Same (I’m useless at finishing personal projects).
2011: Joined and spent hours playing Welcome to ROBLOX Build and Sandbox (among many games) until 2013.
2013: Started learning to script. My interest was piqued in some other areas as well.
2014: Got basic understanding of Lua, was learning some other stuff too, like GFX with Paint Dot Net (is there a way to escape links?).
2016: Started to understand Lua very well; started learning other languages. Had decent GFX skills. Learning video editing and other basic things.
2017: Hundreds of unfinished projects, but a lot to look forward to. I’ve found myself a couple of good development teams and am confident in my skills. I could easily take on well-paying scripting or graphic design work here.
2018: School is ramping up, and with some new program I’m going into next year, I can continue to further myself and my skills (that have originated from Roblox) with this so called ‘Project Based Learning’ to get NCEA credits.
I could consider my days wasted, but I’ve learnt a lot. I’m prepared for the future; I can learn on my own; I can collaborate and organise.
Through it all, I have been making friends and having new experiences. It is truly great what something as … underestimated as Roblox can do.
