the idea of Roblox was very great, if it just wasn't marketed towards kids, and the moderation wasn't as bad, it would've been much better.

The idea of letting kids make video games for other kids was great IMO. The idea that it had be financialized with micro transactions that resulted in a mass child labor scheme was that problem.

the Roblox studio editor is a little too complicated for kids to make interesting games. scratch is way better at doing that. (scratch is also better because there's no way to spend any money) Roblox with a block editor instead of Lua and if you could only spend money on cosmetics would be perfect

or, if kids could choose to use a block editor so that more experienced programmers could still make complex games
