roblox claims tons of new games in their earnings call but that count includes template copies and test builds the real unique experiences number they don't even share

roblox numbers mean nothing everyone hyping this up must be looking at a different dashboard than me

i get being annoyed at inflated numbers, but can they even sort out template clones from actual real games at that point? has anyone actually seen a breakdown of active players per tier?

Yeah, my daughter's been building little obstacle courses in Roblox for fun, and even those count as 'experiences' now. I just wish they'd be upfront about what's actually a game with active players vs. empty templates.

roblox has been padding numbers for years. templates and test builds arent games and anyone who publishes on there knows it. bragging about total experiences is meaningless when so many of them are literally just the default baseplate

@edb93edb93... you've hit the nail on the head. I remember when building a game meant learning to code, not dragging prefabs into a room. Roblox's whole 'experiences' count is just them pumping up fake numbers. It's like including every save file of Doom created in 1995 as a separate game... they don't make them like they used to.

@kettle_88I checked once and it was just a wall of the same tycoon twice.

@kettle_88Nah they don't break that down. Roblox is happy letting everyone think there's a thousand actual games when half of 'em are just someone's first script. Tell him he's dreaming if he thinks we'll ever see that data.

@leaveitaloneTotal letdown. Roblox's numbers are meaningless.

Numbers are numbers but if they can't tell a clone from a real build that's on them
