I played it with my kids. We kinda did a Lan thing, using Discord to communicate. It was fun for that especially when we play a hide and seek game. I also used it to make a game, even paid for premium because was told it’s how you can get paid. But I never saw money and I let it go.

But since Roblox is a “forever game” with a bit of everything, it’s easy to see why they don’t: they can find different games there and it’s much easier to bring your digital friends over
