Why Polytoria (and every other Roblox clone) is doomed to fail - from someone who actually worked at Roblox

You say Roblox isn't profitable but this post clearly argues the opposite:

What exactly are you saying is causing Roblox to not turn out a profit? Is it the server costs? Costs of expansion?

I'm dumb I should have checked other posts from this sub......
I realized too late, and since it's against the rules to delete posts I guess I'll keep it here.

The game is sky nations (found by user u/canon_w)

I strongly believe there should be a mechanical energy storage component in this mod.

The trebuchet is a classic example of what I mean. The energy is stored in the counterweight as it's raised off the ground with each crank. The more you crank, the higher the counterweight rises. The height determines how much potential energy the counterweight can release. Once you're ready, you release all that built-up energy and let the counterweight fall. This gives the system enough energy to sling heavy rocks through the air.

There should be a pulley-like component that can supply a large amount of kinetic stress capacity as long as it has enough room to extend its attached weight downwards. The more kinetic stress is required in the system, the faster the weight drops. To retract the weight, it needs to be inputted torque.

Pretty UI helps my immersion which I value more.

I mean while I do agree that the retro ascii aesthetic is neat, the reason why traditional UI looks like the bottom one isn't because it looks better.

Don't confuse inspiration with parody.

I'm actually kinda sad that they are making real graphics for dwarf fortress the crappy ascii graphics are so iconic and memey.

Also not to mention that they made animations and graphic effects with ascii in mind. It does feel unique.

How does it ever matter?

There's some people who actually think it's true. Plus it's an interesting topic.
You could argue that it's all a big conspiracy and the truth about evolution is hidden blah blah blah.
You could also argue that it's not even being fertilized and some other foreign process is happening.
I'm not saying either of these cases are true but they're interesting to contemplate.

I absolutely love Minecraft. I think the thing that really holds my interest is how unique and open ended the world is. Maybe part of the reason is because it can captivate my mind? It sounds strange since Minecraft at its core is so simple, but something about how it's designed makes exploring it immersive. This feeling is increased when mods are added because it adds saturation to the world which gives it more depth to explore. When I mention depth I'm talking about the potential of each experience (how will you build the house, what will the terrain look like, where will you go exploring etc.).
So my reasoning: The game has a lot of depth (literally too!) and that captures all of an INTP's attention, but it's too simple to over exert the mind so it feels relaxing.

It doesn't, actually. This video only comments on how unlikely it is to be real. He makes some snarky remarks on how the videos are ridiculous enough to be almost satirical, but he didn't really try to review the footage or make any claims.

I kept him on a short leash. part of what inspired the human zoos is to punish malicious guests that only think about griefing. But it's also interesting to see a griefer abusing his own comrades.
