I think I met tf2 at the end of 2015 at the internet cafe when someone left tf2 open on the computer. if I remember correctly it was the last weeks of “invasion update” and tf2 blew my mind. It was good times, now it's 2025 and tf2 is full of the dumbest and freakiest people, normie newbies who can't do anything for the team in casual, autistics who use gas passers in a perfect game mode like mvm and only think about the prize at the end of the match, pedophile admins on community servers, endless dumbass shrill voiced kids and stupid idiots who are still waiting for a major update to an 18 year old game. Anyway, let's look at the state of valve now, the bot crisis that was fixed after 8 years (it's not even a valve employee who fixed it!), the fact that eric smith, the last devoloper of tf2, masturbates when it comes to producing content for tf2, weapons that have not been balanced for 8 years, and the fact that valve sees tf2 only as a money-squeezing machine. There is much more to be said but words fail me. Good luck playing tf2 in 2025.
