Difference between Instance.new RbxUtility.Create?
I am trying to find the difference between Instance.new and The rbxutility create function. The only thing I can think of is that the create function is a table and Instance creates just a represenitive object that is usually made a variable any comment?

There really isn't much difference between the two. I believe that the .Create is just used for faster and more efficient instance property editing and for creating events pertaining to the instance.
-- .Create
local Create = assert(LoadLibrary("RbxUtility")).Create
local Part = Create "Part" {
Parent = Workspace;
Name = "Something";
Anchored = true;
[Create.E "Touched"] = function()
print("Touched")
end
}
-- Instance.new
local part = Instance.new("Part", game.Workspace)
part.Anchored = true
part.Name = "Something"
part.Touched:connect(function()
print("touched")
end)

The difference is this:
Instance.new("Part") -- Fires a preloaded function that BASICALLY does the same thing as
local newPart = LoadLibrary("RbxUtility").Create("Part")({
Parent = workspace;
Name = "Hi!"
})
-- The only difference is RBXUTILITY gives you a little more options.
