Most of you may have seen the dozen Twitter and DevForum comments/posts regarding the future removal of 2D faces in 2026. Many have seen it as a bad thing, as they like 2D faces, but some see it as a good thing that Roblox is moving forward.
My opinion goes as follows: it’s a horrible thing to remove ‘legacy’ content when there’s no reason to remove it, that does not mean that Dynamic heads are a bad thing, they are a good technology, just executed in the wrong manner.
What is your view on it? Do you believe it’s a good or bad change? Do you think they should keep one, the other, or both? What would you do in Roblox’s situation?
Roblox is totally just doing it so that more people will use their own faces for the facial expression feature, AKA free training data for their AI. Why else would they require all faces to be camera compatible, if not to encourage you to use your camera?
very very stupid change (even tho I never really play games where I use my own avatar, and I use a face accessory that hides my avatar’s face anyways and I do use a dynamic face on one of my avatars but that’s because it gives me cat ears and it was free)
