the devs have pursued every bad idea and settled on 'child labor and exposing kids to fucked up shit seems profitable' so yeeeeeahh.... the game industry looks at them and hangs their head in shame

    To be clear, the “game industry” has no shame so this is inaccurate. In fact, there are a few companies trying to recreate their success.

    I can only speak of the dev scene where I live, but I know many many devs who have had the opportunity to work for Roblox and did not because of their rep. I know exactly one who did go to work for them, and that person was... kinda a dick.

    I do not see any local companies trying to emulate the child labor shit, but any time something is successful assholes will try to copy it. hopefully they lose their shirts in the process.
