      Web3 is when you ape a Web2 concept (usually a user-generated content-driven platform) and staple NFTs and Crypto to it. It's a clunky monetization system in search of a concept it can glom onto like micro-purchases did to games. Pray the parasite never finds a compatible host.

In this case, since you're not paying anything, there is no reason why you can't delete said account. Alternatively, if they don't release the game in the EU, then they don't need to comply with GDPR regulations either. But since I'm sure they allow from the EU, it might be worth filing a complaint against them. GDPR has killed better games then them.

    I'm a developer in Roblox and honestly everything shown in the video is so hilariously different that if you removed any mention of Roblox or Minecraft I would've never considered this as anything remotely similar to a competitor
    The editor interface looks so basic and rudimentary that I can tell even if you got the hang of it you'd still face constant annoyances when trying to do anything; looking at some tutorials the camera movement seems to be a weird mesh between modelling and game engine softwares making it really confusing

    Some random 16 year old back then could create a pirate ship duel game where all players on both crews could do all kinds of stuff like steer, shoot cannons, board the other ship, and blow up their gunpowder barrels. The damage was simulated using Roblox's physics engine, which while janky, made it unique, as holes blown into your ship were like actual real holes that affected structural integrity and could be used as entry ways by the enemy team.

  • @raetreader

    As an amateur game dev on Roblox, I will say that Roblox can be kinda...strict with what's allowed on the platform, I guess? Sometimes fleshing out a specific vision can be an uphill battle with all of their very unspecific guidelines and odd decisions. But that can only be an issue when that kind of leeway in terms of creativity is given to the creator in the first place. Also I have experienced what I can only describe as interactive art in some Roblox games. There are so many talented and phenomenal people on the site who create masterpieces that can even rival triple-A games in my personal opinion. So while I have my specific gripes with Roblox, I would rather stay there than move to Shill City.

    Hey, so I've been a roblox dev for the last 4 years, the game maker engine nowadays is even better than it was when I started deving for fun (Roblox is what sparked that game developer love in my heart, and it has shaped my life entirely, it's because of it that I began gaining such a love for making games) and this sandbox is not even a joke, because a joke would be funny. (Although I do suppose seeing dumb corporations waste money on virtual land is pretty funny)
    Even with it's limitations and controversies, roblox is still not even comparable to Sandbox, roblox allows for such a freedom in it's game engine that makes many games and styles be possible, all for free. Tower defense, Horror, Role-playing games, FPS games, and anything in between that the community can make. The front page of the Roblox website has only a few games that are popular, but if you dig Enough, you'll find a huge amount of loyal roblox fans who'll push the engine to it's absolute limits and go even further. Cars and tanks with working suspension, aerodynamics systems for airplanes and helicopters, realistic models and textures, everything.
    Sandbox's level designer is barely functional, and I'm surprised some people actually managed to make a functioning game out of it, it'll never be able to be anything close to Roblox's
    Like I said before, Roblox is what helped spark the developer inside me, and I'm sure it has done the same thing for many other devs in the Roblox community, even those who have moved on from the game. I can't state enough how much of a gap there is between the Sandbox and Roblox. It's not even like a cliff wide gap, or an ocean wide gap, it's like Roblox is on Earth and the sandbox is in a whole different solar system.
    TLDR; The sandbox sucks, but you didn't need me to tell you that did you?

    • @NorthStarBlue1
      @NorthStarBlue1 10 месяцев назад +20

      What gets me about the Sandbox is that it's built in Unity, so it's trying to be a game engine inside another game engine which inherently runs you into two sets of restrictions. Even if you are able to push the limits of the Sandbox's level maker it's still walled in by Unity's limits, which leave very little avenues for real creativity. It's a bit like being told you can create an entire living space however you like, but you're restricted to the spare bedroom of an already built house.
      The whole metaverse/Web3 adventure really does highlight just how skewed the corporate world's vision of post-pandemic society was in 2021, where everyone was supposed to have fully embraced virtual socialization and abandoned real world gatherings even after it was safe to do so again. All the attempts to cash in on every aspect of it ultimately fell flat in the most hilarious ways.

    As someone with a lot of roblox gametime since I was a kid; although it's become corporate and profit driven, there's an immense amount of well crafted, custom-code heavy games.
    Boxing, Dodgeball, PayDay, Restaurant, Obstacle course, etc. There's so many variation of games available on Roblox, and it's genuinely amazing to see developers to figure these things out.
    Sandbox was made from a corporate standpoint from the get-go. There is no passion, only the drive to make money.

      I think true "no code" is different than Blueprints, which are more like visual scripting. But you can build entire games using only blueprints, and plenty of people do that. But I agree, No code engines like Scratch or Construct are kind of a waste of time if you're above the age of 13 because at that point you'd do better just learning how to code, even if it takes a bit longer to get started

      I haven't used UE blueprints, but I've heard that it's really good at creating nice C++ code. Back in the day when I started programming, I learned quickly to not touch any sort of code generation tool because they invariably made a complete mess of things one had to go back and clean up oneself, but nowadays tools like UE blueprints create just as good, if not better, code than the average programmer can.

    roblox is a gaming engine that allows for relatively infinite freedom. you can write custom code, import models from both other players and custom made models made in blender and other modeling softwares, make custom GUIs, complex lighting engines, etc etc etc, all while players are allowed to have their own unique characters interacting with the world with real time player interactions where monetizing your game does not take hundreds of hundreds of micro- or macrotransactions.
    i've played roblox since 2007, and while it does have its flaws, it is a wonderful platform that i cannot seem to give up. it is so full of life and character, and im glad it's stayed alive and relevant for as long as it has.
    that being said, the sandbox feels like someone came into my house and shit on my bed, shot my dog, handed me a coyote, and said, "i did you a favor. check out this better dog i got you."

    Is it wrong the only time i see the "Virtual Land" argument really work was in Second Life? For those who never played it, in second life you can rent land with the L$ (the game's currency). And this rental scaled in cost based on how large of a parcel you wanted, and how much processing power you wanted dedicated to it. So yes you effectively rented server space, and the cost scaled with how popular the area is (note you can just teleport, but large facilities like clubs that drew a lot of users, caused more congestion on the server, thus higher rents to have people spread out). Pretty often you could find people sub leasing the land too.
    See one person owning a chunk for like a personal house might be kinda costly, so it wasn't uncommon for someone to develop an apartment or neighborhood and then rent out the houses. The result is people could get cheaper houses with more strict limits but had to follow rules of the locale (ie they might enforce dress codes when out on the road, but you were free to do whatever in your house). And from my experience most people got along under these (for instance rent prices stayed manageable) because it was very easy to take your shit and move elsewhere.
    Also its worth noting you could always cash out your L$ for real money. So if you ran a successful club or store front making custom avatars, clothes and such you could just convert that into money you could use in real life.

    It’s sad to hear this is actually related to the mobile app. That was honestly quite a good time back in the day despite it being a mobile game with microtransactions.
    I had wondered if they were connected at first, but it seemed separate, and I was glad to see the original app wouldn’t be dragged through the mud. It was disappointing to find out it is actually connected…

    god the camera in this game hurts to look at, especially in that platforming section. idk if i’m just more used to 2d bc that’s what i’ve been playing lately or if it really is just That Bad. and don’t even get me started on that postprocessing nightmare…

      @@jauwnon second watch, i think my problem is with the cave platforming section in that challenge game. the seemingly random zooms and snaps the camera had to do bc of the geometry are throwing me. its weird bc other games like the isometric one are fine, and its not like i haven’t played 3d platformers with arguably worse-behaving cameras (sm64ds, looking at you). maybe the art style has something to do with it? not sure but it’s just. eugh

    I find it fascinating how much money was poured into the whole web3 landscape and how little results it brought.

      You know what pisses me off the most?
      All this wasted, burnt money spent on vanity projects and scams, they could've spent it ANYWHERE, and I mean ANYWHERE else, and it would've come in more handy. The sheer unfathomable amount of money these idiots have torched could've gone to so many things (charity organisations, research groups, what name you) and they spent it on this.
      This shit that had the writing on the wall the day it was announced.
