I thought this was a F2P game from the get-go?

And looking at the reviews, the game is still plagued with aimbotters.

Not a bad idea to make it free to play for casual gaming and upgradeable for more competitive.

CS:GO was inundated with cheaters. Too early to say if they fixed any of the issues and cs2. I want to point out that I'm not complaining about players that are better than me and calling them cheaters, I'm talking about very blatant and openly cheating using spinbot cheaters. Such a huge disappointment that they don't address this issue.

Jesus, I can't believe people still play this game and it's $15. Has steam made anything within the last 10years? Good thing they are still up and running even without making games. They need to start making their world class games again man.
I played in the early days as a halflife add on. I decided to give it a go about 2 years ago and it's still pretty entertaining. The graphics are certainly better.

Steam doesn't make CS. 😂 your post is inane.
Steam is a video game digital distribution service and storefront developed by Valve Corporation. -wiki

Valve makes cs no? So maybe it is?

According to a recent VG Insights report, Steam games market revenue reached $3.1 billion in the first half of 2022 (including the platform's fees, but excluding IAPs). This is up 3% year-over-year.Jul 26, 2022

Prime is basically needed for ranked. Way more balanced and way less hackers. Casual is pretty fun too though.

Also prime carries over fron csgo if you already have it.
