Even though I quit Roblox, I still check Roblox’s changes and games. I have seen that Front page is getting more childish yet I enjoy old clickbaity games before. I have grown up, and found old front page less childish and more over on building games. Now, our front page contains less than 1% (if not 5%) of creativity and imagination.

They removed very influential features such as tickets, guests, genres filter, forums, custom audio, and player points (kind of). Player points in my opinion are fun and best for testing gaming skills in Roblox. I rememered when I farmed it overnight to get number 2 on the leaderboards. These influential features make up Roblox, yet they removed them. Now no one cares about it anymore and the originality of Roblox. Roblox were probably teaching you how to be skilled at gaming, how to trade, how to be creative. And now, they are not teaching you those things anymore.

No one cares about the Roblox logo. This doesn’t even empower the new generation of Roblox. Most of the games aren’t even changing their logos for their originality. New Roblox logo is less designed and lazier but neater. In most cases, logos of games are changed to make it more designed, neater, better but this doesn’t come to Roblox. The logo in my opinion is worse than before.

Oh my gosh, these ninja turtles. Scambots are evolving and getting smarter, surpassing the “i am not a robot” captcha. I don’t know whether Roblox is lazy or Roblox is defenseless. They roam over your friend requests and group walls meaning they are definitely everywhere. These scammers are no joke, they could evolve slowly and can both hack and scam (sorry if i am exaggerating). I felt like Roblox should be acting upon scammers instead of updates and money. I also forgot that they could also roam into your G-mail account, pretending to be a apart from Roblox team. I saw this news from one of the videos of Nathorix.

Nathorix said “Roblox is getting more boring and less fun” And I really remembered it. I think it is true in my opinion. As I have said before, roblox is getting more childish and less creative. Roblox new trends make me more uncomfortable. Fat legs, simulator games and 1 legged. These trends are super weird and I am sorry if this isn’t connected to Roblox being less fun so lets go to the topic sentence. Mainly, Roblox games that are appropriately for older ages are getting less common. Phantom forces is the most common example that fits in the category. Obbies are for all ages and simple. Before, I saw plenty of it in the front page. I apologize for being a nostalgia fanboy but really, obbies are fun so are tycoons. They can be challenging just like shadow run and custom like bhopping. But these games are no longer popular. What are the last game i have played? Phantom forces, tower battles and black magic.

I didn’t quit because of motivation, I quit because Roblox giving me negative impacts in my life. It’s not powering imagination anymore. It’s not powering creativity and imagination. It’s now just focused on games, less on community, less on creativity, just on games. I can tell you why it is less focused on community it is because it rarely listen to the community. Roblox is so addictive to me that i quit Roblox and told to my friends the truth. Roblox changed into game-focused and lost originality.

The real horror genre is now very rare. Hello slender and murder mystery are one of the last popular horror games that exist. Murder mystery is sometimes scary but it is more on maps and strategy. This is also one of the reasons why it is more childish. It is ok if you say that horror genre isn’t dead yet. But based on my experience, Roblox horror games were scary and common. Since Roblox is now more advanced, why is Roblox lacking realistic scary games for older people. Roblox should be in all ages instead of 5 - 15. I felt like Roblox is lowering the age limit that is why I putted it on 5 - 15 instead of 8 - 18. Roblox have me good times but I would rather to perish Roblox into my good childhood list.

Roblox is now more on roleplay and “all”. Where are the good old explosions blasting thousands of bricks besides from destruction simulator, where are the “real” building games, where are the horror games, where are the minigames such as ripull’s minigames. New Roblox isn’t an improvement. New Roblox isn’t “powering imagination”. What has Roblox become?

I expressed all my opinions, thoughts and experiences in a 5 year Roblox journey in this one thread. I really apologize for being a nostalgic fanboy, i just cannot accept the changes.

I think identity theft and before the dawn are decent horror games
