can somebody tell me why CS:GO is so popular?
Because the way I see it, it's just a repetitive shooter with a toxic community.
because you can make a decent amount of money out of it
>toxic community
it's the same thing with any competitive game, fuck off back to reddit.
its fun
WE GOT YOUR NUMBER
Because its a very balanced competitive shooter with a relatively high skill ceiling and a long history and large community.

You get people like these throwing a tantrum left and right in almost every match.

Because you can hack and cheat at the professional level, and shittalk anyone who accuses you of it into shameful silence.

>high skill ceiling
It takes ~2 weeks of playing to consistently get headshots, then the rest of your time is spent memorizing where to throw grenades.

The skill ceiling has more to do with teamwork than personal performance.
I've been playing it, bought it, and still wonder this.
It's not even that good. It's not even that fun. Shit, it's not even that varied. And GO is the same thing as Source. I believe it's just because there's some money into it, because as a game is generic and samey, not that fun to look at, and all the weapons feel the same, except the AWP which stands out for bullshittery alone.
