NECK NEWS FLASH: WHAT IS GOING ON WITH NECKS?
- s&box is the spiritual sequel to Garry's Mod from creator Garry Newman and Facepunch Studios
- Characters in s&box didn't have necks
- Now they have necks
- If you liked that they didn't have necks, you can adjust their necks so they don't have necks again
- If you didn't like that they didn't have necks, maybe now you'll like them?
Why this big change from no necks to necks? For more, let's hear it straight from Mr. Newman:
Garry NewmanGarry Newman (pictured above, with a neck) is the creator of Garry's mod and founder of s&box developer Facepunch Studios.
"I've updated the citizen. They now have a default non frowny face and they can have a neck."
"We have sliders to alter other aspects of the body like their chest, waist, neck, and nose size. You can choose their eye colour too. So if you liked having no neck, you can bring that back with a slider."
"Let me be honest here. I love the citizen, I love how he looks, I love that he has no neck."
"But the feedback we've consistently got is that people hate them. They hate everything about them."
"So we're going to fidget around and change things to see if we can change that."
"Of course, this isn't what 'fixes' s&box on its own, but it something that comes up consistently in our many many many negative reviews, so it's something that we are addressing along with all the other feedback we receive."
