🎮 Is Roblox Getting Better or Worse?

The “Better” Argument:

• Older Audience Growth: Roblox is successfully “aging up,” with more users over 13 than ever before.
• Return of Classics: Many players are excited because 2026 feels like a “throwback” to the golden age of 2016.
• Better Safety: New AI age verification and restricted chat for unverified users are making the platform safer for kids.

The “Worse” Argument:

• Brain Rot Trends: Many players feel the homepage is being taken over by “low-effort” or “brain rot” simulator games that all look the same.
• Expensive Economy: Between expensive UGC items and high microtransactions in games, it’s becoming harder to have fun for free.
• Moderation Struggles: Despite new AI, there are still issues with inappropriate content slipping through the cracks.
