    because source wasn’t a sequel to them, just an engine port. Why counterstrike 2 is called 2, imo, just because Source 2

    Being a new game in a series doesn’t necessarily mean that its the next numbered game, especially to valve. Technically speaking, the other counterstrike project (Condition Zero, single player content) is also a thing.

      As someone who played lots of cs1.6 let me tell you that cs source was extremely different from cs1.6. In no way was it just an engine port, you are talking out of your ass.

      They should have called it CS: Source 2, then. The game hasn’t changed enough to be considered a sequel. They made the same amount of improvements to this one as they always have in the last. Doesn’t make sense to call it a full-blown sequel.

      They probably figured that if Blizzard could get away with calling it Overwatch 2, despite being the same game, they probably could too.
