Student Beans, a discount app for students, recently did a research, regarding the most popular and favorite games in the world. There is Roblox on the list, but not because it has a lot of players or makes money. Then why?
The parameters used are based on the game's existence on Twitter, number of Reddit followers, Twitch, estimated earnings, monthly searches on Google and Youtube. From that, the top five titles are Fortnite, Pokemon, Minecraft, League of Legends and PUBG.
Carrying out an assessment using several metrics, is very important. Because if you only use one point of view, for example only referring to Google searches, you can get inaccurate results. For example, the favorite game in the style of Student Beans fell to Roblox, reported by us from The Gamer, Thursday (9/6/2022).
However, gamers' interest in this online gaming platform does not come from the number of players or the amount of income generated. However, only because more people are searching for it on Google.
Interestingly, it's not about tips or how to make your own game on the platform. Student Beans dug through the data and found that the most searched term was 'Is Roblox down?'.
At least the average search recorded, there are as many as 246,000 players asking about servers that die every month. Then the most popular keyword in the second place is 'Are hackers in Roblox real?'
Finally, fans asked whether this free game will close in 2023. Roblox itself is known to experience frequent server outages, and gamers usually complain about it through the official Twitter account.
Even research also revealed, they had experienced 36,000 blackouts in May. With the game inaccessible, more than 20 thousand times over a 24-hour period. Where on average, Roblox has 500 reports per day.
