CS:GO is over a decade old and certainly isn't "killed", does the author just not want new games to be released ever? I feel like everything posted nowadays is ragebait.

I mean CSGO turned into CS2 in my steam library.

So CSGO effectively doesn't exist anymore. I say 'killed' is accurate

Yeah, so dumb from them, CS2 was not ready at all.
