Boring, repetitive and mind-numbing.
I don't know what happened exactly, but from all the Deathmatch classic games, I really hated Team Fortress 2. The graphics and ascetics, the gameplay loop and the combat itself.
Team Fortress 2 is a multiplayer only game in which 2 teams battle it out in different game modes. You got all the classics like King of The Hill, Capture the Flag, Deathmatch and some unique ones like Medieval Mode and Special Delivery.
The principle is always the same. Blow up members of the enemy team and score the most points. There are different classes available, each with their own purpose and abilities. You got a Scout, Pyromancer, Medic, Engineer and many more.
In theory, these classes and the way the game is supposed to be played, revolves around a balanced team with different members that, together with clever teamwork, can overpower the opponent. The medic heals teammates; the Heavies guard a certain exit etc. However, this game is all over the place. You pick a certain class, just go with the flow, and try not to die.
I have a special dislike for the cartoonish and jolly graphics in Team Fortress 2. Normally I can write whole lectures about what I didn't like, how bad the animations are etc. but with this game, I can't. I just think it looks ugly and that's it.
The sound effects and music are fine; they could be a lot worse.
The controls are fluent, although sometimes it feels a little unresponsive. This, however, is mainly me who is not that great in Deatmatch shooters in general.
My biggest personal complaint about this game is the sheer chaos. I try to reach a place, follow an enemy or simply walk around and BAM, I am dead. Some turrets on a ledge pumped my @ss full of lead. After respawning, my screen is obstructed with the fires of hell and a Pyro just burned me into a crisp.
Sure, I am not that great at Team Fortress 2, just like I am not that great at Call of Duty, CSGO and many others. The only difference is, I can enjoy those games, unlike Team Fortress 2.
In the end, I personally hated Team Fortress 2 and knew that this is not the game for me. It is too chaotic, blend, unrewarding and straight up boring (in my opinion).

A Unique Multiplayer Game
you should play Team Fortress 2 right now. Not only because it's free, but also because it has a fun experience and satisfying gameplay.
There are many aspects of TF2 that makes it unique: the cartoonish graphic, the characters designs and the fast paced and chaotic gameplay. TF2 has so many ways to be played: there are 9 class in total, but every single one of them has several weapons and the classes itself are so distinguish from one another and there are so many maps and minigames to choose from; the possibilities are basically endless. Not only that, but it also rewards the players for their individual and collective skills.
The game itself, is free, but if you want to customize your character (miscs and hats) you have to pay to upgrade for the premium version but it does not interfere in the gameplay. The premium version only give players acess to hats and clothes.
The only sad stuff is that the game is almost abandoned by Valve and doesn't get updates regularly. However the community still is strong and super active.
Rating score 8/10
