New Review:
This game is beautiful and is actively rotting away, and yet we as consumers kept standing by and letting your corporate greed tell you what to do, when it has always been us who have been in charge of that.

Valve is too afraid to do anything to TF2 because they realize that they have not made any original content for this IP in the past 7 years and would much rather keep the community doing the work, and also have them take the blame when Valve takes a nose dive and adds ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ maps and cosmetics.

A lot of people hate on Zesty, and while I do 80% side with the community on the thoughts of how rough his criticism are, he definitely understands a whole deal more about the quality control of the assets that Valve should pump out, than Valve itself does.

Valve keeps wanting us to keep thinking of it as this big shot that knows what is best for the game, and while that was the case many years ago, that is not the case now.

This company is so utterly out of touch with the gaming sphere that their celebration of the anniversary of their company was just some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ profile cosmetics that only F2P players use out of desperation, instead of promotional content that would promote both their games and their special event.

Valve is no longer in shape to tell the community what is best for us, as they have long lost our trust.

Shutting down many great projects that were on the scale of CS2 quality-wise, only to go back to jacking off to their bootleg Nintendo switch that they emulate Nintendo porn games on.

Valve is so utterly out of touch that they are developing another hero-based class shooter, for a player base of people who genuinely have found their niche. Not to mention the entire selling concept of this game being that it is a mixture of Smite, Overwatch, TF2, CS2, and League of Legends? This ♥♥♥♥ sounds like the idea of a 2-year-old who is trying to cook for the first time, by adding all of their favorite ingredients, only to make this jumbled pot of sewage water that nobody is going to eat, and which is going to be littered with rats on Day 1 (IE Bots).

Did you really think that by creating a new scapegoat you would be free from what your other IPs are suffering from? You as a company are like a convict that keeps trying to run from city to city, without realizing that with each escape where you avoid facing your consequences, you further prepare the next city over for the jumbled mess you are about to bring forth.

When The Finals first came out, I was super worried about its future, as it is an amazing game and is on the level of quality control to rival that of any of Valve's IPs. At the time, I was thinking to myself of how great it would have been for them to add loot boxes or get bought out by Valve as an excellent IP worth preserving.

But then I realized:
I would much rather have The Finals die where it stands, than have it devolve into this modern-day Simpsons level of degeneracy that is faced by the lack luster updates that Valve pumps out, all of which aren’t even made by them.

Either find a way to fix the bot crisis or pass along TF2 to a more caring home.
You do not care about us. So just sell the game off to a different company that actually cares about the well-being of the franchise, and forget about the worries of having to fix the issues of this game.

But we all know you won't do that, we will have about 3 more FixTF2's before you even move a single finger, as you are no longer the game company that we all once loved and looked up to.

Next time you decide to make a commemorative celebration of your company's anniversary, make sure you exclude the cross-dressed Spy from your celebration.

You no longer deserve to be associated with this franchise, as you have forgotten what has brought you the millions with which you go to Hawaii every year.

(PS - A couple of words about the protests-
Do NOT review bomb games that are not TF2. By review bombing other games, you are bringing in hate from other communities, making people dislike the movement and what it stands for. The only two acceptable games to review bomb are:
TF2 - as brining bad reputation is bound to bring Valves attention once more
Deadlock - because there is no way for us as a community to excuse being replaced by a half-baked excuse of a video game, that has no cultural importance, and yet clearly attracted so many valve employees because all of the staff clearly always want to be working “on the best new thing” hence why there is a clear supporting team on deadlock.
Hating on Deadlock will not even be a necessary factor for me to point out, it is going to receive hate from day one, up until it witheres away like Artifact.)

Old Review:
A timeless masterpiece that needs no introduction

TF2 is hands down the best first person, multiplayer shooter ever made. It has everything, from iconic characters to solid gameplay. It has inside jokes, a competitive scene, a trading system with an actual economy; a cinema scene with complete access to all of the games assets, a never-ending supply of fan-made content, and to top it all, this game, and all of its features, are all ABSOLUTELY FREE.

TF2 has an entire workshop community which is purely dedicated to creating content for TF2, which valve, if see fit, can port into the game and make it accessible within the economy of the game (a portion of the profits from which will go to the creators of the content).

Team Fortress 2 is an amazing game in the aspect that it has been going strong since its release, and has been at the top of the most played games on steam, despite its competition actually getting proper updates.

Minecraft may be the best sandbox game ever made, but FPS wise, that honor belongs to TF2. The successful creation of which hasn't been able to be duplicated in other games that came and went as this absolute titan of a series stood and didn't even flinch.

It is great to see tf2 finally get some love but even if it shall only get bug fixed from here on out, nothing, and absolutely nobody, will be able to eclipse the sheer beauty of this digital masterpiece.
