I want you guys to decide what is better Minecraft or Roblox. Personally, I like Minecraft better because you can basically do whatever you want, and you can troll your friends

Definately Minecraft! I know I am going to sound like a hypocrite, but Roblox just feels and looks cheap. I used to like Roblox a LOT and I still do like some Roblox games like City Life, Ninja Legends, Warrior Cats: Ultimate Edition, and Pokémon Brick Bronze, but Roblox doesn't come close to Minecraft.
Roblox let alone Project Spark, Dreams, Mario Maker/Game Builder garage or others are cool but Minecraft I think while it is was it is. The others offer more tools to make different things.
Minecraft I think works if you know what your doing withini it's limits but if you want a game of survival then sure just play updates, mod it however you want and still get a fair experience without having to build your own or play a bunch of servers/other's creations.
I prefer just modding Minecraft with tons of tech mods, quality of life and going. It's why I don't buy other survival games is because modding Minecraft and the game's core itself is so easy to do and the other games just don't have enough going for them to me. They have core and a few aspects sure but I can swap out whatever I want with Minecraft mods, they can be fluids, mechanically, steam, magical/fictional. I came up with XP or Enchanted Book tech mods it's in line with the game but still fictional, to a bunch of others.
Most are still the same repetitive steam generators, typical machines. Where is my Hydrator, where is this fictional cool gameplay idea block we never see them it's just sad how lacking some people's imagination is.
Oh we have these building mechanics sure it's different but annoying. Oh we have these bigger model blocks, no thanks I want compact blocks not taking up more space/realism to them.
Other games go too close to reality or the surface level mods (fiction barely getting pushed because laziness and safe easy to understand things yeah but it gets boring) and I find them boring/lacking.
Same problems i have with nostalgic Indies games is surface level ideas and just boring from there (platformers, racing mostly or we get safe oh this era of wars in shooters like just come up with something fictional then a recreation of something safe) they lack depth/originality and just feel like fan games. Dumbed down experiences I'm sick of seeing so heavily.
It's disgustingly safe and hilarious the gaming industry is that way. You get the odd good original Indies but many are safe recreations of surface level good games from the past or look licenses, look this period in history, look this, look that and nothing but.
Why even bother if it's just repeating history for emotional highs people have and nothing but just weak game design. It's just wasted development and easy money.
The fact Roblox has it's business model sure. But at least the games in it many are still original I'll give them that. Or just the tweaks they need to be good for quality of life to be fun to play (from videos I have no experience or interest in Roblox).
Unrelated, but I have a fun fact!; There is a total of 92040 discussion questions for the PS3, PS4, and PS Vita's. Because thirty per page, 3068 pages, so multiply, and yeah ^^
Both have been a massive part of my childhood, but I'm going to have to give it to Minecraft for reasons you may not think.
Roblox Corp., nowadays, is generally very predatory, leeching money from people through a young, impressionable audience. Minecraft feels a lot more innocent in this regard.
That's not to say the games - er, experiences - reflect the nature of the corporation. There are some decently fun games on there, and there isn't much denying that.
edit:
In all truth, they're two entirely different things, so it isn't really a fair comparison. This age-old question is kind of like putting a pair of shades and a can of WD-40 beside one another and trying to figure out which one is better.
