Kids Relief: The $100M Charity Teaching Kids To Gamble In Roblox

[1:07:28, channel: mrixrt]

Quick video summary:

  1. There's a few charities, Comic Relief and Kids Relief. They've done a few questionable things over years.
  2. Such as commissioning a few educational games aimed at children, and then put the net profit gained from them to good use. ...The games are AFK brainrot with gacha mechanics and zero educational value.
  3. Also the games are on Roblox! We were talking about net profit here. Roblox eats a huge part of the pie.
  4. And the development house themselves? It was started by a few YouTubers and it all goes downhill from there.

That whole "game" needs to be shut down, but it won't because it's making people money

Lootbox gambling is a cancer...extra cancer points for aiming it at kids...and wow, that revenue split is insane, no wonder Roblox is such a rich, publicly traded company. Sigh.
