If Garry was so desperate to monetize his game why didn't he just add stupid fucking crates and stuff instead of making these hideous things in hopes people would want to customize them with microtransactions?

He is right in the sense that people won't create stuff for free anymore in this day and age. Why would you even, when you work on your own game and release it? It doesn't matter that you won't make bank with it, it's the sole chance that acts as a driving force.
Sausage freaks is still a weird design choice fo be honest. I would have chosen other characters.
I'll grab the game when I'm home and start creating modes for coop soon.

the models are so aggresively ugly that they are damaging the game... i have to give garry credit for that, it really takes talent and determination to make something so bad and not stopping mid way, even as everyone openly hates it

>>738118623
Apparently not, they replaced Hammer with their own shitty scene creator which numerous reviewers bitch about as being much worse. I don't know why Garry keeps throwing out Valve's well-tested components to replace it with worse and less mature ones.

Source 2's entities system? Replaced with components. The baked lighting that creates beautiful lighting with low performance? Completely gutted. The new audio system allowing for amazing layered soundscaped via visual graphs? Also gutted for a much worse and simpler system. Rubikon? They had to patch in proper ragdoll reactions to water and explosions after launch. The network system with included prediction and lag comp? 2complex4garry, it's on devs to stop cheaters now. It's a real Ship of Theseus situation, S&box might've run on Source 2 once but you can't really call it that anymore.

did you not see how shit the games run even being heavily gutted? why does it matter if shit games have good lighting or sound? any decent dev will just use unity, shitbox is for the biggest retards who are too retarded to download unity only bc it's not on steam.
>>
>>738119720
Supposedly they're adding Animgraph 2 so I guess it's still Source 2 in a way?

I've heard the stories but I'm pretty sure Facepunch replacing almost all of Source'2's inner workings with their own solutions is why it runs like ass in the first place.

>any decent dev will just use unity
Yeah most likely, there's no real benefit to using S&box at this point. If they actually stuck with Source 2 you'd have a very performant modern engine that can still create pretty good modern visuals with a very mature and well-tested toolset. Alyx is genuinely an impressive showcase for the engine, it looks pretty damn good for a game that only asks for an i5-7500, 12GB RAM and a GTX 1060. Performance in 3D is something that engines like Unreal Engine, Unity and Godot struggle with to various degrees and Unity's toolset is haphazard as devs keep implementing new shit to replace old shit with. Garry in his infinite wisdom decided to gut all the things about Source 2 that made people want to develop games in it though. What a fucking waste.
>>
I really like Roblox-like format made for players to try out game after game as they scroll through list of small games. And given standalone game export option with no strings attached, S&box sounds like ideal platform to prototype game ideas. Too bad the platform should actually have players and be alive for it work lmao.
But I just like the idea of a free Source 2 SDK too much.
Unity lost all good will.
UE is too bloated and tailored for cinematic AAA slopa.
Godot has that trademark FOSS non-polish.
I know s&box isn't really Source 2, but it's the closest thing we will probably ever get. They follow and implement important features from Valve's Source 2 like animgraph 2 so in the future it'll be close enough I hope.
>>
>>738120203
>Godot has that trademark FOSS non-polish
yeah gotta love that FOSS mentality. "open source is great because everyone can contribute, except if you're not in the clique with us and then we'll just throw out your work even if it improves everything about the engine. if juan doesn't think performance is a big deal then it isn't, so stop complaining already!!"

I would if he wasn't so hostile to wiremod people who just want to make it into a cool sandbox to do cool things in like in Gmod.
But Garry wants casual, Roblox like audience that will buy retarded cosmetics and pay for other shit because that's what's profitable.
>>
I hate how the community for this game just brainlessly repeats the same marketing campaign slogans over and over again like a bunch of retards. I'm starting to believe this is more like a cult thing and has nothing to do with gaming or game development.

not really any community, more like a dozen discord troons who worship garry because he flew them out to the facepunch office to exchange hrt

>I'm starting to believe this is more like a cult thing and has nothing to do with gaming or game development.
Or it's just bunch of people trying to make money of kids.
I was pretty shocked when this game was getting traction but it seemed majority of people weren't there to build some interesting stuff or play around with source 2 features, but rather to monetize their content. This gave me flashbacks of decline of Gmod modding community when gmodstore opened. Suddenly people weren't just making cool stuff for sake of it, now they were doing things for the purpose of selling it to someone else.

>>738123929
the sbox discord troons have far more in mind than money
