Arseny Kapoulkine@castano @ballmatthew The “losses” are accounting BS due to revenue deferral. But otherwise yeah creator cut and app store fees are similar in magnitude, see pie chart on https://create.roblox.com/docs/production/earning-on-roblox

Roblox is Already the Biggest Game In The World. Why Can't It Make a Profit (And How Can It)? — MatthewBall.co

@k_narkowicz Interesting read. Thanks for sharing!
