    They say with great power comes great responsibility but roblox abused the power to make sure the bad games are on the front page due to it not being the most popular/well made games its now only the ones that rake in the big bucks so roblox itself is assisting the games by putting them on the front page and not the games that are as popular but less money driven.

      roblox implemented a new system, if your game doesn't make as much money, then its not on the front page, ive seen several games such as slap battles, TDS and many more who struggle to fight aggenst the games that just have a p2w option for EVERYTHING. its quite sad because most of these games, we have seen that the developers didnt want to resort to adding p2w assets but roblox messed everything up for these devs, so that they could get more money (even though they are a BILLION DOLAR COMPANY.) and the games that were already gamepass heavy, its not a huge deal for them, because they get more reognition. Its completely rigged for actual game devs who want to make there game good, and all of these copies of games and cash grabs are stealing all of the glory for themselves because roblox allows it.

    tds is the perfect example of a good, popular roblox game
    its towers are branched out, although its grindy you can expect atleast 2-4 refreshing updates, its gamepasses dont give a significant advantage, as I dont think theres someone crazy enough to spend 6k robux on a tower that can be obtained in the first 60 hours of playing the game
    you dont have to be a super pro lvl 200 with most of the event towers to enjoy the game, even badlands (third hardest gamemode) can be beaten with a squad of level 40 players if coordinated correctly
    honestly, tds is my favorite game on roblox currently, might be because most games are just trash but I just think its comforting

  • @NotAe_Username
    @NotAe_Username Před 4 měsíci +71

    If they were truly greedy, they’d ONLY keep towers like the engineer or cowboy ONLY behind a pay wall. Yet with engineer (Idk about cowboy anymore) you have the choice to pay for the tower or grind for it. Same with accel even tho he’s not a gamepass you can still purchase gems and buy him by doing that instead of grinding. Sure things like plushies or the premium and deluxe crates exist but they’re just skins that don’t give a special perk to them. Yeah sure event towers being locked behind a pay wall exists too but that may eventually change. So yes, TDS can be a little bit greedy here and there but they’re really a mix of greedy and generous I believe.

    • @endportex

    • @inigochicano
      @inigochicano Před 4 měsíci +7

      Watching the video and seeing how absolutely shit the robux conversion rate is, and how scummy Roblox truly operates, I don't think they are greedy at all, even with all this income they are barely getting by. Unlike other games TDS puts in quality and effort, they take time for animations, events, reworks etc. Other games in the genre are there to maximize profits, encouraging kids to gamble, and couldn't care less about the game, it's only a tool for them to make cash. But it isn't their fault either, Roblox is the real asshole here, the fact that not only do they tolerate but ENCOURAGE devs for this behavior, creating a system where the scummiest scumbags come out on top, no wonder it happens. This is all much more well explained in the video and I basically just regurgitated the info but I'm afraid not many people know about this. The system has to change, Roblox needs to change, telling people to "stop supporting these trash games" won't be enough, kids probably won't watch or understand this video and will keep draining their parents bank account which feeds the scummy devs and Roblox, a lawsuit in my eyes is the only way for things to truly change.

  • @PoweringIllegalization
    @PoweringIllegalization Před 4 měsíci +16

    I may not have not watched the whole thing, but since the main point is the question if TDS is greedy or not, its simply no.
    None of the main content, that being the gamemodes and permanent towers, are locked behind paywalls. The only things locked behind paywalls are optional content (Deluxe Crates, Phantom Crates, and past event towers) that is conisdered premium (these do not include skin bundles or stuff like Cowboy or Engineer since they are accessible by putting enough time into the game).
    And if ur thinking about "well what about the gamepasses", again thats optional content as well as just making the optional content you would put your time in, to something you get automatically with money if you don't want to make the effort into getting those said items.
    And as well since the game is made by multiple people, you cannot, and I repeat this, you CANNOT expect them to put everything free and accessible. If anything, one should be incredibly grateful that most of their optional content is accessible by putting in the time and effort (Weekly Quests, Pass Rewards, and just Login Rewards). Development costs a lot of money especially if ur in a team. Roblox dev ex rates are a whole another issue i wont be bothered to get into as the main focus point was if TDS is considered greedy or not.

    to be honest, it isn’t THAT greedy because you can/could’ve got everything that cost robux for free (except some skins I think) but compared to games to pet simulators which charge $250 for a VIRTUAL PET I think it is not p2w but just a option . in summary tds isn’t p2w compared to other games on Roblox but it it isn’t required, also all the devs need to be paid so it makes sense how some cosmetics/ merch is money.

    Honestly before they added the ability to restart map's i absolutly hated tds doing hardcore took like 2 hours and a half since you had to go back and wait for the elevator to get the specific map for the strategy and then someone (ussually me) would load in late and instantly lose and it was so frustrating but now that they added a ready button and restart map the game feels so much better

    Also the actual conversion rate (Based on the $1 --> 80 R$ transaction) would be $0.012 US dollars, which is much more than the 0.0035 they give, which means roblox is taxing robux transactions as soon as you buy them!

    heck, its not just the tower defense community thats suffering with gambling, a somewhat popular game called criminality added skin crates for over half a year, with a potential for golden skins which offer a "slight" advantage, like a faster reload or more damage / explosion radius. the platform is basically fugged cus of how common gambling is in more and more games. less is done about the content of the games and more about monetisation.

    tds is a very well made game but once they started rereleasing rare skins and more updates mainly based on robux, i ended up quitting. i started playing tds in 2021 and quit at the start of 2023. at first i thought they were greedy (which in a way they kind of are) (its roblox’s fault tho definitely) and i dont wanna spend bank on the game. i find it so unfair that skins from previous updates started getting rereleased (which makes the game pointless and the only thing u can do is grind endlessly or spend money for some skins that are worth nothing.) its sad but i believe tds will eventually die due to lack of updates and the gameplay getting repetitive, unless all of a sudden roblox fixes the stupid devEx rates. also great video, very informative and the first tds video ive watched in over a year. underrated.

    TDS was greedy in early 2023 (with the crates and stuff), but nowadays:
    1. TDS needs to pay off the hundreds of devs and QA testers it has. Roblox taxes both conversion rate and dev-ex, there's no option to ignore those.
    2. TDS grinding isn't as bad as it looks, engi and turret can easily be obtained within the span of a month.
    3. TDX is more greedy at this point, with overpriced gamepasses that aren't worth it.
