Valve seems to intend on just releasing the original CS:GO as an (unsupported) title with community run servers


They could have just... kept the existing game listing as-is (but unsupported) and released CS2 as a separate game listing.


Why? Not trying to be difficult, but what would they get out of this?


Game preservation, options for people who can’t play CS2, keeping a clear chronology of the game’s history.

Replacing CSGO with CS2 is the oddity.


Most players can just go to betas/versions in the steam program prefrences and download the version they prefer and play.
