I had the same kind of feeling when Garry's Mod was new. Every day you could browse servers and find new interesting experiences. A roleplaying map like an elaborate small town, populated with other players. A competitive bridge-making minigame. A minimalist flat plane to build in. It crashed constantly. Structures would glitch out at random. Most servers were crawling with trolls and misanthropes. Still, from time to time you'd luck upon a few moments of nirvana. Easy to forget and forgive all the jank, and remember those feelings of endless possibilities.
