No hate to Blue though, at least from me, from Zenith, TheWhat and Fish maybe ;)
This was a funny map XD. For anyone who's curious, allow me to basically walk you through it. The first puzzle is actually quite simple. You just have to wait randomly for the door to open. For the next section, go Spy with the dead ringer and yer, as this puzzle requires you to be intimately familiar with how tf2's standard bots work. Start slowly but surely picking off the enemies from the back to the front, using the dead ringer when neccesary to retreat back to the initial hallway and recover. Ensure at least one enemy remains alive, and don't be like me, who ended up softlocking themselves from killing everything. Do NOT capture the point right behind the snipers, that's a fake and will kill you. Instead, walk behind the point and go through the waterfall. Ensure you're a Demoman for this section, because now you gotta play Pachinko with your stickies. If a sticky lands in a green spot, detonate it to open the door. From there, you have a long walk ahead of you due to a conveyor belt constantly pushing you back. Still be on your gaurd though, as Pyros will spawn the moment you try to cap the point. Take em all out, and you should be golden.
i love how everyone was chill and inquisitive the 1st time the door opened, frustrated and confused but determined the 2nd time, and the 3rd time the sheer DEPRESSION and PSYCHOSIS in their voices is insane 😭😭
yeah, I'm honestly wondering why none of them were like "I'm not having a good time, which is entirely intentional on your part. peace, I'll talk to you later asshole"

This has got to be one of your funniest yet. The sheer desperation in their voices had me fucking rolling throughout. And the fact that it just kept getting *more harsh*.
I realised the answer from the 20 minute hint. The timing was just too perfect, but I doubt I would have solved it as a player because whilst I was reasonably confident the first time I saw it, I became certain from seeing it happen for all three players. I also probably would've given up before 20 minutes out of frustration... This was like watching how religions form. 10/10 concept and execution

Alright, haven’t watched that far yet, my prediction is that none of the puzzles matter and the exit is at the very start Edit: Wait even better, the exit door just isn’t solid and all the puzzles ARE real, but they make no sense and don’t lead to anything
I realised the door opebs every 10 minutes like right away when watching but the fact that it changed mid-way gaslit me into believing it's not on a timer
Blue becoming some Eldritch God and draining the mental sanity of two of his "friends", and just making the third become just a ball of rage is the best
I knew at the 20 mins mark for them that it was on a timer lol, thewhatshow guessed correctly, and I noticed you were suspiciously confident in all 3 of them having completed the room again at the 20 min mark. It's actually pretty funny, in these other videos thewhatshow actually usually does pretty well but this time the overthinking actually played to their disadvantage and made them finish later than the others, this is such an evil troll map lol.
Fishstick legit went completely insane after like 20 mins lmao. These are some of my favorite TF2 yt videos. I really hope you continue making these with these guys, they are so entertaining and I really do appreciate all the time and work you put into making these maps and editing all 3 POVs.
I love how Fish was the only one to immediately after getting sniped said, “oh, the bots are back” then later started spinning while disguised as sniper, truly the most TF2 player of all time.
