  Roblox needs to dramatically increase moderation, but calling it social media is not true.

  It’s a game platform with a chat window in whatever game you are playing like every other online game starting with Doom in 1993.

      I don’t think there were multiplayer FPSs until Quake in 1996

        Doom had multiplayer in 1993. It just wasn’t over the internet until WinDoom came along. However, that was still before Quake.

        Both Doom and Duke Nukem had multiplayer before quake came out.

        I played MIDI Maze on Atari ST as a kid, that was long before Quake…

        Later in high school we played Doom over IPX.

        Doom had multiplayer. It didn’t have chat, though.
