hey did you know Souls RNG consistently manages to rake in over 100,000 players every day what the hell in case you don't know what I'm talking about Roblox the biggest children's gaming platform of all time has bad games and I call it a children's gaming platform because unfortunately that's just what it is they've been pushing out updates in an attempt to separate their older audience from their younger audience but it's still just filled with bright colorful garbage that makes the Discover tab look like someone vomited all over your screen and the thing is these types of games are promoted religiously like please find me a good well-known game on Roblox that isn't doors or Tower Defense simulator please and the popularity of some games just goes to show how gambling and other addiction practices are a little more common than you think there is no game here there's there's no game you just it's an AFK simulator okay why am I rambling about this after all I'm probably not its target audience so why should I bother right well the thing is I grew up with Roblox and it's absolutely depressing seeing it in the state that it's in it's kind of like meeting a childhood friend for the first time in years only to see that they've become a drug addict but um you don't miss old Roblox you miss being happy what man shut your [ __ ] ass [Music] Roblox tragically suffered a fate just like anything ever becoming corporate do you think the CEO of Roblox is currently aware that one of the most popular games on the platform is skibbidy toilet Tower Defense probably not he shouldn't be anyway does it make him money hell yeah and whilst this may seem like the 200th video talking about how roblox's games are mid this platform it just means a lot to me but it's become such a competitive market that it's kind of sad seeing a lot of good games have under 1,000 concurrent players whilst garbage like Brook Haven roleplay has 500,000 play what how did we get here oh oh this sucks oh this sucks so bad and this has 400,000 players yeah no way oh an infant child in the items section let's go my problem isn't that there aren't good games on Roblox because I've seen a lot of cool stuff being made on this platform no my problem is just the unfortunate truth Roblox stopped caring Roblox stopped caring about shedding light on good quality projects made for fun and instead resorted to making an algorithm fairly similar to that of a social media platform that usually pushes out games that have high player engagement and also make Roblox a lot of money and whilst this isn't a wrong thing to do it's also why most popular games you'll be seeing on the front page are littered with microtransactions at every step and even with playtime Rewards that are given to you if you spend a certain amount of time in a game but you know what's even worse Roblox stopped caring about the blocks like look at this what is this dude and also who is this like the point is why would anyone want an avatar that looks realistic I thought the whole point was that Roblox was a combination of Lego and Minecraft but now it's just generic social game platform uhoh I'm trying to play Roblox not Ro life I'll be honest with you Roblox avatars used to look way worse back in the day you'd be getting all the ladies if he pulled up with the fire and water Adidas pants but now it's just weird could someone explain to me what's so interesting about not having a head it's probably a joke about how most Roblox players are brain dead or something but now I'm going off topic Roblox has always been a platform with simple games that provide replayability but in a way people are taking that to the Limit by testing out just how simp of a game they can get away with look I despise Souls RNG just as much as the next YouTuber complaining about it but I can't help but consider it a statement towards Roblox which shows how bad it has become in case some of you are out of the loop and don't know what Souls RNG is you want to know what you do in this game you roll for random chances that's it I'm not kidding there's no more to this there's not some hidden secret gameplay or objective no you just roll for random words with with random Rarities that have some crazy visual effects when we equip them and you know what the funny part is there's also an auto roll feature so calling this a game is a bit of an overstatement when the only thing you do is click a button and even that can be done automatically I'm fully convinced this experience was initially made as a joke by taking an aspect many Roblox games were hated on for gambling and just being like hey what if we made a game that is literally just gambling and nothing else and then it proceeded to get hundreds of thousands of players every day Roblox doesn't care about this stupid game whatsoever because of a policy that draws a very thin line between what's considered gambling and what isn't on its platform apparently if it doesn't contain themes reminiscent of a casino or unsure odds like betting on two players that fight each other with real money for example then anything that has a predetermined chance convey to the player is fair game technically this would be all right if some of the titles in this game didn't have chance is like 1 in 250 million is that really not gambling because I think it is because I think it is because I think it is whoa whoa whoa whoa you know after talking so negatively about Roblox the entire video I think it's time I move on to the positives um there there are not any positives well kind of I guess a good aspect that shows that Roblox hasn't fully gone down the brain rot path yet is the fact that some old games are still popular today take murder mystery 2 for example a game made in 2014 in this game there are three roles innocent sheriff and murderer there's only one sheriff and one murderer and the rest of the players are innocent the murderer has to kill everybody and the sheriff has to shoot the killer pretty simple stuff and that's why it's so played nowadays it ties in with what I said earlier about games that provide replayability it's also pretty fun with friends since you either try and deceive them into thinking you're innocent or you make the entire server Hate You by teaming up with them you know who you are and to spice things up you can also buy some neat perks you can use as the Killer and wait what's that W it's lot boxes no you've got to be [ __ ] kidding me man wait there's lots of other characters if you don't like the pixie sorcerer no there aren't they're all just the same with different costumes Roblox games usually fall into two main categories uninspired garbage played by children that's not worth your time or fairly creative projects usually inspired by a major IP it's gone to a point where Roblox has become a free alternative to many good games out there but as long as they don't look or feel too similar to the game they're based on or don't just get a copyright stricken straight up they're good to go you don't have money to play lethal company just play brutal company on Roblox you want a free alternative to the long drive play a Dusty trip it's the same thing but on Roblox hell bedw Wars on Roblox has more players than bedw Wars on literally any Minecraft server and that's actually pretty sad you want the next Bots from Gary's Mod to be turned into an actual multiplayer miname play evade what's the point in making a solid creative game when you can just make a free ripoff of an already existing idea and even if you manage to make a creative passion project you're competing against [ __ ] like Souls RNG Aura RNG player RNG Z's RNG Zenith RNG skibbidy RNG G need I say more the whole platform operates on the saying if it ain't broke don't fix it as I said it's always been a children's gaming platform so there will always be stuff like easy Obby or Escape running head just there but for the somewhat older audience that wants to try out more fun games they'll quickly realize that they are not boosted by the algorithm whatsoever I've had nights where I'll just be goofing around with friends on Roblox until we get hit with an immense sense of dread when we real realiz that even though there are hundreds of games on the Discover page none of them are worth playing Roblox albeit they still care about some aspect of the games that get popular doesn't care enough about promoting actual quality stuff long story short Roblox is limited yes there's technically unlimited potential to make whatever you want in it but go ahead and tell me the last time you played a single player Story game on Roblox or just a game with fun in-depth mechanics that was popular there's no problem with partially limiting yourself to the biggest audience out there children but as someone who grew up with this platform and as a former young in myself I expected there to be more actually good games just sitting on the front page like all right I get it Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication or whatever but you can't tell me that clicking when a ball gets near you is Peak gameplay but then again I just finished my second playthrough of a game called Ultra kill and the game play looks something like this so maybe I'm being a little picky also that's a video for another time back to the topic at hand though a fairly simple solution to this problem is just adding a category called underrated gems that would include games with small but consistent player bases and high ratings there are probably a lot of tweaks that have to be done to get good games and not underrated gems like Jeep ride into toilet in that category but for what it's worth it would be helpful for people looking for games to play that don't necessarily look like YouTube kids also telling me to just Google underrated Roblox games does not work you will not find nor good nor underrated games on these lists and I'm also too lazy to find them on Tik Tok ooh be crushed by a speeding wall what's this oo maybe I am getting too old for this so in conclusion uh skibby toilet games need to be deleted also tell me your favorite game and I will I will do something about it I got to go now I got a thing to do it's been an honor yeah well I'll give you one more chance you aren't dead to me just yet [Music]
