Sort of. Roblox resembles a game collection. Fortnite is increasingly similar.

Roblox is a lot more than just a game collection. The social aspect is a massive part of what made (keeps?) Roblox popular.

Steam has a ton of social features too, and that helps keep it popular. Is it a "virtual world"? I don't think anyone would define it that way.

The primary thing you do in Roblox is pick a game you want to play, which is largely isolated from the other games. Plenty of people will never touch the social features.
