So you may have already seen that I've made a review on this game. MAYBE. If you haven't..then don't worry you didn't miss out on anything. But if you have, then you probably remember that my old review was ♥♥♥♥, and was made from the mind of a young boy who could not spell to save his life. (Seriously, "I can't Blaim"? I mean come on) So I'm redoing this Review to the best of my ability.


Anyway, to get on with it..what can I really say about GMOD that hasn't already been stated likely numerous times at this rate, not to mention the Animations and Memes from it kind of just, speak for themselves?

Well I suppose I can start by saying..it's a Physics Sandbox that used to be a Mod for Half-life 2 that was eventually nominated by Valve to become it's own standalone game that, still requires a bunch of games to be mounted or even asset mods that add all of the stuff to even use some specific maps...CS:Source being the most prominent example of this. In fact I'll just say that this part is likely going to be the make or break thing for this game. If you don't wanna buy or get the content packs for whatever games you need the stuff for, then don't bother. But I assume most people on steam don't have an issue with either given how popular this game is still.

Anyway, as you may be not so surprised to learn...the thing that's the very life blood of this game, are the mods and the steam workshop and how many different mods exist for various different purposes, and while I can't possibly list every mod..I can give a few examples of what you can kind of expect if you're just going into this blind after reading my review (Somehow). For starters you have mods that add various weapons either from video games or even just original creations that aren't really based on anything, you have Model ports, Entire gamemodes, Maps that recreate specific games or fit for doing sandbox stuff, NPCs and Bosses, A ambient Music player, And..faaarrr too many crappy FNAF Saves because apparently kids these days don't know how to press F12 on their keyboard. (No shade at the Five nights at Freddy's Community..I'm just throwing it out there.)

So what do you do in GMOD? ...Well...look at what the Workshop has to offer, as well as the many default models and tools that load into your game by default, and well, make your own fun out of it. You can explore maps, pose ragdolls for ♥♥♥♥♥♥ screenshots (I'm guilty of this myself), Create rockets to blast yourself to the skybox, Spawn Mr. X and have him hunt you down in a Maze..the list goes on..and on, and on. There's no real set objectives here. It's everyman for himself here and honestly I like that. One day I could feel like making a scene with Ragdolls, and another day I could decide to see how long I can live against a horde of Zombies.

And that's just the tip of the Iceberg of what's possible with this game, and honestly I don't think I could even do this game enough justice by making a review like this...the best way to enjoy this game is just to see what insanity you can cook up by just screwing around with what you're given either from the workshop or just be default. And honestly, I don't think I'd have it any other way.
