I've been a player for a long time and I absolutely love this game, the class dynamics, the weapon choices, the maps, hell, even getting pubstomped by the MLG Spy with the Kunai + DR combo or the Soldier with a Medic glued to his ass can be fun and a learning experience.

What is not fun is the current state of the official game servers as they are plagued with Bots who will auto headshot, votekick you and avoid anyone from actually playing the game, I will say it again, the game in its current state is unplayable on official Valve servers as it is absolutely PLAGUED with bots.

Team Fortress 2 is an absolute gem and it does not deserve to be held hostage by a bunch of malicious people who on top of making the game unplayable for everyone on official Valve servers, shamelessly advertise services for sale to grant "immunity" from the problem they created.

PLEASE VALVE! This game is loved by many, we are happy to spend money on it and continue genuinely sponsoring this game for as long as the game is enjoyable by both new and seasoned players. We urge you do something to fix the game that many of us have grown with be it casually or competitively.

I have such a history with this MMO that I don't even know where to begin.

If you are all for hard grinding, learning the meta and participating in an active community this is the MMO for you.
If you are more of a casual player, simply because you do not enjoy actively grinding or any other reason this game has a lot of AFK options as well!

Give it a try, if you have questions ask anyone you see online or simply visit the wiki, enjoy the game and remember, while getting a 99 or a mega rare drop sounds like a must do there's a lot of things in between that and the only thing that matters is that you have fun and make your own adventure.

Happy playing!

The first 10 hours you'll be mad, don't worry since the more you play you will only get madder, thank you Gaijin.
