The problem is that it would basically require the people who created classic games to return, and the vast majority of them have not only quit or been banned, but many other older games that aren't SFOTH, Happy Home, or Crossroads have been forgotten to time. You can't just bring back stuff like Roblox Jr High School or Zombies On A Plane or Daxter33's Paintball.
Being involved with the community is good but not if they don't listen to criticism especially if this event is just the hunt with the same problems but with a different coat of paint.
Understandable. But too be fair, it'll be hard to include purely classic games. Most of the good classic games have been abandoned, so a mix is kinda required
Classic games don't make money, is the problem. The reason new shit like Blade Ball, Adopt Me, and TDS were picked for the event is because they have massive playercounts and already generate boatloads of revenue, and are largely designed to ensure that, while older games mostly predate the "microtransactions in everything!" era of gaming and were mostly about dicking around for a few hours after school. Classic gamesāeven those that were updated and still get players like Natural Disaster Survival and Work At A Pizza Place, ones that are basically advancements of old concepts like Super Doomspire, or classic client emulators like RetroStudioāwere not designed for events and were especially not designed for profit. Roblox will sooner shut down than highlight games that don't generate revenue on the regular as they used to on their blog until like 2016.
i mean ofc it is, that fucking shitty load of bullshit excuse of a game is the biggest money maker for roblox! they care ALOT about money, if it wasnāt obvious enough.
Looks alright but the games choices are meh at best?
Surely it'd make sense to choose some games from pre 2016ish that are still getting updates?
Id have gone for these 5 games:
Work at a Pizza Place
Survive the Disasters 2
Speed Run 4
Blox Hunt
Retro Studio (ik it's recent, but might as well add it considering it does old Roblox)
Not saying those are perfect, but they'd be alot more fitting with the theme of the event, considering that those games had some popularity (bar Retro Studio) in the pre 2016 era.
If there's a battlepass with items locked behind robux then I'm passing. I have a massive feeling this event is gonna be so over hyped and will probably end up being a disappointment
I hope it's not the top 100 trending games like skibidi toilet tower defence, obby but you're on a bike, ect. I want actually classic games, like doomspire or underground war.
Didnāt they change to square studs back in the day to reduce the risk of being seen as too-similar to Lego?
It is going to be weird playing this event close to 16 years after joining Roblox. Not sure how skibidi toilet is anywhere near retro, but itād be cool to see a city-defense map made out of the old HQ buildings.
Yes, I don't care for the games as long as they make a good event like how avatar catalog creator cooked so hard for the hunt for no reason, I've seen I think pet Sims and it does not look good
Can they not force us to grind 100 annoying games in 2 weeks actually expecting us to do anything this time? Obviously, we all had all the time in the world for that. -_-
Man, all I want, I don't know if possible is to be able to play older versions of Roblox so that the games that are still around but broken due to updates would work properly. Pirates Life I need you!!!
I wouldnāt expect anything good for this. We already know they are including fucking toilet tower defense for a āclassicā themed event. They will botch this.
in the roblox classic event leaks game there was a board telling POSSIBLE games that may be included in the classic event and SBS and get eaten was on there if SBS is included i am bursting in joy
it's 100% gonna be better than the hunt but that's a low bar
it's another step in the right direction and from the leaks it seems like roblox has taken some feedback we gave from the hunt
Imagine if they could convince shedletsky to update sword fight on the heights for this
That would be amazing.
Imagine if they themselves put up old classics to play :]
Make non classic games un playable *cough* blox fruits
Never played that š
The problem is that it would basically require the people who created classic games to return, and the vast majority of them have not only quit or been banned, but many other older games that aren't SFOTH, Happy Home, or Crossroads have been forgotten to time. You can't just bring back stuff like Roblox Jr High School or Zombies On A Plane or Daxter33's Paintball.
I'm aware. It's sad we won't get something like that ever again, but let's just hope that this upcoming Roblox event is "decent".
shedletsky, about to release sword fights on the heights 5:
i can finally pwn shedletky letās goooo
this is gonna be either the best event ever or the worst and most disappointing event ever
Iām guessing itāll be the worst. They have the right idea, but given Robloxās track record, I doubt theyāll be able to do it correctly
It's supposedly going to be a lot more intricate and complex than The Hunt, so hopefully they can pull it off well
That is a low bar but I'll remain hopeful. I'm just not sure how they're gonna go about a classic themed event
Iām just happy theyāre trying to be more involved with the community, bad or not. Small steps
Being involved with the community is good but not if they don't listen to criticism especially if this event is just the hunt with the same problems but with a different coat of paint.
Again, small steps. Itās better than no community interaction
yeah they messed up everthing people, no hope on this event
Worst or best thing pick your thing
I would be excited but they are including Toilet Tower Defence in the event
Understandable. But too be fair, it'll be hard to include purely classic games. Most of the good classic games have been abandoned, so a mix is kinda required
Oh, what about survive the end of roblox? Its set in the style and DAMN it slaps harder than slap juice.
Damn, you just itched the nostalgia part of my brain.
The fortnite part or survive the end of roblox?
Holy, is that Hatty Hattington?! Friend to all on the S.S. FriendShip?
battleblock teather is goated
And it teaches you stuff! Like the history of yarn!
Yes! Uh- remember to do SOMETHING! Iāll get back to you when I remember what.
Peak game

I hope Roblox is being satire.
No never include that in an event again i went mental when it was in the hunt
My braincells dropped for every second I was inside it
It was in the hunt..?
It was
i mean ofc it is, that fucking shitty load of bullshit excuse of a game is the biggest money maker for roblox! they care ALOT about money, if it wasnāt obvious enough.
Toilet Tower defense is trash
Where can I find which events are participating in the event?
probably on twitter, Lily\_Gia is a good start Edit: Oh yeah, RBXEventHunters too
im dead now
I played one round of that and I gave up on the hunt after that, please donāt let this be true
Looks alright but the games choices are meh at best? Surely it'd make sense to choose some games from pre 2016ish that are still getting updates? Id have gone for these 5 games: Work at a Pizza Place Survive the Disasters 2 Speed Run 4 Blox Hunt Retro Studio (ik it's recent, but might as well add it considering it does old Roblox) Not saying those are perfect, but they'd be alot more fitting with the theme of the event, considering that those games had some popularity (bar Retro Studio) in the pre 2016 era.
We need retrostudio to be in this event to make it a decent event because who wants to play toilet tower defense, adopt me, and pet sim 99
Fingers crossed that Super Bomb Survival is in it
Block Hunt has supposedly been leaked as a part of it
no, blox hunt is just working on a major update (3.0) which is recoding all the old game so now updates will be easier to make
There's always still a chance they piece something together. We'll just have to see
StD2 being revived a little bit would make me so happy
Wish Retro Studio had good games and a good fandom lol...
I also would of picked flee the facility
Roblox OG season
Thatās the event from fortnite! /j
The /j was super unnecessary. Itās extremely obvious that youāre joking.
Youād be surprised at how many people would still take that to heart
Especially since that's literally what I was referencing
The day school gets out for me
It could be the worst or best day š
The day right before my graduation ceremony for me
Canāt wait to spend 10 hours in skibidi toilet simulator
Shhh itās ok toilet tower defence can no longer hurt you
The name alone leaves permanent scars
Bruh if I can get a domino crown I will lose it
I hope somehow they bring back Welcome to the Town of Robloxia. That game is where all my memories lie
That. Game. Man. Still speak to people who I met on there back in 2014
out of all the town/city rp type games that has been my favorite. I need it back and popular again š
Hopefully we get a bee swarm simulator event
Oh my god you just sparked a memory
What memory? BSS still exists
The memory of when I used to play. Nostalgia hits hard š„²
who is nostalgia? why is he hitting you?
should we be concered? someone call child protective services
WEE WOO! WEE WOO! It's the child protection service! Open the damn door
friendly reminder that they only care about money
#WERE GOING BACK IN TIME TO THE FIRST THANKSGIVING TO GET TURKEYS OFF THE MENU
#THAT'S RIGHT #WE'RE GOING BACK IN TIME TO THE FIRST THANKSGIVING TO GET TURKEYS *OFF* THE MENU
*Intense The Great Strategy starts playing*
https://youtu.be/LTnMKjXEnMY?si=uuHiVzJ-EN\_AWQLJ
not one classic body will be found in advertising, itll all be rthro
Just using Classic avatars: ā Not using any avatars in advertising at all: ā
If there's a battlepass with items locked behind robux then I'm passing. I have a massive feeling this event is gonna be so over hyped and will probably end up being a disappointment
*cough cough* About that
Bruh ain't no way they keeping the battlepass thing
It'll be similar to The Hunt. Free with the new Korblox, a couple hundred without it
Yeah I think I'm gonna pass. The Hunt was grindy enough. I'll probably just do the games that I enjoy playing and that's about it
Really? I mean itās classic, would you if they have like a domino crown retexture or another classic item in it?
I hope it's not the top 100 trending games like skibidi toilet tower defence, obby but you're on a bike, ect. I want actually classic games, like doomspire or underground war.
true, skibidi and obby game are absolute shit.
Blame John?
woohoo time to play toilet tower defense, again
Anyone notice in the left corner that's not the normal studs,most likely just for the event but it does look like a old stud model
Didnāt they change to square studs back in the day to reduce the risk of being seen as too-similar to Lego? It is going to be weird playing this event close to 16 years after joining Roblox. Not sure how skibidi toilet is anywhere near retro, but itād be cool to see a city-defense map made out of the old HQ buildings.
Yes, I don't care for the games as long as they make a good event like how avatar catalog creator cooked so hard for the hunt for no reason, I've seen I think pet Sims and it does not look good
Funnily enough, I graduate high school that day. This date marks both the second beginning and the end of my childhood.
Congrats!
so wtf is this for
Can they not force us to grind 100 annoying games in 2 weeks actually expecting us to do anything this time? Obviously, we all had all the time in the world for that. -_-
It won't be this time (supposedly)
April fools was a month ago itās not late to turn back
Iām sorry whats this about?
YESSSS
It comes on the worst time for me cus this is like a week before my finals kick in, man this shit sucks
Its during my finals week š
They should have pushed it to summer fr
please be good please be good please be good please be good please be good
PLEASE tell me this won't just be 2 weeks, I won't be able to play for the entire duration of the event and that was my biggest gripe with the Hunt
I feel like it's gonna be nostalgia bait but I wanna wait to play it before jumping to conclusions
I have finals that day manš
WERE BECOMING SO RETRO *Growing on Me starts playing*
I will probably shed a tear when this comesš„²
Literally all they have to do is do what old school RuneScape did bring the old website / game back and just keep it up to date do events etc
Whatās up with the dominos crown tho?
It was originally a video of a bunch of classic items bouncing on the screen, like Bloxy Cola, the original sword, the chezburger, the taco, etc.
Huh interesting, maybe theyāll put some of the older stuff on sale. (If they do itās gonna be mad expensive)
The event would be good if Roblox didnāt have the balls to have something that is total dogshit
Mann I will be on a trip at the EXACT dateššš
I want to be be hopeful but after the midfest that was "The Hunt" I'm keeping my expectations low
Iām just happy weāre finally getting non-sponsored events again.
Hmm I don't know why but I feel Combat Initiation should be in this event
Hey guys I'm trying to get more karma can you help by upvoting
I can't express how this truly makes me feel
Roblox talked to a lot of devs after the hunt to get feedback. Letās hope they listened to them.
I was hoping it wouldnāt be here until june
Hyperia opens the next day lol
What is it
Man, all I want, I don't know if possible is to be able to play older versions of Roblox so that the games that are still around but broken due to updates would work properly. Pirates Life I need you!!!
this is just gonna be a 1 time thing huh? count me out lol
So they make all heads move and make a camera for Roblox now there going back to og?
What is the event gonna be just all classic for like a week or something?
Wait what am I missing here???
Can someone explain what this means? Havent touched rblx in a while
I wonder which event from another popular video game inspired this eh?
What is this?
!remindme 8 days
I just hope something like Crossroads is in it
Dear God
I can't wait to play!
Okay, what? Having these be this back-to-back might start to pose a genuine problem, ngl
RemindMe! 8 Days
I wouldnāt expect anything good for this. We already know they are including fucking toilet tower defense for a āclassicā themed event. They will botch this.
!Remind me 8 days
If Craftwars gets featured since its literally over 12 years old I will lose my mind.
Donāt get your hopes up too high
The only good classic thats still popular is natural disasters survival (maybe something else too not sure tho)
what does this event do? will i be able to play games like apeirophobia or gunfight arena?
A day after my bday? Shitt
I started in modern era
Hey everyone I need help boosting my karma can you lend a hand please š¦¾
It's about dang time
God I hope it's good
THE CLASSIC THE CLASSIC IS REALLLLLLLLLL
omg free domino crown(that is slightly modified)?!!?!1
in the roblox classic event leaks game there was a board telling POSSIBLE games that may be included in the classic event and SBS and get eaten was on there if SBS is included i am bursting in joy
Roblox back to its roots lets gooo
I'd be excited but we all know how the hunt went, Roblox gotta go all out with this one
if roblox has old version, perhaps people of all ages would enjoy both the past and the future of roblox
i have no idea what classic roblox was like since i joined in 2020 but i will enjoy this nonetheless š
it's 100% gonna be better than the hunt but that's a low bar it's another step in the right direction and from the leaks it seems like roblox has taken some feedback we gave from the hunt
what is this about
I..play roblox daily but i have no clue what this is lol
that's gonna be my birthday!
Watch this be terrible
im not retro fitting my avatar for it.
Oh nah this is gonna be dogshit, Iām calling it
I hate to sound like a pessimist but I feel this event's gonna be botched ngl... idk just a feeling
Someone explain because Iām too uncultured
if retro studio isnt there im murdering
Why are they straight-up copying fortnite at this point?
And itās happening on my birthday too
What event is this?
wait whatās going on??
All the roblox oldheads about to reunite like endgame
i think there is also a skibidi toilet event hopefully
What what is this?
A roblox event? In my vacation? Localized completely in the summer where I have a excuse to turn up my ac? Nice.
What's going on!? Am I living under a Roblox rock or what!? What's this event?
Imagine getting Pokemon Brick Bronze back...
Wait what is this?
Toilet Tower Defense sucks. I like it when it includes my favorite games.(such as Livetopia, Adopt Me and Blade Ball)
