Yep, totally a lack of breakout games and not the fact that Tim Sweeney David Baszucki is hosting a pedophile playground.

... what does Tim have to do with Roblox?

David Baszucki is the CEO of Roblox, Tim Sweeney is the CEO of Epic Games. One could argue that Fortnite isn't far off the same shit smear as Roblox, so either way this comment is valid.

Of course, cause they are mostly billionaires.

Oh, are the free child laborers who develop Roblox games not performing well enough to meet your expectations? That must be really frustrating for you

Imploding would destroy the tool side of things, and thats the only part I care about. Great.
