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The game looks boring and stupid.

GTA is much better for kids 😂

This and Minecraft are complete and utter shite.

I downloaded it and didn’t understand why it was such a hyped up game I was super confused

I'm so glad I grew up playing videogames in the 90s.
