I am looking for people to play both games with. The games tend to be filled with lots of reactionaries so it can be hard to exist in them.

Like I get kicked a lot in tf2 for having a queer flag pfp, and it is hard to queue for group content in dark and darker if I don't want to hear slurs.

By tf2 are you referring to Team Fortress 2? I feel like every shooter these days is a class-based shooter, what sets tf2 apart from something like Overwatch?

[–] rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.org 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

literally none of them have spy or anything close to it for a start

overwatch fucked itself up so hard its barely playable now

xDefiant has a class with an invisibility skill (which lets one do plenty of shotgunning losers in the back)? Apex Legends has Mirage with various decoy and invisibility skills? idk, I don't know every single one of these shooters, but I will grant you that the way the Spy works in TF2 is pretty unique.

a big issue is accessibility as well, a lot of those are organized around headshots and are much less clear visually, as well as requiring much stronger computers to play

so while tf2 has a fascist problem, it also has a lot of people i aint gonna leave behind

So many games focus mainly on competitive play. Tf2 is the only multiplayer fps where I feel free to relax and goof off.
