if you want to blow up people in silly hats, or wear a silly hat and blow people up, or wear a silly hat while blowing up people in silly hats, it's fun!

Especially when your team loses because half of it stood around while they traded hats with each other.

I like the silly hats, personally. Keeps the shitbags who want to treat the game like a fucking job away.

Playing every other FPS, it's impossible to go a few rounds without running into some baby general trying to tell you how to game (and screaming slurs and obscenities when you don't fall into line).

Shit like octopus hats and goggles that turn the battlefield into Candyland make things impossible to take seriously. That's how I like it.

I still find TF2 very fun. The fact that there happen to be a large number of silly hats hasn't deprecated the gameplay.

That said, I was still able to get on a random server after not playing for six months and outscore everyone as a medic. I guess it's like riding a bicycle.

In my opinion, Valve doesn't get nearly enough shit for the fact that they put out TF2 for consoles, then didn't bother supporting it or doing anything for it. If you play it now it has some patches, but it's literally almost the same game as when it first launched.

I've always wondered why Team Fortress 2 always seemed to have a better quality of person playing it than most games like it, and I think American Standard just explained it pretty well.
