And that’s why Gabe has a new yacht with a fuckin’ submarine.

Goddamn money printer he’s got there. No hate, I just can’t believe the platform that we had to install to play Counter Strike (1.6?) has become the juggernaut it has.

God damn did I hate when they introduced that extra fucking bullshit that I had to install just to play CS!

Back then Steam was a downgrade.

I wholeheartedly agree, however we are the users who had to suffer through that so they could create what it is today.

I can’t tell you how many times steam would need an update when I wanted to play CS. Some of those nights I just gave up because the stream update was so freaking slow.

Gif of legacy steam attempting to update, and reverting to 1% constantly throughout the process and finally giving up, similar to exactly how it was in 2004 when steam had a slow update process

Bro, does it still work? I can’t imagine it will but if so, give the magnet link.

Can we still play it? I’ll 1v1 you later today if we can.

With that weird kick on the jump animation and the totally stupid crouch animation.

I think the disk I have has 1.5 on it but I’d have to check. I’m pretty sure that one is on Archive though.
