@@jauwn According to what I've read, technically, no, so long as the service is still providing you a service that you are, in return, paying for. In this case, since you're not paying anything, there is no reason why you can't delete said account. Alternatively, if they don't release the game in the EU, then they don't need to comply with GDPR regulations either. But since I'm sure they allow from the EU, it might be worth filing a complaint against them. GDPR has killed better games then them.

As an amateur game dev on Roblox, I will say that Roblox can be kinda...strict with what's allowed on the platform, I guess? Sometimes fleshing out a specific vision can be an uphill battle with all of their very unspecific guidelines and odd decisions. But that can only be an issue when that kind of leeway in terms of creativity is given to the creator in the first place. Also I have experienced what I can only describe as interactive art in some Roblox games. There are so many talented and phenomenal people on the site who create masterpieces that can even rival triple-A games in my personal opinion.

[@noterobrine9921]

Hey, so I've been a roblox dev for the last 4 years, the game maker engine nowadays is even better than it was when I started deving for fun (Roblox is what sparked that game developer love in my heart, and it has shaped my life entirely, it's because of it that I began gaining such a love for making games) and this sandbox is not even a joke, because a joke would be funny. (Although I do suppose seeing dumb corporations waste money on virtual land is pretty funny) Even with it's limitations and controversies, roblox is still not even comparable to Sandbox, roblox allows for such a freedom in it's game engine that makes many games and styles be possible, all for free. Tower defense, Horror, Role-playing games, FPS games, and anything in between that the community can make. The front page of the Roblox website has only a few games that are popular, but if you dig Enough, you'll find a huge amount of loyal roblox fans who'll push the engine to it's absolute limits and go even further. Cars and tanks with working suspension, aerodynamics systems for airplanes and helicopters, realistic models and textures, everything. Sandbox's level designer is barely functional, and I'm surprised some people actually managed to make a functioning game out of it, it'll never be able to be anything close to Roblox's Like I said before, Roblox is what helped spark the developer inside me, and I'm sure it has done the same thing for many other devs in the Roblox community, even those who have moved on from the game. I can't state enough how much of a gap there is between the Sandbox and Roblox. It's not even like a cliff wide gap, or an ocean wide gap, it's like Roblox is on Earth and the sandbox is in a whole different solar system. TLDR; The sandbox sucks, but you didn't need me to tell you that did you?

[@NorthStarBlue1]

What gets me about the Sandbox is that it's built in Unity, so it's trying to be a game engine inside another game engine which inherently runs you into two sets of restrictions. Even if you are able to push the limits of the Sandbox's level maker it's still walled in by Unity's limits, which leave very little avenues for real creativity. It's a bit like being told you can create an entire living space however you like, but you're restricted to the spare bedroom of an already built house. The whole metaverse/Web3 adventure really does highlight just how skewed the corporate world's vision of post-pandemic society was in 2021, where everyone was supposed to have fully embraced virtual socialization and abandoned real world gatherings even after it was safe to do so again. All the attempts to cash in on every aspect of it ultimately fell flat in the most hilarious ways.

[@NotSoMelancholy]

@@HappyBeezerStudios it’s solutions to two different problems. Both aren’t ideal. Budgets have inflated an ungodly amount, so they use their excessive spending as a way to justify price increases. The cuts are for business quarters, drop your teams so you can go “Look we slashed operating expenses by X amount which will net us Y amount more profit next quarter!” Or in stuff like Ubisofts case: “Hey we got the money from that government contract for opening a studio in their country. So we closed it and look how much we made you cause of it!” But it also what fuels the design by committee style of development. Teams are too big to have meaningful individual impacts and each project has devs rebuilding their teams as not many people are there for multiple projects.

Hey I remember the original mobile game known as The Sandbox! But that game was genuinely fun and had plenty of user generated "worlds" (aka just screens of all sorts of available materials the game had to offer, from literal music made with electricity to art and some minigames or experiences). And I went to look for it only to see it no longer appears on the GooglePlay store nor in my years long library of games. :( So many genuinely good mobile games have died with the advent of the toxicity of microtransactions, I will forever mourn the loss of them, and now I got to include a genuinely good god-sim to this list.

[@oliver_twistor]

I haven't used UE blueprints, but I've heard that it's really good at creating nice C++ code. Back in the day when I started programming, I learned quickly to not touch any sort of code generation tool because they invariably made a complete mess of things one had to go back and clean up oneself, but nowadays tools like UE blueprints create just as good, if not better, code than the average programmer can.

[@sourkefir]

Unreal engine BP basically is visual scripting (visual scripting =/= no code). I am currently learning UE, and I can tell you, the system is AWESOME, easy and flexible. You are still coding, but with visual nodes. No code on the other hand is "add behavior to object, object do thing".

Is it wrong the only time i see the "Virtual Land" argument really work was in Second Life? For those who never played it, in second life you can rent land with the L$ (the game's currency). And this rental scaled in cost based on how large of a parcel you wanted, and how much processing power you wanted dedicated to it. So yes you effectively rented server space, and the cost scaled with how popular the area is (note you can just teleport, but large facilities like clubs that drew a lot of users, caused more congestion on the server, thus higher rents to have people spread out). Pretty often you could find people sub leasing the land too. See one person owning a chunk for like a personal house might be kinda costly, so it wasn't uncommon for someone to develop an apartment or neighborhood and then rent out the houses. The result is people could get cheaper houses with more strict limits but had to follow rules of the locale (ie they might enforce dress codes when out on the road, but you were free to do whatever in your house). And from my experience most people got along under these (for instance rent prices stayed manageable) because it was very easy to take your shit and move elsewhere. Also its worth noting you could always cash out your L$ for real money. So if you ran a successful club or store front making custom avatars, clothes and such you could just convert that into money you could use in real life.
