“To say that Gen Z and Gen Alpha are into live-service games is only half the story. These games offer a social space for players to hang out and be creative. For them, it’s not about winning in a competitive online shooting match but about expressing themselves and exploring in a virtual sandbox.” “Plus, just because Gen Z and Gen Alpha not playing those $70 titles now doesn’t mean they won’t in the future. Yguado believes that those players will “graduate” from Roblox and other sandbox titles, although they probably won’t be leaving Roblox forever. Games won’t be going away just because Roblox is around. You just have to meet new players where they are and on their own terms.”

Firewatch was meant to spark a subgenre but its influence didn’t spread. A decade on, we ask why Roblox and Minecraft are more

As the corporation is not doing enough to police its content, the game would be banned for offenses against the state. Touch grass, kids.

they have a monopoly on video game distribution People who claim that Valve has a monopoly on PC games are already wrong but you claim that they have a monopoly on video game distribution in general is outrageously false. The 2022 overall video game revenue was a bit over US$180Bn. The PC game revenue was US$45Bn. In 2023, all of Steam was responsible for US$8.6Bn in revenue. The biggest PC games (Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox) aren’t even on Steam and neither are any console or phone games. Criticize Valve for actual things to criticize them for. Don’t spread misinformation.

Roblox really is the lowest of the low.

Given how many features use generative AI to build user-generated content I would say mark this moment. There is a future of slop-centric Roblox stuff everywhere and this may well be where it starts. I’m not as mad about that as most will be, but… yeah, I’ve mentioned a couple of times around here how weird it is that nobody is really bringing it up so far.

Oof. Sorry but you are absolutely not up to date with grimdank memeology. The eldar woman is Yvraine from craftworld Biel-Tan, she is a prophet for the new eldar goddess Ynnead and goes around the universe trying to find new followers. She’s in a sect, in short. She stumbles upon Belisarius Cawl and helps him revive Roblox Gullible (nobody says Guilliman, you fool). From that simple thing, people have gotten quite creative in terms of dreaming a relationship between Yvraine and Rubik’s Guacamole. Yes many rule34 depravations have naturally followed. To sum up, in a world where every major hero from 30k has more or less disappeared, the romance of Yvraine and Robust Guitarist is the only chance to repopulate the galaxy with hope and beautiful babies

A coworker recently showed a picture of Minecraft in a meeting and confidently said it was Roblox. I wanted correct him but I didn’t want to be that guy.

My eldest lad is growing up too fast - he’s got lots of hobbies, one of which needs a lot of fitness so I try and get out with him once a week for a half hour run - partly to introduce him to cardio training but mainly to just get some time alone with him before he realises his dad is an arsehole. It’s great. Admittedly, he’s just “Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox can we go to the shop Roblox Roblox” but it’s time with him to talk to me about whatever he wants and it’s time that I absolutely adore. I hope when (if) he chooses to have kids, he’ll look back and think “hey that was some decent dad time I had outside the house”. I’m also secretly hoping that if he’s ever going through a rough time in life that he’s keeping to himself and we’re still out banging miles into the tarmac, then somewhere between “what’s your favourite Grow Your Garden pet?” and “I just got a badge in Doors for using a crucifix on door 69 while getting chased by rush”, there’ll be a little breadcrumb or hint at a drama that we can talk about and ease his mental health just a tiny bit. Who knows. A dad can hope.

I was there at the peak Macromedia Flash days. Shit was so fun to play around in, simple enough a 15 year old could work out how to make great animations and interactions but powerful enough to make whole games in and it was the experimentation that led to the creativity. Kids these days have roblox to play with which looks like it’s got the same type of creative tools so that experimentation is still going on in bedrooms and libraries but it’s just being swamped by so much slop.

To be fair, this is an example of internet culture which has either remained relevant or become relevant again through irony, because “MTW roblox user speaking in MSE about interracial cuckold porn” is a joke that could have been made literally today and not been out of place culturally. It’s not just the ideas in this case but also the specific form they’re expressed in.
