Title
I don't tend to play a) FPS games and b) Multiplayer games, but here's my 2 pence-worth of thoughts regardless.

The game is fun once you know what you're doing and with friends (playing solo-q with random Russians should count as cruel and unusual punishment by contrast), and not taking the game _too_ seriously. A competitive party game, essentially.

Whilst a lot of my friends also play other games in the same vein such as R6:Siege, Valorant or once-upon-a-time Overwatch, I've never felt the same pull to join in, and that's partially down to CS:GO's 'relative' surface simplicity (It might also be sunk cost fallacy to be honest!).

There are absolutely problems and valid complaints with this game, but based on all the complaints about R6:Siege, Valorant etc. I hear from friends they have similar themes, leading me to think that the Stroustrup quote about programming languages ("There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses.) also broadly applies to team-based games like CS.

Still excited for the upcoming CSGO2 regardless.

Title
The best worst FPS
I think many avid CS:GO players hate this game. Terrible graphics, extremely simple and repetitive combat, no real updates (except the ones that take your money through skins), toxic community, bad matchmaking mechanism, 2 minute long rounds only to die in a millisecond when you finally see an enemy etc. etc.

But somehow it has been my favorite shooter for 7 years, and continues to be. I think it might be because CS:GO is a game at the roots of a first person shooter. Raw Aim and game knowledge. No luck, no different characters with different abilities, no fictional bullshit with a bunch of colors. Just grey depressing maps, and realistic gunplay. That's it actually, no game has gunplay at counterstrike level. In those few moments where everything works and your playing with friends, and the whole team has great communication, and it's the last round, and you clutch a 1v3to secure the win, that feeling is unmatched. The dopamine that releases, is greater than cocaine.

Title
Worst FPS I've ever played
- Aesthetic equivalent of a direct to DVD swat movie. Levels have about the same level of appeal or detail to them as stock pictures of malls. Player characters are a boring grey mess, making it completely impossible to distinguish friend from foe - despite the fact that they are clearly separated in two factions. Absolutely disgusting to look at.
- Gunfight design is trash. All weapons feel the same, everything downs in you in 2-3 shots, unless it's a cheater with impossible headshots every time. Movement is so stilted that fucking early 90s shooters feel more dynamic. Coming to this from Apex Legends feels as if your character has recently had a stroke. There's a mechanic where you freeze when you're being shot which is so incredibly stupid i don't even want to waste words on it.
- Community is more toxic than an MRA forum. I've played under 10 matches, and cheaters were ample in every one and very easily recognizable.
- Absolutely no variety in matches or entertainment value. You just get loaded onto a map, walk 10 paces and get instantly downed. In Apex even when I run into obvious pro players the firefight still lasts a decent chunk of time. You get to learn something. Here it's just some fucker shooting from a place you had no way of detecting them in, you, once again, GET SLOWED DOWN WHILE BEING SHOT, die in 2-3 shots.

Worst FPS I've played by a long shot, and a strong contender for the worst game I've ever played.

    neutered a lot of what made source so much fun, movement being one of the main culprits. I've tried, but I cannot get into this game. Source is so much better.

    terrible reviews like ac_church and AcePhoenix's have me thinking more than a few people choose to votebomb this because they're really bad at the game lol. i'm not even very good myself, forever stuck at silver and often the bottom of my team, but it's really not hard to differentiate actual flaws in the gameplay from your own struggle to master said gameplay. no need to write disingenuously as a cope
