But apparently they sell this bullshit in Walgreens. I heard about this thing. But wasn’t it some YouTube craze or something? I mean what the hell is this? My kids laughed and would say this phase couple years ago, but didn’t think it was mainstream enough to warrant this.
People keep mentioning Valve, what do they own the rights to this shit?
Lots of the assets (most notably face models) are from Half-Life 2. The reason they’ve been used in this skibidi shit is because the original videos were made with either gmod or Source Film Maker, not sure, but in any case, in the Source engine.
And of course the easiest way to find models for this is to take them from Source games. If you just started playing with gmod, that’s probably what you’d be doing, building silly stuff with assets from your source games.
Damn that’s why I recognized that face. I have Gmod, had for years. The base game would work on my old laptop and the kids love to play it. Of course they crashed my laptop when they downloaded 200 mods, or tried to is more apt the word onto said computer. And I love Half Life though I only ever seen it through that YouTube show Gary’s Mind.
GMod spawned an entire YouTube subculture in the early 2000s. DasBoSchitt made those Idiot Box videos (which I fucking loved when I was a kid), and there were tons of others. In fact, I remember Machinima made a feature-length movie entirely within GMod, about the “Mingebags” taking over the entire game. I think the guy who helped create that Harvie Krumpet short film worked on it, too.
