Beyond whether or not it's a good purchase or acquisition option, I believe that Roblox is not a viable option at all, especially if it's for your children. Simply doing a more or less in-depth search on the internet or on platforms like YouTube about Roblox reveals complaints about security issues, cases of harassment and child abuse.
If I'm not mistaken, I recently read about a class-action lawsuit being filed in the United States against Roblox, which includes parents with children who have been affected by these things.
I don't know anything about the other things you mention in the post, I'm just highlighting this about this game because, personally, a game with that bad reputation doesn't inspire any confidence in me.
Thanks for your opinion. That's something that bothers me too. I'm not going to invest in the stock, but my kids bug me about buying Roblox or Minecraft for some time, and both the voices about malicious users, and events like this massive content removal are worrying..
I honestly believe (with all the ignorance I currently possess) that Minecraft is a better option than Roblox because at least with Minecraft your children can play without needing an internet connection. In contrast, Roblox absolutely requires an internet connection to be used, and that brings many dangers. Minecraft is an excellent option for playing solo in creative mode or with friends in survival mode. It's safe, since you don't have to worry about anything without an internet connection.
That's really helpful, thanks again!
It's a real pleasure.
