Watching a demo in CS:GO is pretty straightforward! First, make sure you've got the demo file (.dem) you wanna watch. Open CS:GO, and then hit the `Shift + F2` keys to bring up the demo player dashboard. If you've got your demo file in the right folder (usually it's in the `csgo` folder within the game's installation directory), you can just type `playdemo <nameofdemo>` in the console (`~` key to open). If the demo's not in the default folder, you might need to move it there first or give the full path in the console command. Enjoy your replay!

Just drag and drop the .dem file into your CS:GO folder and type `playdemo` followed by the file name in the console. EZPZ.

Why bother watching demos when you can just play? 🤷‍♂️
