did you know? the pressure's raveyard was made FOR the haunt, but when it was revealed it was a costume contest, they just quickly cobbled together a map to take screenshots in this is the sign they put ingame: "Welcome to our Haunt event entry. Use the settings in the top left corner to adjust the scenery to your liking, audio, atmosphere, music, and crowds. Use the shop menu at the bottom of the screen to design a costume, then take a picture using the ROBLOX capture tool. You will then be able to submit that costume into The Haunt costume content once it goes live later today. We made the entire Raveyard for nothing. This is the event. Sorry." i feel SO bad for them and all the other devs that made stuff for events only to be twisted around and told its just "take screenshot get free accessory"
Worst part yet, apparently they got insulted from their core player base. In addition to roblox not communicating with them, them making a game mode for no reason, and the hate the their game mode got, they won't make any more special events like this again

(Hi , I'm the artist for the thumbnails of Scary Sushi lol) In all honesty , yeah -- The Haunt was pretty poorly made and done. The enviroment and building is extremely well-done and such a piece of art , but the event itself is quite disappointing. I don't have much else to say but yeah , Roblox indeed made The Haunt probably the worst event. (For now..) From that note aside however , I find your commentary videos quite entertaining! I love the editing too , along with the little characters you have with you. I love it when video content creators have these little funny characters to add more fun to the video.
In my opinion, this event was a huge flop, it felt so rushed, buggy, and horrible. It was so rushed that the portals to the games won’t work . If this is how the events are going forward, I am not looking forward to another Roblox event💀
this is information from one of the devs from one of the games involved they were notified a week in advance and it was very very very rushed plus the map they include looks good (except for the random holes, but we dont talk about that right?) but is unfortunately you couldve beat the event on the first day by just glitching through the thin walls this was not qa tested at all lol

1x1x1x1 He found the perfect method so that no one can beat him. He created his own avatar contest in the worst way possible so that people would get bored and stop. He placed 5 skeleton fragments all over the map so that no one would find his secret passage. Then he transformed into the headless knight so that no one would suspect that it was him. But everything went wrong because the items were easily obtained by attracting everyone. Everyone found the secrets and went to the boss fight. In the end, 1x1x1x1 placed a clone of himself so that he wouldn't be caught and would defeat the players. But the clone was stupid and jealous, and when he looked at the avatars, he would take damage. In the end, he was defeated. 1x1x1x1 ended up living in a rental in Xique-Xique, Bahia.
As a HEAVY lover for Pressure, I’m pissed they wasted the creators time. It’s obvious it’s not an event pressure made for Halloween, they made it for the Haunt. It’s aggravating that time and effort was put into a costume contest instead of the actual game because the developers believed it was actually a game event.
Roblox, please think of an original event name. We've got The Games, The Classic, The Hunt, The Haunt.. what's next, The Action? ..with that being said STAR MAN PLEASE NOTICE M-
This is the result of focusing on Investors, AI, and Money. Roblox, you flopped so hard, not rock bottom, but cataclysmically abominable for everyone. At this moment on, we don't expect something good for the Christmas event and future events anymore. You failed us for the last time. No more
i feel like this event is not an event, it literally feels like a public test, what better way to stress test the new screenshot feature than to make millions of childrens take pictures for free items
4:04 1. just going to note that no it wasnt a popularity contest because finding someone popular was literally like finding a needle in a hay stack 2. Ive noticed that f2p player didnt realised that there were games that were part of the event had free avatar catalog (Adopt Me), i personally used adopt me for this entire event to make my avatars
That's what I thought, there's absolutely no point in putting anything else if the only thing that counts is the photoshoot. From the item collection to a literally exclusive Halloween map, as much as they are different, they have something in common, they were made for absolutely nothing.
@ one theory is that this event was made to boost robloxs new feature "captures" which could then be advertised as this big new thing & appealing investors
10:41 About DOORS, I think they did said they won't participate much in The Haunt so they didn't make anything for it aside from a modifier as their Halloween special.
As a person affected by the milton hurricane, im relieved that the event was a nothing burger considering the 1 week timeframe, but at the same time im dissapointed that this is a nothing burger
I don't think the developers of the games didn't knew the event was going to be a costume contest. They did know about it, i know that because slap battles didn't do anything for the event itself, only the normal halloween event we get every october adding a new glove that is only obtainable during halloween.
@@Yami-mugoni613they thought it was going to be the same format again so they created an entire map but then roblox told them it was going to be a costume contest
@@killercat_wastaken They got blueballed so hard and received unjust criticism from people calling the event rushed. Roblox is super incompetent and untrustworthy
How is Slap Battle's unrelated Halloween event being turned into something for the Haunt proof it wasn't a last minute thing most didn't know? If anything it's just more proof for that theory.
@@dominicballinger6536 the halloween update started almost a week before the haunt event. Also, they said from the start of october there would be only 2 weeks of halloween event instead of the 1 month. So they were already prepared to do the halloween event or at least preparing.
very well put together video, I hadn't even realised it was nearly an hour long until I was at the closing thoughts. My attention span is horrid and I cannot sit through most videos about 20 minutes long because I get sick of it. This held my attention and kept me thoroughly entertained whilst doing nothing-work on animal crossing. Wonderful editing, the script flows well and is actually coherent and entertaining enough to be a very informative and interesting watch
i have a better idea for the haunt. the players go into games with a camera and take pictures of ghosts hidden in the games. i know that idea sucks but its still better than a costume contest.
As somebody who has gone through all 22 games (excluding dress to impress and royale high) I'm going to share my personal opinion and thoughts on this event For starters, i didn't really enjoy most games like pet simulator 99, horse life, dragon adventures, and survive the killer. Because they literally had no quest. As for the decent ones, here are some that were slightly enjoyable, that being mm2, a dusty trip, scary sushi, blair, and slap battles. I can go through all, but we'd be here all day if i were to do it. In general, this whole event just sucked, the only games that were good were Pressure, Piggy, Doors, and that's all. As someone who has went through virtually the entire event i can confirm that this is if not roblox's WORST event.
mm2 dont even have a event. its recycled.. you prob liked it becuz you played already too much.. piggy is also overrated as fuck im sorry man.. piggy became shitty very early but people started defending it becuz it has 'lore' while it really dont. its just a path with nothing in the end. piggy is also just granny being fr rn. minitoon should let the game as a joke game and abandoned it. its not worth the point
@@imafailure (2013 player) I checked out Piggy to see what the hype was about and got bored really quick. I trudged on to see if it got better, because great Roblox games can have rough starts, but it never got better. It was a competitive memorisation game, the puzzles remind me of novice Roblox horror maps. I can see a glimmer of fun, but... It's not good.
If you're confused about the story in dti Lana quest ,you can check game theory's video . Its two months old though Edit: Game theory now have a new video about dti
@@Kloyster2010it’s not entirely theories! Just most of the lore content was in limited time events which is why people make these theory/lore videos to combine all the information together
We treated the Hunt & Classic too harshly like holy crap bruh. The games featured are damn good too, we could've gotten the event just like The Hunt with proper badges and something to go after. But nah it's just one big ass Dress to Impress💀.
@@BosnoirSheesh, at least in The Hunt and in The Classic you needed to play the games and complete objectives so you could finish the event. In The Haunt you literally just need to join a game, take a screenshot and hope that you will at least get in top 50%
The Next Event Will Just Be A Plain Box With A Paid UGC In The Middle Called "The Box" Or SomeThing And Way Overhype It. That's The Way Roblox Is Going. I Feel Bad For The Developers That Had No Idea What The Event Was For, Like The Pressure Devs And The Piggy Devs. Roblox Needs To Play The Events In Games To Make Sure They Are Feasible For An Event Next Time, And Add Actual Gameplay, And Give Developers Actual Development Time, And Tell The Developers What The Event Is About, An-... You Get The Point, There's A Lot To Change. The Hubs Have Been Looking Better, They Just Need To Be Functional. You Can't Just Sit Pressure's Quest And Keys' ""Quest"" Next To EachOther And Say That They're In The Same Event. The Worst Thing The Haunt Did Was Not Including Arsenal... And... All Of The Other Things The Haunt Did Wrong. (Like Including Toilet Tower Defense Again, Genuinely Roblox Stop With The BrainRot!)
I really feel bad for ALL the devs literally almost all of them didn’t know what was going on and got screwed over except dress to impress because that’s their whole stichk of dressing up
a dusty trip is very, very inspired by the long drive a game literally designed to be annoying and 'realistic' also the reason your car fucked up is you put the wrong fuel in the engine
I knew the creator of the toilet tower defense because I was a playtester for one of his previous games (I’m forgetting the name since it’s been awhile). it was a pretty high quality undertale fangame sadly the game suddenly stopped getting dev support and was deleted shortly after (even though it had only been a month of the game being out of beta). He did mention that he was working on a toilet tower defense game while I was still working for him. Now that I think of it he probably wasn’t the best game dev since he never gave me or the other playtesters any details about updates and even forbade us from discussing the location of secret items in the playtester channel
He just not that kind of people that give valid opinions for me tho. Like the classic a dusty trip is a 2??? While blade ball is the highest rated in that video.
this event was boring , the "boss"is the worst one I ever see and fight , even 1x1x1 was interesting , but this , this is the worst one I ever do , roblox is just trowing shit and make items 5 times expensive , and they're not even limited , I dont know what to say about rblx , is just so boring and horrible and I hear people love it , I love hallow events but this is the first time that I eventually hate to be halloween also the only good thing that I was wanting so much to be on the event itself was normal elevator , sadly was not included but at least the dev of the game make an upd of it wich looks good on ma opinion , I missed to play it ngl
The classic's 1x1x1x1 wasn't a boss where you suffered from massive fps drops, in The Huant this happens in the boss fight and I literally played at about 10 or 20 fps, even so it was the most ridiculously easy boss I've ever beaten, it was so easy that even a player with just 1 fps could defeat this horrible boss.
At this point, can we collectively just agree its JUSTIFIED to have the lowest of the seven layers of hell expectation when the name of the next roblox event goes by "THE ___" Did roblox ran out of actual event designers to think of ANY, ANY names that arent this bland ? Are we going to accept this as the name formula going forward ? (I hope not)
I’m not trying to sound like a hater but I am really sad that DTI didn’t get a higher rating. The animations and storyline were top notch and there was even a song for the whole lore too. I just felt like you were too hard on these games plus some games aren’t part of the Haunt itself, MM2, Horse Life and Royale High are also pretty good examples.
Yeah. It could have been a great event, but, I think Roblox only used it to test out their capture feature. And the claim of “avatar costume contest” went out the door on day 1. As people soon realised they could screenshot anything. And I feel more bad that Roblox made 25 games participate, only for people to take screenshots in. At least some had Halloween stuff already going on. But, I feel most bad for Pressure. Pressure made a whole ass new game mode only to get screwed over. Like, half the screenshots weren’t even avatars. The boss fight was shit, the items were, okay, games were just there for screenshots, but, the hub carried the entire event.
I've literally stopped bothering with Roblox events, it's gone from actual events to just cash grabs and advertising for games. Not to mention most the games weren't even horror oriented and if there even was anything to play it was horribly cooperated with the event hosts and did playing the games even matter??
29:20 The “Haunt” event they made isn’t actually for the haunt. The festival thing was for the Halloween event so it’s the same case with adopt me. And check the store again if you can, because I’m telling ya, you’re missing a whole crap ton of things. First, you see exclusive toys? They sell a crap ton of them…but why do they cost N/A? It’s because they sell it as real life toys and made by a funding Israel genocide company. “Oh just buying one or two doesn’t hurt” Yes they do. Those toys cost quite a lot for just some toys you probably wouldn’t touch and let it rot. The store main page is a huge mess with everything on there and there’s less actual Halloween sections than the stupid exclusive toys. The actual good halloween items also costs a lot. Even if some people say you can earn 10k a day, I have to go to school, and I’m in 8th grade.
Can’t wait for you to cover the event for December or prob November. December I’m guessing called “The Holiday” 49:59 “prepare for the hardest boss battle in your-“ *mario party minigame 56:39 not Starism almost summoning Strasm’s inner Satan
Sad that these events were more popular than RB Battles Season 3 but probably still got more hate than it. Again, Roblox Just hire RB Battles team (Or any capable person) to make these events or just give them the Budget to make the event...
I tryharded in The Hunt because of the sheer hype, but realized the despair of these new events halfway through The Classic. Didn’t even bother with this and The Games. I just want Roblox to actually realize what everyone wants
okay fine i'll use proper capitalization I straight up noped out of this Roblox event because I'm too much of a coward to deal with horror games, I'm sorry that's just who I am. I barely was courageous enough to get through the horror games in the Hunt, so having to do an entire event themed around horror was just too much for me. Which is a shame, I liked making my own tier lists for these events. Thanks for making this video by the way, it helps to see at least someone else's perspective of someone who played the event to get at least a feel for it. And after watching this and getting an idea of the quality of the Haunt... Yeah I can't believe I'm saying this, as I never thought I would, but I'd rather be playing the Hunt again. Even with the excess amount of games in the Hunt, I'd rather take a ton games with events that are easy to pick up and complete in a reasonable amount of time over games that are so brutally difficult and not beginner-friendly at all, especially games where progression in their events are so blatantly reliant on robux purchases. Speaking of which, the elephant in the room. I'm glad I skipped the Haunt, not just because all the games were horror-themed, but now with the added knowledge that the actual games were pointless to complete. And I would've thrown an absolute fit if I figured this out in the middle of doing the Haunt, given that so many of the events that may not have been intended for the Haunt were absurdly difficult. I nearly lost my mind in the Games from how difficult many of the events were in that event, as well as how many of them required cooperation with other players, so it's a good thing I didn't even bother with the Haunt. Alright, enough negative energy. Great video, Starism! Like always, it was nice to hear about your opinions of the event's games edited in a well-made fashion. At the very least, the ratings of the games in the Haunt seemed to be on average better than the Games, although how much of that is influenced by some of the events not even being intended for the Haunt I still am not sure. Doesn't matter even then, since yeah, the Haunt seemed to be just a costume/photography contest at heart. Pressure's The Raveyard's moment in particular made me really sad, since it looked incredible with tons of effort put behind it, only for it to not matter for the Haunt at all. Even the developers recognized it when they put up that sign, stating that they "made the entire Raveyard for nothing". At least the Dress to Impress segment was funny, being the literal embodiment of the Gameplay vs Lore meme. Overall, I feel sorry that the Haunt sounded like it was an absolute chore to get through. Even though I didn't play it, I still really wanted this event to be good, to at least know that it was a fun event for everyone else and we can have confirmation that the events are moving in a right direction. But now, it feels like Roblox's major events have only gone downhill when starting with the Hunt, and I have bad vibes that this pattern could continue with the next event somehow being even worse... But hey, no sense being pessimistic. Maybe, just maybe Roblox will take this as a learning experience (just like they could've with the Hunt... and the Classic... and the Games...) and the next major event will surprise us and be pretty decent! Eh, if wishes were horses. Once again, thanks for the video Starism, can't wait for what you have planned in the future!
You know, it could’ve been somewhat cool if they followed the same pattern and made this avatar thing just a side quest. But it’s Roblox that we’re talking about, of course they wouldn’t do that
The dragon adventure's world is meant for dragons at least level 10. I have zero clue why Sonar decided to put it in, because even HORSE LIFE was more beginner friendly. They just tacked on an extra quest too, giving a badge that does nothing
As a long time Slap Battles player, I completely agree with how horrible they did the haunt event. I managed to get the badge before the bugs started popping up, but man they really need to balance the difficulty so people that are just trying to get the badge can get it and regular sb players have it hard enough for a challenge.
A lot of the games you played, DTI, Horse Life, Royale high etc didnt create anything for the haunt so these are just pre-existing halloween events already in the game
the dress to impress event was really only made to expand the 'lana lore' which has been going on since April so i get that it doesn't really make much sense to a normal player.
42:29 as The Mimic fan in Halloween Trials most of us properly know how the 3 part trials flow as Mimic Fans since the beginning of the evolution of the mimic franchise (Me i joined the mimic since august 2022 lockdown) To comment on that the first trial was definitely quite easy the keys where just in the same places i would recommend using the map layout in order to help you pass the trial or get some tutorials by videos. Second trial was just to light up candles in every 4 rounds and try not to die from Taiyo and lastly originally its supposed to be lighting up pumpkins also in every 4 rounds avoid the Kabochas at all cost however now its gonna be getting ingredients that needed to make a potion to kill the kabochas. P.s. not very quite interested to the haunt event pretty much just me getting ugc items and only joined the mimic Halloween trial event thats all.
...To be honest, the concept of taking gameplay pictures was nice for me. (Though 98% Dress to Impress pics where TERRIBLE! A lot of them were with that horrible fire background that didn't let you see a single thing. Along that, there were the people that just took pictures of the monster's jumpscares instead of themselves doing something.)
the video has way to much shouting and raging, not calming down and impatience, and i totallay agree with you. THe haunt being some stupid costume contest of all things is so basic. it sucks
Honestly I gave up on this the moment I tried to vote one day and I quite literally could not do so and I just kinda chose not to go back to it. No idea why, didn't have the patience for it.
I never thought of how confusing and weird the dti quest would be for people who don't play dti or atleast know the lore, lol but SERIOUSLY HOW IS THAT QUEST SO GOOD?! also funny to think that starism now has 4 items in dti and will probaby never use them
with slap battles "wait a long time to get back" thing sound like that one really low quality tower defense games event where if you lose, you wait like 10 or less hours to play the event again and supposedly to prevent grinding.
This event goes on a heavy 3rd place for worst events and I say that heavily cuz I’m not a hard person to impress you can just pull a cup and ball trick and fail it and I’ll still be impressed
OHHOHO BOY this is going to be a good one because this event SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS SO MUCH! i literally didn't even have to play any of the games this time. the objective of The Haunt is literally NOT to play The Haunt as all you do is vote on screenshots AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND that is it! oh and i guess there's a boss fight too with some pretty jazzy boss music. but still that is ALL you do this event never let Roblox cook on another of these "The Thing" events ever again im gonna go rewatch Spooky Month until this drops
Yeah, the game was really bad tbh. Even the boss took me like 2 mins to complete They could have made it a bit more interesting... if this is where roblox events are going, the Christmas one (assuming there's gonna be one) is probably gonna be some big snowball fight or something.

But they forget to apply glue
Literal shit
@@minifyesnumberonehaterhoping the object they threw was glue
@@atonical_ftw next event: The Glue
i launched this event and immediately thought “starism is going to go absolutely insane”
I don't think the developers of the games didn't knew the event was going to be a costume contest. They did know about it, i know that because slap battles didn't do anything for the event itself, only the normal halloween event we get every october adding a new glove that is only obtainable during halloween.
But why were the pressure team so mad then
@@Yami-mugoni613they thought it was going to be the same format again so they created an entire map but then roblox told them it was going to be a costume contest
@@killercat_wastaken They got blueballed so hard and received unjust criticism from people calling the event rushed. Roblox is super incompetent and untrustworthy
How is Slap Battle's unrelated Halloween event being turned into something for the Haunt proof it wasn't a last minute thing most didn't know? If anything it's just more proof for that theory.
@@dominicballinger6536 the halloween update started almost a week before the haunt event.
Also, they said from the start of october there would be only 2 weeks of halloween event instead of the 1 month. So they were already prepared to do the halloween event or at least preparing.
very well put together video, I hadn't even realised it was nearly an hour long until I was at the closing thoughts. My attention span is horrid and I cannot sit through most videos about 20 minutes long because I get sick of it. This held my attention and kept me thoroughly entertained whilst doing nothing-work on animal crossing. Wonderful editing, the script flows well and is actually coherent and entertaining enough to be a very informative and interesting watch
i have a better idea for the haunt. the players go into games with a camera and take pictures of ghosts hidden in the games.
i know that idea sucks but its still better than a costume contest.
27:44 they explained a lot to the lore to this event going to the past to the present by the way this is actually the lore to dress to impress.
Never thought Dti would ever have lore, but tbh, I prefer CleanMeanBeans take on the whole ‘fashion show horror’ take.
You should rank every roblox event. Especially for the older ones id love tk hear your opinions on the older events like the egg hunts
As somebody who has gone through all 22 games (excluding dress to impress and royale high) I'm going to share my personal opinion and thoughts on this event
For starters, i didn't really enjoy most games like pet simulator 99, horse life, dragon adventures, and survive the killer. Because they literally had no quest.
As for the decent ones, here are some that were slightly enjoyable, that being mm2, a dusty trip, scary sushi, blair, and slap battles.
I can go through all, but we'd be here all day if i were to do it. In general, this whole event just sucked, the only games that were good were Pressure, Piggy, Doors, and that's all. As someone who has went through virtually the entire event i can confirm that this is if not roblox's WORST event.
Mm2 didn’t even have an event
What about tds?
dragon adventures has a quest wdym? its in the halloween quests category
mm2 dont even have a event. its recycled.. you prob liked it becuz you played already too much.. piggy is also overrated as fuck im sorry man.. piggy became shitty very early but people started defending it becuz it has 'lore' while it really dont. its just a path with nothing in the end. piggy is also just granny being fr rn. minitoon should let the game as a joke game and abandoned it. its not worth the point
@@imafailure (2013 player) I checked out Piggy to see what the hype was about and got bored really quick. I trudged on to see if it got better, because great Roblox games can have rough starts, but it never got better. It was a competitive memorisation game, the puzzles remind me of novice Roblox horror maps.
I can see a glimmer of fun, but... It's not good.
If you're confused about the story in dti Lana quest ,you can check game theory's video . Its two months old though
Edit: Game theory now have a new video about dti
ehh, stories are good when its in the game themselves, not being told by it in a theory video :\ but that's just my opinion
@@Kloyster2010 eh i physically crumble apart and die from how pink dti is
they wanna do events they should probably just make an event place for it
@@Kloyster2010honestly it was pretty obvious, the only confusing part was the time travel thing cause when did dti have time travel
@@Kloyster2010it’s not entirely theories! Just most of the lore content was in limited time events which is why people make these theory/lore videos to combine all the information together
@@Kloyster2010they are in the game though...? how do u think game theory made the video 😭
We treated the Hunt & Classic too harshly like holy crap bruh.
The games featured are damn good too, we could've gotten the event just like The Hunt with proper badges and something to go after. But nah it's just one big ass Dress to Impress💀.
dress to impress is really overrated. also the game feels like they Wanted to go with a dev hunt but cut mid way trough like what the fuck
Please don't, the hunt and the classic are still garbage. The last good event was egghunt 2018
@@Bosnoir egg hunt? *smokes blunt and raises cowboy hat* I haven’t heard that name in years.
@@Bosnoir halloween 2018 was great bro
@@BosnoirSheesh, at least in The Hunt and in The Classic you needed to play the games and complete objectives so you could finish the event. In The Haunt you literally just need to join a game, take a screenshot and hope that you will at least get in top 50%
this will be the shortest roblox event video starism will ever make
edit: oh boy was i wrong
i mean...it's shorter than the previous three, i guess? sub-one hour and all...
The video isn't even out but i alredy know that bro is going roast the whole entire event
The Next Event Will Just Be A Plain Box With A Paid UGC In The Middle Called "The Box" Or SomeThing And Way Overhype It. That's The Way Roblox Is Going.
I Feel Bad For The Developers That Had No Idea What The Event Was For, Like The Pressure Devs And The Piggy Devs. Roblox Needs To Play The Events In Games To Make Sure They Are Feasible For An Event Next Time, And Add Actual Gameplay, And Give Developers Actual Development Time, And Tell The Developers What The Event Is About, An-... You Get The Point, There's A Lot To Change. The Hubs Have Been Looking Better, They Just Need To Be Functional.
You Can't Just Sit Pressure's Quest And Keys' ""Quest"" Next To EachOther And Say That They're In The Same Event.
The Worst Thing The Haunt Did Was Not Including Arsenal... And... All Of The Other Things The Haunt Did Wrong. (Like Including Toilet Tower Defense Again, Genuinely Roblox Stop With The BrainRot!)
ps99 having the same score as Doors is a bit generous
I really feel bad for ALL the devs literally almost all of them didn’t know what was going on and got screwed over except dress to impress because that’s their whole stichk of dressing up
literally the only good part about this event was playing chess in the lobby, and i dont think literally anyone knew about that
I knew about that
Yea I just decided to skip out on this event, especially after I learned about why the Raveyard was developed initially :(
a dusty trip is very, very inspired by the long drive
a game literally designed to be annoying and 'realistic'
also the reason your car fucked up is you put the wrong fuel in the engine
13:15 Statism's therapist bills after recording this: 📈📈📈📈
To be honest, I mostly play all the Roblox events, but I didn’t play this time because I knew it was gonna suck
I just hope that the next event ( the Christmas one) will be better
pressure, bss, piggy, tds are the only games i find good at making proper events
We got a dusty trip too. They made good event too. But starism hate the game for some reason
@@dattom1113 the new dev has been ruining it ever since he got ownership
@@minute0420 the games events is still good tho. Even if the new dev is money hungry
i have a feeling this won't be the bottom of the barrel, because it seems like roblox will find a way to make the next one worse
16:50 roblox devs actually caring for the game quality
Difficulty: impossible
I knew the creator of the toilet tower defense because I was a playtester for one of his previous games (I’m forgetting the name since it’s been awhile). it was a pretty high quality undertale fangame sadly the game suddenly stopped getting dev support and was deleted shortly after (even though it had only been a month of the game being out of beta). He did mention that he was working on a toilet tower defense game while I was still working for him. Now that I think of it he probably wasn’t the best game dev since he never gave me or the other playtesters any details about updates and even forbade us from discussing the location of secret items in the playtester channel
The Dress to impress event is based on previous lore for the game.. however to players who don't know the lore it's probably very confusing
Of course this is a horrible year for Roblox. Events, drama, new games, lots of other stuff except for some things.
How do you get strasm to hate your game😭🙏
He is there bc toilet tower defense is in the event
Make the game super p2w, annoying, scamming and preferably childish with skibidi toilets.
@@Anomalocaris-ow3pustrasm likes skibidi toilet tho-
Make it a line simulator
He just not that kind of people that give valid opinions for me tho. Like the classic a dusty trip is a 2??? While blade ball is the highest rated in that video.
this was by far THE WORST event they could have evr done, atleast with others, i consider them a meh or bad. but this is just pure crap
this event was boring , the "boss"is the worst one I ever see and fight , even 1x1x1 was interesting , but this , this is the worst one I ever do , roblox is just trowing shit and make items 5 times expensive , and they're not even limited , I dont know what to say about rblx , is just so boring and horrible
and I hear people love it , I love hallow events but this is the first time that I eventually hate to be halloween
also the only good thing that I was wanting so much to be on the event itself was normal elevator , sadly was not included but at least the dev of the game make an upd of it wich looks good on ma opinion , I missed to play it ngl
The classic's 1x1x1x1 wasn't a boss where you suffered from massive fps drops, in The Huant this happens in the boss fight and I literally played at about 10 or 20 fps, even so it was the most ridiculously easy boss I've ever beaten, it was so easy that even a player with just 1 fps could defeat this horrible boss.
The d2i lore is Gigi's lore when she met the allegations.
This Event is so much worse than the Metaverse Champions event.
(Guy behind me who doesn't know what Metaverse Champions is: The What?)
Exactly.
At this point, can we collectively just agree its JUSTIFIED to have the lowest of the seven layers of hell expectation when the name of the next roblox event goes by "THE ___"
Did roblox ran out of actual event designers to think of ANY, ANY names that arent this bland ? Are we going to accept this as the name formula going forward ? (I hope not)
I’m not trying to sound like a hater but I am really sad that DTI didn’t get a higher rating. The animations and storyline were top notch and there was even a song for the whole lore too. I just felt like you were too hard on these games plus some games aren’t part of the Haunt itself, MM2, Horse Life and Royale High are also pretty good examples.
Yeah, same.. I thought Piggy was also very good too.
Pet sim 99 has a cut the line event…
I haven't seen someone ralking about the pressure portal calling the game with the wrong name (the mimic) in the start of the haunt event
Yeah. It could have been a great event, but, I think Roblox only used it to test out their capture feature. And the claim of “avatar costume contest” went out the door on day 1. As people soon realised they could screenshot anything. And I feel more bad that Roblox made 25 games participate, only for people to take screenshots in.
At least some had Halloween stuff already going on. But, I feel most bad for Pressure. Pressure made a whole ass new game mode only to get screwed over. Like, half the screenshots weren’t even avatars.
The boss fight was shit, the items were, okay, games were just there for screenshots, but, the hub carried the entire event.
6:02 i just got hit with the most insane whiplash i LOVE yokai watch
I've literally stopped bothering with Roblox events, it's gone from actual events to just cash grabs and advertising for games. Not to mention most the games weren't even horror oriented and if there even was anything to play it was horribly cooperated with the event hosts and did playing the games even matter??
0:46 ah yes i love it when starism said its event time and evented all over.
Hi guys
bro what
Hello I am the third person here : D
Hiiiiiiiiiiii and the first like
hi there Strasm you little Skibidi Toilet loving gremlin! how are you doing?
@starsm-skibidi what do think of the haunt?
strasm
29:20 The “Haunt” event they made isn’t actually for the haunt. The festival thing was for the Halloween event so it’s the same case with adopt me. And check the store again if you can, because I’m telling ya, you’re missing a whole crap ton of things. First, you see exclusive toys? They sell a crap ton of them…but why do they cost N/A? It’s because they sell it as real life toys and made by a funding Israel genocide company. “Oh just buying one or two doesn’t hurt” Yes they do. Those toys cost quite a lot for just some toys you probably wouldn’t touch and let it rot. The store main page is a huge mess with everything on there and there’s less actual Halloween sections than the stupid exclusive toys. The actual good halloween items also costs a lot. Even if some people say you can earn 10k a day, I have to go to school, and I’m in 8th grade.
When I'm in the worst event championship and my enemy is the haunt...
The haunt was so underwhelming i didnt even bother to play it
Can’t wait for you to cover the event for December or prob November. December I’m guessing called “The Holiday”
49:59 “prepare for the hardest boss battle in your-“ *mario party minigame
56:39 not Starism almost summoning Strasm’s inner Satan
Sad that these events were more popular than RB Battles Season 3 but probably still got more hate than it. Again, Roblox Just hire RB Battles team (Or any capable person) to make these events or just give them the Budget to make the event...
I tryharded in The Hunt because of the sheer hype, but realized the despair of these new events halfway through The Classic. Didn’t even bother with this and The Games. I just want Roblox to actually realize what everyone wants
Nice video starism. Cant wait for "the gifting"
the name makes sense the haunt like ghosts they're invisible like haunt's content invisible
i know why roblox didnt tell the devs what the event would be. if they did the devs wouldnt partake because theyd have no motivation
okay fine i'll use proper capitalization
I straight up noped out of this Roblox event because I'm too much of a coward to deal with horror games, I'm sorry that's just who I am. I barely was courageous enough to get through the horror games in the Hunt, so having to do an entire event themed around horror was just too much for me. Which is a shame, I liked making my own tier lists for these events. Thanks for making this video by the way, it helps to see at least someone else's perspective of someone who played the event to get at least a feel for it.
And after watching this and getting an idea of the quality of the Haunt...
Yeah I can't believe I'm saying this, as I never thought I would, but I'd rather be playing the Hunt again.
Even with the excess amount of games in the Hunt, I'd rather take a ton games with events that are easy to pick up and complete in a reasonable amount of time over games that are so brutally difficult and not beginner-friendly at all, especially games where progression in their events are so blatantly reliant on robux purchases.
Speaking of which, the elephant in the room. I'm glad I skipped the Haunt, not just because all the games were horror-themed, but now with the added knowledge that the actual games were pointless to complete. And I would've thrown an absolute fit if I figured this out in the middle of doing the Haunt, given that so many of the events that may not have been intended for the Haunt were absurdly difficult. I nearly lost my mind in the Games from how difficult many of the events were in that event, as well as how many of them required cooperation with other players, so it's a good thing I didn't even bother with the Haunt.
Alright, enough negative energy. Great video, Starism! Like always, it was nice to hear about your opinions of the event's games edited in a well-made fashion. At the very least, the ratings of the games in the Haunt seemed to be on average better than the Games, although how much of that is influenced by some of the events not even being intended for the Haunt I still am not sure. Doesn't matter even then, since yeah, the Haunt seemed to be just a costume/photography contest at heart.
Pressure's The Raveyard's moment in particular made me really sad, since it looked incredible with tons of effort put behind it, only for it to not matter for the Haunt at all. Even the developers recognized it when they put up that sign, stating that they "made the entire Raveyard for nothing".
At least the Dress to Impress segment was funny, being the literal embodiment of the Gameplay vs Lore meme.
Overall, I feel sorry that the Haunt sounded like it was an absolute chore to get through. Even though I didn't play it, I still really wanted this event to be good, to at least know that it was a fun event for everyone else and we can have confirmation that the events are moving in a right direction. But now, it feels like Roblox's major events have only gone downhill when starting with the Hunt, and I have bad vibes that this pattern could continue with the next event somehow being even worse...
But hey, no sense being pessimistic. Maybe, just maybe Roblox will take this as a learning experience (just like they could've with the Hunt... and the Classic... and the Games...) and the next major event will surprise us and be pretty decent! Eh, if wishes were horses.
Once again, thanks for the video Starism, can't wait for what you have planned in the future!
You know, it could’ve been somewhat cool if they followed the same pattern and made this avatar thing just a side quest. But it’s Roblox that we’re talking about, of course they wouldn’t do that
The dragon adventure's world is meant for dragons at least level 10. I have zero clue why Sonar decided to put it in, because even HORSE LIFE was more beginner friendly. They just tacked on an extra quest too, giving a badge that does nothing
As a long time Slap Battles player, I completely agree with how horrible they did the haunt event. I managed to get the badge before the bugs started popping up, but man they really need to balance the difficulty so people that are just trying to get the badge can get it and regular sb players have it hard enough for a challenge.
A lot of the games you played, DTI, Horse Life, Royale high etc didnt create anything for the haunt so these are just pre-existing halloween events already in the game
the dress to impress event was really only made to expand the 'lana lore' which has been going on since April so i get that it doesn't really make much sense to a normal player.
the only game they had that i ACTUALLY liked was doors and the only reason i didnt play pressure is im still terrified of that game-
42:29
as The Mimic fan in Halloween Trials most of us properly know how the 3 part trials flow as Mimic Fans since the beginning of the evolution of the mimic franchise (Me i joined the mimic since august 2022 lockdown)
To comment on that the first trial was definitely quite easy the keys where just in the same places i would recommend using the map layout in order to help you pass the trial or get some tutorials by videos. Second trial was just to light up candles in every 4 rounds and try not to die from Taiyo and lastly originally its supposed to be lighting up pumpkins also in every 4 rounds avoid the Kabochas at all cost however now its gonna be getting ingredients that needed to make a potion to kill the kabochas.
P.s. not very quite interested to the haunt event pretty much just me getting ugc items and only joined the mimic Halloween trial event thats all.
...To be honest, the concept of taking gameplay pictures was nice for me.
(Though 98% Dress to Impress pics where TERRIBLE! A lot of them were with that horrible fire background that didn't let you see a single thing. Along that, there were the people that just took pictures of the monster's jumpscares instead of themselves doing something.)
The doors event is a fun little spin but I understand your rating because it’s not that much after 2 runs.
the video has way to much shouting and raging, not calming down and impatience, and i totallay agree with you. THe haunt being some stupid costume contest of all things is so basic. it sucks
Honestly I gave up on this the moment I tried to vote one day and I quite literally could not do so and I just kinda chose not to go back to it. No idea why, didn't have the patience for it.
For your first attempt in a dusty trip your car wouldn't start because you poured diesel into the gas tank. Causing the car to stall
Yo kai watch music this is peak
Based off this video, dress to impress is pulling a hello neighbor???
i put the avatar of roblox in creatures and villans and they both got top 50 percent (or the "your posts" feature isnt working properly)
I didn't even participate or play any games in this event yet I got all the items😭 so the games were useless
I never thought of how confusing and weird the dti quest would be for people who don't play dti or atleast know the lore, lol but SERIOUSLY HOW IS THAT QUEST SO GOOD?!
also funny to think that starism now has 4 items in dti and will probaby never use them
Starism: Says skibidi
Starsm every time: _SKIIBIDI TOOILET :O_
with slap battles "wait a long time to get back" thing sound like that one really low quality tower defense games event where if you lose, you wait like 10 or less hours to play the event again and supposedly to prevent grinding.
This event goes on a heavy 3rd place for worst events and I say that heavily cuz I’m not a hard person to impress you can just pull a cup and ball trick and fail it and I’ll still be impressed
0:36 music pls
Last Chance from fnf vs sonic.exe rerun, lol
OHHOHO BOY this is going to be a good one because this event SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS SO MUCH! i literally didn't even have to play any of the games this time. the objective of The Haunt is literally NOT to play The Haunt as all you do is vote on screenshots AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND that is it! oh and i guess there's a boss fight too with some pretty jazzy boss music. but still that is ALL you do this event
never let Roblox cook on another of these "The Thing" events ever again
im gonna go rewatch Spooky Month until this drops
Yeah, the game was really bad tbh. Even the boss took me like 2 mins to complete
They could have made it a bit more interesting... if this is where roblox events are going, the Christmas one (assuming there's gonna be one) is probably gonna be some big snowball fight or something.
Underrated Creator. 100% Underrated.
how the hell did i predict the name
Welp, This means farewell to another Starism “season”. See you on Season 3c!
waiting for strasm season 1
We need to pray for bro, not because he completed every game for nothing but because he was forced to play Toilet Tower Defense again.
