The amount of people playing is really the only thing that lets Quake down at the moment. Quake with other people of a similar skill level to you is possibly the most fun you can have on your PC, there just aren't enough. It's a shame really, because I think that the interest would be there if they made another game in the style of Quake 1 with an atmospheric singleplayer and an awesome multiplayer: DOOM got insanely popular after the reboot, but id seem to have abandoned Quake now. Still gonna continue to express my wish for another Quake 1 game whenever I possibly can in the hope that someone will see it and take note.

I tried to get into Quake with both QL and QC, after hearing all the praise it got from Zy, but it's pretty... unamusing to play against people incomparably above your skill level, while your every second thought is "I could rip these fuckers to shreds in CS". (10+ years of experience in that series.) I don't want to suffer through hours upon hours of frustration, getting dominated be everyone else, while I learn the maps, item locations, timings, movement skills, etc... just so I could finally be an average player, who is "only" 2 times worse, instead of 10 times, than a vet. And don't even get me started on playing against bots... sure, you could do that to learn, but what do you get then? Shame on you if u get killed, because they are... just bots. No sense of accomplishment if u frag them either, since they are... just bots. Even if you win, you can't win. All that, while I could simply go back to CS, Battlefield, Krunker, or any other game I enjoy, and just have fun. So yes, I'm sad that Quake is dying, because I did have a couple of fun games where I was on servers with beginners, just like me, and I witnessed the appeal the game has... but at the same time, I can understand why newcomers leave after just a short while.

I would definitely say that Quake was just as influential as Doom if not more for many reasons: 1. Quake was one of (if not THE first) true 3D engines that didn't require hacks like the build engine. 2. It was one of the first games to introduce true 3d mouselook (later perfected in GLQuake/QuakeWorld) 3. Quake was the first to have 3D weapons and enemies, with decent pathfinding for the time. 4. GLQuake w/ Quakeworld (becoming GLquakeWorld) was the foundation for 3D accelerated FPS games and TCP/IP internet Deathmatch 5. Quake was the first game to host Team Fortress (even though Team Fortress Classic is the Half-life rendition of the game) 6. First game to have 3D liquids that you could swim in (and take damage). 7. Engine that started the foundation for Half-life. As well as many other licensed Activision games (like Modern Warfare). 8. Engine that first started baked lighting for textures instead of sector values 9. One of the first FPS games that supported up to 32 players (GLQuakeWorld). Over a decade before this became mega-popular on consoles. 10. One of the top games to drive gfx accelaration card sales and computer upgrades. And probably cable modem services. 11. Responsible for single-handedly starting the speed running online community (speeddemos website/QuakeDoneQuick/Etc). Thus you could say even responsible for partly inspiring Games Done Quick/SGDQ 12. Started Quake Con, still going I believe 13. Music from NIN, one of the best gaming soundtracks (and musical ambient soundtracks) at the time. Trent Reznor has awards now. 14. Responsible for rocket jumping. 15. Responsible for many mod communities, and editing software that got sold in retail stores simply because the game was popular. 16. Bunny jumping. -thx Rickard :) I'd love to see the original quake rebooted using the new Doom 2016/eternal engine.

YES. The original Quake was the best, for me. I *loved* that world - the mix of futuristic technology and medieval architecture - space marines vs. eldritch horrors. Stumbling round in the dark, up to your waist in murky water, and *BANG* - part of the wall drops down suddenly to reveal a dimensional shambler gathering lightning, and a pair of fiends leaping at you. The ogre with the chainsaw and the grenade launcher. The sound of the knights drawing their sword. Zombies rising from the mud, groaning and throwing body parts at you. Trent Reznor's creepy industrial sound track, with children crying and voices whispering. Not just secret areas with hidden treasures, but whole secret levels too. THAT was Quake. What Tim Willits said in the interview about Quake having an identity crisis was absolutely right. Technically brilliant, Quake 2 was amazing, but it just wasn't Quake; the whole humans vs. aliens thing is a trope that has been done to death. What the original Quake brought was one heavily-armed human vs the hordes of the elder gods in the H.P. Lovecraft universe, and I don't think that's been done before or since. I've said many times - id Software should remaster the original Quake, and maybe give it a proper sequel - like they've just done with Doom 2016 and its sequel. I know I'd buy it, and I know I wouldn't be alone in doing so.

@@lordofdouchebag2161 From 'Masters of Doom'; Tim Willits was initially recommended by American McGee to the team that are developing Strife. McGee was a once prominent Doom modder/mapper. And got hired for Doom II because of it. So he kind of wanted to do the same for someone. But Tim quickly got transferred to idSoftware to help work on Quake. Initially, chummied-up with Romero to learn mapping tricks, but then quickly flipped and brown-nosed hard towards Carmack during the time Carmack and Romero started falling out. Then, according to Sandy, during development of Quake II, Tim pretty much pushed American McGee under the bus for some reason(mainly, get him in trouble with John Carmack who's pretty much the company head when Romero left), eventually having McGee fired(for me, American McGee's biography itself is a heartbreaking one). But my personal favorite story, is the one where he starts claiming on some interviews that he's the "founder/inventor of multiplayer-only maps". Pointing to some scrap/draft maps on Quake as proof. This is pretty funny, as John Romero pointed out, Rise of the Triad came a year earlier than Quake. And Marathon few months earlier than RotT. Both games having MP-exclusive maps. id's decision to create MP maps for Quake were influenced by those games, and even before Tim got into the team, Romero himself already made drafts and hand drawn sketches for some MP-exclusive maps. Again, Romero himself isn't even claiming credit on being first, as he admitted, he was more inspired from his friend, Tom Hall and RotT. Meanwhile, it was American McGee who was already prototyping functional MP maps for Quake. So Tim instead, settles/compromises on instead taking credit for "designing Quake 1's first/shareware episode"...which John also noted as an odd call; The first two maps there where Romero's(including the starting, difficulty/world selection map), and the last three where McGee's. To claim sole credit on the whole episode is...weird, to say the least.

I don’t know if any remember this but Quake 2 was released around the same time that the Voodoo 2 graphics accelerator card was hitting the stores. I bought both and it was a religious moment! Lol at that time 64 meg was cutting edge technology. Q2 was actually designed for GPU’s. And it was the first 3D game where you could use the mouse to look around. Up to that point it was the four direction keys. Just an awesome experience
@RocketToTheMoose5 жыл бұрын
You could look around back in Quake 1 by setting the console command +mouselook. In fact, that's how I played Quake Test, aka, QTest1, which came out slightly before Quake 1 did. I remember my friend had got a 3DFX card and used it to play Quake 1, but I didn't see what the big deal was. But then I saw how the Quake 2 demo looked on a GPU, and I had to get one!

I would easily take Romero's eccentricity over Tim Willit's dishonesty any day of the weak. For all his failure, at least Romero hasn't tried to make the claim he invented death-match maps to push Quake Champions and routinely been called out by his peers on trying to steal other's work. Seriously, go read up some of the things American McGee has to say about working with Mr. Willits.
@zogmorp5 жыл бұрын
according to Romero, he was wanting to make something very different from Doom. But Carmack took so long to get the game engine done that when it was finally finished, everybody on the development team (except Romero) was feeling lazy and uninspired and just wanted to make an upgraded Doom style game but slightly different. This (apathy towards creativity) is actually what drove Romero to leave ID and start the game company ION Storm and start working on Daikatana.
