This to me on a surface level this seems totally fine, however I can't help to feel conflicted when that money is being spent on some of the more "predatory" games like gachas, however I'm not sure if it's really too different from kids spending their money on pokemon cards either. Do you feel different about those or would you say it's the same thing?
There’s nothing to say it was predatory games. Roblox is a platform with a vast number of games from unaffiliated developers.
i mean they're pretty affiliated, they develop games that only work on their platform and get paid by Roblox directly.
The developers themselves are anyone who wants to make and publish games is my point, and unaffiliated with own another. And those developers are free to build and monetize games however they want. Just like other closed-ecosystem (e.g. iOS) game devs.
Oh yeah I should have clarified my post wasn't necessarily aimed at Roblox but rather generally speaking.
