Blox Slop

Roblox has just renamed "Connections" back to "Friends" "Experiences" will also be called "Games" again 👀

A Roblox game killed somebody with epilepsy attack… Doom by Fate is a Roblox asymmetrical horror game (think Dead by Daylight-style: one killer vs. survivors) On or around April 3-4, 2026, they dropped a big update called "1x" that added a new killer (1x1x1x1) with heavy strobe/flashing light effects (green/black/white flashes). A player named Kit (who had photosensitive epilepsy) reportedly played the update, suffered a severe seizure from the flashing lights, was hospitalized, and died during emergency surgery less than two hours later. >The game didn't have a proper epilepsy warning, even though the community had complained about flashing lights in earlier showcase videos and an epileptic player had specifically warned the devs beforehand. >Devs allegedly added a basic "Flash Toggle" after the incident, but it didn't fully fix the strobing from the new content. >The devs' (and staff) responses in their Discord and elsewhere have been widely criticized as dismissive, victim-blaming, or straight-up insensitive. Examples from reports and leaks include: - Calling Kit a "random" and downplaying it because player count was low. - Suggesting people with epilepsy just shouldn't play video games. - Demanding "proof" of the epilepsy/hospitalization/death. - Locking channels and trying to shut down discussion. It's all still developing (no official statement from Kit's family yet that I've seen), but the outrage is real and spreading fast. The Google Doc that a lot of people are sharing lays out the timeline and screenshots if you want the full alleged details.
