CS:GO Review
In my years of playing this game I have learned only a few things. First of all, tick rate doesn't matter if your enemies are lead pumping terminator bunnies that use a computer with better aim than Chuck Norris. And secondly, when you poored your heart and soul into this game to become better at it only to get ♥♥♥♥♥♥ over time and time again, it is 100% acceptable to blaim the game and its faulty mechanics. Enough jokes though, let me get into my review. With most competative FPS titles you have to learn to deal with a few flaws. With some games it might be some spotty hit boxes, or some laggy servers, but none compare to the fps child of valve. Take counter strike back to its roots, and it is a great FPS title. One of the best ever actually, but the title before us today is not the glorious title I am praising. Counter-Striike: Global Offensive is the aftermath of a game that has been deprived of proper development and care in exchange for quick cash. Valve threw in the towl for developing and fixing this game when it was in its prime, that was years ago. Nowadays they are looking for anyway they can squeeze every last penny out of it. The skin trade market is what made counter strike a global phenomenon, but early game mechanics and competative nature are what kepts its players coming back. Unfortunatly Valve chose to take the easy path, rather than the path less traveled. Instead of putting the game's development first on their list, they opted to build their skin network. This was great for Valve from a business standpoint, because it gave them another huge cash flow, but it was devastating for the long term life of the game. Valve is still around today becuase of players that still cling on to what the game used to be, and those that join in to mess with others, and troll. The neglegence of Vavle towards one of the world's most competative games has caused it to die out. Even though the competative league for CSGO exist, it is quickly being beaten by games like Overwatch and Rainbow Six Siege. This brings me to my overall suggestion for this game. 3 or 4 years ago I would not have hesistated to tell you to get this game, but sadly now it is just a shell of what it once was. If you are looking for an FPS to take serious and develope your skills at, look elsewhere. CSGO is no longer a healthy place to do so. If you are looking to join CSGO to meme around and get some laughs, then by all means join the others that do the same and make up over 75% of the games current player base. This game is not at all what it used to be. I hope that valve brings us another addition in the franchise, and learns from their mistakes, instead of trying to make a quick buck.

Also I got VAC banned for taking the game serious (no hacking or anything) so 0/10 would not recommend.
