I remember when games launched and generally could be expected to run, because easy patching wasn't a thing yet. They had to make sure that the games worked.

I don't like that this has moved to "well, it's just the first day, week, month, give them time to fix the game." No! When the game releases and people pay money for it, it should work!

We are talking about Counter Strike. Nothing has fundamentally changed in 2 decades.

We are talking about Counter Strike 2, a complete rewrite of the game's code for a new game engine. EVERYTHING has fundamentally changed over the last year.

To be fair, at the time games were made to target a single system, not a myriad of them.
