Creator Store: Buy and Sell Plug-Ins with Real-World Currency

roblox could literally post an announcement tomorrow saying “we’re now going to limit you to one place per account and also charge a dollar every time you want to open studio” and the comments will still be filled with “Finally! I’ve been waiting ages for this update! This is just what the platform needed!”
roblox sees systems that work completely fine and feels the need to completely change them for the worse in every way.
plugin developers will now earn less money because like half their customer base will be completely unable to purchase their plugins, game developers now won’t be able to get plugins easily either because they’re below 18 or just don’t have enough money to spend over five entire dollars for not very well made plugins
roblox is a platform where amateur indie game developers get to easily make massively multiplayer games, and that’s what makes it great. but roblox refuses to acknowledge this and treats it instead as the next unreal engine or unity or something like their userbase is all professional indie developers or game studios.
when are we as roblox’s userbase and developers going to stop accepting these mostly negative changes that we didn’t ask for? when are we going to give roblox the wakeup call they need?
if this update gets applied to literally anything else (and let’s be real, knowing roblox they will) i might just quit entirely because at this point it isn’t worth dealing with some billion dollar corporation who only cares about their shareholders. why deal with roblox when you can get an engine made by people who actually bother to listen to what their community wants?
how is roblox not bankrupt yet?
