People do this because it is the most fun thing to do.
- Jensson 5y agoMakes sense as a hobby. Hope people aren't investing anything on these projects.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoPeople do this because they think Roblox looks like shit and they can do better.
- cyber_kinetist 5y agoRoblox looks like shit for a reason though. Because of that, the game has insanely low system requirements, since most of the players are kids and only have access to potato-level hardware without good GPUs.
- whywhywhywhy 5y agoIt's not even, Minecraft has low system requirements and although it has a low-tech aesthetic it's a beautiful game. League of Legends runs on a potato and looks fine. Think the roughness and how everything is a hodgepodge appeals to kids in some way. It's more like the Flash era where you visit Kongregate, NewGrounds etc and although some of the games looked bad they were still fun and the rougher graphic style sometimes added to the charm.
- munificent 5y agoThe article talks about this explicitly. It's a valuable design choice. When you have a graphical ceiling it means that even the best, most skilled Roblox games don't look better than the amateurish games kids first makes. That in turn means that a kids' first experience making a Roblox game feels like "my game looks like a real game!". That sensation is priceless.
