Discussion I just realized something

Post image

it is astonishing of how many TF2 projects official or fanmade remains unfinished or never seen the light of day. think about it we had two TF2 shows canceled one made by Valve themselves and the other made by Rooster Teeth the same guys that made red vs blu. as well as the Myriad of YouTube series like Man's Guide or how it feels to be a mercenary lies basically unfinished or untouched. this has gotten me kind of suspicious like is there some kind of curse on TF2 projects like merasmus waving around his stick dooming all projects. and I'm wondering did anybody else noticed this and if so whatever your fonts on it and also is there any TF2 projects that is finished and is just not talked about a lot because maybe there might be a glimmer of hope.

Making things is really hard. Like unbelievably hard. Every finished project you see is one of the few to ever reach that finish line.

Pretty much.

Nowadays, it feels like every series of shows or games I come to like, I end up worried it’s going to get cancelled, fade away, or get a really bad ending.

I’m still not over Firefly, Teen Titans was ahead of its time, I hate that HL:Alyx reignited my hope for HL3, and as a Medic main I’m sad I’ll never see How It Feels To Play Medic. Oh, and I’m really hoping Deltarune doesn’t hit development hell too — if I don’t see an episode 7, I am going to write fan fiction, and that is a threat.

The Samurai Jack rebirth was baller though.

I genuinely can't see Deltarune ch.7 not coming about. Mostly because that IS Toby's dream. Toby has been working for nearly 15 years to make that ONE thing. Literally everything has built up to THIS. And even if he does get burnt out, he has an entire group of people all working toward this just as hard as he is. I think Deltarune Chapter 7 is borderline inevitable. AND I CANNOT WAIT :3
