I bought garry's mod on the 19th of October 2015. It was my first paid game ever on steam, heavily recommended by a friend of mine. I Instantly loved it, creating armed fortresses in sandbox, creating weaponised vehicles. Raiding with friends on dark roleplay servers and way more. I even uploaded my first ever youtube video on the game, titled the "I Blew Up" series, a clear copy of somebody else's videos.

The earliest server I remember playing on was Kaboom Gaming Sandbox, Shutdown estimated around early 2016. It was a sandbox based on an edited version of gm_sandbox. I remember how I lead a civil war on a server, fighting with M9K weapons against the mainlanders as we controlled the sea and skies. It was around this time, my friend, the one who recommended me this game, went offline. I haven't seen him since.

I remember my first ever Military Roleplay where I began as a tank driver. I remember my first ever star wars roleplay, playing as a 104th Wolfpack Trooper. I remember my first DarkRP, My first TTT, My first staff position. My first demotion heh.

Garry's mod in my experience, isn't a game. It's an engine, allowing creators of any kind to create anything they want. From Olmate Ubafest's art to FPtje's DarkRP. However, this game has been stretched thin of creators, players and the communities that once made the game so prevalent. The sandbox servers full of builders, armies and creative minds, now reduced to wiremod abuse and racial slurs. DarkRP staff members corrupted beyond the point of no return and milsim players demanding the absolute most devotion in order to have an inch of repetitive fun.

Garry's mod is the best game ever. However I cannot say that you should play it. It's time is over. Replaced by other trending games which will last less than half as long.

With that being said, get the game.
