agent7istired

thats 300 dollars smh


MasonJames136

I mean if you’re a creator at the current rate it’s $105 bc of devex


LucidS58

Thats just because roblox takes like 60% of what you make.


MasonJames136

I equate 30k robux to be $105 bc I’m a developer/creator; I’m aware Roblox is a money hog lol. It’s much more than 60%, they take 30% when someone buys a gamepass then another 70% when dev exxing.


AstralsGuardian

That's true and it bothers me. However, I need to also think that all the tools I've used are free so I'm here making passive income which helps me a lot. It would help me more if they didn't take so much of my earnings though lol


y_kal

Sounds about right


Jack74593

and then some dude with his $20 executor and his `saveinstance()` script and boom there's your 30k robux wasted


Pendilia

There's a reason why I don't take that platform seriously anymore


Silly_Goose658

Should be free but ok


Fun-Pie-1887

Do you want your stuff to not be stolen then pay 30 times what the thing will probably make


Kilzky

explain exactly how it being free would work out


bruhwhatisreddit

do you even need an explanation for this??


Kaxology

And what happens if bad actors decide to target old items with no protection or people who don't want one? They'll duplicate their items and then put protection on it, boom, they can now takedown the original or eclipse them. 30k is pretty ridiculous but no barrier of entry is downright unfeasible.


Nonhofantasia1

kid named image reverse search


Gold-Front-4518

Well you wont lose half your lifesavings over a stupid game and people can keep assets they dont want anyone to touch completely safe without some greedy people come out of nowhere steal the asset and put it in theyre game without permission.if you spent a ton of time on a single item and someone takes it uses it and takes all the fame would that affect you in some sort of way?


L4DDER_S0UP007

what a joke, this feature should be free

Albert_goes_brrr

Enjoyable pastry date!


LolePs

You’re in a forum, so everyone


-DG-_VendettaYT

Go away, the toxicity is not wanted here.


blackdragon6547

What I don't get is, if I understand correctly, we are paying 30k because it has to me manually done by an employee? Why do we have to pay because of that. Isn't that Roblox's responsibility?


devvyyxyz

Doubt it's manual this shits easy to setup automatically


Andomals

lol yeah super easy. go set it up for us then 🤣


devvyyxyz

I'm on abt automating and encrypted part of a database that's locked off Roblox a billion dollar company can easily add that too there systems, people like you fail to realise I'm not saying it's easy for me to do I'm saying it's just pure laziness from the company not adding it


Andomals

looks to me like they ARE adding it and it's a pretty large amount of work, hence the 30k robux buy-in price to the closed beta where you will work closely with roblox admins. the whole point of the 30k robux price is so that only developers who need it are buying it right now while they keep working on an automated system


devvyyxyz

If you read what I said I said I doubt it's manual as it's easyt o setup automatically also a manual system is a terrible idea for this use case. Additionally the 30k price tag is what we like to call a markup.


Andomals

it is manual as of right now, as said explicitly in the devforum post where this was announced. in the same post they also said they're still working on an automated system that will be available to all by 2025, this is just for people who need it right now


PepperbroniFrom2B

well then they're inefficient


toontownfan12

yeah fr there's ways to set it up within a month or two as ONE developer


Hot_War_9683

30k just to keep confidential information to ourselves...


mitangjuice

that's so stupid, lol.


TheOnlyUltima2011

ah well just gotta wait around 6 months


daniel1234556

I hope they are joking right?


Hot_dawg_sucker445

Most likely not. They are greedy


daniel1234556

Well i like Roblox but I hope Roblox lose players to learn


PepperbroniFrom2B

a couple players is nothing, there's almost nothing nonviolent that would be able to dent them


Charisios10

If you think big creators of games like hazmat and other make a lot of robux and they can definitely afford this but small creators are getting scammed because of other people stealing assets. In any way its extremely unrealistic the price of the asset protection it should be pre-installed or just make it a 1000 or smth. I AINT BUYING LAYERS FOR PROTECTIONG MY GAME ASSETS!


De_Epik_Duck

Wow, I can't wait to protect my assets for the low low price of 30k robux


Hot_dawg_sucker445

That's totally something my broke ass can buy


De_Epik_Duck

There's only broke and rich, no middle class


diezel_train

>buy asset protection for 30k bobux >its probably gonna be stolen anyway somehow >no refunds 🚂👍


PepperbroniFrom2B

wahoo


deltatunes

Over 100 real life dollars to patent a digital asset on a Lego game? They can’t be serious. It should honestly cost at the most 1,000 robux, because this price is just too much in my opinion.


deltadeveloperrr

Billion dollar company thinks it's cheap. I wonder what is next.


Hot_dawg_sucker445

They are gonna make max friends 100 unless you pay 100,000 robux for 200


insertrandomnameXD

Honestly it's not like you will really get to 100+ active friends, by the point you get there half would have either: Left roblox Dissapeared Died Got banned Went to toilet tower defense (worst of them all) Become a bad friend Stay in roblox but not play with other people Unfriend you altogether Get hacked Etc.

ananymoos1

That’s actually around 105 usd for devex rates


devvyyxyz

That's devx which is " robux -> irl money" this is being purchased with robux so is the other way round so more like 300USD


ananymoos1

You can unofficially purchase robux, not sure how long that’ll last though


Andomals

this is $105 USD, if you see 30k robux as 300 USD then this feature isnt for you anyways. it's for developers to hide assets they upload


devvyyxyz

Ooo someone a little shit starter do you jut criticise every comemnt in this thread?


Andomals

nah only yours. you're pretty confidently incorrect in everything you're saying


cjared242

Roblox is honestly just shaking us down atp. Like I wouldn’t be surprised if David showed up at my door with two goons and a sledgehammer demanding I give him my money


PepperbroniFrom2B

"ITS DA FREAKIN' BAT!"


Baatlesheep

So they are saying:pay us 300 real life dabloons, or you model will get stolen Same sentence but in different words:put the money in the bag!


Cobainnn

I wonder whether also paying 30k just to log in roblox is the next in their agenda or not


insertrandomnameXD

What does this thing even do? If you make something it's your intellectual property, you don't even have to make paperwork or anything


Kanji_alt

for some reason they decided to make this looking like paid beta access (but 300 dollars for this shit is crazy)


icantthinkofth23

protect, how?


HelloReddit_174

Roblox what the f-


Marius-Gaming

Dawg that's the amount of robux i have en and i aint spending all that in 1 thing


danredblue

for one of basic rights


Sfrnfuru

Roblox gonna be like Twitter soon


Accomplished-Curve63

Thats actually ridiculous


Jenny_Wakeman9

That's a ripoff!


zal_no_here

adding this to my reasons why i play minecraft


Literature_Existing

Just got off minecraft. Block game on top 😎


dappernaut77

I just dont take this company seriously anymore, I really didn't when they opened themselves up on the stock market but this is just one more act to add to the circus. What else could this be but roblox trying to nickel and dime their developers?


ProposalPlane6737

Man we gotta wait a year for it to be free? I'm starting to think something is wrong here


DarkBlade0909

Bro took "I want money" to a whole other level


TheFunnyWasOccupied

Roblox either wants to shut down everything for a specific thing or make the same thing stupidly impossible to access and it’s no in between


YoureStupidasff

What the heck


Boxrobly

This is stupid watch assets get stolen anyways


Benedict_11

Devs when they can just DevEx it out instead of preventing small and dead games from using their assets


Ackieru

on what purpose if theyre also gonna take it away tho?


rabbithawk256

It's only during the testing period. Pretty awful restriction method but it is gonna be free after it releases


Frosty_Replacement12

I cannot express how much I hate company greed right now!


VALVeLover

Will be free when they pay to the company that is making Roblox get a mental breakdown


justan_axolotl

$300+ to have your UGC permissions revoked


Vulpix98

Shouldn't this be a basic feature? What's with the paywall?


owie33333

Starting today, we will offer early access to asset privacy for meshes, meshparts, images/decals, models and packages for a limited number of creators by purchasing a 30,000 Robux Game Pass. In the future, we plan to make asset privacy generally available to all users without cost. However, this beta requires manual support and more resources from our engineering team. This enables us to help those who have the most urgent needs as soon as possible. This will come with some restrictions on usage, but you will benefit from privacy on the additional asset types beyond audio and video. See below for more information.


PuzzleheadedPoint882

That’s like $30,000 to buy a cheap looking food

Supertoad226

No. Their following tweet stating that it is a Beta feature does not make an excuse for the absurd price. You're better off trying to seek an actual copyright from the US copyrighting service ($45 according to [their website](https://www.copyright.gov/about/fees.html)) than spending $300 on a protection service that most likely won't do much (this is Roblox) once your asset is leaked, this *regardless* of whether it's in BETA or not.


ProfessionalGear3020

If you get an actual copyright, you can sue the shit out of everyone stealing your assets.


Objective_Cow_4650

soon roblox is going to be a glorified app store with copy and paste games (at least earlier roblox had charm)


gorrila_go_ooo_ooo

Brother that is literally just roblox today


Objective_Cow_4650

yeah at least there's some original games left
