This just seems odd to me. I know it’s a competitive game, and most folks will be playing with a mouse and keyboard, but it feels weird for Valve to put out a brand new game (built from scratch, at that) and not plan for this.

I am a game developer and can tell you that bringing a game from unreal 4 to unreal 5 is pretty straight forward, you can disable the new features like lumen and get the same result. Some moves are harder. Like unity to godot or unreal is a huge change but source to source 2 doesn’t seem like a huge move. They didn’t rewrite the entire engine for it. That said they did replace and rewrite a lot of things. The gameplay logic is generally still the same code.
I guess that makes sense. Thanks for the insight!
