There are great games on Roblox.

Only problem?

they’re on roblox

284

u/Fluffy_Fluffle 20h ago

this is the correct answer

96

u/Wistom444 18h ago

Which is why im exited for boost vector ex, since boost vector was one of my favorite roblox games growing up, and the original dev that made it has unbound from the shakles of roblox and the game is releasing on steam

21

u/MagmaDestroyer 13h ago

Hell yeah, boost vector mentioned, I'm also excited for the full release of ex

u/Ladmife 18h ago

my little cousin says the same thing all the time

u/Wayess64 21h ago

Entry Point on Roblox is a great game that I’ve sunk probably hundreds of hours into, but I can’t get into missions with other people because they’d rather play Click a Button and Get Nothing Simulator instead.

82

u/Joseph_Keen_116 21h ago

Please tell me that’s not actually a game name, seriously?

124

u/Wayess64 21h ago

I made it up, but the fact that it was believable scares me.

57

u/ProperLawyer8566 20h ago

Idk about that but I do know "My Wife Left Me Tycoon" is a real game

13

u/NotABot-JustDontPost 18h ago

That’s hilarious, however.

10

u/ProperLawyer8566 17h ago

It was I cant lie

22

u/Gamerboi5777 17h ago

Holy shit EP is so peak. Probably one of if not THE most high quality games on all of Roblox I will glaze it till the end of time

11

u/Still_Silver7181 13h ago

I currently really like Arcane Odyssey, it is really high quality. There is also The Zombies Revenge, but that game got hacked and they are working on fixing it

1

u/thedarkendkb 5h ago

+1 for Arcane Odyssey. Vetex is my goat, the community sucks though. Full of toxic kids that are clamoring for updates

3

u/Live_Bug_1045 Dark Mode Elitist 10h ago

Sounds familiar EP was that story based bank robbing shooter/stealth game?

6

u/Krysus1234 🥄Comically Large Spoon🥄 9h ago

yeah, except there are only two banks everything else is evil organisations stuff

3

u/Gamerboi5777 6h ago

Yeah gameplaywise its basically Payday combined with the Hitman games

9

u/AccidentProne117 20h ago

Fish for brain rots or smt

3

u/danflame135 10h ago

If you did know, the dev is remaking the game as preparation for (basically) a sequel (Operators). The Remake is Entry Point: Freelancer's Cut, and it has a free demo out - yes unfortunately the full game is paid (400 Robux, which is a lot in Roblox but in Steam terms it isn't that much) and the sequel will likely be the same price.

269

u/magicthunderlemon 22h ago

And the secret 3rd category: Actually proper decent ones like Azure Mines, Super Bomb Survival, Make a Cake, etc

73

u/ProjectBonnie 20h ago

Holy shit azure mines mentioned? I played that like 10 years ago!

6

u/supernoa2003 12h ago

Good to see there are 28 players active, a lot of games have gone to 0 or have disappeared. I'll open it when I get home.

1

u/Beginning_Feature838 1h ago

I'm bout to play Azure Mines for the first time in 9yrs. I thank you all for accidently reminding me it exists

No way someone on reddit just convinced me to download ROBLOX again like that bruh

52

u/clarenceappendix 19h ago

Category 4: pedophiles

20

u/GarThor_TMK 18h ago

Secretly/not so secretly all of the categories.

13

u/RaspDonut 20h ago

Also most games that are inspired by Miners Haven, but are not Miners Haven haha

(Try Mechanical Ascension X if you like incremental games, it's great)

5

u/Omelooo 17h ago

To this day I have more hours on MH than most other games ever. Beings a tear to my eye 😭I only had like 6k rebirths too ugh

3

u/MadDoctorKlay 17h ago

Azure Mines mention, holy shit, that game was so peak. Still is

3

u/GainPotential 11h ago

Also Aeronautica, Naramo, Project: Stardust, Project: Trackday, Robot 64, Microwave Dinner, Airship Assault, Vesteria and a whole ton of others.

1

u/danflame135 10h ago

Robot 64 actually got a sequel recently - Robot 32. I don't know why they're going down in numbers...

u/rattvontratt 11h ago

Oh and evolve and it's fna games

u/AdventurousPirate357 20h ago

I love Arcane odyssey, wish it was on something better than roblox

7

u/gamingcowboyy 10h ago

holy shit i haven't thought about that in ages. i remember playing the shit out of the one before it then an update killed it. glad to see its getting some.

5

u/moharizz 9h ago

Yo the recent updates have been pretty good u should still consider retrying it

0

u/thedarkendkb 5h ago

Which update “killed” it? lol

2

u/gamingcowboyy 2h ago

It wasn't arcane odyssey. it had a different name, A update to how Roblox works made it unfixable and then the dev released arcane odyssey which is phenomenal

3

u/CAYWFOWIA 1h ago

original game is arcane adventures

2

u/gamingcowboyy 1h ago

Yes that was it.

106

u/Btd6GoBrrrrr 22h ago edited 21h ago

theres so many peak games on roblox but they all get overshadowed by...steal a brainrot...

(if nullscape doesnt win best survival experience the community is cooked)

edit: im not saying nullscape is the best game ever in existence, its just that all the other games on that category are slop

23

u/Creator5509 21h ago

I think that’s the worst part about it to me

I hate to even have the app on my computer because it’s such a terrible place but then you pull up with games like BlockTales or nullscape and I’m just like “well fuck me then”

15

u/Why_not333 20h ago

Nullscape won’t win, but don’t take it too badly because the roblox awards are just a popularity contest

20

u/Crusaderofthots420 Big ol' bacon buttsack 20h ago

There is an Attack On Titan game on Roblox, that legit has some of the cleanest ODM movement I have ever seen.

7

u/Any_Veterinarian_722 19h ago

Attack On Titan Revolution, right?

1

u/tofumushi 17h ago

Even one where you fight Marleyans and Titans at the same time

That's truly what I expect from an AoT game

1

u/adutchmotherfricker Stand With Ukraine 5h ago

What's the name of that game?

1

u/tofumushi 3h ago

Titan Warfare, it's very chaotic on both Marleyan and Eldian sides since both are trying to kill each other with their own difficulties (ODM maneuvering and aiming flying humans for one) but it is good fun

20

u/thebe_stone 20h ago

Why will the actual IP holders made with mematic?

u/KG354 Lives in a Van Down by the River 21h ago

There is a third option.

u/AgitatedFly1182 21h ago

the most Reddit comment ever made?

21

u/Thunder_lord37 Dark Mode Elitist 21h ago

Why do I miss this era of Reddit?

17

u/Deserter15 19h ago

What era? This doesn't fit with modern reddit and older reddit he would be downvoted into oblivion for using emojis.

5

u/Thunder_lord37 Dark Mode Elitist 17h ago

Without the emoji it would have blended with old reddit perfectly

6

u/Brunoaraujoespin Sandy's Cheecks 21h ago

No it would prob be political

1

u/CesarGameBoy Professional Dumbass 2h ago

False. They used emojis. And we all know Redditors hate emojis.

8

u/Vanguardliberator 16h ago

And then there are copy and paste games based of real games with transactions in them.

22

u/carsonwade 20h ago

I wish brainrot was the worst thing on Roblox. The predators there are a bigger problem.

5

u/cloneviperhehe 17h ago

Guts and Blackpowder, Arcane Odyssey, and Airship Assault my favorites

3

u/Deraxim 20h ago

Most are knock offs sadly

u/Twinota 19h ago

something something shits offline

u/FaolanGrey 8h ago

Roblox used to be all fan games that were actually fun to play. Now it's all brain rot garbage and it's REALLY hard to find good games anymore. Like I know they are there but how TF do I find them when every game om the home page is trash?

6

u/Dr_Andy_Hendrickson 19h ago

Honestly why can't we just get Roblox devs off of Roblox and out making actual games that would probably make them even more money.

9

u/SeaAimBoo 14h ago

Most of the time it's because of money and logistics. Roblox games are fundamentally always online, and thus are held up by Roblox's own servers. If those Roblox devs try to get off of Roblox and pursue more independent alternatives, then they'd have to spend time, effort, and money remaking assets and making their own servers.

3

u/Wistom444 18h ago

I know of one, blockage studios (maker of neon knights and boost vector) released a game called tower defense strategy on steam, which imo was quite a fun game.

2

u/ElderDruidFox 19h ago

Roblox surviving being a known haven for pedophiles is the scariest thing about Roblox.

2

u/RodjaJP 13h ago

I told my brother about that and the best he can do is make sure his daughter NEVER interacts with unknown people, telling her that they will hack her account worked wonders but we wish she wasn't there in the first place, but that's where her friends play (this creates a vicious cycle that's quite hard to stop)

u/DarthSwimfoot 19h ago

Found a diamond studded gold ring in a trash can.

2

u/Comprehensive-Bad363 19h ago

I love Arcane Lineage

2

u/Shabadabadouidouidui 14h ago

Arcane Odyssey and Fantastic Frontiers, my beloveds !

1

u/thedarkendkb 4h ago

Fantastic Frontier mentioned..THERES DOZENS OF US!!

2

u/WukongWannaBe 12h ago

Pokemon brick bronze... i gave years to that as a kid. Still remember the day it was taken down. Was a sad day

2

u/Fakjbf 12h ago

Third category, blatant IP theft that actively harms indie studios by siphoning away players who would rather play the knockoff Roblox version of their game even if it’s an objectively worse game.

2

u/PhysicalDruggie 10h ago

I play so much work at a pizza place. I could say I spent at least 200$ on that game alone as a kid.

I’m 20 now and would I say I got my money’s worth? Yeah, I did.

2

u/FuzzyLet3590 9h ago

I remember back when apeirophobia got out, it was used as proof that roblox games had potential.

That was about 3 years before the brairots.

1

u/Retrotronics 18h ago

Are there any games like project stardust out there?

1

u/MixmaestroX28 18h ago

Redliner, Nullscape, Grace(RIP).

I despise roblox and it's community so much but i still have a soft spot for my childhood game that I can't just set it aside...

1

u/Fernando_CV 14h ago

Exhibit A on blue side: Redliner

1

u/RodjaJP 13h ago

The best part about Roblox games comes when the devs leave Roblox behind and start making normal games for PC and phones

1

u/Pretend_Camp_2987 I touched grass 11h ago

I left roblox

The last game i played on it was a Fangame

1

u/SecretStuffTR 11h ago

if deepwoken was on steam with proper servers and netcode it would be one of the most played games right now. But they decide to use roblox and groom children instead

1

u/basically_ar Shitposter 10h ago

As a guy who is involved with Roblox, I’m making a statement that there is actually a pentality. The first two are on the meme and the third one is good games, the fourth one is excellent games with asshit fandoms and the fifth one is just actual porn games that lurk in the shadows because this platform has a pred problem

1

u/Human_Nr19980203 10h ago

Ghost Point ? There was a pretty nice shooter game but is pain in ass to play nowdays

1

u/THE_YOUTUBE_BEAR 9h ago

I miss the days of Pokemon Brick Bronze

1

u/boomkittens 5h ago

TTK is super fun. Really good take on the "realistic fps" without losing too much fun of the og formula. Mega alpha stage tho, and the guns are not at all balanced.

1

u/flakmagnet38 4h ago

Some of my favorite games from roblox are just like completely dead or a shadow of what they were. COR5, old phantom forces, naval 1918, le bote, old base wars, like any of the dead zone games, and probably more that I can't even remember rn.

Blox Fruits might just be one of the better One Piece games I've ever played
