Team Fortress 2, released in 2007, is a team-based shooter that has withstood the test of time with its appealing artistic style and the distinct personality and charisma of each of its characters. Additionally, the game offers a compelling narrative through comics, complemented by its mechanics and a wide variety of maps. While it wasn't my first shooter, it was the only one that truly captivated me, and to this day, it never fails to bring a smile to my face. The mere thought of its abandonment tugs at my heartstrings until I recall that a work can be separated from its creator and still convey an eternal message if there's someone to listen, someone like you, someone like me—someone who embraces the illusion until it becomes a reality.
