Error on my part at 3:59 I claimed toy defense was a copy of Toy Soldierz when that isn't true. Toy Defense released 3 years earlier than TSZ sorry for the mix up! Secondly, I'm not sure why I called BSS uninspired when it was one of the first well established simulators on the platform, I meant to put a different sim but mixed even more stuff up lol. For those wondering what the main underrated games I played were, here they are for yall in a list: 0:48 is 'Battle Buddies 2' 0:55 is 'Abyss World' 1:45 is 'Rostal' 3:05 is 'Robot 32 Demo' 4:22 is 'Ready 2 Die' 5:15 is 'I wanna test the game' Don't forget to subscribe, more content like this will drop.

Yeah I'd say it was original because you needed to do a lot more than just clicking everytime in one spot, you had a hive to store bees that have unique traits, enemies and bosses that can change the relaxing simulator to an rts out of nowhere Gas Station Simulator is one of those games that I would definitely call a simulator because it simulates the hard life of a gas station in the middle of nowhere Poor power, lack of supplies, teamwork, fees etc. and you lose the game if you go bankrupt

On that note, I'd like to mention Paradigm-Shift Tower Defense, it's a game I developed alongside some friends, we're doing a lot and hopefully we can somehow break this attention-grabbing mold and become something better. If you are looking for quality in your tower defense games, you can either pay 4 dollars for BTD6, or play PSTD for absolutely free. Loved the video, these informative ones really do help us devs in achieving what the player ACTUALLY wants; a good experience made with love and the player in mind.

what roblox needs is a game review system. people should be able to write reviews for games and we could even have official roblox game critiques who write essays about games and then give a final rating out of 10. u could then "search by rating" and be able to see what people have given 10/10 (if anything that good even exists on roblox currently). this would only work if the people reviewing the games are 17+ though. i believe this would encourage more devs to make a game worthy of being 10/10 edit: bots wouldnt be a problem because of age validation (u need to show ur ID/passport) and neither would lying about ur age. i agree with some of the other replies tho. within the game reviewing community, there would probably be trustworthy reviewers that rise BUT there is the problem of bribing people to make good reviews. either way, i think a review system is a step in the right direction

I can upload a video about an unknown game in a genre and get SMASHED by YT, meanwhile uploading cookie cutter garbage on whatever is popular is free views. It's really sad, and surely dissuades creators from giving attention to games that deserve it.

A little difficult but fun combat mechanics Decaying winter - wave defense survival teamplay game, the goal is to survive as long as possible, but it's very hard and has interesting gameplay mechanics. Zombie Stories - story game about zombies, also has 4 classes, each has its own unlockable weapons, quality game that's worth to try. Isle - adventure exploring game with horror elements. I wish i could forget it and play it again, it's a masterpiece of a game. Creeper chaos - "build a base" survival game in which you try to survive as a human or blow up people as a creeper. The Apocalypse - round based zombie survival game. Your goal is to survive until morning, hide and defend yourself from hordes of zombies while looking for food while trying to save ammo as much as possible.

We need a new platform, roblox is unsalvageable rn

With a lot of people bringing up Arcane Odyssey and how its gameplay loop and minimal MTX (almost entirely for cosmetic enhancements or for people who want to be annoying with global announcements) is a well appreciated change of pace as far as popular Roblox games go, it actually makes me wonder if replayability is arguably the most significant factor in a Roblox game's relevance.

Honestly Im just glad that there are still people who know look out for/talk for these sort of games - hidden amongst the detrius of cash grabs and clones, there's plenty of actually good games that are fun to play. Reminds me of this one I picked up called Project Stardust - it has all the qualities of fun to play, fun to replay, and a nice community, its just relatively underground. I think Roblox will truely day the day these sort of hidden gems run dry

There’s so many games I loved and would like to revisit but cannot find them again… it’s so bizarre. It feels like they just disappeared from the face of the earth and all those positive memories are gone.

The thing with Bee Swarm Simulator is that it pretty much set the pace for every other generic simulator afterwards. It's a good game (if progression can take months or even a year to truly reach the end of the game), and one I go back to every so often. Sure it can be boiled down to "Go to X for X amount of time to gather X amount" or "Kill X X number of times", but never have I felt like there wasn't something to do to try and progress.

You should 100% make a video on in my opinion one of the most well made games on Roblox, Microwave Dinner. The game falls into the category of underrated and unable to have replayability. The game is basically Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Odyssey smashed together but with robots and microwaves. The game has an amazing art style, gameplay, mechanics, and overall a great game to just have fun. A thing most games on the top of the platform lack, fun. Anyways if you could make a video about a tier list of some sort of all your picks for top underrated games, I would appreciate it. Also feel like it should be noted that with the growth of Anime, it has no doubt ruined the front page. Same with any trend really. Games like Bloxfruits, Brookhaven, Toilet Tower Defense, Blade Ball, and simulators all are mediocre games at there "peak". Bloxfruits is popular... well because One Piece. Brookhaven is popular because.. toddlers. Toilet Tower Defense is popular because SKIBIDI DOP D-. Blade Ball is popular just because of the gameplay idea being good but executed horribly. Simulators are popular nowadays due to FREE UGC!!! All the games that are good all have under 20k players. Games like Jailbreak and old classics all died due to a couple things. 1: Over updating, 2: Not listening to the community fully, and 3: The idea gets old. Games like Jailbreak just get over updated with garbage updates and get over the top grindy. Yeah honestly I don't know why I wrote all this I just hope that Roblox can go back to what it used to be. Creative.

Usually the good games involve commitment and complex thinking, which is, to be completely honest, not something that the main demographics have. But if you think about the future, some(or perhaps most if we get lucky) kids will grow up and start to enjoy such games. Just my thought though. There’s an easy chance this may not come true though, sadly.

Fact: Children or teenagers love to burn their neurons in games like this and especially in anime edits, as if ruining their buttons were something fun.

My favorite obscure passion project is Find Everything. It has about 100 people on at its peak of the day and it's a really fun pay-to-play game which has a ton of content.

Ah... survive the night, the devs legit copied the old game and deleted the ability to defend yourself and it gets more players, really says alot.

Very well explained and brilliantly put together video. It’s gotten annoying to me as well on how I can’t find any original games even after scrolling endlessly in the games page Most tend to just get boring yet people play it nonstop which I never understood Simulators are legit just copy and paste of one and another with different titles Tower defense games are also copy and paste but with just a little deviations in character choices Fighting games have become unoriginal as well And also the lack of hype events such as the old ready player one event or egg hunt makes it boring as well Been playing since 2014 and this is just ludicrous

Mediocrity is just the key in this platform as of today, not a lot of people are willing to sacrifice their time and money for a passion project that'll only appear for a brief time and will disappear to obscurity because of how keeping up the player count means you're not just doing this as a passion project anymore, you're forced to keep up with the player's or the community's patience. There are still developers who do not care about these things and will continue to support their projects without anything in return or popularity because they just want to see their game finished as they've envisioned it. First impressions are also a huge factor in releasing a game, without hype or anything that will make your game pop in the beginning, you are going to have a hard time having a decent and steady player count. There's also a really sad dilemma that these quality games tend to be focused around single-player which doesn't bode well with how "replayable" it can be. Multiplayer comes a long way in how a game's lifespan can exceed expectations because of how player-to-player interactions can make the game fresh and at least fun for a lot of people. Old-ish Era of Roblox kinda didn't have this problem honestly, a lot of indie and experimental games were made (which also popped off) which got promotional blogs and even videos by ROBLOX themselves discussing these games, but kinda died down because of the massive changes that were made the following years. Nonetheless, I do hope some of the programs that ROBLOX has put out to fund some of these obscure and promising games can help more and more people have the motivation to make something that's fresh and unique around this platform.

I’ve been into game development for a long time and did nothing but study how these types of games prosper. Quality games can be successful, but there is one mistake that every developer will make that can throw off other people: *Lack of replays ability* When the game is too complex or too difficult, that can eventually make the players find the game doesn’t work for them. Another major factor is that there are mostly one way to play instead of many other ways. For example: Blade Ball is simple where they either hit it ball or they lose, have loads of cosmetics to increase taste into the game, and other maps play a part of this as well. While most quality games focus on quality so much that they fail to get a grip of what can actually increase the chance of replay ability. New quality games such as Oaklands has smashed popularity because the fact that there are almost over one hundred ways to prosper in the game. Same thing for Blade Ball, many ways to play.

It's like Dungeon Quest but better, I've been playing this game since the beta and it's sad how it had such a brief spike in players and now it's basically abandoned again (like 50 players), there's an active discord community, the developers are promising to bring new things, but it still breaks my heart to see such a good game that took so much programming time have 0% recognition

Making the change from crim to commentary was such a good decision, I've been with you since I started criminality in summer 2022, your new content is so entertaining, Keep it up!

I liked how you mentioned the end of replayability of games and brought up Doors. Ive made videos on it and enjoyed it for quite some time, but it quickly lost its joy after the inital exposure. While its well designed, it can struggle to keep people entertained if not given more meaningful replay value (modifiers are nice challenges, but i dont feel it changes the core mechanics well enough, that and id prefer they work on the second floor instead of trying to constantly update the hotel)

The word would get out there slowly but it’s better than wasting money on sponsored ads. If it works for games launching on steam it can work for roblox too!

My favourite game recently would have to be “An Okay Car” a basic yet fun game that I had a blast playing with friends, a rare feeling nowadays. Games promoted to the front page today are over saturated with micro transactions and all of that sort. I really love those well crafted games, adventure, horror, etc. Hope to see smaller more dedicated developers be promoted to the front page!

I’m glad bb2 was on here as well Creator is sadly losing motivation though

as a developer myself, I appreciate you bringing this topic to attention. I personally would really love to develop an original passion project to completion, but as is apparent in this video, passion projects often end up in the bin of obscurity. These types of games usually end up on very long periods of development, and often end up getting scrapped because they failed to build a large enough playerbase to keep interest on the game, which in some cases ends up in many staff members leaving the project because they don't see enough of a profit. And on that I would also like to note, finding developers for ambitious passion projects is often really hard, as trying to do something that goes against the cash grab formula is extremely risky, and a lot of developers don't want to work on a project where there is a chance of them not getting any profit. Eventually, these projects will end up with very small teams of anywhere from 1-10 people working on them because they failed to gain enough attention within a certain time frame. What I'm getting at is that It isn't just the players at fault for this neverending trend of soulless games, it can also be because the developers lack passion, or because they only see a project for it's profit. The 2 sides here both encourage each other to continue to make and consume garbage games in this perpetual cycle of nothing, and it really sucks to see, as it really demotivates me and other developers who want to make games that are genuinely fun and have passion behind them.

@Indocryptic

9 ай бұрын

yep, I have heavy respect to developers that build and create games for passion and creativity and not just as an easy way to farm money. Most of these passion projects are also made by single developers in a one man team due to them not being able to find any other people who'd want to go against roblox's algorithm of popular games getting on the front page and hence, making the most money. Also, you really shouldn't give up on creating a game that's original and stems from your own creativity and passion just because it doesn't make you a profit. There are many things in this world than are much more valuable than even an infinite amount of money, and your imagination and ability to express it is one of them. Even if no one ends up playing your game, at least it'd be something that you'd be proud of. And heck, if you want me to, I'd be more than happy to play through it

KZreadrs are very important in helping those big project games. Games such as the backrooms and doors have gotten huge success and part of that is because of youtubers playing it and spreading awareness.

@SomeCowguy

9 ай бұрын

And the same top 20 games being at the same spots in basically every category due to it

In the couple years I’ve been playing here is a list of some of my favourite unique games: Vesteria- super large one, it’s sad the game is kind of dying right now but when it comes to a roblox rpg this was up there Into the abyss- mentioned in the video but il mention it again, amazing game, very relaxing. Theme park tycoon 2- yes it has that word “tycoon” but it really goes so much above just that. The creativity you get when building your theme park is amazing, you can make it so unique and it’s just unlike any other game. Deflect- this was super sad to see. Deflect is the original blade ball only averages around 300-400 players nowadays. Striking example of what was talked about in the video, small games make unique mechanics, copy hats come around who know how to market to the wider roblox audience and exceed in popularity. That’s just four I have in mind but there are many more out there. Look for high rated games in low stages of development and usually avoid anything with “simulator or tycoon” in the title. Big capitalised letters saying “UPDATE TWO NOW OUT” are usually also a bad sign.

So happy to see Battle Buddies 2. In this video, I've been following the development of the game for a while. If you are interested in it I'd reccomend playing the prequel as it has more content than battle buddies 2 as of now

Yo, this video does bring up some good points. As a developer for Toy Defense, some people in my community did not waste time bringing this video to attention after they noticed you said Toy Defense was a copy of Toy Soldierz (which I'm assuming was just a mistake). There was quite some controversy when that game came out. I made the game knowing it wouldn't get players; it was just a fun way to pass time. But I was blessed by the algorithm and the game blew up quite a bit, motivating me to come back and revamp the game after abandoning it for 3 years. Some more fun games I wish had more players include Project:Gaming, Super Duper Cube Cavern (Now released as Stasis!!), and Countless Worlds. Microwave Dinner is also really fun, but it's player count has been rising so I'm glad that it's getting the attention it deserves.

Its quite complicated for the average ROBLOX gamer (Its based on EVE Online after all), is completely F2P other than some cosmetics and is still in its Beta phase of development (despite existing for a few years now).

As someone who started making combat warriors content a while ago(started around August of last year) It's sad to see that game and many others tilt more towards microtransactions to boost the player count.

Thank you for making awareness of this curse its a damn shame what we have to do to find new games.

I have been playing a game called Arcane Odyssey since its public release on Roblox. It is a quality experience with loads of nuance and I feel its replayability is actually well made unlike other quality games on the site. Now, picture this: I see a friend that I have been playing Arcane odyssey with is playing Blox Fruits, same with many, many more. I decide I'm gonna stick the game out for a while. The first sea was probably the worst time I had playing any game ever. When I reached the 2nd sea after an entire weekend of grinding to catch up, I was hit in the face with even more grinding, and that's when I decided enough was enough. Blox fruits has hundreds of thousands of players daily and has been kicking for years yet is horribly made. The only thing I can praise it for is the move animations are pretty flashy, but then other games have that so Blox Fruits isn't special. Hands down the least amount of fun spent on a game on recent time. It has similarities to Arcane odyssey but is way worse in every aspect. Why do older players *also* play brain rot?

I hope this video gets it's awareness because it shows how much Developers work hard to achieve their goals then they just get crushed by some mediocre game that'll die after a couple weeks or months. It's sad seeing we won't see old Roblox in a long time, or just never again.

I think it’d be a good idea to highlight games in the community that you like and might be underrated, or at least some of the community sharing these games so that they can get more attention

I appreciate the keywords for me to search as that was part of my main issue. Trying to find an interesting game is hard because the front page is almost always games that are no different than the one 3 spaces to the right. Also, I don't know if its a console only issue, but its incredibly annoying that they limit how many games you see. I can search a keyworld like "hiest" and even if there are more than 100 games that use it, im only able to see 25 of them. If I use a keyword that i know is so rampant like "simulator" then i will not even see .1% of all those games. As someone who played roblox in elementary school and has since graduated, what has this platform come to.

Finnally someone decided to addres this issue! Lots of Respect! It is just sad that new player's or people who never played good games on Roblox give up and don't try the interusting one's. Really Loved the video, it was a breath of fresh air!❤❤❤

one of the best videos ive watched recently and probably the best video covering this topic, hope more bigger youtubers cover this topic to spread awareness of actual quality games.

Something I've noticed as a long time player is the insane increase of all things microtransactions. Back in 2016-2017 a tycoon might have a pass for 2x money or maybe a weapon or two, but now they and every other genre of game are stuffed with as many ways to get kids to shell out robux as possible. It really starts to become ironic when you see obby but you are on a bike have a gamepass to disable the popups for other gamepasses.

Thank you so much for finaly adressing this issue their are so many good games that I play but they barely get any players

Been playing Roblox for a while now, and one particular gem is a game called Entry Point (I've seen that you even included it shortly in the video!). Watching this video, it made me want to give my two cents on how EP fits the bill for this. Availability - EP isn't a trend follower, and never has been (Unless you consider it a PD2 ripoff, but it honestly isn't once you look into it). It takes an extremely unique approach that makes it seem more like a game you'd find on Steam rather than Roblox. Microtransactions - EP is very lackluster in its microtransactions. Sure, you have a few minor ones here and there, such as EXP boosts, cosmetics, or exclusive weapons you can mess around with, but by far the biggest ones are the Expansion Missions. Theoretically this should influence players into staying right? Yeah, but the expansion missions aren't a "I bought it, so I have to make the most of it" deal. They're things you can feel complete in (Completing it on all difficulties, Rookie - Legend for most people). You feel as if you've made your money's worth once you've completed the mission, and have no real urgency to return to them. Replayability - EP thrives in Replayability in the rough Early Middle and Late Game, but everywhere else? Early game you're mostly learning, and there's a huge hurdle of mechanics, systems, tactics, etc etc that you have to understand in EP. Many people quit early because of how complicated the game is. Mid game is sort of grindy, where you're just completing missions to try and level up so you can complete the next mission. End game is a barren wasteland, as there's no real incentive to continue playing once you've gotten all the skins, beaten all the missions, understood the entire storyline, etc. Audience (woah new one) - Roblox is a platform that was originally designed for kids, and that's what most of the playerbase is. Most kids probably are playing on mobile devices, and EP is strictly PC based, which cuts its potential playerbase in half. Additionally, the game is extremely mature and complicated. From the larger than average amount of mechanics that you need to understand, many are quickly turned off due to it being too complicated. The game is also rather story focused, and people who don't care for such things will only be kept for so long. EP is a game that doesn't really belong in Roblox, and seems more fit to something like Steam, with an audience that's more preferrable for the game. ok rant over, EP good but unpopular because roblox or something

Yhea it's indeed a pretty insane game (which also made me rage a lot). I discovered it after a friend told me to join him, I don't regret it a single second. I think mature players avoid the simple and "clickbait" youtube channels that focus on playing mediocre games, kids don't focus on seeking good games but rather watch these videos. That's why there aren't many people on this game.

fr entry point was so goated back in the day, now everyone stopped playing it. Goated games like *elemental battlegrounds, stop it slender, vampire hunters, entry point, r2da and polyguns* all fell off but were super good. Then you see games like blox fruits, with such a shitty grind and horrible combat system have 900k players

It was about time someone has said this... It feels refreshing to know someone understands this I have friends that play random front page games..

EXCELLENT VIDEO! Have been playing since 2016 and completely agree with everything said.

Check out Fantastic Frontier, if you could- It's a fantastic game, almost surrealistic in it's content, art and such. It's got relatively simple gameplay. I don't know for certain why, but it never managed to amass a LARGE fan base.

Great informative video. Hope you can keep building up. Anyways yea the roblox catalog is now just an App Store with extra steps and even if quality projects try to solve the replaying issue depending on the game, it would be really successful or subpar

I’m glad you added r2d in your video, it is such a gem in my 4 years on Roblox.

Just buy the firevest armour for 25 cash. It gives complete fireproof and its super cheap, so you're guaranteed to make money back. 3. Tickers also dont need a buff.

Excellent video. A lot of the best and most inventive games that Roblox has been platform for should really be shown more

It really is a shame. I remember when there was a time where the roblox front page was filled with original games to play. Then it later devolved into copies of games that exist out of the platform. And now it’s at a point where the games on the front page are just copies of copies of games designed solely for the purpose of making money.

Some good points raised there. I'm just sick of all the mediocre games out there now. I pretty much only play like 2 simulators which aren't just brainless clicking, and every now and then some other games mainly fighting or obbies or some unique concepts that pop up once in a while. Everything else is jump unoriginal boring concepts. Imo you can pretty much only get away with copying concepts with fighting games or obbies, anything else and it just doesn't work.

A game I've always came back to is Critical Strike which is a simple class fighting game with fun gameplay and great classes, all with their own unique playstyle. Sadly the original creator stopped at V5.7.5 but luckily another team picked it up and has been supporting it, with new updates and class reworks.

the current cxs team has the same team as the original i think ??

ragdoll royale and running from the internet are two games that deserve so much more, yeah they're round based games so they can get repetitive occasionally but most of the time they're so fun to play

you should make a review on pokemon brick bronze. it was one the most fun game I had played in Roblox for a looong time. I legit was addicted to it. one of its features was that it not only had a plot but it also was pretty replayable. I used to love playing it. Unfortunately, it got copyrighted. creators made a new game a few years later, I forgot it's name but it was pretty similar to pokemon, it wasn't similar enough for it to get on nintendo's radar tho.
