      @crusader8 wait, so he dislikes it because it's not a generic shooter?

              @nixter i like casual ones. Borderlands and tf2 with friends. Not a fan of larger scale multiplayer.

                @abigpony It's funny. I'm like a hermit. I play almost all my games alone. Even like TF2 and Halo and stuff. In Borderlands I got to level 69 play through 2.5 killed everything ever, got alotta epic and cyan weapons, all single player. :) Hunters (don't) unite!

                      @nixter First time I played as Brick. The game was far too easy and hardly enjoyable. I then played as Mordecai and then Lilith, both fun to play through the game with as they're pretty thin on defense. haven't played the soldier yet.

                          @nixter Brick you just ran up and blasted things. It was too easy. I've never been a good sniper, so I never entirely beat the game with him, but Lilith is proving real fun. I seem to be having difficulties finding elemental weapons as I move on, though.

                            @abigpony Well y'know everyone can use everyone weapon so if you did play as Mordecai you could still be stocked with SMG's and Assault rifles. (Which you can be very, very deadly if you spec him out correctly, and he is naturally awesome with all types of pistols, revolvers, repeaters, everything) Vladolf, Jackobs,

                              @nixter Well they just do extra damage with and increase their proficiency faster with their special weapon types. I used alot of repeaters on mordecai and snipers with Lilith even though she does less with snipers because it's good to be well-rounded.

                                  @nixter That's one thing I've never used on any class besides tank is launchers. They aren't that useful.

                                        @abigpony No I mean 1 shot, many, many clusters in one big.. cluster. It's a rare rocket launcher, it's like Helix but condensed into awesome.

        @abigpony you didn't read the article. If you insist on oversimplifying a point, his argument could best be described as "TF2 does not sell itself well to [him]." Funny enough, I've played it and everything about it seemed run-of-the-mill except for the attempted humor.

          @crusader8 his whoke argument boils down to "it's bad because it just spouts memes (it doesn't) and it doesn't use typical shooter mechanics or point systems"

          1. Crusader 8 Crusader 8

            @abigpony he didn't say it spouts memes, nor did he say that was why he disliked it. His dislike of the game is the subject of only his first paragraph. He mentions memes in the second paragraph, which isn't about his distate for the game at all and is instead a (satirically humorous) analysis on MvM's revitalization of co-op item grind and TF2 popularity in general. In your defense however, Jerry Holkins likes to make language his plaything and his articles can be quite counter-productive in their verbosity

              @crusader8 The whole thing is about his dislike of the game. Though the second paragraph is focused on MvM, he still constantly insults it so as to backup his claim, taking shots at the core game along the way.
