This just seems odd to me. I know it’s a competitive game, and most folks will be playing with a mouse and keyboard, but it feels weird for Valve to put out a brand new game (built from scratch, at that) and not plan for this.

      Preface: I am no game developer, but I am a software developer

      This comment does not make sense to me. There is no “simply” bringing any game to any other engine. Doing this is a huge undertaking and I can’t imagine not basically starting from scratch, saving the art assets and bits of pieces of the code (given it’s written in the same language).

      CS2 was not built from scratch, it’s a large update to CSGO

      this confused the absolute shit out of me
