TF2 is coming up on 20 years and I feel like we're still getting clones.
I would actually like even 1 good clone of tf2. The hero part is always the focus and not the fun class based gameplay
, while fighting the RedsIt's hard to iterate on perfection.
The style of the 60s spy cartoon aesthetic is unmatched, everyone else just does quirky tumblr waifus
My favorite thing about TF2 is how when it comes down to it, the characters are all psychopathic, mentally deranged mercenaries wasting their lives for hats. Like even Ms Pauling is a workaholic secretary who’s also basically a serial killer. As comedic as the premise is, it’s also dark which is fitting for Source engine games.
Every other game makes their characters noble heroes saving the world from armageddon which is overplayed. The TF2 mercs go against machines, but it’s not the main game lol
But but they're doing looter shooter and/or MOBA and/or extraction shooter mechanics and there's committee-designed waifus just waiting for third party pornificaton 
I'm so fucking tired of apex legends but it's all my friends will play, it's impossible to get them to agree on any other game except Dota and I hate Dota even more
I think we need a few more
Eat shit, tf2
