I came for the tactical gameplay, but I stayed for the chickens in high definition. 🐔💥

CS2 feels like the kind of sequel you get when someone asks, “How can we make Counter-Strike better?” and Valve says, “What if… we made it shinier and gave chickens the AI of a small toddler?”

Here are my pros and cons:

Pros:
✔️ Smokes are now sentient. One minute they’re covering your push, the next they’re dissolving to let you eat an AWP shot. Truly immersive.
✔️ Chickens now follow you. I named mine Harold. We died together. RIP Harold.
✔️ Graphics are so good you can finally see the fear in your enemy's eyes after a 1v5 clutch.
✔️ De_dust2 is basically the Louvre of maps at this point.

Cons:
❌ My teammate tried to trade skins mid-game. We lost the round. Thanks, Kyle.
❌ The AK recoil feels like I’m fighting a wild bear while trying to aim.
❌ Matchmaking is still matchmaking. I got paired with someone blasting "Baby Shark" in voice chat.

Final Verdict:
10/10, would rush B with Harold again. Valve truly made a game that’s less about winning and more about creating memories… of accidentally flashbanging your entire team.
