How DARE they...checks notes protect the IP that they created, own, and are still running
Tf2 has been borderline unplayable on official valve servers for the past 5 years. They cant even bother to fix the item servers in 3 days
I mean couldn't they just still make their own "class base" shooter in S&box without the TF2 IP involved? So you get the enjoyment of those tropes while not "stepping on the toes" of Valve and out compete the game.
Edit: hell it would even let them try new and different things with the formula. Change up the look of the game maybe even bring it closer to the classic TF look.
Say what you will, I had more fun with the item servers being down than I have in many years. It felt like an unplanned community event or something to me, shit was awesome.
(Point taken that it literally only happened due to Valve being negligent though)
