Hello everyone,
Since 2017, Badimo's Jailbreak has been key in my life. The game, community, and general experience of Jailbreak has been amazing, for over five years of my life. It's been wonderful, and I couldn't have wished for anything greater. With that being said, today I would like to announce that I am saying farewell to Jailbreak, and will no longer be playing it majorly. This announcement is for my entire community, but its also for me, to finally mark an official end to the Jailbreak experience.
Why am I saying farewell?
Roblox Jailbreak, and its community, has been an extremely fun part of my life for over five years. It's a truly fun game, and even today its a hard to beat experience. With that being said, lets look at 3 reasons why I am quitting Jailbreak.
Five Years! Playing any game (let alone a game on Roblox) for five years is an extreme achievement. Playing Jailbreak for all this time has been extremely fun, but because I've played the game for so long, its been boring for a while. The core aspects of the game, robbing and arresting, just isn't fun anymore for me. Seasons are broken because of how annoying they are, and usually I'd only play for five minutes to complete contracts, then leave right away. Streaming a game for two hours every week is so boring, it wouldn't be entertaining for you guys to watch. Creating videos that are new and interesting is nearly impossible, as all ideas usually have been done before. In addition to this, the creator area of Jailbreak on YouTube is dry, and dead. The last few YouTubers left playing Jailbreak are getting low views, low subscribers, and from my experience they aren't fun to watch.
Toxic Community! Over the years, as Jailbreak's player base has shrunken, and less and less people are playing, its community has become one of the most toxic spaces I know of. Every time I play Jailbreak, I must play as a criminal or I get harassed. Players attack you in chat by saying discriminatory, toxic, or generally mean messages. Blocking these users doesn't fix the problem either, as usually they have alternate accounts. This becomes a major issue when creating content, because I need to decide if I want to have the risk of this happening while recording, or streaming. Adding onto this further, recently I was sent Rule 34 content, child pornography, and explicit NSFW content online while streaming Jailbreak, because I didn't read out their offensive (racist and homophobic) username. Right now I have the choice if I want to continue streaming Jailbreak and face these constant issues, or switch up the game and not have these issues. I've chosen to move on from Jailbreak.
Bad Updates! This last point I'm making is created because I've attempted to stop this so many times. Asimo3089 and BadccVoid refuses to fix any blatant bugs and issues with the game, whilst continuing to add mediocre content to their game. I would like to follow this with two examples. For starters, there has been a "bug" with the Jailbreak jewellery store for over three months at this point, allowing police to glitch into the store while its being robbed by using a helicopter rope. This "bug" takes legitimately two seconds to fix. All they need to do is make the roof of the jewellery store a bit thicker. Simple. Three months and this hasn't been fixed yet. There are countless other bugs and glitches that could be resolved within a day of them working on them, but instead Badimo continue to ignore these bugs and glitches. Secondly, as a issue with the existing game, Jailbreak's contract system has been boring and dull for ages now. Countless people have attempted to express to Badimo that the contract system is broken, to no prevail. Contracts are not a fun thing to complete, and feel more like a chore to complete daily instead of what the system is supposed to achieve. I don't want to play a game which isn't entertaining anymore.
So that should really explain the current state of content creation with Jailbreak, the Jailbreak community, and Badimo.
Will I ever return to Jailbreak?
Although I'm positive Jailbreak will continue for years to come, I personally believe that it is not a viable option for me to play. I do not expect to return to Jailbreak is any major way, but I may create content about the rare occasion of any possible live events or major changes.
Extra Notes
I would like to personally thank everyone who joined me for my Jailbreak journey, whether you've been with me since the beginning, or just recently, its crazy to see how far we've come. I really hope you choose to stay even with the discontinuation of Jailbreak content in a major form.
Secondly, I would like to note that I hold to personal grudge towards Asimo3089 or BadccVoid in any way. Most of the time, they have directly been kind, even giving me special unique codes for exclusive in-game rewards. I would however like to say that Badimo are blinded by the previous success of Jailbreak, and fail to notice their player bases' opinion.
I think that generally covers it all. I will however update you if anything major comes up, or changes. Be sure to join my Discord community for news and updates. Thanks!
Best of regards,
Bloxay
