koniii Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 To be honest, I don't necessarily think anyone should care too much about this post. It's more or less directed to the actual game instead. Team Fortress 2, God you've been such a giant part of my online career and I'm so grateful for the amazing memories. Unfortunately, it's not the same anymore. The servers are bot ridden and it doesn't seem like Valve will fix it. I keep having hope, but hope isn't good enough. You've become nothing but a bot ridden money hole for me. I've invested so much time and money just to end up becoming a target for scammers and sometimes they've won too and took so much money from me. This wasn't the way I wanted things to end. This isn't the way I wanted to stop playing but I know if I continue to play, it'll only become much harder to let you go when your time is inevitably coming to a conclusion soon. You're a 2007 game, that alone is amazing. You've managed to stay relevant for nearly 2 decades. Sadly, Valve can't see that. It's best for me to let you go while I have the option to. This post alone hurts so much more than any romantic breakup I've had. Call me cringe but It's hard to let go of the one and only game I've wanted to play, after school, after work, and even after dates sometimes. This isn't like any other game. It's like giving up and dropping a close friend. It's hard to watch you crumble slowly, watching all the fan-made projects get shut down, watching the economy spiral into insanity, having large portions of the game rendered useless (in game trading.) It doesn't have that special touch it once had. VSH feels plain, MVM is broken, Casual is pointless, JB is Admin Abused, Trading is incredibly slow. Even the community couldn't save it forever. In conclusion, I love this game so much. I'm going to miss this game incredibly as well but it's sometimes better to let go than to hold on. Goodbye Team Fortress 2 may Valve someday praise you as they once did. Thank you for the memories.

If you've soaked up the atmosphere enough, I've made attempts to get out and forget before. This game sits on a different level in my heart. Even if you do log into the game for 20-30 minutes a day.

I'm currently taking a break due to midterms and spring break coming in like less than 2 weeks. I truly don't think it's a goodbye more like a see you later or like me taking a break. Good luck though and I do pray that Valve does fix their game. Maybe with the 64bit update that's coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NobodyNose Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 This post was made 15 hours ago, and Baloo checked his profile lets say about the time he replied, which was 12ish hours after the thread was made? There is a high chance he deleted the game since he quit. 19 minutes ago, VC FP RussellSproutz_YT HF said: No no you right I just checked his too.

The thing is it's a free-to-play game and if someone hides their games it's not visible.

RussellSproutz Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Ya'll are right and the more you know. All I'm saying is that the state of play is pretty rough, and not to mention we haven't been able to do in-game trading for a couple of months now like since last year. Valve do be neglecting it rn like it's the middle child or smth. Mind you, I love the game, been here since 2012. Still seeing it now as it is. It's just sad. I'll still be here though. I got hope that 64 bit will bring some change. Edit: For the better and not for the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habibi Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 when will people treat games as games? it's not a job or a place you moved to, calling it quits and I miss the game or whatever, you can't really quit a game, you play whenever you like, sure it's not like it's used to be, sure scammers burn the passion when they steal something, you could lose passion to it, you can even discuss that it's okay, but it always felt weird to me since 2013 to see posts of people say "I quit" and sob through memories and frustration only for them to end up playing couple months later.
