Back in 2007, I got a copy of TF2 from The Pirate Bay, which ran on a Russian server and required weekly patches to be manually downloaded from a website. These updates became larger and more frequent over time, and keeping up with them became difficult due to my sluggish internet connection. I was a student and I could not afford to buy it. An year later I persuaded my parents to get me the Orange Box, which is how I came to have access to this Steam account.

I'll never be able to express how much fun I've had with this game...

I went to Overwatch and returned only to find that it stands no where near this game. Some may believe that OW is a spiritual successor to TF2, they are mistaken...

It's incredible that this game is still so fantastic at the end of 2021!
