Gmod DarkRP proves that breaking the rules can be as fun as "following" them.

Saying that Creative 2.0 will kill Garry's Mod is like saying that Mario Kart will kill Gran Turismo.

I don't miss garry's mod, because it never left me.

this reminds me of coming home as a kid and watching vanossgaming and mister gibbs. those days were a work of art.

Now that we know that Garry’s Mod exist, we need to know WHO this supposed Garry is Edit: Please, for the love of god, this is a joke. I have been informed of Garry Newman, stop telling it

I don’t think Gmod, will ever die off. Because of the constant content of the workshop mods. But Darkrp isn’t the same anymore years ago, all of the servers are strict nowadays can’t have fun.

that elevator chase down had me wheezing and crying at the same time LMFAOO

Yogi has some god tier acting skills, truly one of a kind

I miss when Garry's Mod wasn't just now known for Roblox Scawy Meme PNGs that kids love for some reason

There no need for the assassin chase bit to have me on the edge of my seat like that. His ankles were dust at this point

GMOD takes me back to the Golden era of gaming. I miss playing this in 2007. Learning the wire mod, building contraptions to drag into rp servers and cause havoc, and watching movies fully captured in GMOD on Machinima were the best days ever. If you haven't seen War Of The Servers, it's worth falling into a nostalgia hole to watch.

i dont know if anyone remembers the elevator gamemode but that was so awesome and chill, wish someone made another version of it :c

I have over 14000 hours total on Gmod and I can say, it is one of the games of all time, Dark Rp still bussin

Garrys mod is an all time favourite and its place in the universe will be treasured

No joke, you introduced me to darkRP and Garry's mod in general back in 2017. And now 3000 hours later I can say I enjoyed it very much. So... yeah, thanks, Bubba 😁

Growing up, Vanoss, Venturiantale, uberhaxornova, and the god of dark rp, Zuthar13. I loved every second of garrys mod growing up and I wish I was there during the peak

I honestly hope Garry's Mod will never die, i just like the old source 2000s ambience in maps and the look. It's relaxing and nostalgic.

i'm genuinely glad that garry's mod is still around. i've been playing it literally since i was like 9-10 with 8-10k+ hours and i grew up with it. nowadays i don't play as much and when i do it's because i've found a community to stick around with for a while but after that phase is over i usually back off from Garry's Mod again for months up to whole years till i come back. it's easy to say that it's the most memorable game ever for me.

1200 hours and counting. This game will never die for me. I just have on and off months of gmod.

Glad to see you got your first sponsor! The channel is doing amazing

The gaming landscape is truly changing for the worse in my personal view The human touch seems to disappear or be gone in the new games out there, even in these sandbox modes I've been whining and crying for a while about this, and I am scared with what kids grow up in this landscape made to scam them out of their allowance at hyper efficiency whilst giving a sub par video game experience. Whilst we had straight up milestones to be played for years since the 90s but now seem to get forgotten by the newest generation. I am reflecting from what I observe from the youngest family members in my family though, so I don't speak for all of course. But the best we have now game wise seems worse than some of our worst. I dunno, I am also a nostalgic little asshole in the end and just woke up so I am speaking all retarded too. I am just jaded over the modern internet in general because I miss that wild west of old

Garry's Mod is irreplaceable. No other game screams Gmod so loud, other than the very game itself. The very stable play count over the years is a testament thereto. There simply is no other game that can do what this game can.

I currently have 1500 hours in GMod, a vast majority of that was single player, I never had friends and my brother was the only other person I knew who played it. I'm too insecure to play the countless online modes and when I did I always felt...left out. So I created my own stories, the NPC's became my friends and the maps my world. You know Toy Story? It was like that. Even though I can't relate to the social aspects of Garry's Mod, I do have plenty of fond memories of it.

MOST PERFECTEST TIMING AT 0:35 MY TF2 FINALLY OPENED AND I HAD A NOTIF AND AS SOON AS YOU SAID "however" THE NOTIF SOUND PLAYED XD

I can’t believe Garry’s Mod was found dead in a ditch with 50 stab wound and a dismembered arm I miss Garry “Entertainment” Mod so much…

Detective Guzzler is definitely one of the best scallops of all time

I have a feeling deep down inside that sandbox will never be able to live up to gmods legacy.

I was 10 years old when Gmod 0.7 was released. I wish the video talked more about the building side of things, cause it's a whole other rabbit-hole. Back in the day my favorite thing was "wood wars", where players would cobble together wooden boxes, pallets and planks into something that'd function vaguely like a combat vehicle - using prop spawners and ent_fire commands to ignite and launch explosive propane cannisters from barrels made of wood planks, and attempting to blast one another to bits. Beyond that you had people making big space cruisers from combine razor trains and barricade props; race cars made from oil barrels and bath-tubs, you name it - someone had even made a functioning, wooden Vulture from Mechwarrior using a copious amount of hydraulic and elastic constraints. As the game and its addons came further along, with things like Wiremod/E2, Fin tool, Gcombat then its successor ACF, this side of Gmod became simultaneously more complex, and less accessible. At this point you can make practically anything so long as you have the patience and willingness to learn, with fully-simulated terminal ballistics, complex engine and gear systems, proper steering and suspension, swashplates for helicopters etc. It was really special to me and it's kinda sad to see it all sidelined in the public consciousness in favor of things like DarkRP and TTT.

This was a fantastic video, as someone who has had been apart of gmod since 2009 it's been an amazing thing to play and develop in. While yes this game will eventually die, I think that the dedicated players will still stick to it even when S&Box comes out mainly for that old source feeling and the hl2 base assets. I do plan on buying S&Box when it releases (in 2030 or some shit), and as someone who like developing things I am excited to learn something else besides lua and be able to use a lot more features in the new source 2 engine.

Its insane to think that Kelski has only 62k subs, with bombs that he drops with his entertaining videos

6:57 “JESSE, JESSE DO NOT PRESS E ON THAT EXPLOSIVE, JESSE!”

Fortnite: *tries to be digital version of playing with toys* Gmod: *basically is that*

1 of the best things with Gmod is everyone is on the mic laughing with each other. Mite have to download it again later 😁

Surfshark vpn saved me from my parents realizing I've been watching femboy "videos" . Thank you kelski!!!

The cop chasing jesus to spongebob music was actual comedy gold

There was a phrase I had for "impostor" games that wasn't "impostor" but after hearing you call them that, I'm now physically incapable of thinking of the thing I used to call them. Like, I know I *did* call them something else but it's been wholly replaced by "impostor" and I'm so mad at you for doing this to me.

7:55 the saddest story in Kelski History so far 9:09 ITS BACK! 16:42 was so waiting for this ngl i have been playing the half life series recently, the thing is, I played Garry's Mod years before ever starting with Half Life, so there are some voice lines I can't take serious because they remind me of Murder or DarkRP voice lines.😂

Trouble In Terroist Town will always be more fun than Among Us

Great video, I’ve been thinking about getting it for the longest time since I love sandbox games, but this would by far be THE most sandbox game I’ve played lol. Seriously though you managed to hit my nostalgia feels for GMod and I haven’t ever booted it. Super enjoyed this video 🤍

this vid is so fire, brought me back to when i'd fuck around on this game for SO long. the amount of time i spent just fuckin around on darkrp servers is insane plus that sponsor transition was one of the smoothest i ever seen

I've tried to organize my friend group to play gmod once last year and though it was fun, it was also a nightmare to put together

what keeps the game alive is the mods so pretty much I think garrys mod will NEVER die

Im french but It's a pleasure to see RU-vidrs talking about this game which is gradually dying because the server is often too empty.

Dark RP is not the foundation of GTA RP, SAMP and a somewhat buggy incomplete vice city multiplayer existed. SA:MP Roleplay servers are genuinely GOATed, so hardcore and fun to play back in the day.

Ah my childhood favorite I got 4k hours on it and I still don't know how to feel about it But thanks for covering it, I remembered some legendary moments

Garry's mod was 100% more fun when people were actually playing the game and not just following a rule guideline. Also the pay to win stuff is getting out of hand.

i feel like gmod will actually never die tbh well fully at least, theres those of us that will still play it a lot, while it probably wont see any more upticks like its hay day was, its a possibility that gmod will see some modernizing since the game still recieves updates there could be a boom in its popularity again, hell dafuqboom uses source film maker which still has a massive userbase

That was one of the best transition to a VPN ad i love it

i honestly kinda think fornite creative 2.0 won't really reach that much appeal? and it especially won't win against roblox lol. biggest problem with fortnite creative is that you literally can't make copyrighted stuff (fnaf for example) and upload it. while in roblox you can and even still make money from it. fortnite loses both battles, against gmod and against roblox. against gmod it just can't compete of how many addons and such already exist, and you can really create what you want from other people, while in fortnite you are still confined to the singular place, no mix and matching afaik. and it's not even good for making real games, because why not just make an actual game with unreal engine? honestly i kinda thing fortnite creative 2.0 will fall flat.

Garry's Mod is still a great game to play with friends.

i spent a pretty decent chunk of my early teen years just playing Sandbox Gmod, and the snow sled map. was so fun

4:20 (nice) this is probably the most accurate explanation about the game i've ever heard

What's the music that plays at 7:47 ? Edit - Nevermind I remembered, it's fathomless tomb from Deep Rock Galactic

I will be playing Garry's mod till I'm in my grave. And even then, I will ask for terrible (or good) Wi-Fi and someone to pay electric bills in my will so I can play Garry's mod even when I'm dead.

S&Box actually looks pretty good IMO, there's a ton of good features for developers to take advantage of that make it so much more open than GMod. That being said, I don't think there will be anything quite like the good old days of hopping into a solo gmod server with a thousand mods and just going ham for hours, or raiding a random TTT server with all of your friends and colluding together on how to always win as traitor, or making a crime syndicate on DarkRP

as someone who owns gmod but barely plays it, this is an absolute win

Maaaan I absolutely LOVED watching garrys mod, from people like vanossgaming, and still do.

I personally think Gmod still has a ton of potential but people don't want to bother making things. Like for instance, there could be a deathmatch game mode that's pretty much a Smash Bros but for FPS characters, allowing server owners to make player spawns on spots they choose, and they would be able to make loadouts (that is tied to a player model) for players to choose from. So if a player wants to spawn with the Doom loadout, then they will have the same HUD, abilities and weapons as Doom 2016/Eternal. So that means the player will look like the Doom Slayer and have mechanics like dashing, fire and ice canons, the chainsaw, weapons attachments and so on. (There is already an addon that made all of Doom Eternal's mechanics). If they choose the Halo loadout then they change appearance to that of Master Chief and make him very tanky with his shield mechanic, same HUD, movement and weapons. Same thing if they choose Gordon Freeman who will spawn with the SMG, Shotgun, and be able to sprint, have energy for his suit and so on (This one should be the easiest to implement in Gmod for obvious reasons). Admins should also be able to place power weapons for whatever players that grabs it, will have a powerful gun from their respective game series. So if a Doom player grabs that pick-up, they get a BFG 5000. If HL1 Gordon Freeman grabs it, he gets the Gluon Gun or a Tau Cannon. If HL2 Gordon grabs it, he gets a rocket launcher or a super charged gravity gun. This and so many more FPS characters like Duke Nukem and Postal Guy could be added to the roster. The hardest thing would be the balance but scaling the damage can sort everything out. I'm sure people would love it. Overall people aren't making any genuinely interesting game modes. It's always been messing around in DarkRP or Sandbox which is just boring to me after a couple of hours.

Gmod was my first PC game. I spent way too many hours on it just messing with different maps and bots. I still come back to it to chill every now and then.

there are also the countless modes imported from cs like surf, climb, zombie panic, etc

another banger keep up the great work

i have so many memories watching venturiantale play this game with his siblings

I have over 2,000+ hours each in Project Zomboid and Garry's Mod, both of which are 95% heavily fine tuned singleplayer sandbox heavens with years of tweaking. Project Zomboid I have set as an immersive story over multiple survivor's stories, their' struggles and inevitable deaths. On the other hand my Garry's Mod sandbox is a first person/third person horde/all out hl2 factional war between Combine, Zombies/Aliens, ???, and rebels; Of which I may choose my side and hell be a damn combine elite. It's beautiful, so much so that I very well may shed tears of joy and equal sorrow when Garry's Mod 2 releases, as it's predecessor will hand off the reigns to a new age. P.S.-Love the vid, you've got a new subscriber! Also yes I am biased in my love for Gmod and disdained distrust of most triple A studios after all of the half finished dumpster fires that have been released in the last decade or more.

That was the smoothest Segway into a sponsor I've ever seen

*By the way, I would like to say that I invite you to pay homage to the great masters and players for those who have played Garry's mod since 2004 and those who cannot see it today.*

S&ndbox isn’t garrysmod 2, it’s a game creator in which you can create garrys mod in, do a bit of research into it, it’s actually crazy how accessible it is to the average joe compared to any other engines like unreal/unity.

I mostly played on star wars RP but garrys mod is so fun just in general tho, and I met so many funny people and it was always entertaining.

gmod is the goat

W Kelski video, and W AD Skit w/ Yogi. Also, Happy 40k!!!

That little resurgence a few years ago was nice.

Roblox is just gmod but for small children

then.... idk.... play it?

That shift being a recession

I used to run a couple roleplay servers back in like 2011/2012 and played Dark RP regularly for maybe a total of a few years but in memory it all feels like I played for a decade. The friendships made and the moments I think about will always stick with me. I think the GTA RP thing was the closest gaming got to replicating the vibes, but the issue with online gaming right now is that everything is based on matchmaking, so it's hard to recapture this magic since most of us just stay in a discord with the people we already know. Dark RP on random servers was brilliant because you'd frequent the same servers and the same people and form bonds. I think s&box will replace the game pretty effectively considering how large the gmod playerbase still is and how fast word-of-mouth will spread to ditch gmod for s&box (on top of all the 20-somethings like us that will use s&box as the opportunity to come back).

S&Box community devs are already innovating like they did with Garry's mod, there are some interesting and completely unique games already. With help from Facepunch, I believe it could be one of the biggest games to ever exist. Imagine Roblox, less limitations, more features and no shady, money hungry, publicly traded company with growth expectations that entice them to consume the hard work of developers for unfair value. We all know and love Facepunch and I'm excited for them to bring us another banger of a game!

I can happily state that overall, i have spent around 10,000 hours in Garry’s mod. Sadly it has almost entirely been in different TTT servers with random drops where I’d invest time collecting up and trading until i was in the top 1% of players. It was an amazing time

back in our day we didn't have microtransactions, we had GARYS MOD baby, pure unadulterated rage and fun at the same time. only in garysmod could you destroy in seconds what your friend took HOURS and HOURS to built in the Garysmod server. they would be mad for a while, might even kick you from the teamspeak server, but then after a while it smoothed out and you continue to have fun. We are officially old ...

18:06 erm, he's right behind me isn't he?? Banger video Kelski !! Great job as always man

I spent the summer between middle and high school being an admin an a Garry's Mod DarkRP server, I miss those days.

Great video. I miss some of the smaller Fretta minigame modes that are long dead like Build to the top, Flood the room, Trembling Tiles and last but my fav Garryware.

I remember being like 7 and asking my dad to get me Garry's mod, I never knew what Steam or anything computer related was and neither did my dad, all I did was watch people play it and I wanted to do that. One day my dad got home and managed to get it set up on some crappy PC and I still haven't stopped playing that to this day. Garry's Mod literally introduced me to playing on a computer and I loved it.

Crazy thing about Garry's Mod? It's a prototype to many, MANY good games. Take SCP:SL for example - something like that has first appeared on Garry's Mod as a gametype, named Breach... and it was flawless...

I remember the venturian tales days and learning about all these weird addons and maps from them, honestly playing gmod in 2013 will never be topped

In Murder, as a bystander you can collect glowing props around the map to get a gun so there's an extra layer to it.

it was over in 2012 when the last 3 gamemodes left were prop hunt, darkrp and ttt only og players remember fretta

Garrys mod will be my forever favorite game. with over 5k+ hrs sucked into this game after buying it in 2010 Most of those hours I spent on when I was 10-15 years old. I will always love classics like prop hunt, zombie survival the stalker (Garrys mods version of the hidden) Guess who, sandbox, hide and seek and so on.

Nah I say it would stick around for an exremely long time. Everyone loves it and gets nostalgic for it. It's everywhere on the internet, people will play it, and the generations to come after us will enjoy it the same as we did, and we who are the OG's of the era of this game will be dead in the future. People will remember us for introducing the newer generations to this game, and will be remembered as those OG's the era of the early 2000s. Garry's Mod is gonna be a playable history book in the future.

I'm just gonna go ahead and add in my gmod gamemodes I remember playing (dead or not). Feel free to add any: -DarkRP -MethRP -Deathrun -Jailbreak -Zombie Escape -1942RP -SCP RP -TTT -Tag -Fat Kid -Murder -Stop it Slender -Slope -Flood -Sled Build -School Shooter Simulator (Wild) -Military RP -Halo RP -Elevator Source -Storm Chasers -Suicide Barrels -Some football game This game will forever hold a special place in my heart and childhood.

I like how the cop was just staring straight into the window

The fact that garry's is a old game made on a older engine and have everything from realistic mods to Mario running away from nextbots and s&box is a new game made on a the newest engine and that means that they will have everything what I mean like a new game released it will be on s&box with all its details and graphics and it will be playable for the public for free will be insane

i miss that too... once upon times i was playing private version garry's mod ( 13 ) in Med-2010's and Late-2010's

I started playing Gmod a REAL long time ago (2006) and honestly most if not all of the greatest/funniest gaming memories of my life happened on gmod. I miss playing GmSurvival, Space Build, DarkRp (before it was turned into paid script fest), Gm Tower, the list goes on... No game has even ever come close to fun. Joining a new Gmod server back in the day was like pulling a slot machine, you either found straight trash or a god tier server that would keep you playing for weeks/months. Hopefully S&Box can maintain the greatness that is/was Gmod at it's prime...

In my opinion, I feel the thing that will keep gmod alive aside from the mods and community in general would be how low end a pc you can run it on. It is opinionated of course, I’ve seen a lot of people say how “hard” it can be to run. And since I play SP only, can’t say how bad servers really are. However, I’ve gotten it running very smoothly on my laptop with (at this current moment) about 350 mods give or take. However others may take this, it is an old game. It can run for a potato if you make it, it can be “realistic as hell” if you make it. My point being, I think other sandbox games trying to succeed what gmod has done would be kind of difficult with a “modern gaming” mindset. Over the past few years, I’ve seen quite a number of games that kind of die due to either being graphic hogs, cpu/gpa intensive, or just flat out having way too much storage space just to play the vanilla game. May be late to the party, but I’m curious if anyone else feels the same or disagrees?

1:04 erm... actually, Prop Hunt was initially a CounterStrike Source gamemode called Hide and Seek and the idea of fighting agains props comes from the 1998 Quake mod CrateDM. So you're wrong.

It’ll only die in the sense that the majority of people will migrate to the newer version when its fleshed out but there will always be a diehard hold out group of people who still play Garry’s mod until the end of human existence

ik you already mentioned it, but this is why we are getting S&Box

Man, I used to have so much fun messing around in Garry's Mod. Now each time I load into a map, the only thing I can think of is to pose, or just completely forget the game is running while watching RU-vid. I miss the old days.

man, Garry's Mod is a game I didn't really care about unlike the other games you've uploaded. this time you made me more aware of this game. thank you kelski for another amazing video keep it up!

Playing Trouble in Terrorist Town is some of my fondest gaming memories. We had a massive server full of regulars and it felt like a family. Those were the days.
