What are kids playing today? What came after Minecraft/Roblox?
-
I feel like I haven't heard anything from younger genz about games outside of 'streamer screamer' game of the week.
Is there anything really new and unique?
They're getting bugs and keeping em in matchboxes, making them get on sticks and fight each other like Pokémon. It's brutal out there man, kids these days are tougher than us

My son plays Fortnite in addition to the other two. I don't know of any other games that offer the wide choice and peer interaction that Minecraft, Fortnite and Roblox offer.
He mainly watches streamers who play those games
My daughter was showing me some of the games-within-games on Minecraft servers. It's insane what people have made. And now Fortnite has racing!?

Attention span is so, so short now. Caught my kid playing Fortnite, then alt-tab to YouTube Shorts when they got killed. For like 10 seconds of downtime to respawn. Atrocious!
Imagine them being able to play cs and go a whole round after dying instantly to a one tap... kids definitely couldn't handle it
-
I don't know, but my kid won't be playing Roblox. That game has as many groomers and pedophiles as the Catholic Church.
And it itself is a creepy company town for bilking children.

That doesn't justify exposing him to pedos.
It's not like your throwing him into a prison cell with a pedo. Pedo's could literally be ANYWHERE online. I think you are paranoid.

There have been numerous complaints about grooming and cyber bullying on Roblox. Instead of fixing the problem, the CEO suggests that we don't let our kids use Roblox.
So we took his advice, and my kid doesn't play Roblox.

Free games like brawl stars, pirated minecraft, are way more popular than paid games like premium minecraft(at least in my country)

I grew up on the internet and survived 42 years without running into a pedo... I have been online gaming for around 30 years.. I don't blame you for protecting your kids, I would too. But I think there's more fear than reality in a lot of these stories.

And white supremacists.

Don't forget the child labor

And white supremacists.

The current streamer fad game seems to be REPO; which looks like it's just a knock off of Lethal Company, tho IMO it is a bit cuter with the way player character's heads flap with your mic when you speak.

Have you considered that when you were a kid you would have been too clueless to notice them and when you're an adult they would be not very likely to out themselves to you?
You're likely not playing the same games they would be either if the target audience of what they're lurking in is aimed at children.

I have and like I said nothing has happened not to say it can't happen I just think that the risk is relatively low

You know, I would love for games to offer child only servers with the purpose of protecting children from pedophiles.
But also, for my selfish need to not have children ruining my games in first person shooters.

I’ve noticed a strong shift to brawl stars with one of my kids and their friend group.

The idea of degeneration also comes from white supremacy btw in case you didn't know. Its what the ubermemch is/was contrary to and what the whole alpha males thing is from.
