I can't believe I live in a time period that has the TF2 VAs singing blues about sanviches! Born to late for the 80s, too early for 2100, but just in time for Sandvich Blues!
I love how the voice actors are still close and participate in all of these shitposts. Also I love how Heavy's voice actor just looks like an older version of Heavy.
the amount of passion behind Robin's lines really brings it all together, never thought I'd live to see the day the Spy, Heavy, Sniper, Medic and The Admin herself create a band
The fact a 16 year old game still has such a dedicated fanbade that it regularly brings such a talented ensemble of colleagues together for random fun stuff like this...hell, life ain't as bad as I used to think.
Incredible, you could listen to them singing eyes closed and suddenly having the Mercs animated like a SFM clip. Such true passion is rare and must be tresured like a jewel.
