Asking this because if it were possible, we could make it happen.

Big Questions

  1. Is it possible to make on Roblox?
  2. Would it be popular and do well if done right?
  3. Would it be supported by Roblox themselves?
  4. How to make it unique?
  5. Opinions about the idea of Game Franchises on Roblox

That would not be easily feasible.
Here are the possible issues:

  1. Children are not good enough at legislative knowledges.
    Many underages are not familiar enough with laws, therefore it’s rather easy for them to break the contracts, either accidentally or not. They might not understand the conditions well enough either, making them vulnerable to frauds.

  2. Roblox moderation isn’t stable enough.
    Roblox is a platform that cares about copyright laws, however it cannot moderate fair and efficient enough, with repetitive false bans, while ignoring many actual issues.
    It would be too difficult for such a weak system to decide whether if the franchises are legit or fake.

  3. Roblox ToS does not yet deal with personal financial issues.
    Roblox disapproves scamming, but they don’t care about financial disputes that doesn’t impact their income directly.

Finally my opinion is that Roblox isn’t ready for franchisees, unless they can change their moderation and digital finance system.
