Roblox doesnt even try to shine some bright to the underrated games, its just any games that makes roblox more money they'll get all the light towards it. I honestly blame roblox for this as finding new games to play on the platform becomes ridiculously hard and annoying. There are a few good games like block tales (check that game out) but we need more of that.
There is so many underrated and low played games that noone may be satisfied if they cannot find something to make them not be bored. I recently tried a game called "Sundowner" and never knew anything about the devs or such, yet the game was very interesting and completely unique.
I guess it's matter of finding a game that suits each player's "tastes" but doing so it's hard nowadays that people keep sticking to the same games and calling roblox "boring".
this is probably a bad recommendation, but i would just make my own games, in my opinion, making a game to play with your friends can be fun, if you have an idea you just make it, im going to make an idea i had earlier just because why not (ik learning coding and stuff is hard, but its well worth it)
imo, the game is still pretty boring overall. im not saying that you need to play well made games in order to have fun, but if we are being honest a majority of roblox games just arent well made (them being unoriginal/copies would matter a lot less if they were still good), and its a lot harder to have fun on a bad game. the thing about the few good games, besides them being difficult to find, is that they usually barely have any content and are similar in style. u would genuinely be hard pressed to consistently find well made games on roblox that arent platformers, turn based, beat em ups, or arena fighters that have more than 4 hours of content and arent stylized to be blocky. a lot of people play roblox because they dont have the means to play other games, so it can be annoying to only find a game you can play for half a day thats similar to other games u have played. even if u dont play roblox as much, its still just not fun having to scrounge around for games (especially when a lot of youtubers talk about the same 5).
I think It’s because roblox Is greedy and they want kids to buy microtransactions (If they get them they’ll push the game into the algoritm for even more money). It’s other youtubers Job to recommend underrated games that they think it deserves more player count (than the others you mentioned 💀) and love(and make roblox great again for anybody). It’s SAd that Not everything makes it to the discovery tab. Sure every good game doesn’t needs to be underrated i get it. Just seeing someone crafting a good game (of any genre) but get no attetion it deserves feels kinda sad. Ig that’s the reason why some people say that old roblox was better……
all the games are the same the discover page has the same games everyday not recommending, all the amazing games are dead. Games target 8 year old's and there all copy and paste. Everything is an rng, the simulators suck, mm2 like bruh all you do in mm2 is walk around and wait couple seconds it's a loop and it's full of emo avatars
