As a rising GMod animator, and as a person who just got 1k hours, I can finally write a decent review.

Garry's Mod is an exellent game overall in the full sense of the word:
- You can build stuff from props with the many tools GMod has by default.
- You can make animations with the right addons.
- There's everything in the workshop as an addon, anything you want will be in the GMod Workshop, best of all, addons are always just a few Megabytes heavy.
- You can play GMod as a FPS if you so wish.
- You can just use GMod to mock around casually if you so wish.

Basically, GMod has a mode for anyone and everyone, a playstyle for everyone who, either, skilled or unskilled, can enjoy, and considering I'm awful at videogames in general, I enjoy GMod so much.

BUT here come the cons:
- The multiplayer game community or the GMod fanbase in general is composed of an AWFUL lot of 5 year old sqeuakers, who are disrespectful, arrogant and rude, who fight others, but when they're beaten up, cry and get off the game.
- When gunfights are unleashed into a server, the skill gap is so huge that, when some will have no problem winning over and over, some like me, have no chance against anyone there, and will probably get bullied in the server.
- The game crashes a lot, altough that's one of the comedy points of the game itself, but if viewed non-ironically, is trully a problem.

With this said, I trully recommend GMod, a game for everyone, who everyone will find engaging and fun.
