I love that people are starting to realise how good the Soldier is. He isn’t my first choice, but those turret farms are suddenly in pieces because two people realise “hmmm… soldiers have rockets… rockets own turrets…”

I love watching the community morph every week to adapt to trends. I’ve noticed a lot less spies, a lot more Soldiers, and more Demomen attacking in their own slow way.

I find the demoman a bit tedious, the sniper, while very well-realised, just isn’t how I personally like to play, and the increasing frequency of engineer turret deadlocks are starting to really infuriate me.

I can’t do much with the spy, I have to admit. The pyro doesn’t quite do it for me either. I want the flamethrower from Kingpin.

RPS: Any less favourite characters?

RW: I don’t play a lot of Demoman, but I get destroyed by it a lot. There’s some really good Demoman players in this company.

Really enjoyed reading the interview – great stuff!

It really shows just how fantastic the working environment at Valve is – allowing the developers such freedom to explore all those little details that combine to make their games so special (as well as the freedom to completely redevelop the game several times over a 10 year period!).
