>earn the virtual currency ‘Robux’ to purchase items
not sure about this one. my kids have been playing Roblox and Minecraft for almost two years and AFAIK the only way to get 'Robux' and 'Minecoins' is by buying them with real-world money
creative and social advantages aside, they are both ultimately microtransaction based moneymakers and both offer monthly subscriptions. that said, you don't need to spend money to enjoy or progress, unlike some other games where you perpetually pay through the nose to be second best

- musicale 6y ago> they are both ultimately microtransaction based moneymakers This is what turns me off about both platforms, Roblox especially. Roblox needs a way to simply disable all microtransactions.
