It Pains me to Edit This Review and have to recommend against this game, because this game is OUTSTANDING and seriously deserves more than Valve has been lifting even a pinky to do anything with. You could consider that the...TL;DR version of this edited review in all honesty. Though I would more consider this a Full out rewrite since the previous review was ♥♥♥♥...but I digress.

For those who Somehow aren't in the know Team Fortress 2 is a Class-Team Based First Person Shooter with a Cartoony almost pixar-esque artstyle. (Though don't let that deceive you as there's PLENTY of Gore to Go around, this ain't Splatoon.) The basics of the game are rather simple, you enter a match, pick one of 9 of the playable classes...pick a loadout (if you have any extra weapons that is) And you frag out in one of the many game modes the game has to offer. ....Okay admittedly me saying that is an over simplified version of it as there's ALOT more to this game than what it seems on the Surface.

For start, though you probably know this if you've seen...ANY of the memes around this game...the game's full of personality and color unlike a good majority of FPSes out there. You've got the Cocky manchild, Scout. You've got the Practically CRIMINALLY insane Patriot, Soldier. The Calm and collected, Engineer...the list goes on. The Characters in this game are partially what makes this game stick out among the rest of it's FPS peers.

The OTHER thing that makes it stand out is the incredibly..INCREDIBLY High Skill ceiling, I've played this game for the betterment of 3000 Hours at this point...And I've STILL Not gotten anywhere near close being the most outstanding player in this game. THAT'S how big the Skill Ceiling is. And this isn't even mentioning the different Weapons that (for the most part) all aren't direct upgrades and instead serve as different Side-grades to the stock weapons you start off with, with their own strengths and weaknesses. This game is such a gold mine of outstanding glory and this game was released in 2007! And It's free?!

Sweet lord! Why would any one not reccommend this game?? I hear you asking if you aren't already in the know...and unfortunately alot of what I just said comes with a HUGE Caveat. And a plethora of Problems that Valve has been ignorant about.

The First Big thing...The last major update to this game came out in....2017. ..Yeah, It's been 6...YEARS since we've gotten any more real content outside of New Cosmetics. The Second Big thing The game might have a High Skill Ceiling...but it also has a pretty..steep Skill floor as well, meaning it can be pretty difficult to grasp what's going on if you're making the jump to this game. Not to say that It's impossible mind you...but it's still a pretty nasty thing to deal with, especially given that there aren't any GOOD tutorials in the game itself, to help new players get a better Idea of what you can do in this game.

But that all PALES in comparison to two major Problems that have been PLAGUING this game. THE BOTS. AND VALVE THEMSELVES. To Start...as of writing this Re-Review Casual mode...I.E the one Main mode that most people might gravitate towards when they first play the game...is Currently UNPLAYABLE, because of these Sniper Bots with Aim Bot that people make SPECFICALLY to ruin the game and kick actual human players to try and make the game die. Honestly to those people who make these stupid things, I have one thing to say to you. ♥♥♥♥. YOU.

The other Major Problem is Valve themselves. Due to how the company Operates..it effectively means that there's only at the very least one or two people actually WORKING on the game itself, meaning there's no way any major content will be releasing ANY reasonable time soon...No way of actually getting rid of the Bots...and compounded by the fact that they've basically been Radio Silent ever since jungle inferno came out...has led to this effect where the game has basically stagnated and is currently on LIFE support and Community support just to keep afloat!

Geez..I probably should end this review before it turns into even more of a rant. Anyway, as it stands I personally cannot reccommend playing this game myself, as unless something changes with Valve themselves..this game is gonna remain in it's current state...perhaps forever until the plug is pulled on it...whenever that is. Though If you still want to play the game...I can't stop you..Just don't sink that much money into this game. Valve needs to get their ♥♥♥♥ together SOMEHOW and throwing money at them isn't helping us get there.
