*important* this should be very obvious but *please* don't go and harass people just because i mention them in a roblox video. no matter what bad things they did, just don't go n annoy them. thanks. this should really be common sense... *extra* q: "roblox was created in 2006!!!" a: it was released in 2006, however it was in development (and at some points, even playable to the public) in 2003, 2004 and 2005. q: "bill wurtz copy!!!" a: the video idea was inspired by both bill wurtz' "the history of" series, and sipover's parody of said series, however fun fact: making videos on the history of things has existed well before both of those LOL q: "this video sucks, you forgot to mention ____!!!" a: the video was already a 30 minute two-part series, ofc i didn't mention a small event that happened in like 2014 that wasn't important. however, there were a few genuinely important things i left out, like the deletion of brick bronze and more *corrections* - erik & david left interactive physics in 2002, and goblocks wasnt started until after that - the play counts displayed for 2004-05 minigames are unconfirmed, and may be completely wrong. - the small humanoid design showed near the end of 2005 was not made by mike rayhawk, but it is still what they ended up choosing instead of mike rayhawk's design concepts. - the model shown made by erik.cassel was not the first model, but all of his models were uploaded around the same time. - roblox was marked as ""released"" on the 1st of september 2006, but was playable before that and was intentionally released without a lot of features to get feedback on them later. - i accidentally said around 13:29 that sword fight on the heights was made by miked. this was because i copied and pasted the text box but forgot to change the creator. fun fact: it was not made by miked - t-shirts were only tested in january, not fully released. they were fully released in march of 2007

i remember when roblox was so unpopular that when a player got online, a person at headquarters would immediately join them. good times, good times...

A wholesome thing you forgot to mention: In January 15th 2010 roblox started the hats for Haiti event, where you would buy a specific hat for 15 robux, and the total amount of money roblox would earn from that hat would be donated to the cause to help rebuild Haiti. Personally I think this was the best event roblox has ever done.

i remember when my friend started playing roblox when it first started. it was late 2006, maybe early 2007. he said that every time he got online, someone would join him so he wasn’t lonely, but it was obvious that it was one of the workers. i also remember hearing that they were going to hire a high school student to play roblox during the summer as a job, so that when a player came online, they’d have someone to play with. good times… now roblox can’t get their moderation straight.

This is... actually extremely impressive. It's well written, the research was done well, the voiceovers are good, actually all in all a quality video :)

its crazy to think that 5 concurrent players was so exciting to david back then

I once spoke to the creator of survive the disasters around 2 years ago, they’re a really cool person actually.

I signed up in July of 2008; the whole "changing the shape of studs" thing was a massive controversy at the time! People were really upset about it lol

Dang Roblox... started around 2007-2008, I'm now 25. I loved every moment of those early game interactions with friends and randoms, doing events, meeting Telamon and a couple other devs and totally flipping out, eventually working my way to a valkyrie hat(I even remember Double Hat Glitching). Man that was so fun learning how to script, unfortunately, I fell to the dark side around 13 years old and was banned for hacking. R.i.p was so sad I never played again, ign -Kgon

Dude the amount of time you put in researching, making, and editing this video was probably insane, and by the sound of your voice, astounding for your age. Great job! I absolutely loved this video.

Oh god, I had a sudden explosion of nostalgia when Survive the disaster is mentioned

“The average price of a candy bar in new york” *shows 380 million dollars* Thats a fun size candy bar

This was a very well edited video, I loved watching these types of internet/game history videos. Keep it up!

"They tried adding hair to Roblox. Here's what it looked like...don't laugh" *_I laughed_* I'm smiling right now

"Currently, the user with the most robux in 2007 had 3,000 robux" 14 years later and that's still more robux than what most players have Edit: Thanks for making this comment popular!

great job on 100k! this video taught me a lot i didn’t know and although i don’t usually play roblox, it was pretty cool seeing the progress from then to now! congrats!

I’m not an og or anything but I have a cousin who is now 26 who made a roblox account in 2012, she personally experienced some events on the website which is pretty cool

“They tried to add hair here’s what it looks like…..don’t laugh” Me: *laughs*

Actual hidden gem of a channel I really hope you blow up and get the attention you deserve :)

im 22 now, just been looking around for old roblox stuff back when i played in 2008 - 2012. thank you for the great video man, brilliantly made.

i know lots about roblox's history and yet i still found myself learning something new. great video!

just finished the video, wanted to say the editing and visuals were amazing and i really liked all the jokes, i thought they were really funny :D this was also really nostalgic because i started playing in 2012 and i remember playing survive the disaster, epic mining 2, and sword fight on the heights and this video brought back a lot of memories i didn't know i had

“...who had previously worked with Lego” That explains so much

So much effort would've had to be put into this video, this channel deserves more attention.

I love this SOOO much bro you get new subscriber

Roblox events back then: hey you wanna murder kids on a giant Tall rocks for a badge? Roblox events now: help how do i put ksi singing in video?

*Keyumi: “(Maybe if this update continues, they might remove guest mode.”* *2 achievements unlocked:* *Achievment unlocked: Predicted the future of Roblox* *Achievment unlocked: Reason why Guest(s) we’re removed* Edit: YOOOOOO 200 LIKES!

Bro you are insane at editing the video was Beautiful I was laughing sometimes and sometimes surprised keep up the good work:D

2006: “pros use toolbox” 2021: *IMAGINE USING TOOLBOX*

DUDE HOW DOES THIS ONLY HAVE 550 VIEWS THIS IS SO UNDERRATED

Anyone remember the Bloxysaurus Rawx hood? Yeah, the accessory has been completely wiped off the avatar shop, it’s not in unavailable items, don’t expect for the mesh to load when you use it, it’s broken sadly :(

15:55 "who killed justin bieber obby" im laughing so hard rn

this brought back so much memories, i remember "continue as guest" i played as a guest so much, i miss the old days

"oh, models were created" "that's fun. uh, we have, ball. here's another logo change."

5:26 this is so wholesome. roblox has grown so much, i wonder what david thinks? the thing is he has been on roblox day 1 but so many changes are happening to roblox. i wonder if its him making the decisions or some different dev team working for roblox

This was pretty cool and gave off that all around mixed nostalgia.

unironically some of the best roblox content on the platform nice

destroy man: *exists* *destroy man gets banned* Well he really did get destroyed like he asked

"egg hunts that happen every year" me: "crying sounds"

Can we all agree that this kid took his time making these videos to people who are ungrateful he deserves a reward

My heart genuinely sank when I saw Resident Evil: Build to survive. It was one of my first played levels and 13 years later I still remember it. Back when guns were just rectangular blocks...

Him: models were added what do we have here ball me:"dying of intense laughter"

this is actually such a good covering, i love this

High quality, fairly in depth and well organised. If this was a school project I'd give it an A

Fun fact: (7:19) the username "Reverse_Polarity" is a reference to the 3rd Doctor in the TV Show "Doctor Who"

when i saw the "choose your character" image i instantly got flashbacks to like 2013? 2012? somewhere at that time when i started playing

Before: Cool lego game Now: *People making games in it so 10 year olds can become toxic*

I’ve never witnessed such awesome editing as this one.

LOL ArticunoX. I spent a lot of time with him in mumble and teamspeak back in the day. This vid is truly a blast from the past

the editing and the humor is so good dude

Dude you are godlike. The Bill Wurtz inspiration is great. The Blinx music in the begining, amazing. Good humor. And omg you composed the games page music yourself. You're a champ.

man you really nailed the style of the original bill wurtz video, good job

0:25 I love the lack of love put into that applauses

This is such a good video on Roblox's evolution and history, it really gives me nostalgia with the old clients and stuff. Make more of these!

Never to think I would of actually see lando in this list, man he made my day every time I played the roblox Pokémon brick bronze game

Honestly, I'm surprised that I just watched a whole 20 minute long video, it felt like 2 minutes went by.

I'm 26, I played this a lot when I was younger it was so awesome. There was a Arcade made by someone popular at the time called NintendoZACHAREY and he joined me on a empty server of his and showed me a secret password room outside the arcade! Oh I miss those days. I get on only to play Surf lol

This is the first of these video essays that I've watched that suits my humour perfectly AND gives me information on something I always played but never knew much about. Instant subscription right here.

"But your time is up." " lock your doors. " That got me laughing out loud

rip pokemon brick bronze, you will forever me my favorite. from a time where i would be learning multiplication and now i have to pick my electives

You deserve to win the best comedy award for KZfaq

stairway to heaven back then: just a cool showcase stairway to heaven now: PAIN INDUCING TIERED OBBY

When you realized that the standard sword was so old:*TURNS INTO A OLD MAN*

i find it incredibly coincidental how i get super into blinx and its ost, and then start watching your channel alot and u use blinxes ost in ur vid lol

i just realized you posted this on my bday 🙂

That time when I enjoyed playing as a guest without knowing I can create an account. Playing Apocalypse Rising, Natural Disasters, Spongebob horde (i cant remember the original name), Boys vs Girls. Wow.... Times have changed a lot... I played at 2010 or 2011 thanks to my cousin. Edit: Wait... EPIC MINING, SURVIVE THE DISASTERS, I CAN REMEMBER NOW.

Who else remembers the old gift cards when going to Wally World or the gas station?

Honestly Its about time i give my opinion, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS VIDEO

the nostalgia of seeing the later 06-08 shot me back, good lord man, good days, i miss playing this game religiously as a kid

You have no idea how much of a masterpiece this video is

Man your channel is so goddam underrated i hope one day you get a lot of subs and views jesus christ this blown up

such a iconic video

This was a beautiful story😌✨️

Miked’s paintball game was holding up well for quite a while

this is so gud

I got my start in Roblox around 2009-2010, during its "golden years". I was around 10 years old at the time. I mainly played the obstacle courses, or "obbys", as I was a major platforming nut at the time, playing things like Sonic and Mario. I also remember the cart rides, and the escape rooms, or something like that. I haven't really been on Roblox that much in recent years. I have an account but I'm usually busy with work and life that I don't have time to go on. I think I remember back then around 2010 that I didn't even have an actual account, I was just a guest user, which I don't even think they have those anymore.

I feel like you’re good at presenting projects.

Damn man, a lot of good upcoming youtubers are popping up everywhere and you're definitely one of em. Really good and accurate video man

“I can now report somebody For killing me in sword heights on the heights” Ah yes Classic Roblox memes

I never knew some furniture/building models are LITERALLY just under two decades old! It feels timeless.

Heli Wars: Desert Attack was one of the first games I played, I can’t tell you how much I played that game, a literal addiction

i love how every time a milestone of users was reached the person who got that milestone gets password guessed

This is actually so good! This needs more views!

I LOVE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC ITS FROMA SHORT HIKE!!!!

you sir earned a subscriber !

lots of information, good explanations. I wish I had your talent to grab the user through humor and jokes like that!

Me: "Mom can I have bill wurtz?" Mom: "No we have bill wurtz at home" Bill Wurtz at home:

14:30 les go I was waiting for u to show work at a pizza place cause it was made in 2007

14:20 and finally the client is no longer IN COMIC SA-

Crazy to think Lando started off with a Hide and Seek game and went on to make games like PBB/LL And also mega servers, where now you can have more than 100 players in a server

I'm surprised this channel only has 1k subs. I cant wait to see you grow pal!

I remember og games, guests and just having fun everyday plus obbies

It was awesome how roblox did their own type of thing, being more original and different. Now the catalog is just taken up by a ton of items that mimic limiteds which kinda ruins it. Example with the glowing eyes face and items mimicking that.

As a roblox 2009 player, This has to be the best video explaining everything, Great Work

bro this is underrated! the jokes and edits were sick!

your voice has changed so much lmao, i get jumpscared every time i watch old videos

Great video! Although in 2010 Apocalypses rising by Gusmanak was also one of the biggest, All the way too 2017

Thanks for uploading this video, one of the games you mentioned called Survive the Disasters was a game that me, my brother and my friends used to play alot back in 2013 and it is very nostalgic to go back and play it! I said in chat that its been almost 10 years since I played this game and someone did O_O in chat hahaha.

i love how $20 million is worth 4 quid xd the video is so funny aswell, just you say something incredible, then right after you say: "heres a jar of milk or something idk"

Daym this brings me back :,)
