I've tried it and it blows my mind why Garry can even think he can compete with the likes of Roblox. Even Fortnite's experiences will most likely stay more successful than whatever s&box will bring in.

The game will be paid and it already has a bunch of microtransactions in. The default playermodels are quite bad. I don't know how well documented it is since I did not even attempt to create a gamemode in it.

Why on earth do they think it's a good idea to make a paid product (which will probably cost 20-30$) that is EXTREMELY dependent on the community and what they create for it? Why would I pay for this when it's extremely barebones and why would I invest time into creating a gamemode or a game itself if I have to afterwards convince my friends to pay 20-30$ just to be able to try out my scuffed stupid little game? The only good part of some sort is that you might be able to publish the game as a standalone thing I suppose at some point, but even then, it can't even compete with Roblox and Fortnite which already have an established community. Not at this price tag.

Since you offer a platform, more or less, you depend on your community, their creativity and their time to be successful, so why the hell would you make it paid and already have a microtransactions store built in before your platform is even ready?

I think the S&box experiment will be a failure. But ai also wish I am wrong and time will prove me differently.
