Is EpicGames involved with Roblox? Because as far as minors go, I hear THAT game is a dumpster fire with zero redeemable qualities.

Not really, no. It's clear that Epic took way worse a direction than Digital Extremes.

Digital Extremes, the makers of Warframe?

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

Indeed. DE branched off from Epic Games in the 90s, I believe. Obviously took a more ethical direction.

As per their download page https://www.roblox.com/download , no. Not to say EGS is good, it's Roblox treasuring independency where they can.

Going by the claims their CEOs make you could swap them and things would progress as usual. Or regress, rather.
