Now that the dust has settled, can we all agree that Garry Newman is a bad game designer who just got very lucky with Gmod? The game succeeded only because of two things: the valve assets and the valve community. And it succeeded DESPITE Newman and his vision. S&box was a pure brainchild of his, and it sucks. It tried to be roblox but for adults, which is a stupid idea because adults don't want to play roblox.

My only contact with gmod was through half-life and tf2 stupid animations, i never thought people took this seriously.
If his gmod2 doesn't have valve assets, then of course he is fucked.
Although not much i guess, he might have millions on the bank already so he can just fuck off, become a landowner and live for hedonism. Good for him i guess.

There IS a niche for game creation platforms, but s&box did a particularly shit job of it

It was also marketed as easy access to Source 2 and its tools for modmakers, but people on the 'net are saying that this particular branch of Source 2 used in S&box is the most bare-bones one

Aside from hotloading, it's somehow worse than the stock Source 2 branch in every way. They took the engine and stripped it of part of its functionality for no reason.

I liked gmod because it allowed me to mount other Source games and fuck around their content using tools made by garry and community, even before the whole steamworkshop and whatever thingamajigs.
What did s&box offer? Sausage men? Some assets from Rust? Not even the ability to mount Dota 2 to fuck around? SNCA.
In the end it's a platform that tries to be 'blox because Garry Jewman saw his kids playin 'blox and it made him jealous. Nah, fuck off, I wanted a Source 2 gmod, not a Source 2 version of enshittified roblox.
