End of day, parents are the on

2021-08-16

End of day, parents are the ones spending cash to buy robux. In fact, with limited time to play during schooldays, the kids will be more inclined to bug their parents to purchase robux to advance their progressions in game.

Playtime will definitely decrease, but I doubt spending will drop much. I do not have any shares in this as I think it's a dumb game
