If this keeps up I'm going to sell my AK-47 for a Steam Deck.

out of nowhere but, with one finger raised aloft at all the web3 donkeys, announced that every skin from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive would be carrying over:

Point being that for most players, myself included, skins are a nice optional element to the game. For others they are the game. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this is that the value of cosmetics is often linked to, well, what they look like. The speculators who are buying into Counter-Strike skins right now in the hope of gravy later are focusing on those skins that have aesthetic elements which will or should be vastly improved in the new version of the game. That is, skins which have particularly lighting-sensitive and pearlescent finishes.

Incidentally, one of the best things about all this is it makes Dr. Disrespect look like a right dingus in shilling his upcoming NFT-based shooter.
