i mean i get it. they've set it up so that people can get money for the things they develop within the game, which makes it a viable platform for modders to survive on. it's basically paid mods again, but more direct.

The future fucking sucks. Id been looking forward to this game for years since I loved Gmod so much growing up.

Every mod id ever played has been free. Them transitioning away from this model means there is no reason to ever get S&box for myself, id rather just enjoy the millions of free mods in Gmod.

meh, i'm ambivalent. s&box will probably be a lot more flexible than gmod due to deeper access and a higher performance language. that will most likely lead to some very high quality mods.

besides, i was active on the fp forums between 2006 and 2012ish, some people just refused to take money. we asked them for donation links and they said no.
