Honestly, it’s because TF2 is more than just a game—it’s a cultural phenomenon. The community, the humor, and the timeless gameplay all play a part. I came across this great article recently https://www.southwestjournal.com/gaming/why-team-fortress-2-is-thriving/ that dives into how the game stays so relevant even after all these years. You should give it a read—it explains a lot about why TF2 has such a devoted fanbase. It’s pretty fascinating!
