THIS LETTER WAS SENT TO ROBLOX, BUT I WAS TOLD TO COMMENT IT ON THE BLOG AND FORUMS. NBC (or even BC) DEVELOPERS, PLEASE SHOW SUPPORT FOR THIS REASONABLE REQUEST. HERE IS THE LETTER:
For starters, let me start of by saying this is NOT a whining hatred letter, but a rational thinking opinion letter, hoping for a resolve. Please read through to the end.
The removal of tix, really tragic for many NBC. Me? I don't really mind; I too agree that it is better for the roblox economy. However, That leaves no way for NBC to get robux.
Roblox stated that they will add more free items in the catalogue. Even so, that won't help me afford game passes with the price of hundreds and thousands of robux.
I think it's fair, and only natural for BC's to get benefit, like daily login robux. Fair enough. Developer's Exchange? A new feature, which was not promised to NBC's. It also involves real life money, so paying for that benefit? Fair enough. BUT. "Roblox: Where you make the game." With a slogan like that, at least make it enjoyable for everyone to develop games. By that, I mean many things, which I believe you already know, but mosty the PAID ACCESS. 10% earnings from selling? No daily bonuses? No achievable way to earn robux? Yeah, REAAAAAAAALL nice... How are we NBC supposed to get robux without buying them? Kinda beats the purpose of a "free game". I believe BC's should get more benefits than the NBC's, obviously, but this is too harsh. Paid access should be 50%. BC's get 70%, and 20% is still a lot, not to mention, daily log in rewards. That's all I'm asking: make the paid access for NBC's to 50%. Trust me, it will NOT discourage the BC's, but rather make roblox more attractive to developers without BC.
And also, let's look a little bit more into it: Roblox gives you free servers, which I know is not free. so, it's natural for roblox to ask for money; It needs to keep it's real life economy alive, and I get that. It's not like free players don't want to support roblox, it's more like they can't. I personally would buy BC if I had money. Please note that free players are the ones who will pay later, so try to make it as encouraging as possible for NBC developers.
Since roblox's attraction is the developing options, that's my only concern. NBC's don't deserve the "Trading System" or "Ad-free gameplay", but please give them 50% paid access so they can actually enjoy having an economy/market for their games.
Thank you for reading, I am really sorry it's this long, but it is, because this expresses my true feelings and ideas. I personally believe the benefit to be rational. I want to hear your opinion on this, and resolves. |
