Axios reporter Stephen Totilo has added that a representative for Roblox tells him that Roblox was downloaded more than 10 million times on PlayStation since it launched a week ago.

Sounds like rookie numbers compared to PC.

It’s like Dreams but people actually use it.

He said something stupid with no merit, so I made up my own stupid comment with no merit.

Also even if 83% of these switched it'd only be like 8.3 million, has nothing to do with those stats you posted.

I’ve had more fun in phantom forces (Roblox game) then I ever did in COD. Pretty much the only thing I use it for on Xbox.

That's a pretty big number I guess. 8.2 million of the 200+ million monthly active users Roblox enjoys comes out to around 4% overall. Not too bad for a week. It's good that it's more accessible to people by being available on PS4 and PS5.

No Roblox, what is you doing? The market is SaTuRaTeD!!

I despise casual gaming. I don't care what anyone thinks of me, after saying that. Hate this shit!

 

[Beechos]

People without any kids 10 and under don't know how big roblox really is. It's pretty much their equivalent of gta/cod/minecraft/fornite. Now imagine that player base and family buying them digital currency to spend playing it year round.

Did you play this as a kid?

 

[Thirty7ven]

Oh oh here comes MS

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Oh, you think this is casual? I beat this before it was even released in the states. It was half a cartridge with a green ribbon attached, so I could pull it out of the NA NES.
Thanks, Friday Video.

Super sad. Dreams is 10x better. People just dont like the complexity that comes with true choice.

How is Roblox casual though?

Sony's money boys after asking themselves why they were turning away Roblox money.

 

[Outlier]

I have literally NEVER seen this game in action, before.

Is it suppose to be like Second Life, but for kids or something?

I don't know shit about it, but I guess primitive games have more success than stuff that is just too complex for its own good, ie hardly anyone will really fully utilize it and many will perceive it even as deterring. Especially with Minecraft's success the writing was on the wall, while anyone diving into proper tools like Unreal and Unity, immediately aiming at paid games. Sony probably would have had more success with doing another LBP and just extend its renderer to allow more styles, add the Dreams flecks renderer, and maybe offer several tiers of tools, to not make it overwhelming.

Roblox is literally made for like 5yr old kids Is dreams something that a 5yr old would understand?

Creating levels? No not really, but is roblox creator for 5yr olds? I've not tried it.

Playing can certainly be 5yr old friendly.

Time to download it, dude. No but seriously I hate this fucking game, I only play it because I try to be a good dad and jump on when my kid wants to play together. It's not like second life, it's more like PlayStation Home+Dreams but WAY shittier.
