It's a lot older than Minecraft. A lot better, too.

ROBLOX is a game in which you play as blocky characters and you can pretty much create whatever.
As long as you have 10 dollars to spare.

ROBLOX came out before Minecraft, Minecraft didn't copy ROBLOX.
They just have similar art styles and gameplay. Kind of.

Don't play it. Its filled with a bunch of 10 year old's trying to make good Sonic OC's.
Sadly, I was one of them.
I've never been the same since.
Black lives matter

Recommend me shoegaze and ambient music.

I'll just consider it the 'Minecraft before Minecraft'. Doesn't sound too interesting anyway.

Its Minecraft if Minecraft had a more annoying fanbase, unoriginal games, terrible mods who do nothing, and wasted potential.

Minecraft doesn't have wasted potential, because they keep adding potential. And artists use that potential to create awesome stuff.

Minecraft got old after a few weeks. Some of the mods are good, but only hold me over for so long. Sandboxes aren't really my strong suit.

Nah, I do alright with shooters. Just not used to this game. Though having a full chaotic bot brawl is fun :P

Well, not really though.

Roblox if anything is a Lego Rip-off. You essentially play as a little Lego man, joining servers that contain maps.

Some of the maps used to be great. The obstacle course maps were fun, and there was a great map where you had to build a large boat and navigate it through a obstacle course to reach a kind of end zone.

Galleon combat was also great.

I can't speak for the game in its current state since its been a long time since I played, but it used to be something okay.

There were some really fucking amazing naval and aerial battle games in there.

I used to play a game called "Blockland", which was essentially a Lego rip-off as well. But from what I heard, it literally started out as a Lego game, but Lego never got back to him so he just ditched the Lego namesake and made his own game.

It's a story-based FPS with light RPG content and progression, involving a massive floating city in the early 1900s obsessed with American patriotism. Honestly you should just play and see for yourself.

Yeah, I'll probably get it.

I annoy myself with games. Right before I complete them, I lose interest and stop playing them. I've got about 5 games that I have to get around to completing.

Well first of all, you only need money for cosmetics. All the tools are there whether you play free or not.

Secondly, there is a clan "scene" where they can be mature at times and actually act their ages.
