Valve have managed to give the classes in an online team shooter more of an inner life than most developers can manage in a 40+ hour storyline - I'm saying that the documentary style direct-to-camera conversations have more potential to reveal a side of the characters we don't normally see, and that's an inherently funny concept.


Don't get me wrong, I like that format too. Except that they don't reveal anything we didn't already know. What does Meet the Demoman teach us? That he drinks heavily, likes to blow shit up, and is painfully aware he's a one-eyed black Scotsman? Five minutes in-game will teach you that. The point of these vids are to be funny vignettes.
