- We've talked about classic Roblox avatars before, but what about classic Roblox games? After all, Roblox is a gaming platform, not a fashion show. There are plenty of classic Roblox games that are still available for you to play right now, but unfortunately, since many of them are so old and were created with a very limited set of tools, most of them are broken or just simply not fun. Fortunately, though, there are still some diamonds in the rough. Which classic Roblox games still hold up today? These are the classic-era Roblox games that are still fun to play.

Just a quick clarification - I am not trying to claim that this video covers *every* fun classic game out there, there's no way I could do that in a reasonable amount of time! I just tried to cover as many as possible. If you know of a classic game I didn't cover here and you want people to know about it, pop it in the comments :)

One thing to consider about old ROBLOX is that the front page had a super high turnover. New games constantly became popular, so even if they were simple, they didn't have to hold our attention for very long, cos we would soon move on to the next big thing. When I first played in 2008, the most popular game would only have around 50 concurrent players, so it's not surprising that what was popular could be completely different from one day to the next.
38:55 him: not going to face reveal 3 seconds later:
This, it's really rare to find variety in games nowadays, because most of the stuff you see on the front page is just the same everyday games. Even then, I feel like the recommended for you page is just too small
It's also pretty necessary to add that server size was *limited* as all hell, meaning that it was MUCH more difficult for games to sustain (or even achieve) the critical mass of people that continue attention beyond that initial appearance on the front page
I dont remember the last time I saw a major shift in the front page. like, every few months a single new shitty ptw dopamine inducing pile of garbage claws its way into the cesspool that is the front page, but thats about it.
@@inkorporeal204 Back then in order to even be in frontpage was to have the most visits, right now when i see the popular page, I always see games that is not as popular on it for some reason? Like I have seen 3k player game next to a 100k player game, like it is just completely rigged on how popular a game actually is these days.
While not "old", i really miss playing the older tycoon games and still think theyre fun to play and experience the nostalgia. Hell, the first game i ever played was superhero tycoon. On a side note, i agree more people should play Base wars, that game was really fun
do you remember that superman tycoon game
2p gun factory tycoon, after years, I finally beat it
McDonald’s tycoon, superhero tycoon, 2 player wizard tycoon, and clone tycoon are all classics
@@seva7500 yes all those games made my childhood. Without them roblox wouldnt be what is now.
@@seva7500 i used to play pizza factory tycoon back in 2018/2019 in my school computer lol
I really do miss the old roblox building style where everything was built brick by brick instead of everything being modelled in blender and imported it was very charming and beautiful and the added benefit was the map destruction that was possible because of it - I remember so many old games like " the end of robloxia " that relied on map destruction as the main gimick and I honestly miss it
the end of roblox by kadenzombie8 and is a remaster of amazeman’s game. it has this brick built style and that map destruction and it is super fun. it combines a classic style with modern scripting and gameplay and is overall a joy. the old building style of older games is probably one of their biggest strengths and i think games like that today with modern improvements would absolutely be top notch.
I love the old blocky style! There’s really quite the charm tbh. That’s why I play Retrostudio, it’s just so cool!
Exactly Roblox used to be the Lego block game now it’s just recreating cod or stuff like that.
Don’t get me wrong I love hopping on Roblox every once in awhile and playing some of the games cause they are good but just not the feel I want.
@@EthanHebert- I don't fault roblox for moving past it's lego block aesthetic , with the introduction of devEX it was enevitable games would get competitive with their graphics to attract more users.
But I do miss those early days where roblox games were simple & blocky.
I really miss that old blocky look too. While yeah the newer style looks more modern, I don't really see the appeal. Especially with how many games these days just really aren't that great. I'm genuinely curious to know what games people like to play these days
Survive and kill the killers in area 51 (the original one) is still such a banger after many years of playing it and I'm so happy that it still gets updated, and that the player base is very stable
i was looking for this comment, i love this game sm
fr though!
Im the guy in the thumbnail :P
i think the main appeal of old roblox was that it definitely felt more like a online social hangout than now. games were so bare bones that it felt like you were battling legos with random people. aside from the obvious fact that i'm no longer the same age as i was 12 years ago, i feel like roblox has become a much more advanced engine to the point where it's no longer possible to feel the same feeling from that era. people are either making cash grabs or insanely impressive videogame experiences where it's not as possible to feel that way.
Pretty much exactly this ^ What games do people even play now that are actually good? Because most if not all just look like cash grabs or just look terrible, but I'm genuinely curious to know what people like to play these days
@@alkimia1791 Some fun games are Zeppelin wars remastered and Traitor Town. You should check them both out
@@alkimia1791ngl I’ve actually found a lot of pretty cool games, they obviously don’t give that old feeling anymore but they give me a bit of hope for the future games of Roblox

@@alkimia1791i personally am a big fan of phighting! it's a red team vs blue team class based fighter game, with 14 classes to choose from currently. it's really fun & the community is super nice to beginners :-)
I like it how you actually consider if old Roblox was actually good.
I think that really only the community was better back in the day, the games were fun. But not as improved and detailed as the newest Roblox games. Thanks for not showing bias.
Yeah when the forums were still alive it was so good.
I liked the looks and aesthetics of the old Roblox, along the community, though I think the physics engine of today is better.

I think the reason pizza place managed to survive for so long is that roblox games entered the ' app era ' sometime around the late 2010s, now-days if you can make a simple game to entertain a mobile audience you've secured yourself an easy bag since parents who let the Ipad raise their kids will spend hours upon hours on the most mind numbingly boring games

Do you have a link for it? I can’t find it anywhere
Never mind! I found it
Natural Disaster Survival living for 15 years is insane. I think the fun chaos + diversity of maps + effects of the disasters make it deserve its popularity. It's so simple yet so fun. It is also still receiving new updates and maps which is cool!

As someone with an account from 2008 and started in 2007, I think why I miss roblox back then (aside from nostalgia) is because the simplicity was the charm. I used to play a lot of roleplaying games like the old high school and robloxaville map. The game was like a virtual, social lego game and your imagination was what made it come to life. With how overcomplicated things are now it feels like sensory overload and caters to the ipad kid demographic where the more complicated and distracting, the better.
Also, rip tix. I miss being able to buy clothes with virtual money.
You better tell me the name of this account otherwise i dont believe you
My favorite old roblox game was called something like "Elemental Wars" I think. Or it mightve been called Superhero Battle. There was more than 1, so I don't remember. But the concept was that you spawned near teleports that led you to rooms with givers (you know, those boxes that gave you tools) and each teleport was themed around one elemental power.
It was _incredibly_ basic with most classes having the same "shoot" and "path" tools, just colored the same as their element, with some giving unique items (like Wind gave you that staff tool that blows other players away).
I remember breaking the game because you could use the paths to fly back up to the teleport/giver rooms, and just collect every other power's items.
Now most of those tools and scripts are broken :/
Why would he care if u believe him?lol XD@@sau7255
@@sau7255What reason would he have for lying about this
dude seriously its so fucking absurd the games that are popular nowadays, all you get are dogshit gambling simulators with UI so cluttered its fucking nauseating and im like wtf is going on?? i miss when people actually put effort into their games because they wanted to make something cool and fun for others to check out instead of trying their hardest to make another shitty cash grab to get you addicted to gambling
They’re wrong about old ROBLOX being better, it’s the community that was better
what i believe is that they were fun for an audience that wouldn't expect anything more than those games and that's exactly why they're so beloved
True. This is meant for a community where a game actually running was a wonder
Survive the Disasters was also the first game I ever bought a gamepass for… which was back in 2019 lmao. I still honestly love the first game, I played it recently for about 2 or so hours. Never got into the sequel all that much tbh, I just like the classic simplicity more than modernized stuff.
the sequel is actually underrated (because not many people were aware of it) but it's still pretty good.
I've been playing roblox since 2012, and to be completely honest the current state of Roblox games just kind of blows and I still believe that the older iterations of the platform were more enjoyable for me.
Not because of the fact that the website changed, the removal of a free currency (which enabled heavy botting), or because the overall art direction switched from a more lego like style. I actually very much love seeing how much the platform has grown and evolved in terms of server quality and character creation.
Its less enjoyable because of the content of the games themselves. Prior groups like Mad Studio eventually setting the norm for roblox game development nowadays, the games were just created by fellow users and rarely had much of a profit incentive in mind. Because of this, many games were variations of current popular platform specific trends (think sword fighting and stamper tool building games) with their own personal deviations.
The Personal Server feature is also something I genuinely feel was a massive boon to the community thats since fallen into utter obscurity since its removal. I have so many fond memories interacting with the hosts of these servers and building stuff together with complete strangers. I even had a personal server at one point that managed to amass 100 visits and have like 30-50 concurrent players all building together with the tools roblox provided.
The Roblox Forums community prior to Quackity ruining everything by turning them into a complete meme (after his raids more and more new users popped up with the sole intent to troll) and getting them removed had so many people who would just ask others to test out their cool little hang out or pvp games and we would all play together. Astrians OT bunker was another common hangout spot I remember vividly.
Ever since the removal of personal servers, the forums, and the shift from individuals to large profit driven game group studios, the games just don't feel the same anymore and I often find myself rotating between the same 5 or 6 older games whenever I play on the platform.
Very well-reasoned argument. I definitely enjoyed the late 2010s era the most in terms of gameplay; then again I only joined in 2016 so my experience is kind of uneducated lol
i joined 2012 but roblox wasnt that fun back then, moving blocks and cooking pizzas wasnt that fun
Ugh, I miss the personal servers. It’s such a shame that they got rid of it. It was so fun when people would host their own mini games and make a “beat the obby for admin!” place.

Work at a pizza place is so goated, I would literally fight others to become the manager. Now I still play it & grind for the coins. Love the game so much, big part of my childhood & still is a big part of my life to this day.
I wish more CZcamsrs brought up classic underrated games since it is hard to find these due to them being hidden behind a huge wall of overrated, low-quality, highly profitable games. Thanks for making this video. I've found a lot of interesting games to play. Keep it up bro.
I'm starting to remember why I had to step away from this game lol I remember the home page being filled with low quality, overrated crap all the time. Nothing really caught my attention anymore
Old roblox doesn't compare to "real games" but is comparable to flash games which everyone knows was great innocent fun. For new games they can sometimes still fit that description but most of the time it's just corporate money making games.
maybe because THEY REMOVED TIX
@@romanempirelolfnThey removed Tix because it would eventually bankrupt Roblox, as you were able to convert Tix into Robux, and the main way Roblox earned money was through Robux. If Tix wouldn't be removed, most people would've got Robux for free by converting Tix, and not by paying money.
@@romanempirelolfntix was removed because people were exploiting it. robloxs economy would have crashed had they kept tix on the platform
rip flash
I might be the only person who unironically thinks old roblox was 100x better. roblox was less corporate, we had a great community, we had amazing seasonal events like egg hunts and winter games. If stuff like mad paintball 2 and medieval warfare were still around, I'd be playing those (and I know they aren't gone, just dead).
Dude I VIVIDLY remember playing the majority of these games especially the bloody mary one. I remember when the button that teleports you actually worked and you get sent to the chair there was like a 50/50 chance of you getting completely stuck in it and having to restart the entire thing. Once you finally made it past that though it was so rewarding at the time and was overall such a fun experience.
im the guy in the thumbnail the dude in the red, i even have evidence, his username is Bakgkuon
I loved not old games but old roblox. It was not so supportive of p2w games as now and it had very fun events especially egg hunts and Halloween.
You're on a roll when it comes to making roblox videos that no one has really thought of before! Its very interesting getting to see how certain roblox developers from back then managed to essentially smash rocks together in just the right way to create a bright and raging fire that persists today! As for the editing, I really like how you're able to convey everything you need to with just music, that little talk about the chaos of base wars in its prime felt so much more meaningful with the music in the background. Of course you have the normal editing that feels snappy and constantly moving. A bit disappointed there weren't any really obscure games on this list, but hey, the best ones are the ones everyone clings Ig.
Other stuff I really liked:
16:56 same
18:33 not sure if this is satire or not, but the implication of the same blood decal being plastered everywhere being too much for youtube is absolutely hilarious
31:56 Glad you suffered through survive the disasters 2 as I did, it was a hell as a child, but a fun hell, nontheless.
Keep making the roblox videos that no one else will, Nitrolord! Thanks for giving me another reason to procrastinate on important work.

Make a cake and feed a giant noob was my first roblox game I played it’s so nostalgic for me
Cool!
I remember the late 2000’s early 2010’s when my brother and I would play some of these older games. Work At A Pizzeria, will forever be a stable of my childhood.
Old Roblox had a charm to it that just cant be replicated anymore. It used to be that every game stuck to the theme that you were a block character in a world of blocks and the whole game stuck with that theme. Each place was like a different level that took place in this world of blocks. Now Roblox is a platform full of simulator games that don't really have that identity anymore. You have full-on Call of Duty and Forza clones now that were made by studios full of developers who get paid. Old Roblox games were made by a singular person who made it for the fun of it. The limit of everything being simple and blocky that required a bit more imagination definitely had a charm. In the end, modern and classic Roblox are so radically different that they can't really be compared.
there was one roblox game i use to playh back when i first joined witch was called zombie assult that game had a full on cutscene when you first go into a game lobby ( you dropped down into the map and the cutscene would play) and you never saw that in any other old roblox game and i always thought it was unqie for that. like it was an actual story driven game. to bad it has fallen to the way side cause in my thoughts it should be part of roblox history for that. ( started in 08 and still have my og account)

One game I've been playing since release is Strife. It is a classic and I believe its one of the few fighting games on Roblox to pioneer its genre of arena-class based fighting games. Great game as always man.
I LOVE THAT GAME!
A 2016 low quality classic game was an rpgs, fight the monsters (which I think was made way before 2016), and it’s sequel, battle of titans. I played the hell out of those low quality rpgs and they still are partially intact and are mostly playable and get some players on it here and there. Good times 😊
There was also a rpg about guests
There are so many games I used to love playing, but now that they're dead, it's kind of sad... Games like Flood Escape, Catalogue Heaven, Roblox High School, and the original Bake a Cake and feed a noob were some of my favorite games as a kid.
This video was so nostalgic! Survive the Disasters was also the first game I ever bought a game pass for. Although I don’t play roblox anymore I definitely miss the feeling of playing these simple games for hours on end.
The Hole In The Wall game is also based off of a game show of the same name that was airing when the game came out!

I think the only way to make the old games truly fun is to play the games in an accurate way to how they were. For example playing the games on Super Nostalgia Zone or using a third party revival
When you said "sword fighting is dead" i nearly flinched lmaoo. It really is. Im a mobile sword fighter, i usually play on sword fight arena since SFOTHO OG lacks mobile shiftlock, its always the same 30 players. 😢 im not an old player by any means, i joined in 2017 and didnt switch from console to mobile till 2020, and have been sword fighting since then, but its always been steadily losing players over time. Very sad, sword fighting is so fun😊
Oh my goodness, I used to play survive the disasters all the time in mid 2015. It was my childhood and I absolutely loved that game. Wish it had more players though, it deserves it. Thanks for reminding me of it.
the early 2010's was such a good era of roblox, 2007-08 might be what many people consider classic but when i played in 2010 the game was completely wild, it had alot more experimental games that pushed roblox very hard, i seen so much crazy stuff and it was happening so fast that before i knew it people where using roblox meshes and mushing them together to make more complex models and it completely changed so many games, it was also the era that introduced many flaws like the 2012 april fools accident and the more obscure 2014-15 c00lkid accident (which was honestly the funniest exploiter raids because they would plaster a red guy everywhere and spam illuminati and mlg particles)
The era gave birth to many overhauls and games that are still praised and remembered to this day, the game did improve more after 2015 but it had a downpour with the community and roblox as the barrier started to raise to where only investors get the treatment we used to.

Does anyone remember Heroes of Robloxia? It wasnt too old but definitely forgotten, no one talks about it anymore and nor no one really plays it anymore..
I’m 22. I remember my first encounter with Roblox that came up as an ad sometime on the internet when I was 5 or 6. My dad made my account and I was just in the 1st grade and I remember the grey skybox and the red roof house. I remember the rainbow force field that took the shape of the Roblox character when you just spawned. I remember the green circle that you could use to click on the floor to get anywhere. I remember the “blup” sound you would make when you jumped. Wasn’t really active in it until around 2009 though, where I played with a lot of my friends from school and man, it has changed so much. I understand I’m so so much older than pretty much everyone who plays it but they really missed the golden age. I stopped playing when they got rid of tickets, for me it wasn’t the same Roblox I grew up with but it’s so crazy to see how far it has come
theres this 19th century team deathmatch about the napoleonic wars called Blood & Iron (2009) which has a very active playerbase at 500 concurrent players and 68M visits, it still works and gets updated very frequently even after 14 years of it existing. its a fun game to play if youre bored
hmmm i think thats the first geography roblox game
Fantastic video Nitrolord, this brought back lots of games I had totally forgotten about! You covered a hefty amount of games in this video, well done!
I used to play Base Wars all of the time, now you've made me remember it and want to play it again, so thank you.
A video that i would open just to make sounds while studying and just focus on the vid. No too many subjective elements, fun video and editing. Loved it
It's been awesome watching your channel grow since about
Started playing roblox in 2009 and I recognized almost every game on this video. Such a throwback! I want classic sword fighting games to make a come back.
Survive the disasters is the first game I can remember playing.. I have a fond memory of making my first account about 7 years ago now and trying to figure out how me and my older cousin can’t see each other despite being in the same location (no understanding of servers). It is one I look back on with a smile and I still play it from time to time to remember it.
even though i am very very young when i started playing roblox, about 4 or 5 yo of something. this video give me time to think of what stuff i have done and why i will never be able to see those memory ever again. you deserved support!
glad you included other games such as 2010-2012 games, some of the best classic roblox games
I just want to say your videos have been fantastic lately and I think you'll definitely reach higher levels such as toastedcherries if you keep at it! I've recently gotten back into creating Roblox content and I love talking about Roblox whether it would be on the nostalgia side or what's currently on the platform. I feel like you resonate with me a lot since you talk about classic roblox and I hear that you used to be a Geometry Dash obsessor and a fan of the Papa Louie flash games. You should definitely hit me up some time as a fellow Roblox nostalgia enjoyer! :D
Honestly, I think the actual reason people like old roblox isn't because of nostalgia, but the simplicity of the games and the style.
There were less items to wear, more basic games with creative ideas and concepts, basically more things to do, customization of profile and etc.
I totally forgot base wars existed until you mentioned it. That game was so chaotic I remember having a lot of fun with it :)
If you do a part 2, I'd highly recommend 1dev2's Welcome To The Town of Robloxia and the spiritual successor Robloxity.
Neither of these games I feel really hold up all that well today, but I feel the building and detail were pretty ahead of their time.
truestar’s old cart rides still hold up, cart ride tycoon through a castle is my favorite one. they’re really nostalgic for me and they’re calming and fun. i recommend it to anyone who likes chill cart rides
you're really underrated man, this is really interesting, keep making these!
i joined 2010 as a guest, 11 as a user. hole in the wall was the first game i ever played because i saw it on tv. & jet wars were some of my fav games. i miss old roblox and the comm.
as a brickbattler, i do appreciate the inclusion of crossroads (though i prefer the tob version) as it is my favorite brickbattle game after brickbattle frenzy and chaos canyon (two amazing brickbattle games which get little to no players).
also your content is absolutely amazing, i genuinely think you are one of the greatest roblox youtubers there are.
With old Roblox, it was common running into administrators and playing with them. I had a ton of famous people and admins add me but because of the 2015 friends update, they just follow me now
the followers update was the most stupid and useless shit they ever decided to add, now i have no clue who all my old friends were since their all sitting in my followers list which i'll never look at

Man I used to play Base Wars so much back then. For me the most fun part about it was that it never ended. There is no objective, there is no win condition, you would just do better or worse and people would come and go. Sadly when I tried to play it again a few months ago I didn't find it as fun. imo they added too much, what was a simple deathmatch game turned into a weird RPG-FPS hybrid with way too many subclasses. Before it was still somewhat unfair with how the progression system worked but it wasn't as terrible. Old base war was simple and fun, and that's all it needed to be.
I also remember I really enjoyed one update that barely lasted that made it so vehicles would get destroyed piece by piece, so if you shot the tank's cannon it'd stop working. I used to shred air vehicles with the dual chainguns, or snipe off the turrets, good fun. Later they removed this, but made it so you could snipe people off airplanes, I loved doing that.
For some reason they made it so the games end, it doesn't really change anything because it just respawns you on the same map though.
I think a game that you cold have added in to this list would be blood and iron, it was created in 2009 and it still averages 400-600 players often and gets consistent updates.
I was going to wonder where SFT was, but I waited and it was on honorable mentions.
I want to cry, I've had a lot of memories there --- especially getting the festive sword valkyrie from an xmas event before for that game. I will miss you SFT, but I won't forget you, you were a good game.
Thank you. I’m someone who’s not a really old roblox player but I have always liked the idea of it and the history of it I’ve never found anyone else who had liked it with out being from that time
my jaw genuinely opened in excitement the moment i heard you say “Base Wars”. that game was my CHILDHOOD. i remember wanting to spend every waking moment on the family computer grinding out Base Wars. i even made paper models of the guns in that game. thanks for untapping some near and dear childhood core memories of mine
we dont miss old roblox we just miss the old community and when roblox actually cared edit: we also miss it because of the actual care put into the popular old games
SurviveTHE Disasters is literally the best game,IM SO HAPPY YOU COVERED IT.
I used to play it my friend for hours on end in like grade 1.... those times were good
the disasters used to be so hard too, like a remember a disaster in which slices of cake spawned and they tried to hunt you down but my friend thought they were friendly and died,and the fact that everyone one used to hide in the shop
I think what a lot of people mean by missing old roblox is when a lot of the games you could play were still new concepts and completely original between each other.
old roblox games are still fun but it really depends on your expectation of the game. if you were to join thinking it would be the best looking game then no. if you join having the purpose to have fun and socialize then yes this is mainly why hangout games are so popular
work at a pizza place is largely fun because of the janky physics,cars getting flung,players being flung,cars glitching through walls,the ovens exploding and launching players,trolling anyone trying to play the game as intended with the glitchy and hilarious physics engine
It’s only fun if ur playing with friends or the server ur in has funny people but finobe work at a pizza place was fire
5:33 Aw man... this makes me feel old haha. I used to play this game when it was still regularly updated
for base wars i played this either last year or 2 years ago and forgot the name, thank you man
If anybody likes the sword fighting genre of games and you want to play that kind of game more go and try randomly generated droids because basically the first weapon you even get in the game is a sword
I absolutely LOVED survive the disasters, it was also the first game I played, and I still love it to this day. The music is SO GOOD but it can get pretty boring. Either way, it’s still amazing 💯
man base wars was my go to game when i was a kid i cant believe how far roblox has come since then and now its wild
as an old og once said "You dont miss the old Roblox you miss being happy because u experienced something that hit diffrent and now u cant feel that same happiness because some of the players the cheer u up are either gone or had quit a long time ago"
long story short, people loved classic games BECAUSE they lacked complexity.
the fact that most if not all games just couldn't or didn't have a save function for stats and such meant that tycoons and resource gathering sandbox games had accidentally more replay value, and the games were built around that fact so they all took few hours to complete.
competitive games also meant that you could only farm out your "k/d" for one session.
I seriously miss it, and I hate that updates broke old games as they're the only reason I would even consider playing roblox.
That's what made them boring
I think for the most part as a kid most of the fun from those games was really just the players, if the old games had a bunch of servers and there would be new ones everyday I would totally play them

Community made roblox back than top games only had like 5-6 severs so you really felt like you were apart of something. Now when you join games it’s millions of people and 1000s of servers
@@Amackk0307 yea you could def run into ppl who u don't know
honestly it makes me so sad how some of the older most popular games are completely dead now, i wish we could have a revival of some sort and bring back some of the classics like sword fighting tournament, call of robloxia, zombie tower but nowadays people only give a shit about fucking poop simulator x and skibidi toilet defense #45
i remember playing a very broken brickbattle copy game where everyone could change the time at the same time and you could place bombs without a cooldown, ect. however that games now lost to time.. probably from the owner taking it down or something but it still was very fun
Galleons and checkpoint racing were bangers
Epikrika would be proud. Amazing work!
no reply?
nvm

oh thats my own comment
@@lapnoobershutup
to be honest, my memories of 2017 to 2020 were the best for me. I always used to play zombie attack, the normal elevator and epic minigames with friends!
2017 is not old roblox 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
so? I really don’t care. I am just saying that those are one of my best memories in my life!
@@mepletv3022 he never said it was
@@TheBoringLlamain the context of the video talking about old roblox yes he was and 2017 is not old roblox 😂😂😂 idiot 😂😂😂😂
Ok I wasn't quite shocked when I heard Nitro mentioned Toasted cherries, but then when when I heard him mention Izzyzzz It was like a (NO WAY YOU ACTUALLY KNOW THAT )type moment.
i LOVE survive the disasters 2. I spent pretty a few months pretty much only playing it straight, and got really good at pacifist mode, and i actually got on the leaderboard for the highest pacifist streaks at the time, and my highest was 138. I was really proud of this moment, however after playing all the disasters many times and the game slowly dying more and more, i lost interest and eventually stopped playing. i still come back occasionally but i will always love it because man grinding that game out was so fun and i met some cool people there as well.
And natural disaster can be pretty fun when people pay for multiple disasters I still play this game to this day and it's still pretty fun the apple and the balloon kind of make it pay to win even though it's not that much and the compass is just nice to have to go to your favorite map even though a lot of players who play it now are either new players or small children but it can still be fun
Am i the only one who's played make a cake to feed the giant noob and not make a cake?
I remember checkpoint racing too. I remember when it was still really popular it was absolute chaos 🙂
My nostalgia lays in elemental battlegrounds. I remember playing it as a guest on a ipad. It's still fun to come back to time to time for me.
For some reason you sound like konekokitten idk if I was the only one

ah yes commit warcrimes
Hey 2011-2012 base war veteran player here. Can confirm. Especially over the summer. Those severs and chats used to be popping off on roblox, and skype those hot summer days at my pc. Long 10 hour gaming sessions back to back with apocalypse rising
as a 2015 player
I would love to go back but man new roblox is so much more fun
In my opinion, the Post-Classic Era was definitely the most enjoyable part of roblox history-atleast for me, that's where I made my best memories, and most classic roblox games were still functional and populated. The game just felt a lot more alive than and a lot less corporate every ever since they added dexex. Games aren't really made for fun anymore, at least most games. Also, I find all the "modern memeyness" and "cursedness" of modern roblox has lost most of it's charm by now for me. I rarely ever play roblox and for me any new games are only played for like 30 minutes. Though I have gone back to some old functional games and played them for hours with some buddies. I am not really like most "classic" elitists and, personally, I feel like 2017 was around when roblox really started to go downhill rapidly for me.
THIS IS NO SIMALATOR :(
Me and my brother used to play catolog heaven ALL the time and even though it isnt top played or most liked we still enjoy it. Even other games on this list like crossroads or doomspire brickbattle are fun to play even though its not popular. Proves how much roblox made it fun back then. Great video Nitro!
Its insane to me that the OFFICIAL roblox channel had that EXTREMELY low quality and not even to mention low FPS game trailer. Like you see the old framerate videos for nostalgia and creepypasta videos of what old roblox was like but unironically seeing that is crazy.
BROOOOOOOO
about 3 years back I was a HUGE FAN of checkpoint racing
sure, i was a couple years late, but even then people were still playing it and I would play it a lot
ah this brings me back, i do really miss old roblox but time affects everything including roblox
those bloody mary games kept me up at night - what a nostalgia trip
Brickbattle actually is still alive and doing well. GFink, The Creator of Temple of Brickbattle even made a remaster of the original crossroads and its very very good and I recommend trying it out. The Brickbattle Community is also very competitive and if you play it right Brickbattle can be a very fast paced game.
