#sbox — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #sbox, aggregated by home.social.

  1. there's a 4chan thread about s&box on /v/ and it's resulted in a feedback loop of one of the devs (laylad) claiming that 4chan has gone woke on the official discord server, all while 4channers accuse the game of having sold out to "troons" (derogatory term for trans women)

    #sbox #4chan #gaming #transphobia

  2. s&box's design feels so *cynical* compared to gmod. gamemodes are locked down so you can't freely mix and match addons & gamemodes. instead of goofy character models you have sausage people with FOMO cosmetics. AI slop is literally fucking everywhere. games rely on grinding to inflate playtime so devs get paid more

    and even besides that the developers are openly bigoted & praise ICE in the official discord. s&box is a miserable fucking game made by miserable fucking people

  3. RE: mastodon.ml/@vint/116492719553

    I get an impression that #Steam doesn't even want you to pay for s&box. Their desktop app produces no relevant result when I search the game by name or ID (search is unfiltered). They don't allow pasting URL in the address bar either. Web version logs out constantly and "Open in desktop app" button does nothing even with client open.

    By the way, release of s&box is a trash fire according to the reviews.

  4. who among us would not pay 20$ to experience the joys of whatever the fuck this is?

    (and yes, these are real games in s&box)

  5. When you're an AI true believer but everybody is clowning on your game for being an AI slop infested shithole so you have to try and save face

  6. @thingsiplay I don't want #sbox to fail, I've been looking forward to it and #Source2 for a very long time.

    ...But not at the larger cost of spawning an unmoderated platform where hate and abuse can fester.

    #garrynewman seems to be of the mind that he can do no wrong, when in fact he is taking the company in a new direction. With that comes new responsibility which he and his staff refuse to manage or plan for, despite many users giving the same feedback: "We need moderation"

  7. CW: Facepunch, Pol, nsfw text, toxicity

    It is of note that Garry and a few other staff were banned from that second forum, "Knockout", after Garry replied to the above post:

    "To troll the people taking screenshots and posting them here"

    Thread: knockout.chat/thread/55052/22

    This is only the tip of the iceberg of what happens behind the scenes over at #Facepunch

    Please help spread the word before #sbox launches at the end of the month! This is going to be a dumpster fire and nobody is reporting on it.

  8. CW: Pol, nsfw text, toxicity

    I spent a few days collecting evidence from the #Facepunch #sbox #discord and forum. So far I have sent this evidence (in email) to #yongyea #bellularnews and #Valve

    I could use more video game news journalists to forward this info to! This is high tier right-wing toxicity going on in Facepunch leadership and the word needs to be spread!

    The devs are also pro #AI and delete their own messages.

  9. The sequel to Garry's Mod releases this month, and Valve will let you publish your creations as standalone Steam games, like dafty Finn sim My Summer Cottage

    The sequel to legendary game creation sandbox Garry’s Mod launches in April, and Facepunch have struck a deal with Valve to let you publish creations on Steam.

  10. #Linux or no, it will not be worth the #MentalHealth cost to navigate a #toxic community to invest my skills.

    I can only hope that #Valve is paying close attention and can correct the arrogance that's happening inside #Facepunch - from what I've seen and heard from others there's a lot of it.

    I've been waiting for years, and I'm just extremely disappointed - including because Garry used to be someone I idolized. 😔

  11. AND I was told many conflicting information from staff about the #Sbox toolkit being ported to #Linux

    There is more evidence that it will remain Windows only forever. Staff seem to have a huge toxic bias against linux users (myself included) for some reason.

    Overall it just seems like there's no cohesive management #Facepunch is doing, which is required if they want a healthy platform.

    This is not *just* another Garry's Mod, and they're treating it like it is from a community aspect #gamedev

  12. To any #developers excited by the upcoming #SBox games platform by #Facepunch

    What I have seen and interacted with the past few days, community conduct wise, is extremely concerning to me as a #gamedev professional.

    There seems to be no community management, and it's like they said "lets give the community of DarkRP a game engine toolkit"

    Bullying is enabled from the top, and a few times I saw it from FP staff.

    I have no clue how they will attract (or train) professionals. #Toxic #Source2

  13. Ich dachte mir doch, dass ich mir doch mal #s&box ankucke. Eine Frage: WTF?
  14. the s&box source will build for Linux without issue but will not run due to the windows blobs it depends on. nonetheless the existence of this executable should frighten you

  15. Как разработчик попытался в геймдев

    У меня за плечами несколько лет работы в IT, но в сферах, связанных с геймдевом, я никогда не работал. Но это не помешало мне поучаствовать в Tech Jam от Facepunch для ещё не вышедшей s&box. О том, как это было (и обо всех провалах в процессе), я и решил написать.
