Ideas
GrampaSwood's ideas
- Removed the ability of the Engineer to be gaming. (Obvious engineer gaming fad reference)
- Removed government agents spying on players. (Would totally fit Mann Co. doing shady stuff, also references community fad)
- All players can now build walls and stairs using materials gathered from the environment. (Fortnite recently removed the ability to build)
- Removed localization files, too confusing for new developers. (Standard loc files joke)
or
- Removed localization files so we can update them again. (Standard loc files joke, if the game's devs are too touchy of a subject)
- Replaced vehicle taunts with electric vehicles to accommodate climate change. (Mann Co. is responsible towards the environment! Without an environment, there are no people, and no people means no one to sell hats and weapons to!)
- The Half-Zatoichi can now deflect attacks when timed right. (Sekiro reference)
- Demoman's shields can now parry if you git gud. (Dark Souls reference)
- Reintroduced Duck Tokens and made them Non-fungible. (NFTs)
- Increased chance for Spy to say certain voice lines when within a 10 meter radius of a vent shaft. (I love among us)

- I like all of your ideas with the exception of the Duck Token. I previously talked on IRC regarding joking NFTs (don't remember exactly what it was, but it had to do something with NFTs), but this is a topic that is widely hated by a lot of people, and usually get a ton of backlash. I think it would be better not include this one. Valve themselves said they won't allow Blockchain games on their store, too. I know this is a section for ideas (which may or may not be included on the fake patch note), but just wanted to point it out.

- I am aware of this, but I think for April Fool's it's obvious enough that it's a joke. Fortnite is commonly hated as well and we've had stuff from Fortnite before.
