Why is counter strike (video game) so popular in the nordics and baltics?

I don't think that's the whole answer. Seems to be a cultural preference of sorts.

It will look similar for other games
You are overrepresented on the internet in general
The real metric would be share of <game> players out of all gamers in <country>

LAN culture. It's cold and dark here so your mom couldn't bitch about you having to be outside for half of the year.

Strong PC gaming culture I reckon. Feel like nobody really gave two shits about Nintendo products here past the NES. Either you played on the PC or on PS1/PS2. I remember back in grade school even normie jocks would get hype for a quick match of counter-strike.

CS 1.6 was extremely popular because it ran on toasters, I still play 1.6 with thirdies because I don't like newer counter strikes, CSS while not good or popular had the most fun and bizzare gameplay modes concerning zombies, surfing, jailbreak and etc so it was good.

There are dedicated instant respawn de_dust 2 servers where a bunch of Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian boomers hang out just drinking beer and talking about work and family over the mic, one day the Ukrainian said he is logging off because there is a bombing raid in his region, both extremely funny and sad.
