I can't believe we've entered an era where the "new roblox" being talked about in this video has become the old roblox that everyone is nostalgic for, and that some kids won't even remember. I am aging rapidly
Well, people will always like original version of ROBLOX better than now and the upcoming updates. But really, this is seen in every type of gaming community such as Mortal Kombat, Metal Gear Solid, Sims, etc. They always see these new games/updates and look at the bad instead of looking at the beneficial side instead. For ROBLOX most people prefer the earlier version back from 2008-2012. I didn't have a ROBLOX account back then but from watching others play it I could tell it was pretty amazing and had some potential. With potential comes sacrifice, and you have to ask yourself... "Satisfy the community or try to do beneficial updates?" I'm not saying that all ROBLOX updates are good (because they're not) but with these small updates, there is great potential. I have a feeling that these updates will lead to something greater in the future (even if they are crappy). To let those who don't understand know, I am only voicing my opinion. Feel free to add or critique it because this would make for a good discussion since ROBLOX has changed soooo much since this video was uploaded!
If you would have thought they still had those programs, hey maybe we would have it BUT. Why would a company pay for that most today players will not care about?
Yes! That would be brilliant! And ZeGamerCrew, they do still have the programs and I still have some old clients on my computer, and coming off of what stormer said, even if it was paid access, I would pay for that insatiably. And you should be able to pick what client or year you want to play. But roblox administrators are shitty and they 100% will not do that.
Old Roblox was simple, and enjoyable. It had some nice, creative, and mostly fun games, and the community was decently good. New Roblox is slightly ok, but the community is barely anymore good, and the games are all the same thing : shooting games, obbies that always change their theme every 5 seconds, etc.
Let's do a retrospective about ROBLOX: 2006: Pretty glitchy game, but very addictive 2007: Same as 2006 2008: New games came out such as Build to survive the zombies, Build your dream house, Pizza Place and Tsunami Survival 2009: Shadows got an improvement, most called as Stencil Shadows 2010: Here comes a slice of foreshadowing, with a bit of ODer games and Clickbaits, only a small bit 2011: Even more ODer games 2012:Graphics got an improvement and the GUI too 2013: Nice... 2014: Pretty.. Cool. I guess.. 2015: Still cool 2016: *Silence* 2017: *Sad violin intensifies*
Think of the bad updates as a stone, the good ones as a flower, And ROBLOX keeps adding more stones on your back than flowers, they keep doing that until you are dead.
Despite the hit or miss quality of your 2013 era videos, I must say this video is still amazing 7.5 years later, you explain in great detail the pros and cons of old Roblox without favoring to the "new" or old at the time. And you're not blindly just saying that old Roblox was perfect in ever way, in fact you admit 2008 had a fuck ton of flaws which is great, because everyone seems to love 2008 to death.
(I know this is a weird ass theory so yeah but oh well) but the reason I think people do that is they are afraid that would be flamed for being new since everyone seems to attack the newer like people who joined 2016 2017 and later than that so they kinda have to fake their veteran status so they won’t be attack (then again there are people who fake it just for attention)
2013: 2008 was better 2019: 2013 was better me: Will you guys stop finding an era of roblox to say it's better when you have probably never played in that era.
I think the best era of roblox was probally 2010-2013 Due to most games were interchangeably functional with old roblox games. Like this is when I remember crossroads used to work before roblox decided "let's make this a team deathmatch game" while fixing it... I am able to relive the old roblox via Novetus + Finobe. Honestly. 2007-2009 don't have a whole lot going for them at all. I would say are meh.
@@Parker_Lot I partially agree and disagree. One part of the roblox community like myself would want a standard lego-like builder with scripting capabilities with glitches and all. A less focus on realism and a more on the cartoonish nature of pyshics and appearance. More focused on simple building that is R and T controls in hopperbins now hidden feature. Staying away from the realism of modern roblox, while the other side is more for a technical power house, that has tons of realism, action packed coding. The third would be a more lenient roblox that is easier for developers and not make them in fear of releasing decals, hats, scripts, models, and generally more friendly for creation like the first one, but without so much strictness. I feel the only good compromise is launcher switches sadly which would basically alienate mobile / console users. I hate modern roblox's lack of feedback due to the removal of comment sections and forums. That would help me so much to improve. But thanks to modern roblox! THAT AIN'T GONNA BE EASY WITHOUT LEARNING TO CODE A SYSTEM!
If anyone remembers any the following, like this comment. Cart rides, build to survive,who killed,be crushed by a speeding wall,shoop da whoop,this is Sparta,1x1x1x1,The mobile bloxxers,Fleskhjerta,King of the hill (not the tv show), having to wear t-shirts for VIP and admin, Person299's mini games That's all I remember from 2010
I am from late 2009 and and I remember all of those except King of the hill, but let me have a word with you. YOU FORGOT " Survive INSERT Horror movie character at INSERT place "!!!!!!!
Well you know, old roblox showed that without scripting you can have a lot of fun on the places... It was just.. entertaining. Don't get me wrong, of course new roblox is better on tech and stuff but still.
I joined in 2011, but I only played games, so it was 1 year later when I looked at the catalog for the first time. Yeah I missed a lot. From what I gather of 2077-2010 ROBLOX, it sounds like a place I want to be. Spaces in names, good limiteds, not a lot of complicated games so you can make something simple and get rich with it. Sounds like heaven to me.
Holy hell this is hilarious and ironic. I used to watch your vids when I was like, 9 through 11 years old. I understood that Roblox was changing, mostly since 2013 and beyond, but never understood nostalgia. Fast forward and I'm now 19 and I yearn for these simpler times as a kid DAILY.
I joined Roblox in 2008. Old roblox was way better. Tsunami Survival, Welcome to the town of robloxia, paintball, boys vs girls,build a hideout and swordfight. All the good games that dissappeared. Paying 1 tix for clothes getting 10 tix everyday. Back then there were normal people, now everything is getting hacked and oders. I don't mind the old hats, I liked just playing with my friends.Tbh I miss old roblox, people are so stupid now and there is no normal people. None of you will understand old Roblox unless you played it.
i played roblox since 2010 and in my opinion, the community was WAY better. Guests weren't trolls, and noobs were basically 75% of the communtiy, so the hater population was very low.. BC people weren't jerks, and the ODERs back then weren't as gross as they are now. In fact, barely any oders were back on then... plus i liked the old clicker image and more friendly.... PLUS THERE WAS TIX! Reply or like if agree... rip Roblox 2009-2013
actually people on the roblox forrums have been saying bring back roblox since 2008, they also had the first old roblox revival in 2008 for 2006 soo yeah that just shows how pettty we are for old roblox as a community
I think old roblox was better because I don't enjoy civilized games. The old animations were less civilized, the /e dance/laugh/cheer/point/wave thing is civilized, on old roblox almost everyone had the default face, (which for some reason I really enjoy) people weren't greedy back then, back then instead of coding a game you just had to build and then you're done, administrators actually listened to users, I enjoyed the old mouse more than the modern mouse, I think I remember like the only 3 weapons being used in games was that one paintball gun, the rocket launcher, and the linked sword, and the most important of all, PEOPLE DIDN'T CALL EACHOTHER NOOBS. I could go on forever with this list, but I won't.
I remember the days when if you stepped on a spawnpoint, the color of your avatar changes...for some reason I really miss that, even though it's a pretty small detail.
+Alphy Toons I got bored playing old roblox, but yes the community was awesome, I miss the way the players act, I loved the old gui, nowadays, I play it alot, however, nowadays, the community is full of hackers and scammers, they removed my favorite currency, and what else? Since ROBLOX is greedy, they made everything a higher price! I saw this face, that was 7 Robux, now it's 74,00 robux! And I just bought OBC, and I still can't buy stuff!
It's crazy watching a video made in 2013 about old Roblox now that people call me an OG for joining in 2016. This actually makes me evaluate my perspective of Roblox changes, seeing that people complain about the exact same issues we complain about today, it's interesting how history repeats itself
Osyris said it perfectly. Old roblox was fun but it's the nostalgia talking when people say the old was better. Nostalgia blinded people miss a lot of fun... So sad
I totally agree... the roblox community back in 2006-2010 was a lot nicer, admins were not total idiots. I can go on FOREVER for the reason that old roblox was better the this shit new roblox.
I can play an Old Roblox game for half the day, as long as others are around, I actually spent all of my time on Roblox today playing Super Nostalgia Zone. Now in modern Roblox Everything is copied, Repetitive, the idea for most games are already used, boring, not creative, or is just a waiting simulator, or even worse a "simulator" game, I can only stand to play a new Roblox game for a few minutes now...
Old roblox had overpriced VIP T-shirts and massive amounts of build to survive games (classic versions of simulators spread wise). So new roblox is basically the same but better.
this video is proof that no matter the era people are always gonna yearn for the past The "good old days" and "old roblox" people wont stop talking about now are mostly games released 3 YEARS after this video was made because every one wanted old roblox back.
I'd say the old Roblox was much better. In 2010, I joined Roblox. It has mature people and the community was good back then. Now, it's just crappy free-modeled games, ODers everywhere, greedy rich immature kids, scammers, etc. In 2010, there's simple scripts and builds, and players say it's a great game. Nowadays, everything is complex and detailed, so when newer players in 2015/2016 come across an old game, like Feed Batman or Attack of the Slimes or Rocket Builder, they say things like "This is terrible, the builds are bad" and immediately dislike it. I liked destroying things with rockets, stepping on buttons to purchase stuff, building to survive disasters, and killing people on heights with swords. Sometimes I go back to playing them again to bring back the memories.
Y'know, It's nostalgic seeing a video from 9 years ago coming up in my recommended. I'm currently nostalgic for older Roblox again but I know we're where we are because the game has blown up beyond a reasonable sense. The Nostalgia everyone has for the game sits in a time in which we were all teens or children, much more new to the internet and games as a whole. We all talked to each other without a care or fear, problem actors have been around since the dawn of the internet but it wasn't completely realized as it is now as a medium of manipulation but nontheless. Lots of the issues I personally have is simply community and marketing, I get Roblox modernizing hardcore to cater itself as a game engine, but the professionality feels so tacked on and silly, the simplification of brand and the intense need to clarify itself as a game engine when it'll be only know as that one blocky kids game. Iunno, It's fun seeing how the "new" Roblox was a controversial topic then and is again now today. Some people have this false sense of nostalgia where they wanna blame Roblox's downfall on something that wasn't around, like Rthro or 3.0 etc etc, it all boils down to the new community and generation we have nowadays and the overall branding. People now are a lot more edgy and dare I say annoying and have this intense need to present themselves in a specific brand of persona rather than just being kids who like a goofy lil game for its simple charm. Yes the developers of the platform also strive heavily to make money and thus plenty of front page games cash in on the younger generations shorter attention span to make money but there's some gems. I just think a lot of us wish we could go back to the simpler times where making a pizza in a virtual pizza place was the peak of our days. (P.S, Shadovis RPG is half the reason I even started getting nostalgic again because it heavily reminds me of those old RPG Roblox games back in the day)
I joined March 2008 on Roblox. The real reason why people thought it was better was because EVERYBODY was a noob ( the new noob definition, not the made up one that means annoying ). Also, we all were around eight or nine. I was five when I joined Roblox, and I remember we all got mad at each other, and we all pretty much did the same things and went to the same stuff. Though there was more conflict, we all were family in a way.
Complex games? All I see today are obstacle courses of the same fucking thing every month, "JUSTIN BIEBER OBBY" "SANTA OBBY" or a stupidly time-consuming 450 stage obby, no one makes good games anymore, and the actual good games stay on the front page for the entire fucking year, until a new good game is released, but then quickly tired out. Even the ROBLOX game developers looked like they dread their job every day. Go look at the 8-minute GiftSplosion #3 livestream, you'll see what I mean about the game developers.
***** Complex means: "consisting of many different and connected parts" AKA: Something that takes time to build You must've gotten complex mixed in with the other meaning (apartment complex, or any building)
hahahahahaha2366 Apocalypse Rising and some other games.. It isn't easy to make a good game... so please do not complain unless you can make one game which is as good as games we have currently.
HydraZProductions One of the actual good games that has stayed on the front page the entire year. This is my point, the good games stay there forever, and when a new good game gets released, it eventually gets old yet people still keep it alive.Some good games get drowned by crappy obstacle courses or those dumb "Minecr@ft Build To Survive" games. And of course, I understand it isn't easy to make a good game, but anything would be better than the constant obstacle courses and build-to-survives we're getting. I'm not asking for an amazing game, I'm asking for a playable game that is actually unique and not part of the common bullshit on the Front Page all day.
hahahahahaha2366 Build-to-survives seem to have died out over the last year. They've never really been popular during 2013. Now they're more of a nostalgia-center for old players. (e.g. "Build to survive the slimes!") Obbies seem to be somewhat less popular, although this new fad of renaming the same place something different every day to keep it on the front page is incredibly annoying. Most games on the front 1-3 pages are trash or someone taking an un-copy-locked game and claiming it is theirs. (e.g. people copy "Galleons!" and claim it as their own a LOT.) The source of these problems is the community. People complain about guests, while most guests have gotten better than they used to be, but the general community of actual signed-in players has gotten far worse.
asphere8 My reply got deleted, but here's what I basically said: They make new thumbnails on their places every 3 minutes, the Admin's are more to blame not the community, considering they sit there for 5 hours staring at the yearly wave of explicit games that people make several Alt's to failtroll with, none of the thumbnails even make sense, or even refer to their game or ROBLOX itself, fake tags make the searching system fucking useless, fake, copied or terrible places get 4000 players at the same time on the FP and the owner of ROBLOX sits back and takes all the income to make shitty meshes while watching this happen, probably laughing his ass off at the riot that is ROBLOX. Also, "The Games Team" is depressed, the only thing keeping them from flipping a table is their paychecks. (look at the last day of Giftsplosion) So, that explains why we get shitty games for official events now and why you should never play front-page games unless they look like an actual game. Seriously though, admins need to get their shit together. We wouldn't have all these bad games if it wasn't for the admins sitting on their asses bored as hell.
@@phire Fair I only joined like 10 years later when u joined (2018) so I wasnt there but from everything I have watched and learned community wise it pretty much the same like how in your old videos shedletsky isnt portraited has the best roblox admin we hear about today idk Its been a rlly werid feeling that you called some stuff on roblox and frankly shocked u saw my comment cuz U have been active in a year o-o
I had an idea: Maybe ROBLOX could make a separate website that had the old ROBLOX, so people can play the older version. Maybe they can do a kickstarter to get money funded for them.
I don't HATE all the new updates but here's a list on the ones I don't like AND how to fix them. 1) Happy home in robloxia is gone. This was tragic as Happy home in robloxia was an inspiring land where you could build a good game fairly easilly. My favourite was the 2010 version. To fix... Add all versions to starter place as starter place themes. 2) Stupid new badge look. There are already roblox plugins to bring back to old site theme and the old forum theme. They could be an old badge theme plugin.
The games have gotten a lot better in development, but gets boring after a while. There are rarely any new games that are original, or interesting. Sure they're more well developed, but they have little playback value. Due to the vast amount of free models, players keep recoloring or add in a few props and call it whatever they want. They try to scam you into thinking its their creation, when it really isn't. The community is much more irrational than before, whereas now its simply a bunch of desperate, whiny children. There's much less room for creativity in games, and they even removed the option to play on sandbox personal servers. Most of the moderators and administration are in it for the money, rather than listening to their players who keep the website alive. The moderators couldn't care less about hackers and exploiters on their servers. Even if you have BC, they still won't listen to you. They either need to hire more volunteer moderators from the community itself, or continue to lose money. 2011 was truly the last year of good ROBLOX.
I hate it when kids steal my free models and say it's theirs. Most of my free models are unique and great like the defence tower or the classic models and simple models.
During classic roblox, it was easy to make a great game due to what they had back then. Unfortanatly, now it is very hard and needs ideas for it, including scripting, building detail, lighting, and even decals.
It's funny coming across a video made in 2013 talking about 'old Roblox being better' because nowadays it seems that people are now having a nostalgic feel for the 2013-2015 days of Roblox. Makes you think...
Ugh....all of the build to survive back in 2007-2010...oh boy. A LOT of copying was back in 2007-2010. Just accept the fact that new ROBLOX is better than old ROBLOX.
I remember all the games from the video some I still play today I joined in 2012 and i say it was far better back thenR.I.P old roblox u will be missed by us old veteran players
I wasn’t around a lot in the post classic time cuz I played more Minecraft or drew in my early childhood. But I still remember the day in 2013 when my father showed me Roblox in the kitchen hotel room at night and I was blown away by the idea of being able to make your own game and play other games made my other people. I still have my old account but I don’t play Roblox anymore because it’s hard to find something fun out there, or anyone to play with. I’m leaving highschool soon, and looking back at what there was here kinda gives me chills in the fact that the old Roblox will never happen again.
Now its waaaay worse. Back then you could technically buy everything if you hoarded tix, even if you did not buy bc. Now you HAVE to buy bc to buy anything
tix was brought after robux i can tell you the history of currency in roblox. Points were made,robux replaced them,tix were made,and then removed (finally),robux was left being the only currency today
Old roblox: Blue, green and yellow noobs; building games and fighting with rocket launchers that shot out a thin blue brick that travelled at 2mph. New roblox: 'Pal hair' noobs, ODers, and games like "Adopt a cute baby and have a family" - great fun for those pubescent 9 year old girls.
zomgdrhax that and awesome games like *goes to the roblox front page* work at a pizza place (at possition 4) left 4 survival (possision 10 and one of the less common l4d parodies rather than gmod murder) ro-citizens (possition 13) mars invasion tycoon (possition 14) apocalypse rising (possition 15) natural disaster survival (possition 20) robloxity (possiotion 23, and made by 1dev2's alt 1dev3) miners haven (possition 24) catalog heaven (position 26) REASON 2 DIE (possition 28, and one of the best games most people have played) armored patrol (position 53) CoR (possition 54) base wars (possition 56) and those are jsut to name a few good games, a few more are games like phantom forces (so good people made it to the end of the front page despite it costing 75 r$) bloodfest, or zombiecon (just to name a FEW)
Can’t believe my man made this during the time I started playing. It’s funny, because I literally say I miss 2013 roblox. Goes to show how these things work. That isn’t to say some eras weren’t different or better, but everyones always complaining, whether justifiably or not.
I tried to build a decent building. I thought it'd be beautiful, but I was wrong. I became so frustrated, I cut off everything and didn't save the game. I can't build, or script, I liked the older, simpler studio. Fuck this. Fuck everything. I hate this. I hate building. Scripting. I can't. NO. NO MORE. Fuck ROBLOX. Whatever amount of practice I do won't help. All I wanna do is build a decent game like the ones shown in the video. This ROBLOX studio is just so difficult to build with, and scripting. Oh god, scripting. The only thing I could do with LUA is the output thing or some shit that lets me add. Even that's difficult. Tutorials on TH-cam don't help, they're for scripting shit that isn't useful. I wanna build a gun, script a gun, build a car, a door. I wanna build a military outpost, but I can't, because Studio is bad. Any move I make just fucks up the whole project, I try to make a good, balanced game, but these grids just won't let me build. Fuck this shit, I can only build well in Minecraft, but Minecraft lags too much, so what the hell am I supposed to do, how could I fulfill my purpose on this planet? I CAN'T. My ROBLOX character is pointless. Anything. Everything. Fuck. FUCK.
Calm down, take a breath, relax. There is no need to be so upset over the game, but maybe you're just venting. Building is hard, but if you're really passionate about making a game, you will overcome the obstacles and make it. It takes time and effort, A LOT of time and effort.
***** Totally agree. I decided around June 2013 to remake an old obby game I had made the previous year, so I went to work on it. It wasn't until this month when I finally called the game ready for the public. Many stages took about 2 hours to create.
***** Just wondering. Would Roblox be a good place to start with learning how to make scripts for games and stuff? Because I'm really passionate about making a game for now and the future. I don't want to waste my time learning the wrong stuff either.
i do have to admit, the new roblox's community is horrible. people with obc walking around, calling everyone without bc a noob, and saying that everyone who doesn't have bc and are better then them are hackers. afk people who do nothing, whining haters who waste their life trying to make others mad, only half of the people playing roblox are nice to make friends with and play. a game without a good community is no fun to play in
@SANCTXFY RBLX That doesn't make sense, it does not counter my argument. I never mentioned that Roblox should bring back old Roblox, I said old Roblox is better. Plus your roasts are so shit, you're the type of troglodyte who likes his own replies and uses "cuz" "urs" etc. Like stfu you were born in 2013.
Old roblox had overpriced VIP T-shirts and massive amounts of build to survive games (classic versions of simulators spread wise). So new roblox is basically the same but better. Also try playing one of zkevins games. They are fantastic. If not then just search robot 64 on youtube. You wont regret it.
Roblox 2010-2014 was the best period. the physics were still solid, studio made sense, the chat wasn't as heavily censored, and finding newer games was still very possible. You can't even search games on ROBLOX by genre anymore, and that was one of the really big reasons for having left ROBLOX. The only thing that kept me around was the RP community i was in, and when that community made a massive exodus to Discord, I literally had no other reason to be on the site because, well, "there was hardly any way to find games that peaked my interest anymore."
When i think about the old roblox, it makes me go in tears. Of how awesome it was before, round studs, simple sounds, simple scripts, lots of tix hats and much more like lowest pricefloor was 1 ticket. And that was awesome.
History on ROBLOX: 2010: Don't remember much as I was young then. I do remember walking around games as a guest. 2011: Made my first account. I lost it now. 2012:Still had the account but I lost it that year. 2013: made a bunch of new accounts only one of them survived. 2014: Lost that account and made my main that I have today. 2015: Close to quitting ROBLOX. Hackers. Hackers everywhere. 2016: Fairly good until Late when oders grew in numbers even larger than before. (They were fun to troll though). 2017: Do I need to tell you. Everyone is now talking about March 18 and that members on will get hacked by John Doe.
AyeAye Kane I know, i really like the new version too it has its many perks but i will always remember golden age, i would love it so much if someone could revive all the older games like king of the hill and the original sword fight on the heights and have it look like the old original versions
AyeAye Kane i have a bit of a strange name for maybe a group on roblox dedicated to reviving these old gems, the idea for the name being "Roblox Nostalgia Center" or "RNC" for short, it would be interesting... I assume you play the game, my username is darknessdragon1337 if you would like to send a friend request, maybe we could do some stuff together some time, could be fun
+Grantiford My first message, "Hi, I'm lonely. Want to build together?" It was to a guest also, lol. I miss the roblox in the older days, r.i.p...*Roblox Veteran since 2012*
Mine is: ''hi how ar you im richist roblox evver if you wont to see my cash go my home and tell me'' I was 8 years old, so yeah. Sent to the user: kira127
What is better in old Roblox is the green path. That is what we need, for obbys. Better on new Roblox is the nice and new textures, and solid modeling. hmmm, but I think both are good. I miss old Roblox little. I wish there were same stuff from old Roblox.
YES YES YES I MISS THAT THING They said theyd bring it back. Right now all old obbys are broken because you needed it to follow paths. It was also cool to click to walk.
Nooo!! When I play Apocalypse Rising, I will die. If the green circle cursor comes back, I hope it would be in the settings and then you can choose to enable it or disable it.
Look I'm an old Roblox player and old Roblox was ok. Tbh 2018 is still beautiful with other games. When you guys say ODers that means you guys are in those games like the condo. Play something else besides those games. Roblox is still good,better graphics,great animations and alot more. Back in 2010 it wasn't the same
I joined in 2010 and I have to agree, probably because I joined then though. The community was better, the games were better, the website was not as ugly, etc. I miss those days *;-;*
Felipe Toledo No, I think they’re confused on the fact that people in 2013 used to think before their time, was ‘old’ roblox. When people in 2019 consider 2013 to be old which it kinda is.
Actually I quite like the game these days. I just don’t have time to play. I do miss the friends and memories I made back then, though. The river of time stops for no one.
my god this was ahead of its time i joined in 2008 and for me personally, nothing has changed everyone still acts the same outfits are the same but evolved but the most important thing is that you learn how to deal with people the more you hangon
I like the old roblox then because in the old days the people are just Building and building, don't care about how they look like but then there today we have the ODERS and Alot of people calling noobs and the outfits are just over 100 tix like people are going crazy. I wanted the people who were silent and just friend requesting them and never seeing them again until they join a game. OLD ROBLOX I WANT YOU BACK!
Old ROBLOX in my opinion was horrible, there was nothing really exciting about it, It just looked liked a ordinary build your own game website, and you may argue That it was much more than that, but i would disagree, ROBLOX has evolved, for the better or for the worse, There are a WHOLE BUNCH of Unique games out there, where as back in the old days there was nothing that really stood out, And like he said, Scripting wasn't as good as it is today where you can pretty much build whatever you want, back then, Since ROBLOX had pretty much just started you were limited on what types of games you could create.
FlamesOfHyrule I see what you mean. I don't want to fight. We have our opinions. true i just meant that Roblox is only for building things but now, roblox is allowing strangers to talk to one another and that's a problem. But i agree what you said.
roblox has never changed in my opinion, it was always bad, it's just more new people joining and being blinded by nostalgia not realizing that old roblox wasn't "better"
They community has gotten MUCH worse from 2008. In 2008 you'd see cool people who understand the concept of grammar, nonstupidity, and common sense. Nowadays, said people consider themselves better than the community, which leads to a select community of people who think they're better than all of the community and constantly criticize them (and themselves.) The amount of ODers was also fairly low. Now the community works like this. High: Self centered pricks and Game-Creators who speak to nobody but the mentally challenged admins. Medium: Veterans from 2007 to 2009 who rarely play, and if they do then they play on a specific game. Low: Most of the community, all under the age of 12. Most constant front page visitors.
Guests, in general, have gotten somewhat better than they used to be, at least. I fit into the grey area between your 'high' and 'medium' generalizations. (I'm a game creator with ~1/2 million visits, but I'm a veteran from 2008 who doesn't play often.)
Ik grammar is a way of understanding people but on the other side you can understand anyway but they need to have good spelling and roblox is for kids under 12 when ur 12 your basically a teenager Also the adults are calm and nice and cool but Everyone wants to win so i would understand if they think they are better than the community but at the same time you have to understand WE ALL FORGET WE ARE DEALING WITH PEOPLE but we cant see them to get a better position of that during the moment .But there are trolls in roblox and hackers and somepeople think its good to troll cause they are trolls and that can lead to an arguement we all disagree on something like now but still disagreeing causes arguements so dont say the community is bad really.But on the other hand i agree because people just come out of nowhere doing some odd and nasty things which LOTS AND LOTS OF CHILDREN LIKE but Lots and lots of CHILDREN HATE .But boys and girls are chilling and keeping it cool if they walk together and do rp they arnt ODING but if someone is asking someone out about going out CONSTANTLY they wanna date Online so yeah I have bad Grammar but it took me a whole page to tell you the truth

Old
I remember watching this video in 2014, and now we're in 2021. Shesh.
I can't believe we've entered an era where the "new roblox" being talked about in this video has become the old roblox that everyone is nostalgic for, and that some kids won't even remember. I am aging rapidly
The river of time stops for no one.
Roblox 2013 was my favourite old roblox
@ExtraEurobeat new players are getting nostalgic for 2017 roblox
Fucking same, I feel so damn old when I see kids talking about 2015 being "the old roblox"
Tbh, 2015/2016 Roblox is best Roblox.
In 2030 you guys are gonna be like " 2017 Roblox was better! "

Ikr the reason embeing they will probally start adding other stuff to it
Kroniside it might, but it wouldn’t be popular at all, it might just become like aol or something
Well, people will always like original version of ROBLOX better than now and the upcoming updates. But really, this is seen in every type of gaming community such as Mortal Kombat, Metal Gear Solid, Sims, etc. They always see these new games/updates and look at the bad instead of looking at the beneficial side instead. For ROBLOX most people prefer the earlier version back from 2008-2012. I didn't have a ROBLOX account back then but from watching others play it I could tell it was pretty amazing and had some potential. With potential comes sacrifice, and you have to ask yourself... "Satisfy the community or try to do beneficial updates?" I'm not saying that all ROBLOX updates are good (because they're not) but with these small updates, there is great potential. I have a feeling that these updates will lead to something greater in the future (even if they are crappy).
To let those who don't understand know, I am only voicing my opinion. Feel free to add or critique it because this would make for a good discussion since ROBLOX has changed soooo much since this video was uploaded!
roblox made some huge updates but moderation will always remain a meme.

Am I the only one who preferred the old UI and health bar?
I WAN'T THE OLD HEALTH BAR!!!
the UI sucked though
you know I like the new better the only thing I want back is thegreed ring where you put the mouse cursur

They should follow Runescape's footsteps, and just release a Classic Roblox
If you would have thought they still had those programs, hey maybe we would have it BUT. Why would a company pay for that most today players will not care about?
ZeGamerCrew That's why maybe it could be paid to access, I know I would pay for that. You can easily download the clients too, or use Graphictoria.
Taylor Foerster they did its called finobe seems to be an old ROBLOX simulator made by an old admin
Yes! That would be brilliant! And ZeGamerCrew, they do still have the programs and I still have some old clients on my computer, and coming off of what stormer said, even if it was paid access, I would pay for that insatiably. And you should be able to pick what client or year you want to play. But roblox administrators are shitty and they 100% will not do that.
Hello there lads
Finobe is only 2012 (for the time being) and it was not made by an old roblox admin.
Old Roblox was simple, and enjoyable. It had some nice, creative, and mostly fun games, and the community was decently good. New Roblox is slightly ok, but the community is barely anymore good, and the games are all the same thing : shooting games, obbies that always change their theme every 5 seconds, etc.
I know what obby your talking about
remember the old work at a pizza place?
Fireboy 2170 I don't really play Work at a Pizza Place so much, but I'm sure it was much better than now.
Agentpman1 it was you could order your own pizza in the old one
Fireboy 2170 I see.
i love how he called it "old roblox" during what we now call "really old roblox"
i mean for the REAL older players old roblox was during 2006-2012. The modern roblox started in 2013 but its still old

Let's do a retrospective about ROBLOX:
2006: Pretty glitchy game, but very addictive
2007: Same as 2006
2008: New games came out such as Build to survive the zombies, Build your dream house, Pizza Place and Tsunami Survival
2009: Shadows got an improvement, most called as Stencil Shadows
2010: Here comes a slice of foreshadowing, with a bit of ODer games and Clickbaits, only a small bit
2011: Even more ODer games
2012:Graphics got an improvement and the GUI too
2013: Nice...
2014: Pretty.. Cool. I guess..
2015: Still cool
2016: *Silence*
2017: *Sad violin intensifies*
2018: Same as 2017 ;-(
2019: *dead*
I joined in 2015, and despite the fact that it was only a year from the disaster, Roblox was WAY better.
*2006-2010 Golden years.*
I miss the middle era
2011-2016
Roblox is killing their own website with recent updates.
Knight Of the living dead True. It's like they are asking people from old ROBLOX to leave.
Dr. Jamison Junkenstein How?
toofer They terminate old players if they don't stay active enough
Its as if Roblox wanted to destroy its own website...
Think of the bad updates as a stone, the good ones as a flower, And ROBLOX keeps adding more stones on your back than flowers, they keep doing that until you are dead.
Despite the hit or miss quality of your 2013 era videos, I must say this video is still amazing 7.5 years later, you explain in great detail the pros and cons of old Roblox without favoring to the "new" or old at the time. And you're not blindly just saying that old Roblox was perfect in ever way, in fact you admit 2008 had a fuck ton of flaws which is great, because everyone seems to love 2008 to death.
Phire:discuss normally and talks fair by giving a good at both sides
Kids that joined in 2017: OlD rObLoX WaS wAy BeTtEr BeCaUsE pEoPlE r MeAn >:(
Yup
(I know this is a weird ass theory so yeah but oh well) but the reason I think people do that is they are afraid that would be flamed for being new since everyone seems to attack the newer like people who joined 2016 2017 and later than that so they kinda have to fake their veteran status so they won’t be attack (then again there are people who fake it just for attention)
@@Meme-o-Taur tbh the Roblox community just doesn't know what it wants anymore and that's all I'll ever think of it.
Meme-o-Taur ゴゴゴ nice theory!
Begining of 2017 was better
2013: 2008 was better
2019: 2013 was better
me: Will you guys stop finding an era of roblox to say it's better when you have probably never played in that era.
Ruby Star you deserve a sub my friend.
So true.
Your right i was only playing ROBLOX since 2017
I think the best era of roblox was probally 2010-2013 Due to most games were interchangeably functional with old roblox games. Like this is when I remember crossroads used to work before roblox decided "let's make this a team deathmatch game" while fixing it... I am able to relive the old roblox via Novetus + Finobe. Honestly. 2007-2009 don't have a whole lot going for them at all. I would say are meh.
The roblox community doesn't know what it wants lol
@@Parker_Lot I partially agree and disagree. One part of the roblox community like myself would want a standard lego-like builder with scripting capabilities with glitches and all. A less focus on realism and a more on the cartoonish nature of pyshics and appearance. More focused on simple building that is R and T controls in hopperbins now hidden feature.
Staying away from the realism of modern roblox, while the other side is more for a technical power house, that has tons of realism, action packed coding.
The third would be a more lenient roblox that is easier for developers and not make them in fear of releasing decals, hats, scripts, models, and generally more friendly for creation like the first one, but without so much strictness.
I feel the only good compromise is launcher switches sadly which would basically alienate mobile / console users.
I hate modern roblox's lack of feedback due to the removal of comment sections and forums. That would help me so much to improve. But thanks to modern roblox! THAT AIN'T GONNA BE EASY WITHOUT LEARNING TO CODE A SYSTEM!
If anyone remembers any the following, like this comment.
Cart rides, build to survive,who killed,be crushed by a speeding wall,shoop da whoop,this is Sparta,1x1x1x1,The mobile bloxxers,Fleskhjerta,King of the hill (not the tv show), having to wear t-shirts for VIP and admin, Person299's mini games
That's all I remember from 2010
I am from late 2009 and and I remember all of those except King of the hill, but let me have a word with you.
YOU FORGOT " Survive INSERT Horror movie character at INSERT place "!!!!!!!
Crs-10 I played cart rides and shoot da whoop
Crs-10 does 2017 count :(
*2016
I wish there was something we could do to make roblox create an old roblox clone without all the greed and ads. Also i loved Koomike's games the most.
Well you know, old roblox showed that without scripting you can have a lot of fun on the places... It was just.. entertaining. Don't get me wrong, of course new roblox is better on tech and stuff but still.
SonicSpeed61 less=more that's how old Roblox was, you can have fun with the most simple things ever.
@Desired101 ikr
@Desired101 Scripting a generic trash simulator game is very easy, but if you are trying to script a original game it's going to be very hard.
Say what you will about the old HUD... I quite like the simplicity it had, plus it had icons for your actions.
I joined in 2011, but I only played games, so it was 1 year later when I looked at the catalog for the first time. Yeah I missed a lot. From what I gather of 2077-2010 ROBLOX, it sounds like a place I want to be. Spaces in names, good limiteds, not a lot of complicated games so you can make something simple and get rich with it. Sounds like heaven to me.
2077???? WTF?? XD LOOOL
gregory 4297 2007* Haha that would be funny, since Roblox would probably not even exist in 2077..

Holy hell this is hilarious and ironic. I used to watch your vids when I was like, 9 through 11 years old. I understood that Roblox was changing, mostly since 2013 and beyond, but never understood nostalgia. Fast forward and I'm now 19 and I yearn for these simpler times as a kid DAILY.
8:30 the word is "nostalgia"
I joined Roblox in 2008. Old roblox was way better. Tsunami Survival, Welcome to the town of robloxia, paintball, boys vs girls,build a hideout and swordfight. All the good games that dissappeared. Paying 1 tix for clothes getting 10 tix everyday. Back then there were normal people, now everything is getting hacked and oders. I don't mind the old hats, I liked just playing with my friends.Tbh I miss old roblox, people are so stupid now and there is no normal people. None of you will understand old Roblox unless you played it.
You forgot the hide and seek and fat princess.
Let's list some great games, shall we? The original Paintball, JJ5x5's place (RIP), Sword Fight on the Heights,
No one is normal xD and I agree
I dont understand old roblox but in a way i want to play it.....
all get in the nostalgia train
"Everyone looked the same in old roblox"
Well 2017 is now even worse.
everyone is clapped

Honestly at this point I wouldn't mind them bringing back guests just so I don't have to see any more bacon hairs
THE ODERS
oders are just roleplayers who are around since 2009 or so
i played roblox since 2010 and in my opinion, the community was WAY better. Guests weren't trolls, and noobs were basically 75% of the communtiy, so the hater population was very low.. BC people weren't jerks, and the ODERs back then weren't as gross as they are now. In fact, barely any oders were back on then... plus i liked the old clicker image and more friendly.... PLUS THERE WAS TIX! Reply or like if agree... rip Roblox 2009-2013

@@ItsDragonPlayer DAMN
I think old roblox was better because I don't enjoy civilized games. The old animations were less civilized, the /e dance/laugh/cheer/point/wave thing is civilized, on old roblox almost everyone had the default face, (which for some reason I really enjoy) people weren't greedy back then, back then instead of coding a game you just had to build and then you're done, administrators actually listened to users, I enjoyed the old mouse more than the modern mouse, I think I remember like the only 3 weapons being used in games was that one paintball gun, the rocket launcher, and the linked sword, and the most important of all, PEOPLE DIDN'T CALL EACHOTHER NOOBS. I could go on forever with this list, but I won't.
I remember the days when if you stepped on a spawnpoint, the color of your avatar changes...for some reason I really miss that, even though it's a pretty small detail.
***** what would you do if old ROBLOX was back be happy excited or what
Impostrey same you know you could get the old ROBLOX back is like uh mod I think idk
I even miss the old driving mechanic.
Impostrey I'll cry for joy if the old ROBLOX was back
I loved when everyone’s avatar was creative, people today have the same hair on, I hate it
Bro back then everyone looked the same, everyone had the shaggy hair or the beautiful hair
some didnt have hair
Yeah. Now usually 75% or more of the server is just some bacon or noodle hair. lol

Old ROBLOX: Bad game, good community.

+Alphy Toons Well, the games now are pretty cool but... they get repetitive.

+Alphy Toons I got bored playing old roblox, but yes the community was awesome, I miss the way the players act, I loved the old gui, nowadays, I play it alot, however, nowadays, the community is full of hackers and scammers, they removed my favorite currency, and what else? Since ROBLOX is greedy, they made everything a higher price! I saw this face, that was 7 Robux, now it's 74,00 robux! And I just bought OBC, and I still can't buy stuff!
Basicly
Old ROBLOX: Good game, good community
New ROBLOX: Bad game, bad community
It's crazy watching a video made in 2013 about old Roblox now that people call me an OG for joining in 2016. This actually makes me evaluate my perspective of Roblox changes, seeing that people complain about the exact same issues we complain about today, it's interesting how history repeats itself
Osyris said it perfectly. Old roblox was fun but it's the nostalgia talking when people say the old was better. Nostalgia blinded people miss a lot of fun... So sad
True. just true.
When people talk about old roblox nowadays they talk about 2016-2018 versions funnily enough
Early-mid 2019 too
2006-2010:
Hey, do you want to make a game? Sure thing, just use Studio!
2011-2015:
I pity you, use scripting!

I totally agree... the roblox community back in 2006-2010 was a lot nicer, admins were not total idiots. I can go on FOREVER for the reason that old roblox was better the this shit new roblox.

Old ROBLOX: Fun and Simple Games, Friendly community.
New ROBLOX: Incredibly built games that aren't fun, shitty community.
I can play an Old Roblox game for half the day, as long as others are around, I actually spent all of my time on Roblox today playing Super Nostalgia Zone. Now in modern Roblox Everything is copied, Repetitive, the idea for most games are already used, boring, not creative, or is just a waiting simulator, or even worse a "simulator" game, I can only stand to play a new Roblox game for a few minutes now...
Agreed, totally
There are some diamonds in the rough though.
Old roblox had overpriced VIP T-shirts and massive amounts of build to survive games (classic versions of simulators spread wise). So new roblox is basically the same but better.
stop looking at the bad side, people now only look at the good side of 2015 and miss it.
this video is proof that no matter the era people are always gonna yearn for the past
The "good old days" and "old roblox" people wont stop talking about now are mostly games released 3 YEARS after this video was made because every one wanted old roblox back.
It's not like roblox could release the old client and site on a separate domain anyway. They'll just ruin and butcher it.
People in 2013 already were thinking that when now some people say that 2016-2018 was 'old roblox'
fr
I'd say the old Roblox was much better. In 2010, I joined Roblox. It has mature people and the community was good back then. Now, it's just crappy free-modeled games, ODers everywhere, greedy rich immature kids, scammers, etc. In 2010, there's simple scripts and builds, and players say it's a great game. Nowadays, everything is complex and detailed, so when newer players in 2015/2016 come across an old game, like Feed Batman or Attack of the Slimes or Rocket Builder, they say things like "This is terrible, the builds are bad" and immediately dislike it. I liked destroying things with rockets, stepping on buttons to purchase stuff, building to survive disasters, and killing people on heights with swords. Sometimes I go back to playing them again to bring back the memories.
RakaThon The worst thing on roblox is role play
I agree except for the fact that I joined in 2011 :P

Y'know, It's nostalgic seeing a video from 9 years ago coming up in my recommended. I'm currently nostalgic for older Roblox again but I know we're where we are because the game has blown up beyond a reasonable sense. The Nostalgia everyone has for the game sits in a time in which we were all teens or children, much more new to the internet and games as a whole. We all talked to each other without a care or fear, problem actors have been around since the dawn of the internet but it wasn't completely realized as it is now as a medium of manipulation but nontheless. Lots of the issues I personally have is simply community and marketing, I get Roblox modernizing hardcore to cater itself as a game engine, but the professionality feels so tacked on and silly, the simplification of brand and the intense need to clarify itself as a game engine when it'll be only know as that one blocky kids game.
Iunno, It's fun seeing how the "new" Roblox was a controversial topic then and is again now today. Some people have this false sense of nostalgia where they wanna blame Roblox's downfall on something that wasn't around, like Rthro or 3.0 etc etc, it all boils down to the new community and generation we have nowadays and the overall branding. People now are a lot more edgy and dare I say annoying and have this intense need to present themselves in a specific brand of persona rather than just being kids who like a goofy lil game for its simple charm. Yes the developers of the platform also strive heavily to make money and thus plenty of front page games cash in on the younger generations shorter attention span to make money but there's some gems.
I just think a lot of us wish we could go back to the simpler times where making a pizza in a virtual pizza place was the peak of our days.
(P.S, Shadovis RPG is half the reason I even started getting nostalgic again because it heavily reminds me of those old RPG Roblox games back in the day)
I completely agree and i will always treasure those small sub communities that keep that dream and charm alive with that sense of wonder!
I joined March 2008 on Roblox. The real reason why people thought it was better was because EVERYBODY was a noob ( the new noob definition, not the made up one that means annoying ). Also, we all were around eight or nine. I was five when I joined Roblox, and I remember we all got mad at each other, and we all pretty much did the same things and went to the same stuff. Though there was more conflict, we all were family in a way.
I tried to explain that to them.
Don Pastera I don't get you're comment , can you explain it it perhaps...other words ?
Complex games? All I see today are obstacle courses of the same fucking thing every month, "JUSTIN BIEBER OBBY" "SANTA OBBY" or a stupidly time-consuming 450 stage obby, no one makes good games anymore, and the actual good games stay on the front page for the entire fucking year, until a new good game is released, but then quickly tired out. Even the ROBLOX game developers looked like they dread their job every day. Go look at the 8-minute GiftSplosion #3 livestream, you'll see what I mean about the game developers.
*****
Complex means:
"consisting of many different and connected parts"
AKA: Something that takes time to build
You must've gotten complex mixed in with the other meaning (apartment complex, or any building)
hahahahahaha2366 Apocalypse Rising and some other games.. It isn't easy to make a good game... so please do not complain unless you can make one game which is as good as games we have currently.
HydraZProductions
One of the actual good games that has stayed on the front page the entire year. This is my point, the good games stay there forever, and when a new good game gets released, it eventually gets old yet people still keep it alive.Some good games get drowned by crappy obstacle courses or those dumb "Minecr@ft Build To Survive" games. And of course, I understand it isn't easy to make a good game, but anything would be better than the constant obstacle courses and build-to-survives we're getting. I'm not asking for an amazing game, I'm asking for a playable game that is actually unique and not part of the common bullshit on the Front Page all day.
hahahahahaha2366 Build-to-survives seem to have died out over the last year. They've never really been popular during 2013. Now they're more of a nostalgia-center for old players. (e.g. "Build to survive the slimes!") Obbies seem to be somewhat less popular, although this new fad of renaming the same place something different every day to keep it on the front page is incredibly annoying. Most games on the front 1-3 pages are trash or someone taking an un-copy-locked game and claiming it is theirs. (e.g. people copy "Galleons!" and claim it as their own a LOT.) The source of these problems is the community. People complain about guests, while most guests have gotten better than they used to be, but the general community of actual signed-in players has gotten far worse.
asphere8 My reply got deleted, but here's what I basically said:
They make new thumbnails on their places every 3 minutes, the Admin's are more to blame not the community, considering they sit there for 5 hours staring at the yearly wave of explicit games that people make several Alt's to failtroll with, none of the thumbnails even make sense, or even refer to their game or ROBLOX itself, fake tags make the searching system fucking useless, fake, copied or terrible places get 4000 players at the same time on the FP and the owner of ROBLOX sits back and takes all the income to make shitty meshes while watching this happen, probably laughing his ass off at the riot that is ROBLOX.
Also, "The Games Team" is depressed, the only thing keeping them from flipping a table is their paychecks. (look at the last day of Giftsplosion)
So, that explains why we get shitty games for official events now and why you should never play front-page games unless they look like an actual game. Seriously though, admins need to get their shit together. We wouldn't have all these bad games if it wasn't for the admins sitting on their asses bored as hell.

mostly indifferent. it looks like ppl enjoy the new game but idk. whole site has lost the charm of days gone by.
@@phire Fair I only joined like 10 years later when u joined (2018) so I wasnt there but from everything I have watched and learned community wise it pretty much the same like how in your old videos shedletsky isnt portraited has the best roblox admin we hear about today idk Its been a rlly werid feeling that you called some stuff on roblox and frankly shocked u saw my comment cuz U have been active in a year o-o
I had an idea: Maybe ROBLOX could make a separate website that had the old ROBLOX, so people can play the older version. Maybe they can do a kickstarter to get money funded for them.
Can you pay to hold 2 servers with both communities playing each?
That wouldn't work cause OD'ers, Hackers etc would join and ruin it...

MrNeogreo
Dev and Pri kinda suck. I've had them for about a year and a half now.
I know
I don't HATE all the new updates but here's a list on the ones I don't like AND how to fix them.
1) Happy home in robloxia is gone.
This was tragic as Happy home in robloxia was an inspiring land where you could build a good game fairly easilly. My favourite was the 2010 version.
To fix...
Add all versions to starter place as starter place themes.
2) Stupid new badge look.
There are already roblox plugins to bring back to old site theme and the old forum theme. They could be an old badge theme plugin.
The games have gotten a lot better in development, but gets boring after a while. There are rarely any new games that are original, or interesting. Sure they're more well developed, but they have little playback value. Due to the vast amount of free models, players keep recoloring or add in a few props and call it whatever they want. They try to scam you into thinking its their creation, when it really isn't. The community is much more irrational than before, whereas now its simply a bunch of desperate, whiny children. There's much less room for creativity in games, and they even removed the option to play on sandbox personal servers. Most of the moderators and administration are in it for the money, rather than listening to their players who keep the website alive. The moderators couldn't care less about hackers and exploiters on their servers. Even if you have BC, they still won't listen to you. They either need to hire more volunteer moderators from the community itself, or continue to lose money. 2011 was truly the last year of good ROBLOX.
I hate it when kids steal my free models and say it's theirs. Most of my free models are unique and great like the defence tower or the classic models and simple models.

During classic roblox, it was easy to make a great game due to what they had back then. Unfortanatly, now it is very hard and needs ideas for it, including scripting, building detail, lighting, and even decals.
Old ROBLOX, come back!
It's funny coming across a video made in 2013 talking about 'old Roblox being better' because nowadays it seems that people are now having a nostalgic feel for the 2013-2015 days of Roblox. Makes you think...
shut up everyone knows they don’t want old roblox they just trying to act nice so people give them pets in adopt me.
Now it's all about Gmod remakes and games where there's a bunch a people 1-killer 2-protector
murder, stalker, prop hunt, city rp, ect
Owen Raine
ughhh mostly copies nowdays...
Alexander Albinsson i know there is about 15 different murders
Ugh....all of the build to survive back in 2007-2010...oh boy. A LOT of copying was back in 2007-2010. Just accept the fact that new ROBLOX is better than old ROBLOX.
True :/
I remember all the games from the video some I still play today I joined in 2012 and i say it was far better back thenR.I.P old roblox u will be missed by us old veteran players
I wasn’t around a lot in the post classic time cuz I played more Minecraft or drew in my early childhood. But I still remember the day in 2013 when my father showed me Roblox in the kitchen hotel room at night and I was blown away by the idea of being able to make your own game and play other games made my other people. I still have my old account but I don’t play Roblox anymore because it’s hard to find something fun out there, or anyone to play with. I’m leaving highschool soon, and looking back at what there was here kinda gives me chills in the fact that the old Roblox will never happen again.
Now days, if your game doesn't have a ton of scripting and/or fancy gui's, no one will bother with it.
Now its waaaay worse.
Back then you could technically buy everything if you hoarded tix, even if you did not buy bc.
Now you HAVE to buy bc to buy anything
tix was brought after robux i can tell you the history of currency in roblox. Points were made,robux replaced them,tix were made,and then removed (finally),robux was left being the only currency today
We should talk Shedletsky about this.... But he quit? Hmm....
He did not quit Dave was his mentor helping him learn how to run his own company he still does stuff for roblox just not as much as he use to
Let's start a war!!!! Those greedy pigs only want money >:(
I'm making robux through group funds.... so you don't "HAVE" to.
Old roblox: Blue, green and yellow noobs; building games and fighting with rocket launchers that shot out a thin blue brick that travelled at 2mph.
New roblox: 'Pal hair' noobs, ODers, and games like "Adopt a cute baby and have a family" - great fun for those pubescent 9 year old girls.
zomgdrhax ;-; old roblox was sooo much better teleport fly and jump
zomgdrhax that and awesome games like *goes to the roblox front page* work at a pizza place (at possition 4) left 4 survival (possision 10 and one of the less common l4d parodies rather than gmod murder) ro-citizens (possition 13) mars invasion tycoon (possition 14) apocalypse rising (possition 15) natural disaster survival (possition 20) robloxity (possiotion 23, and made by 1dev2's alt 1dev3) miners haven (possition 24) catalog heaven (position 26) REASON 2 DIE (possition 28, and one of the best games most people have played) armored patrol (position 53) CoR (possition 54) base wars (possition 56) and those are jsut to name a few good games, a few more are games like phantom forces (so good people made it to the end of the front page despite it costing 75 r$) bloodfest, or zombiecon (just to name a FEW)
Everything you mentioned except "bacon hair newbs" was in old Roblox too.
AHAHAHA
You made my day
+zomgdrhax DONT GET ME STARTED ON GMOD GAMES AND DOES CHEAP BASTARDS
I joined roblox on February/23rd/2011 and I'm starting to forget how it was sadly but I miss it :(
I made my account in 2012, but I played as Guest in 2010
Same, and as recently as 2018 I finally changed my gmail on there to my actual gmail instead of whatever I had my dad put in 8 or 9 years ago
Talking about "old Roblox" in 2013
Wth i thought this was 2022 until i looked at the description...
Can’t believe my man made this during the time I started playing. It’s funny, because I literally say I miss 2013 roblox. Goes to show how these things work. That isn’t to say some eras weren’t different or better, but everyones always complaining, whether justifiably or not.
I tried to build a decent building. I thought it'd be beautiful, but I was wrong. I became so frustrated, I cut off everything and didn't save the game. I can't build, or script, I liked the older, simpler studio. Fuck this. Fuck everything. I hate this. I hate building. Scripting. I can't. NO. NO MORE. Fuck ROBLOX. Whatever amount of practice I do won't help. All I wanna do is build a decent game like the ones shown in the video. This ROBLOX studio is just so difficult to build with, and scripting. Oh god, scripting. The only thing I could do with LUA is the output thing or some shit that lets me add. Even that's difficult. Tutorials on TH-cam don't help, they're for scripting shit that isn't useful. I wanna build a gun, script a gun, build a car, a door. I wanna build a military outpost, but I can't, because Studio is bad. Any move I make just fucks up the whole project, I try to make a good, balanced game, but these grids just won't let me build. Fuck this shit, I can only build well in Minecraft, but Minecraft lags too much, so what the hell am I supposed to do, how could I fulfill my purpose on this planet? I CAN'T. My ROBLOX character is pointless. Anything. Everything. Fuck. FUCK.
Calm down, take a breath, relax. There is no need to be so upset over the game, but maybe you're just venting. Building is hard, but if you're really passionate about making a game, you will overcome the obstacles and make it. It takes time and effort, A LOT of time and effort.
***** Totally agree. I decided around June 2013 to remake an old obby game I had made the previous year, so I went to work on it. It wasn't until this month when I finally called the game ready for the public. Many stages took about 2 hours to create.
*****
Just wondering. Would Roblox be a good place to start with learning how to make scripts for games and stuff? Because I'm really passionate about making a game for now and the future. I don't want to waste my time learning the wrong stuff either.
I think so. Many people end up making indie games after ROBLOX.
*****
Really! Awesome, who are those people?
Old ROBLOX had better games because there was a wide, and I mean WIDE variety of games.
Lol what

What is hard to understand?

How am I bullshitting?
Yes, some games today are good, but most are just reused ideas.
Back in the old days ... Roblox Community was better we did not had so many noobs,Oders and douchebags..
Also we didn't had so many scams and exploiters ...
Well back in the day we DID have ODers but everyone was one and it wasn't a big deal at that time
i miss the old days
I feel you m8..
Carlos iliop there weren't any limiteds in 2007
This and the other video about the topic aged so damn well. People really are saying that 2018 was the golden age, some are now saying it was 2019.
i do have to admit, the new roblox's community is horrible. people with obc walking around, calling everyone without bc a noob, and saying that everyone who doesn't have bc and are better then them are hackers. afk people who do nothing, whining haters who waste their life trying to make others mad, only half of the people playing roblox are nice to make friends with and play. a game without a good community is no fun to play in
True in 100.99%
Ikr
Don't even mention the forums, ugh, disgusting
The 2016ers ruined the community. A trend I’ve seen is that the people who bullied me have a high change of joining 2016.
And in jailbreak if you arrest sombody they call you hacker
Bro this is evidence that it’s all a loop, old comments saying 2015 sucks, now look at us hating 2020 missing 2015. Wtf???
Yup lol. The paradox continues.
its roblox. that's why.
Idk why people say that 2015 was a bad year, it was so good and that's the first year of the modern graphics
People are blinded by nostalgia is actually kind of interesting
2013: Was old Roblox better?
2020: Why old Roblox was better.
pretty much
@Lunar you again
@SANCTXFY RBLX God you must have been one of the biggest disappointments i've ever seen.
@SANCTXFY RBLX That doesn't make sense, it does not counter my argument. I never mentioned that Roblox should bring back old Roblox, I said old Roblox is better. Plus your roasts are so shit, you're the type of troglodyte who likes his own replies and uses "cuz" "urs" etc. Like stfu you were born in 2013.
Old roblox had overpriced VIP T-shirts and massive amounts of build to survive games (classic versions of simulators spread wise). So new roblox is basically the same but better.
Also try playing one of zkevins games. They are fantastic. If not then just search robot 64 on youtube. You wont regret it.
This is my comfort video I don’t know why
Roblox 2010-2014 was the best period. the physics were still solid, studio made sense, the chat wasn't as heavily censored, and finding newer games was still very possible. You can't even search games on ROBLOX by genre anymore, and that was one of the really big reasons for having left ROBLOX. The only thing that kept me around was the RP community i was in, and when that community made a massive exodus to Discord, I literally had no other reason to be on the site because, well, "there was hardly any way to find games that peaked my interest anymore."
Studio makes much more sense now lol
ah yes back when it was capped at 30 fps
@@disabledfalafel September 28, 2013 roblox adds in the 60 FPS cap instead of the 30 FPS cap.
I use to have so many friends, but they all quit. Now I'm just down to two, TWO. ;-;
Si you had a bad day! You're tearin one down! You sing a sad song and it wont go arouuund!

Rip community
2007-late 2013
it's crazy that 2013 is now considered old roblox, and you made this video in 2013, when old roblox was just 6-5 years old, wow
When i think about the old roblox, it makes me go in tears. Of how awesome it was before, round studs, simple sounds, simple scripts, lots of tix hats and much more like lowest pricefloor was 1 ticket. And that was awesome.
now that u say that im crying too...I MISS THE OLD ROBLOX!!!!!!!!!!!!! D;
Lowest Pricefloor now is 300 R$ and 400 Tix.
why do people like the round studs so much? they want roblox to get sued?
People in 2013: eeekk! 2013 looks garbage
People in 2022: i miss 2013...
2013 - Roblox 2006 was better!
2022 - 2013 Roblox was better
History on ROBLOX:
2010: Don't remember much as I was young then. I do remember walking around games as a guest.
2011: Made my first account. I lost it now.
2012:Still had the account but I lost it that year.
2013: made a bunch of new accounts only one of them survived.
2014: Lost that account and made my main that I have today.
2015: Close to quitting ROBLOX. Hackers. Hackers everywhere.
2016: Fairly good until Late when oders grew in numbers even larger than before.
(They were fun to troll though).
2017: Do I need to tell you. Everyone is now talking about March 18 and that members on will get hacked by John Doe.
I liked old roblox better, The simple fun, and the nostalgia, golden age were good times
+Epsilonity But if it stayed like that, there wouldn't be any nostalgia.
AyeAye Kane I know, i really like the new version too it has its many perks but i will always remember golden age, i would love it so much if someone could revive all the older games like king of the hill and the original sword fight on the heights and have it look like the old original versions
+Epsilonity Same. I wish they would make another roblox called Roblox Classic or something and bring it back to like 2008.
AyeAye Kane i have a bit of a strange name for maybe a group on roblox dedicated to reviving these old gems, the idea for the name being "Roblox Nostalgia Center" or "RNC" for short, it would be interesting... I assume you play the game, my username is darknessdragon1337 if you would like to send a friend request, maybe we could do some stuff together some time, could be fun
My name on it is Qizp, and that sounds fun.
when I joined on 2011 I was so enjoyed that there's no stupid noobs back in 2011
Really? Cause that was when you "Noobs" or "New People" started coming in.
xXSpectrumWolfXx noob
I beg to differ, I'm from 2009, I'm not new to ROBLOX. :P
I also joined in 2011
2011 was the year I made 600k selling vip for my places. Thank god all the bc noobs came in 2011
My first message sent: "SOMONE DELETED MY PLANE!!!!"

+Grantiford My first message, "Hi, I'm lonely. Want to build together?" It was to a guest also, lol. I miss the roblox in the older days, r.i.p...*Roblox Veteran since 2012*

I would like going back to 2012 and 2013! (When I first joined)
What is better in old Roblox is the green path.
That is what we need, for obbys.
Better on new Roblox is the nice and new textures, and solid modeling.
hmmm, but I think both are good.
I miss old Roblox little.
I wish there were same stuff from old Roblox.
That green circle.
It helps us in obbys like when there is walk on invisible path.
YES YES YES I MISS THAT THING
They said theyd bring it back. Right now all old obbys are broken because you needed it to follow paths. It was also cool to click to walk.
Wait...
The green thing will come back?
If it will- when?
Hamza Hassan In 2011 they promised the circle coming back AND ingame character changing. They haven't delivered EITHER.
Nooo!!
When I play Apocalypse Rising, I will die.
If the green circle cursor comes back, I hope it would be in the settings and then you can choose to enable it or disable it.
Look I'm an old Roblox player and old Roblox was ok. Tbh 2018 is still beautiful with other games.
When you guys say ODers that means you guys are in those games like the condo.
Play something else besides those games. Roblox is still good,better graphics,great animations and alot more. Back in 2010 it wasn't the same
Late 2011 and early 2012 was the best roblox time, if they had trading back then even better!
+CR7NEYMAR 2008 is the best I guess I joine in 2013 spt
I joined in 2010 and I have to agree, probably because I joined then though. The community was better, the games were better, the website was not as ugly, etc.
I miss those days *;-;*
2010>2008>2011>2012
2010>2008>2011>2012
Late 2012 and early 2012 was the era i first started in, I was atleast able to have a young account before the OD era
this turns 9 years old tomorrow
Lol now everybody in 2016 wishes it was still 2013. One of those people is me but 2014 was the best year of Roblox for me.
I joined in 2013 rob lox was actually good in 2013, wanna know why? cause Eric Cassel was still alive
Lol what no he wasn't he died in 2009 sorry to break the news.
PhirePhies he died in 2013 I looked it up
Yes! 2014 was the best year!
Dola sho not really 2014 is when it died
2013 was the best
2013: old roblox was better!

No, I think they’re confused on the fact that people in 2013 used to think before their time, was ‘old’ roblox. When people in 2019 consider 2013 to be old which it kinda is.
2021 roblox is beacoming more boring and monotone the more minutes pass
2012 is my favorite year.
2010-2015 was at its all time high for me but 2016 is when it started to change MAJORLY. I miss the old charm it had
phire in 2013: Was Old ROBLOX Really Better?
phire in 2021: I miss old ROBLOX
Actually I quite like the game these days. I just don’t have time to play. I do miss the friends and memories I made back then, though. The river of time stops for no one.
@@phire wow you replied, btw new sub
my god this was ahead of its time
i joined in 2008 and for me personally, nothing has changed
everyone still acts the same
outfits are the same but evolved
but the most important thing is that you learn how to deal with people the more you hangon
I like the old roblox then because in the old days the people are just Building and building, don't care about how they look like but then there today we have the ODERS and Alot of people calling noobs and the outfits are just over 100 tix like people are going crazy. I wanted the people who were silent and just friend requesting them and never seeing them again until they join a game. OLD ROBLOX I WANT YOU BACK!
Edith Coronado I feel you ;(
Constance Contraire I want the old Roblox back too. I want the airstrike and the R-Orb in Catalog Heaven
Old ROBLOX in my opinion was horrible, there was nothing really exciting about it, It just looked liked a ordinary build your own game website, and you may argue That it was much more than that, but i would disagree, ROBLOX has evolved, for the better or for the worse, There are a WHOLE BUNCH of Unique games out there, where as back in the old days there was nothing that really stood out, And like he said, Scripting wasn't as good as it is today where you can pretty much build whatever you want, back then, Since ROBLOX had pretty much just started you were limited on what types of games you could create.
FlamesOfHyrule I see what you mean. I don't want to fight. We have our opinions. true i just meant that Roblox is only for building things but now, roblox is allowing strangers to talk to one another and that's a problem. But i agree what you said.
FlamesOfHyrule meh=well, kinda... I just thought the no ODing thing and hackers/exploiters/etc made old roblox better :P Nothing else much
In the ROBLOX of today,They bully people and question what they "wear"
I mean,What in the world?
Old ROBLOX didn't have any bulling of hack.
I’m surprised they talked about this in even 2013.
roblox has never changed in my opinion, it was always bad, it's just more new people joining and being blinded by nostalgia not realizing that old roblox wasn't "better"
The old graphics were better with lighting and shadows, dang
+AyeAye Kane yes!!!!!!!!
+Borislav Gridnev Why'd they even change it? it looks really nice.
+TheAwesomeCaik I joined in 2012 too.
+AyeAye Kane true.
+Alex Wootton Oh, alright. That would make sense to remove it because it doesn't effect much at all other than lag.
They community has gotten MUCH worse from 2008. In 2008 you'd see cool people who understand the concept of grammar, nonstupidity, and common sense. Nowadays, said people consider themselves better than the community, which leads to a select community of people who think they're better than all of the community and constantly criticize them (and themselves.) The amount of ODers was also fairly low. Now the community works like this.
High: Self centered pricks and Game-Creators who speak to nobody but the mentally challenged admins.
Medium: Veterans from 2007 to 2009 who rarely play, and if they do then they play on a specific game.
Low: Most of the community, all under the age of 12. Most constant front page visitors.
Guests, in general, have gotten somewhat better than they used to be, at least. I fit into the grey area between your 'high' and 'medium' generalizations. (I'm a game creator with ~1/2 million visits, but I'm a veteran from 2008 who doesn't play often.)
Ik grammar is a way of understanding people but on the other side you can understand anyway but they need to have good spelling and roblox is for kids under 12 when ur 12 your basically a teenager Also the adults are calm and nice and cool but Everyone wants to win so i would understand if they think they are better than the community but at the same time you have to understand WE ALL FORGET WE ARE DEALING WITH PEOPLE but we cant see them to get a better position of that during the moment .But there are trolls in roblox and hackers and somepeople think its good to troll cause they are trolls and that can lead to an arguement we all disagree on something like now but still disagreeing causes arguements so dont say the community is bad really.But on the other hand i agree because people just come out of nowhere doing some odd and nasty things which LOTS AND LOTS OF CHILDREN LIKE but Lots and lots of CHILDREN HATE .But boys and girls are chilling and keeping it cool if they walk together and do rp they arnt ODING but if someone is asking someone out about going out CONSTANTLY they wanna date Online so yeah I have bad Grammar but it took me a whole page to tell you the truth
I feel like the comunity has improved in 2018, But pepole are blowing out of proportion the bad part. The only time i got called a noob was like, 2 or 3 times?
pd:Yes, i know this video is 2 years old
@@bmvnbnmbmbmbm__00 my bad
This video was made 9 years ago? have roblox players been talking about old roblox since always????
I’ve been on the site since 2008, and can confidently say we were complaining about noobs, online daters, and other topics even back then.
