The original point of the game revolved around cookie-cutter first-person shooter gimmicks, such as capture the flag (aka intelligence), pushing a bomb to the enemy base, deathmatch (Arena, now defunct) and capturing control points (by Scout rushing every map). The 'skill' term that was present around this game before hats arrived, was transformed into a substandard concept by the majority of delusional idiots who do not only believe 'skill' now defines the volume of your virtual wardrobe and not your concrete in-game talent but actually consider that any and all skilled players are 'hackers' who should be 'reported' and/or voted off the server. Originally, it was a faithful recreation of the original Quake and Half-Life mod, Team Fortress Classic, but has since evolved from its original design into a pointless virtual collect-a-thon, where players now must hoard every cosmetic item they can, by any means necessary, in order to inflate their egos and show off their E-peen. Team Fortress 2 (often abbreviated as TF2) is a class based, war-themed, hat and dress-up simulator for the PC, Linux, consoles and Mac.
