*things i messed up / missed*
- i didn't wanna bring up slenders, copy n pastes, etc. because theres no real "date" when those terms were coined.
- i forgot about the 2021 metaverse event, and that egg hunts are supposedly never gonna happen again
- the 2 billionth account was created on november 6th, and not november 9th
i forgot the metaverse event even happened lmao
In still sad
ah yes 69
November 6th, November 9th,
6. 9
Just let me die
biggest takeway is the "currently playing." watching it go from small games from 2012 and all to the games i know and love from 2016 really puts it in perspective how large the platform has grown
agreed.
jsdgjhgh me watching all the games i used to play drop out of the currently playing from the last video
I didn't realize how old survive the disasters was wow
it went from fun pvp games to shit roleplay games

A wholesome thing you forgot to mention:
In January 15th 2010 roblox started the hats for Haiti event, where you would buy a specific hat for 15 robux, and the total amount of money roblox would earn from that hat would be donated to the cause to help rebuild Haiti. Personally I think this was the best event roblox has ever done.
omg yeeaaaah the hat donations!!
what about during hurricane harvey in 2017 you could buy a cowboy hat and that would go towards relief
That sadly was the past, now roblox keeps their money and doesn’t do many donation events.
@@aveemo I was in hurricane Harvey
@@aveemo In 2017, I lived in Houston, and the day Harvey hit was my birthday.
When Apple and Fortnite were “peacefully talking” in court on why fortnite should be banned from apple devices (Epic games and apple didn’t get a fair share of money when someone bought V-Bucks) Fortnite then said that Roblox doesn’t give out a fair share if money too. But then Apple responded with a “Very reasonable” response saying that “Roblox is like Minecraft, it never ends. A game has an end to it like when you win/lose but Roblox never has an end so it is more of an “experience” than an actual game” and then Roblox thought they might be next after Fortnite so they decided to change every “Game” word to “Experience” just to be safe. Lol
but we sure as hell know that roblox experiences are more than games than actual experiences
yea its funny how ridiculous that is
This makes me hate Fortnite even more. They really snitched on Roblox and almost made Roblox be taken off App Store.
@@umm.spectri same. i have never liked fortnite because of "Look new dancing outfits!!1!1!!"
@@umm.spectri Yeah! Fortnite's the infamous company for creating Fortnite!
10:09 by calling games "experiences" instead, they don't have to pay a specific tax related to games since they are marketing their product as an engine
I think it was the Micro Transaction Tax, where the game store takes 30% (mobile)

If you told me back then in 2012 that a single game in the future on roblox could hold atleast 100,000 players I wouldn't have believed you. It's crazy how far roblox has gone. As I'm typing this, Adopt Me has 200k ACTIVE players and Brookhaven has 500k ACTIVE players. It's so crazy.
Its so crazy to think. I remember when I religiously played Roblox back in 2011-2013, I thought it was insane when a game reached 3k concurrent players. Having not touched Roblox since 2015, I hopped on to see what its like today and was in shock that that there were games on the front page that reached 500k concurrent players. The rapid growth this game has had in the last 5 years is inconceivable.
Also side rant, I realized my account got hacked sometime last year and lost all my items that I unknowingly went limited during my hiatus which would be valued around 20k Robux. Even though I don't play anymore, its a bummer that a lot of my childhood just got deleted like that and Roblox didn't even attempt to get it resolved, oh well.
@@triptez6917 evem as someone who started in 2015 the different between 2015 popular games and 2021 popular games is insane to me roblox really blew up recently

My oldest daughter started playign Roblox when she was 3 back in 2016 thanks to playing with her older cousin. Everything seemed "innocent" enough to me. The first "experience" I played was when I she was playing on an iPad just before bed, on my own phone as I lay next to her, created my account in secret, found her current game, and joined it. She was so thrilled and excited. Now if I'm NOT mistaken, I'm pretty sure it was an early version of a FNAF Simulator, it was very simple and played the Living Tombstone FNAF song on loop. I'm pretty sure that's correct. If i'm not (and who really cares aside me for accuracy here) then it was either Build a Boat Simulator or Normal Elevator. After that, Phantom Forces became the thing that sold me on Roblox overall.
I started playing roblox around 2013-2014, and now it's 2021. This video really puts into perspective on how long I've played roblox.
what a long journey. cant wait for the next decade for more roblox history

Literally one of the best Roblox features of all time was parties. You and 4 friends could make a group chat, and then turn on party mode. Once one person joins all your friends will join the same server, without having to even click a single button! It was awesome, me and my friends used it a lot. Now it's less useful because Roblox doesn't automatically fill it's servers to the limit and spreads them out, but it's still sad to see it gone.
no

Hey dude... we will be waiting here for like... 4 years until the roblox story part 3.

Experiences* remember roblox is a big experience and dosnt allow "games" to be on it
Fantastic videos my guy! I remember everything that happened after February of 2015 (when I joined) and I'm just so glad I was apart of all of this. I thank you for bringing all of these precious memories back. ❤️✊✊
Hands down, these 2 videos were great. You did a great job making such awesome and informative videos!
Oh, I know why they’re called experiences!
In the Apple VS Epic court case, Epic claims that Apple allowing Roblox to be on the iOS store is the same as having the Epic Games store on iOS, and therefore are breaking TOS.
But because Apple has a megafuckload of money, they put a gun against Roblox’s head to change “Games” into “Experiences.” So that on a technical level, Roblox isn’t a game platform, but an “Experience Platform.”
Aaaand that's why I hate big companies sometimes, flawed logic or greedy cash grabbers. Well, you did a good explanation, here's a like tip, my sir.
It's actually a Metaverse, get it right.
“Megafuckload”
@@wyattb9578 uh, which part are you referring to?
@@miguelolandesca9342 It's a joke because Roblox is pushing the name Metaverse instead of platform

Thank you for the nostalgia trip, especially in part 1 when you showed the most popular games in 2011, I remember all of them like it was yesterday. I'd kill to go back and play ROBLOX in 2011 again.
Man, you bring my back my old child hood, it gives me good memories (almost said food lmao) to when I would play with my friends every day after school, I still play with them on roblox and discord every now and then, but old times just felt better
You’re super underrated and that makes me sad :/ you earned a sub good sir
Looking at the old dance emote made me :0 I completely erased that from my working memory because Im so used to the dance emote now, but damn do I want it back
Dude you deserve more subscribers, these 2 videos were not only informational, but really well made and edited, and really freaking funny lmao. Keep this up man :)
i agree, my favorite funny part was "we have, ball (breath)" from part 1
i love watching ur videos!! they give me sm roblox nostalgia
10:06 this was cause of epic suing apple for forcing a tax on in app purchases on games, roblox didn’t have this tax because apple viewed roblox’s games as expereiences due to them usually having no end.
also roblox games are called experiences because roblox wanted to sound more professional or somethng like that idk
@@luluczs ?? where'd you get that from??
@@ajaki_11Idk, I heard peoples tell me that, I think that's cap

july 7th 2016 its where i entered robloc it was such a nostalgic trip through this 2 videos thank you for making it
Yes I've been waiting for part 2!
this video is so well made, props to you
3:01 i remember making my first account on that page 😭😭😭
Well done, you're commentary videos are very good, here's a sub for the effort
This was a very good watch lol, thanks for the hardwork!
Legendary story, This brings back alot of memories. Nice job!
Even though this video format has been reused many times this video is pretty well made and interesting to watch. Liked and subed B )
8:02 Fun fact: I am actually friends with the account.
Roblox made games “experiences” because Apple was having Fortnite give them some money they got. (I’m not sure, but I think it was 30% of their money) It was because apple was an app that Fortnite was able to be downloaded on. Fortnite got mad and asked apple.” Why do we have to give money to you, but roblox doesn’t?” Then Apple told them that Roblox was an experience. They explained the difference between an experience and a game. Then roblox went,” Oh shoot, we need to change our games into experiences to prevent this problem.” So, overnight, Roblox changed games to “Experiences” So they could get their full money they earned. (I’m pretty sure that was why. It’s not accurate, but it was something like that.)
More accurate version:
Ok, if anyone is interested here is why Roblox “games” are now called experiences! Apple and Fortnite are having a legal battle, Apple takes 20% of all money made through purchases on games. This is a lot of money especially for a game like Fortnite, so Fortnite adds a new feature to their game where you can pay them directly stopping Apple taking their cut! Fortnite encouraged players to buy v bucks directly from them by making them cheaper if you buy them of them directly! Apple was furious about this, so they made the decision to suspend Fortnite from the App Store and sue Epic games (the owners of Fortnite). In court Fortnite brought up the fact that Roblox didn’t pay the 20% on all purchases made in their game! Apples argument against this was that Roblox is an experience and not a game. So, to avoid have the 20% purchase fee leveed on them Roblox re-named all of its games to experiences!
@@JELMIG roblox did nothing and got involved
@@JELMIG that was accurate
This was very well made you earned my sub

dude the editing and humor is SOOO Good! i really hope you get popular!
also i am the 3,000th like :ok:
Congrats on 7000 subs
Could be wrong but iirc roblox's games called experiences bc of the epic games vs Apple feud, they didn't want to be dragged into that mess
i miss the old ovens in work at a pizza place, it was funny to shove 30 doughs into the oven and have them jam the conveyor
8:56 I remember being teleported there and it actually scared me because when I joined, loud sounds would play. It gave me nothing but heart attacks. Thanks, Alex Newtron…
Do you know I think that totally honest I wish more history videos on Roblox were like yours keep making a good Vids
It's here! 🥳 Yay! The 2nd part!
To be honest, I had high hopes for this but with the current situation that's going on in roblox. I don't feel like coming back at all. Tix was one issue, now guest and builders club. Users from 2k10-2k15 can definitely tell that there were major ups and downs.. mostly downs..
In short, I don't think its worth returning back to roblox and paying it another visit. Alot of cursed is emerging nowadays in the community as well as the game itself. Even the games popular now are just deadass boring asf.
well true im prob gonna sell my acc for money if im honest lol
Thanks for bringing back the memories of 2015
your voice is soothing also history class looks very interesting here
that "which games are being played right now" section for 2014 made me experience new emotions
When it came to august 2017 i immediately smiled since i started a little while after in september-ish and i remember being a guest and in life in paridise, finally getting an official account when guests got removed, man, i miss old roblox it was fun
Goated contet bro. Keep it up!
Part 3: Mods started sniffing some coke and banned people for stupid reasons
I’m gonna sit here and wait for part three
This was cool, just earned a sub
These were good days, until the dark era in 8:14.
The darkness is still here. How sad.
Rest in peace Erik.
It's nice seeing roblox's history fully documented in a good way
It’s nearly unrecognizable how far this game has come since I first played it over 13 years ago. Astonishing just how much has changed
damn i remember when it was 2014 i was 7 and i was on a sketchy website playing online games and i saw an ad for roblox its hard to believe that one ad is the reason why i still play to this day
3:16 that guy had the one punch man costume before it even came out as an anime, nice
this is why they were renamed to experiences
basically uhhhh fortnite moved to a separate platform like roblox did so uhhhhh they said "roblox doesnt have games they are experiences" or smth
I have to say though as of today I really do love the new sets of styles and drip designs others and creators of all sorts be making on Roblox.
I love them and it's what keeps me lowkey.
ooooh!! call of robloxia!!! I never knew what happend to it.. but i loved it! I like these nostalgia vids.

I appreciate cutting the music while talking about Eric's passing
feb 2015 is when i first joined i remember being so mad about tix being removed and making a screencast-o-matic video about saving tix
i've never been in roblox before now except once when i tried it, but this really makes me realize how much more the game really is. it's not just a kids game used to make cool things, it's a whole ecosystem of people-made things that has been around and evolving since before i was even a gamer. sorry i took roblox for granted lol
those voice cracks kILL mE EVerY TIME
It is truly sad to see what games are the most popular compared to a few years ago, humanity is on the decline
Yeah, I wish all hangout, anime games, were banned.
I remember being on a guest account and I would play “Build to survive the creepers” that was the best game I have ever played in all of roblox. Nowadays, I find that game to be gone…it makes me sad
So much of this stuff feels more recent than it is... I joined in 2010 but it's really absurd how long ago some of the stuff was, especially in the first part (i.e. 2.0)
This is a masterpiece for sharing our story as a fellow robloxian.
you're underrated.
i also wanted to say that im surprised that from a game filled with plastic bricks and bombs turned into a game not safe for kids ( this is why roblox should become for 12 year olds again) also i dont like the fact that one of the creator died and david says ''ok its time ruin all this masterpiece'' i still wonder why would he let everyone start doing all these bad things on roblox i also wonder what the roblox mods think about all this...
this is tterrible......
if i owned roblox i would have just removed all the bots all the online daters in 2 seconds bc david DOESNT PHUCKING CARE about his own game i mean erik's game
david doesnt deserve to own roblox.
He’s trying his best though because it’s not because he wants people to create inappropriate things.
Besides wouldn’t it be hard to remove millions of bots and many other accounts? Moderators themselves are trying their best as well y’know?
you cant.. just remove od-ing and bots.. you can make an effort to get rid of games with od-ing, but bots are a different story. and i get what your saying about how david ruined the game, and i agree with you, but as a businessman he has to make decisions. business is all about money, nobody can change that. not even david. while the choices he is making as a business man are quite far-fetched and disliked, thats always up to him. trust me, i wish erik could come back and make this better, but i can only wish. the only effective solution to a lot of the problems on this platform would probably be making it 12, or 14+. this would remove a lot of the problems with innapropriate things when the kids seeing them already know what it is. and, there wouldn't be mindless children online that dont know how to do multiplication yet. so while i agree with your statement, not everything here can be fixed.
10:01 I choked Harder
I remember top model, i used to love that game. i was probably 8 at the time or probably 7, love the memories and friends i made at that time.
i remember in about 2015-16, i played a lot of RHS with my friends at the time and we experienced SOOO much filtering. i call this period the "filtergeddon" and im glad its relatively normal now. i joined back in about 2013, with huge gaps due to.. well being a child and having PC privileges taken away from me sometimes. i really miss 2010's roblox and if i had a time machine i think i would stay in 2012 just to play roblox for as long as i can. roblox in its entirety was really monumental to me and my childhood and im sad i cant re-experience it the way i wanted to the first time.
rip erik cassel, too. im heartbroken, genuinely. he would've kept this fine little engine pristine.
i swear teenagers all over uae celebrated roblox’ unbanning. it felt like a fever dream, lololol.
@Progreshbar thanks!
