  • Piranesi is an awesome map from the history of counter-strike. The creative process that went into the creation of this map is legitimately amazing, and it's creator deserves to be better known. However, despite how interesting this map is, the most interesting thing about it is its strange relation to another counter-strike map that is much newer...

    im not going to lie, i feel like my ability to speak into a microphone was still partially coming back to me while recording this, but I don't think its too bad. Next weeks video I feel that I am more well-spoken. Glad to be back though, feels like a weight off of my chest :')

      first time viewer here, although I mightve watched a video or two before (Penguin feels familiar), if you wouldnt have said anything at the end of the video I never wouldve guessed youve had a break or whatever. You are wellspoken, felt natural and like you've been doing videos like this for years. I enjoyed it, took me awhile before remembering that I've played Piranesi as a kid.

      @hrsmrt9292 11 месяцев назад +1

      De_Chateau are bit much T sided map since that one of the bombsite are so close with T_Spawn, De_Piranesi, De_Prodigy (map design edits needed) and De_Tides are better and should be added on CS:GO and CS2, if they wan't to, add some other underrated gameplay hostage map tho such as Cs_Havana and Cs_Siege (Cs_siege creator passed away around 2000's). As a form of nostalgic recollections, as for Siege map, a memorials and form of respects of deceased creator.

    I remember that Piranesi was always a hard map for me to play on, even as a casual player, which is probably because my favorite weapon to use was the shotgun.
    It was a map that you saw played a lot, though, and I was always one to try and vote for maps that aren't the usual favorites like Dust II, Inferno or Office.
    Been so long since I played, though, that I hardly remember any of the names. One that I always found fun, even if way too big and unbalanced, were the Rats maps.

    growing up playing source, the best part about the entire game was option... you had endless amounts of games & maps to choose from and it left that unknown feeling untouched which i think brings excitement and pleasure. there are so so many maps i could mention like de_russka, de_cpl_mill, de_season etc etc.. but the point is a lot of the old cal & cevo maps and many more should already be a thing in csgo and i wish valve knew how much of an importance it is for not only new players but the long time veterans.

    Canals is one of my favorite maps. Not for its layout, but for its setting. Venice is such an interesting and beautiful city. I've spent a little longer than a week there, many years prior to this map being unveiled, and I really felt like I was at the Piazza San Marco, staring at the Doge's Palace again when I finally played it.

    • @cheesypoohalo
      @cheesypoohalo Год назад +2

      Honestly I love everything about Canals apart from the big, wideopen A site. Mid and B are great fun, if they remade that last third of the map I think it would be far more fun to play. It's a huge shame Valve gave up on it, Canals was way more fun than Ancient, which is just corridors and boxes, and feels to me like a Valorant map.
