What is Roblox? ROBLOX is an online virtual playground and workshop, where kids of all ages can safely interact, create, have fun, and learn. It’s unique in that practically everything on ROBLOX is designed and constructed by members of the community. ROBLOX is designed for 13 to 18 year olds, but it is open to people of all ages. Each player starts by choosing an avatar and giving it an identity. They can then explore ROBLOX — interacting with others by chatting, playing games, or collaborating on creative projects. Each player is also given their own piece of undeveloped real estate along with a virtual toolbox with which to design and build anything — be it a navigable skyscraper, a working helicopter, a giant pinball machine, a multiplayer “Capture the Flag” game or some other, yet-to-be-dreamed-up creation. There is no cost for this first plot of virtual land. By participating and by building cool stuff, ROBLOX members can earn specialty badges as well as ROBLOX dollars (“Robux”). In turn, they can shop the online catalog to purchase avatar clothing and accessories as well as premium building materials, interactive components, and working mechanisms.

The main thing to focus on is that the characters in early access go free right after, so really . Its a PAY TO LOSE

[TheFishyBoi]

The only reason why metal bats 1st move did half damage is because it was the ONLY move at the time.

[ArlecchinoFan]

The other thing is that people will say it’s pay to win then when it’s free they use the character every day until a new character comes out

The early access gamepass is for people who don't like waiting. It's sometimes seems pay to win cauz the charater may have an OP move that the devs didn't noticed yet.
It's just cool to play a new charater.

It all depends on what the developers do at the time. Since it was the only move set in metal bat, its damage increases, but over time we find move set damage to decrease as more move sets are given. Ninja is an example, as before its first move set was very powerful, but as time went on, the damage from that oldest (or first move set) decreased by damage. So it’s somewhat pay to win when you think about it, at least it’s only pay to win for that time. It will never be pay to win for an extended amount of time, it’s simply giving those early access players a bit of a boost with that move set till others are released.

It kind of is because if you've not noticed yet, the developers dont nerf these early access movesetes until they're almost done, that leaves them usually with big damage, and moves that are incredibly easy to land and use

[observer]

that end hit harder than it should have

[submeme]

it kinda is when the moveset releases cuz there not any ways found to counter it so you have a advantage until people find a way to counter your moves

[ritzcat_]

The only time I would have considered it "pay to win" is during when Genos and then Sonic were being added. But even then, it was just more annoying rather than unfair, since they were new characters that you had to get used to. And they became free not too long later, so it doesn't really matter

[goodwife]

Yea i guess it really does depend on the character. Sometimes important stuff like a move having the ability to trigger death counter or actually be blocked just gets forgoten and then its P2W until those oversights are corrected. The Devs leave characters in early access after their moveset is finished so that they can balance them correctly before making them free because of the moves needing more testing to be made fair.

[medicgaming]

early access characters are intentionally made broken to make up for their missing moves, mechanicd and passives. they repeated this mistake with genos, sonic and now metal bat

[crellebomb]

Are we just gonna ignore the fact he has almost 77 THOUSAND HOURS in The SBG..

[otpgrzo]

People really think that using WIP character that dont even have full amount of abilities, combos and ult is OP.

[bhajanchandra]

1:56 bro forgot when sonic was in dev💀

[lamprey]

A funny thing happened to me in 2v2 A ninja was somehow able to use his ult three times in one round

[Johns-Verse]

1:34 bro just said “STAY DOWN STAY DOWN!!”

[jackg]

I thought it's was p2w (this was Genos) then I learned how to block😂 I still got early access for Genos though

[Penahawk]

Saitama: punching
Garou: grabbing
Genos: long range
Sonic: lightweight and rapid
Metal bat: down smashing
Gojo: one shotting

[killerrwp]

well this aged well
(taking into account you can get all of your ultimate back by timing the meteor, having MULTIPLE one shot combos, multiple extenders, incredible movement ability, stealing kills being made a breeze, multiple multi hit moves, and more)

[skill.issue.]

I honestly agree, Appenratly this game require skills so people who call P2W are just crying about how there skills suck, and it backs me up because the powers on Adrenaline demon only is 2 (as of 7/28/23) so you need a lot of skills, to beat an opponent with e.g genos
