About

Roblox’s mission is to bring the world together through play. We enable anyone to imagine, create, and have fun with friends as they explore millions of immersive 3D experiences, all built by a global community of developers. Roblox is powered by a global community of over two million developers who produce their own immersive multiplayer experiences each month using Roblox Studio, our intuitive desktop design tool. Any experience imaginable can be created on Roblox. Roblox is ranked as one of the top online entertainment platforms for audiences under the age of 18 based on average monthly visits and time spent (Comscore). Our popularity is driven purely by the community with millions of people signing up through word of mouth every month. Be creative and show off your unique style! Customize your avatar with tons of hats, shirts, faces, gear, and more. With an ever-expanding catalog of items, there’s no limit to the looks you can create.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Roblox Studio is feature-rich, yet easy to get started with. There are tons of assets, created by either Roblox or other users, to use in your games. Creating your own games in Roblox Studio is extremely fun and addictive. As Roblox is a social platform with millions of users, it is well suited for multiplayer experiences and it is easy to publish your games for others to play. Documentation is alright and if you get puzzled sometimes, you can almost always find someone who has had the same problem at the DevForum. The rate at which new features are released is amazing! Roblox boasts some pretty advanced and nifty technology such as support for VR and motion capturing from videos.
  • You can make your experiences on Roblox for free using the Lua language. There are a lot of experiences on Roblox that you can play, some free and some paid using Robux or Premium.

Cons

  • Support is driven by so called AI, which should rather be called artificial *un*intelligence as it fails to understand your issues like a 100% of the time and keeps repeating the same automated answers over and over again, which is not of any help at all. Roblox do not seem to care much about bugs. Some bugs that would be easy to fix, remain unresolved for months and even years. Lua is a bit of an odd language in my opinion. If I had got to choose I would have gone with some more "normal" language like C# or Javascript. Also, the script editor integrated in Roblox Studio lacks some great features found in VS Code, such as multicaret editing to mention one. As Roblox is mostly targeted to kids, there are some restrictions limiting your creative freedom. Games like Leisure Suite Larry or GTA would have been banned on Roblox. There are some issues with the GUI, like that the stacking of panels is reset when restarting Studio. Roblox servers are often down, which seems to have gotten worse during the past year. The most annoying thing is that when Roblox is down, so is Roblox Studio and you can't develop anything during the downtime.
  • If you have an account under 13 (if the birthday of the account is under 13 years), you can not say numbers, which is annoying.
