Team Fortress 2 fans have been through a lot: Game abandonment; Bot invasions; CP in the chats, and; The comic hiatus. Fans tried for years to request help through, shall we say, proper channels, but Valve ignored them like a bad headcanon. After that, fans decided to get creative.
Team Fortress 2 fans have been through a lot: Game abandonment; Bot invasions; CP in the chats, and; The comic hiatus. Fans tried for years to request help through, shall we say, proper channels, but Valve ignored them like a bad headcanon. After that, fans decided to get creative.
TF2 had a colorful array of offerings, from animations to comics. The fans devoured this media with glee. Lore, characters, and entire character arcs could be read or viewed away from the battlefield, spawning their own memes, gifs, and quotes that are still adored by gamers. That made the many-year hiatus of the comics and Valve’s silence all the more painful.
Recently, though, there was a breakthrough.
A new page was revealed with Ms. Penny announcing the revenge of TF2, as well as patches and updates to the game, the servers being cleared of the bots and CP (why it took so long for just this is anyone’s guess), and official word from Valve of the legitimacy of the posts. This is both great and terrifying. Obviously, it’s fantastic the fans finally seem to have been heard by the company that made/abandoned/returned to their game, but the nagging thought remains as to why: Is it really for TF2 or are they setting up for the end?
It is too early to know for certain, but maybe we can enjoy this while it lasts.
