A year ago, I made a video about Team Fortress 2's default settings and why they are so detrimental to the game's lifespan. That video sparked quite a discussion and enabled the growth of my channel, but the video is not without its flaws. In this follow-up, I'll be doing a more in-depth analysis of the game's default settings and showing why exactly they are so much of an issue.

Settings Discussed:
fov_desired 90
viewmodel_fov 70
tf_use_min_viewmodels 1
cl_interp 0.0325
cl_interp_ratio 1
rate 97000
cl_updaterate 66
cl_cmdrate 66

(Yes, I increased the rate! Use this one instead.)
