    The art style of old war in tf2: i fear no man but that thing
    A soldier wearing pink fox head, deer rack and a skull mask filled with 3 unusual on one head
    Tf2 art style: it scare me

    if i remember correctly, the characters were designed to have unique silhouettes so that recognizing what class a player was would be quick and easy

    Tbh I love the art style of TF2 and the reason I still play it is because the game is visually appealing to me.

    Fun fact, when they first started development on tf2, they planned on making the graphical style realistic, like the first one. I can't remember what caused them to change their minds, but I'm honestly really glad they did, it holds up well and stands out against a lineup of realistic gritty military shooters of their age.
    It sort of reminds me of how Yoshi's Island was originally intended to have prerendered graphics like Donkey Kong Country, but Shigeru Myamoto argued with them and ultimately drew all the assets to look like cute crayon drawings. As a result, Yoshi's Island still looks great DECADES later, and Donkey Kong Country... well... it's very much a product of its time.

    You don’t know just how happy I was to see this notification XD
    The thing that attracted me most to TF2 was the art style and the attention to detail to each character. I first noticed this with the meet the team videos and I’ve been hooked ever since. Each character is able to portray a specific personality without even opening their mouth. They are able to communicate who and what they are by their posture, the way they walk, and, of course, their attire.
    In short, I absolutely adore this game and would like if you made future videos on it. Please and thank you so much!

    Tf2 has a special place in my heart-it was a huge influence on me artistically and the early fandom was full of talented artists who motivated me to draw outside my comfort zone. I’d love to see more in depth vids about individual character designs.

    It's not really about art, but I love how the writers didn't make some characters good and some others bad, they decided instead to make all of them evil, crual or stupid, and they still managed to make them lovable ! I think that's genius

    Man does this bring back a wave of good memories.
    I ended up stumbling across the meet the pyro video years ago as I wanted to get into COD and from that moment I was hooked.
    I spent hundreds of hours playing, first in quick play, man I miss that, then in casual mode. I got hocked on playing each class in unique ways with the unlocked weapons where I ended up waisting about 40 bucks on the Mann.co store.
    But above it all, I loved the characters personality in the game and in the comics along with other games. So if you want to play a free game for a bit I’d suggest tf2 for anyone with a decent pc

    Tf2 has a good community, the problem is that some edgy 9-12 year olds failed to turn to fortnite, probably becouse they think its pay to play, and minecraft got stale to them, so they came to ruin both the community of Team Fortress 2, and the community of Overwatch

  • @jUppers
    @jUppers 5 лет назад

    well yeah of course they kill each other, they are mercenaries, it's their job
    and killing isn't the main point of this game, the scoreboard is proof of that, K/D is completely thrown out the window and you have a points system that rewards you for healing, backstabbing, capping, blocking cap, assisting, etc. basically doing your job as the class you're playing with. you get more points with heavy just standing on the payload than actually going for kills

    5:58 "to people my age, may seem like a desirable, simpler, perhaps more beautiful time."
    Your age? I thought you were like 24 y/o?
    I only mention it because it doesn't seem like idealizing the 1960s, like you admit some in your generation do, is not something that people do because they're of that generation, but because its part of their culture.
    (Being from Massachusetts myself, I know firsthand that New Englanders are often too willing to idealize the past.) This is not a generational phenomenon, it is cultural conservatism. And we should all try to be conscious of it since it's at the heart of the return of fascism that's sweeping Brazil, France, Italy and (today) Portland.
