I hate to plug my blog here

(or anywhere in general), but I don't want to have to rewrite an angry rant about Team Fortress 2.

Quote:

After seeing that Team Fortress 2 had an update I was excited. What could they have possibly added? Engineer update? Demoman update? My heart was pounding as I right clicked on “Team Fortress 2″ in Steam, and hit “View Update News”. What was it? Something remotely exciting? No, not exactly. More like anger inducing.

“Added Bill’s Hat for players who pre-purchase Left 4 Dead 2“. I have not pre-purchased Left 4 Dead 2. I haven’t even played the original Left 4 Dead (which entails an entirely other story). Yet, those of us who purchase Team Fortress 2 are left out. I had very hope that they release Bill’s Hat for all players after Left 4 Dead 2 is release, or… well, we won’t get into that now.

As I said in the post, why must Valve do this? Alienate a decent bulk of their customers? I still have yet to play L4D, and after the L4D2 fiasco, I'm getting even more angry. Where else to go to get my online gaming fix? Battlefield [1942|2|2142]? Too buggy, and just not the type of game I can call my "default". Enemy Territory: Quake Wars? It's decent, but it's getting stale.

I'm the exception, not the rule. Remember that, and you'll be all right.
