Why Roblox's The Hunt Mega Edition FAILED

Roblox's The Hunt 2 Mega Edition event with the $1 million prize looks to have been a massive fail and here's why.

07:54 Why It Failed

A possible explaination for the lack of visits: less games were involved, meaning people had to join the lobby a fewer amount of times.

The reason I think why the livestream failed to get a lot of views is because once the event was over every player that didn’t get in the top 10 or didn’t finish the event just forgot about it since they wouldn’t get anything outta it, you just got to see 10 people play games for 1 million dollars

The reason why the hunt 2 has less visits is because it has 4X less games than the hunt 1

I'm actually surprised by this. Mega Edition honestly felt like it was more popular and hype then the last.

I regret having missed the 2018 egg hunt because I was just playing random games where I barely cared about popular games and I hadn't received the news about the event.

This event was doomed from the start tbh, especially when we heard of the final prize

New gen kids saying this event was better than the egg hunts knowing they will never experience an egg hunt or has never. Every egg hunts surpasses this mid event

Remember, The Hunt First Edition had 100 games, while The hunt mega edition only had 25, so each time someone would progress in each event, they would go back into the lobby to go through a portal to bring them to another game, so each player that fully completed each event probably would've gone thru the hunt's lobby 100 times and mega editions lobby 30 times (25 tokens + 5 puzzles)

While I would agree on the rest of the points being made here, I probably would not have included the stock information, because this isnt a roblox related issue, since the ENTIRE stock market seems to be dying rn

No Roblox, stop doing dev hunts, they won’t work!

[ToasterHers]

i think since the stakes were so high people thought it was impossible for them to even win, so they didn't bother

[DR_MR]

I never even opened this event, I had no idea it was actually even happening

[theterrarian]

The real reason why people say that The mega edition was fun is because of people coming together to solve puzzles. Let's be real, they only came together just because there was prize money involved. Every lobby and game I was in always had a player talking about the prize money.

The finale should have happen on Weekend

Great event? Yes. Better than Egg Hunt? No. Best event we so far have in the 2020-2025 Gen of events. Some of it sucked and some of it were almost great

[theawesomeali]

despite the event being “decent”, the marketing fell off in every aspect, and they are not going to recover from this loss. Maybe next time they won’t make these useless and terrible events, and instead actually start banning the horrendous assets and groups while actually protecting younger audiences.

[Aajd]

only 1 person wins it while the whole roblox community fights for it. Guess why no one would go for the prize.

[poluefemus]

one of my friends who played the first hunt, didnt play this one
i think people are just tired of bad events, so now they dont even bother checking it out

0:46 I think this is an old image. Why? Because Alexnewtron is in it.

Egg hunt 2018 was the best roblox event i have ever experienced
