A Region's Legacy of Decay: the Story of Asian TF2
21For clarification, this video is focused on ATF2L, and Asian 9v9.
A revisiting and much more nuanced take to the administrative and cultural issues that the Asian TF2 scene faces, featuring not one; but two current Asian UGC Highlander Admins! Very satisfied with this one. Watch the submarine interview if you want more lore on Claritea & specific examples of issues the Asian Region has faced. On that note though, that video is a much less respectful tone/story. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixGe4VGSybY
Start was a little slow, was experimenting with new mic bindings and getting back into doing the interviews.
