Why still play?


Recommended Posts

I recently achieved the status of 10 years on Steam and the only reason I got Steam was for Garry’s Mod. That means I have been playing this game for ten whole years! That’s older than some of the players on Aether specifically @luxeray

 

My question is why do you still play this game? For me I have been playing DarkRP for a while now and have been on Aether since my freshman year of college and now I am a senior. I want everyone to share!

 

I’ll start! One of the biggest reasons I play Aether and just GMOD in general is because of the building. I LOVE building games like Minecraft for example. I love creating and making something from scratch. It always draws me in and the community helps as well. I have made so many friends and ops on Aether. I love the fact that I can hop on paste a McDonalds dupe and everyone just goes nuts. 
 

What about you?

Yup, I got gmod around 2006 illegally on my dads old work laptop and played it like that for years until I wanted the actual game and had my dad go to gamestop to get Garrys Mod (bruh..) and later found out I needed to get a steam account.

I play gmod because my friends play it and farming fake money for funny boxes is a good time waster.

Source games were my first introduction to the "adult" world of gaming almost 15 years ago. First time I played Garry's Mod was in a conputer bar/LAN gaming center (the place where you rent a workstation to play games on it). Then I got Steam, CS:S, and GMod. Source & GM have influenced so much of my gaming existence that I've got to flatly say Source games are the best, and have a special place in my heart, GMod especially.

GMod is the pinnacle Source game. That's why I still play it. Too good to put down and if you're bored there's always some niche server with crazy mechanics that you can play.

But as for why I keep coming back to Aether? It's just a nice community. Funny toys w crates and a good crowd.

Garry's Mod is super nostalgic for me. When I got my first computer, Garry's Mod was the first game I downloaded and played. My favourite things to do were RP as a gun dealer in DarkRP or play JailBreak (RIP). Garry's Mod today still takes me back to those times. Something about it just feels right.

Honestly just the goofy, stupid, weird, and meaningful conversations and interactions I see on the daily is the reason why I still play GMOD as a whole. I love hopping on a DarkRP server and just shooting the shit with people, or literally shooting people in mutual combat.
