That’s what I mean as this is the first step, they keep going, they’re never going back
Seriously?!
the first step was years ago. This is just the beginning of the end
also people who wear classic stuff do not get banned. That’s misinformation

like I said, ensh##tification is a natural process for all online platforms under capitalism. it became apparent this was going to happen to Roblox years ago, but they are beginning to restrict features from consumers, which is when a company officially starts to consume itself. See here: Twitter
If they were going to shove it down our throats they wouldn’t ban, that would just lead to even further consequences for them, they would just remove classic faces all together.
Right, I guess the only thing we can do is stay here and watch, we can’t do anything about it, just like we can’t do anything about the sun rising and setting

And folks, don’t mistake this as a bunch of old farts saying “muh nostalgia!”
This simply isn’t the whole truth here. People just care about how the platform is being treated, and if it’s being treated like a cash cow, then of course people will make a big stink about it. Some of us grew up with Roblox, and some of us have gotten older and wiser - wise enough to see things for what they truly are. Of course people who know better will outwardly contest this.
Our bitterness towards these updates are not unwarranted, they are not from a minority, and there will be consequences for the continued treatment the platform receives from its proprietors.

Don’t worry, it was already planned, planning to move onto good ol’ Unreal Engine 5
Always has been
Anyway, I think I won’t reply anymore, I don’t want to get in trouble and I’ll probably just sit here and watch

yessir
unreal is looking AMAZING nowadays
I think that’s going to be hard, considering the broader development community (their life-blood), and the corporation itself is parasitic. Some people do not want to break the community bonds (or quit working on projects, especially if they make a living off of it), even if the corporation consistently disrespects the community like that.
Watch. Just watch. Roblox will either make another hollow promise to work with the community on these changes and raise everyone’s hopes up, or outrage will dwindle as we get new features on the website or engine (This is not to diss the hardworking engineers working on them. They most likely have no say in this). Rinse and repeat; it’s an endless cycle, sadly.
This is the most out of touch post I have ever seen from Roblox and that’s saying a lot

This entire topic just shows how they are cutting their head off.
95% of the replies are in massive disapproval, and boy oh boy is this disapproval harsh. This shows that they would take money over community. Roblox is officially just another figure in Corporate America, and there is no denying it.
Its hard to watch it, but its the simple truth. You might just want to accept. Where you move from this point is your choice.

A cycle I’ve wizened to, which is why I no longer develop for this platform.
Don’t say we didn’t warn nobody before things went south.

This was a joke. Still, I’m mad at Roblox and theres a really small chance they might.
Well, we must say one thing:
This update won’t (or at least, shouldn’t) affect first person games, or games with custom characters, so for now, we’re kinda safe, we could simply get the decal of the old faces (Toolbox) and put them on an R6 rig when they’ll get legacied

But should this effort be placed exclusively on the developer?
I personally don’t feel that way, and I’m sure you do, too.

Yes, yes I will not hide that I do, but that seems like the only choice we’re left with if this gets rolled out, it’s better than nothing we must say, but this update is still what it is:
Trash
Btw, I agree with your post and would like it if I could, but I gotta wait 10 hours
