Team Fortress 2 has had the same roster of nine characters since it was released. The Winds of Change and a Force O’ Nature Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s look at what makes both games amazing. Valve paved the way for Overwatch to become the globe-sweeping sensation that it is today. If anything, it’s a testament to how iconic and influential Team Fortress 2 was during the latter half of the 2000s. Overwatch is only great because it is standing on the shoulders of giants–in other words, Team Fortress 2. This isn’t meant to sound antagonizing or dismissive. Let’s start by getting one thing out of the way: Overwatch is the future, and Team Fortress 2 is the past. I’m not going to tell you that apples are objectively better than oranges, but what I will do is lay down the facts and let you decide for yourself. The game isn’t as fast as Overwatch, but it’s got over-the-top cartoon violence, a wicked sense of humor, and years of solid entertainment. Team Fortress 2 is the genre’s seasoned veteran, and gamers have been enjoying the addictive gameplay and colorful cast of characters for over a decade now. Team Fortress 2 debuted in Valve’s Orange Box collection, alongside Portal and Half Life 2. Overwatch is about as far away you can get from the brainless FPS deathmatches of games like Call of Duty.
Overwatch focuses on streamlined gameplay, intuitive mechanics, and features objective-based maps. Blizzard pulled a phoenix from the ashes of their failed MMORPG project, which had been dubbed ‘Titan’ during the early days of development.
It is far and away the fastest growing title of any video game in the history of ever and stuff. Overwatch is the new kid on the block, just over a year old. I’m talking about the big guns here, friends–the baseball bat-bonkingest, shotgun splattiest, meme-bazookas that are Overwatch and Team Fortress 2. Who doesn’t love ’em? But when you apply that many filters to your search query, it’s going to boil down to two and only two games.įine, two games that anyone cares about. Team-based objective-driven role-heavy shooters.
