How to downgrade a Steam game
Just keep it simple and stick with the latest updates, folks. Developers update games for a reason - to fix bugs or add new content. Unless you're looking for a specific mod that only works with an older version, you're probably better off enjoying the improvements.

Downgrading a Steam game isn't a straight path since Steam automatically keeps your game library up to date with the latest versions. However, a handy workaround involves using the 'Steam Console' to access and download previous versions of a game, if you know the specific 'depot' and 'manifest' IDs for the version you want. Websites and communities dedicated to game modding often share these IDs for popular games.
I personally managed to downgrade a game once by finding an old game backup on my external HDD. Restored the game files from there and kept Steam offline to stop it from updating. It's a bit of a hassle and won't work for everyone, but if you're desperate, backups are something to consider.
