    I would never date someone who plays Roblox. That company employs child labour using loopholes in the labour regulations. They get kids designing games for them to sell microtransations to other kids. It should be illegal.

    Kids should be playing games without dark patterns, like Deep Rock Galactic or Stardew Valley. My baby cousin likes Plague Inc and Noita, those are good games for a kid to play.

      You realize how much of a class indicator this and the rest of your comment is, right? Roblox runs in a browser, none of the poor kids who’ve played Roblox recognize what you’re saying — they’re just poor and don’t have options.

      Morals aren’t really valuable if all they do is act as big waving signs saying ‘I don’t like the poors’.

        it’s not. my nephews that play it come from househoulds with 300K+ incomes.

        poor kids are playing xbox because they can’t afford expensive gaming PCs.

          Yeah my girlfriend was straight up homeless and was able to play roblox on her family laptop — so my anecdote counteracts yours. Go again, we shall conjure every anecdote in existence in order to get to the bottom of whether or not poor people play free to play games.

          Oh I guess I just answered the debate in that last sentence. Nevertheless, let us circle this drain together — friend.
