CS:GO Review
CS:GO is a really fun and a great game, and it becomes a lot more fun if you have friends to play with. It is quite rare to find good and not toxic teammates if you play alone, but it doesn"t mean it never happens. I"ve gotten a lot of friends through this game, that I"ve even met IRL. Besides that, this game has gone through a lot of changes, and only for the better. The things I"ve notice playing this game throughout the years is that it has become a lot harder for new players. Because of the influx of "smurf" accounts and cheaters. And with the ban-waves of cheaters the rank system has become flawed. People from different levels of skill can be playing in the same rank. That"s why i recommend playing competitive games on 3rd party sites (Tip: start with the in game match making first though).

If you want to get good at the game, like fantastic, it will take you a lot of time and it"s going to be frustrating without a doubt.
If you just want to have fun with friends, go ahead, not much is going to stop you then.

Overall there are still existing issues that you have to face at least every so often, and that is cheaters. That is one of the things that ruin CS:GO the most. The thing is that cheaters have become a lot smarter than they were before. They have figured out the best ways of not getting banned, which makes the population of cheaters grow. It"s not that cheaters never get banned, it"s just that maybe the cheaters you will play against won"t necessarily get banned each time.

For the positives though, it"s a real fun game when you can see your self progressively get better and better over time, and learning tricks to better your self at the game. And playing 5v5 isn"t all you can do. There are a lot community servers with "mini games" that are fun to play when waiting for your friends to get on, that even in some cases will make you better at the game (for instance "KZ" a parkour like maps, that can get you better at movement).
Friendships, as i said before, there is a big chance to make friends in this game. Which in my opinion is really cool, and it may help you to get better at the game if you play with the same people, and ranking up together is one of the most fun I"ve had in this game.

"Going pro/semi-pro", there is a chance that some of you reading this, might want to get pro at the game. It is possible, but it"s definitely not for everyone. It takes a lot of time to be a part of a team. I"ve tried it, and was almost semiprofessional. But it"s like having a job. So it may take out a lot of fun out of the game, if you are anything like me. So if you have the right mindset you might go pro who knows.
