S&box is pretty good for a game that is yet to release and probably won't until mid 2023 or later. Just hope people know that S&box is not a game that is finished and things can change in the process of it's development, and that Garry's Mod is basically a finished game.

I'd say late 2023 or early 2024, s&box needs a lot of polishing and that could take a good bit. Performance is horrible and considering how well optimized default Source 2 is it's slightly worrying, then again Garry has never been good with optimization so I'm not sure why I'm surprised.

S&box needs it's own source of origin and charm and then it'll be on it's way.

[@FightingTable]

Is it me, but does Source look a little better?

[@raiogelato6921]

Well S&box has no half life game to get its assets from, so it uses placeholders.

[@rogerphone481]

well yeah, of course it does. gmod has been getting updates for over a decade now and s&box is still in development

[@shoolepak]

Both look great, but obviously neither of them even compare to the far superior chad of a game, JBmod.

[@rarejunkie]

S&Box looks so ugly honestly compared to Gmod. Gmod has such a unique and nice look to it

[@waffl_798]

I like to imagine that Garry's Mod is the source playground, and S&Box is the source 2 playground.

[@SnrubSource]

Oof, S&box looks horrible assets-wise, it's like a low quality Unity asset flip. Should've paid 30% and included Valve assets and just made a proper gmod sequel instead of a roblox clone

[@CloudyChair]

As a 6 year roblox player I can tell you s&box looks NOTHING like roblox Also if you had taken the time to do the littlest research you would've noticed that almost every asset is a placeholder BECAUSE ITS NOT IN ALPHA DTAGE YET

I can't even imagine what a beast could appear if we fuse Gmod with S&Box

[@ImAPersonHehehehaw]

What made gmod special was the creepiness, janky physics, and half life stuff, s&box probably has none of those.

Gmod is 100% better s&box is fucking horrible

you can't make judgements on it, it's still in development. wait until it's actually publicly avaliable pls

What's the point of downplaying one game for the sake of another? They are both cool, considering that the second is still under development. I will never understand comments like this. (I used a translator, I apologize for inaccuracies)

[@randomchannel6930]

I don't doubt that s&box will be great, but it'll be hard to make a legacy like gmod has.

[@SoupyMittens]

S&Box doesn't really look unique, it looks like a generic unreal engine 5 game to me. Something I like about Gmod is the crappy lighting giving it a unique feel, along with the old HL2 textures and low poly count.

[@Pokemonmaster212]

Personally, if I'm able to load my Half-Life assets into the game and make myself not look like a hot-dog fetus, then I'm all for it.

Basically, Gmod, if it was made in source 2.

Garrys mod devs new game on the source 2 engine.

[@tex3211]

I wish they just had GMOD implemented into source2 instead of a whole new game. They have the rights to use assets after all
