  I haven’t been active in TF2 in years, but I have 2.9k hours, all without idling for items. That game was basically another life for me, around 2010-2016. In that timespan I picked up PC gaming, got into shooters, got into TF2, joined a community, started collecting strange weapons, got my first unusual and traded it, and captained a Highlander team as Pyro.

  The game was and still is amazing; I only ever stopped because it was becoming detrimental to my life and schooling. Now, when I try to play, I mourn the loss of my old community servers, get frustrated with my worse skills, and despise the number of bots I run into on Valve servers.

    The bots were what initially caused me to stop playing years ago. As much as i’d like to get back into it now though, i let the game dominate my life whenever i play regularly. Not to the point where it was a problem, but i can’t afford to sink that much time into it with my current lifestyle.
