This is literally a blank gamemode with a "Type your name" prompt.

Don't get excited.

Valve will not be allowing S&box to mount games such as HL2 or HL:A.

I hope a server browser is never added.

The game concept is far better without it.

Sounds almost* good. Gonna be honest, for the last 2-4 years I've felt like HL2-based RP settings (save for temporary, event-based format like Alplands) limits one's options, even if the lore is reshaped beyond recognition. Better to just make a
Bootleg Dystopian City
with its own worldbuilding than try to alter the vague mess that is Half-Life lore, and incur years of debate on whether every deviation from retail material - minor or critical - is beneficial or not.

*I say "almost" because I'm sure there'd still be some neat uses for that sorta content.

Nah man, once GMod is done so am I with HL2 RP.
will you release the nebulous gamemode to open source so people can continue it if they want?

Was talking in general, I'm fully aware current HL2RP will be your (and I assume most of headstaff's) last rodeo with HL2-related material.

I figured that this last map change is the last because I can't imagine us being let out of the shit prison city unless it's a whole different cast of characters which idk if anyone would wanna do because uhh idk

I wouldn't sell it for less than $20,000.

Because I don't want to sell it.
Would someone offering you $20k genuinely start a conversation though?

I feel like sandbox will be as lawless as gmod was in terms of assets

I’m sure Scott’s pissed over FNAF models but knows the hassle ain’t worth it, or game companies like BSG know people using tarkov pmc models in dark rp is small fish fry etc

pretty sure valve will eat shit even if they don’t allow hla or hl2 model porting it’s gonna happen regardless

same with every port to Gmod

I was under the impression characters in FNAF are mainly pre-rendered and don't have any actual 3D models in the game files, so people make their own models based off the renders?

they became models in later ones
