I first came across TF2 a few years ago, towards the end of my high school years. High school was difficult for me, but TF2 helped me. Although my internet was very poor at the time, I insisted on playing it, having especially fallen in love with MvM. I also became enamoured with the characters and the setting. I adored the comics I’ve read and the shorts I’ve watched. I found a community through others who share my interest in this game, and I became fascinated with all the work they’ve done.

As time goes on, my interests and fandoms shift. Sometimes, I find myself returning to a few interests, and TF2 has become one of those interests for me. I’ve made bonds and friendships that all deeply enriched my life, and I find myself wanting to improve my art even more. I find myself feeling proud of the fics I’ve written. Heck, I’m even proud of the short-lived fan comic I made because of this game! There are a lot of things I’ve done and experienced that happened because of this game and the people I met through this interest.

I’m still so very fascinated with the community the fans have made. There’s so much love for such an old, silly game. While I may not always play the game, TF2 is very important to me.

Even with the bot problems and all of its imperfections, I would love to play TF2 for a little longer.
