I love lua, but roblox ide and general way how it works have made an impression of gimmick only used to bait parents into "my kid is learning programming", when in fact the system is pretty dull and feels too artificial.


A smart ten year old can write a game and sell it for money, that trumps your subjective aesthetic impressions.

All Roblox games are made the same way. Those should be what sets your impression of the system, not looking at the screen and curling your upper lip.


Sorry, I was on that other side of the game, which was cheating money out of me, pretending it's teaching my children something, while they and all their virtual friends were engaging in toxic gangs and "parties" built on parents money
