How to play CS:GO after the CS2 Change

By Labyrinth2 0

This guide will show you how to play CS:GO even after the Change to CS2. It's not entirely gone as most people have stated.

NOTE: Valve has confirmed that MacOS will not be supported for CS2 due to low market share for people using the OS compared to Windows and Linux and are eligible for a refund until December 1st, 2023. https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/73EF-08A3-0935-6369

Already out of date, unfortunately. But they replaced the csgo_demo_viewer with a csgo_legacy version in the beta menu.
