is this game worth buying or its dead

You need to find the type of people you will click with, if you like City RP join DarkRP, if you like StarwarsRP join a StarwarsRP. It's really just based off your interests and you can be as Serious/Nonserious as you want to be.

Honestly, I hate people that say garrys mod is dead its not dead the gamemode darkrp gets like 3k players a day its not dead if it was dead the game would be played by noone and if 3k people is no one well.....

Its not dead, but the quality of servers has definitely decreased since 2013

it's not that dead it's pretty alive n yes its worth it download and play rnn
