Thanks for the new feature this roblox is very cool
However I was thinking if we could have an experience player number below rather than just a friend playing this game /Rating percentage of the game

I’m afraid videos cannot be played easily, as the video is on YouTube, not Roblox’s platform.

Videos can just be embedded (aka played and used) using code
That’s how videos can be played and used onto things like Google Slides, Websites, etc.

An okay improvement for the modern Home page, making the old Discover page almost useless now.

Will it be on the website? If it will be, it will mess up my custom CSS.

I wonder how many of these were games that use the large canvas space on thumbnails to advertise false promises of free items/rewards if you play. That’s really not possible on an icon. Just a thought.

Not particularly, from my personal experience I’ve seen plenty of “free $$$” icons on my feed, sometimes even making it on to front page sorts.
The release of thumbnail-based discovery won’t increase the quantity of these games either. It doesn’t make sense; if the preview is just plain text promising a false reward anyways, the thumbnail space won’t be used any differently.

I had this update on my home page for a while, when you hover over an experience the player count shows up in bottom right corner of the thumbnail.

The old Discover page has been useless for a while now. Most of the categories are essentially the same thing, such as “Most Earned”, “Popular Worldwide”, “Top Rated”, etc.
I’m actually starting to really enjoy the new Discover page. The scrollable Recommendations page actually works somewhat well to give me games that match my interests, even when they have 0-50 players. This will greatly help newer developers who don’t have an established user base.

Roblox history aside, I genuinely like this change. A 16:9 experience allows game designers to do things such as list update information in the thumbnail instead of in the title, which is incredibly helpful when the only other way to boost CCU is to start a community around your game because Roblox’s Updates still aren’t consistent and group shouts aren’t on the homepage anymore.

Why can’t there be a separate thing like the icon where we can upload this new thumbnail?
The norm of thumbnails shown on the game page of a specific game being for gameplay is now gone with this change. If they are not separate, people will treat thumbnails like icons: the goal of grabbing attention rather than actually showing gameplay.
And, if there is to be both thumbnails and icons showed, as the OP depicts, doesn’t that lead to a question of how my game will be shown? Icon or thumbnail?
Deceptive marketing is an issue either way, but I feel the thumbnail icon thing should be on its own. Thoughts? @ivy_poisond

Not exactly related, but I find it extremely funny how much Fortnite is trying to mimic the Roblox website/app experience. If you showed this to someone who didn’t know what Fortnite or Roblox was, they probably wouldn’t be able to tell.
They got every detail down, even to the CCU count.

Probably would give a little more color with a void background once again.

Oh this looks neat! I think I like this update.
Similar ratio to video thumbnails pretty much.
Gives a bit extra room for expression and more populated scenes.
Could even use an screenshot of your game as thumbnail because now it will actually fit the image dimensions!
