I feel like it was more fun back then when cs was simpler

csgo got too many distracting details

models of the maps alone, on dust 2 they added a bunch of cars, shadows etc 

dust in cs 1.6 has nothing besides walls and doors and boxes pretty much

and in csgo dust 2 they have likely a thousand different textures and objects

Are you sure people still play 1.6, is the game still playable, not too much hacker and thing like that ?

What about Fortnite or Overwatch for exemple ? 
They are competitor of CS:GO, even us a CS player would say no

yeah I’m sure some people still play 1.6 though

but for csgo/2 are there really any direct competitors?

3 years haven't open it but fully understand what you say, but in our world today I think they have no choice otherwise it would look too bad/old I think against competitor
